BAD ATTITUDE – words by A. Chittick & Nate Butler, music by Nate Butler
I like a motorcycle ride, down by the railroad tracks at night
I got to feel my soul alive; I got my leather jacket tight
Bad attitude, I said the wheels just get me high
Bad attitude, so you can kiss my ass goodbye
I don't need to socialize, I don't need no wings to fly
I spend all my night alone; my woman always gives me flack
She always call me on the phone, but I don't ever call her back
Bad attitude, I said I need to get me high
Bad attitude, so you can kiss my ass goodbye
I don't need to socialize, I don't need no wings to fly
This life'll be the death of me, my social worker says to me:
“You've got a bad attitude”, I said I need to get me high
Bad attitude, so Mister, kiss my ass goodbye
I don't need to socialize, I don't need no wings to fly
I've got a bad attitude
I've got a bad attitude
I've got a bad attitude
I've got a bad attitude

BREEZE AROUND THE BAY - words & music by Nate Butler
As the afternoon slips away, stepping out of line today
'Cause I want to see the sunset without city in the way
On the clearest day you might say
That you see the hills from all the way
But usually the smoke we make gets in the way, and we go
Coming out to see the ocean, that's where we go
Staring at it leaves a notion of the world
Where man made these clouds today
Breeze around around around around around the bay
Get far away by freeway
Breeze around around around around around the bay
Get far away; I can't stay but a day
Before the planet's gone, Number One's gonna eat until he's full and done
Then drive like he owns the road (well, he paid his toll)
When it shines on everyone, we all own a piece of sun
And it doesn't belong to anyone when everyone is one together
Coming out to see what everybody owns
Only to see the ozone blow away
Don'tcha know, man made these clouds today
Breeze around around around around around the bay
Get far away by freeway
Breeze around around around around around the bay
Get far away; I can't stay where I am, so I gotta go
Breeze around around around around around the bay
Get far away by freeway
Breeze around around around around around the bay
Get far away; I can't stay but a day

Stay Out Of Love

STAY OUT OF LOVE - words & music by Nate Butler
I used to give myself a little time to find a word to fit the times
We try to refine it, and get behind
Because we get so much of yours and mine
I've got a job to do tonight
I'll take the time to get it right
There's nothing else I'm thinking of
Maybe 'cause I'm not in love
And I'm gonna be on it, I'm gonna be on it
I'm gonna be on it, I'm gonna be ... out of love
Don't wanna change my mind
I've got a passion, and I'm far enough behind
Create it, I hate it, to rearrange
It's kind of funny now how I have changed
I've got a job to do tonight
I'll take the time to get it right
How to make it work, I'm thinking of
Maybe 'cause I'm not in love
And I'm gonna be out of it, I'm gonna stay out of it
I'm gonna be out of it, I'm gonna stay out of love
To love your work, it only lacks (can't tell if it can love you back)
Can't tell what works from what's enough (but you know love from where you were)
'Cause I'm not in love ('cause I'm not in love)
Maybe 'cause I'm not in love
And I'm gonna be on it, I'm gonna be on it
I'm gonna be on it, I'm gonna be on it
I'm gonna stay out of love
I'm gonna be on it, I'm gonna be on it
I'm gonna be on it, I'm gonna be on it
I'm gonna stay out of love
I've got friends enough; I've got the best of love
If I'm gonna get it right, got to win this fight and
Stay out of love
Stay out of love

AFTER DEATH – words & music by Nate Butler
Taki sonta moon, draw my breath
I can see what I'm gonna do after death
Bridal shower blood, no one left
I can see, happily, who to do-in after death
Whatcha doin' after death?
Taki sonta moon, I draw my breath
I can see what I'm gonna do after death
After death, after death, after death
Bridal shower blood, no one left ...

