Over the hills they came from the valley
Making innuendos about my lack of talent, oh well
Over the hills they came from the valley
Making innuendos about my lack of talent, oh well
They say that when I'm supposed to be singing
All I 'm really doing is yelling, oh well
To you I say
Break out or get out
Then they say that I can't sing
That I don't say a thing
That I make everything up, oh well
To you I say
Break out or get, just get out
Get out of here, say
Break out or get out, just get out
Get out of here, say
Out, just get out
Just get out
Get out of your mind
'Cause it's much too small
(4:53)
If you want to open the hole
Just put your head down and go
Step beside the piece of the circumstance
Got to wash away the taste of evidence
Wash it away (evidence)
I didn't feel a thing
It didn't mean a thing
Look in the eye and testify:
I didn't feel a thing
Anything you say, we know you're guilty
Hands above your head, you won't even feel me
You won't feel me (evidence)
Know it sounds funny but I just can't stand the pain
Girl I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl you know I've done all I can
You see I begged, stole and I borrowed
Yeah
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning
I wanna be high
Soo high
I wanna be free to know the things I do are right
I wanna be free
Just me
Oh baby
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning
It would be wrong to ask you why
Because I know what goes inside
Is only half of what comes out
Isn't that what it's about ?
To remind us we're alive
To remind us we're not blind
In that big, black hole
Comfortable
Digging the grave, I got it made
Let something in, or throw something out ?
You left the door open wide
I know you have a reason why
That knot is better left untied
I just went and undid mine
It takes some time
And the shadows so big
It takes the sun out of the day
And the feeling goes away
If you close the door
I want them to know it's me
It's on my head
I'll point the finger at me
It's on my head
Give it all to you, then I'll be closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
I'll see you
I will let you shout no more
It's on my head (It's on my head)
I'll pick you up from the floor
It's on my head (It's on my head)
I'll let you even the score
It's on my head (It's on my head)
Give it all to you, then I'll be closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the eyes of the mountain
I'll see you
Give the same to me, then I'll be closer, closer
Give the same to me, then I'll be closer, closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the eyes of the mountain
Give the same to me, then I'll be closer, closer
Give the same to me, then I'll be closer, closer
SHE LOVES ME NOT
Why hold on?
Your hands are getting sore
You must be scared of something
From the time before, well...
We're here again
How long, who knows?
It's not your right to tell me
Where this trip will go
Pull away
You're dying today
You could enjoy it
If you could take your feelings with you
But put your mind on me
And suck my energy
And see the speed gets higher
I see you hold on tighter....
But just fatigue
Is all your face will show
It's weary from the stress
Getting delirious
"I didn't want this race
We can"t keep up this pace"
We don't want to get well
We want to go to hell
We want an urban dream
The fucking urban scream
"This time was mine to borrow
I'll pay for it tomorrow"
You'll pay for it today
And as we drive away
I'll make my pleasure greater
Push the accelerator
(and down we go)
Well, just follow your heart
Man oh man
Try and see, if you can
Ha Ha
Jungle sounds great
Lots of scary noise
Don't deter us from our journey onward
Hey man, let your spirit go
To the full extent of the meaning
He said, "And follow me to the deepest part of the jungle.
Where it is always dark and wet and warm
To the sacred part."
Well, just follow your heart
Man oh man
Try and see, if you can
Ha Ha
Jungle sounds great
Lots of scary noises
Don't deter us from our journey onward
We pushed and followed
Only our deepest, hidden senses, senses
And exposed to the elements
That lie within
A glow in her eye
As he waved goodbye
That's where it all began
She was a loving girl
He was a caring guy
Together they had plans
They were married and had a baby
His name was Johnnie
Wait a minute, that's me
Why am I only three years old again
Spinning and spinning and spinning
There was no gleam in your eye
When you passed us by
In the parade this time
You had nothing to say
And you're always on your way somewhere
But today you just stood still
You were a quiet kind of person
Who asked for nothing and got just that
So they sent you away to kill for your country
Could you blame him?
Could you blame them?
No. And in the end
When we meet again we're friends
Will we ever learn that we are always God's children
And gods never made moral decisions
They made love
Love...it's a beginning
A justifiable means to an end
And happiness, that triumphant feeling
Only comes from within
But ...you'll...never make the grade
No you'll never, ever reach that plateau
You're down below
And it's where your soul will forever glow
But it's not that ray of sunshine that feels so warm
It's just that bottomless inferno
You're in the depths of hell
And I think that's swell
And I hope you get well
Well done, fried in and out
Burned to a crisp, if that's what I wish
I didn't write the rules
I just follow them to a tee
Cause that's me, I'm evil
I'm hateful, I'm sinful, forgetful, mistrustful
I'm diseased and contageous
I'm suicide, homicide, genocide, pesticide
I'm a human bomb
I'll kill anyone
And so are you, So don't be coy
Cause you too can destroy me like a toy
Not like Mark Bowen
He never done nothin' to no one
... That didn't deserve it.
One day, you're thinkin' that maybe you're feelin' better
And you're probably an okay person, if you only had a job
Through the hollow tombs can see them
Through their mouths, I can hear them prayin' for pain
But it's only a game
Listen man, I know
That things are really rough
And everybody gets you
And life is really tough
But I know
That deep down inside
There's a feelin' that rides
All the way to the end
Thursday you sit in your room with the lights turned out
And you don't answer the door
Friday morning looks sunny and bright
Like it's goin' to be a good day
And it would be if only you had a job
Time is on your side, you're young
Has it been so long?
Do you think we know?
Do you think we care?
Die...for the here and now
Do you remember why?
Do you remember how?
