You're everything I want to be. You're everyone I want to be with me. Whenever I exist, That's the perfect time to think of you and me. I'll be the Abed to your Troy. I'm the Belushi to your Akroyd. Caught in a mad bromance, Just the two of us and some beer and TV. I’ll find a way to make you see That if I were gay, I would be gay for you. I hope that doesn't make you feel uncomfortable. If you were a girl, I'd be all over that, But here's the world we live in, and here's my song for you, My man crush. Aren’t all the good times just a blur? I climbed your fence, and snapped a picture. Your people helped me leave; Maybe I can send a copy to you. You know that I’m your biggest fan. I’m here for you, because I love you man. Come get your man-hug here, Like where you slap my back, and I slap yours too. We’ve got mantivities to do. And if I were gay, I would be gay for you. I’m sensing maybe that makes you uncomfortable. If you were a girl, then you could be my girl, But since you’re not a girl, I think it’s time to be My man crush. Please, don't turn out to be a jerk ball. Please, don't have politics that are different than mine. Please, don't do anything new; I like you just the way you are. I know we’ll be forever bros. We’re mac and cheese. We’re double rainbows. You can’t believe how much Goes into working out your traveling plans. I’ve got my ticket in my hands. And if I were gay, I would be gay for you. Why does it seem to make you so uncomfortable to hear that If you were a girl, I'd be all up in that But as you have no "that" all up in which to be, you're My man crush.

I said I didn't want your Valentine. You took it away before I even read a line. I told to your face, "Be gone!" It's been a year since you even sent an emoticon. I made it clear I'd never leave. My steady face you did believe. You stayed away calm and polite. Never made a fuss or put up a fight. Insignificant you, you are my muse. Forgettable you, listen to the clues. The one where I sing to steal me away. The sad lament where my heart's on display. Insignificant you. Peripheral you, this note is too late. Unimportant you, another song I dedicate. The one that I'm with, his heart is good and true. But sometimes I wish You had done more to pursue me. Unimportant. Peripheral. Forgettable. Insignificant you.

It was a long time ago, far far away... I first saw you like an angel in white Across a darkened room I saw you But I know you didn't see me that night In the forest, or snow, or at light speed in space Flying solo, or walking the sky The force of my love binds me to you Won't you Please say you'll be mine I love you. You know. You're my only hope You turn my dark side to light So I'm sending this transmission to say, "Please be mine." Yeah, be my space opera valentine. I've got a really bad feeling about this What if I turned out to be like your brother to kiss I love you. You know. You're my only hope You turn my dark side to light So I'm sending this transmission to say, "Please be mine." Yeah, be my space opera valentine. That was a long time ago, far far away... And I'm not a boy anymore And you never grew older, and you'll never be mine But you're still my space opera valentine.

Somewhere north of here A girl is playing piano And won't let me hear her I'm getting kind of tired How time and space conspire To keep me from getting nearer And like half my best friends We've never met in real life Heather you should know Sometimes i joke too much But this time I'm serious Winter's cold and bitter And in february's middle That suits me more than not In recounting all the trial I feel better for awhile When we talk about how we hate our jobs Left alone There's a part of me That saves up self minted currency Unspoken thoughts, Untested words Discarded dangerous things I'm nothing if not sincere But so much else goes unsaid Oh, Heather Sometimes "clever" fails me I'm left grappling with cliches Now there's a tiny stress fracture in my Defenses against this manufactured holiday Since I can't say it in person This song's my second best way But happy February fourteenth anyway Every shred of conventional wisdom Says I'm probably over invested Every second of the past Suggests that's true If i place my heart out on my sleeve I know it's at my peril And there's no reason that I Should blame you Oh, Heather Sometimes "clever" fails me I'm left grappling with cliches Now there's a tiny stress fracture in my Defenses against this manufactured holiday Since I can't say it in person This song's my second best way But happy February fourteenth anyway

