Jughead don't know what he's missin'
That redhead don't know what he's got
Betty should pick her friends a bit better
Ronnie knows what she's doing
What's hot is hot
Yeah, what's not is not
Veronica
See what she's got on
What you're doin's wrong
Or maybe it's too right
She dry strokes me with her wardrobe
Her tan shape just makes me sick
Her profile just takes away my weak legs
Aw, she's so smart
She's a pistol
Veronica
See what she's got on
What you're doin's wrong
Or maybe it's too right
She don't know me
She don't care to see me
Page after page I'm turnin'
Time after time I'm burnin'
Howdy Miss Lodge, you little cock tease, clothes horse, poor little rich girl
Why don't you come over here, so I can raise your little skirt up, over your narrow hips,
Oh, and spank your perfect ass, spank your perfect ass, spank your perfect ass.
Your little blonde friend can join right in.
Can you imagine
What she smells like?
Can you imagine, hey,
How her skin feels?
So well oiled
Such a bitch, so ready
My god, how my mind reels
Oh, how my mind reels
Veronica
Hey, I'd like to make you blush
Bet your carpets plush
I've probably said too much
You don't know me
You don't care to see me
Page after page I'm turnin'
Frankie had this old two door
An Oldsmobile seventy-four
It rode six inches off the ground
It must have weighed ten thousand pounds
But when Frank left it just broke down
Like our young hearts
We worked together every day
And rode together every night
We kept the cooler in the trunk full
We spent our summers in that car
It was our bedroom and our bar
Like our young hearts
And we're riding
In that beat up car
Just riding
With our swollen hearts
Yeah, I'm missin'
I miss that beat up car
Like our young hearts
I think about it still
Like how we'd drive
All night
Driving after dark
Gonna meet our girlfriends at the park
And then we'd go
Riding... Riding for the sake of riding
We're riding for the sake of riding
Riding for the sake riding
Riding for the sake of...
Riding in that beat up car now
Our young hearts, our young hearts swollen shut
Well, I think that
I think that mine is still now
I think you, I think you miss it too
Like my young heart
Is she just a tease?
Did I vent her ass around?
I heard her voice on the radio
I don't know how, she was talking to me
I heard her voice on the radio
They come into my home
I don't know how, I know she needed
Her song was there just to reach me
It didn't take me long to find the pathway to her door
When I walked into her home
She was there all alone
When I walked into her home
I don't know why she wasn't glad to see me
When I walked into her home
She was there all alone
When I walked into her home
I don't know why she wasn't glad to see me
Sweet Sally Brown, just give me
Never wanted something so bad
Don't try and walk out the door
Sweet Sally Brown, forgive me
But I know that you need me
Don't pull the trigger on love
Now I'm here because you want me
Now I'm here because you asked me
You know I'll do the right thing
Don't try and get away
All I wanted was to touch you
That's what you sung to me to
Now I'll have to wonder why my
Heart burns with shame
Just put the gun down
I know you'll never hurt me
Just put your fear away
Come into my arms
Just put the gun down
I know you'll never hurt me
Just put your fear away
Come into my arms
Sweet Sally Brown, just give me
Never wanted something so bad
Don't try and walk out the door
Sweet Sally Brown, forgive me
But I know that you need me
Don't pull the trigger on love
Just throw your fear away
Are you a witch?
Did you mean to pull the trigger?
Did the right one fall?
Hell I thought I was somebody
Is this the way
That we belong together?
Is this the way
We're gonna stay
I wanna stay forever
Sweet Sally Brown, just give me
Never wanted something so mad
Don't try and walk out the door
Sweet Sally Brown, forgive me
But I know that you need me
Don't pull the trigger on love
Just throw your fear away
Yeah, throw your fear away
I snuck in your bedroom
To steal some change for booze
But all I found were love notes
From another... boy
I need a drink
I hit the streets
I'm in a bar
Tryin' to kill myself
With Old Bushmills
Beer and wine
'Cause I know when I get home you won't be there
You won't be there
And if you are
All you're gonna do is lie to me
You can't change the world
And I won't try to change you
So it's just another bottle
Yeah, one more drink
In a station, in D.C.
A huge black man
His eyes are full of love
I think of you
And is it any wonder
All our years have brought
Is a sort of pain
And I'm sure I can do without
You can't change the world
And I won't try to change you
So it's just another bottle
Yeah, let's all have
Yeah, one more drink
You'll make nice
And I'll play dumb
Walk on me
And asked me to come back
I guess I will
Or I'll be drunk again
Worrying about the spins
Yeah, I plan it that way
So I don't have to wonder
Wonder, where you are
So... it's one more bottle
Another drink before I hit the streets
In my bed, all sick and alone
Mother told me, yeah she told me
I'd meet girls like you
She also told me to stay away
You never know what you'll catch
Just the other day I heard of a soldier's falling off
Some Indonesian junk that's going around
I said your mommy's alright and your daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ayyy
Father says, "Your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married, mommy served
In the WACs in the Philippines"
Now I had heard the WACs recruited
Old maids for the war
But mommy isn't one of those
I've known her all these years
I said your mommy's alright and your daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ayyy
Whatever happened to all the season's
Loser's of the year
Every time I got to thinking
Then they'd disappear
When I woke up, mom and dad
Were rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling
Got my Kiss records out!
I said your mommy's alright and your daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ayyy
Away, yeah
Away, yeah
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
We're all alright
We're all alright
We're all alright
We're all alright!
