Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live
In cars
Here in my car
I can only receive
I can listen to you
It keeps me stable for days
In cars
Here in my car
Where the image breaks down
Will you visit me please
If I open my door
In cars
Here in my car
I know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
(ok Tom take a drink now... (laughing) )
My oh my, can you save my life?
It doesn't have to mean looking out for me.
Hey now look at you, way cool, on time.
There's no room for Mamacita.
Sit tight, she'd say.
A ok and that's what you'll say while falling on the ground, leaves in her hair.
Hey now look at you, way cool on time.
Tom:(hey, hey guys, hey, I think... hey... hey dude, dude, Jim Zatrioni!)
Jim: (we hate, we hate you! we're nazi! we're nazi! woaaahh)
Here in my car

Although nothing seems right
In cars
I know I've started to think
A convertible Porsche is what I’m striving to drive
DJ Polo of course, drives a ride that’s live
With a AMG kit, in his pockets a mitt
And if you try to steal his shit, by a pitch you get bit
But yo one day you will see me in a fly Lambourghini
On my way to the beach picking up girls in bikinis
I’m a hip-hop star and yo I’m bound to go far
And all the girlies jump right on it
When you drive a dope car
Yo I see cars driving by me looking milky and shiny
Tires made from Pirelli getting all of the heinies
Now a few of my friends they drive a Mercedes Benz
All the seats are stitched and hemmed, MCM and gold rims
The people are looking, all the ladies are hooking
All the cops get shooken, suckers’ girlfriends get tooken
Candy-apple Corvette, Benzy Boss in effect
And you know you get respect cause they’re breaking their necks
i can't put out your fire
i know it's too late
i can't be up for hire
it's not my best trait
the gallow glass is cracking
it's starting to smash
how can you cry
without blinking a lash
you're feeling cross and wavy
on the edge of the cuff
you're pushing and popping
you can't get enough
you wish that it was over
you never slow down
you're looking for kicks
there's nothing around
you can't hold on too long
it's alright
you can't hold on too
long it's alright
you're surrounded by the laughing boys
they puncture your style
they send for their bandanas
you try for their smile
you'd like to come in colors
you don't know which one
you can't be too choosy
I really love the way you talk
I don't mind sayin' so
And oh, I love it when you dance
So silky slow
Oh, baby please don't go
I know you refuse to get involved
You won't help me out none
You run around like a paperdoll
Pretending it's fun
Oh, baby please don't run
Somethin' in the night, just don't sit right
Looks like I'm gonna be up all night, yeah
It's been such a long time
Since I held you
I said, it's been such a long time
Since I held you
Oh oh, such a long time
Since I held you
I won't forget the way you said
It doesn't bother you much
Tutor impressions in your head
Just before the last touch
That meant so much
Somethin' in the night, just don't sit right
Looks like I'm gonna be up all night, yeah
It's been such a long time
Since I held you
I said it's been such a long time
Since I held you
Oh oh, such a long time
Since I held you
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
Such a long time
Well, it's been a long, long time
I said, it's been a long, long time
It's been a long time
Since I held you
Oh oh, such a long time
Dance all night, play all day
Don't let nothing get in the way
Dance all night, keep the beat
Don't you worry 'bout two left feet
Just shake it up
Dance all night, get real loose
You don't need no bad excuse
Dance all night with anyone
Don't let nobody pick your fun
Just shake it up
Dance all night, go, go, go
Dance all night, get real slow
Go all night, get real hot
Shake it up until you pop
Dance all night, whirl your hair
Make the night cats stop and stare
Dance all night, go to work
Do the move with the quirky jerk
Just shake it up
All I need is what you've got
All I'll tell is what you're not
All you know is what you hear
I get this way when yo come near
CHORUS
Then I know it's gone too far
Oh, oh, I touched your star
And it felt so right
Like the hush of midnight
Until you said
With me it's touch and go
All I need is you tonight
I'm flying like a cement kite
In your headlock on the floor
Who could ever ask for more
CHORUS
All I want is you tonight
I guess that dress does fit you tight
And how that look does make me shake
It almost looks too good to take
I got a line on you
We could be overdue
We could be trashed inside
We could be on the slide
No need to cool it out
Just one two three and shout
You just can't push me
You just can't push me
You just can't push me
Around
You got to help me in
You want to be my sin
You want to be my dream
You want to fill my dreams yea
No need to feel it out
Just another something
To forget about
You just can't push me
You just can't push me
You just can't push me
Around (oh not like this)
I got a line on you
We could be overdue
We could be trashed inside
We could be on the slide
You just can't push me
You just can't push me
You just can't push me
all us angles wearing studs
plastic mouth melts in the sun
running colors everyone
were all in prison having fun
perfect pictures hang around
delusions swing you up and down
falling out windows climbing up trees
illusions of tranquility
locks and chains
gonna blow your brains out
locks and chains
never felt like a dream like you before
even knocking door to door
herds of people choosing arms
keeps us all in mass alarm
murder movies make your day
living in the usa
cracked up people on the edge
got no heroes got no bread
get the jitters get the shakes
heading for the final take
locks and chains
can't feel no more
never felt a dream like you before
even knocking door to door
it's my party, you can come
it's my party, have some fun
it's my dream, have a laugh
it's my life, have a half
[Chorus:]
don't tell me no
it's my transition, it's my play
it's my phone call to betray
it's my hopscotch, light the torch
it's my downtime, feel the scorch
[Chorus]
it's my ambition, it's my joke
it's my teardrop, emotional smoke
it's my mercy, it's my plan
what's it gonna be?
red jacket girl, lover, midnight spree
what's it gonna be?
you look so imperial
what's it gonna be?
you tried and you tried but you couldn't hook your shoelace
what's it gonna be?
know you got intention, difficult to see
you can make the switch
you can have your wish
what's it gonna prove?
turning all the dials, makin' all the right moves
what's it gonna prove?
it's all so mystical
what's it gonna prove?
you look so tacky in your chrome drip belt
what's it gonna prove?
your ready to rage and startin' to melt down
you can make the switch
you can have your wish
don't go to pieces
b-b-b-baby
don't go to pieces
don't go to pieces
b-b-b-baby
don't go to pieces
what's it gonna show?
all left out and ready to go
what's it gonna mean?
you feel like trash but you look so clean
what's it gonna do?
all of them angels jealous of you
where's it gonna go?