************************** So -- Here we are again. Here, and on our own. Single and alone again. So -- Things have gone awry. Dreams have not come true. Now it’s only you and I. So -- Knowing this is hard, I made you this card, Hoping it will help. Knowing you will heal. Knowing you’ll be fine On Valentine’s Day. ************************** True -- That was a surprise, Shattering our heart, Learning of our partner’s lies. True -- There’s a lot to feel, Wanting to be whole, Waiting for our soul to heal. True -- You may be afraid. Having love betrayed Tends to make us pause. Still, I wish you peace, Even as you pine This Valentine’s Day. ************************** Hey -- Even as you cry, As you face your fears, Know one day your tears will dry. Hey -- Look ahead to then And it won’t be long ‘Til we’ll both feel strong again. Hey -- Maybe when we do Find somebody new, This time it will last, Bringing us a love Strong enough to shine Each Valentine’s Day. ************************** This, then, is my wish -- To your heart, from mine -- On Valentine’s Day. **************************

Happy Valentine's Day from all your friends and neighbors To the couple living in apartment three. We still remember the day you moved in across the way. You were so cute, so fun, and so friendly. We've had a great time getting to know you. You know your barbeques all rate a solid ten. But there's something you should know, In the interest of full disclo...sure, 'Cause honestly's the way to treat a friend. We can hear you fucking. We thought you would want to know: We can hear you fucking. From above your room, and also from down below. You're consenting adults, you can do whatever you want to. But these walls are so thin, and we think you should think this through. You guys are pounding away for hours at a time, And I'm not saying that we're not kind of impressed, But it's awkward, while you're screwing, When our kids ask what you're doing. Some of us use it to describe where babies come from. And we know that everyone has these urges. We can tell your hormone levels are beyond words. And you're young and fancy free, And everyone needs a hobby, But you don't hear us screaming about Angry Birds. (Well, maybe Bob sometimes.) We can hear you fucking Even when you're home all alone. We can hear you fucking Even when you're having sex on the phone. We've tried dropping hints, but the message hasn't got through, That's why we're resorting to sending this card to you: We can hear you fucking.

You’re right on time again, as always. Stepping suave smooth out of your truck, And oh what luck all the sweet things that you bring. I tail you down the office hallways. And watch you expertly restock the soda machine. Well you and I, hey, we’re pretty good at small talk. Saying hi hello how are you, But you have no clue of your true appeal. Grab a carbonated round to go and let’s take a walk. Baby it’s the real thing yeah this is how I feel. This is Love! Oh I know that this is Love! My effervescent heart Fizzes into a thousand tiny parts. Cupid himself would say We deserve a happy Valentine’s Day. You’re my cherry vanilla cola dream. I hope you find my honesty refreshing. Sure don’t mean to shake things up, But my loving cup’s about to overflow. When it comes to your story I may not know a thing. But I look into your eyes and that’s all I need to know. This is Love! Oh I know that this is Love! My effervescent heart Fizzes into a thousand tiny parts. Cupid himself would say We deserve a happy Valentine’s Day. You’re my cherry vanilla cola dream. The candy hearts are singing. Over the church bells ringing. Vows that say, “I Heart U” and “Be Mine.” For all these years I’ve waited. To feel this caffeinated For a Love that won’t go flat until the end of time. This is Love! Oh I know that this is Love! My effervescent heart Fizzes into a thousand tiny parts. Cupid himself would say We deserve a happy Valentine’s Day. You’re my cherry vanilla cola dream.

I stayed up late And wrote in hearts Every message the same You can't tell them apart I decorated a box For the party at school There's a card for everyone Because that's the rules But there was one I spent some time Someone like you Deserves some extra lines In real small type You can barely see It say "thank you for chipping my teeth, you bastard." And everytime you push me down I devise Another way to tape you to the pole outside, you bastard. So there it is My Valentine for you I only gave you one Because I had to, you bastard.

