Snacks 01:54
My baby said what he wanted from me It wasn’t what you thought it might be It wasn’t cash or a brand new TV He just wants something that’s salty and sweet Easy and cheap That’s fine by me He just wants snacks (I just want snacks) His stomach’s growling at a quarter past nine There’s just one thing that he’s got on his mind No fancy dinner with a bottle of wine Just something simple, then he’s feeling fine What can I find This time at night? I just want snacks (He just wants snacks) I just want snacks (He just wants snacks) Where can I find some snacks at this time of night?

I know your face Can’t remember your name I’m waiting for an introduction Before I make a mistake Did you tell me before? I need a reminder Did we have a conversation? My brain is on vacation Please before I call you… Somebody else What is your name? Is it something simple? Or something more exotic I won’t stop until I hear it Please before I call you… Somebody else Here comes my hero To save me in this moment But he breaks it to me… (I don’t know their name) What is your name? (I don’t know their name) Can’t remember your name (I don’t know your name) Need to hear your name

Party Mood 01:34
Hey baby, whatcha doing to me? We could be watching a movie We could be lazing about but you go, “Thought you said that you want to have a good time” Please say where you’re taking me Will there be a lot of people? I could be drinking at home but you go, “Thought you said that you want to have a good time” There is no need to say you’re sorry I’m not in the party mood Hey baby, please say it to me Promise that we won’t be a long time I’ll stand there quiet and all 'til you go, “Thought you said that you want to have a good time” Please say that you’re leaving with me There are too many people I could’ve been drinking at home but you go, “Thought you said that you want to have a good time” There is no need to say you’re sorry I’m not in the party mood I could be home (I should be home) Relaxing all alone But now I’m texting on my phone

All this information in my head Fills up my brain until I’m dead And now there’s barely no space left If I could digitize my mind Sort out my marbles, more streamlined I might remember to be on time If they can build rocket ships They can take all this shit out of my head And all this pressure in my skull It’s filling up, it’s nearly full And now I’m ready to implode If they can build rocket ships They can take all this shit out of my head This information in my head has got to go

I know you’re feeling down And things are looking bleak But here’s a wild idea I hope that you’ll agree We can change things for the better Go back in history Hop in the accelerator And take a quantum leap Oh boy! Let’s do it again I don’t know quantum physics I don’t have those degrees But right now shit just sucks So we’ll have to believe We can change things for the better Go back in history Hop in the accelerator Let’s take a quantum leap Oh boy! Let’s do it again We can see some past events Won’t that be really neat? Let’s go through history Let’s go through history! We can change those old mistakes Make our present really sweet Let’s take a quantum leap Let’s take a quantum leap! Oh boy! Let’s do it again Oh boy! Let’s do it again Oh boy! Take that leap You, me, Sam, Al, and Ziggy Oh boy! Let’s do it again