Face .... out
Stick your chest .... out
Stomach .... in
Thats right
Do you really know
Where the harems go
In the desert snow? Hail,
An oasis dream doesn't really seem
To mean a thing when you're out .... cold
So, hands .... up
Put your guards .... up
Feet .... down
Up .... down
Forward .... march
Left .... right
Cold .... cold
I feel cold
Come here, my love
I'll tell you a secret
Come closer, now
I want you to believe it
I'll tell you all the things
You want to hear
Don't worry, baby
There's nothing to fear
Hey, little girl
Would you like some candy?
Look into my eyes
I've seen it all
Hand in hand
Together we fall
We'll sing and dance
And we'll find romance
And we'll stroll to the edge of the world
Come sit right down
Lay your head on my shoulder
It's not the point
That I'm forty years older
You can trust me
I'm no criminal
But I'd kill my mother
To be with you
We'll sing and dance
And we'll find romance
And we'll stroll to the edge of the world
Give me a smile
Let me see those pearlies
I'll do anything
(3:41)
It's cold and it's
Smooth and it's
A hard shade of white
And everybody needs to lick the surface clean
But it never tastes better
White blooms to white and freezes white again
Close it before something crawls in
Commit it, leave it, get away - we always
Drop our good side
Being good gets you stuff
Being stuff gets you good
Good stuf gets you being
And wheelin' and dealin' and squealin'
Shit lives forever
They have no legs, but chase us anyway
Wipe the shadow of your best friend
Gave birth to something we don't want to be
We drop our good side
You can't kill it
Eat is just as deep as you can fuck it
So cough it up or go down
And there's only one thing that separates
A man...
Shit lives forever
We'll retire with a turd on our lips
Under a pair of knowing eyes
I'm gonna take a few down with me
And drop my good side
You can't kill it
Take it from our drummer, "Puff"
Being good it gets you stuff
(4:01)
They all know me by my car
They all know I'm gone, but not how far
I'm heading straight down 101
I'm going to go and get me some
My lips are movin' but there's no sound
Someday somebody's gonna get run down
Eô non posso dirigir
E agora a pares
Neô dedu indehado
No neô naris
My lips anr movin' but there's no sound
Someday somebody's gonna get run down

Return to my own vomit like a dog
Rhymes and giggles muffle the dialogue
Carve my initials in a tree, I will never leave
Maybe one day I'll be royalty
Kingdom
Kindergarten
Born late
Will I graduate?
Drinking fountains are shorter than they used to be
The swings on the playground don't even fit me anymore
Folklore: Nobody's supposed to believe in the next grade
WRITE IT A HUNDRED TIMES
Kingdom
Kindergarten
Waiting
Bell's not ringing
Held back again
Everything got quiet suddenly ; no dolby
And the theatre is empty
Film is flapping on the side of the projector
The reel is over
Banished with my sticky shoes and stinging eyes
I'M WALKING OUTSIDE
Kingdom
Kindergarten
Born late
Will I graduate?
Held back again

Smiles
Bruises
Smiles
Bruises
Bars in the womb
I hide the dirty minutes under my dirty mattress and they are making me itch
My time
Is split milk
My skin is a layer of soot
I'm spending my days scrubbing
I'm trying so hard to act like nothing happened (no one left to blame)
I'm trying so hard to find that fresh, clean smell (no one left to blame)
Smiles
Bruises
Smiles
Bruises
Bars in the womb
I hide the dirty minutes under my dirty mattress and they are making me itch
My time
Is split milk
Cruel words sleep above me
Mounting and teasing
I AM WHAT I'VE DONE
I AM WHAT I'VE DONE
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Sorry
Sorry
Go on and wring my neck
Like when a rag gets wet
A little discipline
For my pet genius
My head is like lettuce
Go on dig your thumbs in
I cannot stop giving
I'm thirty-something
Sense of security
Like pockets jingling
Midlife crisis
Suck ingenuity
Down through the family tree
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleedin' enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...
What an inheritance
The salt and the kleenex
Morbid self attention
Bending my pinky back
A little discipline
A donor by habit
A little discipline
Rent an opinion
Sense of security
Holding blunt instrument
I'm a perfectionist
And perfect is a skinned knee
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleedin' enough for two
The crowd roars
It's deep and so unhealthy
The rest you know
I'll feel the hands that felt me
Cold hands
Your hands
Cover my mouth
While I'm staring into bright lights
APPLAUSE
The crowd roars
The rest you know
Ten lovers violating
Cured
Discharged
Reach back inside
Knuckle white
Ruffle white
The crowd roars
They ruined and repaired me
The rest you know
The hands removed the bad thing
Sink the eight ball
Buy the lady a drink
And nobody knows my name
Bodies float up
From the bottom of the river
Like bubbles in fine champagne
He's the one, no doubt
Walkin' on a tightrope
He's the one, no doubt
Got a gash on my head
And a grin on my face
And a shadow called danger
Hidin' in the sheets
And on the streets
In the heart of every stranger
Here he comes, look out
Teach the world a lesson
Here he comes, look out
Sweat on the brow
And a tap on the phone
And lives are on the line
Pick up the briefcase
On a high speed chase
Breathin' by the roll
of the dice
Reachin' up to the top
We're dependin' on you
Reachin' up to the top
"In regards to
My usage of the drug...
it modified my personality
to the extent that I was
highly irritable"
"I was like a crack Hitler"
Keep up the fight
And in the wink of an eye
Never give up
Ooo..ahh..
ALMOST, sweet talk, CAFFEINE
Make contact
Up to my neck
I confess in quicksand
"But it's so easy for you"
"There's always one thing"
"Do you have something to tell me?"
