"Wrecking ball" by Chris-Valen McPherson
2011-11-08 If I just didn’t sayAll those things that I said

And gone home

Because you’re still holding onto my spare key
And this never would’ve happened if I still had you

"Perfect ten" by Roland Raad
2011-11-08 You’re so pretty,But you’ve got no self-esteem.

That I’m eager to solve.
You are original,
You’ve got a sensitive soul.
