PUNK GIRL

People say she's bad
But they Don't see
The way she is with me

P is for the painful way she makes me feel some day
U is for Utopia, the other times with her
N is for the new wave dreams she had back in her teens
K is for the kid in her, my PUNK girl

She is honest and kind but in a way that people see
As telling lies and being mean
She has thousands of dreams but what they are I'll never know
I hope I figure in them though

I don't care if they can't see
Just how great that girl can be
But I wish, she'd find a way
To act well, for just one day

I don't mind if they can't see
Just how much she means to me
I still know what I will say
If that girl comes my way

She is hardened to hurt her softness hidden from the world
But almost ready to unfurl
She tries so hard to change but something always happens to
Persuade her its to hard to do

HEARTS & CROSSES

In every film she saw a girl never wanted more
Than some cool boy to love and hold her tight
She wasn't so naive to hope for Keanu Reeves
But still she thought a boy could make things right

How would it feel to hold someone real
To whisper I love you and lean on his shoulder?
How would her heart react to the part
Where he puts his lips close to hers and he holds her
He just holds her?

Melanie, Melanie Melanie lies down to sleep
with a head full of dreams and hatches up schemes
Melanie Melanie Melanie plays make believe
With a heart so enthused if never yet used.

Well Melanie looked cool and soon she had quite a pool
Of hopefuil lovers swooning at her feet
But only one stood out, the boy with the film start pout
Was this the boy to make her life complete?

Then one romantic day he took her hand and led her away
He pushed her down, removed his clothes, and put his body
closer than close
he held her mouth when she tried to scream
it was all so different from in her dream
he never smiled, he never whispered
he bit her hard, but never kissed her

Why does it feel so horribly real
when images of him float back into her mind?
Why does her heart hurt most at the part
when he gets up and disappears with no goodbye, with no goobye?

Melanie Melanie Melanie lies down to sleep
with a head full of dreams, such horrible dreams
Melanie Melanie Melanie plays make believe with a heart so confused
and feeling so used, no love left to lose.

ATTA GIRL

Cathy's part :
Yeah I always act so dumb
seem to fuck things up for fun
just can't stop myself behaving
like my head needs rearranging

i loved you a bit too much
yeah but shouldn't you be touched?
Seems that all i try to do
Is thrown back in my face by you

Why do you need other friends?
All those boys have their own ends
You just flirt and stay out drunk late
Till Im hurt and feel such dumb hate

i loved you from when we met
that's a night i won't forget
you came up i was so shy
i spilled my drink and almost cried

then after we'd been in love
for a year you'd had enough
Upped and left and walked out on me
Who's have guessed you'd turn out so mean?

What did I ever get from you?
Not enough to see me through
Never ever love enough
For confidence to make me tough

Honey please come back I miss you
yeah come here so i can kiss you
and i know you wanted this too
oh no please come back or i'll die
do you want to make a girl cry
or at least can't you tell me why?

You keep treating me like a fucking idiot
But I love you too much
O I don't know

Amelia's part
When you act so hopeless
Hopelessly in love
In fact I forget
Forget you're grown up
No I could never live up to all your dreams
I don't have to be cute right through and
Can't you concentrate on something other than me?

Cos I'm not yours
And never will be now
You've shown me how you are
If I speak to another
Oh can't you see
You've shown me how you are
You're jealous and how far
You tried so hard to smother

When we met
I thought that
that you were my dream
but yet it now seems
seems you turned out mean
how did you ever deserve so much from me?
I don't need you or your attitude and
Can't you just forget now that you ever met me?
FUCK YOU NO WAY
I DONT HAVE TO
DONT HAVE TO EXPLAIN

DIG YOUR OWN GRAVE

Don't come to close (Don't stay round here)
And please Don't phone (Even that's too near)
Cos If I see you (Things will end up just like before)
And If you touch me OOOHHH oooohhhh
ANd If I hear you (She will be lost to you once more)
But I don't want to

I remember yesterday
All you did was play (always) your (stupid) own (cruel) games
You make out you're so big
all you did was dig (you'll be) your (better) own (in your) grave
dig your own grave

You say you've changed (Well so has she)
You're playing different games (I wish that she could see)
But if you mean it (Her head is full of crazy dreams)
And if you'll hold me ooooh ooooh

I shouldn't trust you (if she'd just wake up she would see)
But I still want to

SO?

So I flirted to touch so maybe I laughed too much
So I teased you
So I said lots of stuff you interpreted as love
I didn't mean to

So you felt sure you were mine, I was yours
So I was dumb, not to make things clear before

So you hurt deep inside when I talked to other guys
SO i noticed
So you gave me your time, love and hope but i kept mine
so i'm selfish

But nothing I did or could ever have done
would justify what you did to me last night
