We must win the game
The crowd calls out for blood, the crowd calls out for blood

Never Show Weakness
03:07

We came to party
We came to make you smile
Don’t cry like a man
Laugh like a child!
We came to party
Realizing our dreams
The life of the party
The best gosh darn thing you've ever seen...
Oh but I'm not so certain
You see I don't know that I have what it takes...
NO! We must never. show. weakness
Never show weakness
Never show weakness
Never SHOW!
Weakness
(Hey! Hey!)
(Hey Hey!)
I am a filthy animal, a god in my own mind
Real mean, son-of-a-gun, one of a kind
Fearless warrior ahead of my time
With a steely resolve
And rock solid will
The voice in my head says obey the urge to kill
Oh but I'm not so certain (not so certain, see I don’t know…)
You see I don't know that I have what it takes (that I have what it oooh…)
Because when I see a little puppy dog,
Oh how my poor little little heart breaks
Poor little heart breaks…
NO! We must never show weakness
Never show weakness
Never show weakness
Never SHOW! Weakness

You take a risk, it doesn't work out…
Roll the dice
Roll the dice
This is a gambler’s paradise
The odds are stacked against you
You’ve lost more than once or twice
Still you roll the dice
Still you roll the dice
Roll the dice
You take a risk, it doesn’t work out
You play it safe, it doesn’t work out
You try to change and still you freak out
On and on and on again
Roll the dice
This is a gambler’s paradise
Kenny Rogers ain’t got shit on me - but he was right!
Don’t count that money at the table (rest in peace Kenny Rogers)
Unless you're ready, willing and able
To let that pony out the stable
You may be right to roll the dice!
The odds are stacked against you...
Roll the dice
You take a risk, it doesn’t work out
You play it safe, it doesn’t work out
You try to change and still you freak out
On and on and on again
You take a risk, it doesn’t work out
You play it safe, it doesn’t work out
You try to change and still you freak out
On and on and on again
Shake off that losing streak, no one can stop us now
We’ll get back on our feet, and no more hand-me-downs
You try to change and still you freak out
On and on and on again
And on and on and on and on and on again
This is a gambler’s paradise
This is a gambler's paradise
This is a gambler's paradise
This is a gambler's paradise

Whoa ho oh-oh-oh…hey yay…
You're walkin' around like an alpha male
But you're thin-skinned, crack you like an eggshell
Soft boiled, your too spoiled
You even got a personal masseuse to keep yourself oiled
You act like your life is crummy
But that's your own fault, dummy
Surrounded by enablers, I'm well grounded
And I'm here to do you good
Good for business, I'm good
Good for business
I'm good for business baby
You know me, better believe I'm the fearless type
I'm good for business baby
I'm here to help, I don't want your business to flounder
Back to basics, practice catching pop-flies and grounders
This is a wake-up call, this is a slap in the face
The truth hurts but it's addictive, once you get a taste
(Num num num num num num nah)
I might come across as an arrogant jerk
But the path to glory is paved with hard work
Shut your pie-hole! Start listening
Consistency and discipline are good
Good for business, I'm good
Good for business
I'm good for business baby
You know me, better believe I'm the fearless type
I'm good for business baby
I'm good for business baby
You know me, better believe I'm the fearless type
I'm good for business baby

Friday Night Lights
04:35
|
|||
You must be out of your mind
To think we could be defeated
We’ve crushed you every time
History will be repeated
Beyond the stands and the field, the demands of the fans
And the feeling you get when it slips through your hands
Last one to leave is the first one to show
The extra mile is a long way to go
I long to beat you every time we play
Under the Friday night lights
One way or another
I will grind you into dust
Whether on the field or in the streets at night
You must be out of your mind
To think we could be defeated
We’ve crushed you every time
History will be repeated
Beyond the weight of the bar and the way the that you weigh out
The whey protein at the end of the day
Last one to leave is the first one to show
The extra mile is a long way to go
Sports are the most important part of life
Winning is to live and losing is to die
Some may try to tell you different, don’t listen to their lies
Sports are the most important part of life
I long to beat you every time we play
Under the Friday night lights
One way or another
I will grind you into dust
Whether on the field or in the streets at night

