WAY TO GO (Bill Villa & Angie Villa)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
you said I was your only one
was that just the moment
when we were out there having fun
and even more at home but now I
i still know what your name is
we both know what your game is
way to go/you told me lies
you pulled the wool/over my eyes
you didn’t care/i didn’t know
so now you’re gone/hey way to go
your phoney’s ringing all the time
and I need an answer
maybe you’re meeting him online
and he’s a great romancer but I
i found out what your code is
you thought I wouldn’t notice
way to go/you told me lies
you pulled the wool/over my eyes
you didn’t care/i didn’t know
so now you’re gone/hey way to go
now I know I’ll be feeling sad
all cuz you had to be so bad
i thought I was your only one
was that just the moment
when we were out there having fun
was I just a dope and now I
i still know what your name is
we both know what your game is
way to go/you told me lies
you pulled the wool/over my eyes
you didn’t care/i didn’t know
so now you’re gone/hey way to go

2. PERSONAL PROPERTY (Bill Villa)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
where ya gonna take me baby tonite
to some outrageous party
where nobody cares if it's wrong or it's right
but they can't get it started
i'm not part of your personal property
can't you see that in my eyes
i'm not part of your personal property
i'm gonna do just what i like
you shouldn't go and tell everybody you know
how you can make me linger
cuz you don't really have nuthin' to show
until it's on my finger
but i don't wanna work on your labor of love
i don't wanna try my luck
i'm not part of your personal property
can't you see that in my eyes
i'm not part of your personal property
i'm gonna do just what i like
when you get into trouble
where do you turn
you want me on the double
when will you learn
that i got a time table
oh, i'll be running all over the world
yeah, i'm too busy for you
i don't wanna work on your labor of love
no i don't wanna try my luck
you don't think it's easy living this way
but it can only get worse
i'm not something to file away
like all the junk in your purse
i'm not part of your personal property
can't you see that in my eyes
I'm not part of your personal property
i'm gonna do just what i like

TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU KNOW (Bill Villa & Kevin Curry)
© 2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
we're so in love
and the summer was so exciting
one more night then you're leaving
you don't have to write just don't erase me
promise that you'll always tell me
if some guy gets much too friendly
and while i'm at my occupation
and you're furthering your education
tell me everything you know, tell me everything you know
tell me everything you know, hey, oh oh oh
i spend all my waking hours wishing you were home
i wonder if she got my flowers, is she alone ...
tell me everything you know, tell me everything you know
tell me everything you know, hey, oh oh oh
got your letter in the mail this morning
it's confusing me
gonna pay a visit without warning
hoping that i find nothing
but something's different when you kiss me
is this freedom way too risky
i can tell it's not the same
you called me some other guy's name
tell me everything you know, tell me everything you know
tell me everything you know, hey, oh oh oh, hey, oh oh oh

CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE (Angie Villa & Bill Villa)
© 2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
the mother raised all of the children in her nest
while the father worked to buy the biggest and the best
with all his prized possessions on the shelf
of newfound wealth
but now there's no time to waste thinking of the sad times
i've found that I really have to turn my point of view around
and away from myself as the center of the universe
the daughter moved away from home just in time
but her brother stayed hangin’ around all the while
buying all the things that he can find
while he’s online
but now there's no time to waste thinking of the sad times
i've found that I really have to turn my point of view around
and away from myself as the center of the universe
the boyfriend said keep your opinions to your self
so the daughter moved away to heal her mental health
and another boy took her from the shelf
like newfound wealth
and now there's no time to waste thinking of the sad times
i've found that I really have to turn my point of view around
and away from myself as the center of the universe

TOPPERS (Bill Villa)
© 2003
BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
i guess we’re the only ones
who’re gonna celebrate us on a job well done
cuz they’ve all been there before, ya see
and they did it bigger, better, sooner, don’tcha know, honey
i hear toppers in my sleep
counting sheep
and they sound so ordinary
they’re all the same
they came for fame
not to party
it’s a quality too rare
pumping someone else’s thing extraordinaire
knowing when to kiss the ring
and when not to throw some dull one-upping zing
i hear toppers in my sleep
counting sheep
and they sound so ordinary
they’re all the same
they came for fame
not to party
i hear toppers in my sleep
counting sheep
and they sound so ordinary
they’re all the same
they came to claim
not to party
i hear toppers in my sleep
counting sheep
and they sound so ordinary
they’re all the same
they came to shame
not to party

YOU KNOW BETTER (Bill Villa)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
you need a victim and i’m right in your line of fire
you have a clever way of messin’ with my desire
i know it’s just an intuitive thing
disapproval with a venomous sting
why must there always be some hell to pay
you know better than to treat me this way
your angry letter said that i gotta toe the line
that would be easy but you’re moving it all the time
i know it’s just an intuitive thing
disapproval with a venomous sting
why must there always be some hell to pay
you know better than to treat me this way

DREAMLAND (Bill Villa & Kevin Curry)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
i’d like to take you to some place I go
i might invite you some some day but you’ll never know
i’ll know everything that you’re gonna do
cuz I wrote all the action for you
and I’ll know everything that you’re gonna say
in dreamland it happens that way
i don’t have your fascination
with how it must be
i’ve heard all your wrong solutions
and they don’t have much to do with me
forget everything that you used to know
you won’t need it where you’re gonna go
i can always leave you can never stay
in dreamland it happens that way
you won’t have the faintest notion
of what you’ve been through
i’ve given my total devotion
to making all my dreams come true
and I’m leaving
while you sit there with nowhere to go
believe me
you’d be better off staying at home
cuz I’ll know everything that you’re gonna do
i wrote all the action for you
and I’ll know everything that you’re gonna say
in dreamland it happens that way

