Lyrics


1. COMPLICATED (THE MATRIX MIX)

Life's like this
That's the way it is
'Cause life's like this
That's the way it is

Chill out - What cha yelling for?
Lay back - It's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see
I like you the way you are
When we're driving in your car
And you're talking to me one on one
But you become

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody else 'round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool
You look like a fool to me
Tell me

[Chorus]
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
See the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this - You
You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into
Honestly promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No No No

You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are ain't - Where it's at you see
You're making me laugh out
When you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know you're not fooling anyone
When you become

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

No No No
No No No
No No No

Chill out - What cha yelling for?
Lay back - It's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus] [x2]


2. GIRLFRIEND (DR. LUKE MIX)

Lil Mama and Avril Lavigne Remix
Lil Mama and Avril Lavigne Remix
Lil Mama and Avril Lavigne Remix
Lil Mama and Avril Lavigne

[Chorus]
Hey Hey You You I don't like your girlfriend
No way No way I think you need a new one
Hey Hey You You I could be your girlfriend
I could be your girl Lil Mama be your girlfriend
Hey Hey You You I know that you like me
No way No way No it's not a secret
Hey Hey You You I want to be your girlfriend
I could be your girl Lil Mama be your girlfriend

Don't get it twisted Lil Mama got my paper on
That means I'm a paper chaser I chase my paper on
And I know we chasing paper that you be chasing on
I just deliver the lyrics that people focus on
Hands and a boob and a chopped up song
Put it in a store and they go cops on
Everybody know that it's no combo
You better lay low like popo
Case you ain't know better already know
I go in like project so
So get it biggie mama b-r-double o-k-lyn drama

[Chorus]

Please ain't party stop
All I knows sixteen to pop
Told you you all better act on top
Been doing this since hop more pop
Ah tell the brother can't stop
For all the mans I'm cracked on rocks
For all the mans they love my mass
Style so I gotta go hard
Der than I did before
Her style is crossover
Pee wee curling Lil Mama
Miss stuff is going in
So when you see me in the drop top shades
In the summer time blazing you wanna be my boyfriend

[Chorus]

[X2]
In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger
Cause I can - Cause I can do it better
There's no other so when's it gonna sink in?
She's so stupid - What the hell were you thinking?

You wave goodbye
Your girls a bird
You're by my side
Make it work
You and her that sounds absurd
Me and you go better you heard?
You ain't hear any dumb girls laugh in the back
That's 'cause I speak crack on the track
I'm gonna keep it real boy
I'm trying to mack
Let me know if you down with that
Me and yo girlfriend we ain't no tie
You better ask T.I.
I'm telling you like Jennifer Hudson
I got plastic elastic in the back
Of the Jaguar sure 'cause that's what's popping
Tiger purses bank is filled
I'm mad 'cause this is nothing

[Chorus]

Lil Mama and Avril Lavigne
No way No way Hey Hey


3. HOT (W LFD KR I) (WOLFDECK REMIX)

You're so good to me Baby Baby

[Chorus]
You make me so hot
Make me wanna drop
You're so ridiculous
I can barely stop
I can hardly breathe
You make me wanna scream
You're so fabulous
You're so good to me Baby Baby
You're so good to me Baby Baby

I want to lock you up in my closet - Where no one's around
I want to put your hand in my pocket - Because you're allowed
I want to drive you into the corner - And kiss you without a sound
I want to stay this way forever - I'll say it loud
Now you're in - You can't get out

[Chorus]

I can make you feel all better - Just take it in
And I can show you all the places - You've never been
And I can make you say everything - That you never said
And I will let you do anything - Again and again
Now you're in - You can't get out

[Chorus]

Kiss me gently
Always I know
Hold me - Love me
Don't ever go

You make me so hot
Make me wanna drop
You're so ridiculous
I can barely stop
I can hardly breathe
You make me wanna scream
You're so fabulous
You're so good to me

[Chorus]