We're all alright!
We're all alright!
When I stumble
Yeah, I'm the one whose lame
If you fall down
Why call out my name?
Your mouth it moves to call my name
When you go down
You got no one else to blame
Unless I'll make you somehow know I feel the same
Unless you put us down again, I'll give the same
So what?
And if you fail you'll say that I'm to blame
Yeah, right
Hey, Sunflower
When I stumble
Yeah, it comes as no surprise
Convince yourself
With your little lies
Your mouth it moves to form your lies
Instead of crying, why don't you get wise?
Unless you rate me so much, now I feel the same??
Unless you put us down again, I'll give the same
Who cares?
And if you fail you'll say that I'm to blame
Yeah, right
Yeah, Sunflower
Can't put out
And you won't shut up
Can't put out
And you won't shut up
If I poisoned you
Oh, tell me I'm to blame
If you live or die
To me it's all the same
Hey, Sunflower, can't you...
Grow in a mind up there, we're the same (??)
Unless you make your summer now I feel the same
Unless you put us down again, I'll give the same
Who cares?
And if you fail you'll say that I'm to blame
Yeah, right
Oh, Sunflower
Give a little garden for the growing seeds
There's gotta be someone who'll pull the weeds
You come to insult a man of my wealth
The only harm done, you did to yourself
You're sinking, you're falling, you're failing
She calls it "sugarcane"
And she says, and she says,
"oh, but it tastes the same,
As heaven", in her throat, as it drains
Strips off, her knee high socks
Plaid wool skirt, it won't hurt
Spreads lipstick on her
Full wide mouth
North and south
Painted nails
Reach for a smoke
And i have one more coke
Wired, catholic, all girls school
You're so cool
So bored, you know
I'm not crazed
And i'm not mad
I'm just so sick
Of watching pretty girls
Doin' ugly things
Pretty girls, ugly things
3 o'clock
Girls come outta school
St. teresa is a nice place for you
Get in the car and start to undress
Your face is quite a pretty mess
And i just take your hand
"how are you today?"
And i'm facin' what you say
"hi... oh, i'm fine."
"but i'd be just a little more..."
"if i could get..."
"oh, can i get?"
"what i need..."
"oh please, can i get..."
"just a little more?"
Sarah
You spilled the tequila
You just laugh and say
"it was all dead weight; won't get us straight"
Mom and dad, away from home
We're on their bed, between the mirror
You just grin
IT HAPPENED
IN THE BROAD DAYLIGHT
SO UNEXPECTED CAME THE KNIFE
A CHILD'S SCREAM
SLICED THROUGH THE AIR,
BUT NO ONE CAME
OR SEEMED TO CARE
THE MAN'S DESCRIPTION
DID LITTLE GOOD
A LOCAL STRANGER
FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD
THOSE LITTLE KIDS
OHH, HE LEFT BEHIND
WITH THEIR MANGLED LIVES
AND THEIR TORTURED MINDS
SINCE HE DIDN'T SEEM TO CARE
THEN DON'T YOU THINK IT'S ONLY FAIR?
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
LET NO MERCY SHOW
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
DON'T LET HIM GO
THE MAN WAS CAUGHT
AND BROUGHT BEFORE A JUDGE
WHO HAD JUST RETURNED
FROM A THREE DRINK LUNCH
HIS LAWYER SCREAMED "YOU MUST SET HIM FREE"
AND OFF HE WENT
ON A TECHNICALITY
SINCE THE LAW DON'T SEEM TO CARE
THEN DON'T YOU THINK IT'S ONLY FAIR?
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
WHY SHOULD PARENTS CRY?
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
HOW MANY HAVE TO DIE?
THE MOB ASSEMBLED
SMOKE FILLED THE AIR
AND MARCHED IN ANGER
TO DO WHAT'S FAIR
TO BRING TO JUSTICE
THIS SOULESS THING
AND SHOW THE OTHERS
WHAT EVIL BRINGS
NOW BEFORE YOU SHAKE YOUR HEAD
THINK IF IT WAS YOUR CHILD INSTEAD
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
TELL ME WHAT YOU'D DO
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
PRAY THIS ISN'T TRUE
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
WHY SHOULD PARENTS CRY
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
HOW MANY HAVE TO DIE
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
WHEN SLIME ESCAPES THE LAW
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
WE'LL EVEN UP THE SCORE
CALL FOR STREET JUSTICE
LET NO MERCY SHOW

Break into the warehouse on graduation night
Drunk, laughing, fall around
Oily rags in our hands
Matches fallin' out of our pockets
Yeaaaah!
Keep the car runnin'
Don't leave the lights on
Got a job to do
Won't be back until it's done
Grab a beer
Watch 'em all burn
Burn down, down
To the ground
Feel the heat
Hear the sound
You got slow
Before it starts to burn
Use a little more gas
Just a little bit spun
Start it off
Keep the car runnin'
Don't leave the lights on
Got a job to do
Won't be back until it's done
Grab a beer
Watch 'em all burn
Burn down, down
To the ground
Feel the heat
Hear the sound
You got slow
Before it starts to burn
Use a little more gas
Just a little bit spun
Start it off
Slow...
Burn...
Got a light?
Let's watch it burn!
WATCH... IT... BURN!
WATCH... IT... BURN!
WATCH... IT... BURN!
Yeaaaah!
