Why must I wait 'til the rain falls down?
Why must I wait 'til the rain falls down?
You don't have to wait 'til the rain falls down
For another hundred years
For another hundred years
I wanna know why the pain from another
Flows through me, the pressure on high
I can't stand the pain from another
It's calling out my name, calling out my name
Why must I wait
You know, why's he talking a son (?)
You know, just what has begun
You know, think I'm going on the run
'cause its calling out my name, calling out my name
Why must I wait for the rain
Why must I wait for the rain
I see space in this madness
'Til the rain, 'til the rain, 'til the rain falls down
Wasn't too long ago that you could go to a show
Without trying to be somebody you're not
Now the tables are turned and you're getting burned
Don't let them tell you it rocks
It's all about what your wear, the color of your hair
And how many tatoos you got on your arm.
So how did we get here where'd it all go wrong?
Flying through the airwaves coming into your home
All the suits in Hollywood are gonna roll in all the dough
Tell me that you need it tell me that you feel it this is the new sensation
Come on and just try it you know you can't fight it this is gonna sweep the
nation.
I think back to this day when all the bands used to play
Without giving a shit about what was in
Now it has changed scenes rearranged
Let's start it over again
What really matters to me is so easy to see
It's staring us right in the face
We gotta put it behind get back in line
We gotta save this dying race.
I don't think you feel it I don't think you need it this is no new sensation
I don't think you need it I don't think you feel it why don't change the
My situation brings me down again
Boredom wraps its arms around me
My inhibitions were thrown out the door so long ago
Now I sit here and I can't breathe.
I feel I'm going nowhere fast
I ask myself how long this is going to last.
Chorus
So I go day by day
and it feels the same way
Laugh at all the jokes I've heard before
On and on
I turn the same page
Drunk and lying passed out on the floor
What for
These complications have been here for so long
I don't think they're ever gonna leave
Tired of dealing with motivation
Stagnant as the water that I'm gonna drown my head in
Soon you'll see
I feel I'm going nowhere fast
I ask myself how long this is going to last.
Chorus
The reason the season
locked up inside I'm screaming
I'm trying defying everything that wasn't right
To get out of here.
Day by day
and it feels the same way
Laugh at all the jokes I've heard before
On and on
I turn the same page
Drunk and lying passed out on the floor
What for
Well I'm back on the road again lost among the city lights
We step up harder just to make it to the show tonight
With yesterday's antics still playing in my head
Well another day's upon us so let's do it all again.
Now it's just another town another day another year
And we got to wait till five o'clock before we crack a beer
Somewhere it's gonna be five o'clock yeah that's what we say
It's all just a game to keep ourselves sane.
Drink smoke drink smoke this is what we do
Drink smoke drink smoke playing it for you
Born to roam here we go yeah
Another city and another day
The road's my home we're all alone yeah
Out on the streets is where we gotta stay
Well we barely see the light of the sun
With all the midnight fun
It's coming down on my head I feel it
But music's part of my soul
So I jump back in head first my arms around it.
don't let you know i'll do ya no good
while ya go down that stronghold like ya know ya should
living up in a cloud your finalizing all your pain
the pressure building all around and it calls your name
wake up in the morning the sun shining on my face
got to give thanks to the heavens for this beautiful place
i know i know my responsibility
i know i know we need this shelter for me
i climb up to the mountain
i shout out to the sky
you can have my body
but the leapoardskin tights...
can't fight the feeling
when it calls your name
can't fight the feeling
when it calls your name
I'm lost again out on the highway
Searching for answers that I fear
And it couldn't be much clearer
When objects in the mirror are closer than they appear
My mind is definitely twisted can't let go of the past
And there's no one left to blame
when the lights all look the same
And reflections disappear so fast
Road signs ahead are long overdue
Now there's direction to let go is on you
Let go let go child
The stars hang bright above the mountain
While the sun gently sleeps in the sea
I will keep my eyes ahead let what's done
be done be dead
And release the pressure haunting me
Dark cold night back in the distance
with a brand new day up ahead
I will keep my dream alive
Forward I will strive
So reflections can't catch up with me
Let go let go child
Dont wanna live the normal life
Got contraband in my eyes
Alcohol and cigarettes,
Good white drugs i aint done yet
I like to fuck
I like to fight
Starting shit just feels right
In the end we all just die
So along the way why not get high?
[Chorus:]
Contraband,
god I love you
Contraband,
I need you so
Contraband,
I wanna hold ya
Contraband,
lets fuckin' go
Contraband,
gonna take you to the show
Some may say ive lost my mind
Out of control but i feel fine
As long as theres still drugs to do
Beers to drink
Girls to screw
Smokin' crack
With transients
In a park somehow makes sense
See ya in rehab,
you stupid fuck
That' all for now so lets go get drunk
[Chorus]
Contraband,
god I love you
Contraband,
I need you so
Contraband,
I wanna hold ya
Contraband,
lets fuckin' go
Contraband,
Still awake on a winters day
Skies are gray and they're cold
Smoke signals from my last cigarette
Lets me know that it's finally getting old
Everybody hates me for the night before
The man you saw wasn't me
And now there's blood upon the bathroom floor
I've got a disease
Wait a while
All I need is a friend
Come on, stay a while
Won't you please understand
Understand?
I'm fucked up with nothing ahead but the end
I know that I'll never get sober
And I'm fed up with this miserable life after death
I know that I've taken my last breath
Memories of how it used to be
Painted thick on my walls
Cold illusions pumping through my veins
Felt them there but I didn't hear them call
Washed away all my darkest fears
Shoved them down to my soul
I keep them aged like a vintage wine
I'm sure they'll come out when it's ready to go
Wait a while
All I need is a friend
Come on, stay a while
Won't you please understand
Understand?
I'm fucked up with nothing ahead but the end
I know that I'll never get sober
And I'm fed up with this miserable life after death
I know that I've taken
I'm fucked up with nothing ahead but the end
I know that I'll never get sober
And I'm fed up with this miserable life after death
I know that I've taken my last breath
My last breath
My last breath
The fine life is a beautiful thing
The caviar and the diamond rings
It goes all night
I see the writing on the wall
The bright lights of a big soirée
The satin glows and the tango sways
It goes all night
I see the writing on the wall
As for me I like a dark smoky bar
A shot of whiskey and a cheap cigar
It goes all night
I see the writing on the wall
Another quarter and the jukebox cries
I love the sound as the record sighs
It goes all night
I see the writing on the wall
No necesito la vida rica
Estoy contento contigo
'Cause in the end we all go the same place, yeah
And I'll be happy with what I know
I like the girls that go cha cha cha
And when the band is playing wah wah wah
It goes all night
I see the writing on the wall
Another drink and we'll all be fine
A little music and we start to shine
It goes all night
I see the writing on the wall
No necesito la vida rica
Estoy contento contigo
'Cause in the end we all go the same place, yeah
going out on friday night
drinking with your good friends
work for the man
do the best you can
to make it to the weekend
everybody's coming out
we're gonna have a good time
just forget all the bullshit
and everything will be fine
get to the show things start to go
and everybody's swaying
drinks in the air
and we don't care
cause the band just starting playing
guy walks by with the look in his eye
and we know what he's doing
he's just out to find about the faces he can ruin
fight fight fight
and you think its right
cause your always fuckin' wasted
you're gonna go to the punk rock show
to rearrange some faces
fight fight fight and you think its right
testosterone abuser
your gonna go to the punk rock show
but your just a fuckin' loser
don't look now
i heard a pow
and there's a girl a crying
you let the one fly
and hit her in the eye
and on the floor she's lying
your bros all thought you were pretty cool when they saw you deck her
we hit the road
we had ten hours left on our drive
level of sanity going out the window
who knows what lays ahead
and all i see is the endless headlights flying away
you're sick of me ???
