Some Written by Christopher O’Rourke Pushing up the daisies gets a little bit closer With every lonely summer day It doesn’t matter if you’re red, white and blue, babe A little bit crooked, straight or gay I don’t care if you’ve been foolin’ around some Or you were born yesterday And it don’t matter if you work for a living Or you’re so rich that you just sleep all day And if you haven’t found the right fella Don’t give up It’s gonna get a lot better if you fall in love Things’ll be a lot sweeter after you messed up I never met a fine idea That didn’t work out right The sun’s been coming up for a million years now And later on she still slips out of sight Honey you and me should make some babies We can stay up all night I am a woman but I’m not a lady Can’t really see you can we turn on the light? And if you haven’t found your one and only Don’t give up It’s gonna be a lot better if you’re gettin’ some Things’ll be a lot brighter after you wake up And if you haven’t found your one and only Don’t give up It’s gonna be a lot better if you’re gettin’ some Things’ll be a lot brighter after you wake up I don’t know if you don’t care I don’t care if you don’t mind But I think that this could work out for a little while I don’t know and I don’t care But I guess if you were mine Well I think that this could work out for a long time

Without U. 03:44
I hate you ‘cause you left me home You left me all alone Then you went and turned off your phone That stupid phone What did I do to make you mad? I never did nothin’ bad I was probably the best you had The best you ever had But I wanted you more than you wanted me, don’t it sometimes work out that way? You wanted me, didn’t you, a little bit, maybe on another day If I love you ‘cause sometimes we love those who hurt us Is that okay? (No) Is that okay? What did I do to make you mad? I can see through that fake you sad Ever since you were my undergrad My sweet little undergrad I never met someone real Who knew exactly the way I feel Who knew exactly just what to steal Who knew just what to steal But I wanted you more than you wanted me, don’t it sometimes work out that way? You wanted me, didn’t you, a little bit, maybe on another day Without you blue skies go gunship gray Without you I wasn’t looking up anyway (He wasn’t looking up anyway) I wanted you more than you ever knew, but I never knew what to say You wanted me more than I thought you did but just not enough to stay Without you blue skies go gunship gray Without you I wasn’t looking up anyway Without you, the sun just fades away Without you Without you Without you Without you Without you