Keep the car runnin'
Don't leave the lights on
Got a job to do
Won't be back until it's done
Grab a beer

Burn down, down
To the ground
Feel the heat
Hear the sound
You got slow
Before it starts to burn
Use a little more gas
Just a little bit spun
Start it off

Got a light?
I don't wanna see your head caved in
I can't stand to see them wheel you in
Why'd you go and do that to your head?
Are you so goddamned miserable
You'd feel better off if you were dead?
And then the tears from my eyes
Makes the road all wet and hard
For you to drive
You never had a chance to see
The car, she's comin' straight at you
Hey, what are you gonna do?
Look out!
I can't stand to see the shape you're in
I won't be there when they bring you in
I can't believe you'd leave me all alone
I won't believe you're not comin'
Aww, comin' home
And then the tears from my eyes
Makes the, road all wet and hard
For you to drive
You never had a chance to see
The car, she's comin' straight at you
Hey, what are you gonna do?
Watch out!
I can't stand to see your head caved in
I won't be there when they wheel you in
Why'd you go and do that to your head?
Are you so goddamned miserable
You'd feel better off if you were dead?
And then the tears from my eyes
Makes the, road all wet and hard
For you to drive
You never had a chance to see
The car, she's comin' straight at you
Hey, what are you gonna do?
Someone call a doctor!
Hey, you're dying and you don't know
Hey, you make me hate myself
'cause you're my only brother
And i can't say, "i love you"
And this is pretty hard
Aww, you're not around, so i can't hold your hand
So i crawl
I crawl inside your sleeping bag
Oh and i, don't think he's gonna make it
Make it home alive
This one is for my daddy
Oh, you know me, Daddy
Where you been hiding lately?
I ain't seen you lately
I miss your shoes on the doorstep
Whose doorsteps they on now?
I'm not trying to start a fight, here
I don't want to fight you
Is this my fault?
Is this my fault?
Well, Daddy, where have your shoes been?
Is this my fault, some kind of son's sin?
You've been gone for such a long time
You've been gone at just the wrong time
I know you like the ladies
Oh, you're a fool for the ladies
What about your home and your babies?
Well, I ain't a baby
I'm tired of watching the cars pass
I fell asleep at my window
Is this some sort of punishment?
Did I hurt your feelings?
I miss your shoes on the doorstep
Please be there when I get home
Oh Daddy, where have your shoes been?
Is this my fault, some kind of son's sin
You've been gone for such a long time
You've been gone at just the wrong time
Hey Daddy, please tell me
Hey Daddy, where have your shoes been?
Please say that this is not my fault
Something I did
Some kind of son's sin
You've been gone for such a long time
You've been gone at just the wrong time
Hey Daddy, please tell me
Slept on my glove last night
Waited all day to see if you'd make it home
Today was our day
Or have you forgotten?
Hey Daddy, I'm just a kid
Take a minute, think about what you did
I'm starting to feel a bit cheated
Come home and make me feel needed
Please come home and make me feel needed
Hey Daddy, please tell me
Oh Daddy, where have your shoes been?
Please say that this is not my fault
Something I did
Some kind of son's sin
You've been gone for such a long time
You've been gone at just the wrong time
Won't you believe it
It's just my luck
Won't you believe it
It's just my luck

Baby, you sweet as watermelon
Ruby red, down to the rind
Oh baby, you sweet as watermelon
Yeah, ruby red, down to the rind
Oh, why you gotta leave me hungry
When I love that fruit so fine
You know life runs after me
Get in after me
Like Pavlov's Dog
I'm like a bell that's ringing
Start drooling at the mouth when you see me
Leave all the work to me
Untie your big bone
Yeah, you're remora
I did remora
I had remora
I'm your mom up on the porch
Come and get it
Accomplish something for yourself
If I'm not back yet
Eat a sturdy, perfect host
To keep you well fed
For a parasite like you
Leftovers will do
Goodness, you're remora
I do remora
Yeah, I had remora
More, more, more remora
More, more, more remora
More, more, more remora
Come on let us play along, yeah
Stay away from my mouth, yeah
You know I would hate to hurt you
I'll make sure to leave the scraps out
Yeah, you're remora

Hey touch me, i am just an old man

Hey cut me, i am such a sick man
I guess it's best this way
Hey, jackknife, you got all the answers
Give some back to me
And watch me die
I'm slidin' back and forth
I'm a coward
I'm losin' my control
I'm a pansy
Hey touch me, loosing, tired, beaten
Look at me and cry
Hey cut me, i just want to lay down
Long enough to die and die and die
Hey, jackknife, this is all your fault now
Laugh and watch me die, just watch me die
I'm slicin' back and forth
I'm a coward
I'm losin' my control
I'm a pansy
Cut, me, jackknife
Hold, me, jackknife
Save, me, jackknife
Lover, just hold me close
Lover, caress me
Lover, just hold me tight
Lover, just hold me close
Don't let me go
Just pull me tight
'cause i'm already dead
'cause, lover, i'm already dead
Now, jackknife
My girl has a redroom
Beneath her man's bedroom
Knows I love her ass
Shakes it for me now
I got my mind of her red
Mind of her red
Mind of her red
I got my mind of her red
I was sick before but I'm better now
I was sick before but I'm better now
I was sick, I was trapped inside her redroom
Now I'm better
Now much better
Now I'm better
Now I'm better, now
She won't let me touch it
She won't let me kiss it
Keeps it clean for her man
Shows me all she can
Mind of her red
I got my mind of her red.
Mind of her red.