You were a siren in shinin' glass-scattered sun I was a shy and silent distantly affectionate Train wreck with training wheels on I hid in my corner to fawn over the beauty only I saw You were all exotic, had nothing to hide, you wore your Insides like they were costumes at Mardi Gras I was always a waiter, not much of a chaser I'm no instigator But I swore I saw your eyes flash invitation To talk you later You held my gaze And I froze in place And all because of my delay You're the one who got away You're the one who got away I'd come back to see you, to greet you, try to meet you In some better place Found my first courage in the bottom of the coffee you Served me with that Mardi Gras smile on your face I'd climb my wall of nerves, push the ball of doubtful words aside And tried to be my own cupid that day But you eluded me, you did me a favor Turns out you made a greater cupid than I did anyway And as you slipped away Right then I saw her face Now I no longer have to say "She's the one who got away" You gave a gift I can't repay You led me to find 'the one' And I'm so happy this love's begun And after all is said and done I mean "thank you" when I say, After all is said and done "Happy Valentine's Day"

This one is for all you special gentlemen out there, who are looking for someone you just can't get from the ladies. No, that's not exactly what I mean. SpinTunes, represent! Sometimes songwriting contests -- they get a bad rap. I'm speaking in verse since I've been told I can't sing First off, let's establish this isn't a gay thing And though I am sensitive and sometimes sing show tunes There ain't no Santorum on the sheets in my bedroom I'm pensive and anxious; not so good socializing Bad at eye contact; find friendship quite trying It always gets competitive; I feel disrespected So though I need contact I remain disconnected If you like, we could do this right in front of my wife She and the kids would probably join in; that's my life I get slobbered on, clobbered, watch boogers get eaten Get wet on and sat on, but I can't be eaten Real life is messy; babysitters cost money Kids are drippy and messy; they think chaos is funny If I manage to get out for a moment of quiet When I get home the whole place looks like there was a riot CHORUS: When I was a child You had to bring each boy and girl a cutesie card Bring enough for the class Or you can fold them up and stuff them up your ass Now that I am grown I kind of miss those days and often feel alone Please don't be shocked This is not about your goddamn cock Brother can you spare the time To be my man-crush bromance Valentine? So friendship gets difficult, especially past 40 But what really frustrates is all those who can't see The value of contact not whatever's on cable Of human conversation around a dinner table You could bring along your own girlfriend or spouse Throw in some wine or whisky, not to get soused But for social lubrication; get the words flowing Talk politics or culture, until our eyes are glowing Ideas and philosophies, pedantic or not Libertarian, contrarian, agrarian or fraught with Conservatism, idealism, concepts good or bad Try listening respectfully, although it makes you mad We're not Limbaugh or Maddow; we're not in it for the ratings We don't need to practice hate or engage in race-baiting The art of debate was once taught in every school What passes for it now is depressingly uncool (REPEAT CHORUS) So friend me on Facebook, follow me on Twitter When everything is virtual, real life goes in the shitter Social media is corporate and the product is us Now this is what it's come to, imagine my disgust Hanging out IRL* seems increasingly unlikely We've transcended friendship; it's messy and unsightly I age and rage against the dying of the light Maybe I'll catch you on the other side; I bid you good night I've got just one special Valentine's Day wish for you, my brother -- only connect. *"In Real Life"

I love the way you lay beside me When I am making food I love the way that you follow me around When you have nothing to do I love the way that your tongue hangs out the side of your mouth I love the way that you run around when I let you out I love my dog I love my dog Although she’s kind of stupid And a little overweight She’s still pretty awesome And she always makes my day I love the way that you play With dogs that are smaller than you I love the way that you bark Even though it’s usually your own reflection I love the way that your tongue hangs out the side of your mouth I love the way that you run around when I let you out I love my dog I love my dog Although she’s kind of stupid And a little overweight She’s still pretty awesome And she always makes my day

