God Made Me
(Chantal Kreviazuk/Chris Burke Gaffney)
(Got a quarter for the phone?)
I'm jaded
And you're beautiful
I'm deluded
And envious of you
You're carin'
That I'm hurtin'
But I'm laughing
'Cause I'm lyin'
And you believe what I say to be true
This is the way God made me
No self-reliance
No social skills
You're confident
And you express yourself so well
You're learned
Degrees upon your wall
I'm jealous
No invitations to the ball
This is the way God made me
This is the way God made me
No self esteem
You're picture perfect
You walk about so contented
The trees call out your(freakin')name
You're clean and I'm so ignorant
I'm basic and I'm jaded
And my excuses are so lame
This is the way God made me
This is the way God made me
This is the way God made me
I think this is just the way I'm meant to be yeah
This is the way God made me
Well there's no excuses it's just the way God made me
This is the way (hey yeah) God made me
It's just the way I am,
it's just the way I am,
It's just the way I am.

Surrounded
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
I was there
When you shone as bright as Bethlehem from afar
I was there
When you were young and strong and perverted
And everything that makes a young man a star
Oh you were a star
I was there
And I swear to God and on my mother's grave
On everything I have or ever will embrace
I was there
And I saw it with my own two eyes
And now it's all around me
It's all around me
I'm surrounded
And now it's all around me
It's all around me
You surround me like a circle
I was there
C'mon and tell me I wasn't worth
Stickin' it out for
Well I was there
And I know was worth it
'Cause if I wasn't worth it
That makes me worse off then you are
It's all around me
It's all around me
I'm surrounded
You know it's all around me
It's all around me
You surround me like a circle
But don't lose sight of me now
Don't you lose sight of me now
(do do do do do don't lose sight on me now)
'Cause I was there
When they dropped the bomb
Y'know I remember the bomb
And I still hear the bomb
And I still fight the bomb
You know I still fear the bomb
You know I still hate the bomb
Sometimes i still get the call
So don't lose sight of me now
Don't lose sight of me now (repeat as background vocals)
You know you're all around me
All around me
I'm surrounded
You know you're all around me
All around me
I'm surrounded
You know you're all around me
All around me
I'm surrounded
You know you're all around me
All around me
You surround me like a circle
I'm surrounded
Oh. Like a circle around me
la la la la yeah....around me now

Don't Be Good
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
I don't know when you learn it
But when you learn it you learn it fast
They're the ones who love to learn
They're not fast, they're nice guys
They finish last
They're waiting and wondering
Where did I go wrong
Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work you see
(do do do...)
Well I don't know when I learned it
But when I learned it I learned it fast
They're the ones that'd love to love me
They're not fast
They're nice guys, they finish last
They're waiting & wondering
Wondering where did I go wrong
Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't you be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work for me
(ahh...)
Waiting and wondering
Waiting and wondering
Wondering where did I go wrong
They're waiting and wondering
Waiting and wondering
Wondering

Wondering where did I go-
Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work you see

Don't be good
Don't be good
Don't you be good to me
Don't be good
Though you should
That won't work you see
So don't be good to me
Don't be good to me
Dont' be good to me
Good to me, good to me,
good to me, good to me
You're go good for me
Good for me, good for me.

Believer
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
I carry my microphone with me
Everywhere I go
It makes for a very good deadweight
In case of an emergency
In case I need to break your face
In case I need you to be dead
Who do you think you are?
Who do I think you are?
I know who you are
And it's hard to believe that
God made you and me with the same hands
With the same hands
Sit?
I tell my doggie to sit
But I am not a dog
But you make the animal in me
Want to come out all over you.
Who do you think you are?
Who do I think you are?
I know who you are
And it's hard to believe that
God made you and me with the same hands
With the same hands
Who do you think you are?
Who do I think you are?
I know-
Who do you think you are?
Who do I think you are?
I know who you are
And it's hard to believe that
God made you and me with the same hands
With the same hands, with the same hands.
With the same hands.
And it's hard to believe that I'm still a believer.

