year_of_the_rat silentbob The Impossibles - Eightball No. 2 I hold the future in my fingertips my destination races across her lips it's no suprise it's just what it predicts my fate is sealed shut by the dice it picks so I shook my magic eightball and I posed an inquiry and my future began to surface: "outlook not so good", "most likely not", "my souces say no" it is without a doubt hard to figure out this magic ball what gives it it's mojo powers, and makes it so mystical? is it the faith of over a million kids who find it believable? or is it a bunch of four sided dice trapped in a black plastic ball? 000731 ... silentbob The Hippos - Diane I've been in this bind for a while, I can't find a girl who's quite my style, ever since you walked out on me. You were the one for me, we'd sit and watch our MTV, why'd you have to walk out on me? I'm reaching insanity. Diane, come back to me. I can be anything that he can be! Please tell me what wasn't right. "Two star crossed lovers" in the night, why'd you have to walk our on me? (Chorus) 000731 ... silentbob Ann Beretta - Bottle Caps - No. 1 I twist off bottle caps broken all my teeth again im tried and the toll is on you im 6_feet_under but trippin on my soul again im twisted and im broken and bruised Jump back, stuck in the middle, lost track Dont know what we're gonna do I'm stoned and..?? and?? save myself my best bet is looking on you step outside you know ??

I miss the way you were before you figured out that I'm not yours and at every show I'm just another face in your front row but now I know you're so alone so why'd you have to change? do you ever miss me the same way? I miss our long talks on the porch with shifting eyes and sweet retorts and it's been so long I can't remember what went wrong I miss you but I'm giving up 000731 ... silentbob Empire State Games - dialogue (from a movie) No. 9 bear with me, i beg you. i’m prone to change. bear with me, please. a new day, a new way for something done before. what if i said nothing’s what it seems? you’d shrug me off, ‘cause that’s not true. watch him, he knows more than you ever could. just look around, his face is everywhere. it’s not as easy as it seems to place the blame where it belongs. i can’t help thinking; if you changed your mind, would i still even care? honest thoughts become obstructions, and warped intentions drive us. 000731 ... silentbob The Impossibles - Plan B No. 12 push-pinned my picture to your wall, framed it in pieces of argyle. there's a thread for every minute I missed my chance to begin it. I could feel the pressure building up as I cram it to the top, a coffee can filled with letters. my ears begin to pop as the tension drops. we've fallen down, someday you won't be around for me to fall back on. it's so akward to say goodbye to you, the tensest moment when I fail to follow through, I'm all wound up and then you tighten the screws, my want turns to need as you slip on the noose. As I push my pen across the page casting my spell like a first level mage, my epic battle between love and rage/ a melodramatic mess not fit for my age we've fallen down, all my innocence has drowned since you've gone she says I'm changing everyday, she wants to know how, why, and who with. she says there's still good left in me like I'm the dark lord of the sith. I write this every single winter, and now I'm writing it again: I shed my common sense in exchange for newer skin. the good news is that I've finally learned to appreciate my friends, the bad news is that I havent got any left, the good news is that I dream about it almost every night, the bad news is that when I wake up you're not there. 000731 ... silentbob Limp - EXIT No. 6 seen it all before not like this not my trip this is what i saw saw the lot of you doing things saying things and in front of me you didn't seem to care who was there what was heard it affected me wash my hands of you over this this is through this is what i mean by now you've moved on i assume still alone with that attitude now you find yourself by yourself, on your own with a big ego no one there to feed what you need give you peace and or anything i need something good something else this is through this is what i mean it pours out of you and into me 000731 ... silentbob Animal Chin - tell me what it means No. 5 wanna hold on to this moment wanna picture for my stare yeah loosen up i won't leave i won't go anywhere without you now your past is filled with problems and people that you use to know but this is now and he's not me so quit acting like you pose a threat to me why do we play the victim tell me what it means why are we so fixed on problems we just don't need i wanna hold on to this moment and make a plan to take a stand yeah you're not giving up please don't no just hang in there you wanna be strong instead of weak you wanna brick wall so i can't see you build up a good defense now remember just one thing you can always count on me. 000731 ... silentbob Animal Chin - seven No. 15 (a) the job is someone else's (b) they'll be laughing at me with a big fat grin yeah (c) so i won't give you two minutes or two seconds (d) you're a little old to be at the movies the more you will the more you won't a first handshake a goodbye note you're wasting time why can't you see there's nothing left here it's just me the rainy day for what you saved has now cleared itself up and gone away the day will come and you won't know which way is up which way to go you're wasting time when will you choose there's nothing left here it's just you whoah it's the season of friendship treason now you've made it so complicated. 000731 ... silentbob Discount - Accidents Waiting to Happen - No. 4 I've always been impressed with a girl Who could sing for her supper and get breakfast as well That's the way I am, heaven help me He said, "We don't like peace camapigners 'round here" As he nailed another one to the wall And that's what gets me in trouble, heaven help me Goodbye and good luck to all the rubbish that you've spoken Goodbye and good luck to all the promises you've broken Your life has lost its dignity, its beauty and its passion You're an accident waiting to happen There you are standing at the bar And you're giving me grief about the DDR And that chip on your choulder gets bigger as you get older One of these night you're gonna get caught, It'll give you a pregnant pause for thought You're a dedicated swallower of fascism Time up and time out For all the liberties you've taken Time up and time out for all the friends that you've foresaken If you choose to waste away like death is back in fashion You're an accident waiting to happen And my sins are so unoriginal I have all the self-loathing of a wolf in sheep's clothing In this carnival of carnivores, Heaven help me Chorus 000801 ... silentbob Jimmy Eat World - For Me This Is Heaven No 13 The first star i see may not be a star. can't do a thing but wait so let's wait for one more. the time such clumsy time in deciding if it's time. I'm careful but not sure how it goes. You can lose yourself in your courage. The mindless comfort grows when i'm alone with my 'great' plans. This is what she said gets her through it: If i don't let myself be happy now then when? If not now, when? When the time we have now ends. when the big hand goes round again. Can you still feel the butterflies? Can you still hear the last goodnight? I close my eyes and believe wherever you are an angel for me. 000804 ... jessica this doesn't really fit here, but i just have to say that i live in smalltown oklahoma, and i'm feeling less alone now that i have proof that someone else likes this stuff 020515 ... silentbob i'm glad blather has dates, because now you can see exactly how long i've waited for someone to at least inquire as to the point of all of my little cut and pasting lyrics, and you know. i approve highly of your existance 020516 ... jessicafletcher my existance or everyone's existance in general, i wonder. 020516 ... jessicafletcher i'm alone....apparently 020713 ... silentbob yours jackass 020807 ... silentbob We made out to this cd but it does not remind me of you, not like talkie_walkie 040902 what's it to you? who go blather from
