Sweetest Thing Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 I could be wealthy enough for houses all around I could be funny, book a full house in every town I could be slamming, my body in the greatest shape I could be tanning out by the ocean on the cape, On the cape It’s still the sweetest thing to fall in love And no one knows what you’ve been dreaming of It’s hard to walk around and keep your cool The natural thing is grinning like a fool It’s still the sweetest thing It’s still the sweetest thing It’s still the sweetest thing I could be honored for an invention like the car I could be brilliant, have top degrees and pass the bar I could be famous for all the hit songs of my time I could be cherished and have my face on every dime, Every dime I could have everything I could have everything But it’s not the same I still want love I still want you

IMA Lady 03:24
IMA Lady Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 Excuse me, can I help you with that jaw The looks of you would make one think I’m in my bra I’d like to shop in anonymity for just one day I’m not your next big meal, your game, your prey Was that your thought when you first took on this job You’d bum around on the clock dressed like a slob And look for chicks in the mall in need of shoes I’m Cinderella; they fit, but boy you lose Pardon me, did you notice I have a face Did you ever consider giving me some space Talking three small inches from my mouth This conversation has immediately gone south I have a chest, juicy rear, and a small waist But do you think you can so quickly get a taste This property is reserved for a real good man He’ll have to know how to love and he’ll have a plan IMA Lady, IMA lady So respect me, so respect me Defy gravity, defy gravity with your jaw, aww aww IMA Lady, IMA lady So tread carefully, tread carefully When you’re around me Don’t you hound me like a dog, raw raw You might get an eyeful every day, every day But there’s more to seeing beautiful Than skin so soft so smooth and silky Chest so firm yet soft and milky Waist so slender, cheeks so tender IMA Lady, IMA lady So respect me, so respect me Defy gravity, defy gravity with your jaw, aww aww IMA Lady, IMA lady So tread carefully, tread carefully When you’re around me, when you’re around me Don’t you crawl, awl, awl

Stick Your Tongue in My Mouth Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 We’re all at da club and everybody’s drinking Everybody’s thinking of hooking up We’re all at da club and everybody’s dreaming Everybody’s scheming one night of love I don’t even know you or anything about you But please stick your tongue in my mouth I’m giving you my number Won’t hear from you tomorrow But please stick your tongue in my mouth We’re all at da club, this place is full of rappers They all act like they trappers strutting all their stuff We’re all in da club just chilling, under forty And all of us are shorty dipping low for some love I don’t even know you or anything about you But please stick your tongue in my mouth I’m giving you my number Won’t hear from you tomorrow But please stick your tongue in my mouth You might have oral herpes or seven secret babies But go ahead and stick it in my mouth You’ve had a lot to drink You’d never recognize me But go ahead and stick it in my mouth How low can you go (so low) How low can you go (real low) We’re all on a boat just looking good and smiling Stuck on Lonely Island soaking up the sun We’re all on a boat and really tired of waiting We’re made for food and mating dipping low just for fun I don’t even know you or anything about you But please stick your tongue in my mouth I’m giving you my number, but won’t ever hear from ya But please stick your tongue in my mouth You might have oral herpes or seven secret babies But go ahead and stick it in my mouth You’ve had a lot to drink You’d never recognize me But go ahead and stick it in my mouth How low can you go (so low) How low can you go (so low) How low can you go, low, low

Never Mind 04:23
Never Mind Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 I wanted to be your favorite person Your topic among your closest friends Wanted to forget past hurts and curse them Happy my heartache phase could end Never mind, I will get on over you Changed my mind, never mind Take your time I don’t want to be with you Never mind I’ll be fine Never mind I will get on over you Save your line, never mind Never mind I wanted to work through every problem I wanted to be the biggest deal I wanted to find your puzzles and solve them I wanted to reach third base and steal And you know, and you know it all Yeah you do And you know, and you know it all And you know, and you know it all Yeah you do And you know, and you know it all You were never mine You were never mine You were never mine