Grace
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
Please don't go
I can not breathe you in
Your air is too thick for me
And it makes my lungs sting
Please don't go
I can not walk beside
Think I'll stay behind a mile
'Cause I don't need you crampin' my style
How do you still have grace?
Mercy, mercy
To keep on kissing my face
Even though I am wrong, wrong,
Wrong, wrong
Please don't go
Without you I am weak
Find myself drinkin' and sinkin'
Seekin'
Please don't go
Sometimes it gets so cold
But I'd rather grab for a blanket
Instead of walkin' into your comfort zone
How do you still have grace?
And mercy, sweet mercy
To keep on kissing my face
Even though I am wrong, wrong,
Wrong, wrong
ooooh...
I know I've wronged you
I know I've hurt you
So many times
I hope I haven't scarred you
You still have grace
And you still have mercy
To keep on kissing my face
Even though I am wrong, wrong,
Wrong, wrong
You still have grace
Mercy, mercy
Keep on kissing my face
Even though I am wrong, wrong,
Wrong, wrong
If you keep kissing my face
One day I'll no longer do you wrong.

Wayne
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
I'll be the girl with the long blond hair
And the really pale skin if you care
I sit in the corner of the room
Cross legged and quiet filled with doom
I never ever liked the smell in here
It's cold and wet and reeks of beer
The lights are turned out permanently
But that's ok 'cause I don't want to see.
Wayne
Wait for me
Take me up in your hot-air balloon
And feed me cotton candy
Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then, wait for me
Who's the strange lady
With the big silly hair
And berries on her face
Dressed like a pear
Do I really have to hold her hand
And pretend she's my mommy,
You're the wife and man
When I know you're not my mommy
It's crowded and I feel
Lost in here
I'm trying to find a familiar fear
I look everywhere
But I just can't see
There's not anything that reminds me
Of me ...oh
Wayne
Wait for me
Take me up in your hot-air balloon
And feed me cotton candy
Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then, wait for me
You make me fresh as flowers
Under these rocks and stones
Wayne
Wait for me
Take me up in your hot-air balloon
And feed me cotton candy
Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then, wait for me
Take me up in your hot-air balloon
And feed me cotton candy
Wayne
Pray for me
'Cause I'll be there in a couple of years
Until then, wait for me.

Imaginary Friend
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
It scares me to speak my mind
It might sound self-absorbed
I don't say half of what I think
I wonder what I'm thinkin' for
I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up pen
Wish I still had my imaginary friend
And who needs to listen, well...
What do I have to sell
Everyone's just waitin for their own turn
Kind of like show and tell
I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up pen
Wish I still had my imaginary friend
Wish I still had my imaginary friend
Someone to listen
Someone to laugh
Someone to cry at the right times
I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up pen
You know that I'm smelling dead flowers
And listening to the walls again
I'm drinking from a leaky faucet
And writing with this dried up pen
Wish I still had my imaginary friend
Wish I still had my imaginary friend
And I would call him up
But I don't remember his name

Hands
(Chris Burke-Gaffney)
oh...
There's a man outside my door tonight
He cries for help, he sings a pleading song
Well times are tough for everyone
Gotta hold on to what I got
And just kind of cruise along
Well I do
Want to be helpful
But it's cold and I'm told
You can't be too careful
Out of the mouth of a mother
Into the hands of a brother
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another
-doo doo doo, doo doo doo- (you know you wanted to sing those)
You can never tell who your neighbour is
Or what he's doin' at night or who his friends are
Well you don't know where he's from
Or where he's been or who he knows
You know you can't be too careful
These days
Well I do want to be helpful
Whoa but it's cold
And I'm told he might just be the devil
Out of the mouth of a mother
Into the hands of a brother -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-
Well I don't take chances
And I don't take time to see
And I don't take nothing
From nobody
No way - not me -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-
Oh! -doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo-
Out of the mouth of a mother
Into the hands of a brother -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-
Out of the mouth of a mother oh!
Into the hands of a brother -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-
Into the heart of a lover oh!
And out of the hands of child
Into the eyes of a child
Into the ears of a child
Into the heart of a child -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-
Into the heart of a child -doo doo doo, doo doo doo-

Co-Dependant

In your intellect
The water's so shallow
And the dialect

But I eat it up
Like Bologna

Well I

But I
Defend it
And I
Can't comprehend it
'Cause I'm

When you go fishing
For a compliment

So obvious
But I can't help it,
So I put up with it
'Cause you're my habit
And I just can't quit
Well I
Should end it
But I
Defend it
Well I
Keep on pretendin'