I probably never told you That you were the first girl To whom I ever gave a valentine Though I now have a lover I'm giving you another In fond remembrance of that distant time You made me feel exposed And I was oh, so shy But every night I saw you When I closed my eyes You were the woman of my dreams And crazy as it seems I remember it like it was yesterday Through all the years I met So many girls and yet You'll always be the woman of my dreams Like the thunder and the lightning I sometimes found you frightening And had to overcome the urge to leave But I finally got beyond it To look past your bad habits And see the tender woman underneath I've often heard it said That age is just a number But the difference in our years Never mattered when I'd slumber You were the woman of my dreams And crazy as it seems I remember it like it was yesterday Through all the years I met So many girls and yet You'll always be the woman of my dreams Inside I had a feeling That you could be the one I asked for reasons why not And the answer came back "nun" An interesting feature Of crushing on your teacher Is how your feelings run to the extremes And Sister Mary Agnes You were my first so, I guess You'll always be the woman of my dreams
14.
Dragged into some friend's lame party Saw you by a wall, glancing at me We had an awkward chat or two Before you left But in that span of time I found that I was gobsmacked and obsessed CHORUS: I cannot keep you, girl From skating through my dreams each day and night I need you in my world Regardless if I have to go and fight Armies to make you mine 'Cause now I'm bored with my precious little life Suddenly, my mind's bursting with plans I'll take you out to see my sucky band I'll need to make a couple of Changes before it's time The real trick is how I'll break up with that other girl of mine CHORUS I'm not some cheating louse, you see But how to do it amicably? Even though I know what's in my heart I just know my world will tear me apart It might be simpler If I just forget you But maybe simple isn't What I need to make my dreams come true CHORUS

Dear Amber, you don't know me. I'm a gambler and your biggest fan. You can call me Wellington Wright. And oh, Ms. Avalanche, I'd love to be your man. I'm a descendant of the airplane pioneers. That's how I came to find your line of work, my dear; the famous contest: the Arctic Races, and the champion polar pilot the aerial angel, Amber Avalanche. I bet a lot of money on your crimson-colored aircraft on this winter day last year, a frigid rigid Valentine's Day. You whistled through a frozen cave, a missile through my chest would save a bitten heart to thaw and bleed smitten as you take the lead. Ever since then, that February, you know I've been proudly wearing, that white feather badge upon my chest that fell to the ground from your leather vest. I forever follow the flights of the beautiful Amber Avalanche, and just like your winning record my love for you is undefeated. Ever since then, that February, you know I've been proudly wearing, that white feather badge upon my chest that fell to the ground from your leather vest. You whistled through a frozen cave, a missile through my chest would save a bitten heart to thaw and bleed smitten as you take the lead. I dream of us flying by turbines, riding on mountain wakes and taming the waves of crowded blizzard clouds. I've been grounded long enough. I'll take flight and action. The other racers can't seem to catch you but planes aren't fueled by passion.

On the eve of St. Valentine I believed, with your hand to mine, You'd whisper those words in my ear "I'm yours, and how good it is Of course, that's how Cupid is" Instead I went single that year. My bundle delivered I hunched and I shivered Against the last wintery chill So drained of my every want I feigned being nonchalant And tried to sit perfectly still You must have thought I was crazy or dumb To think, at thirteen, that I'd met the one You were right if you did I was quite a dumb kid So I tried to get rid of my love That was way back in middle school It's amazing to think of you And no longer feel the same way It's true that I'm over you But I do have one hope for you I hope that you're happy today

You can be my Joey Ramone. Break my heart just the way I like it. Turn it on, so strongly intoned. I'm not gonna lie. It's hard to be in love with Corin Tucker. She'll probably always be with someone other than me. But Do you think you wanna? Yea I think I wanna. Do you think you wanna? Yea I think I wanna. Do you think you wanna? Yeah I think I wanna. Yeah I really wanna. Singing along to your record in my car but I'd rather be where you are now. Baby. I may not be real rock and roll fun but I can fake it with the best of them now. Baby. "" I wanna pinch your cheeks and stroll the streets; we'll wear hoods to hide from the punk-rock-razzi, Baby. Take you to museums or go shopping, you can max out all my cards. Baby you should be my valentine for one day, or forever. I sigh and sigh and sigh for Corin Tucker.

