Christine's coming over, gotta find me some Palmolive Gotta clean up all these dishes in the sink I've spent time with a lot of girls, you know I'm not some sort of hermit But Christine makes it hard for me to think Ooh she make me wanna get my chits together She's the kind of woman expects a proper man                    Ooh she make me wanna stand a little taller   Christine’s coming and I’m doing all I can Christine’s coming over, can I borrow your old Hoover? Gotta vacuum all these dust balls off the floor I've been happy in my pigsty but Christine’s got a sharp eye And soon she will be knocking on my door Ooh she make me wanna sign up for some classes She’s the kind of woman knows a lotta facts Ooh she make me wanna learn a foreign language Christine’s coming and I’m cleaning up my act Christine's coming over and I gotta get some artwork Gotta take that Zeppelin poster down It looks good under black light but I’m thinking that tonight it might not work right If we’re gonna mess around Ooh she make me wanna grow up in five minutes She’s the kind of woman who don't make time with clowns Ooh she make me wanna play some Roxy Music Christine’s coming and I'm ready for her now

When you're kissing on me do you think of James McAvoy? I mean, I get it -- he's really dreamy In certain situations I'd even call him steamy When you're kissing on me do you think of James McAvoy? I mean, I get it -- he rings your bell But I wanna be the one to make your heart swell I mean, I get it -- he's really great What do you think he's like on a date? If he ordered the chardonnay Would you order the chardonnay? You never liked chardonnay, it's way to buttery! If he ordered the pinot noir Would you order the pinot noir? That's taking it way too far, you never liked pinot noir! When you're kissing on me do you think of James McAvoy? I mean, I get it -- he rocks your world But I wanna be the one to make your toes curl When you're kissing on me do you think of James McAvoy? I mean, I get it -- he's a total hunk But I wanna be your lover, I don't wanna be your punk I mean, I get it -- he's super hot He takes his shirt off a lot If he ordered the creme brulee Would you order the creme brulee? You never had nothing good to say about creme brulee! If Coldplay was his jam Would you say they're your favorite band? It's like you don't give a damn about human dignity! When you're kissing on me do you think of James McAvoy? I mean I get it -- those deep blue eyes You call his name when I touch your thighs When you're kissing on me do you think of James McAvoy? I mean I get it -- I know he's super hot He's the one you want, I'm the one you got The one you want, the one you got I mean, I get it

The city’s been on lockdown Since Shannon came our way When's she gonna wake up? What's she gonna say? Police are stationed bedside Pulling overtime for weeks till Shannon speaks There’s not another witness She was the only one around The rest of us just guessing 'bout how all it all fell down Heaven just might spare us If we turn the other cheek when Shannon speaks When Shannon speaks we’ll figure out When the astroid’s gonna hit When Shannon speaks we’ll understand Why the atom’s gonna split And now her eyes are open It’s the moment of release When Shannon speaks

Wild Love 03:55
She does this thing with her hips where she swerves and she dips when the music’s not even playing   She does this thing with her eyes, keeps me mezmerized all day She does this thing to my heart makes it stop and it start I think it might start pumping sideways She does this thing to my head you know she’s just gotta have it her way Oh girl -- when we hit that groove Oh girl -- I feel the mountains move Gimme a taste of your wild, wild love Those sweet, sweet kisses I been dreamin of Oh girl -- Love you better than whiskey Oh girl -- Don’t you wanna get frisky? Gimme a taste of your wild, wild love Those wet sloppy kisses I been dreamin of She does this thing with her lips every time we kiss and I gotta stop and and catch my breath She does this thing with her hands, I can’t stand when she pulls them away She does this thing to my soul, yeah she fills a hole, I didn’t know I had a hole needed filling She does thing to my pulse you you know she’s just gotta have it her way Oh girl -- you know I’m stuck like glue Oh girl -- on the bottom of your shoe Gimme a taste of your wild, wild love Those sweet, sweet kisses I been dreamin of Oh girl -- I got you on the brain Oh girl -- don't you yank my chain Gimme a taste of your wild, wild love Those smoky, sticky kisses I been dreamin of Oh girl -- you gimme the jitters Oh girl  -- but I ain’t no quitter Gimme a taste of your wild, wild love Those sweet, sweet kisses I been dreamin' of Oh girl -- love you more than my guitar Oh girl -- you got me working so hard Gimme a taste of your wild, wild love Those slippery little nibbles I been dreamin of Oh girl -- oh girl Gimme a taste, imme a taste Of you your wild love

