Pink

***************

I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started

Get this party started on a Saturday night
Everybody’s waiting for me to arrive
Sendin’ out the message to all of my friends
We’ll be looking flashy in my Mercedes Benz
I got lot of style, check my gold diamond rings
I can go for miles if you know what I mean
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started

Pumping up the volume, breaking down to the beat
Cruisin’ through the west side
We’ll be checkin’ the scene
Boulevard is freakin’ as I’m comin’ up fast
I’ll be burnin’ rubber, you’ll be kissin’ my ass
Pull up to the bumper, get out of the car
License plate says Stunner #1 Superstar

I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
Get this party started

Making my connection as I enter the room
Everybody’s chilling as I set up the groove
Pumpin’ up the volume with this brand new beat
Everybody’s dancing and they’re dancing for me
I’m your operator, you can call anytime
I’ll be your connection to the party line

I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
Get this party started
Get this party started right now
Get this party started
Get this party started
Get this party started right now

SECRETS

***************

What do we conceal? What do we reveal?
Make that decision every day
What is wrong with me, it’s what’s wrong with you
There’s just so much I wanna say

I like to make-believe with you
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
That we always speak the truth…ish
I like how we pretend the same
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Play this silly little game, hey!

I’ve got some things to say
‘Cause there’s a lot that you don’t know
It’s written on my face, it’s gonna be hard to swallow
(Everybody’s got a secret)
I got some things to say
(Everybody’s got a secret)
‘Cause there’s a lot that you don’t know
(Everybody’s got a secret)
It’s written on my face
(Everybody’s got a secret)

I let the walls come down
I let the monster out, and it’s coming after me
Do you feel exposed where it hurts the most?
Can you wear it on your sleeve

I like to make-believe with you
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
That we always speak the truth…ish
I like how we pretend the same
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Play this silly little game, hey!

I’ve got some things to say
‘Cause there’s a lot that you don’t know
It’s written on my face, it’s gonna be hard to swallow
(Everybody’s got a secret)
I got some things to say
(Everybody’s got a secret)
‘Cause there’s a lot that you don’t know
(Everybody’s got a secret)
It’s written on my face
(Everybody’s got a secret)

Put it in the closet, lock the doors
Wondering which one is worse
Is it mine or is it yours
Put it in the closet, lock the doors
Wondering which one is worse
I’ll show mine if you show yours
I’ll show mine if you show yours, hey, hey, hey!

(Everybody’s got a secret)
I got some things to say
(Everybody’s got a secret)
‘Cause there’s a lot that you don’t know
(Everybody’s got a secret)
It’s written on my face
(Everybody’s got a secret)
It’s gonna be hard to swallow

Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Everybody’s got a secret
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Da, da, da, da, do, do, do
Everybody’s got a secret

NUMB

***************

No sleep, no sex for you from your ex-girlfriend
I was too deep, I can’t let you go and just jump
in
At times I would push my feelings aside to let
you feel
I’m novicane I’m numb and nothing’s real

Like the coldest winter, I am frozen from you

I was weak before now you made me so numb
I can’t feel much for you anymore
I gave you my all, my baby
I’m numb, numb, numb

But the tears were silent inside you see
But the tears were silent inside you see

I laid there quiet, watched you have your way
with me
I might have cried, the tears were silent inside
you see
You called me names, made me feel like I was dumb

I didn’t feel a thing and now I’m gone, gone,
gone

Like a battered child I got used to your pain
But you know its cuz

I was weak before now you made me so numb
I can’t feel much for you anymore
I gave you my all, my baby
I’m numb, numb, numb

I was weak before now you made me so numb
I can’t feel much for you anymore
I gave you my all, my baby
I’m numb, numb, numb

Don’t feel a thing, don’t feel the pain
Numb, numb, numb
Said

I was weak before now you made me so numb
I can’t feel much for you anymore
I gave you my all, my baby
I’m numb, numb, numb

