Songs I Forgot
Most of these I wrote rather quickly and had the tune in my head and didn’t want to forget it. So, these are haphazardly recorded and I’m fucking up all over the place. But most of them get the idea across.

Batter Up
Lyrics/Chords - Batter Up
CHORUS:
D E E D C B slide up to E
Batter Up! Yea! Yea!
E D C B
I’ll take your money or I’ll take your life
D E
Batter Up!
E D C B
Play the game and you might survive
D E
Batter Up!
Put your money where your mouth is.
Take a cut just like the masses.
Jump right in and take your chances.
We’ll show you just what real romance is.
The canyon’s wider than it was last night
I wanna jump but it seems so high
They made me think that it’s not worth a try.
But then it hit me, it’s all just a lie!
Batter Up!

BRIDGE = HALF TIME
F#m C#m
The man will come and take you away

And make you feel like it’s just another day

And when you wake up, you’ll realize
They’re gonna cut you, right down to size
Batter Up!

Media stories filled with fear
You’re gonna suffer, the end is near
What can I do? Let me protect you dear!
I can help, my voice is loud and clear!
I’m here to tell you it doesn’t have to be
The way they say, you think it should be
The truth is somewhere between you and me
Look deep inside, and then you will see
Batter Up!
But you chose to save your asses.
Batter Up!

Gonna Get Some
I Was Just Kiddin
Party - It's Saturday Night
Lyrics - Party - It's Saturday Night
50 miles outside the city
Born with a smile on my face
Cause I know I was so pretty
My momma told me every day
Sleep overs, awesome pillow fights
Couldn’t wait for Saturday
Me and my girls, we dim the lights
It’s time for us to partay!
—– CHORUS BEGIN —–
P. A. R. T. Y.
It’s finally Saturday night!
P. A. R. T. Y.
It’s time to party!
—– CHORUS END —–
Doing my face, curling my hair
Tight blue jeans, Abercrombe
Finding the perfect thing to wear
Wait till all the boys see me
Across the room, I see his eyes
I think he’s walking my way
Heart is racing, I’m gonna fly
Maybe tonight is the night
CHORUS
Walking the campus…oh my my
The boys have turned to hot men
Looks so good, I wanna die
I’m wondering if and when
Throw my hair back, hands on my hips
He looks up, nothing to say?
I move close and said “read my lips”
It’s time for us to partay!
CHORUS

C#m run down – F# to Dm
When you’re looking back at me

We just want to be

From the truth that was a lie