anyplace, faster pace, overcome the low blow
you can make the switch
(ooooo)
you can have your wish
don't go to pieces
b-b-b-baby
don't go to pieces
don't go to pieces
b-b-b-baby
don't go to pieces
don't go to pieces
b-b-b-baby
don't go to pieces
(ooooo)
don't go to pieces
(ooooo)
b-baby
(ooooo)
don't go to pieces
(ooooo)
don't go to pieces
b-baby
(ooooo)
don't go to pieces
(ooooo)
right here i'd like to melt inside of you
right here your kiss is totally new
right here your hands are soft and creamy
right here your mouth is wet and dreamy
and it's just what i like
so dim down the light
don't cha stop don't cha stop
don't cha stop don't cha stop
if it makes you feel good
your rhapsody is blowing my cool
your fantasies were written for fools
your long black hair it tickles my skin
I can't feel this way much longer
Expecting to survive
With all these hidden innuendoes
Just waiting to arrive
It's such a wavy midnight
And you slip into insane
Electric angel rock and roller
I hear what you're playin'
It's an orangy sky
Always it's some other guy
It's just a broken lullaby
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Substitution mass confusion
Clouds inside your head
Involving all my energies
Until you visited
With your eyes of porcelain and of blue
They shock me into sense
You think you're so illustrious
You call yourself intense
It's an orangy sky
Always it's some other guy
It's just a broken lullaby
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Yeah bye bye love
Bye bye love-ov-ov-ove
Substitution mass confusion
Clouds inside your head
Well foggin' all my energies
Until you visited
With your eyes of porcelain and of blue
They shock me into sense
You think you're so illustrious
You call yourself intense
It's an orangy sky
Always it's some other guy
It's just a broken lullaby
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
the loud mornin' in the small town cries
you gotta get away
and someone's throwin' in the prize
they don't wanna stay
the streets are quiet like the stars
moonlight puts on a chill
you gotta get yourself outta here
you always say you will ha
oh black rider feels alright
oh persian dreams china white
where you gonna go tonight
you gotta breakaway
well you gotta breakaway
uh people move between themselves
without on purpose touching
always nearly dark and frantic
in the corner people clutching
the dance-o-rama it burns East breeze
hiding screams of passion
the nightwatch city it melts away
oh keepin' up with fashion
oh black rider feels alright
oh persian dreams china white
oo, where you gonna stay tonight
you gotta breakaway

oh black rider feels alright
come on chase the dragon
time is tight=20
time is tight
you gotta breakaway
breakaway
oh time is tight
yeah
time is so tight
you gotta breakaway
You believe in anything
They tell you how to think
The simpletons all circle
In the raging roller rink
I'm trading in the alley
I'm booking up a storm
Forget about reality
Cause nothing is the norm
Yeah yeah
So what can you do
You say
They owe me a few yeah
Blue tip of your cue yeah
You got that look on your face
You'd like to be in the race
You cannot hide your disgrace
You leave without a trace
All set to weary your heartland
Black and white tv
Stroking all the gunheads
Into the ninth degree
You here the screamers coming
They clamour in disguise
You think that you'd be running
To the other side
Yeah yeah
So what can you do
You say
They owe me a few yeah
Blue tip of your cue yeah
You got that look on your face
You'd like to be in the race
You cannot hide your disgrace
Can't fill an empty space
(Ahh)
You stupify the thinkers
(Ahh)
You're hugging all the flakes
(Ahh)
And all the things you think are true
(Ahh)
Only mystify the fakes
Well keep your hat on backwards
And keep your lips tucked in
The world is full of quackers
And belly button rings
I know you'd like to be immune
To the things they say
You're hung up on your heroes
And upon the beast you pray
Yeah hey
What can you do
You say
Well they owe me a few yeah
Blue (blue) tip of your cue yeah
You got that look on your face
You'd like to be in the race
You cannot hide your disgrace
You leave without a trace
You got that look on your face
You'd like to be in the race
You cannot hide your disgrace
How could they leave you standing?
Holding on to the air
With never a hope of landing
Didn't they know you cared
An' you're findin' out
It's never quite like it seems
You're findin' out
It's never quite like it dreams
Didn't you get connected
When things were still upside down?
Feeling somewhat neglected
Turning the tide around
You're findin' out
It's never quite like it seems
You're findin' out
It's never quite like it dreams
It keeps coming up you again
Well, you're never to hard to find
It keeps coming up you again
They're takin' up all your time
It keeps coming up you
Coming up you again
It keeps coming up you
Coming up you again
However you want to take it
With streamers of violet
If only you could forsake it
It stifles your etiquette
An' you're findin' out
It's never quite like it seems
You're findin' out
It's never quite like it dreams
It keeps coming up you again
You're never to hard to find
It keeps coming up you again
They're takin' up all your time
It keeps coming up you
Coming up you again
It keeps coming up you
Coming up you again
It keeps coming up you again
Coming up you, coming up you again
It keeps coming up you again
Coming up you, coming up you again
Do you have to be so hard to get
Especially with those emerald eyes
You might have been a neon lover
But you didn't have to advertise
Come on, come on, well, come on
Oh, come on, you might have been a crack shot shooter
Oh, come on, hung up on your figurine
Oh, come on, under the cold and darkly sky
Oh, come on, you're the only light I've seen, come on, well come on
And it happens every time, I'm still hanging on the line
Don't want to go up and down, don't want to go up and down
Don't want to go up and down, don't want to go up and down
Oh, come on, you don't have to be so touch
Oh, come on, I'll tell you when I've had enough
Oh, come on, you don't have to reek with charm
Oh, come on, you won't have to twist my arm, come on, oh, come on
And it happens every time, I'm still hanging on the line
Don't want to go up and down, don't want to go up and down
Don't want to go up and down, don't want to go up and down
Don't want to go up and down, don't want to go up and down
It's not the night
For foolin'
It's not the night
For crazy eyes
I get the feelin'
You want to stay
I get the feelin'
You're givin' it all away
But I know
I know you take it well
And for you
For you I always fell
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
For, for sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
To spend
The time is right
To take it out
The time is right to tango
Got a feelin'
You're runnin' out
Before your last fandango
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
For sweet, sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
To spend
It's not the night
For sticky boots
It's not the night
For tango
I get the feelin'
You're the spark
That's dancin' in the dark
I get the feelin'
You're the one
A rushin' on the run
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
For sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
To spend
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
You're lookin' for sweet, sweet revenge
It's not the night
(It's not the night)
Night to end
oh yea i got time
oh yea i guess i'm doing fine
till i met you in the dark
i was chasing little sparks
you were slinked and dressed in pink
here with someone you wouldn't think
is this the kill is this the thrill
i'll wait until you say
this could be love
oh yea i got hope
oh yea it comes and goes
till i met you things were easy
till i met you things were sleazy
doesn't matter once i told
you were someone i could hold
oh yea i need you
oh yea more than you want me to
till i met you in the dark
i was chasing little sparks
when you think you're going to sink
everytime i see you i got to jump and shout
i haven't got a clue to what it's all about
i never had a dream that looked so much like you
i'd do anything that you want me to
think it over think it over
there's nothing you could do to make me want to stop
think it over think it over
everytime you run around it makes me want to pop
what's it going to take to make you change your line
what's it's going to take to get your valentine
how can i be sure that you're the one for me
Hey baby I like your lips
Hey baby I like your hands
Hey I feel lucky tonite
I'm gonna get stoned and run around
Last night i was down in the lab
Talking to Dracula and his crew
Well I don't need no heavy trips
I just do what I want to do
We're havin' fun, yeah,
We're having fun, sure, we're having fun
Baby baby we like your lips
and baby baby we like your hands
Hey everybody we want in
We want some, we want some
Baby baby we like your lips
and baby baby we like your hands
Yeah, I don't need no heavy trips
I just do what I want to do
Havin' fun, oh yeah,
We're havin' fun, we're havin' fun
how would i know about your life
how about a long night
how do you follow the sun
how do you stay under the thumb
there's a fine line between us
such a fine fine line
there's a fine line between us
and it's always on my mind
what can you say to make me realize
the full moon in your eyes
you probably know now that you're waking up
you still feel shaken up
there's a fine line between us
all the way
there's a fine line between us
can't waste another day
they take you in their arms and whisper
what you want to hear don't you fall
they show you all their charms and whisper
big city noise disappears
sucker punch is in your heart
light is reason light is due
my shape is shapeless in your suit
chrome red eyeballs reflect and roll
simple sun is slowly sinking
roman shoes and pretty hats
glitter bombs that beat the beat
you comb the night 'cause you're a cruiser
and you never get enough
when you're cruising down the street
and you're chasing off the heat
when you're on the moonlight run
floating jets and big vignettes
get the treatment grab a cab
set aside the screaming fish
tell the world why you're so glad
flip the switches pull the plug
you always wait for better news
you need a hit you need a slug
from your junkie drawer (?)
