I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
You're living in the past it's a new generation
A girl can do what she wants to do and that's
What I'm gonna do
An' I don't give a damn ' bout my bad reputation

Oh no not me

An' I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
Never said I wanted to improve my station
An' I'm only doin' good
When I'm havin' fun
An' I don't have to please no one
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
I've never been afraid of any deviation
An' I don't really care
If ya think I'm strange
I ain't gonna change
An' I'm never gonna care
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

Pedal boys!

An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
The world's in trouble
There's no communication
An' everyone can say
What they want to say
It never gets better anyway
So why should I care
'Bout a bad reputation anyway
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don't give a damn 'bout my bad reputation
You're living in the past
It's a new generation
An' I only feel good
When I got no pain
An' that's how I'm gonna stay
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not
Not me, not me

(Gentry-Levine)

I know you know
Everybody knows it's true
I'm in love
But it's only make believe to you

I love your love
All the things that lovers do now, baby
I can tell
That's it's only make believe to you

I said uh-huh uh-huh uh
It's only make believe to you, yeah
It's only make believe
you're drivin' me insane
It's only make believe to you, yeah
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I can't stand the pain

I kiss you kiss
But I ain't gettin' through
No, I don't
'Cause it's only make believe to you

I cry, oh my
But you ain't cryin' too now, baby
No, you don't
'Cause it's only make believe to you

I said uh-huh uh-huh uh
It's only make believe to you, yeah
It's only make believe
you're drivin' me insane
It's only make believe to you, yeah
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I can't stand the pain

Make believe to you love
Make believe to you love

It's only, it's only
Make believe to you, love
It's only, it's only
Make believe to you, love

. . .


I was caught so unaware
When you made other plans
Promises you swore to keep
Were more than you could stand

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
Till it's gone

I was weak when you were there
And I felt so protected
But I'll make sure that you regret
The one that you rejected

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
Till it's gone

Shame on you, I gave you love
I gave you love so true
But you ran away
So you just don't know what cha' blew
Yeah, yeah

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
Till it's gone

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
Till it's gone

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
Till it's gone

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
Till it's gone

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
Till it's gone

. . .


You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys,
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys

And don't tell me what to do,
and don't tell me what to say,
and please when I go out with you,
don't put me on display,

You don't own me ,
Don't try to change me in any way,
You don't own me,
Don't tie me down caz i'll never stay,

I don't tell you what to say,
I don't tell you what to do,
So just let me be myself,
That's all I ask of you,

I'm young and I love to be young,
I'm free and I love to be free,
To live my life the way I want,
To say and do whatever I please.

I'm young and I love to be young,
I'm free and I love to be free,
To live my life the way I want,
To say and do whatever I please.

No no, you don't own me...you don't own me, you don't own me
we're young and we love to be young, you dont own me..

No no, you don't own me...you don't own me, you don't own me

(Resnick-Karp)

I heard your best friend say
You shouldn't have treated her that way
You could've been a little bit kinder
He didn't send you no note
Didn't give you no gift
He didn't even try to find ya

Well, that's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday

You were my love once
It lasted several months
And I was in love even blinder
When you left me I cried
All my tears haven't dried
So I'm leavin' this little reminder

Oh, it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
Oh, too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday

And now you're the girl
With cake on her face
Yeah, you're the one who's cryin'
Blow out the candles and make a wish
If you need a drink, babe
I'm buyin', yeah

Too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday

Woe, too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said that's too bad, that's too bad
Too bad on your birthday

That's too bad

. . .


We've been here too long
Tryin' to get along
Pretendin' that you're oh so shy
I'm a natural ma'am
Doin' all I can
My temperature is runnin' high

Cry at night
No one in sight
An' we got so much to share
Talking's fine
If you got the time
But I ain't got the time to spare
Yeah

Do you wanna touch (Yeah)
Do you wanna touch (Yeah)
Do you wanna touch me there, where
Do you wanna touch (Yeah)
Do you wanna touch (Yeah)
Do you wanna touch me there, where
There, yeah

Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Every girl an' boy
Needs a little joy
All you do is sit an' stare
Beggin' on my knees
Baby, won't you please
Run your fingers through my hair

My, my, my
Whiskey and rye
Don't it make you feel so fine
Right or wrong
Don't it turn you on
Can't you see we're wastin' time, yeah

Do you wanna touch (Yeah)
Do you wanna touch (Yeah)
Do you wanna touch me there, where
Do you wanna touch (Yeah)
Do you wanna touch (Yeah
Do you wanna touch me there, where
There, yeah

