Crunchie! ats5! What are you playing in my ear? You got a fix of what it is I want to hear Coming through the frequencies And the airwaves You say I'm acting like a fool Hey man, back off, because you don't look so cool With your button down shirt, tie smack Man you're so whack Let the music play Let the good times roll We don't care what you say We're turning up the radio [Chorus 2] Turning, turning Got to get it louder Turning, turning Let me hear you shouting Turning, turning Get yourself together Turning, turning Waking up your neighbor Listen as I start my jam Tuning into the stations on the stereo Don't you dare touch that dial Because I got style (For miles and miles) Everybody clap your hands Grooving to the way I roll with my rock band You know we're gonna turn back time to the 80s Let the music play Let the mohawks grow We don't care what you say We're turning up the radio Turning, turning Got to get it louder Turning, turning Let me hear you shouting Turning, turning Get yourself together Turning, turning Waking up your neighbor It's the rock, It's the roll It's the pop, it's the soul It's the funk, the hip-hop Oh, DJ, don't you stop It's the hits, it's the flops Billie Jean, and She Bop It's the cream of the crop Oh, DJ, don't you stop Turn it all the way... Turning, turning, turning up the radio Turning, turning Got to get it louder Turning, turning Let me hear you shouting Turning, turning Get yourself together Turning, turning Waking up your neighbor

Photograph 02:21
If you want it (ooh, ooh) You can have it (ooh, ooh) But you gotta learn to reach up there and grab it (ooh, ooh) 'Cause everybody wants some love (oh baby) Shootin' from the stars above (oh baby) And though my heart would break, it's more than I can take I can never get enough If you need it (ooh, ooh) You should show it (ooh, ooh) 'Cause you might be so monastic that you blow it (ooh, ooh) 'Cause everybody wants some hope (oh baby) Something they can barely know (oh baby) And though my heart would break, it's more than I could take I can never let it go It's in the photograph It's in the photograph It's in the photograph of love 'Cause everybody wants a dream (oh baby) Something they can barely see (oh baby) And though my heart would break, it's more than I could take I could never let it be It's in the photograph It's in the photograph It's in the photograph of love If you blew it (ooh, ooh) Don't reject it (ooh, ooh) Just sit drawing up the plans and re-erect it Just sit drawing up the plans and re-erect it Just sit drawing up the plans and re-erect it

They say I need some Rogaine to put in my hair Working out at the gym to fit my underwear Oakley makes the shades to transform a tool You'd hate for the kids to think that you lost your cool I'ma do the things that I wanna do I ain't got a thing to prove to you I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans Excuse my manners if I make a scene I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like I'm finally dandy with the me inside One look in the mirror and I'm tickled pink I don't give a hoot about what you think! Everyone likes to dance to a happy song With a catchy chorus and beat so they can sing along Timbaland knows the way to reach the top of the chart Maybe if I work with him, I can perfect the art I'ma do the things that I wanna do I ain't got a thing to prove to you I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans Excuse my manners if I make a scene I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like I'm finally dandy with the me inside One look in the mirror and I'm tickled pink I don't give a hoot about what you think! No, I don't care! I'ma do the things that I wanna do I ain't got a thing to prove to you I'll eat my candy with the pork and beans Excuse my manners if I make a scene I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you like I'm finally dandy with the me inside One look in the mirror and I'm tickled pink I don't give a fuck about what you think!

Trampoline 02:47
I've never seen you before But I know what you're thinking You've got a knife in your back And your witches are sinking Trampoline You're on my mind I've never seen you before But I know what you're feeling You're running under the ground And you're hitting the ceiling Trampoline You're on my mind Pushing the stone up the hill and if it rolls back down Woah, Sisyphus, it rolls back down I've never seen you before But I know what you're thinking You've got a knife in your back And your witches are sinking Yes they're sinking Trampoline (Trampoline) You're on my mind

Summertime, I press rewind And go back to a simple place When I was just a little punk Daydreaming of my escape Listening to Aerosmith Later on, I will call my mom Now I'm pluggin' into a Marshall stack I can be anything I want I need some of that It's just what I need I need some of that We'll be riding our ten-speeds I need some of that Even if we blow up We're never gonna grow up This is where it's at I've been around, around the world And I've seen all kinds of hoods But this is mine, it's dear to me 'Cause here, I'm understood 'Cause I need some of that Don't ever leave me I need some of that There's nothing on TV I need some of that Even if we blow up We're never gonna grow up This is where it's at Even when the sun was fading I was in my hatchback raging Riding up and down this block 'Cause I owned this block I need some of that It's just what I need I need some of that We'll be riding our ten-speeds Even if we blow up We're never gonna grow up 'Cause this is where it's at I need some of that Shake it up, baby I need some of that Driving me crazy I need some of that Even if we blow up We're never gonna grow up 'Cause I need some of that I need some of that Someone to feed, someone to bleed Even if we blow up, we're never gonna grow up Cause I need some of that