"Say something"
"Anything"
"I'm warning you"
"I'm warning you"
"I'm fucking you"
"I'm warning you"
"Relax"
"It's just a phase"
"You'll grow out of it"
Believe anything anyone ever tells you
It's not funny any more
It's thing you hate the most
The thing you hate the most
I started this
It's all for me
What's yours is mine and mine is mine
That's plain to see
So give it up
I've got to have
I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW
Be aggressive
B-e aggresive
B-e-a-g-g-r-e-s-s-i-v-e-
What someone else
Would leave behind
And spit it out, let's go to waste
I claim as mine
You're my flovor of the week
I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW
Tall and reckless
Ugly seed
Reach down my throat
You filthy bird
That's all I need
This empty pit
I've got to feed
To prove I'm fit
A healthy man
I've got to be
Malnutrition, my submission
You're the master
And I take it on my knees
Ejaculation
Tribulation
I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW
Be aggressive
B-e aggresive
B-e-a-g-g-r-e-s-s-i-v-e-

A hierarchy
Spread out on the nightstand
The spirit of team
Salvation is another chance
A sore loser
Yelling with my mouth shut
A cracking portrait
The fondling of trophies
The null of losing
Can you afford that luxury?
A sore winner
But I'll just keep my mouth shut
It shouldn't bother me
But it does
The small victories
The cankers and medallions
The little nothings
They keep me thinking that someday
I might beat you
But I'll just keep my mouth shut
It shouldn't bother me
But it does
IF I SPEAK AT ONE CONSTANT VOLUME AT ONE CONSTANT PITCH
AT ONE CONSTANT RHYTHM RIGHT INTO YOUR EAR, YOU STILL WON'T HEAR
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
What's it to you?
Let's make it new
Let's make it die, make it die
There's nothing wrong
It's lived to long
And the plesure is yours and mine
You conceived me now you wanna kill me
It won't be easy, hey I wanna be me
You took me with you, now I'm gonna kill you
I want my mom!!!
What's it to you?
What's it to you?
Cutting through you
It's still alive, still alive
This thing between us
????
And it's chewing from the inside
I'm here alone on the telephone line
I'm right where you want me to be
And I'll wait alone and never ask why
I'll be where you want me to be
And I know...
I've been here before and I know your kind
You're right where I want you to be
Now I'll say what I think
I'll never be what you want me to be
(Just to be who I am)
What do you want me to be?
You'll be on your knees
Tell me
I'm watching you
I'm watching
You shall weep no more
Your last breath of air
These walls won't keep them out
They'll keep you in, but who
Who's going to protect you?
Who? Who? Who?
Who? Who?
In every dark land
In every flower bed
In every marriage bed
I'll be with you
I'll be with you
I'll be with you
I'll be with you
I'll be with you
I'm watching you
I'm watching you
I'm watching you
(Hudson, Patton, Bordin, Gould, Bottum)
You squirt out red and turn so yellow
And then you made me kill my own
I'm not afraid
(coming, coming)
But I'm afraid
Blood in your eyes again
Bravery, the face of man
Blood on your mind again
Chivalry, the face of man
Blood in your lies again
Enemy, the face of man
Blood in your eyes, again
Is this the only path of glory?
If so then I won't go alone
Follow the trail
(running) Follow the trail
I'm not afraid
But I'm afraid
(Patton)
My box is full
And my mouth is full
And my life is full
And now my memory's full
In how many ways and words
Can you say nothing
Millions of ways and words
To say nothing
What'd I say? I'm empty.
I bought the thing
I taught the thing
And I fought the thing
They said it's normal
But they're keeping me dumb and hot
You're missing something
Keeping me dumb and hot
You must be missing something
Keeping me dumb and hot
What'd I say? I'm empty.
And I'm sending it back to you
(Hudson, Patton, Bordin, Gould)
You tied the knot
A legend is what you bought
I give you cold water and you
Swear it was wine
You bought time
If you can fool yourself, then why not them?
Just keep on passing it mouth to mouth to mouth
I can dress up the dead man
But I can't bring him back to life
You tied the knot
Peeled your skin off, leaving a bundle of nerves
I give you a wet noodle, you swear that it was my tongue
A sharp one
Instead of that same old mouth to mouth to mouth to mouth
I can dress up the dead man
But I can't bring him back to life
The way you're holding me
I'm gonna blow up in your face
You know the way
You gotta light up and let go
(I won't, I won't, I won't)
You'd better let go
Let go
You better let go
You wanted flames
But now your tears won't put out the blaze
Before you run away
Know that I cannot let go
(I won't, I won't, I won't)
You'd better let go
Let go
You'd better leg go
???
???
???
???
The way you're holding me
I'm gonna blow up in your face
You know the way
You gotta light up and let go
Back and forth, I sway with the wind
Resolution slips away again
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark
Sometimes I think I'm blind
Or I may be just paralyzed
Because the plot thickens every day
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away
But I know, there's a picture beneath
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens....
Because I'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together
Layin' face down on the ground
My fingers in my ears to block the sound
My eyes shut tight to avoid the sight
Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight
Droplets of "yes" and "no"
In an ocean of "maybe"
From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline
From the top, another downhill slope of mine
But I know, the equilibrium's there
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens
Because I'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces

Glory Box
I'm so tired of playing,
Playing with this bow and arrow,
Gonna give my heart away,
Leave it to the other girls to play.
For I've been a tempteress too long,
CHORUS:
Oh yeah,
Give me a reason to love you,
Give me a reason to be a women,
I just want to be a woman
From this time unchained,
We're all looking at a different picture,
Through this new frame of mind,
A thousand flowers could bloom,
Move over and give us some room
CHORUS
So don't you stop being a man,
Just take a little look from outside when you can,
Sow a little tenderness,
No matter if you cry
CHORUS
{Its all I want to be, a woman},
So I just want to be a woman,
For this is the beginning of forever and ever,
Its time to move over now,
{So I want to be}
We were so happy.
Things worked out better than we had planned.
We were like ink on paper. Numbers on a calculator Knew arithmetic so well.
Working overtime, completing what was assigned. We had to multiply ourselves.
A bouncing little baby. A Shiny copper penny.
And he spent himself; would not listen to us. But when he lost his appetite, he lost his weight in friends.
He became a fat nickle so fast.
Then came puberty, exponentially. Soon our boy became a million.
People loved him so, and helped him to grow. Everyone knew the thing that was best. Of course, he must invest.