you fell onto the floor
uh then got up up for more
I remember the night
uh you blew away
you just couldn't wait
you were weakened with love
and you were closin' the gate
from your fair we dem (???)
your eyes were rough again
I thought I knew you when
I remember the night
uh you blew away
you just couldn't wait
you were weakened with love
and you were closin' the gate
from your liquid sea
your shotgun sympathy (?)
uh then you preached nothin's free (?)
I remember the night
uh you blew away
you just couldn't wait
you were weakened with love
and you were closin' the gate
candy o i need you
sunday dress ruby rings
candy o i need you so
could you help me in
purple hum, assorted cards
razor lights, you bring
and all to prove you're on the move
and vanishing
candy o i need you so
candy o i need you so
the edge of night distract yourself
obstacles don't work
homogenize, decentralize
it's just a quirk
different ways to see you through
all the same in the end
peculiar star that's who you are
took me long enough to find you
took me long enough to get you there
sometimes i feel like the sunshine lost
and i look for the crumbs you toss
took me long enough to get past your eyes
took me long enough to tranquilize
when you'd be laughing inside the storm
i can still feel your mouth so warm
you'll be back when you need someone
you'll pretend it was just for fun
i'm so wound up on you
i'm so wound up on you
i'm so wound up on you
and i'm easy when you need me
took me long enough to get over
took me long enough to figure out
you never meant to stay around
you never meant to be losing ground
here she comes with that tip toe walk
Wake me up in the middle of the flight
Show me which way to go
Where the wind won't blow
Swing me up sweet purple June
Hold me like I'm a child that's about to go wild
I'd like to know just where you've been
If you would like to try again
I'd like to slow this spin I'm in
Would you like it to begin?
Silver sunbeam tease my eyes
I am too satisfied with your other side
Roll me up and drop me back down
Lay me back in New York town
That's where I like to be found
I'd like to know just where you've been
If you would like to try again
I'd like to slow this spin I'm in
Would you like it to begin?
Roll me up and drop me back down
Lay me back in New York town
you pitched and I was thrown
second face was never shown
though you hit so hard you know which way to look
oh darlin' oh darlin' didn't you read the book?
and all your nightmares were on fire
and all your lovers they were liars
though you tried my eyes you know which way to look
could you tell me, please tell me, didn't you read the book?
take me now
take me now
take me now
you were starry eyed and pale[?]
you had no reason to unveil
though you tried my eyes, you know which way to look
oh darlin' oh darlin' didn't you read the book?
take me now
take me now
take me now
take me now
take me now
take me now
i'm coming around
y want you to come
i'm coming around
just for the fun
i'm having a real time
taking what's not mine
and I'm doing what I want to do
[Chorus:]
that's running to you
you're looking for someone
maniacal shots
you're looking for someone
over the top
i'm having a real time
reading your headline
and I'm doing what I want to do
[Chorus]
you're hoping for someone
fits in the plan
you're hoping for someone
two in the hand
i'm having a real time
taking what's not mine
and I'm doing what I like to do
i don't want to be your party doll
all flaked out in Tinsel Town
circus mouth shooting all directions
with TV ads that sell erections
[Chorus:]
i got no clue what they want to do with you
it's just getting through, getting through to you
living outside the misdemeanor
some get lost and some are screamers
it's easy to tell the great pretender
broken wings and flip top fenders
[Chorus]
i don't want to be your suffering box
argue art or untie your knots
i don't want to be your bad connection
or fit into your reality vision
I don't care if you hurt me some more
I don't care if you even the score
Well you can knock me and I don't care
and you can mock me, I don't care
You can rock me just 'bout anywhere
it's alright (ah ah, ah ah ah)
(chorus)
Cause you're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
I need you (tonight)
I need you (tonight)
I don't care if you use me again
I don't care if you abuse me again
Well you can make me, I don't care
and you can fake me, I don't care
And you can love me just 'bout anywhere
it's alright (ah ah, ah ah ah)
(chorus)
(instrumental)
I don't wanna feel sorry for you
You don't have to make believe it's you
You can pump me, I don't care
and you can bump me, I don't care
And you love me just 'bout anywhere
it's alright (ah ah, ah ah ah)
(chorus)
(instrumental)
(chorus)
you wear those eyes that never blink
you always were the missing link
you paint your mouth, you let me know
you really are the only show
just take your time
'cause it's not too late
i'll be your mirror
so you won't hesitate
i'm easy to be found
whenever you come down
you got that walk, you do the stroll
you make me lose my ground control
you got that look I can't resist
like something missing, never kissed
you do the pogo without the bounce
you got the name I can't pronounce
you fall in love like the sting
Oh well uh you might think I'm crazy
To hang around with you
Or maybe you think I'm lucky
To have somethin' to do
But I think that you're wild
Inside me is some child
You might think I'm foolish
Or maybe it's untrue
(you might think)
You might think I'm crazy
(all I want)
But all I want is you
You might think it's hysterical
But I know when you're weak
You think you're in the movies
And everything's so deep
But I think that you're wild
When you flash that fragile smile
You might think it's foolish
What ya put me through
(you might think)
You might think I'm crazy
(all I want)
All I want is you
And it was hard, so hard to take
There's no escape without a scrape
But you kept it going till the sun fell down
You kept it going
Oh well uh you might think I'm delirious
The way I run you down
But somewhere sometimes
When you're curious
I'll be back around
Oh I think that you're wild
And so-o uniquely styled
You might think it's foolish
This chancy rendezvous
(you might think)
You might think I'm crazy
(all I want)
All I want is you-a-oo
All I want is you
(all I want)
Why don't you dream anymore?
What's in the way?
How come you point to the door
And ask me to stay?
Why don't you flash that smile
like you used to do?
Why don't you stay for awhile?
Uh well it's up to you
Cause you are the girl
that keeps me up at night
You are the girl
that makes me feel all right
You are the girl
well you give me a twirl
You are the girl
in my dreams
Why don't you talk anymore?
What did I say?
How is it what I came for
is floating away?
Why don't you flash that smile
Like you used to do?