The world keeps spinnin'
Lucifer keeps sinnin'
The joker keeps grinnin'

Green Apples (goo's song)
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
You're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows
Beside a setting sun
You're wood burnin' outside
There a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one
You bring me to the heart of a golden man
You bring the natural truth
You take me to a solid hollow
And keep me sailing in this ocean of youth
That's why you're
You're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows
Beside a setting sun
You're wood burnin' outside
There a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one
So take me to an altar of diamonds
And run with me through the sheets of jungle rain
Show me all your manly mystery
And let me heal your beautiful pain
Be my island in crowds of faces
My oasis
Be there
Lead me to the holy water
Introduce me to the place you are from
Wherever you go you know I will follow
So take me there and I will come, I will come
You're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows
Beside a setting sun
You're wood burnin' outside
There a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one
I say that you're toast and jam
And you're cotton candy
You're double rainbows
Beside a setting sun
You're wood burnin' outside
There a fire growin'
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one
You're sweet as green apples
You must be the one.

Boot

Never been here before
Never opened up this door
But I got a feelin'
It's just like the others
Never heard him laugh before
Never felt him feel before
But I got a feeling
It's just like the others
He's got a big boot
He's got a big hand
And he's got a big fist
To put me down
Here we go again
Never heard him lie before
Never heard him cry before
But I got a feeling
It's like the others
Never heard him dream
Never felt it before
But I got a feeling
It's just like the others
He's got a big boot
He's got a big hand
He's got a big fist
To put me down
He's got a big mouth
And I know he's got some big words
He's got a big knife
To cut me down
Is it all,
Is it all because of the fall
But it's not my fault
How long, how, how long -
How long
Do I have to long
Never been here before
Never walked through this door
But I got a feeling it won't be
Like the others
Even though
he's got a big boot
And he's got a big hand
And he's got a big fist
To put me down.....
He's got a big mouth
And he's got a lot of big words
I bet he's got a big knife
To you know cut me, cut me down

Bet he's got some bad words

Why don't you try to cut me down

Actions Without Love

He ran a marathon
He didn't quite finish
He didn't quite cross the finish line
Actions without love
It never really crossed his mind
He sure got the accent down
And he sure can swoon the ladies
And ya know
One day he'll learn
Actions without love
Actions without love
The whole bloody language
She pulled out her chequebook
She asked what the date was
She had to double-check
Actions without love
Actions without love
She had to have an audience
Actions without love
Actions without love

Dealer

Thanks Adam!
That puts me in a good mood, thinkin' about surfing.
Wow, you should go surfing.
You should go surfing.
Surf this groovy vibe.
Aaah....
I'm gonna be a rich girl
Some kind of philanthropist
I'm gonna get high, get pissed
I'll be addicted to nothin'
Gonna be a wife and a mom
And when I call, people will come
Everybody will listen to me
But my hands will stay clean
Chorus:
Did you see it?
Did you see the finer print?
There are applicable taxes
Details inside the package
See my dealer for contest rules
I'm gonna go hungry
Gonna fight the fight
I'm gonna learn to go without
But I'm feeling no hunger pain
I'm gonna carry the cross
Like I carry the weight of the world
'N' cry all the tears
But I know it's not going to hurt
Chorus (Repeat)
I'll see my dealer (x2)

Leaving On A Jet Plane
(John Denver)
Thanks Junnie Cheung!
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go,
I'm standing here outside your door,
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.
But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn,
the taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn.
Already I'm so lonesome I could die.
So kiss me and smile for me,
tell me that you'll wait for me,
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
I don't know when I'll be back again,
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
There's so many times I've let you know down,
so many times I've played around,
But I tell you now, they don't mean a thing.
Every place I go I'll think of you,
every song I sing I'll sing for you,
when I come back I'll wear your wedding ring.
So kiss me and smile for me,
tell me that you'll wait for me,
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
I don't know when I'll be back again,
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
Now the time has come to leave you
one more time, oh, let me kiss you,
and close your eyes, and I'll be on my way.
Dream about the days to come,
when I won't have to leave you alone,
about the times I won't have to say:
Oh kiss me and smile for me,
tell me that you'll wait for me,
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
I don't know when I'll be back again,
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
I'm leaving on a jet plane,
I don't know when I'll be back again,
Oh, babe, I hate to go.

