Pleasure is melting like chocolate
My blue ribbon gumption is gone
All my gravy must have soaked into something
And the world
The filthy steps, the cold concrete
The phony earth below my feet
The ancient odor of the street
Yes, the world, world, world, it is a sponge
Yes, the world, world, world, it is a sponge
And when the crisis passes
When the coast is clear
I'll be buffed down to a liquid
And the world, world, world, it is a sponge
Yes, the world, world, world, world, it is a sponge
Yes, the world, world, world, world, world, it is a sponge
Throughout this entire ugly outing
I've been mumbling the convex of what I should be shouting
But I'll soon be silent, you'll soon hear nothing
'Cause the world, world, it is a sponge
The world, world, world, world, it is a sponge
This little penny is to dream on
To make all your wishes come true
Hip hip hooray
I'm in my big black holiday
No bulls died today
To a very unappreciative earth and sky
The land is recoiled
Asking as if it had said why
My ship leaves today
And I'm safely lowered away
Guess who I walked into
Guess who walked right up to say
A bloody nose and a bloody knife
Now I've disposed of my routine life
All seemed to implore seconds more
Give me more of this sublime night
Delux
Sublime
Gigantic for all times
and space
I wish for you the stars
bow down
I wish for you their infinite crown
In Velveteen
I will surround
With Velveteen
in your name
In Velveteen
I will surround
I'll keep this velvet
in your name
I'll keep this velvet
from the rain
So long, sleep well
Your purity speaks well
as you lay
with al these flowers
in your bed.
With all these flowers
you had left to give away
In Velveteen
I will surround
In Velveteen
in your name
In Velveteen
I will surround
I'll keep this velvet
in your name
I'll keep this velvet

ThereÅ a lot of noise going on
Some donÅ like the music theyÅ e playing
Some are dancing to a whole new song
When youÅ e on fire
Baby you gotta
Baby you gotta Baby you gotta roll
The waiters dress in a nervous breakdown
Kate Moss is out cutting the lawn
Vice grips the congregation
If you donÅ feel connected there is something wrong
When youÅ e on fire
Baby you
You gotta roll
When youÅ e on fire you gotta role
You can take what you want
Everything is free
You can come right in
Pay when you leave
If you can leave
Lights, camera, narcotics
Erection
You gotta feel
The procession
Come for a year or an hour
Far away from where
Tomatoes are flowers
We, we can do anything
why do they beat us down with their lies.
They object us they reject us
time after time then we ask ourselves
Why are we alive
"I can't hear anything"
They make silence their drug
We, we are everything
why do they beat us down to their size
The better we fit the bigger
they get and we justify their
lousy existance.
Why are we alive
"I can't hear anything"
Now and forever
The moment is gone and
Time runs out
Then it hits you with the
Pain
Things are great on the
Way up
But nobody is with you
When you're on the way
Down
You got what you wished
Is that what you really
Wanted
It's how I think of you
Raining in my
Indecision
Problems that took years
To build and build
And admission is too far
Away
Life in a blackout
Is like life in a storm
When you finally come out
You see that you're all
Alone
You got what you wished
Is that what you really
Wanted
The day you break is the
Day you're born
Then you deal with the
Blame
Is that what you wished
Will I wake up, is it a dream I made up?
No, I guess, it's reality what will change us
Or will we mess up our only chance
To connect with a dream?
Say a prayer for me
I'm buried by the sound
In a world of human wreckage
I'm lost and I'm found and I can't touch the ground
I'm plowed into the sound to see wide open
With a head that's broken
Hang a life on a tragedy, plow me under the ground
Look who came by again
For friendly old times
To see me
How long can you stay
Did you bring your disease
That makes me breathe
What you don't know
Is I keep your picture around me
Your vision surrounds me
It lets you know the power you have over me
Over me
I'll find God for Polyanna
Send light to Polyanna
Find God for Polyanna in me
I'll find God for Polyanna
New life for Polyanna
So Polyanna don't feel my misery
She don't feel my misery
Here I am again
Left for dead again
Oh how sweet
Come back any day
Anytime is okay to see me
What's left of me
What you don't know
Is I keep your vision around me
Your addiction surrounds me
It lets you know the power you have over me
Over me
I'll find God for Polyanna
Send light to Polyanna
Find God for Polyanna in me
I'll find God for Polyanna
A new life for Polyanna
So Polyanna don't feel my misery
She don't feel my misery
It goes to show the power you have over me
Over me
I'll find God for Polyanna
Send Light to Polyanna
Find God for Polyanna to me
I'll find God for Polyanna
A new life for Polyanna
So Polyanna don't feel my misery
She don't feel my misery
If you got your Polyanna
Come and weep with me
Offer Polyanna some sympathy
She was a waitress but convinced
She had been a dead movie star
reincarnated to live the live of a queen
But the real scars she was nursing
were not from her man but from
her beast of burden because in real life
she could not live her dreams
All day long he drove a cab
for 30 years he was the man
take you anywhere that you pleased
And for 30 years he was amazed
he took care of his wife and her bad legs,
he thought he lived a life like a machine
And he hoped he could heve been the
drummer man in some great big band
that would drive the world wild with his beat
(and oh yeah)
Baby said that
She always been a dreamer
She ain't scared with her hands up in the air
she shows the world she's a super star
can't you see.