i'm sick of you
this one through
to turn around to walk away
you'll be leaving
but i'll be here to stay
one way to go
the direction undetermined
rand mcnally goes flying out the window
with empty bottles and broken spirits
the endless headlights are flying away
when i was younger
i leapt at the chance
now that i'm older i wonder
if i had it to do all over again
would i do anything different
way too much time
and bullshit on my mind
i feel like i'm fallinf to pieces
the smoke surrounds your head
you don't wanna be there
oh lemme tell ya bout 2 guys i know
ol' crew cut chuck an afro joe
well crew cut sang and joe played sax
collectin their money in a hat
well the rent was due and the food was gone
ol' crew cut knew it was time to move on
well they packed their bags
and they left town
doing their damndest
to make new ground
well they packed their bongs
and they smoked mass
doing their damndest
to kick some fuckin ass
well their first gig was wild and rough
bunch of rowdy punks thinkin they were tough
fights broke out out and folks got mad
then crew cut chuck and joe looked bad
crew cut chuck thought they'd kick some ass
nearly threw a man through glass
well that was it/that and they could not stay
that's me staring out my window
different man than i was before
i was scared with no hesitation
kept me running for the door
when i spoke
well my words fell away yeah
into something that i can't deny
i was confronted by a nasty reputation ???
a never ending circle washed me up to see the lie
in my mind that was ever so elusive
hidden deep beneath a plastic shine
i had to wonder if i'd ever really figure out
what it was i was trying to find
so along was i ever thinking
did i ever really understand
i was covered by a wave of confusion
showing in my shaking hands tonight
i was in a situation
did i wanna just take control or run
but i never checked my opinion
still just laying silent in the sun
days away
the one mistake that i made
days away
if i had a dollar for every time she was mad
i'd buy california
invite my friends and i'd make it my pad
if i had a peso for every time she said:
"wake up you lazy pile and get our ass up out of my bed"
i'd buy a private plane and fly around the world
eat at all the best restaurants and hang out with hot girls
but i know i'm stuck with you
and there's nothing i can do
so i'll take your hand
and say
stay with me
stay with me
please stay with me girl
i know you wanna slap my face
but please
stay with me girl
girl i know its all my fault
and i'm just a dirt bag
i hope you can forgive and forget
so we can so shag
cause i know i'm stuck with you
and there's nothing i can do
so i'll take your hand and say
stay with me
stay with me
please stay with me girl
i know you wanna kick my ass
but please
stay with me girl
stay with me
stay with me
please stay with me girl
you're the one with the pretty face
i come around but i dont see ya
its kinda hard when your already gone
my eyes are numb
bloodshot and heavy
the voices silent but approaching me soon
hes got your name
hes got your number
just one more slip and he'll be dragging you on
i feel the pain
oh i see the answer
the voices ring out like the siren of song
youre gone when you stop believing
when its hard to sleep at the end of the day
move on, dont try to get even
looking hard just to find a new end
cause its hard to die
when your already dead
just when cant quite remember
just when i cant quite recall
the day we met upon a cold december
goleta goleta not the place i wanna be
goleta goleta split twins both have hiv
goleta goleta not the place i wanna be
everybody's gotta come see
pick it up!
put it down!
goleta goleta not the place i wanna be
goleta goleta this is o so sticky whip
goleta goleta not the place i wanna be
im so alone
i don't have no home
so when you gonna bring your sweet love
on home to me
red mary come from the ground
she take away everything
she make everybody feel high
she let me down
i said hoooooooooo nanana etc.
well you can live you life except for the bomb
when you feel that nothings wrong
and tell the ones you love they should
stop giving you nicknames
like fanny or lenny
so you got a lot of problems to work out, man
let me tell you, i've read this book before
and in the end the good guys die
so get up, get up
get out of you chair
hold your head up high
and cut your hair
i know what your thinking but you just have to do it
whatever makes you happy get right to it
so you think you've really got it made
don't you understand that there is much more at stake
how long do you think you can live like this?
well there is only one thing left to do
step back, reflect and think things through
compare yourself to me, im just like you
days come in on me
like monsters of my drug abuse
and all i wanna do is have
some fun
well im walking down the streets of life
i don't know where to go
which way do i turn i don't really know
mass confusion fills my mind and everything hurts
days come in on me
like monsters of my drug abuse
and all i wanna do is have
Let's go!
Lost sight of all you dreamed of
the force that swept you away
the leaves were changing and the tree was rearranging
the season had swallowed the day
you want everything
unfair it may seem
your eyes have been closed for so long
we tried to make the break
what about give and take
some times will come when you are wrong
I sense the new day has fallen
I see the trouble in your eyes
the tree will fall
I'm not crying at all it's no suprise...
