THere is actually only one song: STP has "creep" with those lyrics."Creep" is the seventh track off the album Core, the debut album by the band Stone Temple Pilots.

Creep is the seventh track of the album Core, the debut album by the band Stone Temple Pilots. Performed at a lumberingly slow tempo, the song features the memorable chorus, "I'm half the man I used to be." It was the third and final single off of the album.

The main issue derives from the main chorus of "I'm half the man I used to be", and many mislabel this as the title of the song. It has been attributed to the popular grunge band Nirvana [1], and Pearl Jam (who actually once covered the song in concert). Some of the more popular mislabels are as follows;Stone Temple Pilots- half the man I used to beStone Temple Pilots- half the manStone Temple Pilots- Bobby's Got a GunNirvana- half the man I used to beNirvana- CreepNirvana- Half and HalfPearl Jam- Creep...