Are stars made or are they born
she's glamorous but so unknown
and she's always so well recieved
and easy to love and easy to please
Baby said that
I see you naked in the
Bath
Cigarette stains on your
Hands
Wilted flowers in a vase
And I ask how you are
I see your lipstick on
Your glass
And I think you're drunk
And start to laugh
And I find your note the
Letters ran
And it said I loved you
Don't ask why
Sixteen candles down the
Drain
I watch you passed out for
A while
I touch your face you
Start to smile
And on your note is my
Reply
I wished I loved you
Don't ask why
Sixteen candles down the
Will I hate tomorrow
Will I hate what I can't
I'm doubting should I walk
Around it
Try to be what I can't be
I'm dying
I'm not happy anymore
I'm just not happy anymore
I'm drownin'
Suppose you painted the
Castle of Auvers
But everything you did
Came alive
And if you painted all
These things just to
Please me
And if you could read my
Mind
I would never be happy
What will change tomorrow
In this sea within a sea
I'm blinded
How long will I be down
Here
I'm out of air
I can not breathe
Hey my lackluster love
You are my one and only drug
I'll give you anything at all
Even though it might be pain
Relax killer you're a god
Everything fits so damn hard
Let's sit and enjoy the pain
They say we should feel so ashamed
But we know better
But we know better
Let's sing together
La la la
A demolition's going on
You complete me my A-bomb
You're like a needle in the arm
Every minute every day
You're my unit, you're the one
You're so space age when you come
Let's sit and enjoy the pain
They say we should feel so ashamed
But we know better
But we know better
Let's sleep together
La la la
I feel so inside of you
Hey my lackluster love
You are my one and only drug
Let's sit and enjoy the pain
They say we should feel so ashamed
But we know better
But we know better
Let's sing together
I found your name in a book and in
that book a letter, were the words of
a girl who said that she was lead away and
left for dead but somehow she survived
it. How was it no one would believe that
you were part of their world a different world
one they denied you
If I could help you I would
help you now you can speak through me
I am Anastasia
I'm haunted by a girl whose
life's locked in these pages
But through these works she will be free through
me I know we won't forget her
She can speak through me

"I hope my head will heal
I hope my head will heal
it's all I ever wanted to feel
All well adjusted"
I just can't feel this way anymore
Feeling this way got to be a bore
"I hope my head will heal
I hope my head will heal"
It's problematic and compelling
a corrupt disguise
"I hope my head will heal
I hope my head will heal"
A flaming martyr with the pangs
of a Jesus Christ
"It's all I ever wanted but I'm
so self distructive"
I can't feel this way anymore
Feeling this way got to be a bore
So simple unassuming selfless
human acts of grace
With a murderd ego I go
surely this can't be vain
To know what you want knows
the essence of all insane
as I am we are
Do you think she'll notice
That I'm a wreck again
Do you think she'd notice
That I've lost a new pair
Of boots
Do you think she'll notice
How I felt in bed again
I guess it's nothing new
'Cause nobody's listening
It's like giants falling
Down
Do you think I noticed
That she came in late
Again
Do you think I noticed
She's wearing a new
Perfume
Do you think I noticed
How she wore her hair
Today
She said it's nothing new
'Cause nobody's listening
It's like giants falling
Oh God, here it comes
Again
Here's that memory that'll
Just break my back
And when I figured it out
I thought I'd get by
Here it comes, it'll
Blacken the sun
It'll bury me alive
Save me from myself
Turn around, throw it all
Away
Turn around until it all
Breaks down
To the fields of falling
Angels
Best friends what we used
To say
All this time it feels
Like yesterday
Remembering when we said
Goodbye
Still I doubt I'll ever
Figure out why
Save me from myself
Turn around. Throw it all
Away
Turn around 'til it all
Breaks down
To the fields of falling
Angels
If I die before I wake
It'll never end the sorrow
Ordinarily I don't feel so
buried but I'm thinking again
and I've lost some time.
I disappear and I re-appear
someone pull me
out of the clouds.
who let this happen
who made me think I
had it down
I can imagine You.