I got my mind of her red.
I was sick before but I'm better now
I was sick before but I'm better now
I was sick, I was trapped inside her redroom
Now I'm better
Now much better
Now I'm better
Now I'm better, now
You fucked with me for so long
You love to have me hold on, don't you?
But, I can only stroke it so long
Before I grow balls big enough to say, "so long"
Mind of her red
Mind of her red
Mind of her red
I got my of her red
I was sick before but I'm better now
I was sick before but I'm better now
Poison lips as sweet as pie
A poison heart that's black inside
Poison lips as sweet as pie
A poison heart that's black inside
Poison lips as sweet as pie
A poison heart that's black inside
Poison lips as sweet as pie
A poison heart that's black inside
Get back, get back you motherfucker
Get back, get back I'm goin' red
Get back, get back you motherfucker
Get back, get back I'm goin' home
Walkin' on eggs shells
Kickin' around in boots too big
Makin' me think it's someone else
Fuckin' with my head
Pullin' my hair out fist and pump(?)
Think I've found the road to hell
Livin' in your dream
Enough to make a good man bad
Screamin' away from the place you live
Now that I've left you
Everything fits where it belongs
Everyone is lonely, lonely
Not me, I am only, only
Swingin' from the highest tree
Hung by my own rope, you see
Well, no such luck and got no home
And not one bed I call my own
I just want to be left alone
But there's no place that I call home
Everyone is bored and boring
Not me, I am drunk and roaring
Come on, have a drink with me
Whiskey cures insanity, yeah
Well, no such luck and got no home
And not one bed I call my own
Well, I could use some time alone
But there's no place that I call home
Small dog
On a short leash
Yeah, I'm a small dog
Sic 'em boy!
Well, no such luck and got no home
And not one bed I call my own
Well, I just wanna be left alone
But there's no place that I call home
Small dog
Short leash
Yeah I'm a small dog
On a short leash
Everyone is wrong
And I'm the one that's right
And everything's all wrong
But everything's okay, like it was today
It doesn't take much to feel this way
You're bored
You're not like me
I'm the luckiest man that you'll ever see
I'm on fire, but unharmed
Another day I've managed to keep the farm
So short, won't last long
Forgotten all about the moth
That old fag had given me
Kept the cocoon safe and warm in my kitchen
Until the day that she broke free
But she would not leave me
I guess she thought I was...
I guess she thought I was her...
I guess she thought I was...
I guess she thought I was...
My love won't let her learn to fly
My heart won't let her say goodbye
If she don't leave me she will die
My heart won't let her learn to fly
She hung around outside for days
Even though she knew no cage
Kept her off the roof at night
Trying to keep her warm
I could not stand to let her go
And I could see her dying
I guess she thought I was...
I guess she thought I was her...
I guess she thought I was...
I guess she thought I was...
My love won't let her, learn to fly
My heart won't let her, say goodbye
If she don't leave me, she will die
My heart won't let her, learn to fly
Yeah, go on now and leave me
Go on now and leave me
Go on now and leave me
Go on now
Come on and say it
Come on and say my name before you leave me
I want to hear you say it one more time now
One more time again before you leave me
My love won't let her learn to fly
My heart won't let her say goodbye
If she don't leave me she will die
My heart won't let her learn to fly
My love will last until it dies
Gonna spend the night in mama's kitchen
Gonna spend the night with you
If someone wants to hurt you
I'm the one they must get through
Everybody needs a friend
And baby, I'm the last one that you have
You don't have to be a target
Everybody's gotta die
Brother before you do
You're gonna know the reason why
Everybody needs a strong arm
And I got the strongest one around
Yeah if you want to make it to the morning light
Goal is not to win, it's simply to survive
But you've got that target painted
My mouth don't work for talking
That's not the way I speak
Not saying I'm the strongest
Not calling you too weak
Right now you need a friend
And brother, I'm the only one that you have
And if you wanna make it to the morning light
Goal is not to win, it's simply to survive
But you've got that target painted
Oh, right between your eyes
So keep your head down and hide
I'm gonna keep you alive to see the morning light
There's nothing cruel about me
I'm gonna keep you clean
Don't care just how I do it
That's what a brother means
You've been down for me before
And I think I like you best left alive
And if you want to make it to the morning light
Goal is not to win, it's simply to survive
But you've got that target painted
Right between your eyes
So keep your head down and hide
I'm gonna keep you alive to see the morning light
I'm gonna take care of you
In a bad way, someone has to
You can't just walk around
With that target painted
Right between your eyes
So keep your head down and hide
I'm gonna keep you alive to see the morning light
Life taking, widow makin'

Life takin', widow makin'

Life takin', widow makin'

Hush child, or I'll close your pretty mouth
Lolita spread your pretty legs so daddy can see just where he wants to play
The sun shines through your fancy dress
Put your little body on display
And I didn't mean to hit you so hard
I didn't mean to push you to far away
I didn't mean to hurt you so bad
I didn't mean to push you to far away
for you to come back home
Lolita, stay, oh I can't hold anybody else
Lolita, go, I can't stand to see you play around
Every scar I leave on you
It reminds me of how it used to be
You're just a little play thing
How come you mean so much to me
Stay with me, runaway, stay with me, hide away
Stay with me, get away
Stay with me, go away
Say with me, run away
I want you to go, I want you to stay
Lolita, stay, I can't hold anybody else
Lolita, go, I can't stand to see you play around
I'm gonna tell you the way it's gonna be from now on
You're always going to be my little girl
Lolita, you, you can't stay, cause I won't keep you
And, baby, you, you can't go, cause I won't let you
Maybe I've asked for too much
Maybe I shouldn't care
But why the heaven would you wanna stay
And why the hell would I want you
Yeah, I really want you
And I tell you, it doesn't...