One penny won't do. No.(4X)
And he made us proud. He made us rich. But how were we to know; he's counterfeit.
Can you feel it ,see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it 'cause it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference 'cause it knocks you off your feet
You want it all but you can't have it
It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magit, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
What is it?
It's it
The words are so familiar-
All the same greats, the same mistakes
It doesn't have to be like this.
If you don't make a friend, now
One might make you-
So learn
The gentle art of making enemies
Don't look so surprised
Happy birthday...Fucker
Blow that candle out,
We're gonnaa kick you
[Don't say you're not because you are]
[Don't say you're not because you are]
[History tells us that you are]
[History tells us that you are]
All you need is just one more excuse
You put up one hell of a fight
I wanna hear your very best excuse
Never felt this much alive
Your day has finally come -
So wear the hat and do the dance
And let the suit keep wearing you.
This year you'll sit and take it
And you will like it -
It's the gentle art of making enemies
I deserve a reward
Cuz I'm the best fuck that you ever had
And if I tighten up my hole -
You may never see the light again
[There's always an easy way out]
[There's always an easy way out]
[You need something wet in your mouth]
[You need something wet in your mouth]
Never felt this much alive
STAR A.D.
It's over today
The heat is gone
Time is gone
F for fake
I feel no wrong
Hide no wrong
I love this place
The lights....
Under this face
So dry....
Only way to change
Give yourself away
Don't be ashamed
Next in line; close one eye
Just walk by
In these days
I'm breathing stone, crying alone
I'll win this race
I'll leave alone, arrive alone
Love this place, the lights...
Under this face, so dry...
Stripped to the bone
I did no wrong
Truth is my name
(5:38)
(Instrumental)
(3:49)
Looking down into the water
It's hard to make out your face
If our love is drowning, then why
Do I feel so out of place?
Bubbling up to the surface
Are you getting a breath of fresh air?
Forever longing to make you mine
But I can't escape your stare...
Liquid seeps into your lungs
But your eyes look so serene
It's wonderful how the surface ripples
But you're perfect, and I cannot breathe
Forever longing to make you mine
But I can't escape your stare...
Hold me closer, keep me near
My underwater love
Hold me closer, keep me near
I'll never get enough
Touch me from below
I'll never let you go
(3:41)
Awakened by the sun light
Victimized by last night
Memories flashin' through my head
Was I just born or am I dead?
Yesterday's forgotten, the morning after
I can taste you, I can hear your laughter
Fading in the distance
Recollections drifting
Bloodstains on my tattered clothes
Each minute the fear grows
If I could just lay down to rest
I'm tired of searching for myself
If I am dead, how can I feel such love?
If I am dead, why am I dreaming?
If I am dead, where do I go from here?
If I am dead, why does this pain feel so good?
Is this my blood dried upon my face?
Or is it the love of someone else?
It tastes so sweet, just like you used to
So rescue me my love, splice us together
I remember loving you so much
But where are you and where's your fatal touch?
When I closed my eyes, was it my siesta?
Did I encounter a darkness stronger than sleep?
I am thirsty for my sleep
(2:25)
Surprise! you're dead!
Ha ha! open your eyes
See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it
When you were alive and when you were in love
And when I took it from you!
It's not over yet
You don't remember?
I won't let you forget
The hatred I bestowed
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
From my teeth and my tongue
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
Now you are mine
I'll keep killing you until the end of time
Surprise! you're dead!
Guess what?
It never ends...
The pain, the torment and torture, profanity
Nausea, suffering, perversion, calamity
You can't get away
Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
You splash me with beauty and pull me down
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
Obsession rules me-I'm yours from the start
I know you see me-Our eyes interlock
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...
Sifting to the bottom, every day for two
All energy funnels, all becomes you
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And it hurts inside
One minute here and one minute there
You're everything
That's why I cling to you
When I emerge
My thoughts converge to you
To you
The world is so small
Compared to you
And everybody's wrong
Compared to you
To you
I begin to see through your eyes
All the former mysteries are no surprise
So now, you listen
Cuz I'm omniscient
Hey look at me lady
I'm just a little baby
You're lucky to have me
I'm cute and sweet as candy
As charming as a fable
I'm innocent and disabled
So hug me and kiss me
Then wipe my butt and piss me
I hope you never leave
Cuz who would hear me scream?
Nobody understands
Except the toys in my hands
So now you listen
Cuz I'm omniscient
Hey look at me lady
I'm just a little baby
If I smile, then you smile
Then I'll get mad for awhile
I melt in your mouth
And in your hands whenever I can
But I really do nothing
Except kickin' and fussin'
I like to make a mess
I laugh at your distress
I sit all day in my crib
Absorbing all you give
I'm helpless
I'm flawless
I'm a machine
Give me, I need my toys...
Keep me hot
Keep me strong
Keep me everlong
So now you listen
[Instrumental]
Tears fall....They scarred your innocent teens.
Love's fool....The company you envy.
Leaves fall....The seasons pass you by.
And you think, that maybe you can fly.
Serious fool....Relate your mind to a girl.
Crowds form....But think, smiling, of his peril.
Beautiful....The pavement isn't there.
But whats the last thing that goes through your head?
You take the elevator to the top.
The next thing you know,
There you are standing on the edge.
And all the flashing lights and futile cries,
Their left with you now.
Just close your eyes and take that final step.
Wasteful....They dampen your will to live.
Dice fall....Release pleasure that you give.
You fall....And take the whole world with you.
And will you even bother to look down?
You take the elevator to the top.
The next thing you know,
There you are standing on the edge.
The victors there to turn you inside out.
So he can hide me,
Before you find out what's inside your head!
(GUITAR SOLO)
You take the elevator to the top.
The next thing you know,
There you are standing on the edge.
Whats left is left and turns you inside out.
So it can hide me,
Before you find out what's inside your head.
And all the flashing lights and futile cries
Their left with you now.
