(Posted on January 2nd, 2016)
(First update since September, and 2015, which means this is my first update in 2016. I thought of making a new Song Book for songs I posted in 2016, but decided against it because that meant I couldn't update this one with new songs and I wanted to keep updating this, so yeah.. Happy New Year? =^.^=
I also changed the book cover and edited the description. Current book cover is - I'm pretty sure - a photo from Rhino Records' store, because I've been to one that looks like that, but I didn't take the photo! The old book cover was a collage with multiple band members in it, which I also didn't make. Credit to who ever makes the book covers I use that I don't make! ^^)

Does it make you feel like a big shot
When you tear somebody's dreams down?
Does it make you hurt to think some other clown
Has got himself his own crown?
(You're a joke mate!)
Why count your comments when your criticism's so bland?
(You've got no taste!)
You think you've got it
'Cause they sell it on the newsstand?
Keep smiling while they cast their stones,
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you ask but they won't take note)
Keep smiling let them grind your bones
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you ask and they grind your bones)
Keep smiling lock it all inside,
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you lock it all inside...)
Where all your bitterness resides.
Do you think you're safe
Behind the scenes putting venomous dissections?
What gives you the right?
What makes you think your petty words have got conviction?
(Look who's talking now!)
When arrogance confuses facts and opinions,
(That's rich! / What a stitch! / Like you're so highbrow!)
I don't subscribe to the view
That you hold dominion over me!
Keep smiling while they cast their stones,
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you ask but they won't take note)
Keep smiling let them grind your bones
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you ask and they grind your bones)
Keep smiling lock it all inside,
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you lock it all inside...)
Where all your bitterness resides.
Ok so this is the way I see it:
All you do is commentate
On what's hot and what's not.
What's hip and what's shit.
What means something,
And what ain't nothing.
You're a leaking spout of shallow observations
Based on half-arsed assumptions.
You're spineless.
You don't add anything to this world.
You don't create anything.
It costs you nothing!
This cost us everything!
Keep smiling while they cast their stones,
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you ask but they won't take note)
Keep smiling let them grind your bones
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you ask and they grind your bones)
Keep smiling lock it all inside,
(When they ask and you can't say no / when you lock it all inside...)
Where all your bitterness resides.