No matter what you ask, I'm gonna let you down
I'm never, ever, ever gonna be forgiven
Only when I'm sure she's sleeping will I look
She said that only when there sleeping
She'll slip away
There's just one more
And I'm fairly sure
That she would wait up all night for me
It's good to know
There's someone who cares
And maybe someday take care of me
I won't bring you down
I won't bring you down
And only when I'm sure she's sleeping will I look
She's said that only when there sleeping
She'll slip away
We saw the clouds
And all of the kids who knew my name
There's just one more
And I'm fairly sure
She would wait up all night for me
I won't bring you down
I won't bring you down
I won't bring you down
I won't bring you
Won't bring you down
I'm not gonna hurt you
And I'll try real hard not to push you
And I promise that I will
And I'll try real hard
And I'll try real hard
Johnny
Lay your sickle down
Cut this shit out
Lay your sickle down
You're my only boy
That wouldn't break a fly
I don't choose her
It came undone that night
I know you're mad
You feel betrayed, confused
Take your mama's side
You're the one thing
I can't stand to lose
Blue-eyed boy
Your hair so blonde it's white
Come out of the darkness
And come into the light
Your face is like a chain
You bring to lead me home
Time and time again
You're the only one
Pretty boy
The road is alone and empty enough without you lying in it
My boy
The road is already but sad enough without you dying in it
Johnny
I'm so glad to shine
Wipe away your tears
Let your bottle shine
Your overalls aren't much against the cold
Not much anger
Can your pockets hold
Pretty boy
The road is sad and hot enough without you lying in it
Yeah, boy
The road is alone and empty enough without you dying in it
My boy reminds me
Of all discrepancies
Between how it is
And how it's supposed to be
Here I am, Lord
So take another one
Cotton's perfect
But he's the only one
My boy reminds me
Of all discrepancies
Between who I am
And who I'm supposed to be
Blue-eyed boy
Hair so blonde it's white
Let your eyes shine
Come back into the light
I need to get Cotton back
If we get Cotton back
We'll get Cotton back
Hurt the dog, get the dog, grab the dog
Scratch my ass, scratch my ears, scratch my head
Please play with me, play with me, play with me
Awe, but Jessie
It's cold outside, and I'm not coming home
I don't know where to be, when the morning comes
and Jessie you're a good dog, please don't follow me
Just go on home
I ran away, dog tagged along
I lost the dog, it broke my heart
Please stay with me, and play with me, stay with me
Awe, but Jessie
It's cold outside, and I'm not coming home
I don't know where to be, when the morning comes
and Jessie you're a good dog, please don't follow me
Just go on home
Jessie, don't follow me
Jessie, go on home
Jessie you're a good dog, such a good dog
Jessie you're a good dog, such a good dog
Jessie you're a good dog, such a good dog
Jessie you're a good dog, such a good dog
Imaginary lovers
Never let you down
When all the others turn you away
They're around
It's my private pleasure
Midnight fantasy
Someone to share my wildest dreams with me
Imaginary lover
Imaginary lover
Your mine, oh yeah
Imaginary lovers, don't feel what you feel
And real-life situations lose their thrill
Imaginations unreal
Imaginary lover
Imaginary lover
Your mine, all the time
They'll always be there when you need
Satisfaction guaranteed
Imaginary lover
Imaginary lover
Your mine, all the time
Your mine
Your mine, mine
Your mine
Your mine
Your mine
Your mine
I have imagined you're in love all the time
I have imagined and you're a love out of sight
When I was a boy
Hey, I thought that souls should help
That god was a bible friend (?)
Hey, where will you be in the end?
You filled me with your words
You shake my hand
But I know where you sleep
Yeah, that's not an idle threat
Well, I know where you sleep
Just when you rest your head
So go on and rest your head
And close your narrow eyes
The damage has been done
Yeah, you cut me, down to size
Well, I'm still on my feet
You're never gonna get what you want from me
But I know where you sleep
Yeah, that's not an idle threat
And I know where you sleep
Just when you rest your head
Yeah, I know
And you can't stop me
And I know
That you're gonna try
Well, say goodbye
To all the little things you keep
Because I know
I know where you sleep
And I plan
And you may think I'm fussy
You make me a nothing man
Sure you go on thinking that
You're a child lost in his box of sand
Sure, stop me
If you can
But I know where you sleep
Yeah, that's not an idle threat
Well, I know where you sleep
Just when you rest your head
Your move
You're afraid
Stop me
Well, I know
You're gonna try
Say good bye
Say good bye
If I stay too long
Would you ask me not to go?
When I squeeze to hard
Would you stop and tell me so?
I never seem to know
If I push to far, babe
It just don't make things right tonight
If just tonight, everything's all right
I hope I die tonight
Everything's too perfect now
My breath away
Goin' in one direction-- you
Hope I die tonight
A bitter fruit to swallow
Are you afraid to take it whole?