To the Administrator of Extraplanetary Research, I wish you a "Happy Valentines Day", for that is what the inhabitants of this planet call today. It appears to be another of their so-called "Holy Days" although I have yet to find an individual who can relate to me any information about the eponymous figure, St. Valentine. Rather, it is claimed to be a day dedicated to public displays of the emotion which they call "love". However, in this respect, their language seems to be significantly deficient in nuance. Depending upon context, this term can be used to describe a baffling array of favorable relationships with other entities, ranging from one's mate, to one's siblings or parents, to one's animal companion, and even to one's food. The universally recognized symbol of this day is a stylized figure which they refer to as a "heart" although in actuality, it bears no similarity to the anatomical organ. Indeed, it more closely resembles the appearance of a leaf. The depiction of an element of the cardiovascular system appears to be motivated by the physiological and hormonal responses triggered by the aforementioned emotion. Given that their blood is red, due to it's high iron content, it is logical that various shades of this color,are featured prominently on this day. Another widely used symbolic element, which they call a "cupid", is truly inexplicable. This is a depiction of a very young juvenile with avian wings sprouting from it's back, and versed in the primitive combat skill of archery. I do not know what conclusions to draw from this disturbing observation. As was the case with their previous holy-day, celebration involves the giving of gifts (though on a smaller scale), and the shared consumption of non-nutritional substances. An especially popular gift is the detached reproductive structures of plants, which can be artificially sustained in a vessel of water. It is conceivable that the inevitable withering of these structures is intended to symbolize that percentage of mating bonds which are terminated before death. In addition, participants give one another pieces of cardboard with various platitudes inscribed upon them. An oft-ingested item on this day is a brown substance comprised of a mixture of fat and sugar, flavored with the extract of certain beans. They call this substance "chocolate", and I hypothesize that it contains chemicals which amplify the effect of the emotions in the brain, although further research would be needed to ascertain this. As you can see from this and my previous reports, these beings are highly impulsive and illogical. It is my recommendation that we continue to abstain from contact at this time. May you live long and prosper.

I want to say how much you mean From the bottom of my heart I know we have our problems But I hope we never part You're the only thing I need To keep me alive As cliché as it sounds I need you to survive Mother Earth I know that we're hard on you Digging for stuff in you Not paying attention to The way you change When we're treating you bad And it makes me quite mad So I want to say to you I think we need brought back down to you I'm sorry that we fill you up With stuff we throw away I understand if you feel Like you are being betrayed I apologise on the behalf Of everyone on you And we wanna put it right We can start anew

Bernie, man I love ya but you gotta help me out I'm stuck behind these prison walls just like a reg'lar lout 'Course, you know I love you, buddy, you're a paragon of class But my true love's shooting arrows into somebody's chapped ass They say "Hey, Cupid, pull back that bow" But what do all those idiots know? I'm bringing you all love, but inattention is my flaw 'Cause all those freakin' arrows got me collared by the law I just love shooting my arrows into arms, butts, necks and face But now I'm on the news and villified by Nancy Grace The folks I put together hate me, say I give them all the creeps And now I'm stuck inside this cell, hands covering my cheeks They say see Cupid, everyone they start to flee They scream and double over - Took an Arrow To the Knee. I'm bringing you all my love, but inattention is my flaw 'Cause all those freakin' arrows got me collared by the law I don't get it. Why is everyone making such a big deal bout this. Hey buddy - watch it! I got my eye on you! You too! You know - you could lose a little weigh. You know, I think you two might look good together. But I'm not videoing it. So, Bernie, pal, please help me, know that you're my only hope I can't live where I'm so terrified of just dropping the soap You're the world's best bail bondsman, and Its time to pay the piper Get me the freak outta here cause I gotta change this diaper!

My girlfriend's breath is sweet. But yours is so much sweeter baby. You have the breath of well- flossed angels. Angels who solely eat Skittles. My girlfriend's boobs are big. But yours are so much bigger, baby. They look like they can hold a can of paint. I doubt that we will ever know for sure. Don't tell my girlfriend that I told you this. She would get pissed. She just wouldn't understand, Not just because she barely speaks the language. My girlfriend's teeth are white, But yours are so much straighter, baby. Your teeth aren't super sharp or pointy. I bet you blow up balloons without them popping. Don't tell my girlfriend that last month we kissed. She would get pissed. She just wouldn't understand. She's still mad that the babysitter's pregnant. My girlfriend's soup is good. But yours is so much better, baby. She puts weird ingredients in it. Like capers, dill, and what the hell is arsenic? She puts weird ingredients in it. Like capers, dill, and what the hell is arsenic? I'll call you soon when I'm not feeling so damn sick.

