What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my daughter (cd)



Borrowed this one from my daughter. Her taste is not as good as mine, but occasionally she comes through. Had not really listened to much Pink before. I had heard her, but never really listened to her if you know what I mean. Once I put aside my underwear dancer bias, there are some great songs on here. Pulled from three different albums, plus two new tunes thrown in to make the fanatics purchase it. Love eight songs out of the sixteen on this album. With that many standouts, the favorite is tough, but gotta go with Family Portrait. Very powerful message with an emotional delivery, chill type. The two new songs on here are Raise Your Glass and F**kin' Perfect going to #1 and #2 on the charts. I prefer the second one. Can't say there is anything on here I did not like but Dear Mr. President comes closest. The album reached #5.

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Dear Mr. President

Best Track - Family Portrait

Mama please stop cryin'
I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and it's
Tearing me down

I hear glasses breakin'
As I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn't mean
Those nasty things you said
You fight about money
'Bout me and my brother
And this I come home to
This is my shelter

It ain't easy, growin' up in world war 3
Never known what love could be
You'll see,
I don't want love to destroy me
Like it has done my family

Can we work it out (Can we)
Can we be a family (Can we)
I promise I'll be better (I promise)
Mommy I'll do anything (I'll do anything)
Can we work it out?
Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better
Daddy please don't leave

Daddy please stop yelling (stop)
I can't stand the sound (can't stand the sound)
Make mama stop cryin'
'Cause I need you around (yeah yeah yeah)
My mama she loves you (I know it)
No matter what she says it's true
I know that she hurts you
But remember I love you too!

I ran away today, ran from the noise
Ran away (ran away)
Don't wanna go back to that place
But don't have no choice, no way (no choice, no way)

It ain't easy, growin' up in world war 3
Never knowin' what love could be
But I've seen, I don't want love to destroy me
Like it did my family

Can we work it out (Can we work it out ohhhhhh!)
Can we be a family
I promise I'll be better (I promise)
Mommy I'll do anything (Anything to keep you here!!!!)
Can we work it out
Can we be a family
I promise I'll be better (I promise, I promise)
Daddy please don't leave

In our family portrait (In our family portrait)
We look pretty happy (We look pretty happy)
Let's play pretend, let's act like it (let's act let's act let's act like it comes)
Comes naturally
I don't wanna have to split the holidays (no no)
I don't want two addresses (no no no no nooo)
I don't want a stepbrother anyways
And I don't want my mom to have to change her last name!!!!
Ohhhhhhhh no no no no no noooooooohhhhh no no no no no

(Little kidz chorus)
In our family portrait
We look pretty happy
We look pretty normal
Lets go back to that
In our family portrait
We look pretty happy
Lets play pretend, act like it
Goes naturally

In our family portrait (Can we work it out)
We look pretty happy (Can we be a family)
We look pretty normal (I promise I'll be better)
Lets go back to that (Mommy I'll do anything)
In our family portait (Can we work it out)
We look pretty happy (Can we be a family)
Lets play pretend (I promise I'll be better)
Act like it goes naturally,(Daddy please don't leave)
Oh lets go back Oh lets go back that
Remember the days, remember the days

In our family portrait (Can we work it out)
We look pretty happy (Can we be a family)
We look pretty normal (I promise I'll be better)
Lets go back to that (Mommy I'll do anything)
In our family portait (Can we work it out)
We look pretty happy (Can we be a family)
We look pretty normal (I promise I'll be better)

Don't leave... don't leave... Daddy don't leave...
Don't leave... Daddy don't leave...
Daddy don't leave.. Daddy don't leave... Daddy dont leave...
Don't leave... don't leave...
Turn around please... He's so mad

Remember that the night you left
You took my shining star
Daddy don't leave...
Daddy don't leave...
Daddy don't leave...
Don't leave us here alone

Mama'll be nicer
I'll be so much better
I'll tell my brother
Oh I won't spill the milk at dinner
I'll be so much better
I'll do everything right
I'll be your little girl forever
I'll go to sleep at night
