used to know a thing called happiness
but ever since you went away
that feeling has gone astray

(don't remember next bit)

but then you went away
and i fell apart
why did you do it
why'd you put me through it

Mr happy

Cares about others instead of himself
Not interested in girls or anyone else
Hes mr happy can’t you see
Got a funny walk and talks slightly slurred
To say he is straight would be completely absurred

Hes mr happy and he doesn’t know why
Hes mr happy and hes higher than the sky
But then he comes down and takes it out on himself
Mr happy is nobody at all

People say hes cute but wouldn’t screw him
Tall and scrawny guy, see right thru him
Hes mr happy, dono’t get me wrong
Hes the one here writing this song
No reason left to live,
Except maybe her

Y’see mr happy thinks he in love for the first time
With a woman hes never even met
They say shes just words on a screen
But he is madly in love with her

Mr happy nevers been in love before
Just look at him and you’ll see why
He’d still be a virgin at 45
Don’t ever look him in the eyes
He bites

Oh mr happy what are you doing to yourself
Never been in love with anyone else
Mrs mr happy, mr happy, mr happy

Never leaes the house unless hes stoned
Cause he doesn’t really like being alone
Hes mr happy can’t you see
No reason in the world to carry on
His life has been record in a song
Please mr happy, smile for me

and if your ears ain't ringing
it ain't up loud enough
if your ears aren't ringin
then its not rock n' roll

Possible Song Titles and Concepts

Ok i was just thinking of some good titles i could write song names from:

maintain the rage
as i drift away
Love me and leave me
whatever you want
Rock n' roll time
(You'll be the) Death of me
Hung up on you
Party time
makin' and chasin'
(11/9/06)
This bitch bites
down n out

I'll put a dot next to them when i finish the song. Another idea i had today on the bus, was to write an entire album just on one of my past relationships, how they went from love at first sight to eternal affection to disenchantment to complete hate and lies. I'm sure i could work 8-10 songs out of that. more later

(gonna get) Rockin’ tonite

first song i ever wrote - 12 bar rockablues for piano in f major

(gonna get) Rockin’ tonite

Well we’re a rockin’ and a rollin’
Gonna have a good time tonight
Gonna play my little song
Play it on into the night
If you’re here to see the sights
Come we with turn out the lights
‘cause we’re gonna be a rockin’
Gonna get rockin’ tonite

Now we’re jumpin’ and a shoutin’
The parties just gone up a gear
It’s really getting’ steamy
All the pretty girls are here
Take a look around and you will see
The way that things ought to be
Rockin’ and a rollin’
Raisin’ the roof tonight

Now we’re dancin’ and a jumpin’ round
Getting’ close to 3am
All the pretty girls are here
Getting’ lovin’ from their men
It’s heating up see them shake their stuff
I won’t leave till I’ve seen enough
‘cause we’re gonna get rockin’
We’re already jumpin’ tonight

We’ve been a rockin’ and a rollin’
She’s been shakin’ it all night long
The parties almost over
4 times I’ve played this song
We came we saw we conquered all
Everyones here passed out on the lawn
We’ve been a rockin’ and a rollin’
And we’re all comin’ back tomorrow for more