A simple truth to follow
A simple truth we'll never know
The simple things we just let go
I bite my tongue to speak now
Afraid that this will go too fast
These perfect moments never last
And if I die tonight
That would be all right with me
My breath away
Goin' in one direction-- you
Hope I die tonight
Everything is easy here
Hope I die tonight
Better that than without you
Hope I die tonight
Why is my heart always angry
My heart is always filled with rain
Your kisses seem to warm the rain
Don't believe in morning
Never see it anyway
There is no tomorrow
And there never was today
Let's burn tonight, not fade away
I hope I die tonight
Everything's too perfect
Now my breath away
Goin' in one direction-- you
Hope I die tonight
Everything is easy here
I hope I die tonight
Better that than without you
I hope I die tonight yeah
Everything's too perfect now
Remember in your car?
You played a song for me
I didn't know it then
I think I loved you just a little
Why did you have to go?
The years were all a storm
Me, I rode it clean
Without roots, you got washed away
So many ways we die
The friends we leave behind
You never thought of home
But now you...
But now you feel it comin'
Been this way before
Were you kicking as you fell?
The secrets that you know
Was this a...
Is this a birth or dyin'?
Your goin' home
And it is such a strange place
And I'm gonna miss this
Still I can feel you goin'
And now your goin' home
I hear you ask yourself
If this is all there is
But in your room alone on the chair.
How did you justify this?
Stumble towards the light
Did it take your breathe away?
Did you still feel you were right?
Or could you...
Or would you now deny this?
Not enough rope
Not enough time
Not enough man to keep you from swingin'
Your goin' home
And it is such a strange place
And I'm gonna miss this
Still I can feel you goin'
Yeah, not enough time
To keep you, to keep you
Not enough earth
Inside you, inside you
Yeah, not enough rope
Untie this, untie this
Yeah, not enough man to save you
Don't leave me hangin'
When you get home
Light a light for me
I'm smart enough to know
I'm comin' right behind you
Your goin' home
And it is such a strange place
And I'm gonna miss this
But still I can feel you goin'
Yeah, not enough time to keep you, to keep you
Not enough earth inside you, inside you
Yeah, not enough rope, untie this, untie this
Yeah, not enough man to save you
Get in the car boy.
1 - 2 - 3 - 4
Light and motion
Empty highway
Moving forward
Feeling my weight
1 - 2 - 3 - 4
Sound and tension
Teaching me time
Holdin' me down
Breaking my ass
There is no light
There is no light
Death is the hard song
There is no light
Death is the hard song.
Why make me a sinner when I do just what you say?
Why call me a killer if I give myself away?
I give up
1 - 2 - 3 - 4
I am reborn
Feeling new weight
I'm born of motion
Born of hate
There is no wrong
There is no right
There is no light
Death is the hard song
Why make me a sinner when I do just what you say?
Why call me a killer if I give myself away?
Why make me a sinner when I do just what you say?
Why call me a killer if I give myself away?
I slam in sideways through the door.
Sleek, but not sober.
Something in me open, unfinished.
I pull the sheet back off your unconscious form.
Shed the liquor from my coke bottle.
I get what I came for.
I find closure, I achieve [ ? ]
I take the matches from my pocket.
Yeah, I strike one.
I count to ten.
And I let the matches fall.
I let the matches fall.
I'd like to think that I'm important
I'd like to think I count for something
Please tell me it's not vanity, 'cause
Sun comes up, yeah
It comes up every morning
Sun keeps shining
Yeah, with or without me
Sun comes up, yeah
It comes up every morning
Did I forget and leave the lights on?
Are these the right words for song?
It doesn't matter much to me, 'cause
Sun comes up yeah
It comes up every morning
Sun keeps shining
With or without me
Sun comes up, yeah
It comes up every morning
Tell me I won't be forgotten
Yeah, lie to me, the truth is rotten
Please cater to my sanity, 'cause
Sun comes up yeah
It comes up every morning
Sun keeps shining
Oh, with or without me
Sun come upstairs
It comes up every morning
Numbed a few, yet warmed the many
I numbed a few, yet warmed the many
Just another of too many
Numbed a few, yet warmed the many
Just another of too many
Hell, I know that I'm not important
And I don't care or count for nothing
I know it's all my vanity, yeah
It's my vanity
Sun comes up, yeah
It comes up every morning
The sun keeps shining
With or without me
Sun come upstairs
It comes up every morning
It keeps on rising, keep on shining
With or without me
Oh, with or without me
Well now, I guess you found me
Let your body cup around me
Have your daddy up and down me
Let my enemies surround me
Was I dumb to stand so tall?
Was I dumb to stand at all?
Is that what brought you here?
Is that what draws you near?
Well, you ain't seen nothing yet
Yeah, watch how low I get
Yeah, get much lower yet
No depths where I won't go
Thank god I'm built so low
In a way I guess you know me
But no way have you outgrown me
Go on and reap you've sown me
Girl you know I owe you only
Was I dumb to stand so tall?
Was I dumb to stand at all?
Is what I sense now fear?
Is that what draws you near?