MAKE YOURSELF - Words & Music by Nate Butler
Hey, don't turn your head
They won't be mislead
If you play the same interview, they will see there's nothing you can do
Make yourself, you make a better someone else
Make yourself, any way you want to, and you
Do anything for that brass ring
I never think of you the way you make yourself out to be
But I'm not the one you've got to please
Make yourself, you make a better someone else
Make yourself, any way you want to, and you do
They will say that I don't care
After I leave you there, to play this game you do so well
I've done all that I can do myself
Make yourself, you make a better someone else
Make yourself, any way you want to, and you do
Swedish lyrics:
SKAPA DIG SJÄLV
Hej, vänd inte bort ditt huvud
Dom kommer inte att bli vilseledda
Om du spelar upp samma intervju , då får dom se att det finns inget du kan göra åt det
Skapa dig själv, bli en bättre människa
Skapa ditt eget jag, precis som du vill vara
Gör vad som krävs för mässingsringen
Jag tänker aldrig på dig på det sättet du utger dig för att vara
Men det är inte mig du skall behaga
Skapa dig själv, bli en bättre människa
Skapa ditt eget jag,precis som du vill vara
Dom kommer säga att jag inte bryr mig
När jag lämnat dig där, så att du kan spela det här spelet som du gör så bra
Jag har gjort allt kunde
Skapa dig själv, bli en bättre människa
Skapa ditt eget jag, precis som du vill vara
Gör det ...

I CUT MYSELF – words & music by Nate Butler
I know things, but cannot dwell
Don't wanna feel, so I cut myself
Shut my eyes tight – I'm in hell
But don't wanna feel, so I cut myself
Where no one can see – I'm living alone
Anyway, I love long sleeves – so no one will know, oh
I know things, but cannot dwell
I don't wanna feel, so I cut myself
Shut my eyes tight – I'm in hell
But don't wanna feel, so I cut myself
Where no one can see – I'm living alone
Anyway, I love long sleeves – so no one will know, oh
Oh
Where no one can see – sure, I'm living alone
But anyway, I love long sleeves – so no one will know, oh
Oh ...

SCREWTAPE IS STILL ALIVE – words & music by Nate Butler
Can you believe it?
I know I'm getting screwed
I lie, but don't know why
Red tape is what I use
Although you think he died, Screwtape is still alive!
Screwtape is still alive, Screwtape is still alive
Screwtape is still alive, Screwtape is still alive
My letters to my Lord – sent back to me unsigned
My god is getting bored
Blue-collar me upside ... Screwtape is still alive!
Screwtape is still alive, Screwtape is still alive
Screwtape is still alive, Screwtape is still alive
Screwtape is still alive, Screwtape is still alive
Screwtape is still alive, Screwtape is still alive
I know I'm turning red
With hope, I close my eyes ...
I'm wishing all you dead …
And happiness will take a dive
And I won't be left alive ...

NOTHING - words & music by Nate Butler
Why do I promise to try to be everything to everyone I can?
I can only let somebody down when I'm spread so thin
I don't know if you feel it too, but tonight all I want to do
is nothing, just sit and do nothing
And we can go nowhere,
And I can be no one, see how you are
You are so illustrious and industrious
And you want to get things done
Your ambition overwhelms me because (shh) I have none
I don't know if you're right for me
'Cause tonight all I want to be is nothing
Just sit and do nothing
And we can go nowhere,
And I can be no one, see how you are
I don't know if you're right for me
'Cause tonight all I want to be is nothing
Just sit and do nothing
And we can go nowhere,
And I can be no one, see where we are -- nowhere
See who you are, no one
See how we are, nowhere
What we do now? -- Nothing.

DISTANCE – words & music music by Nate Butler
Bit my fingers till they bled today (thinking it over)
I ought to keep them shorter anyway (thinking it over)
No exciting news to bleed today (thinking it over)
Sit me down, again; sit me down (thinking it over)
Split the skull, scoop out the rind
And smear it 'cross this broken mind
You never used to be unkind (you've got me)
Bit my fingers till they bled today (thinking it over)
I ought to keep them shorter anyway (thinking it over)
Split the nail, scoop out the rind
And tear it 'cross my broken mind
You never used to be so unkind
Now I'm up here, thinking it over (thinking it over)
You've got me thinking it over (thinking it over)
And there's nothing left but distance (you've got me thinking it over)
And there's nothing left but distance (you've got me thinking it over)
