There Is No Santa Claus
There is no Santa Claus
There is no Santa Claus, it's true
But this is between me and you
Your parents lie to you
They want you to be good all year
So they make up some stuff about...
Some old man
Who's watching you
When they're not there
And that's the truth
Ask them if they feel bad
For looking you right in the eyes
And spewing out these silly lies
They must think you're pretty dumb to really fall for that
Believing there's a creepy old guy watching you in bed
And if that were the case, wouldn't they keep him far from you?
Would they let him in your house, and serve him cookies too?
No old man
Is watching you
Your parents buy
All of your gifts
So who's that guy?
At the mall?
You sat on his lap
And told him what you want
He's just some guy
Who doesn't care
He probably hates kids
And hates his stupid job
There is no Santa Claus
There is no Santa Claus, it's true
But this is between me and you
Your parents lie to you
They want you to be good all year
And if you're good they'll buy you toys
They buy your love
They buy your love
There is no Santa Claus it's true

D Is For Divorce
A is for apples they are delicious
And they're also very good for you
B is for balloons at your birthday party
That was a good one, everybody danced
C is for cookies, they are so tasty
But they are just a sometimes snack
D is for divorce
That your parents filed for
D is for divorce
They don't love each other anymore
E is for every time you are with them
All they do is fight and fight all day
F's the frustration that you are feeling
Cause the pain inside wont go away
G is for the good times that are over
Things are different, now you have two homes
D is for divorce
That your parents filed for
D is for divorce
They don't love each other anymore
D is for divorce
They might say it's not your fault
D is for divorce
But you'll never really know for sure
Weekend comes
And Dad is home
But it's just for visitation
He takes you back to
His new bachelor pad
And cries his eyes out on the couch
Cause mom has got
A new boyfriend
And you can call him dad if you want
And we sing
La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la

Some Strangers Might Want You For Your Organs
Sometimes strangers talk to you
You might not know what to do
Please hear the words I'm telling you
Some strangers they might want you for your organs
They might seem friendly and nice
They might be very polite
Please please take this free advice
Some strangers they might want you for your organs
It's not your fault
Some strangers are bad
They'll tell you what you want to hear
And you'll wake up without kidneys anymore
I know you might be pretty scared
Going out into the world
You should be fully prepared
Some strangers they might want you for your organs
So when a stranger talks to you
What is the safest thing to do?
Assume that he wants to hurt you
Some strangers they might want you for your organs
It's no secret
Some people are bad
They'll offer you some candy bars
And you'll wake up in a bathtub full of ice
Some strangers they might want you for your organs
Some strangers they might want you for your organs
Some strangers they might want you for your organs
Those healthy organs
Some strangers they might want you for your organs

But Then You Grow Up
Hey kids won't you gather round
I'm going to sit you down and tell you
'Bout a couple things that I think you should know
You want to be the president
Or you will be an astronaut, I bet
You wanna be a big big big star
Cause when you're young the future looks so bright
You can do anything you like to do
The sky's the limit and time is on your side
But then you grow up
And you live in a van
Guess you should have stayed in school back then
So kids you just never know
There's so many different ways that things can go
And you don't really have much control
You can be successful and rich
Or you can end up face down in a ditch
And that's just how the story goes
Cause life is what happens to you
While you're busy making other plans
And life doesn't care what you have planned
But then you grow up
And you live in a van
Guess you should have stayed in school back then
We're all just wasting life
That much I know
We're all just ticking time away
We're all just chasing lies
That much is true
Until we all just fade away

Mother's Little Mistake

Mother's Little Mistake
You are mother's little mistake
You weren't meant to be in this world
Things were really grand without you
Then there came some unexpected news
When you were inside her womb
Do you think she cried?
Maybe she had second thoughts
But it was too late
And then you came around
You are mother's greatest mistake
One that she is proud to have made
But none the less you're still a mistake
Nothing can ever take that away
When she looks into your eyes
Does it make her sad?
That she can't really tell you how she felt on the day
That you came to be

Everybody Dies
There's one thing that you must realize
Everybody dies, everybody dies
We are born and then we live our lives
And then my friend you die, everybody dies
One day you will die, everybody dies

You Won't Amount To Much
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I got something to say to you
Life is full of disappointment no matter what you do
Well life is hard and if you're smart
You will know you wont amount to much
So few people ever do
What makes you think that you're so special too?
You're parents all tell you lies
You work your life away and then you die
Monday, Tuesday, pain filled days
The Devil tempts in many many ways
Well life is hard and if you're smart
You will know you wont amount to much
So few people ever do
What makes you think that you're so special too?
Well you're not
You're not so special
And you're not
You're not exempt
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Not all children go to heaven
Well life is hard and if you're smart
You will know you wont amount to much
So few people ever do
What makes you think that you're so special too?
What makes you think that you're so special too?
You're really not that special
That's the truth

It's A Man's World, Little Girl
It's a man's world, little girl
It's a man's world, little girl
And I don't know how to tell you
That you won't make the same wage
As your male counterpart
That's not really fair
But that's the way it is
It's a man's world, little girl
It's a man's world, little girl

Your Goldfish Is Not In Heaven
Your goldfish is not in heaven
Religion says they've got no souls
No they've got no souls
No they've got no souls
Well I don't want to get too heavy
So flush if you can hear me
Because your goldfish is not in heaven
And you can go and ask the Reverend
Your goldfish is not in heaven
Religion says they've got not souls
(no they've got no souls)
You flush your little guppy down the toilet
It does not go to a better place

Adoption Blues
Adoption kid get over it
It doesn't matter
It's in the past you can't change it
Mother loved you so much that she gave you up
Maybe you're lucky
Maybe you're much better off
You live with a complete stranger called Mom
You also live with a guy who's not your Dad
Maybe they love you like you were their own
But you'll never know
Cause they'd never tell if they don't
Adoption blues weighs in on you
No one to love you the way a real mother can
No one to talk to
Nobody understands
What does it feel like to be unwanted and unloved?
You live with a complete stranger called Mom
You also live with a guy who's not your Dad
Maybe they love you like you were their own
But you'll never know
Cause they'd never tell if they don't

One Day
One day your parents will get old
And you might put them in a home
What will that decision be like?
Sending them away
And after all they've done for you
One day your parents will be dead
And you will have to bury them
What do you think that will be like
Living without them
While their bodies rot beneath the ground?
One day everything will end
One day everything will end

Happily Ever After
The fairy tales your parents tell are lies
The real endings are scary and grotesque
They would make you scream until you cry
And you would toss and turn all night in bed
And they all lived happily ever after, is a lie
And they all died sad and alone, is the truth
I tell you it's true
Real life is oh so sad
The best you can hope for is to die in your sleep...
When you are old and frail
And life has left you miserable and weak
And they all lived happily ever after, is a lie
And they all died sad and alone, is the truth
I tell you it's true
You might be afraid of the Boogeyman
But that is something you should never fear
Cause real life is much worse
A blessing and a curse
As fast as it comes, it disapears
And they all lived happily ever after, is a lie
And they all died sad and alone, is the truth
I tell you it's true