These thoughts I carry I
wear around just like an
electric shock just pull
the switch and watch me
twitch you'll always see
me smile
Bless you
Bless our victorious war
I pray for you
Blood and candy mixing on
The floor
I close your eyes
Strings of candy corns
A string of pearls
A candy for each day
Each on breathes memories
In a hollow man, who says,
"I hear a voice"
Strings of candy corns
All silhouettes
Walk in front of me
They fear your face
When around their necks
I place these candy beeds
Sitting with my eyes closed
Sitting with my head up
And I'll do, I'll do
My 28 days
Everytime I look back
I would have to turn Back
And even another
28 days
I'll be a killer
I'll be a heavy calliber man
that you wanted
I'll be a big black killer in the klu klux klan
Give up all my money
Give up all my favorites
and everyone and everyone will think I'm gay
Hanging with my villian
My GTO handler
And I'll do, I'll do my
28 days!
I'll be a rockstar
With my head tied up in knots
or a housewife
With a big smokin gun and lots of pot
I'll be a dead man
With my head blowin off
GUN SHOT
or a retard
I'll be pickin my nose
And eating my snot
Trouble slips right through my hands
Its cocane in a rock 'n' roll band
Hear the voices in my head
Telling me that they're all dead
I'll be a killer
I'll be a heavy calliber man
that you wanted
I'll be a big black killer in the klu klux klan
Girl you be careful
There's scissors on the table
After, After my 28 days
Feel what you want
But nothing will make you
Think I'm clean after all I've done
28 days
28 days
28 days...
Hey okay it's just another day
24 useless hours
What difference does it make
If your heart ain't changed
Things will be okay
If you'll be mine
Hey okay on a different day
Just the two of us stranded
In our own spaces
If this love is fate
True love always waits
And I know
Hope you'll be
I hope you'll be
I hope you'll be mine
1,000 times that's my lover's promise
1,000 times that love is here to stay
True love always waits
And I know
Hope you'll be
I hope you'll be
I hope you'll be mine
In my dreams that's where I'll meet you
Reaching out to stars above you
Call my name I will come to you
I can send my message to you
Eternally soul-to-soul
Hey okay nothing takes your place
But the world gets colder
Feelings don't fade
But you're so far away
And I'm feelings don't fade
But you're so far away
And I'm praying for the day
1,000 times that's my lover's promise
1,000 times that love is here to stay
True love always waits
And I know I hope you'll be
I hope you'll be
I hope you'll be
I hope you'll be mine
Where has my lover gone
When things just aren't going your way
Like a problem hair would you pluck or shave?
But shaving got to be such a bore
You deserve so much more
Happiness is just a purchase away
Angelina, it'll fix your hunchback
Angelina, it'll help your time pass
Angelina, here's a forecast
Angelina, it's science, we never laugh
Here's something that is automatic
It's wax ecstatic
When life is nothing less than tragic
It's wax ecstatic
When life has lost all its magic
It's wax ecstatic
When life can't promise the fantastic
Throw all your troubles away
You have nothing left you want to save
With this circus you'll need nothing more
And all your troubles walk out the door
And it all is just a phone call away
Angelina, it'll fix your hunchback
Angelina, it'll help your time pass
Angelina, here's a forecast
Angelina, it's science, we never laugh
Here's something that is automatic
It's wax ecstatic
When life is nothing less than tragic
It's wax ecstatic
When life has lost all its magic
It's wax ecstatic
When life can't promise the fantastic
It's wax ecstatic
Here's something that is automatic
It's wax ecstatic
When life is nothing less than tragic
It's wax ecstatic
When life has lost all its magic
It's wax ecstatic
When life can't promise the fantastic
It's wax ecstatic
It's wax ecstatic
It's wax ecstatic
It's wax ecstatic
Now here's a little story, I've got to tell
About three bad brothers, you know so well
It started way back in history
With Adrock, M.C.A., and me, Mike D.
Been had a little horsy named Paul Revere
Just me and my horsy and a quart of beer
Riding across the land, kicking up sand
Sheriff's posse on my tail cause I'm in demand
One lonely Beastie I be
All by myself, with nobody
The sun is beating down on my baseball hat
The air is gettin' hot, the beer is getting flat
Lookin' for a girl, I ran into a guy
His name is M.C.A., I said, "Howdy", he said, "Hi"
He told a little story, that sounded well rehearsed
Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst
The brew was in my hand, and he was on my tip
His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry, he asked me for a sip
He said, "Can I get some?"
I said, "You can't get none!"
Had a chance to run
Pulled out his shotgun
Quick on the draw, I thought I'd be dead
He put the gun to my head and this is what he said,
"Now my name is M.C.A., I've got a license to kill
I think you know what time it is, it's time to get ill
Now what do we have here, an outlaw and his beer
I run this land, you understand, I make myself clear."
