Words and Music by Steven Page
I never thought that you would
Love me the way that you do.
I never thought that you would
Love me half as much as I do.
You say you want to know
Everything about me -- well here you go,
Buf if you want it girl, you got it;
It`s all right here in my box set.
I never thought that words like
Product would ever leave my libs,
But something happened to me
Somewhere that made me lose my grip.
Maybe it`s a lack of inspiration
That makes me stoop,
Or maybe it`s a lack of
Renumeration; I can`t recoup.
But if you want it, folks, you got it;
It`s all right here in my box set.
Disc One
It`s where we`ve begun, it`s all my greatest hits,
And if you are a fan then you know that you`ve
already got `em
Disc Two
It was all brand new, and album`s worth of songs,
but we had to leave the whole disc blank because
Some other label bought `em
Disc Three
This is really me in a grade school play,
I had about a hundred thousand lines, but of course
I forgot `em
I never thought there`d be days like this,
There was always someone at my door.
I never thought I would ever miss,
And the crowd would always holler for more.
But now it seems all that people want
Is what I used to be
And every time I try to do something new,
All they want is 1973.
I never thought I`d be regretful
Of all my past success
But some stupid number one hit single
Has got me in this mess.
You can put it on every compilation -- that`s alright.
You can hear it on the oldies radio station every night.
And if you want it again, you got it --
It`s right here in my box set.
Disc Four
Never released before,
And you can tell why;
It`s just some demos
I recorded in my basement.
Disc Five
I was barely alive,
I was coughing up a lung
So they had to use
A special computer as my replacement.
Disc Six
A dance remix,
So I can catch the latest trend
And it`ll make you scratch your head
And wonder where my taste went.
So now my fans are crying sellout,
They say I`ve lost my touch
They say I should just get the hell out
Before I do too much.
Hear my songs in an ad for a bathroom cleanser --
They say it`s greed,
And now I`m wondering where my friends are
In this time of need.
But if you change your mind and buy it,
I hope you enjoy my new box set.
