No matter what you do
I've got better chords than you There is nothing left to prove while I'm alive No matter what you say I've got better chords to play So just beg for my mercy Apologize But if you want something good to sing You've come to the right place cause I'm the king No matter what you've heard I will use that major third To make better chords Better chords Better, Better, Better, Better, Better, Better, Better chords than you 02. Individually Twisted Music & lyrics by Gilbert
I was walking through the grocery store the other day
To ward off my starvation Got a crackerjack, a coffee, and a milky way And had this realization Gotta go where there's someone for me Gotta know how a real love can be Don't want to be Individually twisted like a pretzel Feel the salt right on my wounds Individually twisted Like a python With a knot I can't undo Individually twisted Twisted over you So I called a couple friends to get some good advice I knew that they could help me Yeah they told me I was always just a little too nice And that's why she condemned me Gotta leave her and give it a try Get me stoned on a natural high Don't want to be Individually twisted Like a pretzel Feel the salt right on my wounds Individually twisted Like a python With a knot I can't undo Individually Twisted Twisted over you Ooh woo ooh woo Ooh woo ooh woo Individually twisted Like a pretzel Feel the salt right on my wounds Individually twisted Like a python With a knot I can't undo Individually twisted, twisted Twisted, twisted over you Individually twisted over you Individually twisted over you 03. Cut, Cut, Cut Music & lyrics by Gilbert
I'm stuck at a red light
Just waiting to go Somebody beside me That I don't want to know I step on the pedal When it's finally green Doesn't matter how fast I go Cause she's in here with me First time I thought it And the next time I oughta It's the last time I ever wanna go Cut all the ties with you Don't want to be nice to you And after I've thrown it all away Well I Well I cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut all the ties Cut all the ties She knew it was over As I pulled to the side I gave her 'bout half my keys Then I told her to drive So I'm watching the tail lights Like I've done it before I smile the further they get Till I can't see 'em no more First time I thought it And the next time I oughta It's the last time I'm ever gonna go Cut all the ties with you Don't want to be nice to you And after I've thrown it all away Well I Well I cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut all the ties Cut all the ties Cut all the ties Cut all the ties Cut all the ties I'm back at the red light Don't think I'm amused When she knocks on my window Looking new and improved Says everything's different Maybe try it again Says she really misses Showing me off to her friends First time I thought it And the next time I oughta It's the last time I'm never gonna go Cut all the ties with you Don't want to be nice to you And after I've thrown it all away Well I Cut all the ties with you Don't want to be nice to you And after I've thrown it all away Well I Well I cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut all the ties Cut all the ties Cut all the ties Cut all the ties Cut all the ties 04. Alligator Farm Music & lyrics by Gilbert
My baby lives on an alligator farm
Just a good time ain't doin' no harm My baby works in the middle of the night All of them crocs been treatin' her right I ain't got nothin' to do after ten Maybe go down and see her again, I gotta go My baby's there in the middle of the room All them crocs just watchin' her move Yeah she's an expert training in the field She'll never be some alligator meal I ain't got nothin' to do after ten Maybe go down and see her again, I gotta go Hey, hey, call the band I'm down here in gator-land Hey, hey, call my friends Meet me there after nine Hey, hey, light the stage I'll be havin' some Gatorade tonight All right My baby lives in an alligator world Doin' those things like no other girl It's a dangerous place some callin' in a sin But I don't mind it when she's lettin' me in Hey, hey, call the band I'm down here in gator-land Hey, hey, call my friends Meet me there after nine Hey, hey, light the stage I'll be having some Gatorade tonight All right My baby lives on an alligator farm Just a good time ain't doing no harm Don't try tellin' me I should give her up You come too close and my jaws snap shut I don't want to tried and true Don't want to go to no pettin' zoo Around little dogs and birds and cats Rather have love that might bite back No, no, no, I don't want no senior prom Just wanna be on an alligator farm I gotta go I gotta go I know 05. Attitude Boy Will Overcome Music & lyrics by Gilbert
Livin', lovin'
Never get enough in Always workin' For another change I'm rollin', flowin' Dollars I be owin' Got no pennies to my lonely name I see them looking down at me High up in their money tree Tellin' me to go where I came from But attitude boy will overcome Attitude boy will overcome Always feelin' When my heart is bleedin' I know someday It will go away I'm ready steady But she don't comprehend me It's all right because I got another flame That's burning deep inside of me If no one in the world agrees I can make them see me one by one Cause attitude boy will overcome Attitude boy will overcome Goin', comin' Never stop of runnin' I don't wanna see another day Where people keep on Givin' all their freedom Wont' try livin' Cause they're so afraid I see the ease in turning back Turning down the thermostat But that won't make a tale for my grandson So attitude boy will overcome Attitude boy will overcome Attitude boy will overcome Attitude boy will overcome Attitude boy will overcome Attitude boy will overcome 06. 2 Become 1 Music & lyrics by Richard Stannard, Spice Girls, Matt Rowe

