Medley arranged by "Weird Al" Yankovic

["Loser" by Beck]

Soy un perdedor

I'm a loser, baby,

So why don't you kill me?

Soy un perdedor

I'm a loser, baby,

So why don't you kill me?

Hey!

["Sex Type Thing" by Stone Temple Pilots]

I am I am I am

I said I wanna get next to you.

I said I'm gonna get close to you.

You wouldn't want me have to hurt you, too.

Hurt you, too.

I know you want what's on my mind.

I know you like what's on my mind.

I know it eats you up inside.

I know you know, you know, you know.

Here I come I come I come I come.

Here I come I come I come.

["All I Want To Do" by Sheryl Crow]

All I wanna do is have some fun.

I gotta feeling I'm not the only one.

All I wanna do is have some fun.

I gotta feeling I'm not the only one.

All I wanna do is have some fun.

Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard.

["Closer" by NIN]

Help me--I broke apart my insides.

Help me--I've got no soul to sell.

Help me--The only thing that works for me.

Help me get away from myself.

I wanna *poink* you like an animal.

I wanna feel you from the inside.

I wanna *boing* you like an animal.

My whole existence is flawed.

You get me closer to God.

Hey! Hey! Hey!

["Bang and Blame" by REM]

You bang bang bang bang bang.

Blame blame blame.

You bang bang bang bang bang.

It's not my thing so let it go.

["You Oughta Know" by Alanis Morisette]

'Cause the love that you gave every day wasn't able

to make it enough for you to be open wide

No!

And every time you speak her name

Does she know how you told me

You'd hold me until you died?

'Til you died.

Well you're still alive!

And I'm here to remind you

Of the mess you left when you went away.

It's not fair to deny me

Of the cross I bear that you gave to me.

You-ou-ou-ou-ou oughta know!

Hey!

["Bullet with Butterfly Wings" by Smashing Pumpkins]

Despite all my rage,

I am still just a rat in a cage!

Despite all my rage,

I am still just a rat in a cage!

And someone will say

What is lost can never be saved.

Despite all my rage,

I am still just a rat in a cage!

["My Friends" by Red Hot Chili Peppers]

I love all of you

Hurt by the cold.

So hard and lonely, too

When you don't know yourself.

["I'll Stick Around" by Foo Fighters]

I don't owe you anything!

I don't owe you anything!

I don't owe you anything!

I don't owe you anything!

["Black Hole Sun" by Soundgarden]

Black Hole Sun

Won't you come

And wash away the rain?

Black Hole Sun

Won't you come, won't you come

Black Hole Sun, Black Hole Sun

Won't you come

Black Hole Sun, Black Hole Sun

Won't you come

Black Hole Sun, Black Hole Sun

["Basket Case" by Green Day]

Do you have the time

To listen to me whine

About nothing and everything all at once?

I am one those melodramatic fools.

Neurotic to the bone,

No doubt about it.

Sometimes I give myself the creeps!

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me!

It all keeps adding up.

I think I'm cracking up.

And am I just paranoid

Or am I just stoned?

Or am I just stoned-oh-oh-oh-oh-ned?

Hey!