We stepped into the wind, he had a gun, I had a grin
You think this story's over but it's ready to begin
Now, "I got the gun, you got the brew
You got two choices of what you can do
It's not a tough decision as you can see
I can blow you away or you can ride with me" I said,
I'll ride with you if you can get me to the border
The sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter
I did it like this, I did it like that
I did it with a whiffleball bat
So I'm on the run, the cop's got my gun
And right about now, it's time to have some fun
The King Adrock, that is my name
And I know the fly spot where they got the champagne."
We rode for six hours then we hit the spot
The beat was a bumping and the girlies was hot
This dude was staring like he knows who we are
We took the empty spot next to him at the bar
M.C.A. said, "Yippe Yo, you know this kid?"
I said, "I didn't.", but I know he did
The kid said, "Get ready cause this ain't funny
My name's Mike D. and I'm about to get money."
Pulled out the jammy, aimed it at the sky
He yelled, "Stick 'em up!", and let two fly
Hands went up and people hit the floor
He wasted two kids that ran for the door
"I'm Mike D. and I get respect
Your cash and your jewelry is what I expect
I had your mom last night and she was a drag
So slut 1 and slut 2 is who i bagged"
M.C.A. was with it and he's my ace
So I grabbed the piano player and I punched him in the face
The piano player's out, the music stopped
His boy had beef, and he got dropped
Mike D. grabbed the money, M.C.A. snatched the gold
If I was dirt that filled up your life
If I was dirt, so pure and so refined
I'd be the dirt that
That blackened all that shined
Which one would show a purity?
Which one could show how curious
This purity has been?
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness
If I was dirt that would make you lie
Could I be dirt in your irreverent smile?
Please pass the dirt
I'll have some on mine
Which one would show my purity?
Which one could show how curious
This purity has been?
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness
Drag me down and plough me under
Nothing stays the same
Drag me down and plough me under
Nothing will ever change
If I was the dirt you brought
Through your doorstep
Did that dirt leave you feeling molested?
How was that dirt that you've ingested?
Which one would show my purity?
Which one could show how curious
This purity has been?
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity
My purity, my purity
My thoroughness, my purity

Now I sit and stare into the burning sun
It all fades to black in this sanitarium
Now I don't care if tomorrow never comes
I've got some new friends in this sanitarium
Now my friends don't come to see me
And if they did, I wouldn't know who they are
I know they'd ask me exactly when I cracked
I've been lost so long, I aint never coming back
Now I sit and stare into the burning sun
It all fades to black in this sanitarium
Now I don't care if tomorrow never comes
I've got some new friends in this sanitarium
Now you might not think I'm crazy
And now I'm right where I belong
I've got to tell you that I made it home at last
I aint lost my mind, I've just given up on the past
Now I sit and stare into the setting sun
It all fades to black in this sanitarium
(repeat chorus)
Driving home late one night
Under lazy moon and green dashboard light
Turned on the radio
Heard a voice I heard before say
"That I ran away from home
When I was 13 years old
And why is the world so cold"
And you hope that the life
That you're carrying inside
Doesn't do what you do
Doesn't know the pain
You've been through
That your mother left your father
She fell in love with another
And he took it out on you
I'm here to tell you
Everything's all right
Your message found its
Message found its way
On the radio prayer line
Radio prayer line
You're feelings alone and lost
You can't find your way
Pain's all you feel
Pain's all that's real
You wonder "Will I ever heal?"
You found someone
That would treat you right
He don't beat you
He don't stay out all night
Now you carry his baby
You're afraid he will run away
And could someone there
Please pray
He will many you someday
He will love you for the rest
Of his life
I'm here to tell you
Everything's all right
Your message found it's
Message found it's way
On the radio prayer line
Space, light, sound and mind exactly what is real
Into a universe we fly we are her will
In my space suite out among the stars
I look and feel them on my radar
Planet girls
You make my satellites whirl
You shake up my world
Planet girls and satellite girls
You make up my world
With her gravity and smile all things seem so clear
In a trap set long ago so life freely spills
You seem to feel you know where they are
You think you see them on your radar
Planet girls
You make my satellites whirl
You shake up my world
Planet girls and satellite girls
You make up my world
In my space suite out among the stars
I look and feel them on my radar
I know where they are
I know where they are
Planet girls and satellite girls
You make up my world
Planet girls
You make my satellites whirl
You shake up my world
Shake up my world
Shake up my world