Your jaded eyes
I hope you found the road you wanted
I could not find the words to say
the lies were spoken and the promises broken
a wave of illusion dismay
you want everything
unfair it may seem your will has been gone for so long
we tried to make a break
ive got this thing about you now
i tried to understand
so baby let me show you how
you changed my life the day you showed up at my door
ive got this notion in my head
if i go forward then i jump back again into my routine of misery
i try harder just to get along today
cant see things through
got just one chance left
and im barely hangin on
what can i do
when im with you
it's all i got
my forbidden pleasure and a life of smoking pot
it's who i am and i cant change
the stops have been removed
but then our lives are still the same again
thats who i am
our days on earth are short i know
with a little new direction
i can find out where to go
and maybe when i get there
baby ill see you
oh mia just wanna see ya
cause your my left footed girl
oh baby
just dont say maybe
I feel the heat, a fire that burns
Deep in my soul as this hell ride returns
No one around to hear me cry out
Open my mouth but I can't make a sound
I feel the weight of the world sometimes
Hanging on my head, whoa
Look for the light at the end of this tunnel once again
I'm talking 'bout the right state of
The right state of
The right state of your mind
[x2]
Fear for the worst, I can't catch my breath
My heart beats to the sound of unrest
Pulse racing high, my thoughts are so low
Reach out my hand but there's no one to hold
We walk alone through this strange life
It can be so cold sometimes, whoa
Just close my eyes and remember
If you search you just might find
I'm talking 'bout the right state of
The right state of
The right state of your mind
[x2]
I feel the weight of the world sometimes
Hanging on my head, whoa
Look for the light at the end of this tunnel once again
I'm talking 'bout the right state of
The right state of
The right state of your mind
well approximation of the situation tends to bend
when you have too much to drink
and you piss off your friends
you cant talk,
and you cant walk,
and you dont know you're name,
you find yourself attracted to a very ugly dame,
the booze just kills your conscience
and your dick is in your hand
i go to sleep so alone noone by my side to call it their home the emptiness is killin' me now you tell me that you're leaving how can i let it be i want to be the only one for you would you please just tell me what to do my girlfriend lives inside my head my girlfriend lives inside my head i go to sleep so alone noone by my side to call it their home the emptiness is killin' me now you tell me that you're leaving how can i let it be i want to be the only one for you won't you please just tell me what to do my girlfriend lives inside my head my girlfriend lives inside my head lives inside my head
take a bottle, you drink it down
your eyes are burning red your gonna end up in the ground
now you're fallen
you can't hold on
you got no hope you're fucking on dope
your dreams are all but gone
you do not seem to care it makes no sense to me
everytime you try to take a look
you still can't see the you've monster you've become
the fucked up things you've done
you've done neurotic paranoia are you having fun?
you ain't going nowhere you got nowhere
you ain't got no chance to see
there's no way home
(you're gonna hear me?)
i know it's hard to live that way
i know it's hard to break the daily chain
its in you head pshychosomatic
wake up one day you're an addict
you ain't going nowhere
you got no chance to see
why do you make this sound so difficult to say
you follow me around
you will not go away
you get into my car and you expect a ride,
i wanna go into a hole and hide
oh what can we do when we think of you
you call me in the morning
and you get me out of bed
i can not get your ugly face out of my head
you are not a woman
you are just a little girl
you're nowhere near
you're nowhere near the real world
oh no
oh what can we do when we think of you
what we do when we think of you!
why can't have a real woman
someone to watch over me
someone to sat by my side when im sleeping
i dont want anymore little girls coming around no more
i just want a real woman
not a whore
give me your heart
i just might break it
give me your chance
i'm gonna take it
give me chance
you throw me your love,
you give me what you've got
There’s a devil outside of your window and it’s waiting for a piece of you
And you’re just so beaten down these days there’s nothing that you can do
Well as soon as the sun will shine again while the night just begs for more
Your purgatory waits for you when you walk outside that door
While the dead pasts by on the sidewalk as hollow as they come
And I cannot see a sign of light when cornered where they’re from
When they seem so unaffected by these streets that flow with pain
There’s no love on our way and I know I feel the same
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
There’s an angel next door in the ballroom arms open full of grace
Well I did detect strong spirits there in my glass I found the same
Well the world don’t seem so bad no more when you’re basking in her light
For a moment we are living while the dead can’t stay outside
Well I’m just hooked on a feeling I’m flying on the wings of escape
While the neon lights protect me while reality’s kept at bay
Well I hope to just don’t matter when there’s angels in your eyes
I belong and feel needed in a world that’s filled with lies
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
Lay your head down
there is a man just a prick just looking at me wanting to set my soul free said i'll follow my own mistakes and not buy your fucked up religion the bible is the way you spread your hate the rich look good and hear fine things misions in the cold make sense when i get finished through and through stop open your eyes! stop open your eyes! just when i stop and wonder why, how birds can fly why can't i? no more hesitation let's start the penetration if not then i'll go home come on punks now gather round, come look at our pretty town all those pigs they piff and slag busting kids for tresspessing just passed here, won't go to jail singing songs while passing our bail they roped me up and took my savings fuck them up they are just...pigs stop open your eyes! stop when i stop and wonder why, how birds can fly why can't i? no more hesitation let's start the penetration if not then i'll go home
in a world where logic and proportion dies
the dark side laughing as it lights the night
with its evil eyes
it comes around when you are least expecting it to strike
it grabs you by the neck
and takes your soul with all its might
the voices haunting me
the fear is here come around and see
no slumber anymore
demons in disguise
knocking at my door
a small piece of advice...
ignore!
my head is hurting
my eyes are growing cold
the strength increases
when it fired a shot into its hold
the burning version of a man whose lost his will to live
the fight is over
I feel like I'm running in place
Sometimes I just need a little room to breathe
And I can't run for cover or seek from
Another every little thing I need
I said you're there for the good times for the bad times
And for the mid tempo days
But there is nothing that I've been through yet
Where the voice inside of me didn't say
[Chorus:]
Without you
Without you
There is nothing to hold on to
And the morning won't come
Without you
I know there's days when
I don't try hard enough for you girl
And every moment I can't always be there
And your love that I've been stealing well
I hope you know I'm feeling
That through all of this I really care
I said I move to the left side
And to the right side
Or anyway that you choose
Because the way that you make me feel
You know I never want to lose
[Chorus]
Oh when I wake up in the morning baby
And I see you lying next to me
There ain't nothing in the world going to take away my
Pain and come and set me free
Layin' awake again and I don't know what's happening
I'm setting sail on unknown seas
And I'm haunted by insecurities
I'm standing on the edge of dream
Colliding with the light of this real life scene
And I don't feel a thing until the pain comes
And when it's all said and done would I just cut and run
Sometimes I'm so numb I don't know
If it happened tonight would I stand and fight
Or would I just let go
[Chorus:]
Whatcha gonna do when it's on you boy
Whatcha gonna say when it's no no more
Whatcha really gonna do when it's all through boy
Whatcha gonna say when it's over now
Maybe it's the time of the year
But I don't feel my soul shine
Locked up inside and floating on the cheap wine
But there's a smell in the air
And I swear something's there
Blowing in on a California night
So if it's all gone and I can't go on
Well I'm sure as hell not ready to die
I mix it up I wash It down now
I guess it's all I ever learned to do when I'm with you
last chance second nature
I see a road that leads right to your door. do I want more?
now I'm hearin everybody talk and then I ask myself
what exactly am I supposed to do?
yes I'm leavin
yes I'm leavin you behind
I'm still believing
what we had was really never mine
lookin back a blank expression
penetrated silence into me
and I'm startin to bleed
what do I need?
who do I talk to?
