My baby’s momma is a singular girl-  
She brought up her daughter and brought her up well.  
I’m breathing no more, 'cause she took it away…  
My baby gives it up every day.

Baby smiled like a tiny child  
She talked her head off, and the land lies wild  
Tossed and turned on a teardrop sea  
And all those dark clowns who are following me

And you fly, she pointed up into the sky  
And you can touch them if you try  
And you fly

Baby left as she lost her breath  
Hastens off to some unknown death  
Trapped inside under painted eyes  
Takes herself into the new sunrise

And you fly, she pointed up into the sky  
And you can touch them if you try  
And you fly

</div>

I can’t stand to fly  
I’m not that naive  
I’m just out to find  
The better part of me

I’m more than a bird…I’m more than a plane  
More than some pretty face beside a train  
It’s not easy to be me

Whether I’m right, or whether I’m wrong  
Whether I find my place in this world, or never belong  
I’ve gotta be me! I’ve gotta be me  
What else can I be but what I am

I am what I am  
I am my own special creation.  
So come take a look,  
Give me the hook or the ovation.  
It’s my world that I want to take a little pride in,  
My world, and it’s not a place I have to hide in.  
Life’s not worth a damn,  
'Til you can say, “Hey world, I am what I am.”

That’s the song I hear  
Let the world sing today  
A song of peace that echoes on  
And never goes away

I can grasp your hand so tightly  
Never feel my touch  
You can always feel the pain  
But you never feel the love  
Hard times are harder  
When you can’t quite find the beat  
You must search down deep down inside you  
To find the peace that you seek

Can’t find the words to tell you  
You’re not who you think  
I can’t change you, I can’t heal you  
All I know there’s more to you than you see

Wake up, the sun is rising  
It’s time to play  
But there’s a deep dark fog inside you  
That never burns away

Burn out the day  
Burn out the night  
I can’t see no reason to put up a fight  
I’m living for giving the devil his due…  
And I’m burning, I’m burning, I’m burning for you

Fight, fight, fight, fight, yeah!  
Fight, fight, fight, yeah!  
Fight for what you want!  
Fight for what you need.  
Fight to keep the one you love,  
If love is what you feel.

You wake up late for school man you don’t wanna go  
You ask you mom, “Please?” but she still says, “No!”  
You missed two classes and no homework  
But your teacher preaches class like you’re some kind of jerk

You gotta fight for your right to party

They’re Pinky and The Brain  
Yes, Pinky and The Brain  
One is a genius  
The other’s insane.  
They’re laboratory mice  
Their genes have been spliced  
They’re dinky  
They’re Pinky and The Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain  
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain  
Brain.

Before each night is done  
Their plan will be unfurled  
By the dawning of the sun  
They’ll take over the world.

I’m goin’ down to South Park gonna have myself a time,  
Friendly faces everwhere humble folks without temptation,  
I’m goin’ down to South Park gonna leave my woes behind,  
Ample Parking Day or Night, people spouting, “Howdy, Neighbor”  
I’m headin’ down to South Park gonna see if I can’t unwind,  
_I like girls with big vagina, I like girls with big fat titties_  
So come on down to South Park, and meet some friends of mine.

Well I’m goin’ down to Laurel  
It’s a dirty stinkin’ town yeah  
But me I know exactly  
What I’m going to find

Little girl I’m goin’ to see  
She is a fool for lovin’ me  
But she’s in love  
And love’s a funny state of mind.

There’s a young man that I know  
His age is twenty-one  
Comes from down  
In southern Colorado

Just out of the service  
And he’s looking for his fun  
Someday soon, going with him  
Someday soon

Where the snowy peaks gleam in the moonlight,  
above the dark forests of pine,  
And the wild foaming waters dash onward,  
toward lands where the tropic stars shine;  
Where the scream of the bold mountain eagle,  
responds to the notes of the dove  
Is the purple robed West, the land that is best,  
the pioneer land that we love.

She’s so mean but I don’t care  
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair  
Dance to the beat that we love best  
Heading for the nineties  
Living in the wild wild west  
The wild wild west

Time is past in the Field of Mars  
Grief won’t last in the departing cars  
And I call her name, but she never, ever hears  
And I call again to the cruelty of the years  
Oh my love she’s so far away  
Oh my love she’s so far away

Oh, Field of Mars  
Oh, Field of Mars