Shake up, shake up my world
Well she was
Clearly nervous
She asked me if I would drive
And I noticed
Then I knew
She had been drinking
And I always could
Read between the lines
There she was
Clearly nervous
Because there was something
That I had neglected
I was obvious
She could see right through me
Then we made love, ya we made love
So unprotected
Now here we are
ItÅ a New Pop Sunday
We went too far
And now youÅ e gone
The brightest star
On my darkest Monday
Now here we are
ItÅ a New Pop Sunday
Well she was
Clearly nervous
And I noticed she had
Something on her mind
But I was cool
Yeah I was cool
I knew what was coming
But doctors ainÅ really
Hard to find
Now here we are
ItÅ a New Pop Sunday
We went too far
And now youÅ e gone
The brightest star
On my darkest Monday
Now here we are
Forever gone
Forever gone
Take my lips and sew them shut
Without words I'll dry up and blow away
She said that we were both so out of touch
And when we talked we'd say things
That don't mean anything
I hear your voice but you're so far away
I can do without these things
But what I can't do
Is live here without you
Live here without you
Live here without you
I can't kiss you anymore
I can't miss you anymore
Love's not easy to ignore
When your heart likes bleeding on the floor
I'll just sit and count the days
The days until you'll be mine
I'll take in air and I'll fill it up
Never breathing out I'll burst in flames
Without you I can never get enough
Of the thing that makes me feel like
Life's worth anything
I feel your touch at the thought of your name
I can do without these things
But what I can't do
Is live here without you
Live here without you
Live here without you
I can't kiss you anymore
I can't miss you anymore
Love's not easy to ignore
When your heart likes bleeding on the floor
I'll just sit and count the days
The days until you'll be mine
I don't want anything
Like a Jesus or a Superman
I don't want for anything
If you could be here with me again
I can do without these things
But what I can't do
Is live here without you
Live here without you
Live here without you
I can't kiss you anymore
I can't miss you anymore
Love's not easy to ignore
When your heart likes bleeding on the floor
I'll just sit and count the days
The days until you'll be mine
I can't kiss you anymore
I never felt alone like this before
Love ain't easy to ignore
I just can't live here anymore
Time is killing me and I'm killing
Nothing but time
Painkillers emotional thriller
I really found out I was my one and only killer
My one and only killer
Painkillers emotional trigger
ItÅ a rich manÅ war
But itÅ a poor manÅ fight
ItÅ just a poor manÅ fight
I wish I was taller
I wish I was smart
I wish I did not have this hole in my heart
I wish
I wish
If thereÅ anything left
IÅ l just turn right around and disconnect
I feel so disconnected
Pain killer emotional filler
An eight ball in the corner pocket
Or an eight ball up your nose
An eight ball up your nose
Pain killer emotional trigger
The band was so bad we danced
To the sound of breaking dishes
To the sound of breaking dishes
I wish I was taller
I wish I was smart
I wish I did not have this hole in my heart
I wish
I wish
If thereÅ anything left
IÅ l turn right around and disconnect
Disconnected
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well alright
Now the great white dope
Is now the great white hope
Tell me who out there is really listening
At the dirty hands
The mighty swords will sing
To the deafening sounds of the latest thing
I wish I was taller
I wish I was smart
I wish I did not have this hole in my heart
I wish
I wish
If thereÅ anything left
IÅ l just turn right around and disconnect
Life is hard
When it seems
That you're a fish
On the hook
Of the American dream
We're the All American Boys
Looking for
The All American world
Lots of us are looking
Some die trying
If life's so beautiful
Why do I feel like crying
The All American
The All American world
You may wander
What you're compromising
When you feel your blood
Pressure rising
All American noise
Looking for the All American world
The All American
The All American world
Lights attract on the
Boulevard
In the U.S. of Vegas
You've used up your last chance
You'd sell your soul
In this pulp romance
But you can't sell a thing
You already gave away
He there man
There ain't no denying
Things are looking good

All American noise
Looking for the

Tell me what is it like?
Is there enough for me?

I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this can't be happening.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this can't be happening.
At twenty-one I thought,
this is fine, but is this all there is?
At twenty-five I didn't feel alive
But I said that I'd get used to it.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this can't be happening.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this can't be happening.

At thirty-one, I'm told,
I'll feel old, but I'd understand it.
At thirty-two I came unglued,
Now maybe I'd live.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this can't be happening.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm only seventeen years old, this can't be happening.