I don't have any practiced pick-up lines
I just know when I saw you there I thought maybe someday you'd be mine I could blow you away With my own confidence But I don't know your name So I'm asking your friend Rosalinda told me your name And smiled at the thought of you Rosalinda told me you don't play games But that wasn't all that Rosalinda told me 'bout you So I gave you my number, hoped you'd call Thought that maybe we'd get together And spend time forgetting it all Still I haven't heard back But that won't stop me Cause your friend Rosalinda Had said you were free Rosalinda told me your name And smiled at the thought of you Rosalinda told me you don't play games But that wasn't all that Rosalinda told me 'bout you Only a matter of time 'Till you see it's right Only a matter of time Like tomorrow night Only a matter of time I'm not worrying at all, oh no You're gonna feel the same As I do for you Although it's looking like rain I'm not feeling blue Only a matter of time Like the rain you're gonna fall I don't have any better place to go Doesn't make any difference 'cause You're the one girl that I'd like to know Yeah you blow me away With your own confidence And I'll thank Rosalinda From now 'till the end Rosalinda told me your name And smiled at the thought of you Rosalinda told me you don't play games But that wasn't all that Rosalinda told me 'bout you Rosalinda told me your name And smiled at the thought of you Rosalinda told me you don't play games But that wasn't all that Rosalinda told me 'bout you That told me 'bout you I know it's true 09.

10. Koto Girl Music & lyrics by Gilbert
When she was two
Mama told her what to do Sit and behave Don't make a sound now When she was eight She had found a different fate Move in a thing That's up and down now When the clock had moved some more She could open any door she pleased She's a Koto girl Playing eighteen string guitar Been around All the eastern world She can't leave now, but her dreams still travel far Now she is grown Has a life all of her own Plays all the time Just to be seen now I met her here Drinking cold ASAHI beer Or could have been A grass of tsing tao I walked up and asked her please She replied hello in cantonese She's a Koto Girl Who knows what she wants to be Been around All the eastern world But hopes someday for a life where she is free Don't go away I want to be with you I tried to say Come on, let's see it through But she's got those Stars in her eyes Shanghai, goodbye Signed a major record deal Now she plays TV shows in high heels She's a Koto girl A dream come true superstar Been around All the eastern world But Koto girl wants to climb the billboard charts She's a Koto girl Playing eighteen strings guitar What a sound Heard around the world this Koto girl (Koto girl) Has got her strings wrapped around my heart 11. Dreamed Victoria Music & lyrics by Gilbert
When the world has got me down
And there's no one else around Closed my eyes and thought I saw you Will you hear me when I call your name Yesterday I would say That I dreamed Victoria Is she real, I don't feel Like a dreamed Victoria So I'm talking to myself Wondering 'bout my mental health But I'm feeling so much better There's no way I can forget her name Yesterday I would say That I dreamed Victoria Is she real, I don't feel Like I dreamed Victoria Now I'm wondering what to do If I'm not imagining you So I tried to see you closer Asking everyone who knows your name And they say, right away That they dream Victoria You are real, but I feel Like I dreamed Victoria I can't go back to where I was Since I dreamed Victoria The only reason is because I have dreamed Victoria When the world has got me down I no longer hang around Got a better place to go to 12. Six Billion People Music & lyrics by Gilbert
There are six billion people on this planet
But I'll only ever fall in love with two One is a black and white photo of Grace Kelly And the other you might like to know is you There are six billion people on this planet And you'd think in all this time I'd find some more I've looked in both the city and the country But you're the only one that my heart's beating for 13. The Ballad Of The Last Lions Music & lyrics by Jimi Kidd
Long before our mothers bore us
Mighty lion roamed the forest When they left, we sure were sorry Don't be sad, you don't gotta worry Cause the last lions never give up The last lions Oh, the last lions never will stop The last lions Don't gotta be no monkey's uncle To see you're still in the same old jungle Same old city, same old pavement And the cats are coming back to claim it Cause the last lions never give up The last lions Oh, the last lions never will stop The last lions Yeah, the last lions never give up The last lions Oh, the last lions always will rock The last lions, yeah The last lions never give up The last lions Yeah, the last lions never will stop The last lions Oh, the last lions never give up The last lions Yeah, the last lions always will rock The last lions, yeah One more time 14.
