      Thinking Of You
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

      Have you ever stood outside a picket fence
      You could see through but you can't get to the inside
      You sit there and wait
      I look at you and anticipate
      What we could be and what we could do

      Fly the wings of an eagle
      Glide along with the wind
      No matter how high
      I'll be thinking of you the whole time
      Fly with wings of an eagle
      Glide along with the wind
      No matter how high
      I'll be thinking of you the whole time
      I'm carrying this heavy load
      I don't know what to do
      The only thing I know is that
      I'm in love with you Oh
      Fly the wings of an eagle
      No matter how high
      I'll be thinkin' of you

      (Repeat Chorus

      No matter how high
      No matter how low
      I'll be thinking of you
      No matter what I do
      No matter where I go
      I'll be thinking of you

      (Repeat)

      MMMBop
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

      You have so many relationships in this life
      Only one or two will last
      You're going through all this pain and strife
      Then you turn your back and they're gone so fast
      And they're gone so fast
      So hold on the ones who really care
      In the end they'll be the only ones there
      When you get old and start losing your hair
      Can you tell me who will still care
      Can you tell me who will still care

      Mmm bop, ba duba dop
      Ba du bop, ba duba dop
      Ba du bop, ba duba dop
      Ba du
      Mmm bop, ba duba dop
      Ba du bop, Ba du dop
      Ba du bop, Ba du dop
      Ba du

      Plant a seed, plant a flower, plant a rose
      You can plant any one of those
      Keep planting to find out which one grows
      It's a secret no one knows
      It's a secret no one knows

      (Repeat Chorus)

      In an mmm bop they're gone. In an mmm bop they're not there.
      In an mmm bop they're gone. In an mmm bop they're not there.
      Until you lose your hair. But you don't care.

      (Repeat Chorus)

      Can you tell me? You say you can but you don't know.
      Can you tell me which flower's going to grow?
      Can you tell me if it's going to be a daisy or a rose?
      Can you tell me which flower's going to grow?
      Can you tell me? You say you can but you don't know.

      Weird
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/D. Child0

      Isn't it weird. Isn't it strange.
      Even though we're just two strangers on this runaway train
      We're both trying to find a place in the sun
      We've lived in the shadows, but doesn't everyone
      Isn't it strange how we all feel a little bit weird sometimes
      Isn't it hard. Standing in the rain.
      You're on the verge of going crazy and your heart's in pain
      No one can hear though you're screaming so loud
      You feel all alone in a faceless crowd
      Isn't it strange how we all get a little bit weird sometimes.
      Sitting on the side. Waiting for a sign. Hoping that my luck will change.
      Reaching for a hand that can understand, someone who feels the same.
      When you live in a cookie cutter world being different is a sin.
      So you don't stand out. And you don't fit in. Weird.
      Sitting on the side. Waiting for a sign. Hoping that my luck will change.
      Reaching for a hand that can understand, someone who feels the same.
      When you live in a cookie cutter world if you're different you can't win.
      So you don't stand out and you don't fit in. Weird.
      Isn't it strange how we all feel a little bit weird
      Strange, how we all get a little bit.
      Strange, 'cause we're all just a little bit weird sometimes.

      Speechless
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/S. Lironi)

      Everybody wonders and some people know
      I guess that I'm some people 'cause baby it shows
      When will you do it? And why will you go?
      If you've already decided then deliver the blow

      The way you walk around me. The way you talk around me.
      You act so speechless. You've got nothing to say.
      The way you walk around me. The way you're talking to me.
      Makes me wonder. If this was only play.
      And I wonder will you still love me?
      Do you still love me, like you did before.

      Said come on baby you think I'm so blind
      I see what you're doing behind my back all the time
      I get suspicious when you call me someone else's name
      You think I don't notice that nothing's the same...anymore

      (Repeat Chorus0

      And I wonder will you still love me?
      Did you ever love me, or were you playing with me before
      Ohh baby you think I'm so blind
      Ohh baby I'm not playing around this time

      (Repeat Chorus)

      And I wonder will you still love me?
      Did you ever love me, or are you showing me the door
      Ohh baby you think I'm so blind
      Ohh baby I'm not playing around this time

      Where's the Love
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/M. Hudson/S. Salover)