All the Way 02:50
Since the second day of summer I been aching to get with you And now we’re alone together it’s like a dream come true Bathed by the dashboard's glow The radio turned way down low                         Tonight we’re gonna take it slow We’re going all the way I know that those other lovers left bruises on your heart Now you're so reluctant to make another start Tonight we’ll put it out of mind Leave the past far behind Reclaim what’s yours and mine We’re going all the way Going all the way Tonight it’s just you and me Writing our own destiny Wedged in the passenger seat We're going go all the way

Judy was an American girl She came in the morning with the US mail She didn't say nothing But she looked pretty good to me Golden hair that shines so bright Loving eyes that see not sight She could keep the secrets That we share in my world of dreams And a man needs something When he ain't got nothing to hold onto And there ain't no telling When I feel like yelling, "I love you" Ooh, it gets lonely in the night When there ain't no one around Ooh, she makes me feel alright Get my feet right off the ground She's the girl of my dreams Judy does what I ask her to She makes me happy when I feel blue She stares with the eyes of a child And gets me to my knees Her heart it never beats in time 'cept when it's beating close to mine I keep her from my friends Locked away with my fantasies And a man needs something When he ain't got nothing to hang onto And there ain't no telling When I feel like yelling, "I love you" Ooh, it gets lonely in the night When there ain't no one around Ooh, she makes me feel alright Get my feet right off the ground She's the girl of my dreams

Bad Mom! 03:27
They’re whispering your name On the sidelines of the soccer game it sounds like you’ve been stepping on some toes They say you caused a panic 'cuz the snack you brought was not organic Those veggie chips were made with GMOs Your children’s socks don’t match Your Subaru’s all scratched That’s how they figured out you don’t belong You’re a bad, bad mom All those other mothers think you’re doing it all wrong They say you’re a bad, bad, bad mom What’s going on? You didn’t tip the valet when you showed up late for ballet Your daughter’s hair, it wasn’t in a bun You haven’t spent a single day fundraising for the PTA You let your children play with water guns Ever since you moved to town our bond rating's been going down We’ve gotta keep our property values strong You’re a bad, bad mom All those other mothers think you’re doing it all wrong They say you’re a bad, bad, bad mom They want you gone You’re sneaking cigarettes I can smell it on your breath  Can I bum just one? You know I’m trying to quit You can spray that lemon spray but the smell won’t go away Don’t worry darling I don’t give a sh … hoot Your recycling’s unsorted Your children’s dreams all thwarted They’ve been staring at those screens for way too long You’re a bad, bad mom I’m so amazed at all the ways you find to get it wrong You’re a bad, bad mom I think I love you

I was a joke A Kentucky fried chicken choke Talking big game, flapping my gums Never got around to gettin nothing done I was a freak Couldn’t even get along with the other geeks Always so sure things would go my way Always got rolled by the end of the day  I was alone -- I was afraid Tired of nothing working out my way I wanna make it happen I been aching to make it all come true     See those heads swivel when I walk into the room I wanna make it happen Wanna make it happen, happen soon I’m gonna make it happen Make it happen with you I was a fool I got jerked around when the sun went down Waiting for a peach to fall in my lap What a waste of time -- what a load of crap I was a tool Hanging 'round the old high school Copenhagen ring in my 501s Trojans ribbed in the other one  I was adrift -- I was pissed Tired of nothing working out my way I wanna make it happen I been waiting to make it all come true     See those eyes follow when I’m thinking of something new I wanna make it happen Wanna make it happen, happen  soon I’m gonna make it happen Make it happen with you
