Back Up Plan 04:17
hey hey baby, i'm your future man/ everybody knows, i'm your back up plan/ hey hey baby, i'm a be all yours/ i'll peep in your window and wait by the the door/ hey hey girl, I'm your best friend now/ everybody knows, i'm your big bad clown/ hey hey girl, it could be much worse/ so i'll save your table, and i'll watch your purse/ drop and give me ten/ years later/ hey hey woman, is it my turn yet/ everybody knows, i wanna be your pet/ i been patient and i been nice/ nobody's left, so let's roll the dice

he breaks up/ she breaks down/ when he moves out/ she falls down/ she stands up/ she falls down/ she needs time/ she needs space/ she needs wine/ she stands up/ she sits down/ she freaks out/

The Hard Way 02:47
i burn down bridges, i step on toes/ i kick in the door, and a cold wind blows/ they'll never catch me, i'll never pay/ i'm the kind of man, who does it, the hard way/ i got ten black t-shirts. one pair of jeans/ one pocket knife, one can of beans/ one dirty dollar, for four filthy days/ i'm the kind of man, who does it, the hard way/ two black eyes, and one broken nose/ one round down, and fourteen to go/ you offer a hand, i'll slap it away/ i'm the kind of man, who does it, the hard way

Lil Dog Howl 02:43
i make the little kids stare/ i make the tiny babies cry/ i make little dogs howl/ i'll make that pig testify/ i'll take no for answer/ i'll take one for the team/ i'll take one for the money/ and wipe it off on my jeans/

i can't believe, it's come it to this, yet again/ i'm down and out, fucked and chucked, i been condemned/ they told me once, they told me twice, now it's all my fault/ they pushed me out, they shook me loose, they kicked me down/ you gotta scratch/ you gotta pound/ i can't believe, it's come it to this, yet again/ i paid my dues, i chomped my bit, i won't offend/ i'm working days, i'm working nights, but i'm losing ground/ i bit it off, i chewed it up, i held it down/ i swing a mighty hammer/ just to swat a fly/ i grab a graveyard shovel/ and dig until i die/ i can't believe, it's come it to this, yet again/ i play a game, i'll never win, i don't know why/ i started late, i finished last, don't stand a chance/ i'm givin' up, i'm dropping out, gonna burn out loud/

Comin' After You (free) 03:39
oh there's a full moon down at the parking lot tonight/ the old lady screams and the fat man sings and bites/ a dark wind howls and the street lights shake with fright/ it's a soup can fire just waiting to ignite/ you don't believe it, but it's true/ nobody's comin' after you/ oh there's a big black cloud at the halfway house tonight/ they got a padlock slapped on to every door in sight/ there's 35 flies on the kitchen floor, that's right/ it's all gonna end in a crack of dawn fist fight/
10.
Super Circus 03:00
i wanna live in a super circus/ i wanna live in a freakshow/ i wanna live in a tilt-a-whirl/ i wanna live in a dark ride/ i wanna live in a strange town all my life/ i wanna live in a group house til i die/ play guitar in the basement every day/ smoke cigars on the front porch every night/