Just close your eyes and take that final step.
Just close your eyes and take that final step.......
(2:37)
A piece of mail
A letter head
A piece of hair
From a human head
They're sayin' to me
"I should've killed it"
"I should've killed it"
"I should've killed it before"
You're right, you're right
"Kill the body and the head will die"
They're laughin' at me
"I should've learned it"
"I should've learned it"
"I should've learned it before"
- What a day, what a day
If you can look it in the face
And hold your vomit
A wet sneeze and a "no left turn"
A row teeth and an encouraging word
Beneath a mile of skin
"I should've noticed it"
"I should've noticed it"
"I should've noticed it before"
What a day
What a day
What a day
Don't you touch it
(3:06)
You did one thing wrong
You woke up.
It looked better before
More - more
And the stomach turns...
Say nothing without wasting a word
I know exactly what you meant
I know how piggy feels
He starves without missing a meal
Look in the mirror...
Don't look at me -
I'm ugly in the morning
When the headache is gone,
The sun is not.
Forgot to turn the alarm
On - on
Doesn't matter how much you think
Or the number of hairs in the sink
I did it to myself again
I know how piggy feels
He starves without missing a meal
It's getting clearer...
Don't look at me -
I'm ugly in the morning
(4:27)
Where it grows on trees
But never blooms
Where it hurts the least for whoever
Saw it first
First to go and the last to know
Lasts longer than a lifetime
Takes the least amount of effort
Feels better than a bargain
Just to know it's there
Can't you see
There's only one me
And that me is me
I know where but I cannot share
You'll call me - I'll stand in line till then
I'll be waiting
Can't you see
All circuits are busy
Please try back again
(3:28)
The words are so familiar -
all the same greats, the same mistakes
It doesn't have to be like this.
If you don't make a friend, now
One might make you -
So learn
The gentle art of making enemies
Don't look so surprised
Happy birthday...Fucker
Blow that candle out,
We're gonna kick you
(Don't say you're not because you are)
(Don't say you're not because you are)
(History tells us that you are)
(History tells us that you are)
All you need is just one more excuse
You put up one hell of a fight
I wanna hear your very best excuse
Never felt this much alive
Your day has finally come -
So wear the hat and do the dance
And let the suit keep wearing you.
This year you'll sit and take it
And you will like it -
It's the gentle art of making enemies
I deserve a reward
Cuz I'm the best fuck that you ever had
And if I tighten up my hole -
You may never see the light again
(There's always an easy way out)
(There's always an easy way out)
(You need something wet in your mouth)
(You need something wet in your mouth)
Never felt this much alive
(4:59)
I can wait to love in heaven
I can wait for you
Far away, I'll treat you better
Better than down here
Cuz I done wrong
And I'm a little afraid
I ain't too strong
And this ain't easy to say:
Take this bottle
Take this bottle
And just walk away - the both of you
And let me feel the pain - I've done to you
I can hope we'll be together
With a better roof over our heads
I can hope the stormy weather
It passes on - it passes on -
But I've hoped too long
Hoped for me to change
That hope is gone
So listen to what I say:
Take this bottle
(3:22)
Star A.D.
See tomorrow dreamin'
You don't need your freeom
Star A.D.
A little joke that's understood
All over the world
A little joke that's understood
It's all over and over and over and over
And dying is dry -
Like a fact of history
And when you die, you'll become something worse
Than dead -
You'll become
A legend
We are forever
(4:28)
All of that thick time without you
Has made me so thick and drunk
"and it's okay to laugh about it"
I said, "it's okay to laugh about it"
Runnin' twice as fast to stay in the same place
Don't catch my breath until the end of the day
And I'd rather be shot in the face
Than hear what you're going to say
One day the wind will come up
And you'll come up empty again
- And who'll be laughing then ? -
You'll come up empty again
No reason - no explanation - so play the violins
It's always funny until someone gets hurt...
And then it's just hilarious !
You beat me every time you blink
If only I did not have to think
Think about you crackin' a smile
Think about you all the while
On the ricochet - it's going to hit you
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
You can laugh at me - when it misses you
It is not a good day, if you are not looking good
This is the best party that I've ever been to
Today I asked for a God to pour some wine in my eyes
Today I asked for someone to shake some salt on my life
Look !
Everything's spinning
(we're on the ground)
Never cheer before you know who's winning
(don't make a sound)
Sniff the glass and let it roll around on you tongue
Let me introduce you to someone before the party is done
Someone to look to in need or in want or in war
If you give hime everything, he may give you even more
This is the best party I've ever been to
(5:35)
Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
A star is out
I reach for one to sparkle in my hand
A star is out
I will not touch you, I am just a man
Sky is clear tonight
Sky is clear tomorrow
- And every night I shut my eyes
So I don't have to see the light
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy sky
"Man was born to love -
Though often he has sought
Like Icarus, to fly too high.
And far too lonely than he ought
To kiss the sum of east and west
And hold the world at his behest -
To hold the terrible power
To whom only gods are blessed -
But me, I am just a man"
- And every night I shut my eyes
So I don't have to see the light
Shining so bright
I'll dream about a cloudy sky, a cloudy sky
And every night I shut my eyes
But now I've got them open wide
You've fallen into my hands
And now you're burning me
You're burning me
(2:17)
What if there's no more fun to have ?
And all I've got is what I had
What if I have forgotten how ?
Cut my losses and get out now
Get out right now
There's something stronger than me
There's something I don't want to see
A new thing growing in me
It is the hardest thing to do
To watch it grow on top of you
And see you're just like everyone
No fun
(5:52)
"And after all the feelings go, I see I still love you so,
I just thought I'd let you know now that everything's okay,
And you are on your way back, back to where you came,"
She said with pain in her heart, it was there from the start.
Now I know why everything turns grey, but it's our own world we paint
And I want the brightest, I want flourescence every day and night
For the rest of my life, open your eyes, won't you?
