(Schwartz) Mizel Mattmueller is the ruler of the world With a charming smile and a thousand three-piece suits Mizel keeps a drawer with a hundred paper plans But he don’t plan on reading a single one Mizel might admit that maybe he’s not prepared But he don’t give a shit and baby he ain’t scared Cuz I can make a lady out of any old gal Mizel says to anyone who comes to town And we don’t need to work cuz I got people for that We can drink the night away and meet some real cool cats And Mizel never knows what’s going on in the news But everybody loves him wants to be in his shoes And I will be just fine Cuz Mizel’s getting me mine He’s the ruler of the world Oh Mizel! Scream the girls Mizel Mattmueller is the ruler of the world And he forgets to check on his new wife And the vice president is a lady of the night And Mizel calls her in from time to time Everybody knows that he’s the only one But Mizel’s only thinking, “Baby make me cum!” And everybody know that he’s a stand-up guy But nobody can answer anyone who asks why When Mizel get’s the question from another world ruler With a wink and a nod says, “I’m a real straight shooter.” His friends start laughing and kidding around And everybody loves him when they see him round town But Mizel’s on the take Sinking lower everyday And all the boys and girls Are screaming, “Mattmueller for the world!”

(Schwartz) Miss Mary Winston why you leaving town? I run in circles trying to track you down I don’t know why it took so long to say That I want you in my life so please come back this way On Monday morning our Miss Mary will wake You know she always rises early don’t stay up too late And I’m awful slow to follow cuz I played the midnight show But come Tuesday afternoon, girl, I’ll be ready to go Miss Mary Winston why you leaving town? I run in circles trying to track you down I don’t know why it took so long to say That I want you in my life so please come back this way Miss Mary Winston knows I ain’t got no disease But she runs from me like water through the Mississippi Yet whenever we’re together we gon have a good time So why we asking questions girl And, damn, you’re fine Miss Mary Winston why you leaving town? I run in circles trying to track you down I don’t know why it took so long to say That I love you want you back now each and every day Miss Mary Winston why you leaving town? My wheels are turning trying to track you down I don’t know why it took so long to say That I love you more and more each and every day Miss Mary

(Schwartz) Upstairs in the middle of my room Lies a scrap of paper that you could consume If you had to Though I doubt that you picture it that way Just a packet of instructions that you will not save Though they helped you Don’t give no thanks don’t say no word Throw the paper away now with its duty served And don’t say thank you Mr. Paper, meet my friend The garbage disposal service He’ll take you away Out back in my old playing yard Lies a trinket that I would discard If not for Mommy But is is better that it’s here now? Does it keep the same meaning all through the years? I’m so forgetful Don’t give no thanks don’t say no word Won’t throw the trinket away now though its duty served And don’t say thank you Mr. Paper, meet my friend The garbage disposal service He’ll take you away Thank you Mr. Paper, meet my friend The garbage disposal service He comes every Tuesday to my house Then he goes where I won’t follow, no Way down the road To a dump I will never see

(Schwartz, Lindsay Schwartz) I see you standing there beside the stacks I found the right call number but you stop me in my tracks Looking through your glasses at the writing on the spine And I knew we’d have to find a little quiet time Now I see the book I need and it’s on the top shelf You get it down for me asking, “anything else?” When we’re at circulation and I’m checking it out Do you remember that one thing that you were asking about? Love, love, love librarian Got an overdue fine on my heart Love, love, love librarian You introduced me to Rousseau and Descartes Now I know that you’re not trying but it’s awfully mean When you’re not behind the desk I use the checkout machine We’re past the introduction and in the development But I wanna reach the climax before our book gets lent Come on baby why you hatin’? There ain’t nobody behind me waitin’ I couldn’t be more plain in statin’ that you’re my Love, love, love librarian Got an overdue fine on my heart Love, love, love librarian Our story ended before it could start I just want to be kissing but that Dewey Decimal System Doesn’t have a section just for romance I wanna scream and shout and show you what I’m all about But you’re just alphabetizing in Finance So come on baby (Baby can I check you out?) Come on baby why you hatin’? There ain’t nobody behind me waitin’ I couldn’t be more plain in statin’ that you’re my Love, love, love librarian Got an overdue fine on my heart Love, love, love librarian I wanna lay you right down on your cart Forget the movies Got an overdue fine on my heart!

(Schwartz) I’m so damn tired That I wanna sleep for a million hours I’m so damn tired That I wanna sleep, sleep, sleep Television screens and couches for two Sitting upright driving my Subaru These are the things that get in my way Of sleeping, sleeping, sleeping Like when I’m next to you I’m so damn tired That I wanna sleep for a million hours I’m so damn tired That I wanna sleep, sleep, sleep Television screens and couches for two Sitting upright driving my Subaru These are the things that get in my way Of sleeping, sleeping, sleeping I wake up and stare at my wall Wondering how I got to sleeping at all I don’t know if you care, I don’t know if you knew But I wonder if I could have slept next to you Television screens and couches for two Sitting upright driving my Subaru These are the things that get in my way Of sleeping, sleeping, sleeping Of sleeping, sleeping, sleeping Of sleeping, sleeping, sleeping Like when I’m next to you
