LYRICS:
------
I know that I can't take  
Many more steps toward your heart  
'Cause all that's waiting for me  

Is some dark regret 
That I can see  

Sha-na-na… 
Oo-wah… 
Sha-bop…  

Don’t you know that I’m not your ghost
That I’m not your chore?  

You the one who lost the love  
That I loved the most

Yikkity-dang-da-dong… 
All around here…  

I learned to live with you— 
Just half alive,  
Now you want all my organs 
To live inside of a jar

Who do you think you are?  
Chasing me and leaving deep scars—  
Collecting my body parts in a jar

Tearing my lungs apart!  

Sha-na-na-na
Sha-na-na-na
Jar of Body Parts!  
Sha-na-na-na
Sha-na-na-na

You smile like you bury me,  
Candy teeth with rusty nails

I sleep with knives 
Beneath my pillow
I keep your name in jail

You keep it in a jar—  
Little labels
Little lies

Yikkity-dang-da-dong… 
Labels, lies…  

You’re going to catch the flu  
From what I will do to you
So don’t you dare come back for me
Who do you think you see?  

Sha-bop… sha-na-na…  

I learned to live with you— 
Just half alive,  
Now you want all my organs 
To live inside of a jar

Who do you think you are?  
Chasing me and leaving deep scars—  
Collecting my body parts in a jar

Tearing my lungs apart!  

Sha-na-na-na
Sha-na-na-na
Yikkity-dang-da-dong
Oo-wah-oo!  
Sha-na-na-na
Sha-na-na-na

Yakety ding-dee-dong! 
Shoobop shoobop! 
Sha-na-na!  

Yakety ding-dee-dong! 
Shoobop shoobop! 
Sha-na-na!  

Yakety ding-dee-dong! 
Shoobop shoobop! 
Sha-na-na!  

Yakety ding-dee-dong! 
Shoobop shoobop! 
Sha-na-na!  

You took my pulse 
And pinned it on a shelf
My trembling framed in glass

I’ll hang your heart above the mantel
Polished like a looking glass

Sha-na-na
Yikkity-dang-da-dong 
Whoa-whoa-whoa

I learned to live with you— 
Just half alive
Now you want all my organs 
To live inside of a jar

Who do you think you are?  
Chasing me and leaving deep scars—  
Collecting my body parts in a jar
Tearing my lungs apart!  

Sha-na-na-na
Sha-na-na-na
Yikkity-dang-da-dong

Sha-na-na-na
Sha-na-na-na
Jar— of— Body— Parts

Who do you think you are? 
Who do you think you see?  
Sha-na-na… 
Sha-na-na… 
Oo-wah…

OAR "Shattered"

Pinch Me (Barenaked Ladies)

Never has the phrase “he shoots, he scores” been more applicable than when mentioning rabid hockey fan and chart-topping singer/songwriter John Ondrasik. The Los Angeles native, who goes by Five for Fighting (a five-minute penalty for on-the-ice fist-a-cuffs), burst on the scene some 15 years ago with his Grammy Award-nominated hit “Superman (It’s Not Easy),” and has been a mainstay on mainstream radio ever since. While he doesn’t wear tights and fight crime as his breakthrough track “Superman” suggests, his songs could bring any maniacal villain to their knees (and tears) with his poignantly sharp songs that cut deeper than a Ginsu knife.

Ondrasik signed his first deal in 1997 with "Message For Albert,” but it was his follow-up “American Town” that really took flight for Fighting.  The aforementioned “Superman (It’s Not Easy)” went Platinum (as did the album), was #1 on Adult Top 40, #2 on Hot AC, and in the Top 40 Top 10.  The song actually hit the airwaves, and reached #1 the same week his daughter Olivia was born. Not too shabby as Adam Sandler once said. Adding more fuel to the emotional fire, the mega-hit served as sort of an unofficial anthem following the 9.11 attacks on American soil. Naturally, he performed it at The Concert For New York City.

In his career, Ondrasik has sold over 2.5 million albums including 2004's “Battle for Everything,” which spawned the 2X platinum “100 Years,” which continues to melt hearts, provide all ages with an instant case of nostalgia.  Other hits have included “The Riddle,” "World," "Chances" and "What If." His music has been featured in 350 films, TV shows and advertisements ranging from the The Blind Side to Hawaii Five-O. He has also written tunes for everyone from Josh Groban to The Backstreet Boys. 

When not writing killer tunes, Ondrasik is putting pen to paper for his other passion: sports. The avid Stanley Cup Champion Los Angeles Kings fan has been a sports commentator for SI.com,  the Kings, and a guest on everything from Jim Rome to ESPN SportsCenter, the latter of which he became the first “band” to appear and perform.
“I recognize the immature shallowness of the adult sports fan obsession, but I've always had it. Lakers as a kid, UCLA, Kings etc...Many folks use music as their escape, I imagine sports as mine. Writing is a kick as I've always had a fantasy to be a sports reporter/writer,” he says gleefully.

As he explores the possibility of a Broadway show featuring his tunes, he’s currently on the road (not literally) performing songs as a quartet (Five for Fighting literally) and with symphonies around the country.  "The symphony and quartet shows have been fantastic,” he said. “I've had the honor of working with some world class arrangers in my career.  To present the more ambitious songs, as well as the popular tunes, in this format has refueled my passion for performing.”

...And making new music. Ondrasik's "What If" hit the Hot AC charts and was chosen by Richard Branson (sorry, Sir Richard Branson) as the soundtrack for his non-profit Virgin Unite.  And his most recent song "All for One" was penned for the 100th episode of Hawaii Five-O.  Ondrasik is currently working on the follow-up to his sixth album, Bookmarks.

Looking ahead while looking back, the one-man Fighting army, said, “I have been blessed to have loving and supportive parents, an amazing wife and partner, and two great kids. Family is crucial to any career, keeps the ups and downs, down and up.”