Feels
Like Home
(Randy Newman)
Something in your eyes,
makes me want to lose myself,
Makes me want to lose myself, in your arms.
There's something in your voice,
makes my heart beat fast.
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life.
If you knew how lonely my life has been,
And how long I've been so alone.
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along,
And change my life the way you've done.
It feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from.
It feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong.
A window breaks down a long dark street,
And a siren wails in the night.
But I'm all right, 'cause I have you here with me.
And I can almost see through the dark there's light.
If you knew how much this moment means to me,
And how long I've waited for your touch.
And if you knew how happy you are making me,
I've never thought I'd love anyone so much.
Chorus
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong.

Too much of a fuss
Perhaps it's because it's not, it's not sad enough
Where were you when they

And how are you
are you feeling blue
You've never seen the colour blue
Call me in the morning
We'll go for toast and tea
Where were you when they

Ah ah ah ah ah ...
You'll never know how you run me down
And I don't even need you, no
Still you keep me holding on
For dear life
Ah ah ah ah ah...
If you live a loveless life
Just blame it on me
On the count of oblivion

Ah ah ah ah ah...
No we've never been away from here
So we'll try to lose ourselves again
No we've never been away from here

Still I keep on holding on for dear life
Ah ah ah ah ah...
No we've never been away from here
So we'll try to lose ourselves again
No we've never been away from here
So we'll try to lose ourselves again
When you're cold and under the covers
Does it ever bother you
Do you remember how warm the truth is
How can you live without it
No we've never been away from here
So we'll try to lose ourselves again
No we've never been away from here
So we'll try to lose ourselves again
We've never been away from here
So we'll try to lose ourselves again
No we've never been away from here

Until We Die
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
Back to the top I could almost remember your face
When I heard your voice today
I could see your lips moving
At the other end of the receiver
It was almost a very good bye
But dial tones tend to make me cry
I call back within moments
You laugh and don't even ask why
That's what we do
Can we do it until we die
You don't see me but I feel so exposed
Each time there's a pause on the phone
I wish there was another button to press
So I could read your mind
In heaven we won't have to call
I'll be with you spring summer and fall
But for now soon you'll be here
And heal in my arms as the night goes by
That's what we do
Can we do it until we die
So for now soon you'll be here
And heal in my arms as the night goes by
That's what we do
Can we do it until we die
That's what we do
Can we do it until we die

All I feel is I am holding on

We will always grow
Our skin will fade transcend beyond

Before You
(Chantal Kreviazuk/Jay Joyce)
Baby before you
Well I was bad news
In letting me love you
I think I can get through
Oh baby before you
I was so scared
I was a train wreck waiting to happen
On the way to nowhere
And now I think it's kind of funny that you say you love me
You tell me that I'm crazy then you smile
And now I think I'll get through
The end of the world
Now I think I'll get through
Being a girl
Now I think I'll get through
Anything
Now I think I'll get through
Now honey around you
I'm feeling so good
Cause you picked me up out of the rough
And you polished me up and made me brand new
Now baby before you ho ho
There was just a black hole
Yah I was beat down blacked out
My darling you couldn't even know
But ever since I met you on a cloudy Monday
I can't believe how much I love the rain
And now I think I'll get through
The end of the world
And now I think I'll get through
Life as a girl
Now I think I'll get through
Anything
Now I think I'll get through
Ever since I met you on a cloudy Monday
I can't believe how much I love the rain
And now I think I'll get through
The end of the world
And now I think I'll get through
Life as a girl
Now I think I'll get through
Anything
Now I think I'll get through
Oh oh...
Oh oh...
And now I think I'll get through
Oh oh...
And now I think I'll get through
Oh oh...
And now I think I'll get through
And now I think I'll get through
Oh and now I think I'll get through

