U.R.A. Fever

Walk you to the counter, (What you got to offer?)
Pick you out a solder, (Look at you forever.)
Walk you to the water, (Your eyes like a casino.)
We ain't born typical.

Find a piece of silver, (Pretty as a diagram.)
And go down to the Rio. (Put it in my left hand.)
Put it in a fruit machine, (Everyone's a winner.)
Laughin' like a seagull.

You are a fever, you are a fever -- you ain't born typical.
You are a fever, you are a fever -- you ain't born typical.

Livin' in a suitcase, (Meet a clown, fall in love.)
Went down to have you over, (Going 'round a breakup.)
Take you to a jukebox, (That's the situation.)
Pick you out a number. (And that's our arrangement.)

Dancing on the legs of a newborn pony,
Left-right, left-right -- keep it up, son.
Go ahead and have her, go ahead and leave her,
You only ever had her when you were a fever.

I am a fever, I am a fever -- I ain't born typical.
I am a fever, I am a fever -- I ain't born typical.

We are a fever, we are a fever -- we ain't born typical.
We are a fever, we are a fever -- we ain't born typical.
We are a fever, we are a fever -- we ain't born typical.
We are a fever, we are a fever -- we ain't born typical.

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun

it's hard to wake up, when the shades have been pulled shut
This house is haunted, it's so pathetic, it makes no sense at all
I'm ripe with things to say, the words rot and fall away
What stupid poem could fix this home, I'd read it every day

So here's your holiday,
hope you enjoy it this time, you gave it all away
it was mine, so when you're dead and gone
will you remember this night, twenty years now lost,
it's not right.

Their anger hurts my ears, been running strong for seven years
Rather then fix the problems, they never solve them, it makes no sense at all
I see them everyday, we get along so why can't they?
If this is what he wants, and it's what she wants, then why is there so much pain?

So here's your holiday,
hope you enjoy it this time, you gave it all away.
it was mine, so when you're dead and gone
will you remember this night, twenty years now lost,
it's not right.

So here's your holiday,
hope you enjoy it this time, you gave it all away.
It was mine, so when your dead and gone,
will you remember this night, twenty years now lost?
it's not right
it's not right
it's not right
it's not right