On this Valentine's day I send you my love You're the foot in my sock I'm the fingers in your glove You've know I've loved you honey I can't stand to be alone So why'd you leave me when you know That I can tap your phone? Baby, be my valentine It's my deepest wish I don't care who you're loving now I don't care who you're with I'll do anything for you I'm the one you need Treat me like a dog, honey Make me open up and bleed I know you've got another love Well, babe, I have one too She helps me while away the hours but she's nothing next to you I know one day you wanted kids I've already got a set! 'Course I'd dump 'em in a New York Second If you'd rather just have a pet Baby, be my valentine Fulfill my fondest wishes Just say the word and your current beau Will be sleeping with the fishes I'll do anything for you What else can I say? For you I'd walk thru broken glass And gargle with Ben-Gay Bridge chant: Settle for me, baby Settle for me Settle for me, baby Settle for me Well, I tried to set up cameras in your home and in your car I followed you around to the park and to the bar I sent you gifts and candies And a piece of my big toe I'd send you something bigger But I can't mail a...well, you know... Baby, be my valentine It's my deepest wish I'm the lumps in your gravy You're the potato in my knish I'm the varnish in your oatmeal You're the ring around my fist And I wish I'd known my schoolboy crush Would get you so damn pissed Bridge chant repeat/solo and out: Settle for me, baby Settle for me Settle for me, baby Settle for me (etc)

Two Roads Diverged in a golden wood All uncertain, I paused and stood And tried to see the better way Two Roads Two roads Then I saw that there weren’t two There were four, there were eight then more Each would lead to a hundred score I couldn’t choose! Ev’ry choice killed a million dreams So I stood there, frozen, scared Hid my head and never dared Never took another step Along the road. Flip a coin, make a choice make a sound use your voice Take a step move your ass don’t let all these moments pass Eeny meenie miney moe Don’t just wait here in the road Cut the cards, roll the dice Curtain one for looking nice Tempus fugit if you blink time to act and not just think Lick a finger, see which way the wind blows Lick a finger, see which way the wind blows Let yourself go... Don’t let the middle of the road Become the ending of your life Two Roads A choice in each breath I take Every motion I choose to make It’s hard to see the better way Two Roads Two roads Does the card bear a heart or spade? I should give it but I’m afraid What if my love will be betrayed” Why can’t I move?! Nothing ventured means nothing gain’d But I stand here, frozen, scared Raise my head but, will I dare? To take that first or final step Along the road.

I'd like to tell the world how great you are to know! You've been my friend and helper Teaching me to grow You've helped me up when I was down Got me to sing instead of frown I am so glad that you're around! You're my best friend. :o) I can't remember when you weren't by my side, And if I made mistakes, you'd say, "At least you tried." When I was frightened in the night You always made things feel alright And my days are twice as bright 'cause you're around. BRIDGE: So I will sing you this song And let the world know that we're together Sing you this song To tell ya what you mean to me! Some days I might forget to tell you that I care And take for granted that you always will be there But if I do I hope you know I didn't mean to mess up so I want you everyplace I go You're my best friend!

CHORUS I only want to let you know, how much I need you so Getting ready for our weekly date: got my DVR set for 8 You smile at me, who wouldn’t see. Even through the screen it seems You were meant for me It was love at first sight, your flowing hair and beautiful eyes My heart fluttered and I couldn’t breathe when you turned and stared at me And though she tried to steal your heart, I knew that she was just a character part And she wouldn’t last long past the pilot episode Still, she broke your heart, but you were strong, and I was there cheering you along I knew next week there’d be someone new, but for now I dreamed I could be with yo CHORUS We grew together as the weeks went by, I watched you fight, I watched you cry Sometimes, you’d flash those green eyes at me, and I blushed even though there was no one to see I read every single interview, and voted a thousand times for you All of my backgrounds show your beautiful face Every year I have to worry though: will the producers bring back your show? I just watch, over and over again, hoping that you’ll never end CHORUS On this Valentine’s Day, I hope you’ll think of me Reading my letters, I know you'll feel the same way We're apart, I can't just sit in bed. I guess I’ll go out with my husband instead It’s okay, he knows you’re in my head
