Don't Stop Believin' by Postmodern Jukebox



Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere

A singer in a smoky room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight, people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night


Working hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time

Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
And now the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight, people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people
Don't stop

Good One Comin' On by Blackberry Smoke



Two six packs of Shiner
99 cent butane lighter
Lucky Strikes and a fifth of Patron
ice down that Igloo cooler
tank of gas that oughta do er’
I can feel a good one comin’on

Throw in Ray Wylie Hubbard
sing along to “Redneck Mother”
any blues I had before are gone
another workin’ week is over
no chance of stayin’ sober
I can feel a good one comin’ on

[Chorus]
Yea we’re gonna roll all night
we’re gonna get the feelin’ right
we’re gonna keep this party rockin’
till the break of dawn
I can feel a good one comin’ on

Three blondes in a rag top Mustang
followed us down to the lake and…
didn’t have to think about that too long
skinny dippin’ in the bright moonlight
situation couldn’t be more right
I can feel a good one comin’ on

[Chorus]

Fuckin' Perfect by P!nk


Made a wrong turn once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life

Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss No-Way-It's-All-Good
It didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing
Underestimated, look, I'm still around

Pretty, pretty, please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than fucking perfect
Pretty, pretty, please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing. You're fucking perfect to me

You're so mean, you're so mean when you talk, when you talk
About yourself. You were wrong
Change the voices, change the voices in your head, in your head
Make them like you instead

So complicated
Look how we all make it
Filled with so much hatred
Such a tired game
It's enough, I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons
I've seen you do the same
Oh, oh

Pretty, pretty, please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than fucking perfect
Pretty, pretty, please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing. You're fucking perfect to me

The whole world's scared, so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice-cold beer
So cool in lying and we try, try, try but we try too hard
And it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, 'cause they're everywhere
They don't like my jeans, they don't get my hair
Exchange ourselves and we do it all the time
Why do we do that, why do I do that, why do I do that?

Yeah! Oh!
Oh, pretty, pretty, pretty

Pretty, pretty, please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than fucking perfect
Pretty, pretty, please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing. You're fucking perfect to me
You're perfect, you're perfect
Pretty, pretty, please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing. You're fucking perfect to me

Since U Been Gone by Kelly Clarkson



Here's the thing: we started out friends
It was cool but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone

You dedicated, you took the time
Wasn't long 'til I called you mine
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone

And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I pictured me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say

But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get what I want
Since you've been gone

How can I put it? You put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone

How come I'd never hear you say,
"I just wanna be with you."
I guess you never felt that way

But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get (I get) what I want
Since you've been gone

You had your chance, you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth, I just can't take it
Again and again, and again, and again

Since you've been gone
(Since you've been gone)
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get, I get what I want

I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (I get)
You should know (you should know)
That I get, I get what I want
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
