Tonight’s the night You said you’d tell me that you love me And though I try I can’t believe that you’ll still want me Enough’s enough Don’t know that past tonight I’ll be your one The dead flowers You left upon my doorstep sweetly Should I reply With gentle kisses or so scaredly Enough’s enough Don’t know that past tonight I’ll be your one You tell me yours is more than Mine, although, I know that I love you most Wish I could deny I love you most Wish I could deny I love you And on my neck The bite you left has started bruising So go ahead Is it my fear or you I’m losing Enough’s enough Don’t know that past tonight I’ll be your one

Listen up, I'm coming after you With nunchucks and an attitude You won't be laughing, Ding-Dong When I'm jumping around with your boys in my hand Laughing...COVERED IN BLOOD You ran right over my cat Now I hate your guts Your chick's ugly and a brat Gonna crush your nuts!

Wreckage 03:36
Every time I see you Maybe I don’t wanna be Caught up in the wreckage Caught up in the wreckage When I’m swerving out the road And I’m blinking at not thinking Stop short gas pedal low And she’s thinking about winking Will she start to stop Will she skip my block for me, just me Telephone yapping Foot gas tapping Singing to the radio Song it’s blasting chorus lasting And she doesn’t even know Every time I see you Maybe I don’t wanna be Caught up in the wreckage, Caught up in the wreckage (too) Chrome and green not built for two Not drinking but not thinking Scraped knee bent wheel again And I’m thinking about screaming Will she start to stop Will she skip my block for me, just me

Sometimes I just can’t get cozy My heart it pounds and my cheeks get rosy for you…. I’ll wait Stuck here in my little palace My mind it races can’t keep the pace but for you… I’ll wait Brings me right back here again Where I can’t be true Brings me right back here again Don’t know what to do Do you wanna Dance with me (He’s always late) Dance with me (He made me wait) But at least (He’s never coming early) (NONONONO) Sniffle but my nose keeps running The clock it’s ticking can’t stop this longing for you… I’ll wait Inside here it’s hot and sticky With musk too sweet to pretend it’s dreamy for you… I’ll wait

New College 03:05
Katherine’s in her own world she’s an E head with blue hair And streaking through the party showing off her underwear yeah Keeps dancing, no quitting Chewing on the candy necklace soaked because she’s sweating Silence is a dealer sort of hippie with a bag That’s filled and overflowing with his special kind of shwag Yeah He’s way too deep in it Always getting asked so he can never ever finish And though you tell me that I’m the one I know you shouldn’t be taking me home, alone Because I’m gonna Get you, get you, get you, get you what you need Get you, get you, get you, get you so tell me You’ll be my Sid again And I’ll be Nancy Spungen whoah oh Josh sits on the bench and smoking seven packs a day He’s just an alcoholic but he’s got a lot to say and Keeps filling and turning Blue so in the morning he can’t eat because he’s hurling Julia spent all her money powdering her nose She’s not letting go She’s stripping at Pleasures For her upper habits that her tiny scale will measure

Woke up about five o'clock Had myself a veggie dog and said Don't stop Don't stop Don't rot so pretty stop and say Slept through that buzzing sound My schedule's turned around because Don't stop Don't stop Don't stop until I hear the ring You hate me, don't wanna I like it, I gotta Cos staying up is not worthwhile Waiting for that Promised call from you That promised call from you That promised call from you Oh no, woah oh oh oh Spend my time at the store That's open twenty-four and I bought,I bought A lot of semi-permanent Hair dyes and magazines Burned eyes and gasoline 'cause Don't stop Don't stop Don't stop until I hear you ring

Skinny 01:45
Know you wanna feed it Asks you to relieve it Turnin' and-a squirmin' Making me go throwing up- and up - and up Numb from all the feeling Thoughts inside stop reeling Hundred pounds and bony Third time today throwin' up - and up - and up 'Cause I'm not gonna do it again I'm not gonna do it again I'm not gonna do it again And I'm hungry Skinny girls a-walkin' Lecherous men a-gawkin' Reinforce their thinkin' Making them go throwing up - and up - and up Fifth grade after lunch There goes the vomit bunch In the stalls a-pukin' Everybody's throwing up - and up - and up They're screwing up the little girls