Get on the rodeo that is
Your life
Beat on me
Spill my insides out on
The ground
Cut on me
I will go when i say die
I will rot away
Like a rotting pinata
See my soul
It cuts a hole in the sky
Standing near
Watch the birds eat out my
Eyes
It will rot away
Like a rotting pinata
Here lies this junk of me
Here lies this wreck that
Was me
Oh God help me rot
I don't look quite the
Same
Grab my beating heart
Tear it from this broken
Cage today
I'm rotting
I'm coloring
I'm red and black
I'm twice my size
Don't cry for me
Just pull the plug
And let me fly
I will rot away

The invitations said that this was
something new
a preacher will ask for more than
two "I do's"
In our wedding dance we will
take the chance
That people accept our new
point of view
With each one in hand the
wedding party stands
1,000 foot tralns between the two
of you
The flower girls launching from
their hands one million rose petals
that start up the band
An Imaginary Marriage there is
always room for you
In this Imaginary Marriage there
is always
room for two
The brides and groom
they dance across the room a bouquet
is tossed they leave to honeymoon
The traditionalist spit they choke
and have a fit what they really want
Cold wind blowing on your bed
When you speak I see you breathe
You say come lay down for awhile
We lay there as if we're dead
I am your death, you are mine
Tell me what to feel / Welcome home
Newspapaer curtains up on the wall
The dog's messin' on the floor
Let's let it out for awhile
Birds flying through the walls
Children screaming in the halls
Do they look like me, are they mine
Tell me what to feel / Welcome home
With a sparkle boot on the
Grave of Elvis he shouted " Hey King, I'm here
It's your Queen
And it's been such a long time my friend and I've
brought a couple of beers"
There's Drag Queens
There's Drag Queens
In Memphis
With a giddy up and a rodeo with killer
Detroit style and killer Detroit smiles
They had sparkles on their footsteps
you know they even had cowboys stuck
in their eyes
There's Drag Queens
There's Drag Queens
In Memphis
Otis, I can still hear you are sitting
out on the dock
The music will never stop
Sam and Dave said "Get ready"
you know the rest said "I'm comin'
I'm comin' " baby, make it last
There's Drag Queens
There's Drag Queens
A row of yellow in this yard
A million if you said you wanted
I would do just about anything
As they grew I sat and hoped for
Your forgiveness but none offered
You chopped them down and you walked away
I thought everything was all right
Can you see the differences in me
But everything has turned to night
And all that grows here is weeds
[Verse 1]
You're the kid from down the street,
The one we used to greet,
& We're glad that it turned out good,
Were pleased that you done well,
But maybe you could tell,
Us in person like real friends should.
Because it doesn't take that much,
& You then you find your outta touch,
With the people you call friends,
So maybe now it's time,
You should drop them all a line,
Yeah it's time to make amends.
[Bridge]
You shouldn't take it for granted,
The roots that you've planted,
Will be fine,
You should make it a mission,
To go back & check from time to time.
[Chorus]
Break out, Play about,
But don't leave out,
People that you started it from.
Break out, Play about,
But don't leave out,
People where you started it from.
[Verse 2]
It didn't take that much,
To say you'd keep in touch,
But how many people do?
There the ones that got you there,
Doesn't mean you have to care,
I guess that is up to you.
They're the best days of your life,
The time you learn to run/ to write,
No money could buy you those,
So hold on to your past,
You've gotta make those friendships last,
Coz the good time comes & goes!
[Bridge]
[Chorus x 2]
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
Growin' up,
Getting old,
Don't wanna be,
Left in the cold.
A different place,
A newer face,
Conceal the past,
Without a trace.
It only takes,
A little while,
To call them up,
& Make 'em a smile!
[Bridge]
You know
What it feels like
To be naked
To be ground by
Giant pennywheels
I dream
No one. Yeah there's
No one that can't hear
All the sounds like
Giant pennywheels
I dream
Shiny copper crushing me
I watch the wheels
Roll in your eyes
Pick one up I think it's
Junk
I'm ready and I'm willing
I'll subscribe
I'm naked and I'm wasted
I'm naked and I'm wasted
You know
What it feels like
To be naked
To begin but not complete
To sleep but not to wake
To always be lost and
Never find the way
No thoughts or memory
No hope or tragedy
A mirror waits for a
Reflection of a face
To hit the ground and know
The sound
Trial by mistake
Death's a crown we wear
Around
Like a smile on a face
They will never hate or
They will never break or
They will never break or
They will never wave
Goodbye
A silence that would not
Break
The loss of a face
The face of a woman that
Arrived much too late
I break down and she sees
The clowns
I used to hide away
Death to clowns all their
Crowns
And the smiles on their
Face
They will never break or
They will never hate or
They will never say or
Smile
They will never break or
Neenah Menasha will wait
Neenah Menasha . Neenah
Menasha
Will wait
I break down and she sees
The clowns
I used to hide away
Death to clowns and all
Their crowns
And the smiles on their
Face
They will never hate or
They will never break or
They will never break or
They will never wave
Two brothers
The walking dead
Pray for the silence
Said
One shot to the sky
The other held down
By disguise
Sex for an angry man
To whores they can count
On him
One made of paper
The other glass
One will tear
The other crashed
Oh God, was I that man up
On a cross
Made of steel
Stuck on my wall cold and
Thin
Who watched me die
And did not care
Miles to go before I sleep
The inside marched on
Parade to the outside
Where no one came
What was there, it
Scorched the ground
Hey my lackluster love
You are my one and only drug
I'll give you anything at all
Even though it might be pain
Relax killer you're a god
Everything fits so damn hard
Let's sit and enjoy the pain
They say we should feel so ashamed
But we know better
But we know better
Let's sing together
La la la
A demolition's going on
You complete me my A-bomb
You're like a needle in the arm
Every minute every day
You're my unit, you're the one
You're so space age when you come
Let's sit and enjoy the pain
They say we should feel so ashamed
But we know better
But we know better
Let's sleep together
La la la
I feel so inside of you
Hey my lackluster love
You are my one and only drug
Let's sit and enjoy the pain
They say we should feel so ashamed
But we know better
But we know better
What kind of man put a gun in his hand
Wags his tail like a dog for his dinner?