Can't you see you're so beautiful to me?
Don't look back as a matter of fact there's
A ten foot Jack wants to break your back
You stole his girl, you wrecked his world
Now it's your your head that he's gonna twirl
He won't think once, he won't think twice
Cause he knows just what he's gonna do tonight
He will commit a crime, a crime of love
And he won't be happy till he sees your blood
Looking back on when you left me
Standing in the rain
Don't look back as a matter of fact there's
A son of a bitch and he's digging a ditch
For you my friend, my lucky one
So grab your things it's time to run to the other side
Where love takes pride, and your souls
The only thing that stays alive
Ma maooba goo goo ga ga
Hey! Quit talkin that terminal jive!
Looking back on when I left you...
Crying in pain
Don't look back...[1st verse]
Looking back on when you left me
Standing in the rain, in-credible pain
I understand. You have to be your own person. And that's ok with me.
Hurts, Hurts, Hurts, Like a like a motherfucher
Love. it hurts. it kills. Like a sonofabitch.
That feeling. It gets me. Down inside. Deep down there
No further. Keep going. Oh man that's right out my system
(2:51)
She looked at me and did the bosa nova
I smiled at her and then just walked away
then the lights came on and it was over
to my surprise, she wasn't a girl at all
so I packed it up and took to a rock show...
where you can feel the pulse getting stronger
& you can only hear the beat for so long
I asked if there was any way to stop it
No, he said, just smile and act as if...
you worship the very ground on which they walk on...
no way
a temporary absence of gesture
a hidden meaning known to everyone
a slight misconception of leizure
don't see how that could hurt anyone...I know...but
spirit, excellence, further down the road,
these are the tools you'll need further down the road.
so lets pack it up and take it somewhere special...
from a quintessential, existential nightmare
(3:11)
Don't put that thing too close to my head
It took this long just to get ahead, he says
He knows for sure, but that he can't decide
Between his decency and this matter of pride
So he's growing up on time, he's growing up in the middle...
And it burns, and it burns, the sun burns
Oh, now I can really feel it. How could you ever stand it?
We've got the same ideas, we got the same old fears;
Different colors sometimes, but hey, who cares?
It's just years that shears our lives apart, like the
Time you tried to teach your nephew to fart, he couldn't do it. PUSH!
So he's growing up on time, I'm growing up in the middle...
Oh, now I can really feel it. How could you ever stand it?
I'm not the kind of person who would say it, if it wasn't the truth
And then you go and tell a friend that her heart's on fire
And it has no meaning.
Now and only now I know the difference when you tell me
There is no difference.
So she's growing up on time, she's growing up in the middle...
Now's the time to evaluate between the love you give
And the love that you take.
"It's not a matter of opinion, when it comes down to it,
It's just a difference of opinion, that much I can take."
So I'm growing up on time, I'm growing up in the middle...
And it burns
(1:32)
From the day I was born, I took the bull by the horns, and gave you
plenty to scorn, well right on! Then you said in a song that life was
gettin real tough, but hey I think that you're bluffing, what of it?
Introduce yourself (right on!)
Now two decades gone by and I know that's a long time, para tiempo means
nada nunca. Cause I'm still the same asshole and I still wet my pants
every time that I see your face (who are you?)
Introduce yourself (right on!)
Hey Mr. Biggs, Hey Mr. Bestall, Hey Mr. Warner what's up?
Hey Mr. Enigma, Hey Mr. Bigtime, Hey Mr. Epic, What's going on?
Introduce yourself (right on!)
(4:15)
Styling, you know you are styling
So turn to the mirror and blow yourself a kiss
It goes just like this
You've done it a thousand times
It's as easy as drinking wine, only now it's blood.
Here it come again
(treating you so kind)
Till it comes again
(leaving you no mind)
Your feelings, they flow without reason
So look to the stars above and
Blow it all away.
I come without warning
Some call me morning,
I wipe all your tears away, the evil ones I kill
Here it comes again
(treating you so kind)
Till it comes again
(leaving you no mind)
Taking the form of pain this time
It never treats you unkind
Your followers, lead them blind
And suck away their lives
Cause yours depends on it
Here it comes again
Chasing the night away
(3:00)
There's nothing I'd like more than to let you in
But now you're on the other side and there's no way...
To feel your breath of life upon my face
Cause with the state you're in there wouldn't be a trace
No I wake up every night with this emptiness inside
Hasn't been the same since you left without a trace
Quit the human race, did you? Camina con la muerto?
(4:35)
Candle light, it burns in every hole of your eyes
It's beautiful, how much you'll never realize
So hush my love, there's something I'm to tell you now
Your time has come, around again my sleepless one
Your friend was young, hung and plastered
He never knew his own disaster
I think it's good, in fact it was faster
Cause it was you that he was after
Hold me now, as if you'll never let me go
Unhand me now, as if you've always known my name
His love was king, his love was master
He needed more, he needed always
He searched in vein for love and shelter
In every soul, in every hallway
So you thought she'd be sweeter than your girlfriend Peter
Well give it a second chance cause you've yet to meet her
We got the same ideas, we got the same old fears
They're different colors sometimes, but, hey, who cares?
Just years that tears our lives apart
Just like the time that you tried to teach your cousin to walk
He couldn't do it-push!-you told him twice
Well, I do man but it just don't jive
Tried so hard to control my behavior
I tried so hard, so hard to believe you
But now I live only to deceive you...
So KICK and SCREAM!!!
(3:39)
It doesn't really matter, the things you say to me
Cause if I had a ladder, up there is where I'd be
Outta here where the air is cold, you're messing with my mind
Hey! You do it every time, Hey! And the season comes around
Once more,once more.
It doesn't really matter, the things you try to say
It doesn't really matter, you say 'em every day
Right now just give me more blood
Just give it to me deep red
A flowing river crimson
A flowing river burning with desire
It's great, but I never said how great
Hey, you never really asked, well, I'm asking you right now
So shut up and explain
What's on your mind
In this dark hour
I said it doesn't matter, I can't be that much fatter
And you'll never get as much blood
From a phony Blarney, stone, rock, hard, Granite!?! Solid.