I was weak for
Said now I’m numb, numb, numb
No, no, no, no

TRY

***************

Ever wonder about what he’s doing
How it all turned to lies
Sometimes I think that it’s better to never ask why

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
You’ve gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try

Eh, eh, eh

Funny how the heart can be deceiving
More than just a couple times
Why do we fall in love so easy
Even when it’s not right

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
You’ve gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try

Ever worried that it might be ruined
And does it make you wanna cry?
When you’re out there doing what you’re doing
Are you just getting by?
Tell me are you just getting by by by

Where there is desire
There is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame
Someone’s bound to get burned
But just because it burns
Doesn’t mean you’re gonna die
You’ve gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try
You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try

You gotta get up and try try try
Gotta get up and try try try

BARBIES

***************

Another day, another sin
Another day I’m late again
Oh, just like that my money’s spent
Where did it all go?
Another night, another heart
Another one leaves in the dark
And I’m searching for my counterpart
Where did it all go?

And I lock every single door
And I look behind me even more
Now turned into someone that I swore
I would never be

I wish I could go back to playing barbies in my room
They never say that you gotta grow up, quite this soon
How fast things change, and now I’m here and all I wanna do
Is go back to playing barbies in my room

I see it on my father’s face
Another line that comes with age
I know that time will have its way
Where did it all go?
They say that things were simple then
Although I don’t remember when
I wanna know what happens next
Where do we all go?

And I lock every single door
And I look behind me even more
And now turned into someone that I swore I would never be

I wish I could go back to playing barbies in my room
They never say that you gotta grow up, quite this soon
How fast things change, and now I’m here and all I wanna do
Is go back to playing barbies in my room

Pink canopies and grass-stained knees
Putting fireflies in a jar
Getting home before it’s dark
Scotch-taping posters on my wall
Rolling pixie sticks to smoke
Couldn’t wait ’til I was older

And I wish I could go back to playing barbies in my room
They never say that you gotta grow up, quite this soon
How fast things change, and now I’m here and all I wanna do
Is go back to playing barbies in my room
Back to playing barbies
I wish that I could go back
I wish that I could go back
I wish that I could go back
Back to playing barbies in my room

SPLIT PERSONALITY

***************

I do not trust, so I cannot love
(can’t no man be trusted)
Oh no no no
And I would not dare to open up
(this life of yours is dusted Pink)
Well my rent’s past due and now my car won’t start, I hate the bus
(well aren’t you glad you have somebody to talk to)
Tell me what do they see when they look at me
Do they see my many personalities

Can you help me
Does anybody hear me
Can they even see me
This is my reality, oh oh

(can it be my turn now, is it my turn Pink)
Said I’ll say it again, you’re my only friend
(I protect you from the world, I basically protect you from yourself)
Though I can’t go on, I’m not satisfied with this being the end
(this is just the beginning)
Tell me why can’t I just reach up and simply touch the sky
Tell me why can’t I spread my arms and fly and fly and fly
Tell me why can’t I say this, why can’t I do that
Tell me what do they want from me, tell me how to act

So I’m putting it all on the table
(tell em’ Pink)
You don’t know me well enough to label me, sick, or even disturbed
When you break it down I’m just two girls
Trying to blend, trying to vibe
(trying)
Trying to live just one life
(so hard)
Everybody’s got insanities…I got a split personality
Tell me why can’t I just reach up and simply touch the sky
(why can’t you)
Tell me why can’t I spread my arms and fly and fly and fly
(you can)
Tell me why can’t I say this, why can’t I do that
(just do it)
Tell me what do they want from me, tell me how to act
(I can’t, I can’t)

Can you help me
(talk to me, talk to me, don’t ignore me, I can’t take it)
Do you hear me
Do you see me everytime
(oh calm down, it’s not that serious, we’ll be just fine without them)
It’s all mine…it’s my reality…it’s just too much for me
(you’re my friend, you’re my friend…Pink!…Pink!)