NOW IT CAN BE TOLD (Dave Follweiler)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
then is then and now it can be told
then's not when you know
there's a time to come, to hold
and a time to go
only now is when you know
there's the end of all I planned to do
quit that call for now
here's the start of something new
change the part somehow
if the powers will allow
let me off right here
i'll be leaving well too much alone
get me off right now my dear
before I melt to stone
how it can be cold when it's so clear
i can't comprehend
now it can be told for all to cheer
give away the end
and we'll call it quits again
let me off right here
i'll be leaving well too much alone
get me off right now my dear
before I melt to stone
then is then and now it can be told
then's not when you know
there's a time to come, a time to hold
and a time to go
now's the time you know
only now it can be told

TO BE IN LOVE (Bill Villa)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
when it looks impossible
and i feel invisible
when the words are on the blink
and you need some time to think
i know you're not thinkin' of
what it means to be in love
catch a wave of shing-a-ling
but you don't come with a ring
when will you mumble something more than so would i
or is that easier than waiting for good-bye
when the words are on the blink
and you need some time to think
i know you're not thinkin' of
what it means to be in love
when i'm dead and gone and cold on the table
that'll be too late to get me back
when the words are on the blink
and you need some time to think
i know you're not thinkin' of
what it means to be in love
when the words are on the blink
and you need more time to think
i know you're not thinkin' of
what it means to be in love

SAVOY TRUFFLES (Bill Villa & Pat Wallace)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
i think that love's a stupid game people play
i'd rather be by myself any day
with nobody to answer to
and nobody to call
savoy truffles and i'll be eatin 'em all
then you looked up
from what you were reading
and our eyes said
here's what we've been needing
we started to talk about
things we like to do
and i was hoping that
you were feeling it too
could it be what i think between you and me
could it be what i think is it meant to be
are we falling in love
too many days went by and i missed you
then there you were again so i kissed you
we started to laugh about this stupid game for two
and wondered if we remembered what to do
could it be what i think between you and me
could it be what i think is it meant to be
are we falling
savoy truffles i'm eatin' 'em faster than you

EXCLUSIONS (Bill Villa)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
here come that glitterati now
they think we'll never be as cool as they know how
but look who's jurying our style
their heads are steamin' like a real big pile
oh these skillful exclusions are your grand delusions
as if we'd want in with your crowd
it's the same old refrain yeah we'll have to retrain
and make sure that we don't get too loud
the way ya hold your cigarette
it makes us wanna shove it somewhere we'd regret
there's no position in a pose
you've wrecked your vision lookin' down yer nose
oh these skillful exclusions are your grand delusions
as if we'd want in with your crowd
it's the same old refrain yeah we'll have to retrain
and make sure that we don't get too loud
where did you get this case of terminal nervy
until they find a cure it's you who isn't worthy
s’not what you want it's what you get
we'll live without your okay, we won't be upset
just leave us laughing in the aisles
you're like a 1-joke movie on denial
oh these skillful exclusions are your grand delusions
as if we'd want in with your crowd
it's the same old refrain yeah we'll have to retrain
and make sure that we don't get too loud

MORE THAN I CAN DO (Steve Earle)
Written
by Steve Earle, published
by WB Music Corp./South Nashville Music (ASCAP)
i'm trying hard to let you go
but it's more than i can do
and every day or two
i wind up right back where i started
i'm trying not to let you know
that i'm still in love with you
i can't just sit home blue
cuz there ain't no rest for the broken hearted
just because you won't unlock your door
that don't mean you don't love me anymore
i'm never gonna let you go, no matter what you do
cuz you know it's more than i can do
you told me that i gotta stop
but it's more than i can do
and that ain't nothin new
cuz we both know i'm crazy about you
you said you're gonna call the cops
but i ain't gonna run .. cuz you're the only one
there ain 't no way i can live without you
you left me just when i needed you
so i ain't even close to through with you
i'm never gonna let you go, no matter what you do
cuz you know it's more than i can do

I’LL HAVE YOU KNOW (Bill Villa & Dave Follweiler)
© 2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
i’ll have you know
i picture you where ever I go
in sun or snow
or moonglow
there we go
again
tell me when you might want me
until then you will haunt me
to the end of the end
i’ll have you know
i’m holding you above & below
I dreamed it so
long ago
I had no clue
then
of the life you’d awaken
and the time that it’s taken
to arrive so alive
now you have your notions about destiny and love
to have and to hold
i’ll have you know
that may be enough

QUEST OF FOOLS (Bill Villa & Kevin Curry)
©
2003 BobMania Publishing (ASCAP)
they come out every night
God how they must love you
they always pay the price
just to get a closer view
little darlings in little towns
are you heroes or are you clowns
you take the stage at night
for a couple hours
when you are in the lights
can you feel the power of
little darlings in little towns
do you get up when they get down
don’t forget the take home pays from everyone who thinks you’re
cool
don’t you know love is transient
once you’ve started on this quest of fools
so after all the lights go down
and you’re alone
what happens to the kings of night
after all the kids go home
little darlings in little towns
are you heroes or are you clowns |