Nobody Else 03:09
Wrote a note and you sent it through your best friend It was cute couldn't give it me in person Asked me if i would go with you to canters iIsaid yes though it wasn's to my standards And though you're talking to me softly Can't know tomorrow you will call me And just in case you leave me after all I'll be saying I want you now i won't recover If you're untrue i will remember It's you i gave All of myself, nobody else Later on we were talking and you charmed me Sign me up i'm enlisting in your army Swept me off my eyes and undercovers Close to you and i didn't want another And so to ensure your behavior You're gonna have to sign a waiver So since all my doubt has gone away I Won't now or ever will be saying

Be My Baby 02:06
14.
You're struttin like you're special The game's not even mental Beggin for a dose of my reality Driving like a racecar The town thinks you're a big star But really you're so far from my good cup of tea Something isn't right I see it Hoping for something to beat it Ooh why why why Education lacking mongers I hope you don't breed anger Ooh why why why Oh cos you're so handsome In your alpha mansion I don't want to be your girl Says she doesn't want to Still you're gonna try to Can't imagine yours she wouldn't want to be The gang's all acting macho Taking on the John Doe Thinking he's the lesser of humanity Don't want to be your girl
15.
Saw you there when I caught your eye Didn't think you'd be something to try Because my little black book's full of guys Give me less flowers than they give me lies then Something happened and it made me think He wrote me notes using blood not ink and then I Figured that boy deserved a chance So I took him to that special dance and As I kissed him bye that night I thought tomorrow I'd see him again Until then I'll dream of him Until then I'll dream of him All night long long whoah oh oh a-oh Picked me up in his daddy's car Drove around underneath the stars And then he held me close on the dance floor I knew it's him I would adore I knew it's him I would adore and Missed him so and I just couldn't stand it Through the window in his bed I landed Well I knew this boy deserved a chance So I took him to that special dance Took him to that special dance and
16.
I see him there Why do I care His reputation warns me To be with him Fulfill his whim And hope he keeps me maybe This crush is dangerous I know he has no love for me We're doin' fine I shouldn't mind And when he leaves me waiting To be untrue Oh what to do I know he'll soon be paying This crush is dangerous I know he has no love for me All I wanna know Is should I let him go Or kill him tonight in his sleep No matter what my choice He won't be taking me Was my boyfriend With her again I guess my turn is over I knew better He may love her So now he has another This crush is dangerous I know he has no love for me

From Allmusic:
There's nothing new under the sun, especially in the world of rock & roll, and thank heaven for that. The Dollyrots are certainly nothing new -- no genre-transgressing experiments, no incongruous fusions, no mind-expanding instrumental solos or side-long suites. Just 13 tight, compact, sweet, and crunchy bursts of punky power pop. Imagine the Ramones with a girl singer and more than three chords (but not much more), or maybe Belly if Tanya Donelly didn't have that weird death thing going on. Eat My Heart Out starts off with a bang, with a brilliantly ambivalent kiss-off song titled "Kick Me to the Curb," then proceeds from strength to strength: "Jackie Chan" is just what you'd expect, a charmingly trashy celebration of kung fu movies in the guise of a breakup song; "Goodnight Tonight" couches sweetly adolescent love lyrics in grungy guitar noise over a 6/8 beat; the lyrics to "Dance With Me" read like they're probably supposed to be suggestive, but they just come across as innocently longing. Then they end the whole thing with a fantastic aggro arrangement of the Ronnie Spector classic "Be My Baby." Singer Kelly Ogden is what really makes this band work -- her voice is clear and sharp, and her delivery is by turns sweet and snotty. Very highly recommended.