      Something has been going on and I don't know what it is
      You don't mind the taking girl, but you don't know how to give
      You drove me crazy but I don't know baby
      You're thinking that it's me you're fooling
      Where's the right in, all of our fighting?
      Look at what you're doing

      Where's the love
      It's not enough
      It makes the world go 'round and 'round and...
      Where's the love
      Give it up
      It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round

      Can you tell me what you see whenever you look around?
      We're tripping all over ourselves and pulling each other down
      We're separating, consciousness is fading
      Are you thinking that it's me you're fooling?
      Where's the right in, all of our fighting?
      Look at, look at, look at what we're doing

      (Repeat Chorus)

      Dark clouds all around, lightning, rain pouring down
      Waiting for the bright light to break through
      Face down on the ground
      Pick us up at the lost and found
      We've got to change our point of view, if we want the sky blue
      We're segregating, consciences are fading
      You're thinking that it's me you're fooling
      Where's the right in, all of our fighting
      Look at what we're doing

      (Repeat Chorus)

      Won't you, won't you give it up

      Yearbook
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/E. Shipley)

      Dear Amy, see you in September
      Hope that you remember me next year
      Hey Jamie, you've been a great friend to me
      I hope that I'll still see you around here
      'Cause I'm looking through the yearbook then I find that empty space
      There's a name without a picture, but I can't forget his face

      Tell me where did he go, I want to know
      Where did Johnny go?
      It says, "Picture unavailable" right here
      More than sad, it makes me mad to know somebody knows
      There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?

      Poor Katie, she won't even speak his name
      None of us will ever be the same
      It's quiet in the halls, but I hear echoing off the walls.
      The rumors of Johnny's mystery
      'Cause I'm looking through the yearbook then I find that empty space
      No he never wrote me nothing, but I can't forget his face

      (Repeat Chorus)

      Ohhh. There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?
      Ohhh. There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?
      Sometimes I think I hear him calling out my name
      Sometimes I wonder if maybe we're to blame
      It's been a year now and a lot of things have changed
      But I keep thinking about Johnny. I keep turning to that page.
      Where did he go I want to know, Where did he go I want to know?
      Ohhh. There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?
      Ohhh. There's a lying in your silence. Tell me where did Johnny go?

      Look At You
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/S. Lironi)

      Look at you baby
      Standing in the shadows wondering what I'm doing here
      Wishing something would happen, maybe I could disappear
      She walks in with that look in her eye
      Somehow she doesn't even have to try
      Just kick off your shoes, get on the floor
      This is what we came here for
      Oooooh, you've got to break it down
      You've got to get it out
      Just get on the floor

      Everybody wonders when they look at you
      Everybody wonders what you're gonna do
      You got it all wrapped up you do
      Everybody wonders when they look at, look at you

      Look at you baby, look at you baby
      In the middle of the dance floor lights shinin' in my face
      Twistin', shoutin' there was no doubt people dancing all over the place
      Out of the corner of my eye she said why don't you come and give it a try
      Get on the floor, just kick off your shoes
      You ain't got a thing to lose
      Oooooh, you've got to break it down
      It's time to get it out
      Just get on the floor

      (Repeat Chorus)
      Look at you, look at you baby
      Look at you, look at you baby
      Look at you, look at you baby
      Ooooh, Whoooooa, Whoooooa, baby
      Look at you, look at you baby
      Look at you, look at you baby
      Look at you, look at you baby
      Ooooh, Whoooooa, Whoooooa, baby
      I was standing in the shadows wondering what I'm doing here
      Wishin' something would happen so that I could disappear
      She breaks the silence with a move of her hips
      You better hang on don't want to lose your grip
      Kick off your shoes, get on the floor
      This is what we're waiting for
      Oooooh, you've got to break it down
      You've got to get it out. Just get on the floor.