You're so good


4. SK8ER BOI (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

He was a boi - She was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
He was a punk - She did ballet
What more can I say?
He wanted her - She'd never tell
Secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends stuck up their nose
They had a problem with his baggy clothes

He was a sk8er boi
She said "See you later boi"
He wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face
But her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to earth

Five years from now - She sits at home
Feeding the baby - She's all alone
She turns on TV - Guess who she sees
Sk8er boi rocking up MTV
She calls up her friends - They already know
And they've all got tickets to see his show
She tags along - Stands in the crowd
Looks up at the man that she turned down

[x2]
He was a sk8er boi
She said "See you later boi"
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a superstar
Slamming on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?

Sorry girl but you missed out
Well tough luck that boi's mine now
We are more than just good friends
This is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn't see
See that man that boi could be
There is more than meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside

He's just a boi and I'm just a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
We are in love - Haven't you heard
How we rock each others world?

[x2]
I'm with the sk8er boi
I said "See you later boi"
I'll be backstage after the show
I'll be at out studio
Singing the song we wrote
About the girl you used to know


5. MY HAPPY ENDING (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

So much for my happy ending

Let's talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread

[Pre-Chorus]
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be

[Chorus]
You were everything - Everything
That I wanted
We were meant to be - Supposed to be
But we lost it
All of our memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the shit that you do

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you care
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done

He was everything - Everything
That I wanted
We were meant to be - Supposed to be
But we lost it
All of our memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy

[Chorus]


6. TAKE ME AWAY (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

I cannot find a way to describe it
It's there inside
All I do is hide
I wish that it would just go away
What would you do?
You do if you knew
What would you do?

[Chorus]
All the pain
I thought I knew
All the thoughts lead back to you
Back to what
Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion
I'm unable come and take me away

I feel like I'm all alone
All by myself I need to get around this
My words are cold
I don't want them to hurt you
If I show you
I don't think you'd understand
'Cause no one understands

[Chorus]

I'm going nowhere on and on and
I'm getting nowhere on and on and on
I'm going nowhere on and on and off
and on and off and on

[Chorus]

Take me away [x3]


7. NOBODY'S HOME (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it every day
And I couldn't help her
I just watched her make
The same mistakes again

What's wrong - What's wrong now?
Too many - Too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs

[Chorus]
She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside

Open your eyes
And look outside
Find the reasons why
You've been rejected
And now you can't find
what you've left behind

Be strong - Be strong now
Too many - Too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs

[Chorus]

Her feelings she hides
Her dreams she can't find
She's losing her mind
She's falling behind
She can't find her place
She's losing her faith
She's falling from grace
She's all over the place
Yeah

[Chorus]

She's lost inside - Lost inside
She's lost inside - Lost inside


8. HE WASN'T (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

There's not much going on today
I'm really bored it's getting late
What happened to my Saturday?
Monday's coming the day I hate

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll sit on my bed alone
Staring at the phone

[Chorus]
He wasn't what I wanted
What I thought no
He wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
He isn't really what I'm looking for

This is when I start to bite my nails
And clean my room when all else fails
I think it's time for me to bail
This point of view is getting stale

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Na Na Na Na Na
We've all got choices
Na Na Na Na
We've all got voices
Na Na Na Na Na
Stand up make some noise
Na Na Na Na
Stand up make some noise

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

He wasn't what I wanted
What I thought no
He wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
Like I was special
'Cause I was special

Na Na Na Na Na


9. WHEN YOU'RE GONE (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cried
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side

[Pre-Chorus]
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

[Chorus]
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it ok
I miss you

I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left - They lie on the floor
And they smell just like you - I love the things that you do

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me

[Chorus]


10. GIRLFRIEND (JUNKIE XL MIX)

Hey Hey You You
No way No way
Hey Hey You You

Hey Hey
Cause I can - Cause I can do it better

[Chorus]

Hey Hey
Cause I can - Cause I can do it better

[Chorus]

Cause I can - Cause I can do it better [x4]

Cause I can do it better

[Chorus]
