and it makes me wonder, what kinda spell we're under
what would jack and diane do?
4. Alyana(feat. De La Soul)
Hold up livin in Bo dega
Met a girl by the name of Alayna
She said she wants to marry me
But her Ex-boyfriend's getting mad at me
I said you take the high road
I'll take the low
And I'll meet you somewhere they don't know
Lalalalalala
Girl this time I think I went to far
When I met you girl I feel like this cold world has been good to me
Make me feel like I can see through the birds and the bees you put my mind at ease
And I, don't really know what to do, one look and I find myself in love with you
Miss Alayna so why no man can contain ya
Strum my guitar; keep her hot like a cradle
And I, don't know which way to go
And I, should've never let my feelings show
Could it be my life's been takin
I can feel my young heart breakin
Hold up livin in Bo dega
Met a girl by the name of Alayna
She said she wants to marry me
But her Ex-boyfriend's getting mad at me
I said you take the high road
I'll take the low
And I'll meet you somewhere they don't know
Lalalalalala
Girl this time I think I went to far
At the saloon, old man drink the whisky
Doors wide open, glass breaks lies a misty
And I can feel a purple haze
Take the stroll across the bridge to where Alayna lays
Brown eyes, when I treat my thoughts at night
Gypsy woman look ahead and says she sees a fight
See piranha, fall to my knees beg Madonna
Please be with me cause I feel I'm a gonner
And I, don't know which way to go
And I, should've never let my feelings show
Could it be my life's been takin
I can feel my young heart breakin
Hold up livin in Bo dega
Met a girl by the name of Alayna
She said she wants to marry me
But her Ex-boyfriend's getting mad at me
I said you take the high road
I'll take the low
And I'll meet you somewhere they don't know
Lalalalalala
Girl this time I think I went to far
Hold up that's what I told my love
We need to think this through before I start to bug
I pluck, wonder why with my eye on the prize
But this creepin around yo it's hard to devise
A union between us the bus soon come
Now you ass shows up to play rump a bump pum
He better undersand you ain't some lawn I mowed
Your love is simply for me to park in
His ass will get towed
Girl troubles havin holiday and hotels
Yakin on your coat tails
Every now and then I catch dreams
Of your high yellow ask you for nickel
Yo you got your self a dime
Stuck in a in a lock and mined
I know I shouldn't touch it but I wanna bruise the spine
She the type that make you buy a little box, little rock
Wrapped around the mic (poof) Dynomite (poof)
Genie in a bottle (put) powder might as well coh rah
don't know which way to go
And I, should've never let my feelings show
Could it be my life's been takin
I can feel my young heart breakin
Hold up livin in Bo dega
Met a girl by the name of Alayna
She said she wants to marry me

6. Dandelion(feat. Kelis)
Saw her on a Friday outside someone run down saloon
She was cryin over someone she felt left much too soon
I said, hey girl don't you cry tonight
let me take you out on this town
She looked at me and smiled as one last tear splashed off the ground
with half a wink she asked me would I use some kind of creep
I told her no, I guess I just feel your vibe is kinda deep
the moon hung over soho
and I counted 16 stars
I pointed at the brightest one and said now that one's ours
She's a dandelion, up on her hill above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be
She's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed
Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
I just be poison
but I took he took me to his roof top
He said are you afraid of heights,
I said no I am not
He said hey girl don't you lie to me, tell me everything you feel
we danced around in circles,
He said I think we found something real
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be
she's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed
Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
Down in union square
I saw her walking all alone
I walked a little slower just so I'd remain unknown
she met someone on seventeenth that she knew him all too well
my little piece of heaven has a secret she won't tell
with half a smile she took his hand
and then they walked away
I realized I would not see my girl after today
I fell in love with a dandelion
and she's all I ever had
at first she looked so sweet
but in the end she tastes so bad
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be
she's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed
Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
And I tell myself
hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
yeah hold on
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be
She's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed
Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
7. Life Is Good(feat. M.O.P.)
la life is unbelievable
la life is good
life is good
life is great
life is unbelievable
life is hard, life is cruel
life is so beautiful
ooh yeah ooh yeah
la life is unbelievable
oh yeah oh yeah
la life is unbelievable
somewhere in life and yet on my way to anywhere
a woman named Betris serves me coffee
and she smiled as if she cares
it reminds me of this painting
that I think I've often seen
the kings behind the counter
serving coffee to James dean
life is good
life is great
life is unbelievable
life is hard, life is cruel
life is so beautiful
ooh yeah ooh yeah
la life is unbelievable
oh yeah oh yeah
la life is unbelievable
On my way to garden city
On my way to anywhere
A guy named Patrick gives me directions
and he smiles as if he cares
it reminds me of this movie
that I think I've often seen
pretty much this situation
except I'd still be Steve McQween
So what would you do if you wake tomorrow
no more sorrows, your dreams came true
so knock on wood and cross your fingers
and count your blessings
it might be you
So what would you do if you wake tomorrow
All your gray sky's turned blue
how many days do you think your given
so get on livin it's up to you
Life is good
life is great
life is unbelievable
life is hard, life is cruel
life is so beautiful
ooh yeah ooh yeah
la life is unbelievable