confidence is long since passed away
but I'm here to say
now I see the people walk by (I watch them pass)
coroded minor notes
playin in the back end of my mind
yes I'm leavin
yes I'm leavin you behind
I'm still believing
Woke up this morning at the end of another bottle I don’t know what’s really going on
My hands are shaking my heads reminding me that last night I must of have had some fun
I've been here so many times you get used to the pain
But I don’t want to play these self destructive games, once again I will say
Today will be the day
Today I'm gonna change
Locked inside another damn day wonderin' just how I’m gonna turn my life around
Throw me a rope somethin’ to save me cause I’m sailing on a ship that’s goin' down
So lift me off my feet and hang me up to dry (whoa-a-o)
Nothing around the clock but I’ll give it one more try
Today will be the day
Today I’m gonna change
Today will be the day that I’ll give it up;
I’ll just give in, and let a brand new life begin
It’s getting late and I see the lines there, I’ll be tempted once again
Shining bright like a thousand little lights
All just beggin' me to come on in for one It’s not gonna kill me
Today will be the day
Today I’m gonna change
Today will be the day
Today I’m gonna change
Today will be the day
I see your face your crimson eyes
Your sultry sin that devilish grin reflected in your guise
And with a hesitant hand I will taste it if I can
Not knowing what it takes to be a man
So play on just play on
I've seen it all before so count me in
I hope this night justifies to let go of all I hide
Release my inhibitions in your sin
Well it's 1 2 3 you the world and me
Question what's it supposed to mean
Well like it or not this crazy life is all we got
Objective has yet to be seen
So take me out give me your energy
From the inside and just break me down
Wake me up and take my memory
It's mutiny all around these tired bones I'm coming home
We're lost again by new design
So wrap me up and fill my cup with sedatives and wine
I don't know what we have created
But now we're inundated
With all that's wrong so lets enjoy the ride
There's something in the way you move me
Well I've been standing here for oh so long
I get so tired of the same old songs of change
Who's changing
My time's been paid sure as hell ain't free
But inspiration is sold separately through these beer
Soaked tears
Where's the life I wanted
Where's the life I wanted
Where's the life they promised me
witty banter
three lonely brothers from santa nez bought themselves some instruments o, they thought up a name and learned to play when they the heard the pathetic club songs they wrote more, possibly 24 but i dunno maybe less i said they called into their local pretty girls are mine but they drink shitty coffe dribbling down my chin but there i'll find the titty and tell me what i told you twice this is shiittty one named chuck, one named ed one named todd but he wasnt that bad because he was the drummer in this great rock n roll band i know a lot of people thought they're shit but hey man, what if they get hit? yeah, that'll put santa nez on the map well ed he did it lax all over molly's tits [chuck fucks up and forgets the words]
don't let you know i'll do ya no good
while ya go down that stronghold like ya know ya should
living up in a cloud your finalizing all your pain
the pressure building all around and it calls your name
wake up in the morning the sun shining on my face
got to give thanks to the heavens for this beautiful place
i know i know my responsibility
i know i know we need this shelter for me
i climb up to the mountain
i shout out to the sky
you can have my body
but the leapoardskin tights...
can't fight the feeling
when it calls your name
can't fight the feeling
early come one winters morning
i packed my bags and said goodbye
i knew my mind was made up
and then she cried and asked me why
i had run
i heard the world calling my name
had to find a better place
had to take a chance and get away
wake up to a different point of view
look to my better half
but i dont see you
5000 miles away
i left a life of ignorance
i did not understand
but to me it makes more sense
our lives go on
while we procrastinate
feeling okay
watching as the blue skies turn to gray
got nothing to say
later on a new spring morning
i felt my strength come back around
i knew id come full circle
left with the wisdom that i found
i had to run
i heard my home calling my name
back to a better place
back to somewhere i knew i could stay
watch days go by
while we procrastinate
feeling okay
funny how it all turns out
when you start to try
i dont know where to run
i see that place in front of you
the things i thought were not true
i see the fires burning you
we fight alone up in a covert operation
wade through the litigation
from the dark side of the line
look alive stand tall now do not reveal your secrets
generations of achievements shall not be left behind
i never knew there was a hidden source of power
the ancients built this tower
that we all must keep alive
it's the same alliance
that brought us to this notion
like the movement in the ocean
all directions we will strive
i hear you
you feel me
a force that's so strong we will always see
i need you
i bleed you
to a world that's far from free
what do you think of me
do you really want to see a piece of me that I hide
something that's hard to find
what's behind your smile
is it really worth my while
what's beneath your ton-bed skin open up and let me in
do you really want to feel something that is so unreal
do you really want to be the one and only one for me
when we go to sleep tonight
i'll have different goals in sight
tell you what you want to hear
have another drink my dear
i'm not going to try to hurt you
i'll be honest kind and true
i'll take you out and treat you right
like a decent man would do
now i got you in my grasp do not fear my checkered past
have you now begun to see this diabolic side of me
in your mind I'm always there I guess
you thought I really cared now it's time to say goodbye
you bit the hook
believed the lie
i'm not going to try to hurt you I'll be honest kind and true
i'll take you out and treat you right like a decent man would do
gonna modify my behavior to make you think I'm your savior
now that I'm inside your head
i'm gonna use you
probably abuse you
should have listened to what your mom said
i'm not going to try to hurt you
i'll be honest kind and true
i'll take you out and treat you right
like a decent man would do
she bought herself a diamond ring
before the evening show
a ninety dollar bracelet
on daddy's visa gold
short black skirts on warm days
with her black socks to her knees
now she's wearing corduroy
instead of bongo jeans
she's a preppie girl
who rules the fashion world
she's a preppie girl
makes me wanna hurl
fucking preppie girl
walks to church on sunday
with her bottle in her hand
wishing she was a rebel
who could terrorise the land
whose that standing so close to her
holding her preppie hand
maybe it is a running back
or just a preppie man
she's a preppie girl
who rules the fashion world
she's a preppie girl
makes me wanna hurl
fucking preppie girl
she's got a senior boyfriend
now that bitch is just fifteen
will she lose
will she lose
will she lose
her virginity
well he takes her out on prom night
and he shows her a good time
will he be in her pants by nine?
she's a preppie girl
who rules the fashion world
she's a preppie girl
makes me wanna hurl
fucking preppie girl
to you we wish the best of luck
in your oh so preppie life
and if you play your cards right
...2, 3, skank!
well they follow us around
wherever we may go
it feels like there's no freedom
not even in our homes
from the polyester khakis
they were driving me insane
the reason why i drink
it took away the pain

where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
i tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
whatever happened to our love?
i wish i understood
it used to be so nice, it used to be so good
so when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
s. o. s.
the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
s. o. s.
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
though i try how can i carry on?
you seem so far away though you are standing near
you made me feel alive, but something died i fear
i really tried to make it out
i wish i understood
what happened to our love, it used to be so good
so when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
s. o. s.
the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
s. o. s.
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
though i try how can i carry on?
so when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
s. o. s.
and the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
s. o. s.
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
though i try how can i carry on?
when you're gone
how can i even try to go on?
when you're gone
take a walk outside it's a nice day for a drive automotivation
the air is getting clear and the getting near for us to roll
gotta watch my style cause god it's almost over
got a little more room to try it hopefully
i've walked this earth for twenty years and now my mind is floating...out to sea
gonna hit the van man you just don't understand total aggravation
rolling down the highway doing ninety going my way in control
gotta watch those corners in the stretch of danger
a problem could arise eventually
i've walked this earth for twenty years and now my mind is floating....out to sea
every time I look into the north wind
i can't find meaning just a rhyme
i don't know but I've been told that good things come with time...