Well, you ain't seen nothing yet
Yeah, watch how low I get
Yeah, get much lower yet
No depths where I won't go
Thank god I'm built so low
Afraid of heights
Afraid to go higher
Get down closer to the wire
Thank god I'm built so low
In a way I guess you had me
Now you think you can tell me what's bad for me
Well, how sad for me
Turn away because you know me
Turn around because I'm built so low
Thank the serpent for the apple
Eve was bored before he made the show
Come on deeper to the bottom
Sink your ship, it's better down below
Check around before you meet me
Know this one before it's time to go
Burn this one because you know me
Burn this one because I'm built so low
Thank god I'm built so low
It's built low
Built so low
Built so low
Change the pain
Of what you feel
You keep it inside
You made it real
Twenty times to get it
Twenty times to give
You kept it inside, long enough
Enough to let it live
I feel no shame
For what I do
Mistakes the same
The hate rings true
Never had no heaven
Had too much of hell
I never cared what I did
It's probably just as well
I've heard it all before
I know nothin's gonna change
I've heard it all before
I know nothin's gonna change
I've heard it again and again
I know nothin's gonna change
Aw, change the way I feel
Change the pain
Of what you feel
You keep it inside
You made it real
Twenty times to get it
Twenty times to give
You kept it inside long enough
Enough to let it grow
I've heard it all before
I know nothin's gonna change
I've heard it all before
I know nothin's gonna change
I've heard it again and again
I know nothin's gonna change
Aw, change the way I feel
You swing up to me acting like everything's jake between us.
It starts off easy enough,
but you don't get more than one chance,
before I don't know you anymore.
It's easy for me.
and I don't miss you that much.
But I can tell by the hurt in your eyes.
It's only gonna take a little push,
to make all the hurt blossom up inside of you.
Yeah, I'm caught in my own trap
I'm caught in my own trap
Caught in my own trap again
I feel no pain
I feel no shame
You'll hurt yourself
When you turn on me
Yeah, I've heard it all before
I know nothin's gonna change
Hey, your mom and dad
Can't teach you like I can
I'm goin' back and forth
Back and forth again
And I'm wrong enough
To say how right I am
And nothin' will take away your pain
And nothin' will take away your shame
And nothin' is ever gonna change
Big man, big hands
Strong back, strong mind
Golden glove, at 16
Good looking like Steve McQueen
I'm dumb, He's mad
I push to fight
He says, "Let's go"
I said, "All right"
Hey, I said, "Okay"
Yeah, Poppa bought a pick-up truck
With bottle tops and that's enough
A beat up piece of Chevrolet
Blue and white rustin' away
Aww, still we ride
Yeah, just father and son
Small child, front seat
Mouth in dad's ear
As they drive that truck
In the night, in the night
Looking up at the night
Through dark windshields
Buster Browns won't reach
I ask to drive
And he says, "Okay"
Well, Papa bought a pick up truck
With bottle tops and that's enough
A beat up piece of Chevrolet
Blue and white rustin' away
Aw, still we ride
Yeah, just father and son
Cool Hand says, "I'm a man who can eat fifty eggs"
And, "Sayin' it's your job, don't make it, make it right"
We laugh, we cry
We say, "That's right"
He says, "Let's drive"
We say, "All right"
Yeah, we said, "Okay"
Papa says, "Let's go for a ride"
"Oh, We'll grab a bite to eat"
"Hell boy, might even let you drive"
I said, "Hey pop, oh, turn up the radio"
"Aw, 'cause that's my favorite song"
"Hey, that's my favorite song"
As we went along
Oh, roll down your window
As we went along
Yeah, just father and son
Hey, just like we were
Yeah, a father and son
Hey Papa, "Dairy Queen sounds good to me"
And Papa, "Pull off here, I've got to take a leak"
And Papa, "You're gonna have to kill me, to keep me down"
And Papa, you laugh when I say,
"Move it up here, Dragline"
Oh, Dragline
Stole her skirt
Left the band
You slashed the tires
On our van
You're the kind of person that I would go to jail for
The kind of things I hate, well, other people live for
Traitor is a game that I would never play
Traitor is a name that I would never have
You won't do this again
You won't do this again
You won't do this again
You won't do this again
Death to traitors
Yeah, death to every single one
Death to traitors
It hurts to be let down
Death to traitors
Yeah, kill the ones you know
Death to traitors
You won't let me down
Stood up, instead
You raped her out on highway 40
You picked a fight
He broke your nose
He stained your shirt
You're the kind of person, that I would go to jail for
The kind of things I hate, well, other people live for
Traitor is a game that I would never play
Traitor is a name that I would never have
You won't do this again
You won't do this again
You won't do this again
You won't do this again
Death to traitors
Death to every single one
Death to traitors
It hurts to be let down
Death to traitors
Yeah, kill the ones you know
Death to traitors
You won't let me down again
We took you in
Made you part of our family
You took our trust
And made it part of your credentials
The world would be better off without you
So answer, friend, a simple question
Don't you know who we are?
That's the way of the world
You're gonna need us again
That's the way of the world
You're gonna need us again
Well, that's the way of the world
You won't do this again
Et tu brute
Have you misplaced your knife?
Judas, what's this?
A friendly kiss?
