Pom Pom Squad Lyrics
Again I never wanted things to be this way Never again will…
Cellophane Didn't I do it for you? Why don't I do it…
Cherry Blossom I was never so good at goodbyes I know you don't…
Crimson Clover Oh Now I don't hardly know her But, I think I could…
Crimson + Clover Oh Now I don't hardly know her But, I think I could…
Crying It hits me and it feels like a kiss They said…
Head Cheerleader You said open up your mouth and tell me what…
Heavy Heavy I wake up feeling empty Empty out the shit that's…
Honeysuckle Honey dripping from your soft lips Swallow me in your…
Last Christmas Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next…
Lux I've got a sinking suspicion It might be something in your…
Ow Is it worth crying at night If it sets my soul…
Popular Three important rules for breaking up Don't put off breaking…
Red with Love You tell me You need me I ask you why You kiss me…
This Couldn't Happen Again, this couldn′t happen again Again, this couldn't happe…