Down Hearted man where do you come from
You're troubled by the world and your situation
How can you justify what's so clear in your eyes
The operator is gone
Through all your contemplation you still don't understand
That the plight of your life was built by your own hands
How can you navigate the maze in your medicated haze
While the operator is gone
[Chorus:]
You've got the cure for your disease growing in your backyard, whoa
You've got the answers that you need right up in your backyard, whoa
Downtrodden man how do you feel right
You complicate it through your western made sight
How can you justify what's so clear in your eyes
That you don't wanna go on
Through all your contemplation you haven't found a way
To your own salvation the start of a new day
I know you feel the pain as you walk alone
And you just wanna go home
[Chorus]
So Think of your true self, break it down
Remember there's still hope that can be found
Hold on to the dream that once was so clear
And let go of your fear
Realize that this is one train you can't get off
Your dependency grows as your mind gets soft
Unlock the doors and let your soul back in
And wake up wake up wake up
[Chorus]
You got the cure, you got the cure, you got the cure,
You got the cure, you got the cure, you got the cure
you did me over
played me to the end
you took everything
i had no feelings left to spend
you're not a friend
you're just a fiend
it's time I opened my eyes to set
you my darling
don't deserve my sympathy
you broke my heart
spit on grandma's grave
tore my life apart
never left the same
before you waste more of my time
let me give you little piece of my mind...
i'm sending you down the road & i'll be fine...
ruhibonol
you gave it to me
i woke up in a tub of ice
a note & no kidney
you soiled my sheets
you skinned my cat
you stole my teeth
how can you call this land we walk on free
two centuries of deception
a system put in place
dollars bear their face
equal rights those who can afford to pay
content to believe what they say
they say democracy
i scream a scam
big bucks from big business buy uncle sam
no conspiracy it's apathy
we the people can't seem to just open our eyes
content to believe all their lies
hey they gotta go
how can we take back what was ours
you gotta know
what they are doing to you
kids die for their country
but they can't buy beer
they'll outlaw what's natural
motive unclear laws are put into place
their morals in my face
but we got an ace up our sleeve
opression plants rebellion's seed
now the time has come
to say fuck what they've said what they've done
yeah we're young and dumb
but as asume
i know exactly where youve been
but i dont fear you
i know its harder to give in
but i dont hear you
i feel a change
somethings in the air its all around my head
i know you try
to put the blame on me
i throw it back instead
so here we go again kickin it with friends
burn another joint and get right to the point
falling on my own
got no place to go
wait for me outside
ill take you for a ride
in my life
on the b side
ill never leave
its just the place for me
a home away from home
another down a couple more to go
the only way ive known
dont wait for me
ill meet you there
if im not with you
i dont care
when everything just goes your way
and its supposed to stop you
So come on down and try your hand at the oldest game in town
Pull up a chair and don't be scared, youve got to play it round by round
Spin the wheel and take a hit it doesnt matter what you chose
Sou can sink your battle ship but theres a good chance you will loose
A little lady walking down the street
And she was born in a good and nice town
You think youve got what it takes to be her man
So you try about and ask a lady if she would like to meet
Maybe this time things will go your way
Your never going to win unless you play
Break down and take the chances, nevermind the circumstances
Break down and keep on playing, roll the dice and bet it all, put the quater in and make the call
When the odds are bad, your luck is down and you don't feel much like playing
Think about the fun you had and listent what I'm saying
You could spend your life inside and never had no fun
Maybe things this time will go your way
You never gunna win unless you play
Breakdown and take the chances, nevermind the circumstances
Breakdown keep on playing, roll the dice and bet it all
Breakdown and take the chances, nevermind the circumstances
Breakdown keep on playing, roll the dice and bet it all, put a quater in and make the call
You got to breakdown (whoaa)
Monkeys
watch out for them monkeys
those crazy big guys drinking downtown
Monkeys
watch out for them monkeys
They'll knock you right off your feet onto the ground
They'll take pleasure being hormonally insane
Rolling away with my good intentions
Trying to go with my mind
Said I'm walking the line
Flying away with my same desire, yeah
Oh, I'm trying to get to the heart of what's bringing me down
Moving alone I feed the fire
And with the temptation all around just laughing at me
So I try my hardest to keep my hands clean
And I stop from looking for the things that I can't find
If I'm ever gonna walk the line
So let me take you back to the start
When you gave me a piece of your heart
And I will do my best, oh yeah I'll do my best
Gonna make it all right now
Cause gone is the day when I would wander
When I would wander through the night with the light on me
So I try my hardest to keep my hands clean
And I stop from looking for the things that I can't find
If I'm ever gonna walk the line
To your emotions
(I walk the line)
To your desire
(I walk the line)
For our devotion is gonna feed the fire
I hear the rumor mill is turning
To try and stop it is a waste of time
Who fucked who will be on the front page
The local air is thick with painted lies
Truth in disguise
When you go out, they'll be watching
Eyes on you
I feel them all around
Come tomorrow and they'll all start talking
In this little town
Now watch me drown
Accusations and assumptions
Will fill you up and start to cloud your mind
The room is filled with stagnant conversation
I see right through it with discerning eyes
Beyond the lies
When you go out, they'll be watching
Eyes on you
I feel them all around
Come tomorrow and they'll all start talking
In this little town
Now watch me drown
When we first where, things where right on track.
Listen a while and I'm gonna take you back.
Back to the days when you where mine.
We would away and everything would be fine.
So where is your heart where is your soul.
Tell me where did go.
All of the time you've been away oh I want to know.
Are you gonna change your ways darling.
Are you gonna change your ways.
(tell me)
Are you gonna change your ways darling.
Are you gonna change your ways.
Are you gonna change your ways darling.
Are you gonna change your ways.
Sat by the water side.
Oh where we used to hide.
(ohhhh)
All in good faith I think of you.
Crossing my mind only when I want you to.
I know it's hard and I must resist.
Cause in an other lifetime maybe we'd exist.
So where is your heart where is your soul.
Tell me where did go.
All of the time you've been away oh I want to know.
Are you gonna change your ways darling.
Are you gonna change your ways.
(tell me)
Are you gonna change your ways darling.
Are you gonna change your ways.
Are you gonna change your ways darling.
Are you gonna change your ways.
Down by the water side.
Oh where we used to hide.
Sat by the water side.
Watching the waves go high.