Why don't you stay for awhile?
Uh well it's up to you
Cause you are the girl
that keeps me up at night
You are the girl
that makes me feel all right
(You are the girl)
You are the girl
Well you give me a twirl
(You are the girl)
You are the girl
in my dreams
Why don't you dream anymore?
What's in the way?
How come you point to the door
And ya ask me to stay?
Why don't you flash that smile
like you used to do?
Why don't you stay for awhile?
Uh cause it's up to you oh
You are the girl
that keeps me up at night
You are the girl
that makes me feel all right
(You are the girl)
You are the girl
Oh you give me a twirl
(You are the girl)
You are the girl
in my dreams
(Well you are the girl)
You are the girl
And you give me a twirl
(You are the girl)
You are the girl
in my dreams
Oh you are the girl
she can take you
anywhere she wants to
she can show you things
that make you weak
she can make you think
that you're the only one
she can steal your heart
with just one wink
she'll hold you tight she won't let go
she'll make it last and she'll make it slow
she'll tell you things
that you should not know
'cause you're the victim
the victim of love
framed by the night
touched by the glove
you're the victim
the victim of love
she can freeze you
when she doesn't want to talk
she can work it on in
she can go take a walk
she can have it or leave it
she can do the skidoo
you better believe it
she's having fun on you
when she's calling you out
you better run to her
when she's just falling out
you better care
when she needs somebody
you better run to her
when she gives in too soon
I could dream about
Things that never end
Oh, wishes on a star
Something 'round the bend
I remember times
Things were pretty clear
Felt the pressure pawns
Threw away the fears
I believe in you
And your sultry side
I would never jump
Your never-ending ride
My feet are on the ground
I'm in the lost and found
I might sway and tip
But never jump that ship
I'm never gonna get that crazy
I'm never gonna be shot down
Ya know it takes a lot to faze me
Whenever you're around
And you say
It's too late
All the storms in life
You have to contemplate
You say
It's too late
When the mornings rise
You gotta celebrate
You may cross the line
Or suck a clementine
But I know for sure
I need you nevermore
There's dreamers on the fringe
There's lovers on the binge
Nobody really knows
That's just the way it goes
I'm never gonna get that crazy
I'm never gonna be shot down
You know it takes a lot to faze me
Whenever you're around
And you say
It's too late
All the storms in life
You gotta contemplate
You say
It's too late
When the mornings rise
You gotta celebrate
I can take a fall
Or hang it on the wall
No matter whatcha think
I'm always on the brink
You can throw a twist
And I can move like this
They give ya lots of slack
Then somethin' pulls you back
I'm never gonna get that crazy
I'm never gonna be shot down
Ya know it takes a lot to faze me
Whenever you're around
And you say
It's too late
All the storms in life
You gotta contemplate
You say
It's too late
When the mornings rise
I know tonight she comes
she's takin' a swipe at fun
she gives me a reason
for sighting my sights
well I know tonight she comes
she jangles me up
she does it with ease
and sometimes she passes through me
just like a breeze
she gives me a reason
for feelin' all right
oh well
(know tonight, I know tonight)
I know tonight
(know tonight, I know tonight)
I know tonight
(know tonight, I know tonight)
she comes
and I know she's gonna do it to me
one more time (one more time)
I know she's gonna stay implanted
in my mind
why does she keep me hanging on the line, oh
(why does she keep me hanging on the liiiiiiine)
ah yeah, I know she's gonna do it to me
one more time (one more time)
I know she's gonna stay implanted
in my mind
oh, why does she keep me hanging on the line, oh yeah
(why does she keep me hanging on the liiiiiiine)
I know the way she feels
and all of the hearts that she steals
she tells me it's easy
when you do it right
oh well, ell I know tonight she comes
(I know tonight she comes)
she tells me it's easy
when you do it right
(know tonight, I know tonight) I know tonight
(know tonight, I know tonight) I know tonight
(know tonight, I know tonight) she comes
(she comes)
I know tonight, oh yeah
(know tonight, I know tonight)
(I know tonight) well I know tonight
(know tonight, I know tonight)
Let's have a party, let's go insane
Let's dance and party, out in the rain
Let's tell the crew, we've broken their brains
I know they will laugh, until they get sick
They're caught in the act, stuck in the thick
Let's go to the Warsaw and try to find peace
Let's call up the queen and bother her niece
Let's really drink up and pile on the crease
They say you'll be back,
But don't come too near
They have the attack if you disappear
But they won't see you
(The won't see you)
I said they won't see you
(They won't see you)
They won't see you
(They won't see you)
Let's have a trauma, let's have a shock
Let's stare at the TV and relate to Spock
Let's never answer the novelty knock
They get so upset when you come around
They won't let you forget until you come down
They won't see you (They won't see you)
I said they won't see you (They won't see you)
They won't see you (They won't see you)
I said they won't see you (They won't see you)
They won't see you (They won't see you)
I don't care what they say
I'm gonna keep it anyway
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
Chorus:
I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine, all mine
You can't take it away
Verse 2:
Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
I got what they want to see
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
[repeat chorus]
Verse 3:
Oh, father, what can I do?
(well)The little black egg's gonna tell on you
And, I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
Well, that's it
Don't wanna show you
That's it
Don't really care
Can't you see
It's misery
And that's it
Oh, yeah
Well, that's it
(that's it)
Don't play it cool now
That's it
(that's it)
Your trick is dead
Can't you see
It's lunacy
So, that's it
(that's it)
Oh, yeah
I'm lettin' it all go
I'm lettin' it all go
Back to one
(back to one)
Just for fun
(just for fun)
Well, that's it
(that's it)
Don't make it harder
That's it
(that's it)
Don't make it tough
Can't you see
No remedy
And that's it
(that's it)
Oh, yeah
I'm lettin' it all go
I'm lettin' it all go
Back to one
(back to one)
Just for fun
(just for fun)
Take what you want
And leave what you don't
Take what you want
And leave what you don't
I'm painting a face
The color is dripping
Magnesium moments
In black fairy tales
I live on emotion
And comic relief
I put this one on you
Run, run, run like a thief
Am I all alone?
Am I all alone?
Salamander sunrise
Comes at 4:44
Lingerie madness
Don't you kick down the door
Sweet Sarah's so wild
Don't you know why I'm losing your head
Down the dark alley
Where rumours are spread
The room is so dark
I'm catching on fire
I'm in love with your face
It's so confused by desire
Am I all alone? Am I all alone?
I'm winding it up
It's running back down
I'm winding it up
It's running back down
So take what you want
And leave what you don't
Take it
Take it
Shadows falling on my day
And time is standing still
You see things in a different way
A way that no one will
They're going to take the very thing
That's closest to your heart
They cannot mend your broken wings
You knew it from the start
So tell me...
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to play the whole thing down
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to take a look around
And rivers rolling to the sea
Clouds are breaking high
You can't find tranquility
Wherever it may hide
You played the game and now it's time
To keep the fire low
Silver trains are rolling by
You have no place to go
So tell me...