M
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
They must mean business
To say there's nothing worse
Than to let your precious love child
Leave the planet first
Cause oh they've got to just let her go
All the things that you swear you're gonna do
Reservations on the next train to the moon
Pack your things Ścause there ain't no time to lose
And all the things you never
So I think we're gonna have to record her
Sometimes against her will
We're gonna keep her alive with black and whites
Colour moving and still
And then oh they've got to just let her go
All the things that you swear you're gonna do
Reservations on the next train to the moon
Pack your things Ścause there ain't no time to lose
Let her go
All the things that you swear you're gonna do
Reservations on the next train to the moon
Pack your things Ścause there ain't no time to lose
All the things that you swear you're gonna do
Reservations on the next train to the moon
Pack your things Ścause there ain't no time to lose
No time to lose

Soul Searching
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
You were searching for a soul
Tearing yourself apart
Just to become a whole oh
You were walking down the road
Only to find your reflection
In the puddles below
Uh oh you're soul searching
I see that dangerous look in your eyes
Uh oh you're soul searching
But is a soul really worth your whole life
In these circles you seem to go
Never finding the centre
Never finding your way home
And do you ever see yourself
When you look in the mirror
Or is it a reflection of everyone else
Uh oh you're soul searching
I see that dangerous look in your eye
Uh oh you're soul searching
But is a soul really worth your whole life
There's a part of me that wants to hold you
And tell you everything is gonna be OK
And there's a part of me that
Wants to shake you
And tell you there's no such thing
As a soul anyway
I see that dangerous look in your eyes
Uh oh you're soul searching
But is a soul really worth your whole life

Far Away
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
Back to the top Make me believe in you
Honestly for real; one thing true
Take me in, in your arms
Wandering alone seems so far
Let me know that you've
made it as far as forever
Let me know that you
hear when I cry if you can
You're far away from me
You're far away from me
You're far away from me
Come a little closer
Just a little
Let me know heaven sees
Shines on life our memories...
Make me feel all that you are
Angel child or a radiant star
Cause I know that we'll meet up again in forever
Let me know you'll be waiting for me in the end
You're far away from me
You're far away from me
You're far away from me
Come a little closer
Just a little
You're far away from me
You're far away from me
You're far away from me
Come a little closer
Just a little
Just a little

Eve
(Chantal Kreviazuk)
Eve is gone again
Back to her palace, back to her island
Eve can smile again
And run round the hedges in the Garden of Eden
Run the way you did before the nightmares
Run just like before the overkill
Run the way you did it's over darling
Oh, could I be so gentle
Oh, so soft and tender
Oh and could I forgive
And could I die in my mother's arms like her
Eve's a child again
Sing her a lullaby
Read to her every night
Eve's in heaven
Plenty of friends are there
No one the enemy
Run the way you did
Before the nightmares
Run just like before the
Overkill
Run the way you did it's
Over darling
Oh, could I be so gentle
Oh, so soft and tender
Oh and could I forgive
And could I die in my mother's
Arms like her
Like her
Run the way you did
Before the nightmares
Like her
Run just like before the
Overkill
Like her
Run the way you did it's
Over darling
Like her
Run the way you did
Before the nightmares
Like her
Run just like before the
Overkill
Like her
Run the way you did it's
Over darling
Could I die in my mother's
Arms like her

Little Things
(Chantal Kreviazuk/Raine Maida)
Misery's turning my luck around
Framed all the faces on my way down
I don't have a reason, a reason to lie
That dull pain is screaming to be left behind
Oh...
It's never easy to see your past
Unfold before you, the outcast
You don't have a reason, a reason to cry
Caterpillars turn into rare butterflies
Oh...woa....
The little things we hide
The little things inside
Don't want to show them and I'll be alright
Oh, oh...
Humility's easing my ego down
The past holds the truth like a lost and found
There's no need to worry, no need to be scared
Cause little things will come along
And life's never fair
No
Oh, oh...
The little things we hide
The little things inside
I don't want to show them that I'll be alright
Oh, oh...
Everything is gonna be
Everything is alright
Everything is gonna be
Everything is alright
Is alright
Is alright
The little things we hide
The little things inside
I don't want to show them that we'll be alright
The little things we hide
The little things inside
I don't want to show them that I'll be alright
Oh, oh...