When you leave
Shut the door
Don't wanna to talk about it anymore
When you're gone
Don't forget to leave the light on
When you go
Please say goodbye to me
Will I go alone
Or will you stand by me
And follow your convictions
You don't try when you know how
Five years to this day
And still you walked away
And left me here cold, blinded
I hear you but I can't make out the words
When you leave
Shut the door
Don't wanna want to talk about it anymore
When you're gone
Don't forget to leave the light on
When you go
Please say goodbye to me
How can you see it through
Or will you turn your head on
Everything we stood for
The dreams that we once shared
And now we turn the page
Another day goes by
We move in new directions
Still hear you but I can't make out the words
When you leave
Shut the door
Don't want to talk about it anymore
When you're gone
Don't forget to leave the light on
When you go
I heard you call my name
but now it's not the same
when i hear your voice half way across the country
locked up in the van
you'll never understand
this hole inside me
I have got responsibilities you have got them too
I'm trying but what am I supposed to do
every time i drift off in your blue eyes thinking
about the angels voice on the phone
I get that sinking feeling I'm never going home
sometimes I let myself get so down I can barely hold my head up to say
I'm alive and well and I'm coming home someday
I'm on the outside looking in at what you said to me
your words soft spoken in dream
another night I saw your face you smiled at me
just an illusion it may seem...
get it out of my head
and so I'm stranded here
and there's so much more to fear but i know it will be over someday
everytime i think about your soft smile dreaming about the girl i needed to see
i feel a bit uneasy
the dark is upon me
sometimes i myself be afraid if the next days going to fall
then i tell myself it's okay
and then looking in at what you said to me
your soft spoken in a dream
another night alone I saw your face
you smiled at me
just an illusion it may seem...
Well the first time that I went out on my own
I was a young man almost 17 right down to the day
Well i packed up all my things
Grabbed my bag and kissed my mother
And I told her that I'd be back someday
So I jumped into the back of and eighteen-wheeler head north
Destination didn't even ask
With the wisdom that my father gave me
Ringing in my head so clearly
"Son this world's gonna kick you in the ass"
Chorus:
I wanna go there and I'm not scared
Our time's just begun, oh yeah
Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Wanna have some fun
Now looking back on all the days gone by
I sit and wonder what it would be like if I'd never went away
Would I see the world the way I do
The memories that brought me to
This place that I now call my home today
(chorus)
Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Wanna have some fun
So beat my head (beat my head)
When I feel the whole world falls apart
In the end I'll be alright
Well the first time that I went out on my own
I was a young man almost 17 right down to the day
Well i packed up all my things
Grabbed my bag and kissed my mother
And I told her that I'd be back someday
(chorus)
Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Look in your eyes
Wanna be inside
Feel like a dog that's been left out in the rain
Where it's cold
Gotta find my way back
I feel you burning and I want to go home
Where it's warm inside
I need your touch
You're like a siren
Temptation pulls me closer
I can't resist
So let me in now
Cause I've been waiting
Any longer and I'm gonna explode
So tell me that you want it
So many things I need to know
You can't hide your secrets
And nothing's sacred
When we're here all alone
Tell me that you like it slow
You've let me in now
It's where I want to stay
You're wrapped around me
And I'll never escape
From these games we play
Won't you stay
Our lives will change
And we'll both get dizzy
I need your touch
You're like a siren
Temptation pulls me closer
I can't resist
So let me in now
Cause I've been waiting
[Originally by Skid Row]
Since I was born, they couldn't hold me down.
Another misfit kid, in another burned-out town.
I never played by the rules, I never really cared.
My nasty reputation takes me everywhere.
I look and see it's not only me,
So many others have stood where I stand,
We are the young so raise your hands.
They call us problem child,
We spend our lives on trial,
We walk an endless mile,
We are the youth gone wild.
We stand and we won't fall,
We're one and one for all,
The writing's on the wall,
We are the youth gone wild.
Boss screamin' in my ear 'bout who I'm supposed to be.
"in a 3-piece Wall Street smile and son you'll look just like me."
Well I said "Hey man, there's something that you oughta know.
Park Avenue leads to Skid Row."
I look and see it's not only me,
We're standin' tall, ain't never a doubt,
We are the young, so shout it out!
They call us problem child,
We spend our lives on trial,
We walk an endless mile,
We are the youth gone wild.
We stand and we won't fall,
We're one and one for all,
The writing's on the wall,
We are the youth gone wild.
lemme hear ya get wild!
They call us problem child,
We spend our lives on trial,
We walk an endless mile,
We are the youth gone wild.
We stand and we won't fall,
We're one and one for all,
The writing's on the wall,
We are the youth gone wild!
Whoa whoa whoa
We are the youth gone wild!
Whoa whoa whoa
We are the youth gone wild!
Yeah yeah yeah

Whoa whoa whoa

i took a walk through your world today
nice place to visit but i wouldn't want to stay
i want to see how other people live
remote control and not a thought to give
we're going to get up
we're going to get even
we'll start to worry when the cynics start believing
after visiting
i'm sure i'll feel fine
i'll be placated by the things in my mind
locked on the inside while i'm out here running free
i might be crazy but at least it's really me
but i won't believe what they say
won't ever take
what they gave away
i won't negate
call me insane
i might be crazy but at least i won't play their fuckin game
i took a walk through your world today
nice place to visit but i wouldn't want to stay
i want to see how other people get by
sense of security by living a lie
we're going to get up
we're going to get even
we'll start to worry when the cynics start believing
but i won't believe what they say
won't ever take
what they gave away
i won't negate
call me insane
i might be crazy but at least i won't play their fuckin game
were gonna get up
were gonna get even
we'll start to worry when the cynics start believing
were gonna get up
were gonna get even
when you think that you know someone
they claim to be your friend
a blackened wick is all that remains
when the verdict has been sent
with no legs left to stand on
no truth to call your own
like a tired soldier slowly dying
the gun that fired the shot was your own
now i see you lying in the bed you chose to make
backstabber
hows it feel now to live the life
i've always known was fake
trying harder just to realize
what the hell was goin on
i saw you in the shadows
dont you know im strong?