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to play the whole thing down
Don't you want to take another look away
Maybe you could turn it all around
Your eyes are dim your heart is blue
Cause nothing ever lasts
It's all too many miles to you
The best of friends must pass
So tell me...
Don't you want to take another look away
Don't you want to play the whole thing down
Don't you want to take another look away

You're my lover, you're the one I depend on
With one another we don't have to pretend
You could turn me down or over twice
You could treat me mean or treat me nice
But soon the time will come I know what I put you through
The time will run away from us like time it will do
You're my lover and forever my friend
When I touch you I never want it to end
When the starry night is left to dawn
The thought of you just keeps me dreaming on
But soon the time will come I know what I put you through
The time will run away from us like time it will do
When I need you, you will always be there
And you're my lover we can go anywhere
When the starry night is left to dawn
The thought of you just keeps me dreaming on
But soon the time will come I know what I put you through
The time will run away from us like time it will do
I can tell that you're wild
and you love their achey smiles [?]
and I know I'm on the list to be kissed
when you're givin' out the name
of the one you want to blame
[?? as the one you want to claim ??)
you'll be on the brink of tears, that's right
could I talk you out of stayin' here tonight?
well I see that you're cute
in your Viarucci [?] suit
and your eyes have seen the shadows that you hide [?]
I could be a little sweet
that would come off very neat
you'd be on the brink of tears, that's right
could I talk you out of stayin' here tonight?
I've been waitin' all this time
somethin's gotta change now
I get the same erratic line
slip, slipaway now
slip, slipaway now
slip, slip, slip, slipaway now
well I see that you're fast
and you're trip will never last
and I know I'm on the list to be missed
it's your sentimental streak
that allows you to be meek
and you're on the brink of tears, that's right
could I talk you out of stayin' here tonight?
I've been waitin' all this time
somethin's gotta change now
I get the same erratic line
oh slip, slipaway now
slip, slipaway now
slip, slip, slip, slipaway now
slip, slipaway now
slip, slipaway now
slip
that's right
slip, slip, slip, slipaway now
it's funny honey but you don't care
you never want to take me anywhere
you ride around in your cadium car
you keep wishing upon a star
why is it you don't care
don't you go making eyes on me
don't remind me
don't you tell me what to do
Too many screamers
Wearing a mask
Too many dreamers
Looking for the ones that last
Too many eyes
Looking for hope
Too many tears
Looking for a way to cope
It's no joke
It's just a sad song
That pulls you along yeah
It's just a sad song
And it won't take long
Too many thoughts
Breaking your stride
Too many jekylls
Feeling like a mr. hyde
Too many clouds
Darken your day
Too many rain drops
Falling on your thunder bay
Everyday
Yeah
It's just a sad song
That pulls you along yeah
It's just a sad song
And you're getting it on
It's just a sad song
That pulls you along
It's just a sad song
And it won't take long
Too many heartaches
Waiting to strike
Too many clowns
Saying everything's all right
Too many fires
Scorching your mind
Too many preachers
Saying what you should find
Just see the signs
It's just a sad song
That pulls you along yeah
It's just a sad song
And it won't take long
It's just a sad song
It pulls you along
It's just a sad song
And it won't take long
It's just a sad song
A sad song yeah
It's just a sad song
And you're getting it on
It's just a sad song
Sad song
It's just a sad song
i'm going to get what's coming to me
no surprises, no impressions
hey, what's wrong with you tonight
just sitting on your can can
doing the panoram
with nothing to comtemplate
with nothing to search for
with nothing to integrate
with nothing to do
except think about you
with nothing to do
except fall for blue
i just want to be in your panorama
i just want to be in your panorama
i'm going to take what's coming to me
no entanglements and no compromise
get the picture, i'm on my knees
looking at your hot shot
turning down your offer
well i'm ripping it up
i'm looking away
i'm pulling my flag up
i'm miles away
with nothing to do
except think about you
i just want to be in your panorama
i just want to be in your panorama
i'm going to find my way out of here
no pushing the buttons
no deals with daddy-o
i'm going to get myself in trouble
and i'll take my chances
could be you're crossing the fine line
a silly driver kinda, off the wall
you keep it cool when it's t-t-tight
eyes wide open when you start to fall
you go dancing in the dim lit club
some pressure cooker
crawls up on his knees
flashing sensation like a one on one
stomping around in the jitterbug breeze
oo how you shake me up and down
when we hit the nightspots on the town
it's all behind you when you do catch on
you keep your lovers in a penny jar
a real romantic with a sultry stare
you keep messing with your blonde long hair
i dream frequently
sometimes they come out funny
i go through insanity
all they want is money
all these parties get so habitual
the same sea of faces
always pushing, always pulling
always in the races
i get cooled out
i get the come ons
i get rumbled
i get crumbled
[Chorus:]
i'm the American misfit kid
still wondering what I did
i'm on the inside taking a fast ride
i'm stiletto so
so sharp and I'm willing to cut
sometimes nebulous
I'm ready to strut
lost and frantic
new age romantic
checking out the race
never cared about what it meant
always loved disgrace
i get rhythm
i get Cornflakes
i get fast love
i get wasted
[Chorus]
i dream frequently
sometimes they come out funny
i live with absurdity
always warm and runny
all these parties get so ritual
lonely hearts and aces
always pushing, always pulling
always in the races
i heard stories about you
i'd like to think that they were true
i did not know you'd be like that
with those surprises under hat
be my maybe baby
when you dance between the stars
in the night late sweet and dark
turn them over one by one
you don't need to jump the gun
when the night is feeling flush
when the night is all a hush
electric look electic blue
Summer,it turns me upside down
Summer, summer, summer
It's like a merry go round
I see you under the midnight
All shackles and bows
High shoes with the cleats a clickin'
A tempermental glow
Oh, don't you let me go
Oh, I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you tonight
(Night)
Oh, I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
(Got a hold on you)
I'll check
(Oh oh, it's magic)
When I'm with you
(Oh, it's magic)
(Oh oh it's magic)
To know the magic
You know it's true
I gotta hold on you
Oh, twisted under sideways down
I know you're getting twisted
And you can't calm down
I see you under the midnight
Love darts in your eyes
How far can you take it?
