School Days
Used to be the trouble maker
Hated homework, was a sweet heartbreaker
But now I have my dream
I'm so rowdy for eighteen
Never read a single book
Hated homework and the dirty looks
Now I live my life
There's a lot I seen at eighteen
School days, school days
I'm older, now what will I find
School day, school days
Starting to slip I'm losin' my mind
Used to be the wild one
Hated class only lived for fun
I'm mean an' got my schemes
At the crazy age of eighteen
Never made the honor roll
Hated rules what I was told
Now I am almost free
It's a dangerous scene when you're eighteen
School days, school days
I'm older, now what will I find
School day, school days
Starting to slip I'm losin' my mind
Hated homework, was a sweet heartbreaker
But now I have my dream
I'm so rowdy for eighteen
Never read a single book
Hated homework and the dirty looks
Now I live my life
There's a lot I seen at eighteen
School days, school days
I'm older, now what will I find
School day, school days
Starting to slip I'm losin' my mind
Used to be the wild one
Hated class only lived for fun
I'm mean an' got my schemes
At the crazy age of eighteen
Never made the honor roll
Hated rules what I was told
Now I am almost free
It's a dangerous scene when you're eighteen
School days, school days
I'm older, now what will I find
School day, school days
Starting to slip I'm losin' my mind

Love Is Pain
Hey you must obey
Or you will bleed
You know I need to get my way
So now you listen up
You are my pup
I beat you up in every way
An' when I speak to you
You answer true
Or I will make you black and blue
I love to make you wait
You take the bait
I know you hate and love me too
We are not to blame
For seeing love is pain
An' we are not ashamed
To say that love is pain
An' we'll do it again
I know you're not afraid
'Cause when you stayed
You knew you made the final show
So now you must submit
I'll never quit till you admit
You'll never go
We are not to blame
For seeing love is pain
We are not ashamed
To say that love is pain
We are not ashamed, we are not ashamed
We are not ashamed, we are not ashamed
To say that love is pain
And we'll do it again
Or you will bleed
You know I need to get my way
So now you listen up
You are my pup
I beat you up in every way
An' when I speak to you
You answer true
Or I will make you black and blue
I love to make you wait
You take the bait
I know you hate and love me too
We are not to blame
For seeing love is pain
An' we are not ashamed
To say that love is pain
An' we'll do it again
I know you're not afraid
'Cause when you stayed
You knew you made the final show
So now you must submit
I'll never quit till you admit
You'll never go
We are not to blame
For seeing love is pain
We are not ashamed
To say that love is pain
We are not ashamed, we are not ashamed
We are not ashamed, we are not ashamed
To say that love is pain
And we'll do it again

(Im Gonna) Run Away
I can't take it
This is gettin' silly
Can't find me no tranquility
Anymore, I just can't get through to you
We're fakin' it, it's time to admit it

All the time, there's nothin' left for me to do
No, so

I'm never comin' back to you
Yeah yeah, I'm gonna run away
I'm never comin' back to you
We were friends but now you're the enemy
Don't need this when there's a remedy
It's the end
Play your trick on someone new
I'm gonna run away
I'm never comin' back to you
Yeah yeah, I'm gonna run away
