===2002 demo===
Come back baby
<poem>Come back, baby, come to me
Come to me
I still need a family
I would like a mistress fair
Who wears see-through underwear
 
And that's not enough
Still need more stuff
 
Video games I can't play
Compact discs I store away
Girls whose names I can't recall
Line them up; I want them all
 
And I'm going nuts
I like big butts
 
I don't need these boxes
I don't need this junk
I don't need my play space
???
I just want to chill out
Space to be alone
Why can't you hear me
This is my home
 
Chocolate donuts, tofu dogs
Ranch Doritos on cheese logs
I am in a downward spin
Hey there, sweet thing, come on in
 
'Cause I'm all alone
My three cellphones
 
I don't need these boxes
I don't need this junk
I don't need my play space
???
I just want to chill out
Space to be alone
Why can't you hear me
This is my home
 
All alone
My three cellphones
My ten girlfriends
My new Mercedes Benz
 
I don't need these boxes
I don't need this junk
I don't need my play space
???
I just want to chill out
Space to be alone
Why can't you hear me
This is my home
 
This is my home</poem>

Every time I think I found the key to happiness

Something else comes in my view and I just can't resist

I want everyone and everything for me (everything for me)
And I just can't resist
I want everyone and everything for me