What kind of man put a gun in his hand
Make that man ain't no saint, ain't no sinner?
What makes a man break away from the chains
That keep him from being a winner?
Don't push me away (x8)
Leave me dying on the side of the road
Now I'm talking to God, I really feel it
I'm screwed down and I'm glued down just like a fucking insect
I'm screwed down and I'm taking something's life for make my heroin
I'm screwed down and glued down
I'm just a man like any other man
Give away his son or his daughter
Yeah, I'm afraid that we've all been betrayed
We're all pigs just led to the slaughter
I was a man that fought best he can
To keep his head above water
Don't push me away (x8)
Make you wishing that you are all alone
Is everybody losing their minds? Somebody, tell me
I'm screwed down and I'm glued down just like a fucking insect
I'm screwed down and I'm taking something's life for make my heroin
I'm screwed down and I'm glued down just like a fucking insect
I'm screwed down and glued down
Get it, worms
(x2)
Push me away
Don't push me away (x3)
I'm screwed down and I'm glued down just like a fucking insect
I'm screwed down and I'm taking something's life for make my heroin
I'm screwed down and I'm glued down just like a fucking insect
We are the dear departed
The ones that walk alone
We are the last ones standing
No where to call our home
You won't be soon forgotten
You won't be left behind
When everything fades to black
Everywhere I go
I fade from view
When I think of you
I'd like you to know
That you're here with me
In my finest hour
Everywhere I go people
Fade from view
They fade from view
We are the ones unbroken
Remembered for all time
Brought up into the battle
Remembered for our fight
Into eternity hear our cries
Echoing
When everything fades to black
Everywhere I go
I fade from view
When I think of you
I'd like you to know
That you're here with me
In my finest hour
Everywhere I go
People fade from view
Are you fading too?
I'd like you to know
You can fade with me
[Japan Release]
Well she was clearly nervous
cause she asked me if she could
drive
and I knew how did I know
she had drinking
And I always could read between
the lines
Well I was clearly nervous cause there was
something that I had neglected
It was obvious she could see right
through me
but we made love so unprotected
Mekrom Bomb gone forever
Mekrom Bomb forever gone
(Got me nervous)
(Dropped it on my head)
Well she was clearly nervous
Something weighed heavy on her mind
But I was cool I knew what was
coming
[Hidden track]
Ordinarily I don't feel so
buried but I'm thinking again
and I've lost some time.
I disappear and I re-appear
someone pull me
out of the clouds.
who let this happen
who made me think I
had it down
I can imagine You.
These thoughts I carry I
wear around just like an
electric shock just pull
the switch and watch me
twitch you'll always see
If you see Mary please will you help her
She seems to be looking for answers
If you see Mary please will you help her
with questions that go unanswered
Like why does she feel all dead on the inside
But as a child she remembers feeling alive
who was that man that made
my mother cry all night
was that my father who was my father
If you see Mary please will you help her
She seems to be looking for answers
If you see Mary please will you help her
with questions that go unanswered
The men that walked into her life
are no different than all the others
that promise the world and then they leave her
She says I should have known better,
I should have known better
Will she always feel so all alone
Why was there never a man in her home
and will I end up like my mother
by myself with no other
with no other
If you see Mary please will you help her
She seems to be looking for answers
If you see Mary please will you help her
In heaven and made up she felt so cold
the thing she wanted was not hers to own
somebody take me home
somebody take me home
One day she stole him into her dreams
Now behold it a love supreme
Here is a human in unusual form
and finds a mans man
and now love adorns
Here comes the death of a drag queen
The death of a drag queen
Pursed and tragic fully obscene
Funs her man up the lumberjack queen
While someone sits at home
While someone is alone
While someone sits at home
While someone is alone
Death of a Drag Queen
With my murder style it will bring him home, home
Dried blood on make up
and her skin all torn
a resurrection smile
is the last thing she wore
she ain't never goin' home
Death of a Drag Queen
Will I hate tomorrow?
Will I hate what I can't see?
I'm doubting
Should I walk around it
Try to be what I can't be
I'm dying
I'm not happy any
I'm just not happy anymore
I'm drownin'
I'm not happy any
I'm just not happy anymore
I'm drownin'
Suppose you painted the castle of Auvers
But everything you did came alive
And if you painted all these things just to please me
And if you could read my mind
I would never be happy
What will change tomorrow?
In this sea within a sea
I'm blinded
How long will I be down?
