I finally finished my exams a week ago which means it's time for summer holidays now, whoop whoop. I don't miss revision at all, slacking is way more fun. Oh & I'm reading a great book -
The Madolescents by Chrissie Glazebrook. I admit it's a little worrying at times lol, but it's still hilarious & I'm enjoying it lots.
Lisa Loeb - Underdog
I like things that are so good
You are so so good, I like you
But I am the underdog, I am the last in line
Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me
Freezing, boring, wondering where I'll be on my birthday
You kissed me in a dream last night
How could I, I wouldn't know
Cause I am the underdog, I am the last in line
Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me
Will you be my friend?
Now I understand, that I more than like you
I am the underdog, I am the last in line
Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me
Lalala da-dah
I am the underdog, I am the last in line
Don't be the enemy, don't stand in back of me
I am the underdog, I am the last in line
Mmmmmmm
I like things that are so good, you are so so good

Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby (FUCKING BRILLIANT, I LOVE THIS SONG)
Yo VIP let's kick it
Ice ice baby (x2)
All right stop collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop yo I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance go rush to the speaker that booms
I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly when I play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it you better gain weight
You better hit bull's eye the kid don't play
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
CHORUS
Ice ice baby vanillla (x4)
Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in and the vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point to the point no faking
I'm cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
Burning them if you ain't quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
Rollin' in my 5.0
With my rap-top down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby waving just to say hi
Did you stop no I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
The block was dead
Yo so I continued to A1A Beachfront Avenue
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine
Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall
The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls
Gunshots rang out like a bell
I grabbed my nine all I heard were shells
Falling on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car slammed on the gas
Bumpet to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene you know what I mean
They passed me up confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
REPEAT CHORUS
Take heed 'cause I'm a lyrical poet
Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
'Cause my style's like a chemical pill
Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed
This is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade slice like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast other DJs say damn
If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while dj revolves it
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby (oh-oh) vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla ice
Yo man let's get out of here
Word to your mother
Ice ice baby too of
Ice ice baby too of too of (x2)
Ice ice baby

Taking Back Sunday - New American Classic <333 x 1000
We've got to get better said
It's all in your head
We could live through these letters
Or forget it all together
See the months they don't matter
It's the days I can't take
When the hours move to minutes and I'm seconds away
Just ask the question
Come untie the knot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
Retrace the steps
As if we forgot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
Try to aviod it
But there's not a doubt
And there's one thing I can do nothing about
With all that we need
Is just a reaction
It's too much to ask for
When there's no attraction anymore
If chasing our dreams is just a distraction
I want to remember when I know that I can't go back
Just ask the question
Come untie the knot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
Retrace the steps
As if we forgot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
Try to aviod it
But there's not a doubt
And there's one thing I can do nothing
And there's one thing I can do nothing
And there's one thing I can do nothing about

Brand New - Car
you get the car
I'll get the night off
You'll get the chance to take the world apart
And figure out how it works
Don't let me know what you find out
I need a car
You need a guide
Who needs a map
If I don't die or worse I'm gonna need a nap
At best I'll be asleep when you get back
I wanna see it when you find out what comets, stars, and moons are all about
I wanna see their faces turn to backs of heads and slowly get smaller
I wanna see it now
I want specifics on the general idea
I wanna think what I should know
Want you to do me what to show
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see movies of my dreams
I wanna see it when you get stoned on a cloudy breezy desert afternoon
I wanna see it untame itself and break its owner
I wanna see it now
I wanna see it now

Dashboard Confessional - Vindicated
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
I am captivated, I am
Vindicated
I am selfish, I am wrong, I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intentions
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me
So isolated, so motivated
I am certain now that I am
Vindicated
I am selfish, I am wrong, I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So turn
Up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment, fall forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in
Too deep now to ever swim against the current
So let me slip away (3x)
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away (4x)
Vindicated
I am selfish, I am wrong, I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
Slight hope
It dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption

Lisa Loed - When All the Stars Were Falling
When all the stars were falling, I reached up like you said.
All the stars were falling, one hit me in the head
And I fell down, down, down, I fell down, down
When all the stars were falling, they fell from above
And I thought of hate, and I thought of hate
And then I thought of love
And I fell down, down, down, I fell down, down
And I've learned how to dance from a Vincent van Gogh,
And the nights were wrapped in a white sheet
And now no one even says hello
Cos I couldn't stand on my two feet
I fell down, I fell down
Now the peace you will find, in your own you have found
The lights of the city are the stars on the ground
I may not be a quaalude living in a speed zone
But I could be restful, I could be someone's home
If I fell down, and I fell down, down
NOW ALL THE STARS HAVE FALLEN