      Lucy
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/M. Hudson)

      The day that I left Lucy
      A tear fell from her eye
      Now I don't have nobody, and I was such a fool
      On the day that I left Lucy.
      The day that I left Lucy she cried, then said goodbye
      Now it's done, and it's over, and I am all alone
      On the day that I left Lucy
      Now I don't have anymore songs to sing
      'Cause you were everything, everything to me
      I didn't realize I felt this way, until that day
      Today I'm missing Lucy, and you say that she's OK, I hope she is.
      Now I don't have nobody and no one will ever replace...
      My Lucy
      I love Lucy, Lucy...
      On the day that I left Lucy...my Lucy

      I Will Come to You
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/B. Mann/C. Weil)

      When you have no light to guide you
      And no one to walk to walk beside you
      I will come to you
      Oh I will come to you
      When the night is dark and stormy
      You won't have to reach out for me
      I will come to you
      Oh I will come to you

      Sometimes when all your dreams may have seen better days
      And you don't know how or why, but you've lost your way
      Have no fear when your tears are fallin'
      I will hear your spirit callin'
      And I swear I'll be there come what may

      (Repeat Chorus)
      'Cause even if we can't be together
      We'll be friends now and forever
      And I swear that I'll be there come what may
      When the night is dark and stormy
      You won't have to reach out for me
      I will come to you
      Oh I will come to you
      We all need somebody we can turn to
      Someone who'll always understand
      So if you feel that your soul is dyin'
      And you need the strength to keep tryin'
      I'll reach out and take your hand

      A Minute Without You
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/M. Hudson)

      Well I woke up this morning
      And the night had been so long
      Seems that I had had my mind on you
      Well the day, it has begun, and I can't get a minute, can't get a minute without you
      You're always on my mind, you're always in my head
      And I can't live, I can't live another day without you

      'Cause when the minutes seem like hours and the hours seem like days
      Then a week goes by you know it takes my breath away
      All the minutes in the world could never take your place
      There's one-thousand-four-hundred-forty hours in my day

      I've been trying to call you all day, 'cause I got so many things that I want to say
      I'm going crazy, 'cause all my thoughts are filled with you
      There's got to be some way I can get through to you ohh

      (Repeat Chorus)

      I can't keep myself from thinking about you
      It's because I love you, and I know that it's true, whoooa
      I'll call it desperation, can't you see it in my eyes?
      That I want be with you until the sun falls from the sky

      Madeline
      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson/C. Magness)

      Out my window a memory
      I'm dying inside
      I know the way it should be
      Even though it was right in front of me
      It's something I just couldn't see
      Your lonely face
      Your lonely eyes
      But this is something you can't disguise
      It's not just me, you feel it too
      'Cause you know I belong with you
      Look at where we're going
      Tell me what can I say
      We're tracing our footsteps
      We're going the same way

      You know it, I know it, don't try to pretend
      You know it could be so much better than it's been
      Ooooh, here we go around again

      I was empty inside but I just didn't know
      You are my ten thousand roses and I let you go
      Before I make the same mistake just hold me in your arms
      We belong you know it in your heart
      Look where we're going
      No doubt in my mind
      Can't you see it's meant to be
      Oh, oh, oh...my

      Here we go 'round again. Here we go. Here we go.
      Here we go 'round again.
      Look at where we're going
      Tell me what can I say
      We're tracing our footsteps
      We're going the same way

      If I'm gone when you wake up please don't cry

      (I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

      It started at a bus stop in the middle of nowhere
      Sitting beside me was a man with no hair
      From the look on his face and the size of his toes
      He comes from a place that nobody knows
      Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
      Letting this big-toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky
      Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
      If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why

      I've been sitting here too long by a man from Milwaukee
      He's been talking too long on his yellow walkie talkie
      He's been talking to Mars but I think he's wacky
      He says they'll come get him, come get him some day

      He says where he's from is called Albertane
      There they use more than 10% of the brain
      But you couldn't tell it from they way they behave
      They run around in underwear and they never shave
      Or maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
      Letting this big-toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky
      Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
      If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why

      (Repeat Chorus)

      This is Mother Bird calling Baby Bird
      Baby Bird come in, come in Baby Bird
      For the love of Pete come in!
      This is Baby Bird...sorry I was watching Court TV
      Do you copy? Do you copy?
      Of course we copy...24 hours a day...in color
      You wouldn't believe me if I told you the rest
      The man sitting by me who was barely dressed
      Flew off to Milwaukee or perhaps Albertane
      And left me at the bus stop just barely sane
      I've been sitting here too long thinkin' about Milwaukee
      I've been talking too long on my yellow walkie talkie
      I'm talking to Mars you may think I'm wacky
      I know they'll come get me, come get me someday
      I know they'll come get me and take me away
      I know they'll come get me, come get me someday
      If not tomorrow then maybe today
