Jamie [top]
Jamie, what you doin' now
What you doin' now girl?
Please, please tell me
Cuz I need to know, I need to know now
When I was down, you came to me
And promised you'd always be
By my side, now you're gone
And I'm waiting patiently
But Jamie, I want you to know
Jamie, Jamie, I'm so glad you're mine
We'll be together a long time
Jamie, who's faxin' you now?
Who's dialin' your car phone?
Please, please be true
You know that I trust you, do that which you must do
You've got the Beach Boys, and your firm's got the Stones
But I know you won't leave me alone
Sometimes it seems you're not with me
It hurts me so much, It hurts me so much
You are the most, you're so rad, you're so fresh
And I'm glad I am yours, you are mine
Show me where and I will sign
Jaime, believe me, I won't let you down
Cuz you are the best lawyer in town

Mykel and Carli [top]
Back in Wilson High I had two best friends
They lived down the block
Where Eagle Ct. bends
One she cared for my bones
Fed me ice-cream cones
One she cared for my happiness
Wouldn't leave me alone
Back in Wilson High
Said I had these two best friends
Till the school bus came and took my friends away
Now I'm left alone at home
To sit and think all day
Hear you me, Mykel
Hear you me, Carli
They gave me a hat
the hat was awful rad
wore it everyday
Made my teacher mad
She tore it off my head
Now my head's well read
My head gets cold at night sometimes
But I can't be misled

Susanne [top]
Susanne, you're all that I wanted of a girl
you're all that I need in the world
I'm your child, make me blush, drive me wild
Susanne, you're all that I wanted
When I met you I was all alone
Cold and hungry cryin' on the phone
You baked me brownies and said "don't you cry"
And gave me the coat off your back
Even Izzy, Slash and Axl Rose
When I call you put 'em all on hold
And say to me that you'd do anything
and all I can do is say that I haven't much I can give you in return
Only my heart and a promise not to turn
But I'll sing to you every day and every night
Susanne, I'm your man

My Evaline (erroneously listed as "Sweet Adeline" on Undone single) (standard, early 20th century) [top]
My Evaline
Say you'll be mine
Won't you come and let me whisper in your ear
Way down yonder in the old corn field
For you I pine
Sweeter than the honey
To the honey bee
I love you say you love me
Meet me in the shade
Of the old apple tree
Eva-Iva-Ova-Avaline

You Gave Your Love To Me Softly [top]
You gave your love to me softly
I heard your heart beating true
Still your Bijan lingers on and on and on
You gave your love to me softly
When I'm feeling blue and lonely
All I have to do is think of you
We had just one night but it lingers on and on and on
You gave your love to me softly
"La, la, la" you sang to me
"Baby don't you cry Put your arms around me child
and lay with me tonight"

Devotion [top]
Suddenly our shortcomings don't seem to matter that much
Your IQ is 20 points low and I'm no Six Foot Hot Look
All American Man
Sad to say I pushed you away
waiting for "Mrs. Right"
You never gave up
Devotion, waiting for me, you'll always be my girlfriend
I too am waiting for you, I'll always be your friend
I commend your stubborness
without it we'd never got this far
I am done with perfection
Chasing her leaves me with nothing but pain
Unlike you, she isn't true
She's got her own concerns
You never gave up

Waiting On You [top]
Why haven't you called me?
Did you forget me?
I need to know
When were you intending
to break the silence and let me know?
Mine is the loneliest of numbers
and now is the loneliest of times
You're nineteen days late
But still I sit and wait...
Waiting and waiting,
Waiting on you
Who have you been seeing
that made you forget me?
I bet you call him
Where, oh where does he come from
I bet he lives close by
I bet he's just a friend
I asked you if you had a good heart
You answered "Yes, I'll never do you harm"

I Just Threw Out The Love Of My Dreams (vocals by rachel haden) [top]
I'm so tall, can't get over me
I'm so low, can't get under me
I must be all these things
for I just threw out the love of my dreams
He's in my eyes, he is in my ears
He's in my blood, he is in my tears
I breathe love and see him every day
Even though my love is a world away
Oh, he's got me wondering
My righteousness is crumbling
Never before have I felt this way
I know what is right, but want for him to stay
I must be made of steel
for I just threw out the love of my dreams

Velouria (written by Black Francis) [top]
hold my head
we'll trampoline
finally through the roof
on to somewhere near
and far in time
velouria
her covering
travelling career
she can really move
oh velveteen!
my velouria, my velouria
even i'll adore you
my velouria
say to me
where have you been
finally through the roof
and how does lemur skin
reflect the sea?
we will wade in the shine of the ever
we will wade in the shine of the ever
we will wade in the tides of the summer
every summer every summer
every
my velouria
my velouria
forevergreen
i know she's here
in California
i can see the tears
of shastasheen
my velouria,
my velouria
even i'll adore your
my velouria

The Christmas Song [top]
You told me you would be here by my side
Warming my heart on this cold winter's night
Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself
You told me you would bring presents and treats(KROQ CD original)
You told me you would move heaven and earth(promo CD remix)
Cheering my spirits with homemade sweet meats(KROQ CD original)
Cheering my spirits with laughter and mirth(promo CD remix)
Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself
Oh, could you ever know how much I care?
Could you ever know that out somewhere
there's a boy who really hurts?
Since I've found you
I've found a girl
I've found a thorn
I've found a queen
Now I am warm

Christmas Celebration [top]
Christmas celebration
And all around the nation
Won't you stay with me tonight cause
I'm running out of fight
and the pagentry is such a bore
Carolers are singing
registers Ka-chinging
And the presents are in place
but I'd rather eat some mace
'cause the eggnog always makes me sick
You know how the story goes
you've seen it all before
That man is so obese that he can't get out the door
Christmas to perfection
I'm begging for some action
and the ringing in my ears
is the sound of Christmas cheer
and they've knocked me screaming overboard

Superstar [top]
There used to be a better kind
of rock and rollin' superstar
They'd strut around and do their thing
all I know how to do is sing
And I don't do that so well
I never summon things from hell
I'm just a regular white guy
who's afraid to rock so hard
I'd break my guard
and give myself away
There used to be a better brand
of frontman personality

Too Late To Try [top]
I don't want to die
Even though I have to
I just want to live a long, long time
And I see the gang to which I belong
Time to sing out our happy song
Wouldn't it be a cruel joke
If it's too late to try? Why?
I don't wanna grow
Even if it's good growth
I just wanna stay just like this
And I see the comfortable place to rest
Time to get this $^@! off my chest
Wouldn't it be a cruel joke
If it's too late to try? Why?