Hawaii 03:45
You're so busy, you don't have the time To relax your body, let your soul unwind Let's take a breather and go lounge around In a place where the ocean is the only sound Hawaii, Hawaii Playin' in the sand Layin' in the sun Hawaii, Hawaii It's not that far away So join me in the fun Some bleak mornings you don't even eat You go through the day feelin' hungry and weak You're getting dark circles under your eyes Let me treat you, baby, to the sweet surprise of Hawaii, Hawaii Playin' in the sand Layin' in the sun Hawaii, Hawaii It's not that far away So join me in thе fun In Waikiki they got so much free time And when thеy're bored they just open their minds They fill the space with their own creations I wanna have those realizations So come with me, we'll ride the zip-line Put on our fins and have a good time It's not too chill, it's not too blazing It's even nice when it's precipitating It looks like everything has changed since you came around I don't need em, I don't need em, I don't need em anymore It looks like everything has changed since you came around

Hip hip When you're on a holiday You can't find the words to say All the things that come to you And I wanna feel it too On an island in the sun We'll be playing and having fun And it makes me feel so fine I can't control my brain Hip hip When you're on a golden sea You don't need no memory Just a place to call your own As we drift into the zone On an island in the sun We'll be playing and having fun And it makes me feel so fine I can't control my brain We'll run away together We'll spend some time forever We'll never feel bad anymore Hip hip Hip hip Hip hip On an island in the sun We'll be playing and having fun And it makes me feel so fine I can't control my brain We'll run away together We'll spend some time forever We'll never feel bad anymore Hip hip Weezer

Grungey girls and punk rock boys Can't be heard above the noise Awkward handshakes, bumps, and hugs, oh-oh It's not the way you thought it was I would rather hear you curse me out Than give me fake smiles and all that nervous laughter When you say what you hate Makes me feel kind of great You have authority Taxi drivers sell their weed My Ani DiFranco scream Gold high tops with no socks on Go ahead and move along I would rather hear you curse me out Than give me fake smiles and all that nervous laughter When you say what you hate Makes me feel kind of great You have authority I would rather see you flip me off Than give me fake smiles and all that nervous laughter When you say what you hate Makes me feel kind of great It's beautiful to me It's hard to be real With all the temptations And all the flying daggers It's hard to be true When honesty kills you Does anybody hear me? I'm breaking down, y'know Give me a chance to let you go It's hard to be true When honesty kills you Does anybody hear me? I would rather hear you curse me out Than give me fake smiles and all that nervous laughter When you say what you hate Makes me feel kind of great You have authority I would rather see you flip me off Than give me fake smiles and all that nervous laughter When you say what you hate Makes me feel kind of great It's beautiful to me

Go to Carlthorp Even if you're stupid Conjugate verbs 'till your cortex bleeds Do some service Maybe candy striping Things like that will round out your SAT's These are the rules of life And we must comply if we wanna be written up in history These are the rules of life And we must abide if we wanna be everything we're meant to be in life These are simply the rules of life Work at Berkshire Slowly move your way up Federal Ex don't come overnight for free Find a partner Someone to share your life with Someone to soothe you when you catch a dread disease These are the rules of life And we must comply if we wanna be written up in history These are the rules of life And we must abide if we wanna be everything we're meant to be in life These are simply the rules of life And then they'll fuck you Fuck you, yeah! It's just as simple as that Whoa-oh-oh... Show them what you got You little snot Give it a go These are the rules of life And we must comply if we wanna be written up in history These are the rules of life And we must abide if we wanna be everything we're meant to be These are the rules of life These are simply the rules of life

Keep me in the dark My heart shrivels when the light is shining Hitch and Dawkins bitch I switch and join those Kids in Satan’s Army Praise for the awakened one He truly saved my life But after all his truth is small And I love the lie Everybody needs salvation And if it doesn’t come we make some Some people can get by on nothing But I still need to know I’m something So how do we explain Yngwie Or Abba and don’t forget Max Martin Do I have to be Messi, And cross myself when I knock the cross in That’s all I really care about It’s kind of practical Excuse me while I light this scented candle Everybody needs salvation And if it doesn’t come we make some Some people can get by on nothing But I still need to know I’m something I’m ready to love you I’m ready to give my heart I’m ready to trust you Cause I’m ain’t afraid of the dark Everybody needs salvation And if it doesn’t come we make some Some people can get by on nothing But I still need to know I’m something

about

Anyone who knows me knows that I've been obsessed with Weezer. And it only has gotten more of an obsession when my buddy here, Cameron Colon, and I started talking about it together after finding out we both love Weezer. So it should've been no surprise to anyone that I would eventually make a cover album with Weezer. And so here it is! The Purple Album!

This started off as a Blue album tribute a while ago when "Songs for the Summer" was being written, but I had gotten lazy with it and revitalized it when Mint was being written. It then took me a year and a half to finish this at the time of writing this. :)

It is now 2021 and I am still not done with this album at the time of writing this (July 7th, 2021). I've even changed the tracklist and put in new songs because I am a masochist.

It is now 2022!!! Wooo!! I'm still not finished with this at the time of writing! (July 31st, 2022).

I know that TECHNICALLY the songs off the "Alone" collections aren't "Weezer" but shut uppp fuck you shut uppppp. I like them so I put them on here.

ELISIA SONG (she/her) (sheezer): Everything short of Cameron's vocals.

CAMERON COLON (he/him) (heezer): Vocals/Synths on "I Need Some of That"
