Ordinary Girl
Sing a little louder so I can sing along
Sing a little clear, I'll get to know your song
Sing a little hey yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Talk a little longer so i can stay to hear
Talk a little quieter so I have to get so near
Talk a little hey yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Ch
I'm just an ordinary girl waiting to see if
You're just an ordinary boy waiting for me
Get a little closer so i can feel your breath
Get a little nearer but don't quite kiss me yet
get a little hey yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Ch
Bridge
But you know I'm not the kind of girl who makes
a move but you can;t fight the flow
It's just the way it's gonna be
Fall a little farther so it's not just me on the floor
Fall a little harder so I can fall some more
Fall a little hey yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Ch
I'm not just an ordinary girl just wait and see
You're not just an ordinary boy
You've got me
Sing a little hey yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Talk a little hey yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Get a little hey yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Hey yeh yeh yeh

I Love It All
Get up it's late and you can't stay in bed all day
You've got to come out to play sometime
Your head is aching and you need your coffee high
Before you can open your eyes this time
Ch
But I love it all, you've got a certain style
Yes I love it all, I love it when you smile
Wake up it's time to wash and shave ands fix your tie
Don't look at me with that why on your face
Your socks don't match and you can't even find a pair
And there's never a hair in place
Ch
Bridge
When you smile
(You're not alone I can help you)
Smile
(You're not alone I can help you)
When you smile
I know you don't find it easy being you
We'll have to muddle through the night
You feel like you're such a tortured soul
But you make my whole world bright
Ch
When you smile at me.

Happy
Ch
I can make you happy
I can make you happy
I can make you happy
Yes I can
I can make you happy
I can make you happy
I can make you happy
I really can
V
I wait and hum a little song
You're coming round to my house
Round the corner won't be long
You're on your way to my house
Following the streets and signs
Ch
V
I can hear you at the door
I wait a bit to answer
i can't wait anymore
I've got to take a chance
I'm following the signs

Killing Time
Killing time while you decide what to do with your life
Killing time you're nearly fully grown
Wasting time while skipping class
Hang with your friends, have a blast
Wasting time while sending laundry home
Ch
But they're trying to to find you a way to fill your time
They're buying the years then left without a dime
Killing time it's a joke
Another paper, another smoke
Killing time, just take it really slow
Daddy's cash will pay your way
So live it up for today
Daddy's car will get you on the road
CH
But they're dying to to find you a way to fill your time
They're buying the years then left without a dime
Killing time you're nearly done
You found new ways to have some fun
Killing time will kill you in the end
Did you learn, do you know
What do you have to show
For killing time and drinking with your friends.

But I Want To
Make me, go on try
Make me look you in the eye
I don't have to do anything you say
But I want to
Make if you can
I don't think you understand me
I don't have to do anything you say
But I want to
Chorus
All my life I've been waiting for you
All my life looked for somebody who
Likes me but won't put up with things I do
And you stand up to me
You get in my face
So close that I can taste you
I don't have to do anything you say
But I want to
When you slam the door
I want you even more
I don't have to do anything you say
But I want to
Chorus
Hey yeh yeh
You stand up to me
Hey yeh yeh
You stand up to me
Chorus
Make me if you can
'Cause I want you to be my man
I don't have to do anything you say
But I want to
Make me, go ahead
And I'll send you straight to bed
You don't have to do anything I say
But you want to
I don't have to do anything you say
But I want to
I don't have to do anything you want
But I love to.