If he so loves the sun

yo I be slippin a rippin the party till the break of dawn
if you love rich nice
or you hate rich nice
take my advice and just live up your life ('cause it's your's)
Hey if your mess'n with the sacred world
It's a never ending test
I don't know where to begin
And I feel I'm at an end
I don't wanna live life
doing petty nonsense
It's hard to sleep at night
With a guilty conscience
You know It's really a mess
Now I feel blessed
When 20 Minutes from now
It'll all turn to stress
I'm 27 years, All those Brownsville cheers
I'm stuck with all the blood, the sweat and the tears
baby It's on,
A mother sheds tears at the same time a baby is born
On the other side of town a life is lost
A young thug was knocked off and the heat was tossed
damn
Life is real, it's so trife
but don't stop now Live your life
I know it's hell for the rough
but don't talk down on your man,
unless your helping him out
It's yours
So what would you do if you wake tomorrow
no more sorrows, your dreams came true
so knock on wood and cross your fingers
now count your blessings
It might be you
So what would you do if you wake tomorrow

how many days do you think your given
so get on livin , it's up to you
Life is good
life is great
life is unbelievable
life is hard, life is cruel
life is so beautiful
ooh yeah ooh yeah

9. What If
Played a part of Joe D'maggio
oh where'd that horse and carriage go?
In the castle I'll build for you
on an island meant just for two
would it be just stuck around
what if all that's lost was found
what if I could be, the only one that she'd ever dream of
If I were some movie star
with some big expensive car
at some big first night premiere
with Ben Affleck and Richard Gere
would you give me just one look
if I wrote some obscure book
would you give me just one chance
in some other circumstance
Someone like me, deserves someone like you
lalalalalalalala
Played a part of Joe D'maggio
oh where'd that horse and carriage go?
In the castle I'll build for you
on an island meant just for two
would it be just stuck around
what if all that's lost was found
what if I could be, the only one that she'd ever dream of
If I was the great Houdini
granting wishes like a geni
If I were some big tough guy
who went to Mars and made you cry
told you lie couse they say
nice guys will lose anyway
In some other circumstance
would you give me just one chance?
Someone like me, deserves someone like you
lalalalalalalala
Played a part of Joe D'maggio
oh where'd that horse and carriage go?
Or the castle I'll build for you
on an island meant just for two
would it be just stuck around
what if all that's lost was found
what if I could be, the only one that she'd ever dream of
What if I (What if I was the only one)
what if I was the only one
If I were a super hero
a good fella like De'niro
if I could face all my fears
and dated girls like Britney Spears
wore black leather on a Harley
in Jamaica like Bob Marley
in some other circumstance
would you give me just one chance?
Played a part of Joe D'maggio
oh where'd that horse and carriage go?

10. Gravity
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
Put me on the cover of Rollin stone
pat me on the back when I come back home
tell me things that I like to hear
I hold back, but you still come near
say you care, and you won't let go
I'm in a world that I just don't know
give me things that I need to fill me
tell me that this gravity won't kill me
And you don't have to cry for me
and you don't have to lie for me
this whole blue sky is falling down on me
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
Full of dreams can't come up short
drivin down south is my last resource
let me shine on MTV
say your proud and happy for me
look in my eyes, guess how I feel
cause now-a-days life's so surreal
give me things that I need to fill me
tell me that this gravity won't kill me
And you don't have to cry for me
and you don't have to lie for me
this whole blue sky is falling down on me
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
I feel gravity, holdin me down
keepin my feet on the ground every time your around
I feel gravity
and I don't know what to do
I keep on runnin from you