Till you realize
There's magic in your eyes
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you tonight
(Night)
I got a hold on you
(Got a hold on you)
I got a hold on you
(Got a hold on you)
Yeah, yeah, uh
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Oh oh, when I'm with you
(Oh it's magic)
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Just a little bit of the magic
Who's being true
I got a hold on you
I've got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
(Got a hold on you)
Lets try, it's magic
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Oh oh, it's magic
When I'm with you
(Oh oh)
(It's magic)
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Just to know the magic
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Yes I do
(Oh oh, it's magic)
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Just a little bit of magic
(Oh oh, it's magic)
That's true, when I'm with you
he's got his plastic sneakers
she's got her robuck purse
he's got his butane flicker
she's got it worse
they're crazy about each other
like a misplaced fix
they're mad about each other
they blame it all on the lust for kicks
he's got his own dumb waiter
she's reading one fell swoop
he gets around to it later
she fills the scoop
he's just a hit parader
she's just a cycle ride
he likes to masquerade her
come on lover
make the switch
pull the cover
make a wish
find out later
it's all right
keep the faith
kill the light
you can't stop
but you can't go on
you can't stop
but it won't be long
here she comes
looking for love
come on lover
do it fast
take advantage
while love lasts
limited edition
you're the one
walking the edge
i stood beside the rain today
and i twisted out my shirt
she's a cooly you could say
when she gets down to the dirt
she puffs her pillow up so high
it's like she's hanging in the sky
she claims it was some crazy guy
who taught her how to hurt
and kept her so alert
i felt so under sideways down
when she showed me all her prints
i could not help but feel confused
when she threw that heavy hint
she pulled out all her magzaines
she spread them out like chocolate dreams
her eyes were shooting dagger beams
she changed into her silk
i stood there drinking milk
i could leave or stay
makes no difference either way
she said don't listen to her words
as if they were all dead
she said she never made decisions
but the last thing that she said
just before she turned the bed
Oh, can I touch you, are you out of touch
I guess I never noticed that much
Geranium lover, I'm live on your wire
Oh, come and take me whoever you are
She's a lot like you
The dangerous type
She's a lot like you
Come on and hold me tight
Oh, inside angel, always upset
Keeps on forgettin' that we ever met
Can I bring you out in the light
My curiosity's got me tonight
She's a lot like you
The dangerous type
Oh, she's a lot like you
Come on and hold me tight
Museum directors with high shaking heads
They kick white shadows until they play dead
They want to crack your crossword smile
Oh, can I take you out for awhile, yeah
She's a lot like you
The dangerous type
She's a lot like you
Come on and hold me tight
She's a lot like you
The dangerous type
She's a lot like you
Come on and hold me tight
Tonight
Oh well the long street goes
For miles and miles
And it's picking up some strangers
And it's picking up some smiles
And the half breeds holler
They're educated guesses
And they got a lot of cheers
You guessed it you guessed it
They keep you in follow mode
They keep you in follow mode
Take the street you never rode
They keep you, they keep on knocking
Like the partys on, they keep on knocking
Like the partys gone from dark til dawn
I got some friends
In random places
All kinds of ideas
All kinds of faces
They keep their ready shoes on
They keep their shirts on ice
And they're looking for the future
To loosen the vice
They keep you in follow mode
They hold up their signs
They keep you in follow mode
Most of the time
They keep on knocking like the partys on
They keep on knocking from dark til dawn
They keep you in follow mode
They hold up their signs
They keep you in follow mode
All the time
They keep on knocking like the partys on
And the falls and the walls you think about it
And the calls and it crawls away
And you know that there's much to do about it
And you're caught in the ricochet
Sometimes we just walk away from delirious skies
Sometimes we just want to feel so electrified
It's only, yeah it's only to please the eyes and plague the heart
Fun flicks and the trick you knew about it
Dead bolts and a weird ways
And the times and the rhymes you knew about it
And the crimes they just fade away
Sometimes we just walk away from delirious skies
Sometimes we just want to feel so electrified
It's only, yeah it's only to please the eyes and plague the heart
And now I see the ones you want
And I know the ones you share
And you deceive the ones you dare
And the drift and the gift they give to you
And it turns to another day
And the mess and the stress you feel about it
It fades away
Sometimes we just walk away from delirious skies
Sometimes we just want to feel so electrified
One too many times
I fell over you
Once in a shadow
I finally grew
And once in a night
I dreamed you were there
I cancelled my flight
from going nowhere
[chorus]
It's all I can do
to keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
One too many times
I twisted the gate.
When I was crazy
I thought you were great
I kept my renditions
of you on the wall
Where holiday romance
is nothing at all.
[chorus]
You wat in the wings
like a Saturday flirt
Protecting the judge
you don't want to get hurt
And once in a romance
it all comes to you,
as soon as you get it,
I'm not the one
that you'll be shootin' for
I'm not the one
who's coming back for more
(You know why)
We've been through this too many times
(You know why)
It's never clear it's pantomime
Goin' round and round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' round and round
still takin' all the heat
Goin' round and round
never looking down
I'm not the one
whose memory you still keepin'
I'm not the one
who's talkin' in his sleep
(You know why)
I don't have to tell you twice
(You know why)
Knew you when you weren't so nice
Goin' round and round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' round and round
still takin' all the heat
Goin' round and round
never touching down
I'm not the one
that you'll be breakin' in and
I'm not the one
that you'll be takin' in
(You know why)
Tried and tried to crack the shell
(You know why)
When you fake it's hard to tell
Goin' round and round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' round and round
still takin' all the heat
Goin' round and round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' round and round and round and round
Goin' round and round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' round and round
still takin' all the heat
Goin' round and round
'cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' round and round
still takin' all the heat
you can tuck it on the inside
you can throw it on the floor
you can wave it on the outside
like you never did before
you get the diplomatic treatment
you get the force fed future
you get the funk after death
you get the wisenheimer brainstorm
i'm in touch with your world
so don't you try to hide it
i'm in touch with your world
and nobody's going to buy it
it's such a lovely way to go
i've been lying on your feathers
you keep talking about the weather
i'm a psilocybin pony
you're a flick fandango phoney
it's a sticky contradiction
it's a thing you call creation
everything is science fiction
everything's heaven sent
that's what you said and went
inside your fairy glass
is something you think will last
and when they crop you like a clown
you got your smile on upside down
baby i refuse
you can pick or choose
find somebody else to use
cause i refuse to come along
everything's on a whim
that's what you said to him
lying in wunderlust
are feeling you never trust
and when they pamper you with ice
i can't believe you don't think twice
everyone makes the play
with nothing much left to say
all in and endless line
waiting for equal time
they keep screaming it's the truth
CHORUS
I got a lot on my head
Most of it is you
I got a lot on my head
Can't forget about you
Lock me away where the silly boys go
I'm on top of my nerves, don't you know
Take me apart 'cause I'm out of control
Send me a letter on a midnight scroll
CHORUS
Dance by the window in flamingo pink
Go through the motions in your Romeo mink
Condition's red, disposition's blue
Why am I so attracted to you
CHORUS
Trip down the alleyway, take the back stairs
I know it's good but good isn't fair
That's what you said, flashbulb in your eye
How can I hold you whne you're waving goodbye
Hotel Queenie why can't you make some moves tonight
I saw you with the phone and I wonder if you could still talk
I picked up your photo I'm looking for your sultry stare
When did you change the color in your hair
I like your costume curls and all your la dee dahs
You never come to parties nobody knows your name
When did you change the letters in your name
I'd like to get inside your head
I'd like to play around
Everybody's getting loose
I think it's time to start the clock
With all the world beside the world
Nobody can stop the rain
When did you catch the 'D'Train
When did you die
they can't stop you in the night
twirling wildly in the light
but i know honey it won't take long
feels like it's one on one on one
there must have been a dream in you
stick and fall and follow through
but i know honey it won't take long