Don’t Listen to Me Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 I am your heart And I’m not looking out for you, no way I am your heart And I don’t ever tell the truth to you Because I get wrapped up in desire And I’m a sneaker and a liar Don’t listen to me, I want it all Don’t listen to me, I’ll make you fall Don’t listen to me, I will deceive Don’t listen to me, I am so easy to believe I am your heart And I will tell you what to do, oh yes I am your heart Follow me for your delight, yeah right Because I was never wrong before Release the guard beyond my door And I will burn you to the core And make you come right back for more And I will draw you to my fire I’ll beg you, hang me by a wire

Seventeen 03:15
Seventeen Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 I still like gummy bears and worms I still don’t like to touch the germs Still don’t ride my bike over the sewer grill Try to get things on my terms Had my share of bangs and perms Still look for a thing in life to spark a thrill I still feel sweet deet de de deet Still feel like seventeen I try to run and I’m learning to sing I contemplate why girls are so mean Still call mom about everything I still get so emotional Stuff myself till I’m too full Still like sitting way up front to raise my hand Still have so much left to learn Made mistakes I’d like to burn It’s all better at the game and hot dog stand I’m staying this way forever I don’t want to change I act young and I like it I know it’s strange

Could I Be Your Angel Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 I forget where I am when I see you again I can’t look very long, you’re too much to take in You don’t have to say a single word I talk for both of us, I know it’s absurd Could I be your angel tonight Could I be your angel for life Could I be your, could I be your angel I never met anyone I wanted to be like I couldn’t see in someone a fuller, better life In just a minute with you the past is gone I must have been through enough and my switch is on Just ask me, just utter a sound Just hold me, and I will stay around Just ask me I’m going on the depth of what my heart can sense I picking up on your eyes and your subtle hints Could you be my angel tonight Could you be my angel for life Could you be my, could you be my, Could you be my angel tonight Could you be my angel for life Could you be my, could you be my angel Could you be my, could you be my angel Could you be my, could you be my angel

He’s so into Her Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 She’s the girl who keeps a wrench by her Tampon Glove compartment is reserved for what goes wrong Mine is there to make everything go right Extra lip gloss to last through the whole night She’s the girl who follows all the football teams She knows the terms, the plays, and all the in betweens I’m the girl in the kitchen making homemade dough I hear her screaming downstairs like go team go He’s so into her I see him smile He’s so into her, he likes her short hair and her style She’s in cargo pants and a hat that says Bass I’m in blue jeans that accentuate my ass She would take a hike for twenty-eight days straight She wouldn’t care if processed food is all she ate I can barely live a month with a suitcase I would need a special soap to wash my face She adores the Wii and all DSL games She knows the stats, the best and worst of all the names I’m outside in the sun with a brand new book I’m buying things just to go back home and cook Don’t care much about the levels And boards you’ve passed Don’t want to hear about your cars and driving fast I like to keep my hair long, not short I couldn’t win you if my case were held in court

Need a Change Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 I’m getting used to being here But there’s more for me elsewhere This only happens when I’m isolated My thoughts are escalated A firm physique is overrated Where are all the happy people for me to love I really need a change, need a change And I really need to go, need to go Where I will be taken care of I will not be afraid of things I’ve been deathly scared of I’m getting used to being here But there’s more for me elsewhere This usually happens when intoxicated My pulse is aggravated My heart feels unappreciated Where are all the shiny people for me to hold I really need a change, need a change And I really need to go, need to go Where I will be taken care of I will not be afraid of things I’ve been deathly scared of I am wasting, I’m wasting Now I’m tasting, I’m tasting My frustration, frustration On my way to elevation Please don’t let me sink too low This ship has got to go I can’t take one more blow

Empty 04:01
Empty Music & Lyrics by Rachel Farris ©2012 Thank you for the fuel when my tank was empty Thank you for the praise when I felt un-pretty Thank you for the lift when my heart was heavy Thankful that you cared Had enough in you to share And you cared to share with me The road is long She sings her song Can she make it one more mile She loses speed Knows what she needs She’ll have to sit here for a while The shirt is worn Baggies are torn Can I wear them one more day Skin is so pale Confidence frail Can I fake it, will I stay You were naked and you gave your clothes away You were drained and you mustered all your strength You were aching and you took my tears away