ive got my own intuitions
ive got my own beliefs
and when you try to toy with nature
youll be falling with the leaves
and now its all beginning
sail the ship you chose to build
you wont see me crying
washed my hands clean
and now i see you lying in the bed you chose to make
backstabber
hows it feel now to live the life
What is the world that we see
I think evolution is at the end of it's tree today
Where do we go from here
Without fear without harmony
What's left to say (honestly) the games we play
When our president can't even read
Riot my hands in the air
Riot we don't fucking care
This empire's crumbling down
Greed of the nations will burn to the ground again
But will we understand
Someday someone will make you cry yeah, yeah
Then you’ll gonna have tear drops in your eyes no, no
So go ahead and have your fun girl
Don’t you know I'm still in love with you girl
Go ahead and have yourself a ball
You’re riding for a fall (watch it)
Someday somebody will break your heart
(You got to look for your judgment as I would tell ya)
Then you’ll gonna wish that we had never part
(You're gonna wish that we never part cause I was saying)
So go ahead and have your fun girl
(Have a fun as I would tell ya)
Don’t you know I’m still in love with you girl
Go ahead (Go ahead and) and have yourself a ball
You’re riding for a fall
You’re riding for a fall
(Yes black and white Mad Caddies have come to tell ya)
(You’re riding for a fall)
(Yeah)
So go ahead and have your fun girl
(Go ahead and have your fun)
Don’t you know I’m still in love with you girl
Go ahead and have yourself a ball
You’re riding for a fall
You’re riding for a fall
(Make you cry baby girl)
Yeah, yeah, no, no, no
You’re riding for a fall all alone say
(Tear drops in your eye as I was saying)
Yeah you’re riding; I said you’re riding for a fall
(You’re riding for a fall)
You’re riding for a fall
(Riding, riding, riding, riding, them girls got ya riding, riding for a fall)
(Riding for a fall)
You’re riding for a fall
(Riding for a fall, riding for a fall)
You’re riding for a fall
(Riding for a fall)
(Riding for a fall, riding for a fall, riding for a fall)
(You’re riding for a fall)
(Riding for a fall, riding for a fall, riding for a fall)
Walking through the badlands taking in the scenery
The beasts are salivating to the fresh scent of the week
They're moving in with a penetrating grin
Sliding through your backdoor
While your babies are asleep
We're walking blind with wool over our eyes
Now if we don't think about it will it go away
Because they're taking what they want not what they need
Hang us out to dry so the wolves can feed
You can see it in their eyes filled up with greed
And we are all left sucking at the end of this pyramid scheme
Running through this nightmare but I'm wide awake
I hear the footsteps in the dark
And it's more than I can take
They're rising up from the depths to fill their cup
Never to the top because it never is enough
They want it all no matter what the cost is
another starry night
I lay down by the evening fire
take a look back at today
down to the waters edge
i let myself fall back in
the waves will wash it away
another year is gone
and i know it's been so long
i'm still around
and it's okay
my body's aching
the time it's taking
don't believe I've got another chance
to say I'm gonna make it today
i walk back slowly to the sand
and lay my head down
thinking about what there is to do
the night sky high above the land
is keeping me safe
There's something different in the world today
Looking for the words but I can't explain
I feel the worst is drawing near, feeding on our fear
Another cry from a broken home
Another soul that will walk alone
I said just one more life that will be swept away
And this is the price we pay
[Chorus:]
From the hills of California to the streets of Berlin
To the clubs in London town
Tell me where have our souls have gone
And where can they be found
All the way to Venezuela down to Sao Paulo
Then back up to Montreal
Tell me where have our souls gone
And where they can be found... Ey!
Picked up the paper and I read this morning
Another twenty people dead no warning
Bombs go off and ignite the hate globally
It perpetuates the air is thick and the skies are burning
As the war machine keeps on turning
Just one more life that will be swept away
And this is the price we pay
[Chorus]
(Waoooh)
(Ooooh, Ooohoooh)
We drop a rhythm so we feel alright
Open our minds so we let in the light
I wanna feel love I wanna feel love I want to feel it tonight
We keep it moving so we don't get lost
Release the pressure so our our hearts don't pop
Keep looking forward to a brand new day
Where we don't have to say
[Chorus]
(Won't you tell me, won't you tell me this time
well grade school never meant that much to me
i started smokin at the age of 13
back of the class thats where wed hang around
but they could not bring us down
and now theyre on the run
little johnnys mad and hes got a gun
just kids having fun
you cant deny
no alibi
i saw you back when you were just like them
i know its true
and we all fall down together
ashes to ashes as we burn this fucker down
on the merry go round the kids are learning
yeah theres something wrong at the playground.
well high school was just a holding cell for me
with no freedom as we learn democracy
spent most of my days in the back lot
a cherry burning bright but a future thats not
and now were on the run
try not to think a lot and just keep on having fun
no responsibility
you cant deny
no alibi
you were just like them i saw you back then
Silently approaching creeping through the night
Shadows below the radar hide from unsuspecting light
You can't see it coming but you feel it near
The eminent destruction pulls you down into the fear.
Chorus:
Now a fight has just begun
The battle is not over
You're scared it's been won.
Find the enemy (Silent) (x3)
Lying in your bed
Find the enemy
I can see the dark clouds looming up above the land
Picking up on the signals of conotations
I don't understand
They tell me things nightmares are made of
Pictures straigt from hell
Try to put it all in a bag by the wayside
But I know I will fail
(chorus)
i find myself
searching for the soul i once had
watered down the smoke inside me i've become a no-mad
there's been no body oh for sooo long now
i want me back but i just don't know how
well it's the same old story of a young boy
he's a, one filled with dreams
whoa but the fortune of reality
was a ripper adversy
if he's gonna make it
he's gonna do it on his own
well he's one strong mother fucker
he's toppled the sides alone
he will be done, before he ever understands
why is he trying, and why must he go on
when you have what you need
but not what you want boy
you aint gonna make it long
in the dark day he's dealing
but in the lights is where he stands
he's got no hope of his future
for a, his hard working hands
if he's gonna make it
he's gonna do it on his own
well he's one strong mother fucker
he's toppled the sides alone
well thats been
a narrower bridge i've seen
fucking his life up again
leaving it full of sin
cause we are the ones who give a damn
we are the ones who give a damn
if he's gonna make it
he's gonna do it on his own
well he's one strong mother fucker
well approximation of the situation tends to bend
when you have too much to drink
and you piss off your friends
you cant talk,
and you cant walk,
and you dont know you're name,
you find yourself attracted to a very ugly dame,
the booze just kills your conscience
and your dick is in your hand
and you dont know who the fuck is in your bed
poor man cry out to his god
his dying and hungry
rich man have a heart attack
worrying about his money
he alienates himself from his family
and points the blame in some other direction
the other never had no one
he only needed affection
from one end of the world
to another I hear them say
they need to find a piece of inner protection
a remedy to take their hurt away
in their on minds they failed
you see them fallen
one shot left at redemption
My mind's locked up in a world that
I don't know
The end is coming soon
I think I'll lose control
(Staring out my window and it feels fine)
Well... i'm sending all my signals
But i stiffen so im long
Said i'm sending all the signals
That i do not have a home
I said my month in up in armour
Say i really wasnt scared
Say my month in up in armour
But i do not have a way
Things are happening
So really do we ever live so fast
There's a concert
Oh but such a blast
My bags are packed in all rugged up theres one thing left to say
I'll make you take the fall then im doin it my own way
my mind's locked up in a world that
i don't know
the end is coming soon
i think i'll lose control
a re you happy working mornings
are you happy working nights
are you happy on your time off
when your high?
here we go were back again
in the same rut with the same friends
doing it like we did the year before
ya got no money got no car,
got no woman so there you are
your empty, sold out and depressed
well you can run and you can hide
from the trouble that is deep inside
your master of your own destiny and fame
things to do
gotta place to go
gotta cut the line
gotta make the next show
gotta make everything work out alright
what do we have to say for ourselves...