feels like it's much too strong too strong
but then you tell me that you can't go on
and you think you're losing sight
don't you worry
you can't go wrong inside
everything you say
leaves me full of shine
everything you say
crosses up my mind
that's everything you say
you could twist a little while
lie there fallin for a smile
but i know honey you won't give in
feels like when you begin you're in
then you tell me that you can't resist
something happens that you like
you want to know
that you've been kissed goodnight
when you know it's not for real
i know honey for one long time
it feels like you're endlessly entwined
but i know it's what you did
you can't be in a broken binge
I was sucking on the sorry sights
I was watching out for things that bite
I was tripping on my own two feet
I was feeling like I got on sleep
And my thoughts were getting unrestrained
And I was looking like Ichabod Crane
I was looking for some serious fun
Cause a bad excuse is better than none
Then it hits me, yeah it hits me
I gotta just get through it and I'll be fine
I gotta just get through these changing times
I was paranoid about the signs
They say it's just another dangerous times
I don't answer I just decompose
Cause I'm running with a painted rose
I don't relate to the things they say
And I don't want to be like them today
I know it's useless dumb and it's crass
But I guess I'm just a real outcast
Then it hits me, yeah it hits me
I gotta just get through it and I'll be fine
I gotta just get through these changing times
I gotta just get through it
I gotta just get through it
You could talk me into bitter sweet
You could grab me off the bright night street
You gotta keep it really tight and warm
You gotta keep me laughing in the storm
Well the roads are feeling hollow and steep
And I want to sew what I reap
I keep forgetting what I just forgot
I don't know if I'm ready or not
Then it hits me, yeah it hits me
I gotta just get through it and I'll be fine
I gotta just get through these changing times
I gotta just get through it
Hello, hello again
You might have forgot
the journey ends
You tied your knots
and you made your friends
You left the scene
without a trace
One hand on the ground
one hand in space
Oh you passed on mercy
You tried the rest
You gave your body
You gave your best
Stare at the green door
Livin' in the sky
You don't wanna know it
You just want to fly
(hello) hello
(hello again)
Uh-oo, mm-mm yeah
(hello) hello
(hello again)
Hello, that's right
I know (I know you're a dreamer)
Mm-mm, who's under the gun
I know (I know you're a dreamer)
who's only just begun
Hello (hello)
(hello again)
Mm-mm, I say
(hello) hello
(hello again)
Yeah
Oh when there's nothin'
nothin' left to lose
You leave it all
to fade to blue, yeah
(you want to feel) electric
(you want to feel) loose
(you want to be) eclectic
You want to call a truce
(look [echo]) at the profile
Staring at the flame
(wait [echo]) for the sunshine
Standing in the rain
(hello) uh oh
(hello again)
I said hello (hello) hello
(hello again) hello again
I say hello (hello) ello
(hello again) hello again
(hello) uh oh
(hello again)
Ooh-ooh
(hello)
Mm-mm hello
(hello)
Uh mm, I said
hello-lo-lo-lo-lo
(hello)
oh heartbeat city
here we come
well happy days
we count on thumbs
and nothing really
gets us down
as long as jacki's
back in town
i'm glad you made it
i can't complain
i missed you badly
when you jumped that train
oh jacki
what took you so long
on just a holiday
oh jacki
what took you so long
i thought you knew the way
i thought you blew away
oh heartbeat city
never stops
and all you need
is what you got
and there's a place
for everyone
under heartbeat city's
golden sun
oh heartbeat city
lights at night
keeps getting closer
out of sight
oh heartbeat city's
on the loose
better catch
Let the good times roll
Let them knock you around
Let the good times roll
Let them make you a clown
Let them leave you up in the air
Let them brush your rock and roll hair
Let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
Let the stories be told
They can say what they want
Let the photos be old
Let them show what they want
Let them leave you up in the air
Let them brush your rock and roll hair
Let the good times roll
Let the good times roll-oll
Won't you let the good times roll
Good times roll
If the illusion is real
let them give you a ride
If they got thunder appeal
let them be on your side
Let them leave you up in the air
Let them brush your rock and roll hair
Let the good times roll
Won't you let the good times roll-oll
Let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
Won't you let the good times roll
Well let the good times roll
Let the (good times roll)
Let the good times roll
Oo let the good times roll
Oo let the good times roll
Let the (good times roll)
Well, let the good times roll
(let the good times roll)
Well let the good times roll
Good times roll
(let the good times roll)
i think of you when i fantasize
the best i ever had
and i think of you when i'm driving
myself completely mad
why don't we go
why don't we go away
walkin' on the footbridge
high above the clouds
listening to your yesterday
didn't make a sound
dazzled by your sweet lips
touching on me
here comes something
you don't see
i think of you when i dramatize
the things we never did
and i think of you when i'm flying
i want to shake like Liguardia
magic mouth in the sun
train ride to the courtyard
before you can run
down at the end of lonely street
where no one takes a walk
someone's lying at your feet
and someone's getting off
[Chorus:]
just gimme some slack
the seven floors of walkup
the odor musted cracks
the peeping keyhole introverts
with the monkeys on their backs
[Chorus]
the rooftops strung with frauleins
the pastel pinned up sails
the eighteen color roses
against your face so pale
[Chorus]
i want to float like Euripides
all visions intact
i'm alright with Fellini fiends
tripping over the track
(chorus)
down at the end of Lonely Street
where no one takes a chance
someone's in the cheap light
and someone wants to dance
five in the mornin,' all alone in your room
door locked tight, private moon
no faces to face, no one to blame
nonexistent inside this frame
(?) take it on the run
oo, yeah take it on the run
uh yeah
there's a cheetah walkin' high
liquid whispers, dragonfly
charleston booties on painted toes
drop the knot ivory soul
(?) take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
because the good life is just a dream away
I said the good life is just a dream awaaaay
choke emotion, or lose control
chicken encounters fill your bowls
the lonely crowd is decomposed
lost obsession, future froze
well, take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
oo yeah, take it on the run
take it on the run
take it on the run
take it on the run
take it
cause the good life is just a dream away
yeah, oo the good good life is just a dream away
oo, oh well the good good good good life is just a dream away
just a dream
just a dream
just a dream, dream away
(?) the good good good good life
the good life is just a dream away
just a dream
just a dream
dream away
I felt the pressure and I passed it off
I heard your glockenspiel pounding soft
I climbed on top of you, you said get off
Must this drag on forever
I tripped and stumbled in the dead of the night
Flashing my endless stream of kryptonite
I lit my brain with rainbow crystal lite
Must this drag on forever
Then things go so quite
Like I should not be here
You said I had to try it
Don't let me interfere
Just get me out of here
Your waxy face is melting on your lap
I sat there trying to crush a ginger snap
Your scream was sounding like a thunderclap
Must this drag on forever
Your coconut windows hid the light so well
Your testimony put me in a spell
You look so wasted that I could not tell
Must this drag on forever
Then things go so quite
Like I should not be here
You said I had to try it
Don't let me interfere
Please help me out of here
Must this drag on forever
Must this drag on forever
Must this drag on forever
you were trying to be cute
and it didn't work out
you were trying to be charming
and it didn't come off
you were trying to be clever
a big waste of time
you were trying to get rough
but you're waiting in line
[Chorus:]
you can't make it with the down boys
they don't hear a word you say
you can't make it with the down boys
just stay out of their way
you were trying to be sharp
but they couldn't wait
you were trying to be eternal
but that didn't rate
you were trying to be smooth
you're rough on the edges
you were trying to be hysterical
well i still ain't laughing
[Chorus]
you were trying to be in
but they left you out
you were trying to be in
two different worlds
you were trying to be in
oscillation in shame
you were trying to be in
but you're lost in the game
they got a line on you
little bit of trouble too
you got some jets inside
cherry lips and delirious eyes
you get in trouble
and it keeps you down
double trouble
you get in trouble
when you come to town
double trouble
they better chain your hands
spread some evil
pick and pan
you got some jets inside
you have to live
with those empty eyes
you got some jets inside
broken promises
Here In My Car
I Feel Safest Of All
I Can Lock All My Doors
It's The Only Way To Live
In Cars
Here In My Car
I Can Only Receive
I Can Listen To You
It Keeps Me Stable For Days
In Cars
Here In My Car
The Image Breaks Down
Will You Visit Me Please
If I Open My Door
In Cars
Here In My Car
I Know I've Started To Think
About Leaving Tonight
Although Nothing Seems Right
In Cars
I Know I've Started To Think
City to city we travel in vans from
The East to the West Coast
To places abandoned.
