VERSE 1
Golf club boys and southern belles
Bewildered by his lack of spunk
Lives in a mansion
Yet he dresses like a speedway drunk
Everything about him’s a mystery
His family don’t get him and neither do we
VERSE 2
Every clique and circle
Plays with him like a little toy
One day he’s a bigot
And the next he thinks he’s a ghetto boy
Ain’t nothing in the world more sad
Than a redneck who thinks he’s black
CHORUS
Oh why
Does he try so hard
Oh my
It’s such a funny state
The Rich Hick Wonder’s at it again
Does something stupid when he walks in
Everyone laughs and he gives a big grin
He’ll never realize that they’re laughing at him
VERSE 3
Brags about connections
That we know are nothing but hearsay
One day he knows NASCAR
And the next he knows the NBA
Erasing history just because he’s new
Always singing a different tune
CHORUS
Oh why
Does he have to lie
Oh my
You’re trying way too hard
The Rich Hick Wonder’s at it again
Does something stupid when he walks in
Everyone laughs and he gives a big grin
He’ll never realize that they’re laughing at him

VERSE 1
It’s been such a long time since I saw you last
Never thought that things would be this way
A different woman now lights my heart’s flame
You’d never let me light yours anyway
You came to mind out of the blue
How years ago, I had a crush on you
But there was a rock I just couldn’t break through
And now it’s pointless to start something anew
CHORUS
Kimberly, now I understand
Feelings don’t last based on a pretty face
Desperation makes you a crazy man
So sudden so bizarre how things easily change
VERSE 2
Tons of women tell optimistic lies
Yet you had the decency to just say no
You had no time for no silly games
Maybe that’s why I liked you so
I should have asked for more in a girl
Than just a face and voice of a pearl
I couldn’t see we were on different isles
Causes wishful thinking had blinded my eyes

VERSE 1
Months to plan a union
For two more white fence marionettes
But happily ever after’s
Don’t come with the same charrettes
Exchanged my hellish habits
For slavery from above
Is this this price we pay
For a stupid game called love?
Treat me like an ATM
Took all the tricks out my sleeves
If you were broke at the altar
You’ll be dirt poor when you leave
Once upon a time
We had a burning ring of fire
You’re never told at all
That it could possibly expire
CHORUS
We wanted each other for all the wrong reasons
We needed each other to fuel our family treasons
We dreamed of each other more than we care to admit
We never noticed the ever-changing seasons
We loved each other for all things perverse
We take one step forward, then two in reverse
We fight over second place, forgetting the first
We stay together for better, mostly for worse
VERSE 2
We have too much regrets
For us to ever remain friends
But we’re far too cheap and lazy
To tie up any loose ends
We both have no more secrets
Got the mental scars to show
If there were any low blows
They were hit a long time ago
You hurl insults one day
And next day you patronize
Talk to the air once a week
Pastor paints you sanctified
Your crazy train of thought
Derails on outta your mouth
Reveal what’s in the fine print
And everything falls south
CHORUS

VERSE 1
I’ll love you in the midnight hour
Your heart I’ll devour
Whether it be sweet or sour
I’ll love you when the moon shines bright
All the day and all the night
Make you feel so right
I’ll love you when your heart starts to roam
Gonna bring it on back home
Just gimme time with us alone
I’ll love you when you start to see
That you’re the only girl for me
I’ll end your misery
CHORUS
Beggings not my scene
Let me show you what I mean
Cause action speaks louder than words
VERSE 2
I want you when the night turns to cold
When the new turns to old
Think of all the love untold
I need you so long as you need me
I’ll make your heart feel free
A feeling peaceful and easy
You need someone to break your wonderwall
Someone who’s there when you fall
Someone to give you his all
CHORUS
INTERLUDE/A Response to the Gurls of Spice
I know what you want
What you really really want
You want a man
Who’s not afraid of what you flaunt
I’ll get with your girlfriends and I’ll love them too
Cause I don’t want no one in your circle feeling blue
Whomever needs Loving, I’m always there to lend
A friendship with me would never ever end

Sweet Words Of Nothing
04:11

VERSE 1
You know I can't imagine life without you
I guess now's a good time to start
Because lately I have noticed strange habits
And news has went around
that something's going down
when we're apart
Don't you recall the vows we made in Accomac?
Promises of bliss
Sealed with a kiss
With your fingers crossed behind your back
CHORUS
Sweet words of nothing mean something to someone
Especially if they have nothing to lose
You did not mean a word, but I could not tell
A bitter truth within a pleasant ruse
VERSE 2
You know this is where my loneliness starts
Because something sure has changed
Love cannot be built upon question marks
Yet you have put me
under lock and key
while you're unchained
Try to fake a smile and a convincing glare
And maybe a quick shag
To hide your red flag
But your hesitance reveals that it's still there
CHORUS
