The Organic Apple It's really tough to pick a favorite track and that's because this 6-song album/EP is one of my favorites. Favorite track: Everybody Loves You When They're Drunk.

Well you've been workin hard But ya ain't been gettin paid. Man ya can't get lucky, And ya can't even get laid. Ya want out Ya want out Wanna sleep like a log Just need a vacation But they're workin' you like a dog So ya can't seem to figure out the right occasion Just gotta get out To get out So ya hit the road But don't get in your car Gonna get outta here And away from it all When ya gotta stay near Ya can't afford to go far The next best thing is to Hit the bar, oh cus Everybody loves you when they're drunk. Everybody loves you when they're drunk. Ya want to escape But the boss is always lookin' round So ya keep your back straight And ya keep your nose to the ground You want out, You want out Now ya go home Tired of another day But ya can't stay in bed, Not when ya got so much to say. Just gotta get out To get out Ya couldn't stay awake Can't go to sleep So you get outta bed And head down the street Ya get on your soapbox As ya take your seat Cus this is where great minds Go to meet Couldn't stay away Shouldn't be alone Keep getting' thrown to the wolves But never thrown a bone When ya wanna relax But don't stay home The best thing's ta do a shot with Everyone, oh cus Everybody loves you when they're drunk. Everybody loves you when they're drunk. You're sicka breakin' your back And twistin' your neck Don't wanna care about your troubles Til your next paycheck You think when you're sober So you drink to forget And drown your sorrows In booze and cigarettes Ain't gonna run away Or stay at home and hide Ya gotta solve the world's problems while You imbibe Nobody's breakin your balls, Or bustin' your ass So now seems like a good time to Raise a glass oh To everyone loves you when they're drunk. Oh cus everbody loves you when they're drunk.

I'm done with your wicked I'm done with your nice I'm done with believin' Cus I'm done with your lies I'm done with your lows And I'm done with your highs I'm done with your yours And I'm done with your mys. I'm done with your highs and your lows And your comes and your goes Your hellos, but most of all, I'm done with your goodbyes. Done with goodbyes. I'm done with your rude Done with your polite I'm done with your wrong And I'm done with your right. I'm done with your blind I'm done with your sight I'm done with you morning And I'm done with you night. I'm done with your lows and your highs Your give ups and don't tries Your hellos, but most of all, I'm done with your goodbyes. I'm done with goodbyes. I'm done with your highs and your lows And your yes's and no's, Your hellos, but most of all I'm done with your goodbyes. Done with goodbyes. Done with your indifferent, I'm done with your feel. I'm done with your fake I'm done with your real I'm done with your hurtin, I'm done with your healin I'm done with you givin' I'm done with you stealin I'm done with beginning Cus I'm done being through I'm done with your quitting, Yeah I'm done with that too I'm done with not knowing Cus I know what to do So I'm not done with me, But I'm sure done with you I'm done with your lows and your highs Your no answers for why's, your hellos But most of all, I'm done with goodybes. Done with goodbyes. I'm done with your highs and your lows And your knows and don't knows, your hellos But most of all, I'm done with goodbyes. Done with goodbyes. Done with goodbyes. Done with goodbyes. Goodbye.

She walks through the door And order a drink Sits down by herself And tries not to think She pours down another As she gets up to leave Steps outside herself To get some relief But the anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her It's got nowhere to be. Sits back down questioning Doesn't know what to believe So she orders another To rejoice and to grieve. With shoulders hunched over She remembers to breathe And she orders another It's a gentle reprieve. Cus the anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her It won't let her be The anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her The anger hangs on her It's got nowhere to be She keeps going to let go She gets high only to go so low She can't accept what she don't know And not being angry means letting go. Her glass always empty Her heart full of grief If she orders another Won't get no relief. She knows it don't matter If she stays or she goes She's damned if she doesn't And she's damned if she does Cus the anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her It's got nowhere to be The anger just hangs on her The anger just hangs on her The anger hangs on her It won't let her be

Why couldn't you be Someone I could rely on Someone I could believe And decide on With my face in your neck I begged ya, “Please, Don't leave me!” Shoulda known I had it comin' When ya didn't come Retrieve me Instead you Left me lonely again. Oh, you Left me lonely again. Ooooohs... Why couldn't I be Someone you could rely on Someone you could believe And decide on With my face in your neck I begged ya, “Please, please Don't leave me!” Shoulda known I had it comin' When ya didn't come Retrive me Instead you Left me lonely again. Oh, you Left me lonely again. Instrumental bridge You were so sick of survivin' You wanted to live Or die tryin' With my face in your neck I begged ya, “Please, please Don't leave me!” Shoulda known I had it comin' When ya couldn't come Retrieve me Instead you Left me lonely again. Oh, you Left me lonely again.

You say you do But you don't You say you will But you won't You say you will But you won't Ya thought you could When you couldn't So ya said you would When you wouldn't Ya thought ya can But you can't Ya thought you could But you couldn't You say you will When you won't You say you do Then you don't You say you do Then you don't You thought you should But you shouldn't. You thought you could But you couldn't. Well it's that kinda thinkin's Got you leavin' Even before you go And it's that kinda thinkin's Got you drinkin' Sinkin' in that hole. Will you go? Maybe you will Or you won't. Outro: Or you won't Or you won't Will you go? Maybe you will Or you won't I--- I--- I--- I--- I wanted to know So many Maybes ago Did you go? So many So many Maybes ago I wanted to know So many Maybes ago

about

Nuclear Family Fantasy New York

Nuclear Family Fantasy's music is an exploration into the resulting impact of being raised with the illusion that the nuclear family is still the ideal. Their songs convey the struggles with addiction, frustration, and heartbreak that sometimes result from trying to survive in a world that still wants us to believe in the attainability of the American Dream. ... more