(Jett-Laguna-Cordell)

I walk alone with no tomorrow
Woah woe yeah, I do now
And there's a cause for all my sorrow
Woe woe, 'cause of you now
I wake up every mornin'
Sad and lonely, but it's only
That I haven't got the nerve to say it

Oh let me go, let me go
Oh let me go, let me go
Oh let me go, let me go

Just once I'd love to stand before you
Woe woe, yeah, I would now
I'd curse the day that I first saw you
Woah, woe, if I could then
I'd walk out with my head high
I'd be free but look at silly me
I haven't got the nerve to say it

Why should I live a lie
I could try
But it won't do us no good
Oh let me go, let me go
Oh let me go, let me go

It's just no good, I've got to tell you
Oh oh, an' I will now
Just say goodbye and wish me well
I've had my fill so
Go find somebody new to
play your tricks on, put your fix on
I hope you get what you deserve you bugger

(Jett-Laguna)

I ain't gonna fool around
I just know what you tried to do
An you know it gets me down
'Cause I really trusted you

I don't wanna see ya
Comin' round here no more
And I don't wanna see
Your face around here no more

It was such a sneak attack
That's not the way to treat a friend
Everytime I turned my back you got off
But that's all gonna end, right now

I don't wanna see ya
Hangin' round here no more
And I don't wanna see ya
Slippin' through my back door
So you'd better go now
You'd better go now
You'd better go right now
You'd better go now
You'd better go now
You'd better go right now
Now, now, now, goodbye

I don't wanna see your face around here no more
I don't wanna hear your voice
Around here no more
I don't wanna see you
Comin' (Hangin') round here no more

I don't wanna see you
Hangin' round here no more
I don't wanna see your face
Around here no more

I ain't gonna close my eyes
I know just what you'd love to do
It's no good to apologize
'Cause honey, you an me are through
Goodbye

You try to ace me
And I don't wanna see your face
Around this place no more
'Cause it's a bad thing you done
You're tryin' to wreck my fun
And I don't want cha here no more

Get out, Jezebel, no more

. . .


(Jett)

Before I was in
A rock n' roll band
I couldn't get the time of day
Now I'm doin' everything I can
I thought I had it made
Strangers drop in
And pretend they're friends
People I don't even know
I want you, I need you
It's so hard to tell
And what you're really feelin'
Won't show

Don't abuse me
Now you listen to what I say
If you're tryin' to use me
Why don't you just go away

You took me around
An' you showed me the town
I thought you were kind of nice
But if someone stepped in
With more to show
You'd drop me without thinkin' twice
You tie yourself to my apron strings
Thinkin' your friends will be impressed
You get your way by bribin' me
Tellin' me I'm the best

Don't abuse me
Now you listen to what I say
If you're tryin' to use me
Why don't you just go away

Who can I trust an' where can I go
To find someone who truly wants me
Take me for what I am
That's the way it's gotta be
Rock n' roll love you want so bad
Tellin' everybody you're mine
But we both know deep down inside
You're just diggin' for every dime

. . .


(Samudio)

One, two, three, four
All right
Watch it, watch it
Say man

Hattie told Mattie
About a thing she saw
Had two big horns
And a wooly jaw

Wooly Bully, Wooly Bully
Wooly Bully, Wooly Bully
Wooly Bully

Hattie told Mattie
Don't you take no chance
Don't you be L7
Come and learn to dance

Wooly Bully, Wooly Bully
Wooly Bully, Wooly Bully
Wooly Bully

Hey watch it now, man
Watch it, watch it

Mattie told Hattie it's the thing to do
Get yourself a filly
To pull the wool with you

Wooly Bully, Wooly Bully
Wooly Bully, Wooly Bully
Wooly Bully

You got it, you got it

Well I'm gonna raise a fuss
And I'm gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer
Just tryin' to earn a dollar
Well, I went to my boss
That governs me
He said "No, dice, bud
You gotta work late!"

Sometime I wonder
What I'm ever gonnna do
Well there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Well, my mom and papa told me
Now you better earn some money
If one of you is gonna go
Ridin' next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work
I told my boss I was sick
He said, "You can't use the car
'Cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometime I wonder
What I'm ever gonnna do
Well there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Gonna save two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem
To the United Nations
Well, I went to my Congressman
He sent me back a note
It said, "I'd like to help you, hon
But you're too young to vote"

Sometime I wonder
What I'm ever gonnna do
Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