City Boy Can't Handle It
03:35
|

Naaa, na na na na....naaa, na na na
Naaa, na na na na....naaa, na na na
Choppin’ wood, buildin’ a fire
Fixin’ the car, changin’ a tire
City boy can’t handle it!
He want his food from an organic farm
But he ain’t never set foot in a barn
City boy can’t handle it!
City boy can’t handle it!
He gets an upset stomach from the
Twists and turns of the country road
Aww and that city boy’s helpless without a WIFI code
He shivers in cold weather
Coughin and sneezin, coughin’ and sneezin'
I’m in my shorts, barbecuing outside
He’s bundled up inside freezing…
Dang city boy, you soft bro!
He drinkin’ craft beer, gluten free
In this town, we drink whatever we see
City boy can’t handle it!
I got dirt under my fingernail
He’s gettin’ a manicure
Buyin’ Polo shirts on sale
City boy can’t handle it!
City boy can’t handle it!
He rolls his eyes when I tell him that there’s
No dishwasher, we clean by hand
Wear the same white shirt but I
Spent five bucks on a no-name brand
He wants a peach mojito, I say
“Sorry buddy, we just got Jim Beam”
I’m drinkin’ black coffee, he’s at Starbucks
Sippin’ a macchiato with whipped cream
Naaa, na na na na....Naaa, na na na...
Naaa, na na na na....city boy can’t handle it!

I'm a Nice Guy
03:18

(Oh… Canada it’s loud…)
Fellas, I didn’t realize you were having a jam tonight
Well, I just put the kids to bed
And I don’t know if you realized but
IT’S PRETTY LATE!
Just put my PJ’s on
Got the C-PAP running… C-PAP!
Shades down, sip a calming tea
Then out of nowhere, I hear all this ruckus
Bibbidy bibbidy BAP!
I’m a nice guy (he’s a nice guy)
I’m a nice guy (he’s a nice guy)
Could you please keep it down a bit
LET ME GET SOME SLEEP!
I’m a nice guy (I’m a nice guy)
I’m a nice guy, very nice!
Could you please keep it down a bit
LET ME GET SOME SLEEP!
(You know guys, I get it…)
You look at me, you’re thinkin’ this guy’s not cool,
Well I USED TO BE COOL
Now I wake up early, put the kids get on the bus…
Put on your goddamn shoes! Rrrraaaahhh
And if I’m running late, I get stuck in traffic
An hour and 15 minutes each way,
Or even longer if there’s accident… there’s always an accident!
And I’m swamped at work,
I had to take Monday off to build a stable,
For my daughter’s Emotional Support Pony
I had to take a personal day!
I’m a nice guy (he’s a nice guy)
I’m a nice guy (he’s a nice guy)
Could you please keep it down a bit
LET ME GET SOME SLEEP!
I’m a nice guy (I’m a nice guy)
I’m a nice guy, very nice!
Could you please keep it down a bit
LET ME GET SOME SLEEP!
Look guys, I'm sorry but had to call the cops on the DIY venue
I didn’t want to do it!
I used to buy fanzines and act macho, down at the Big Bop
But those days are gone, muchacho!
I used to know the bass player from Mudvayne
He was my friend (friend… friend…)
Heard your cover of Husker Dü - more like Husker dön’t
I’m a nice guy (he’s a nice guy)
I’m a nice guy (he’s a nice guy)
Could you please keep it down a bit
LET ME GET SOME SLEEP!
I’m a nice guy (I’m a nice guy)
I’m a nice guy, very nice!
Could you please keep it down a bit
LET ME GET, LET ME GET
LET ME (get) LET ME (get) LET ME
Ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga

Catamaran

Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man tonight
Until the morning light
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man tonight
And it feels so right!
Now you know this ain’t my first time out on the water
But it’s been a long time since I felt that ocean breeze
Went foolin’ out in Manatoulin
Been ruffhousin’ on the thousand islands
Raised some hell in Cozumel
Whoa, I’m just
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man tonight
Until the morning light (morning light)
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man tonight
And it feels so right!
Have you ever met jabronies from Gibraltar... on a Kawasaki?
Have you ever gotten silly in the greater Antilles?
I didn’t think so
I visited lagoons on a pontoon
Got jolly on the beach in Bali
Falklands, yeah I know them well... so I’m just
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man tonight
Until the morning light (morning light)
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man tonight
And it feels so right!
Yes I am, yes I am (AY!)
Glidin’ on a Catamaran
Yes I am, yes I am (glidey, glidey, glidin’)
Glidin’ on a Catamaran
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man
Glidin' on a Catamaran to the Isle of Man
Tonight (tonight, tonight…)