Drinking for a eleven,
that's just what I do,
When I'm not with you,
My heart goes to bed.
End of the bar,
That's just where I'll be,
Don't try and come find me
Cause I'm already dead
With one eye tied upon the open road,
I feel your presence and I can't let it go.
It moves so slowly as it creeps into my mind,
Steals every breath I have and leaves my heart behind
Wanna know what you're feeling if your feeling alone
I wanna hear if you still care
The last time I remember you was the last time I wasn't scared
When the nights start fading and the mornin' arrives
I wanna still feel you around
Will you creep into my head again and pick me up off the ground
Once more, tell me what you're fighting for
Gotta try gotta try for tomorrow
When you can't see through today
Gotta try, gotta try for tomorrow
When you can't see through today
There's nowhere left to stay
Sometimes I feel like I'm out here all alone
Just one in million stuck with no place left to go
Fear steps up to me with every move that I make
Following close behind my soul it wants to take
Wanna know what you're feeling if your feeling alone
I wanna hear if you still care
The last time I remember you was the last time I wasn't scared
When the nights start fading and the mornin' arrives
I wanna still feel you around
Will you creep into my head again and pick me up off the ground
Once more, tell me what you're fighting for
Gotta try gotta try for tomorrow
When you can't see through today
Gotta try, gotta try for tomorrow
When you can't see through today
There's nowhere left to stay
Whoa!
Drinking for a eleven, that's just what I do,
When I'm not with you,
how can you tell me this land free
two party system hypocrisy
trust in them with our lives
they're still the ones
who decide your fate
your destination
who's in control of our lives
burn your bridges to the ground
forget all the freedom that you've found
i can see them from miles away
but i don't hear what they say do you
all those suits on capitol hill
they're on my mind
they're making me ill
important thing is what they're doing
i don't really care
i don't really give a fuck who they're screwin'
do you blieve in your freedom
stand up for your rights
do what you choose
burn your bridges to the ground
forget all the freedom that you've found
i can see them from miles away
but i don't hear what they say
we are one in a million we are one and the same
like buildings of our generation,
they're in our name
they'll censor it with a whistle now
while back in 1952
the mercy of our mother there is nothing left to do
it's only human nature pollutes temptation
we have reserved bookings for the fathers of our nation
his things gone too far
we're entirely described
the peeling microwavers and a telescopic eye
intimate dimension keeping perfect track of time
the rolling mass of thunder on a simulated line
we are all one
it cant be undone
were stuck
there no future!
if i had my way
i would fly far away,
where noone else could find me
and build a home
i could call my very own
the night was dark
the seas were rough
the port lay straight ahead
the booze ran out
the men grew tired
and this is what they said:
"captain if you cannot find a place to set her down
then you'll be sleeping right along with this vessel in the ground"
well the jolly roger pulled through
and made it to the land
we disembarked
went into town with vengence in our hand
the children cried
the woman sight
the men just turn their heads
so with a smile we chated loud and this is what we said
"ooohhoooh
raise'em in the air
we'll knock you up
and slap you down
and never seem to care
ooohooohh
another one for me
cause we're the filthy vermin
that will set you people free"
with nothing left for us to drink
the night was winding down
but still the girls kept swaggering
and still hanging around
oh! mister can you tell me where i can find a man
the only thing that you will find is the back side of my hand!
"ooohhoooh
raise'em in the air
we'll knock you up
and slap you down
and never seem to care
ooohooohh
another one for me
we're the filthy vermin
that will set you people free
we're the filthy vermin
that will set you people free
ooohhoooh
raise'em in the air
we'll knock you up
and slap you down
and never seem to care
ooohooohh
another one for me
we're the filthy vermin
that will set you people free
we're the filthy vermin
how can you justify your pain
(why do you justify your pain)
when every one has felt the same
how can you walk around so dead
(why do you walk around so dead)
with good days gone and more ahead
(with good days gone and more ahead)
with one look you take
the idle minds that lay before you
and give something they can touch and they can feel
and in the end
you'll have the memories that few could dream off
so with these words i say
can't you see that your life's just begun
how can you let the days go by
(why do you let the days go by)
with no excuse no alibi
how can you fall when you don't climb
(how can you fall when you don't climb)
the fear of heights has left you blind
(the fear of heights has left you blind)
with one look you take
the idle minds that lay before you
and give something they can touch and they can feel
and in the end
you'll have the memories that few could dream off
so with these words i say
can't you see that your life's just begun
i see you're life has just begin
why can't i be free
with one look you take
the idle minds that lay before you
and give something they can touch and they can feel
and in the end
you'll have the memories that few could dream off
so with these words i say
I saw your face in a photo today
Took me back to a time that I loved so
One thing remains that still gives me pain
The fact that I never got to say don't go
Don't go
Dark days fell upon this town that year
I remember the sordid talk and tears
A scarlet letter was sewn onto you long ago
But the way you felt no one will ever know
Turn on the radio and that song would play
Oh how the irony when I look back on that day
Don't go
Late at night you would tell me that it would all be fine
Realized that our doubts weren't just mine
We would sit and contemplate just what to do
But I never thought it would be without you
Don't go
Now you're gone so I'll say our lives you changed
heard my favorite song on the radio
i get so tired that i just don't know
is my whole life comin' down on me
or is my problem anxiety
she said
spent the last few days, wide awake,
and i don't know how much more i can take,
i only have one life to live
and i want to give it all I can
even though there's something that i didn't do right
we really want fatal fever got some feeling tonight
i want to know
i wanna go
i wanna take myself so far away
i say night night time i'm gonna be your friend to know
half past 2, i stepped into
the place i wanna be
ohhh you might be to lay my head
i'm just to tryin to find some sleep
well its been 3 days since I had a good meal
i havent been without a beer for 4
and i know when i wake up tomorrow yeah
i gotta hope that I've got space for one more
i want to know
i wanna go
i wanna take myself so far away
i say not this time, i'm gonna be afraid to say
i want to know
i wanna go
i wanna take myself so far away
i say not this time, i'm gonna be a friend to say
i want to know

reality
sobriety
anxiety
its not a cup of my tea
soberness
awareness
environmental madness
it should to be
baggy pants
stupid hats
talkin bout their loaded cats
they're wannabes
work all day sleep all night
they don't know what its like
they're yuppies
its not my cup of tea
so don't talk trash to me
how can you step up to me and tell me how to look
trying to tell me how to dress or even how to cook
who are you to judge what i do in my own home
who are you to say what i can and cannot grow
why do you control my life and my own property
everything i have and own cannot be taken easily
you always tell me what to do and what to say
Born on the wrong side of opportunity
Bled from my hands and my heart for the country
But I've lost all hope and I can't stay
Because in my dreams I swear she says my name
She's calling out her voice rings so proud
She's calling out entranced by the sound
I take one last walk down to the shore
Mi vista siena siempre mi amor
Because tomorrow don't know where I'll be
