Magnólia

01. One - Aimee Mann

One is the loneliest number 
That you'll ever do 
Two can be as bad as one 
It's the loneliest number since the number one 
"No" is the saddest experience you'll ever know 
Yes, it's the saddest experience you'll ever know 
Because one is the loneliest number 
That you'll ever do 
One is the loneliest number 
That you'll ever know 

It's just no good anymore since you went away 
Now I spend my time just making rhymes of yesterday 
Because one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do 
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever know 
One is the loneliest number 
One is the loneliest number 
One is the loneliest number 
That you'll ever do 
One is the loneliest number much, much worse than two 
One is a number divided by two 

02. Momentum - Aimee Mann

Oh, for the sake of momentum
I've allowed my fears to get larger than life
And it's brought me to my current agendum
Where upon I deny fulfillment has yet to arrive

And I know life is getting shorter
I can't bring myself to set the scene
Even when it's approaching torture
I've got my routine

Oh, for the sake of momentum
Even though I agree with that stuff about seizing the day
But I hate to think of effort expended
All those minutes and days and hours I have fritted away

And I know life is getting shorter
I can't bring myself to set the scene
Even when it's approaching torture
I've got my routine

But I can't confront the doubts I have
I can't admit that maybe the past was bad
And so, for the sake of momentum
I'm condemning the future to death so it can match the past

03. Build That Wall - Aimee Mann

She's been a long time on the phone
Courting disaster in an undertone
She's feeling nostalgic, I'm feeling that fall
How could anyone ever fight it?
Who could ever expect to fight it?
When she builds that wall

Maybe it's one where time will tell
Maybe it's one where it's just fare-thee-well
I hear her coming as she walks down the hall
How could anyone ever fight it?
Who could ever expect to fight it?
When she builds that wall

I know the choice is made
"I can tell", I said, "by your guilty face"
And I never was one to fight it.
How does anyone ever fight it?

You couldn't pin this one on me
You knew my thoughts so far as I could see
Well, I'd say it's hopeless but you make the call
'Cause I never was one to fight it
And if given the chance, I guess I'll learn to
Build that wall

04. Deathly - Aimee Mann

Now that I've met you
Would you object to never seeing each other again?
'Cause I can't afford to climb aboard you
No one's got that much ego to spend

Chorus:
So don't work your stuff
Because I've got troubles enough
No, don't pick on me
When one act of kindness could be
Deathly, Deathly, Definitely

'Cause I'm just a problem for you to solve
And watch dissolve in the heat of your charm
But what will you do when you run it through?
And you can't get me back on the farm

Repeat Chorus

You're on your honor 'cause I'm a goner
And you haven't even begun
So do me a favor, if I should waver
Be my savior and get out the gun

Just don't work your stuff
Because I've got troubles enough
No, don't pick on me
When one act of kindness could be
Deathly, Deathly, Definitely

05. Driving Sideways - Aimee Mann

At least you know, you were taken by a pro
I know just how you feel
She talked a perfect game, deflecting all the blame
You took the jack and changed the flat
And got behind the wheel
Now you're driving sideways
Taken in by the scenery as you propelled along
And your companion will not help you to navigate
For fear she may be wrong

And you will say that you're making headway
And you put it in overdrive
But you're mistaking speed for getting what you need
And never even noticing you never do arrive
'Cause you're driving sideways
If you roll down the window you'll see
You're where you don't belong
And your companion will not help you to navigate
For fear she may be wrong

And you're powered by the hopeful lie
That it's just around the bend
And when this, by default,
Comes screeching to a halt
Let's hope that you know what to do
To start it up again

Driving sideways, hitting scan on the radio
So she can sing along.
And she'll sit, thinking you're going to handle it
Until she's proven wrong, until she's proven wrong
Until you prove her wrong

06. You Do - Aimee Mann

You stay the night at his house
With no ride to work
And I'm the one who tells you
He's another jerk
But you're the one who can succeed
You've only got to prove your need
And you do, you really do

The sex you're trading up for
What you hope is love
Is just another thing that
He'll be careless of
But though there are caveats galore
You're only got to love him more
And you do, you really do
Even when it's all too clear

You write a little note that
You leave on the bed
And spend some time dissecting
Every word he said
And if he seemed a little strange
Well, baby, anyone can change
And you do, you do, you really do

07. Nothing Is Good Enough (Instrumental) - Aimee Mann

08. Wise Up - Aimee Mann

It's not
What you thought
When you first began it
You got
What you want
Now you can hardly stand it, though
By now you know
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

You're sure
There's a cure
And you have finally found it
You think
One drink
Will shrink you 'til you're underground
And living down
But it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

Prepare a list of what you need
Before you sign away the deed
'Cause it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
No, it's not going to stop
'Til you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
'Til you wise up.
No, it's not going to stop
So just give up

09. Save Me - Aimee Mann

You look like a perfect fit for a gorl in need of a tourniquet
But can you save me. Come on and save me.
If you could save me from the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

'Cause I can tell you know what it's like.
The long farewell of the hunger strike.
But can you save me. Come on and save me.
If you could save me from the ranks of the freaks.
Who suspect they could never love anyone.

You struck me dumb. Like radium. Like Peter Pan.
Or Superman. You will come to save me.
Come on and save me if you could.
Save me from the ranks of the freaks.
Who suspect they could never love anyone.
Except the freaks who suspect they could never love anyone.
But the freaks who suspect they could never love anyone.

10. Goodbye Stranger - Supertramp

It was an early morning yesterday
I was up before the dawn
And I really have enjoyed my stay
But I must be moving on

Like a king without a castle
Like a queen without a throne
I'm an early morning lover
And I must be moving on

Now I believe in what you say
Is the undisputed truth
But I have to have things my own way
To keep me in my youth

Like a ship without an anchor
Like a slave without a chain
Just the thought of those sweet ladies
Sends a shiver through my veins

And I will go on shining
Shining llike brand new
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few

Goodbye stranger it's been nice
Hope you find your paradise
Tried to see your point of view
Hope your dreams will all come true

Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane
Will we ever meet again
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain

Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane
Will we ever meet again
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain

Now some they do and some they don't
And some you just can't tell
And some they will and some they won't
With some it's just as well

You can laugh at my behavior
That'll never bother me
Say the devil is my savior
But I don't pay no heed

And I will go on shining
Shining llike brand new
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few

11. Logical Song - Supertramp

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
clinical, intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the world's asleep,
the questions run too deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you'reacceptable,
respectable, presentable, a vegetable!

At night, when all the world's asleep,
the questions run so deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.
