HATCHBACK BLUES

VERSE 1: I hope you're ready to hear the story that I will unfold in this very sweet song

Took a wrong turn down a wrong road and that's when everything started going wrong

The lady was steamin' and I was pissed off, I threw my hat off in a fit of rage

The people were laughin' and I was cussin'- stupid mofo better put me in a cage.

PRECHORUS: She was my love for many a year, and she would drive me anywhere

And if I asked real nice with a cherry on top she could even outrun the cops

LIKE THIS!

CHORUS: How could I forget the time I set you on fire?

Never was anyone with whom I got higher

I don't care what they say, I would ride you any day

I don't believe them, it's a lie: I WILL NEVER LET YOU DIE!

VERSE 2: We used to drive into town, with the bass turned up and the treble turned down

If we ever ran out of gas, we'd turn the bass up and bounce back to town

Do you remember the time Chuck hit you real hard while he was drunk?

Well that's okay 'cause I hit his car too, and he's got some extra junk in his ga dunk a dunk trunk.

DON'T RAIN ON OUR PARADE

VERSE 1: Saw you comin' from a mile away (HEY!)

Think I thought I told you better stay away

Sometimes I wonder (WHAT'S THE POINT?)

Just give up on everything and smoke a joint

Well I've been down that road before

I only found myself wanting more

I was high as a kite and I did not want to land

So I got up off my ass and I joined a ska band.

VERSE 2: So get up off your ass you pathetic waste of space

You don't know how nice it is until you get a taste

We all feel like shit sometimes and I know I've had enough

We all got some time to kill so help us spread the love

I like da music when music's in the sun

I like da music and the feeling of the rum

It's a beautiful day in a beautiful way

So why don't you come on out with us and play.

CHORUS: Don't rain, don't rain on our parade

Everybody needs to be saved

Sometimes...

I HATE DIET PEPSI

VERSE: I hate Diet Pepsi and Mountain Dew

They reduce your sperm count and taste like poo

My name is Zachary Michael Cooper and I'm super duper white

I ain't got the might to fight the night light

What's the meaning of this song don't ya have a clue

I ain't got one never mind got two

Bananas in my pocket can't you see

Thought I was happy to see you no I'm happy to see me

Hey here comes the hardcore breakdown part

So sit back, relax and have a pop tart.

HARD CORE PART: The Riots of the Red rock all night long

Cussin' and fussin' and shockin' and rockin' it all night long

Ya know I'm hardcore to the heart keepin' it real

I'm back off the street don't ya know how I feel

Ridiculous Red Riot rockers ya know we JK

WTF MoFo can you hear me when i say HARDCORE...

Hey where ya goin' the song ain't over

What's a matter you thought you got away

You have no choice you have to stay

I've said it once before and I'll say it once again

I'm the best there will be and I am the best that there has been.

BACK WITH A VENGEANCE

VERSE 1: We are back with a vengeance and we got a lot of will

We got a lot of rhythm and we got the beat down and we got a lot of skill

It's been a long time since we've played here for you

So listen real close and you will hear our music is brand new.

CHORUS: We've been battered and broke and kicked off stage

But we never lose our spirits and we never act our age.

VERSE 2: If you don't like to skank well that's just fine

Just groove real slow to the rhythm of the bass line.

VERSE 3: We're eight too many packed into the garage

Everybody knows we are criminals at large

Shawn's van really sucks, I'm not gonna lie

We have a lot of fun, anyway, I think Tom killed a guy!

TOGA'S GONNA GET DRUNK TONIGHT

VERSE 1: Put your party hats on get ready to booze

Cause we're out on the town and we've got nothing to lose

Take a shot, grab a beer, have some fun

You only live once, when you're dead it's done

So you need a reason, so you need a clue

Just listen real close cause I've got one for you.

CHORUS: Toga's gonna get drunk tonight

Toga's gonna get drunk tonight

Toga's gonna get drunk tonight!

VERSE 2: Poor little Toga can't stand up straight

He's been drinking all night but at least he feels great

In his fancy leather wallet he's got 100 dollar bills

He's got a bigass pistol and a license to kill

He's got our back, so you watch yours

Cause if you mess with us, we'll mess you up for sure

We are THE RED RIOTS, we party hard

So you'd better go home or play your card

Still need a reason? Still need a clue?

Even your momma parties hard, and she says screw you!

SINGALONG: If you got a little rhythm, if you got a little time

Come spare a few with us and help us sing our rhyme

If there's a party going on and there's nothing else to do

Toga will get drunk tonight and so will you!

GYPSY

I walk alone No direction Got the six string on my back and the words are in my pocket I have no home No home I've seen seven ancient wonders and the road keeps moving on I once met a bartender he asked my name He didn't know I didn't know but it's all the same ALL THE SAME

I've been alone for most of my life a-woah It's time for change, it's time for me to get out of here Don't want to live my life on the edge anymore It's time for me TO GET OUT

YOU DON'T KNOW

VERSE 1: Once upon a time I had it all figured out

I had a girl by my side not a care in the world or a thing to worry about

I was running out of time, and I did not have a clue

But I had a bad sense of judgement and a girl I thought I knew.

CHORUS: Be careful to fall in love, for it may hurt a lot in the end

I've learned a few things along the way and this is all I know my friend

It's better to have loved than never at all yes it's better to have loved and lost

I wouldt travel to Hell and come back again yes love is worth the cost.

(Or is it?)

VERSE 2: I got her a ring and I kept my promise

I didn't know her actions could be as deadly as her soft kiss

Maybe she's learned her lesson but I could really care less

All I know is what I know and I haven't learned mine I've just made my life a mess.

CHORUS: Every day is torture and my mind is ground meat

You told me that you loved me you're a liar and a cheat

So you know how it feels 'cause I say so let me tell you baby you don't fuckin' know.

VERSE 3: So now you know my story so now you know my tale

So now you have a taste of what it's like you know just how I feel (WRONG!)

These words are not a warning nor are they a sign

Just take them what you will and do not waste my time.

SKANKING SAVED HIS LIFE

He dresses mighty fine and he wears a lot of shoes

But he ain't got no rhythm and he ain't got no clue

About what the hell is goin' on

Where he put his bong why I wrote this song

I don't know I don't know why, skanking just saved his life.

Know he picks up his guitar when ever he feels down

He only has one pair of shoes and he wears them all round town

He plays his guitar everywhere

In his underwear, hell he just don't care

I don't know I don't know why, skanking just saved his life.

Know he has a new addiction it is the music that we play

We supply his drug of choice and he is on it every day.

EVERYBODY SKANK!

VERSE 1: Have you ever felt alone? Have you ever felt left out?

I've never met a person without a single doubt

Well this goes out to you and this goes out to me

Just move your legs and then you'll see

Just watch Jon he'll lend you a hand

That's the reason he's called the toolman

It's easy as this and easy as that

Once you start you'll never turn back.

CHORUS: Move to the rhythm move to the beat

Don't stop now just move your feet

Move to the rhythm move to the beat

Skank! Skank! Skank! Skank!

VERSE 2: If you got a problem if you don't agree

Don't settle it with fists, do it with feet

We should all be able to get along

We might be able before too long

Be sure to laugh, sing, and dance

Have a good time and take a chance

We don't know how long we have

To live this life so don't be sad.

Our lyrics kick ass.
