Kettleless in Baltimore

Waiting for some water to boil,
I'm staring at the stove and thinking to myself,
"Why does it take so long for me to boil water everyday?"
But then I notice,
Yeah.
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
Now won't you hear my song?
Making some mac and cheese,
I plan to add some extra cheddar in,
But before I can do that I need something more:
Some hot water,
Yeah.
But I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
Now won't you hear my song?
Inviting some friends for tea,
We talk and laugh and talk for an hour or so,
But as they ready to leave they ask me,
"Hey, what about that tea?"
The water's still not boiling,
No.
'Cause I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
Now won't you hear my song?
I don't got one,
What are we gonna do?
I don't got one,
Even though it only costs a buck or two.
I don't got one,
I hope this doesn't mean that we're through.
I don't got one, got- oh god.
I don't got one,
It's strange, but it's true.
I don't got one,
Can I borrow one from you?
I don't got one,
Gonna have to wait an hour or two.
I don't got one, got- oh god.
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
Now won't you hear my song?
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
I'm kettleless in Baltimore,
Now won't you hear my...

Cinderella Story

Cinderella doesn't need her slippers anymore
Cinderella doesn't need 'em
She's been living the dream, she's doing
Everything she ever wanted to but
Those shoes have got no use
You can try and try to put them on
But the fit will never be perfect
Sure, you can squeeze on in
But can you get out without breaking them
The chips and cracks of all those girls who have
Tried to fill those shoes before you...
Cinderella doesn't need her slippers anymore
She didn't even keep 'em
They've been given away, they've been bought and sold
For fame and favours; friends and gold
But never for love
You can try and try to put them on
But the fit will never be perfect
Sure, you can squeeze on in
But can you get out without breaking them
The chips and cracks of all those girls who have
Tried to fill those shoes before you...
Cinderella's just a fairytale
And I'm no fairy so it's just as well
There's no prince charming waiting round the bend
But happiness doesn't come in twos
And that's the only ever after I choose
Cinderella...

Silent Pictures

I fell in love with the boy in the silent pictures,
And the way that he spoke from the heart.
He didn't ask me to stay but I could never go away
Until he betrayed my love
I was engaged to disengagement
You wouldn't speak and I couldn't see
I came to all the wrong conclusions about you
But you were wrong for me
Don't feel so down, it's not your fault
You're not alone in this town, don't feel so small
Don't feel so down, it's not your fault
Gonna make something of this town after all
You gave me your word, but it was empty
Had a knack for writing in the blanket verse
With every line I thought that things were getting better
But somehow it felt so much worse
I'm still impressed by your resistance
To the words that I sang for you
I gave you my tongue on a silver platter
You bit in, but you just couldn't chew
Don't feel so down, it's not your fault
You're not alone in this town, don't feel so small
Don't feel so down, it's not your fault
Gonna make something of this town after all
Gonna make something of this town after all
Gonna make something of this love after all
