1.	Jon Drake & The Shakes - Elizabeth Johnston 03:09	lyrics	download
I’m trying hard not to pretend you don’t cut me off in the middle of a sentence when you’re right. You allocate the time I spend wanting you. I will find a reason to come back. Did I love you in a past life? I have the right to protest the occupation of my time. I see no reason for it when you’re gone. Call it into session; assemble to the courts to find our fate and what we take for granted. We loved once or more. We’ll dance around the fire we put out long ago. It’s our way to recall. We will lie. I will take you back sometimes because it’s the only way to recall. I have the right I have the right to avoid your silly game. I have the right I have the right to join your silly game. We will lie.
2.	Jon Drake & The Shakes - Margie 04:37	lyrics	download
You can call me when you’re down When you’re crying in the bathroom And you’re cleaning out the teeth marks And you thought you were to blame Did you push a boy too far? Did you spit right in his face? You didn’t know what it was worth You didn’t know that he was mad Maybe it’s good I wasn’t there I could have hurt him bad Margie you’re such a fine girl You’re okay. Now I know that you’ve been drinkin Cause you’re gettin fit to fight And I know that you love me I heard you were cussin on the bus But I’m glad that you were gone Cause you would have made a mess of that boy Ayayayayayayayayaa seen you when you’re mad Maybe it’s good that you were gone I don’t want to hurt no one You’re such a fine boy You, you’re a fine boy With a fine girl I could tear him apart I could hurt him something bad Maybe I will Maybe I could Margie, I would tear his heart out
