The Argument Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Song One

Lyricist:Gillespie, King, Van Alstyne, Young

8th grade Winter Break, 'cause I studied hard
My parents broke down and bought me a guitar
I turned it up high, I strapped it on low
Taped your picture to the mirror, baby and I struck a pose

Cafeteria, I sent you a note yes or no, circle one
You wrote, maybe so, well, its on to plan B
'Cause plan a went all wrong laid the phone
On the bed and I sang you my first song

In a late night telephone serenade

I'm letting my heart roll right off my sleeve
And onto an empty sheet of looseleaf
I'm sure there'll be more but this first one's for you
So go ahead this is where you shoot me down

I got a simple melody clich sounding words
For added effect I put your name in each verse
Don't ask what its called I haven't named it just yet
But if you like I'll put it down on cassette

Would you a like a recess serenade?

I'm letting my heart roll right off my sleeve
And onto an empty sheet of looseleaf
I'm sure there'll be more but this first one's for you
So go ahead this is where you shoot me down

And I really don't care how silly this all sounds
'Cause I know I'm gonna make mistakes the first time around
So I better write this down

I'm letting my heart roll right off my sleeve
And onto an empty sheet of looseleaf
I'm sure there'll be more but this first one's for you
So go ahead this is where you shoot me down

8th grade Valentine's, I'm way over you
Took your picture off the mirror, baby
And started song two


2.Half Asleep And Pissed Off

Lyricist:Lou Reed

I've never gone the whole nine yards
I'm not the kind to set my mind to anything
I've never given anything my all
But if I tried, I'm sure that I would fail

Met a girl last night
She's a girl that can mosh to anything
But she only wants me when I sing

I would talk to her
But I'm half asleep and pissed off
I don't want to try that hard
I got so much more time to kill

Everything I have to give you is a hand-me-down
I really tried to find some time but it can't be now
(Can't be now)

'Cause I need someone who knows
When she should leave me alone
Knows when
Knows when she should leave me alone

I've never been a go-getter
It's not my thing to take a swing for the fence
She says she wants everything

But everything I ever have to give her is a hand-me-down
I really tried to find some time but it can't be now
(Can't be now)

'Cause I need someone who knows
When she should leave me alone
Knows when, knows
When she should leave me alone

She's a girl that can mosh to anything
But she only wants me when I sing
I would talk to her
But I'm half asleep and pissed off
I don't want to try that hard
I got so much more time to kill

Everything I have to give is a hand-me-down
I really tried to find some time but it can't be now
(Can't be now)

'Cause I need someone who knows
When she should leave me alone
Knows when, knows
When she should leave me alone

What?
