No Life 02:33
My friends are all out doing things around town My parents are gone, there's no one around People say I have no life, it's true You might say I have no life but who asked you I beep my girlfriend wait an hour or two She doesn't call back so what else is new People say I have no life, it's true You might say I have no life well who asked you My companion is loneliness By now I guess I should be used to this People say I have no life, well it's true You might say I have no life well who asked you I've got social menopause

Screw Driver 03:14
Hello what's this a spark of interest It seems she finally noticed me I'll be, she acknowledged my existence I guess I should be real happy Leave it to me to kill it, complete before it has begun Somewhere up there wills it that I not have anyone Hey look it's Brandi standing with her friends I'm sure that we will last a while Ha wrong again she's found another love And people ask why I don't smile But it's not unexpected as I drive out the lot I'm used to being rejected, funny all my friends are not Nobody cares I don't care about that Relieve yourself on my feelings Just remember one day you'll be like me Hope you're with one as understanding Every single girl has said they just want to be my friend Thanks but I think that I'll pass I got all of the friends I need

As I walked in the room I saw the party going on It started fine then I saw her and all my cool was gone The others just became a whirl of moving hazy shapes The only thing between us as confusion crossed my face I want her but I don't want all the trouble Experience tells me to let it by She looked at me and our eyes met then quickly turned away I move toward her across the room thinking of words to say For some reason nothing comes to mind as I'm standing there By that time she has walked away from me, I know not where Infatuation preys on the gullible I never seem to learn, I wonder why And so the party's over, I forgot it had begun I stood confused in my own world amidst the drunken fun She's gone for good and now I'll probably never see her again But some day I will meet my girl the question here is when

Moving On 02:34
Well I hear the word around is that you're thinking of Finding another one for you that will replace my love You've been wanting this guy for as far back as you can tell As far as I'm concerned the both of you can go to hell And now I see where we stand, on sinking land So go fulfill your fantasy and take all the time you want Just keep in mind that you've blown it and I'll be moving on Nights will still be nights and the sun still will rise at dawn The only thing that's changed is me and I'll be moving on And when you realize who had cared I won't be there yeah Cuz baby who am I to stand in the way of true lust Your pubescent mentality will turn your life to dust And in the end it will be me who gets the final laugh So go ahead it's too late now and we are in the past yeah
5.
I can't believe the luck I'm having Don't I deserve better than this It's true I just can't win for losing My fortune's trapped in an abyss You break our dates and I'm still there, you brush me off and you don't care I stick around and take it in, roll with your punches, let you win Sometimes I wonder if it's me that is the one that's wrong, I see I'm realizing now at my home that I'd be better off alone I really would like to believe you That you are truly that busy But these words seem just too familiar So don't expect a sale to me You break our dates and I'm still there, you brush me off and you don't care I stick around and take it in, roll with your punches, let you win Sometimes I wonder if it's me that is the one that's wrong, I see I'm realizing now at my home that I'd be better off alone Yeah better off alone, yeah better off alone

Moon 02:32
Met a girl who really turned me on Started thinking she could be the one Took her out and got to know her soon Walked together underneath the moon Sweet romantic night, moon is shining bright Silence fills the cold dark air No one else is there Sat at the lake and told her I love you She told me that she felt the same way too Passion rising as we shared a kiss Who could ever have expected this Sweet romantic night, moon is shining bright Silence fills the cold dark air No one else is there The moon exploded after we embraced Our date was finished like the human race The lack of gravitational forces Threw Earth into the sun, who expects this Cataclysmic night, moon is burning bright All life exterminated Everyone is dead Everyone is dead

Don't Stay 03:15
Well it's your move and I've been sitting here for days It's up to you to stick around or go away And just to let you know it's all the same to me I got a line waiting as far as I can see I've called your bluff about a thousand times a day So what's one more if it means that you'll go away Don't act like it's a surprise when these words I say The choice is yours and I am hoping you don't stay I never felt the way I have when you are here Except the times I puked from drinking too much beer Some poets call their loves a cool refreshing breeze You're like a dry heave making me gag on my knees I've called your bluff about a thousand times a day So what's one more if it means that you'll go away Don't act like it's a surprise when these words I say The choice is yours and I am hoping you don't stay You don't stay, you don't stay yeah You don't stay, you don't stay yeah

about

Charlie Brown Gone Mad was started in 2003 as a joke with the original intention of lampooning bad emo and punk bands and awful recording decisions. I put up a terrible website on Geocities and every few months I'd record and release songs with cringy lyrics, unsteady vocals and horrible production value. On some of them (cough, Better Off Alone, cough) I leaned into the bad way harder than others.

Here are those demos from the site right up to the point where, thanks to Myspace, the band actually got a tiny but enthusiastic fanbase in Arizona of all places and I decided to put a little more effort into the songs, enough that some that started off as CBGM songs ended up being integrated into my main act (Clock, Hannah, Don't Stay, the chorus of Breakpoint, others I can't remember right now.) But that's a whole other album.
