VERSE 1 they say say you’ll never make it but you take a stand when everybody sits it’s easier just to fit in going upstream is a bitter swim but life’s better when you know you have a choice sing proud when you finally find your voice freedom has the sweetest melody and we all just want to live in harmony PRE-CHORUS so when they tell you to walk straight but you wanna go your own way just remember where you come from you’re a child of the sun don’t let nobody hold your head down you were born to let your truth out just remember what you’re made of now it’s time to rise above CHORUS make your mark be a star a legacy be proud to be a black sheep it’s your time make it shine live your dreams be proud to be a black sheep VERSE 2 nobody wants to wake up thinking it's too late for me to find love don't be afraid take a chance jump in cause life's a dance there's a reason that we aren't made same a bigger purpose that our eyes can't see today raise your voice if you want a better way revolutionize a brand new day PRE-CHORUS so when they tell you to walk straight but you wanna go your own way just remember where you come from you’re a child of the sun don’t let nobody hold your head down you were born to let your truth out just remember what you’re made of now it’s time to rise above CHORUS BRIDGE (X2) You are a shooting star aim high and you’ll go far shine for the world to see it is your destiny CHORUS

[Verse 1] Now you say you're lonely You cried the long night through Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river I cried a river over you Now you say you're sorry For being so untrue Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river I cried, cried, cried a river over you [Chorus] You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head While you never shed a tear Remember, I remember, all that you said You told me love was too plebeian Told me you were through with me and [Verse 2] Now you say, you say you love me Well, just to prove you do Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river Cause I cried a river over you [Chorus] You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head While you never shed a tear Remember, remember, all that you said Told me love was too plebeian Told me you were through with me and Now, now you say you love me Well, just to prove you do Come on and cry, cry, cry me a river, cry me a river Cause I cried a river over you [Verse 3] If my pillow could talk, imagine what it would have said Could it be a river of tears I cried in bed? So you can cry me a river Daddy, go ahead and cry that river Cause I cried, how I cried a river over you How I cried a river over you

Verse 1 I love a Disney movie they’re so nice The princess always wins her man But I have lived the sequel once or twice My endings never feel so grand Verse 2 Prince charming picked me up and held me high But eventually he let me me down I was not the only apple of his eye There’s drama when you wear a crown Pre-chorus All my fantasies of love were born from a story book While my mama softly read And growing up was sounding fabulous But now I’m grown and the magic is dead Chorus There’s no perfect love affair Life is not a fairytale And it’s not a happy ending, no When you’re all alone I’m just a fairytale fail Verse 3 Life is delicious when you find the one After you’ve kissed a lot of frogs He grants your wishes and it feels like love Till he turns out to be a dog Pre-chorus All my fantasies of love were born from a storybook While my mama softly read And growing up was sounding fabulous But now I’m grown and the magic is dead Chorus There’s no perfect love affair Life is not a fairytale And it’s not a happy ending, no When you’re all alone I’m just a fairytale fail Bridge Maybe in a land far away I’ll meet my hero And pigs will fly around our unicorn As we sail over the rainbow Then I’ll wake up Chorus Cuz there’s no perfect love affair Life is not a fairytale And it’s not a happy ending, no When you’re all alone I’m just a fairytale fail

The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gay The glory that was Rome is of another day I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan I'm going home to my city by the Bay I left my heart in San Francisco High on a hill, it calls to me To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care My love waits there in San Francisco Above the blue and windy sea When I come home to you, San Francisco Your golden sun will shine for me When I come home to you, San Francisco Your golden sun will shine for me

I waited 'til I saw the sun I don't know why I didn't come I left you by the house of fun Don't know why I didn't come Don't know why I didn't come When I saw the break of day I wished that I could fly away Instead of kneeling in the sand Catching tear-drops in my hand My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind forever Out across the endless sea I would die in ecstasy But I'll be a bag of bones Driving down the road alone My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind forever Something has to make you run I don't know why I didn't come I feel as empty as a drum I don't know why I didn't come Don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come

Bad Guy 03:50
White shirt now red, my bloody nose Sleeping, you're on your tippy toes Creeping around like no one knows Think you're so criminal Bruises on both my knees for you Don't say thank you or please, I do What I want when I'm wanting to My soul? So cynical So you're a tough guy Like-it-really-rough guy Just-can't-get-enough guy Chest-always-so-puffed guy I'm that bad type Make-your-mama-sad type Make-your-girlfriend-mad type Might-seduce-your-dad type I'm the bad guy, duh I'm the bad guy I like it when you take control Even if you know that you don't Own me, I'll let you play the role I'll be your animal My mommy likes to sing along With me but she won't sing this song If she reads all the lyrics She'll pity the men I know So you're a tough guy Like-it-really-rough guy Just-can't-get-enough guy Chest-always-so-puffed guy I'm that bad type Make-your-mama-sad type Make-your-girlfriend-mad type Might-seduce-your-dad type I'm the bad guy, duh I'm the bad guy, duh I'm only good at being bad Bad I like when you get mad I guess I'm pretty glad That you're alone You said she's scared of me? I mean I don't see what she sees But maybe it's 'cause I'm wearing your cologne I'm a bad guy I'm, I'm a bad guy Bad guy, bad guy I'm a bad guy