(4:45)
"HEY!" WHAT?? "Oh nothing, just wondering why it is you're doing that whatever it is you're doing. "Oh yeah, why?" I dunno it just doesn't seem like something you'd be doing that's all you of all people, know what I mean? "Yeah I know it's been bugging you since the day I was born, huh? I asked my friend Anne about it. I said, 'Anne, Anne, Anne, what am I supposed to do, it's been bugging them since the day that I was born.' She said 'Do whatever the hell you want to do! Now is the time to do whatever you want, and it will still turn out great. You've got the world at your feet.'"
I never claimed to be different, I only said I was bored and she's tired of your uniqueness, it sends her over head first then the rest of her follows, the breath of life, it never left her hollow...
I can do everything, she said, she said with a smile.
And I can go anywhere tonight, cause I'm with Anne.
Anne, Anne, Who? Anne Dagnabit Island princess queen with the juice
What's this? I see she brought her whole uplown contingent. First there's
Jon E., he always loves a party, he's followed by Vinnie, who's feelin'
kinda skinny, he says "Hey Anne I'm starved what you got to eat, she
says "Vinnie you're always starving man get away from that fridge!
Here comes Lucy, she's feelin' really sexy, she's followed by her
boyfriend, who'd better not turn around, this time, or he's bound to lose
her, and here comes Jamilla, who's got the cream soda...
I can do everything, she said, she said with a smile
And I can go anywhere tonight, cause I'm with Anne
Can we being at the end to save some time?
Dead center
Point blank
Together
The clock is ticking
You have no authority here
Float like a dead man down the river
And there are no streets in this city
Et cetera is my worst enemy
It's low and I know it all will go
To the big hand of the god damned
You're here
Red dot
And now you know where not to go
The middle ground is absolute zero
What can be found at absolute zero
Can we begin at the end to save some time?
Et cetera is my worst enemy
It's low and I know it all will go
To the big hand of the god damned
The big hand of the bald man
The middle ground is absolute zero
What can be found at absolute zero
A happy end is absolute zero
Nobody wins an absolute zero
Worse than nothing
Drought makes the workers dream
Muscles and fields of green
Shovel the last few crumbs
Of generosity
Open heart, open mind, open mouth, open vein
DRAIN
Someday the rains will come
My blistered hands tell me
Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow
BITE
BITE
BITE
CRY
I'll keep coming back
smaller and smaller and smaller
squash me
smaller and smaller and smaller
under the charity
smaller and smaller and smaller
under the topsoil
smaller and smaller and smaller
under the fingernail
smaller and smaller and smaller
then small becomes all becomes all.......
BITE
BITE
BITE
CRY
It's not a mirage
It's not a mirage
trickling downward, trickling downward
It's not a mirage
DRAIN
DRAIN
BITE
BITE
BITE
CRY
smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller.......
(Patton, Gould)
This is getting old
and so are you.
Everything you know
and never knew.
Will run through your fingers
just like sand.
Enjoy it while you can.
Like a snake between two stones
it itches in your bones.
Take a deep breath and swallow
your sorrow
tomorrow.
So raise it up and lets propose a toast.
To the thing that hurts you most.
It's your last cup of sorrow.
What can you say?
Finish it today.
It's your last cup of sorrow.
So think of me
and get on your way.
It won't begin
until you make it end.
Until you know the how the where and the when.
With a new face you might surprise yourself.
Like a snake between two stones
it itches in your bones.
take a deeper breath and swallow
your sorrow
tomorrow.
So raise it up and lets propose a toast.
To the thing that hurts you most.
It's your last cup of sorrow.
what can you say?
Finish it today.
It's your last cup of sorrow.
So think of me
and get on your way!
You might surprise yourself
You might surprise yourself
(Patton)
Come home
It's been so long
We're missing you at home
So hang up that phone
Cuz I'm coming back
home
Come home
It's been so long
Can't hide no more
So hang up that phone
Cuz I'm coming back
home
Drive me home
(Patton, Bordin, Gould)
The air is warm
I hear the wind and the trees
I know I'm there, but I'll never be
The wind is soft tonight, the tide is low
And I know the way
(I never felt better now)
Sometimes life, it moves too slow
Slows to a crawl, and then the poetry is lost
And without speed, hope becomes certainty
And for once I'm certain
(I never felt better now)
A garden is it's own perfect world
Where everything has a place
Every leaf, every stone, every speck of dirt
But where's my place?
I even tried to get arrested today
But everyone looked the other way
I count the hours, and I count the days
But for once I'm certain
Don't want your help
Don't need your help
Don't want your help
Don't need your help
Helpless
You found a way to make me say
Help me please someone
The water's clear
I see that it's full of dimes
For every wish, I wonder why
Why all I want is something beautiful
A place to rest
(I never felt better now)
HELP
(Patton)
Got that feeling
Luck is just a little of it
Got that feeling
I can't stop winning
A to Z
Look what you're missing, as we speak
Your number's rising, take a peak
There's just enough to go around, get a piece
Your own little piece of hell
Got that feeling
Loving every minute of it
Got that feeling
I can't stop winning
Have a drink
A pot of coffee, cannot think
Too many friends here, just an inch
Between striking out and striking rich, just a risk
One I'll take and take again...
Got that feeling
Gotta bet a little of it
Got that feeling
I can't stop winning..