I'm out of air I can not breath
I'm drownin'
I'm not happy any
I'm just not happy anymore
I'm drownin'
I'm not happy any
I'm just not happy anymore
I'm drownin'
I'm drownin'
I'm drownin'
Yeah well I'm, I'm drownin'
Yeah yeah I'm drownin'
Son of
Son of a gun
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart
When I met you boy, you were as sweet as cherry pie
That smiling eye you were as wild as Friday night
I should have known how ever hard you try
Changed come and strangle it
It was bound to die
You were sweet as cherry pie
Wild as Friday night
Sweet as cherry pie
Wild as Friday night
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart in two
Gotta find out what I meant to you, oh boy
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart in two
Where were you just when I needed you?
You gave me your soul for at least a day
Listen boy, there was a time when I wanted you to stay
You'll know the cost, it's you who's gonna pay
I'm stronger now, I loved you then
I'll ask you anyway
You were sweet as cherry pie
Wild as Friday night
Sweet as cherry pie
Wild as Friday night
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart in two
Where were you just when I needed you, boy?
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart in two
I needed you
You teased me
You broke my heart
You broke my heart
You were the only one
You were the only one
You're a son of a gun
You were the only one
You were the only one
Oh boy, you broke my heart
Sweet as cherry pie
Sweet as cherry pie
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You're the one who broke my heart in two
Gotta find out what I meant to you, oh boy
Gotta find out what I meant to you
Where were you just when I needed you?
Gotta find out what I meant to you, boy
Where were you when I needed you?
You were the only one
You were the only one
Son of a gun
You were the only one
I'm feeling strong
I loved you then
So I ask you anyway
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You broke my heart
Gotta find out
Gotta find out what I meant to you
You teased me
You were the only one
You were the only one
Son of a gun
You were the only one
So Forget
If it's a little time that you're needin
I'll be a little violin that's playin
I'll be the space that helps your eyes see clearer
Please tell me are you all right now
And are you whole right now
Are you whole right now
And are you whole right now
I've done you right but you just done me wrong
[Chorus]
Treat me wrong
Why you wanna treat me wrong
I'm sorry that you're leaving but I'm happy that your gone
Treat me wrong
Why you wanna treat me wrong
I'm sorry that you're leaving but I'm happy that your gone
I'm so sorry
But what did i say that really upset you
I know you're so sensitive and peculiar
But based on all our very last conversation
I thought that you'd be hangin' around
Hangin' around
Hangin' around
But you're not hangin' around
I've done you right but you just done me wrong
[Chorus] x 2
You're gone
And you're gone
And you're gone
And you're gone
And you're gone
And you're gone
And you're gone
And you're gone
And you're gone
You're gone
You're gone
Done you right but you just done me wrong
[Chorus]x2
That you're gone
You fell on me for the last time
Ugly of the worst kind
Imposing like a dark cloud
Reaching out wrong
Push away, holding me
Crushing me, push away
Holding me, crushing me, hungry, dig in
Hungry, please, push away, holding me
Crushing me, push away
Holding me, crushing me
I can bet that you pucker up
I can bet that you lie down
I can bet that you get yours
I can bet that you get yours
Because that's your life
Wanting, needing, taking, stealing
Imposing like a dark cloud
Reaching out wrong, push back
Pull the wool over your eyes
I can bet that you pucker up
I can bet that you lie down
I can bet that you get yours
I can bet that you get yours
I left my head at home,
Buried in the backyard with the dog.
I've thought of leaving more times than once.
I'm leaving you all alone.
I tried so hard to be the rock,
But all I felt like was a wet sponge.
I want to run, I just can't.
The things it takes to be a man.
I'm on a road.
I'm not proud of the things I have done.
Don't let my living bring you down.
You'll never know how much it hurts to nod when I'm the
son.
I'll never stand and watch you drown.
I'm under a spell.
This isn't what I want for us.
We've held it all together this long.
My spines deep as well.
My heart is bigger than you know.
This family is just a sad song.
I want to run, I just can't.
The things it takes to be a man.
I'm on a road.
I'm not proud of the things I have done.
Don't let my living bring you down.
You'll never know how much it hurts to nod when I'm the
son.
My heart's a sponge it's soaking up love
My skin's a screen it let's nothing in but
I'd let it open for you
I'd let it open for you
There is a flame I'm scared to know
Need you to put it where it goes but
I'd let it burn me for you
I'd let it burn me for you I want you inside
Always be inside
I've always known it that they'll never understand me
But I know you do
Though I wake with resolve
That all drips off as the day wears on
You're in my heart somewhere
Though tempests rage and souls they slave
The grace of Heaven won't ever lessen
You're in my heart somewhere
You're in my heart somewhere
I'd let it burn me for you
I'd let it burn me for you
I want you inside
Always be inside
I've always known it that they'll never understand me