Free 04:38
Verse 1 We were young, wild and free We were everything love should be Not a clue about the fortune in our hands Just an open road empty pockets Two brave souls in a rusty rocket Headed over the rainbow Looking for gold Prechorus We were unaware That we had it all We were kings who didn’t know That freedom we took for granted was a treasure trove Chorus Free free free in a diamond world Free free blessed are the boys and girls Verse 2 Crashing down on a thousand couches Late nights out full of weed and munchies No cash to our name but we had million dollar smiles We didn’t have iphones but we had endless talks About life and death and alan watts The whole universe was ours for a moment in time Prechorus We were unaware That we had it all We were kings who didn’t know That freedom we took for granted was a treasure trove Chorus Free free free in a diamond world Free free blessed are the boys and girls Bridge As I sit here writing this song I have to wonder are the riches all gone Or am I unaware that I still have it all Am I a queen who doesn’t know That the freedom I take for granted is a treasure trove Chorus

Verse 1 Do you ever wish for simpler times To get out from underneath our fancy lives We could pack a suitcase and fly away Just you and me in the clouds on an extended vacay Verse 2 Not too long ago we were satisfied With tiny treasures of a modest life Now we live like kings but emptiness is there In every corner of our grown up love affair Prechorus We’re working 16 hour days just to light our castle up So why does it feel like we’re living in the dark I wanna go back to the place where love was all we had And turn the hourglass back to the start Chorus I want to fly Across the sand To a time Where love began Where love began Verse 3 We could spend the weekend back where we met On top of the world without any regrets I don’t need my jewelry you don’t need your suits We’ll be naked in love with nothing to lose Prechorus Remember when we didn’t have two pennies to our name But we were happy living from our hearts I wanna go back to the place where love was all we had Turn the hourglass back to the start Chorus I want to fly Across the sand To a time Where love began Where love began Bridge Biggie smalls was right mo money mo problems I just wanna give it all away My mama was right mo money mo problems I just wanna give it all away Jesus Christ was right mo money mo problems I just wanna give it all away Chorus I want to fly Across the sand To a time Where love began To where love began

Crazy 04:50
Verse 1 I walked into a tree today cuz in every cloud I was seeing your face And I laughed through the pain I smiled at the rain pouring through my roof cuz the rainbow made me think of you Maybe I’m insane Pre-Chorus Maybe I’ve lost my mind Is it wrong to feel so right What used to make me cry Now only gets me high Chorus I love you making me Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy I love you making me Crazy I know I’m not acting like myself. And it’s good for my mental health I love you making me Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy Verse 2 I’m on cloud 9 yeah I think I’ll stay but my friends say I seem far away They don’t understand I used to be so serious Life’s problems weren’t so humorous I was in command Pre-Chorus Maybe I’ve lost my mind Is it wrong to feel so right What used to make me cry Now only gets me high Chorus I love you making me Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy I love you making me Crazy I know I’m not acting like myself. And it’s good for my mental health I love you making me Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy Bridge Falling so hard and so fast don’t care if I crash My heart says that I should relax there’s no turning back I’ve lost who I thought I was But I found myself in love Chorus I love you making me Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy I love you making me Crazy I know I’m not acting like myself. And it’s good for my mental health I love you making me Cray-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-azy

The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave To the dark and the endless skies, my love To the dark and the endless skies And the first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move in my hand Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command, my love That was there at my command, my love And the first time ever I lay with you I felt your heart so close to mine And I knew our joy would fill the earth And last 'til the end of time my love And it would last 'til the end of time The first time ever I saw your face Your face, your face, your face

Blue Skies 02:24
LyricsVideosListen Blue skies Smiling at me Nothing but blue skies Do I see Bluebirds Singing a song Nothing but bluebirds All day long Never saw the sun shining so bright Never saw things going so right Noticing the days hurrying by When you're in love, my how they fly Blue days All of them gone Nothing but blue skies From now on I never saw the sun shining so bright Never saw things going oh-so right Noticing the days hurrying by When you're in love, my how they fly Blue days All of them gone Nothing but blue skies From now on
