1.	All My Friends are Turning Parisian 01:21	lyrics	buy track
All my friends are putting me down with the crazy things they do. I say “hello” I say “good bye” and they just say “au revoir(do)” And it’s making me mad so mad mad It’s making me mad so mad so mad so mad Mr. Doctor I think i got amnesia cause all my friends are turning Parisian. Invite ’em to my house to drink some brew and watch old Roger Maris They got a corkscrew and a bottle of champagne And they’re singing “I love Paris” “In the summer, winter, springtime and fall” “When it likes to sizzle” “When always drizzles” Mr. Doctor I think i got amnesia cause all my friends are turning Parisian. Brian changed his name is Jacque And Virgil’s got shit on his socks John says he’s doing “tres bon” eating finger lickin’ “chickqueon” And it’s making me mad so mad mad It’s making me mad so mad mad so mad Mr. Doctor I think i got amnesia cause all my friends are turning Parisian.

She's so divine. Turpentine. A pulp emission, a used transmission. A cloudy day by the bay Talking about elite Manilla, alright. Green foam. All alone. Trailer home, it's home grown, Crow bone, chromosome, Talking about baby's in black, alright. She said she was from the elite, (Elite!) She said it, she said it all night, (All night!) She said she was from the elite, (Elite!) She said it. (Now! 1-2-3-4!) She's so divine. Turpentine. A pulp emission, a used transmission. A cloudy day by the bay Talking about elite Manilla, alright. Honky Tonk! [x3]
3.	Bright Lights 02:22	lyrics	buy track
The night is dark, the rain comes down. My baby's driving on the backside of town. I know she'll be here, no need to fear. Anticipating because I'm waiting for those Bright lights Coming down the street Coming to get me, Yeah only me. Well I've been waiting all of the day. And now it's dark and baby's on her way. Her engine's roaring, full steam ahead. She's driving me crazy, outside my head. I'm talking 'bout those bright lights Coming down the street Coming to get me, Yeah only me. Staring out my window, shutters are wide open, Staring at the moon, baby will be here soon. I'm talking 'bout those bright lights Coming down the street Coming to get me, Yeah only me. Well I'm a' talking 'bout those bright lights... [x4]
4.	Everybody's Baby 02:34	lyrics	buy track
I sit at home with my head in hand and it lingers, Why does my baby got a ring on her every finger? One from the neighbor and two from the boy next door, Three four and five from the guys from the defensive line. Mother better talk to your daughter, 'Cause she is everybody's baby, She's everybody's girl. She's everybody's baby, She's everybody's girl. I take her to the football game and everybody knows her name. 5 Goodyear blimps and their reading "Will you marry me Jane?" Mother better talk to your daughter, 'Cause she is everybody's baby, She's everybody's girl. She's everybody's baby, She's everybody's girl. "I want you to talk to me!" And don't cha know that I really like a what you do, But everything you do you do for the whole world too. Mother better talk to your daughter, 'Cause she is everybody's baby, She's everybody's girl. She's everybody's baby, She's everybody's girl.
5.	What Do You Get? 00:39	lyrics	buy track
What do you get? What do you get? When you put gum in your best friend’s hair Put a tack on the teacher’s chair Push your little sister down the stairs What do you get? When you knock down the neighbor’s chimes Steal a quarter from the March of Dimes Speak out for the mimes. What do you get? When you put sand in your dad’s lube Call your best friend a goob Write a song called “Hey Jude” What do you get? What do you get?

Flipping through the yearbook I did see A pretty pretty baby looking up at me I’ve never seen that face before And she was only a sophomore I searched all over the school Trying to find that jewel I asked for the attendance sheet Said she hadn’t been here for a week Is she gone with the Trinidad Man?

Hey, stop, pretty baby. There’s something I wanna say. The way you’re behaving is making me saving my money for a rainy day.

There's a brand new dance that's going around, it's called the hiccup! It's faster than a locomotive and a pickup. You got it in your blood and you got it in your veins, And you got it beating back and forth dire ctly to your brain. You got the picture? You got a hipster.

Flying through the air like a prima ballerina, Gonna yell 1-2-3-4 more bar chords! Doing the Hiccup! "Whoo-Ha!" Well the cops are here and they're banging on the door, So hang on baby got time for one more bar chord. Doing the Hiccup. (Well come on baby, won't you dance with me?)
