Only One lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

I'll open up my head awhile

Its been dead for years

Must've been a victim of my peers

One is for my happiness

The other for my health

The last is something bigger than myself

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one to say

I'm talkin' to myself again

I'll just start a fight

And nobody can prove me wrong, I'm right

Anti-hero idol with a suicide excuse

A thousand other suckers who try and fill your shoes

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one to say

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one to say

Little pictures in my head, turnin' inside-out again

Cuz fuckin' up takes practice, I feel I'm well rehearsed

Because the past is a bully and the future's even worse

Tell me what you fear cuz I can feel it like a curse

Well, you used to be a folk singer, now you're just a joke singer

Ain't no smokin' dope singer, swingin' from a rope singer

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one

I ain't the only one to say

Somethin' Bad lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

Well, they're shutting all the shops up on the avenue

And they're holding up for cheaper Chinese food

If I'm old then I would have a tainted attitude

Why'd those neon lights all lose their common blue?

And it's not like me to feel so important

And it's not like me to go and wreck your day

And I never thought I'd see it so exploited

Ah, but I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

Oh yes, I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

Well I see her walking round the block till six a.m.

The thermometer's at minus five degrees

And I'm wondering where all that hard earned money goes

To her head or towards a shred of dignity

And it's not like me to feel so important

And it's not like me to go and wreck your day

And I never thought I'd see it so exploited

Ah, but I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

Oh yes, I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

And it's not like me to feel so important

And it's not like me to go and wreck your day

And I never thought I'd see it so exploited

Ah, but I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

Oh yes, I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

Yes, I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

Oh yes, I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

Ain't That Unusual lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

Could you talk to me

Honestly

Cuz I never heard a word you said now

And I ain't just being mean

Cuz all we are is what we're told

And most of that's been lies

It's like a made-for-TV movie

And I just blew my line

Someday you never made it Maybe you never will

Hey, you never made it

Now, ain't that unusual?

Now I feel unknown

And it's safe that way

Are you too bored to care or too dumb to be scared, now

Now what's that supposed to mean?

I'm burned out on some empty reasons

Another waste of time

It's somethin' that I wish I'd said

But I don't think it'd rhyme

Someday you never made it

Maybe you never will

Hey, you never made it

Now, ain't that unusual?

See I'd love to be you

At least then I'd see you

Sorry I put them words in your mouth

But you wouldn't talk to me

You're everything I want and haven't got

I'm sick of everything I'm not

Put my heavy coat on for a while

It's freezing in the corner of my mind

Someday you never made it

Maybe you never will

Hey, you never made it

Now, ain't that unusual?

So Long lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

Don't take much lookin' back to know I took my coffee black then

Nothing's different now, but nothin' seems the same and it's alright

Your optimistic views, your hundred dollar running shoes and

Carpel tunnel syndrome, we all had a laugh about it

I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all

So long

Oh so long

Oh so long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

Don't take much lookin' back to know I faked that heart attack then

Nothing's different now, but nothin' seems the same and it's alright

You always spoke the truth from circa disco Abba boots and

All that showbiz talk, oh we all had a laugh about it

I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all

So long

Oh so long

Oh so long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

Oh so long

Oh so long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

I gotta get back to where I belong

Long

Oh so long

Oh so long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

So long

Oh so long

Oh so long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

Eyes Wide Open lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

I'm a fortunate son of a fortunate son

Livin' large on the wrong side of town

Too many friends and the fun never ends

Drinkin' and hangin' around

I wanna rule the world, wanna swallow it whole

At least I could kick it all down

I wanna kick it all down

Eyes wide open, I can't see

Eyes wide open, what you mean

Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

My eyes wide open, I can't see

Eyes wide open, what you mean

Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

I don't take the bus and I never walk too far

The furthest I got was my own backyard

A fist full of cash that somebody else earned

Send me some more when it all got burned

I wanna take control, wanna make it all mine

At least I could kick it all down

I wanna' kick it all down

Eyes wide open, I can't see

Eyes wide open, what you mean

Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

My eyes wide open, I can't see

Eyes wide open, what you mean

Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

Never ever ever

Never ever ever

Never ever ever

Never ever ever

I get what I want if I make up my mind

I'm turnin' you inside out

I wanna rule the world, wanna swallow it whole

I think I'll just kick it all down

I wanna kick it all down

Eyes wide open, I can't see

Eyes wide open, what you mean

Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

My eyes wide open, I can't see

Eyes wide open, what you mean

Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be

Eyes wide open

[fade out]

Disconnected lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

I don't remember

It doesn't ring a bell

And when you call me everything is swell

I tend to forget about the times we had

And now it doesn't matter cuz I feel so sad

I've been disconnected

Someone pulled the plug

Oh, you're so distant

Nothing's come along, yeah

We've paid the price and now we're both alone

And if you call me, you'll find me home

I've found another, someone to take your place

Now if you don't mind, please get outta of my face

I've been disconnected

Someone pulled the plug

Oh, you're so distant

Nothin's come along, yeah

Cuz, I've been disconnected

Someone pulled the plug

Oh, you're so distant

Nothing's come along

Slave Girl lyrics - Goo Goo Dolls

Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know

I drag her around wherever I go

This little woman drives me insane

She's tied to my ankle with a ball and chain

For sixteen years, she's been hangin' around

Tryin' to bury me in a hole in the ground

Well, I think it's time that I even the score

There's only room for one in this cage of yours

Don't save me when I startin' to drown

Don't use me when you don't want me around

Just be my slave girl, cuz that's all I need

So take a little step back to the stone age with me

Go!

Well I hear a strange noise as I lie in my bed

I feel a lotta water drippin' on my head

I look around tried to see through my hair

You left me alone, but do you think I care?

Cuz you moved me when I was takin' my time

You abused me when I'm outta line

You tried to warn me of the danger sign

So watch out!

Go!

Well, you got me in the bondage of another age

You drive me to distraction in a primitive way

I can't control my instincts when I hear her say

Just come around and see me if you lose your way

So join my chain gang, play along with me

I'll be your caveman, it's basic as can be

I'm not insane, man, I'm just outta my tree