And start living
You can't borrow tomorrow
(Hudson, Patton)
Collision
My mission
When the dawn breaks
With a handshake
Relaxed and feelin' great
Screeching...head on
I'm needing a head on
All the day's plans
All the shaking hands
Beepers and suntans
Screeching...head on
I'm needing a head on
Collision
My mission
I want them to know it's me
Its on my head
Ill point the finger at me
Its on my head
Give it all to you, then I'll be closer
Smilin with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
Ill see you
I will let you shout no more
Its on my head
Ill pick you up from the floor
Its on my head
Ill let you even the score
Its on my head
Give it all to you, then I'll be closer
Smilin with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
Ill see you
Give the same to me then I'll be closer closer
Give the same to me then I'll be closer closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
Give the same to me then I'll be closer closer
I know the feeling
It is the real thing
The essence of the soul
The perfect moment
That golden moment
I know you feel it too
I know the feeling
It is the real thing
You can't refuse the embrace...
It's like the pattern beneath the skin
You gotta reach out and pull it all in
And you feel like you're too close
So you swallow another dose
The pinnacle of happiness
Filling up your soul
You don't think you can take any more
You never wanna let go
Cause it's the root of experience
The most basic ingredients
To see the unseen glitter of life
And feel the dirt, grief, anger and strife
Cherish the certainly of now
It kills you a bit at a time
Cradle the inspiration
It will leave you writhing on the floor...
This is so unreal,
What I feel,
This nourishment,
Life is bent,
In to a shape,
I can hold,
A twist of fate,
All my own,
Just grit your teeth,
And make no sound,
Take a step away
And look around,
Just clench your fist,
And close your eyes,
Look deep inside,
Hypnotize,
The whisper is,
But a shout,
That's what it is,
All about,
Yes, the ecstasy,
You can pray,
You will never let,
It slip away,
Like the sacred song that someone sings through you
Like the flesh so warm that the thorn sticks into
Like the dream you know one day will come to life
Try to hold on just a little longer, longer, stronger
It's the jewel of victory
The chasm of misery
And once you have bitten the core
You will always know the flavor
The split second of divinity
You drink up the sky
All of heaven is in your arms
You know the reason why
It's right there, all by itself
And what you are, there is nothing else
You're growing a life within a life
The lips of wonder kiss you inside
And when it's over the feeling remains
It all comes down to this
The smoke clears, I see what it is
That made me feel this way...
I know the feeling
It is the real thing
The essence of the soul
The perfect moment
That golden moment
I know you feel it too
I know the feeling
It is the real thing
You can't refuse the embrace...
This is so unreal,
What I feel,
Flood, sell your soul,
Feel the blood,
Pump through your veins,
Can't explain,
The element that's everything,
Just clench your fist,
And close your eyes,
Look deep inside,
hypnotize
Yes, the ecstasy,
You can pray
You will never let it slip away
Yes, the ecstasy,
You can pray,
You will never let it slip away
You will never let it slip away
You will never let it slip away
Like the echoes of your childhood laughter, ever after
Like the first time love urged you to take it's guidance, in silence
Like your heartbeat when you realize you're dying, but you're trying
Like the way you cry for a happy ending, ending...
I know the feeling

Backside melts into the sofa
My world, my TV, my food
Besides listening to my belly gurgle
Ain't much else to do
Yeah, I sweat a lot
Pants fall down every time I bend over
My feet itch
Yeah-I married a scarecrow
I hate you
Talking to myself
Everybody's starin' at me
I'm only bleedin'
Someone taps me on the shoulder every 5 minutes
Nobody speaks English anymore
Would anybody tell me if I was gettin' stupider?
I hate you
Talking to myself
You don't feel it after awhile
You take a beating
I'm a swingin' guy
Throw a belt over the shower curtain rod
And swing - - -
Toss me inside a Hefty
And put me in the ground
The drink needs me
I don't
I ain't about to guzzle no tears
so kiss my ass
newscasters, coakroaches, and desserts
I hate you
Talkin' to myself
Everybody's starin' at me
I'm only bleedin'
Where are the kids?

I think it's time I had a talk with my kids
I'll just tell 'em what my daddy told me
YOU AIN'T NEVER GONNA AMOUNT NOTHIN'
[Narration]
The faith and soars
Family at the room at well
Mannequin it pours it the devil
Drop the deceived and sacred
The wolves great actors
Faith dying in left dream paradise

You have a winning way, so keep it
Your future, your future.
You are an angel heading for a land of sunshine
and fortune is smiling upon you.
Prepare for a series of a comfortable miracles
from fasting to feasting.
And life to you is a dashing, bold adventure
So sing, and rejoice, and sing and rejoice.
And look for the dream that keeps coming back
Your future, your future.
So pat yourself on the back and give yourself a handshake, 'cause everything is not yet lost...
HERE'S HOW TO ORDER!
Yes, m-hmm.
Now for the next question -
Does emotional music
Have quite an effect on you?
Do you feel sometimes that age is against you?
Sing and rejoice, and sing and rejoice
That's interesting, but tell me: Do you often sing or whistle, just for fun?
Do you feel sometimes that age is against you?
I-I can help-I can help you-I can help you help yourself!
HERE'S HOW TO ORDER!
Varicose.
Comatose.
I started a joke
Which started the whole world crying
Oh but I didn't see
That the joke was on me, oh no
And I started to cry
Which started the whole world laughing
Oh if I'd only seen
That the joke was on me
And I looked at the skies
Running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed
Cursing my head for things that I've said
Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh if I'd only seen
That the joke was on me
And I looked at the skies
Running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed
Cursing my head for things that I've said
Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh if I'd only seen
You think its right when you see my reaction
some say a small sacrifice
but the consequence of you're actions hold a much higher price
cos what is going on
is just a slower wrong
joe's re-blinded by a smile ona different face
and what is going on
will lead to greater wrong
coz you're just more of the same
Some say move in the right direction
but i still fail to see
how the consequence of your actions
have sown any seeds
we're sick of being your fools
what the fuck is this?
what the fuck are we really talking about?
It nothing new
we see right through
a desertion of any true belief in creating real eqality for all
to many times they get away
but now tis time to make them pay
its time to enforce the actions we're fighting for
what are they thinking?
who they thinking for?