Death To Traitors
Yeah death to every single one
Death to traitors
It hurts to be let down
Death to traitors
Kill the ones you know
Death to traitors
You won't let me down again
Never been one, never be one
Hurts to be let down
Never been one, never be one
Kill the ones you know
Death to traitors
Yeah, death to every single one
Death to traitors
Well, I'm another dollar short, another day late
I'm always wrong no matter what I say
Truck got a flat and you got mad
Throwing beer cans, whatever you had
Walk to town alone, I didn't want to care
I feel better having you near, so climb in
I'm in a small cafe still outside of town
Not even sure you want me around
Two fifty down on a dollar tab
Couple more bucks and I will call a cab
And climb in, do do do do
Climb in, do do do do do do
I'm riding into town on a flat tire
I wanna make it to you somehow, climb in
Climb in, the time is ours to hold
Climb in, before we get too old and all
Yeah, climb in, the time is ours to hold
Climb in, before we get too old and all
Not a single thing to do but think about it twice
Six pack on the floor could use a little ice
Wrote it in blue, and rolling the dice
Being with you is just another vice
Riding on the shoulder back into town
Tryin' to get you to climb on in
Yeah, I'm rolling into town on a flat tire
I'm gonna make it to you somehow, climb in
Climb in, the time is ours to hold
Climb in, before we get too old and all
Yeah, climb in, the time is ours to hold
Climb in, before we get too old and all
Climb in, before we get too old
Before we get too old and all
So what if the trucks got a flat. It still runs
Just need to drop it into second
Pull on the side of the road, take things kinda slow
Wind comin' in through the window feels cool on my face
Radios' playin 'baby, where'd our love go'
When I see you walking all mad up ahead
You turn around surprised
I pull along side you, kick open the door
You turn to me and smile and then, boy do I feel good
And if the loving don't kill us
Ahhh the sun beats down
on my tan on my well fed body,
And the fisherman at the end of the pier
will strike a chord of curiosity with their thick lines
Yeah, they've caught something big
And they ask me if "I could lend a hand?"
chorus
I want you to see, what I, I could not see
and I want you know, what I, I could not know
the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen, and she smiling
back at me
she was eight feet long and she weighed four hundred
twenty pounds and I named all her children in hopes that
they would obtain some degree of her perfection and it would
take them all two years to hit the water
chorus
she, she's not coming back
and thats why I sing this song!
the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen
Outside, the lines are down
Fran has cut deep
Sky and the ground, look like they're ripped
Hundred year old trees, out in the street
Blow wind, tell me my future
Get down, Moses
I knew the boy from a house down the way
Good looking kid, strong for his age
Live line, on the ground, snaking its way
Blow wind, tell me my future
Get down, Moses
Please God help me to forget I'm alive
Its a high price to pay for a misunderstanding
Its a high price to pay for where I was standing
Only 18 and just hard of hearing
Blow wind, tell me my future
Get down, Moses
I was in his ground, helped clear the way
I saw the line. "Get out of the way!"
Moses stood up, "What did you say?"
Please God help me to forget I'm alive
It's a high price to pay for a misunderstanding
It's a high price to pay for where I was standing
Now I'm only 18 and I'm just hard of hearing
Won't you keep him alive
Long enough, to say goodbye
Won't you keep him alive long enough till I say goodbye
Carolina Power line
Cut free and cut him so quickly
Carolina Power line
Cut free and cut him so deeply
Blow wind
Tell me how it all ends
Tell me my future
Blow wind
And tell me how it all ends
Tell me my future
Blow wind, tell me my future
Get down, Moses
If this my last storm
Yeah, if this is my last storm
Yeah, if this is my last storm
I took you down to the station
And I bought your ticket
Lord, I hate to see you go
And as you walk away
Please don't turn around, 'cause
I know you'd hate to see me cry
But I put you on that bus
And as it pulls away
You know I'd really rather be...
Oh, anywhere but here
Nowhere else but here
Anywhere but here
I wish I could take you there, now
Sit around the hotel room
We're playing cards for nickels
It should always be this way
But I'm just a man
And you're a bit too crazy
And being together's always hard
So I put you on that bus
But as it pulls away
You know I'd really rather be...
Oh, anywhere but here
Nowhere else but here
Anywhere but here
I wish I could take you there, now
'Cause I sure as hell don't wanna be here
Oh, now that you're gone
Oh, now that you're gone
Oh, now that you're gone
So now you're gone
And it's my fault
And now that you're gone
I just had this thought
That I can hardly wait to see you
I can hardly wait to be...
Oh, anywhere but here
But I'm just a man
And you're a bit too crazy
And being together is always hard
Lord knows I'd rather be...
Oh, anywhere but here
Nowhere else but here
Anywhere but here
I wish I could take you there, now
'Cause I sure as hell don't wanna be here
Oh, now that you're gone
Oh, now that you're gone
Oh, now that you're gone
I can hardly wait to see you

Gonna spend the night in mama's kitchen
Gonna spend the night with you
If someone wants to hurt you
I'm the one they must get through
Everybody needs a friend
And baby, I'm the last one that you have
You don't have to be a target
Everybody's gotta die
Brother before you do
You're gonna know the reason why
Everybody needs a strong arm
And I got the strongest one around
Yeah if you want to make it to the morning light
Goal is not to win, it's simply to survive
But you've got that target painted
My mouth don't work for talking
That's not the way I speak
Not saying I'm the strongest
Not calling you too weak
Right now you need a friend
And brother, I'm the only one that you have
And if you wanna make it to the morning light
Goal is not to win, it's simply to survive
But you've got that target painted
Oh, right between your eyes
So keep your head down and hide
I'm gonna keep you alive to see the morning light
There's nothing cruel about me
I'm gonna keep you clean
Don't care just how I do it
That's what a brother means
You've been down for me before
And I think I like you best left alive
And if you want to make it to the morning light
Goal is not to win, it's simply to survive
But you've got that target painted
Right between your eyes
So keep your head down and hide
I'm gonna keep you alive to see the morning light
I'm gonna take care of you
In a bad way, someone has to
You can't just walk around
With that target painted
Right between your eyes
So keep your head down and hide
I'm gonna keep you alive to see the morning light