These bars filled with smoke
never treat us as strangers.
The road is uncertain
But we'll take our chances.
We drive and take in this world from the window.
We roll, and move to the beat of an engine
We stall, another day spent by the side of the road.
Pick yourself up and continue to roam.
This life is not for everyone,
it's harder than you know.
Cheap hotels and couches
Have become a second home.
Follow those who came before
you did and paved the way.
You can't do this forever
but until this ends we drive,
and take in this world from the window.
We roll, and move to the beat of an engine.
We stall another day spent by the side of the road.
Pick yourself up and continue to roam.
I can't stay here forever,
watching the cars go by.
I can't stay here forever,
watching the road wind down.
And I remember what you say before I leave.
Good luck and come home in one piece to me.
If this is what you do then kill it.
We made this decision.
Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live
In cars
Here in my car
I can only receive
I can listen to you
It keeps me stable for days
In cars
Here in my car
Where the image breaks down
Will you visit me please?
If I open my door
In cars
Here in my car
I know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
Pull me from the wreck
My mangled vessel
Sits beneath this rooted passing
If money wasn't so expensive
Maybe life wouldn't cost less
We can see everything you are on the inside
And we apologize, next time
Life don't play your number
Remember your friends
We want....
An easy out
Get in the car
And fix the mirror
If leather didn't feel so good
Maybe life wouldn't be so bad
Swerving down the road towards my destiny
Into the tree that catches me
Oh, the way we are
We complain with pleasure
As everybody waits for life to call their filthy number
Roll up the windows
And close your eyes
Stop with the going up
Go down
Next time life don't play your number
Remember your friends
Pull me from the wreck
My mangled vessel
Sits beneath this rooted passing
If money wasn't so expensive
Maybe life wouldn't cost less
We can see everything you are
Oh, the way we are
We complain with pleasure
As everybody waits for life to call their filthy number
Oh, the way we are
As everybody waits
As everybody waits....
If leather didn't feel so good
Maybe life wouldn't be so bad
We can see everything you are on the inside
You can go ahead and leave us
Just give us the keys
Just give us the keys
Here in my car I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live
In cars
Here in my car I can only receive
I can listen to you
Keeps me stable for days
In cars
Here in my car where the image breaks down
Will you visit me please
If I open my door
In cars?
Here in my car I know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
Cars
(Bart Schoudel)
Accidentally found out what you're all about
I was happy 'til now but there's always a doubt
That I get when I think everything's going well
But still we might not have met
I think you detached
From our last shouting match
Oh but still I am arguing most with myself
What else is new
Cars around the corner are taking the lead
And I can't find it in me to take what I need
The last one outside will be trying to get in and get everything that you have
Oh I think you were lucky for being naive
Cause I've seen my future in the path that you leave
While you're killing the messenger because he's me
You'll see but you won't believe
Cars around the corner are taking the lead
And I can't find it in me to take what I need
The last one outside will be trying to get in and get everything that you have
Cars around the corner are taking the lead
And I can't find it in me to lay where I bleed
The last one outside will be trying to get in and get everything that you have
I'm trying to get in and get everything that you have
I'll keep trying to get in and get everything that you have
Marley: Yo that is
P: Funky! That's him in his new Alfa Romeo
M: Yo that is real real fonkee, yo yo what up, G Rap?
G Rap: Yo yo what up niggas?
M: Yo what up man? You big, you're big, nigga! Yo...

P: All I got is a little Benz, man, I don't know...
M: Naaah! He try to be fly
Yo G Rap how you feel about how girls just be on yours
Cause you got a fonkee car?>
A convertible Porsche is what I'm striving to drive
DJ Polo of course, drives a ride that's live
With a AMG kit, in his pockets a mitt
And if you try to steal his shit, by a pitch you get bit
But yo one day you will see me in a fly Lambourghini
On my way to the beach picking up girls in bikinis
I'm a hip-hop star and yo I'm bound to go far
And all the girlies jump right on it
When you drive a dope car
Polo: Yo word, yo why don't you dial it, man?
Operator: Your call cannot be completed at this time
The mobile customer you have dialed may have reached a destination
Or traveled beyond the service area
Please try again later
P: Yo G Rap, yo man, Marley's never in his car
G: Yo word man yo we just gotta catch the brother in his other...
Dope car (x3)
Cars
Dope car>
Yo I see cars driving by me looking milky and shiny
Tires made from Pirelli getting all of the heinies
Now a few of my friends they drive a Mercedes Benz
All the seats are stitched and hemmed, MCM and gold rims
The people are looking, all the ladies are hooking
All the cops get shooken, suckers?girlfriends get tooken
Candy-apple Corvette, Benzy Boss in effect
And you know you get respect cause they're breaking their necks
To see your car
Yo, cars
The dope car
Dope cars>
Accidentally found out what you're all about

Look @ those cars just passing by us,
With a fairy tale look look in corner of there eyes
Look at those cars... just look

You'll find inside a frown
You gotta turn it around
Just take a look
Nanananananana Na Na
Oh ya

Yea yea, I like my beat down low – low rider
So I can drop it down low – flow rider
It's better than yo hoe, no liar
You hear the beat drop when I go by ya
Guy rolled by in the blue donc
Got it soundin like the club in the fuckin trunk
Seen him at the after party, pull up in the front
He know what a bitch need, he know what I want
It's lookin like a video, VMA
He want, it's evident, DNA
All my pretty hoes, all my pretty hoes
Standing up in the Jeep on them 24's
The beat knockin, who is it?
Girl ass lookin like she hide 2 midgets
2 teams in the new Benz
Call me boy, I'd like to call you my new friend

Can I sit up in yo backseat?
Next time I'm on Twitter can you add me?

Drop it down bitch, drop it drop it down bitch
Throw it over like a picture on a mount bitch
And when you're coming I can hear you from a mile it's
Young boy and you know it
