Hold the cup up to your lips.
Close your eyes and take a big sip.
No reason for you to be concerned,
No way you could possibly be burned.

So how does your head feel?
You know your fate has been permanently sealed?
A little dizzy from the euphoria.
Look! Now there’s more of ya.

(Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!)
Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!
(Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!)
Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!

Blindly following the blind.
Mindlessly turning off your mind.
Don’t question what you have dreamed.
Your agony is now a silent scream
Bridge:
Toss caution to the wind, don’t tell me
You’ve never heard the word sin.
Why should you be your own man,
Responsibility be damned!
It’s always easier to play the blame game.
Ahhh, Look, your dead, what a shame.
Chorus:
(Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!)
Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!
(Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!)
Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!

Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!
(Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!)
Look who’s drinking the cool aid now!

Hanging by a Thread/You Can’t Win

I was sitting thinking one day,
Wondering where I might have been
If I’d chosen the better way,
When all at once I realized I can’t win.

No I just can’t win.

I yelled out, “ I just can’t win, no!”

I couldn’t win even if I tried.
I read all their faces as I did proceed
And they all got up and said “You can’t win.”

No you can’t win, you can’t win
You can’t win no matter how you try.
No, you can’t win, you can’t win,

As I sat there and gave out a sigh,
They yelled out and laughed , ”you know You just can’t win.”
Verse 3:
I might have agreed, but I thought I had a chance.
They all thought I had no more moves.
I saw one space so I took a chance,
And they were shocked to see I was no longer doomed, and I yelled out
Chorus 3:
I can win, I can win,
I’ve won, I’ve won I’ve beaten your game,
Yes I’ve won, I’ve won I’ve beaten your game,
Hang your head in shame,
I’ve won, I’ve won, I’ve beaten your game.

For Better or Worse
Verse 1:

You make me feel like a necrophiliac.

But when you pull the covers up to your chin
Rigor mortis just sets right in.

Couldn’t wait for the hotel to get you in bed.

I nearly dialed 911.

Come on! make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.

The Girl I Once Knew

Sitting looking out the window.
Watch the rain drip from the trees,
Falling, gently landing down below.
Clouds roll on overhead.

A ray of sunlight they never shed.

Oh, the girl I once knew.
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Whatever became of you?

Days seem to slip away.
They move on with the breeze.
Oh why, don’t they ever stay?

On the flowers and the trees.
We never had to worry about the time.

All the while thinking of you,
Oh, the girl I once knew.
All the while thinking of you,
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Whatever became of you?

Still see your face, can hear your voice in my dreams.
Please let me dream on endlessly.

Talmadge Callahan
Verse 1:
On Kings Highway there is a cemetery.
For me to pass that way is not customary.
I happened to notice a most unusual stone.
It was granite and stood hauntingly alone.
I ventured in closer to see what I might see.
I was enchanted so what was on it I did read.
The name on the tomb was written very plain.
Who lived and who died was Talmadge Callahan.
Chorus:
And who was this unusual man.
I wonder what were his plans?
I wonder when his life began.
Talmadge Callahan, Talmadge Callahan.
Verse 2:
As I stood there over his grave
I did wonder as I stood in a daze.
That something about that stone was very strange.
Somewhere before I thought I heard his name,
But my thought was broken by a sound
And as I turned around
There stood a man
By the name of Talmadge Callahan.
Chorus:
And who was this unusual man?
I wonder what were his plans.
I wonder when his life began.
And I wonder if I’ll understand
Talmadge Callahan, Talmadge Callahan,
Talmadge Callahan, Talmadge Callahan,
Talmadge Callahan, Talmadge Callahan,
Talmadge Callahan, Talmadge Callahan,
Talmadge Callahan, Talmadge Callahan,
Talmadge Callahan, O-o-oo, o-o-oo, O-o-o-o-o-oo.
