Of this latter group, two (8, 14) are performed by Mr. Wrong, Rob Wright's solo project, one (13) attributed to the Nomeansno side-project The Hanson Brothers, and one is a cover of a Nomeansno song (10) by the Vancouver, BC-based band Swell Prod.

Embarrassing interview, Washington Redskins Quarterback, No means No, Jay Gruden, Colt McCoy
While Michael Fabiano serves up the top waiver-wire options in fantasy football each week, I am here for those who need to dive a little deeper. Depending on your league, you may have no shot at the guys on Fabiano's list. Whether it's because of huge rosters, too many members or a low priority on the waiver wire (because you rule at fantasy), sometimes the top options simply aren't available. With that in mind, here are some deeper waiver-wire targets if you're scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Blue Heelers 4x20 No Means No Nick hasn't shown up for the start of his shift and a worried Maggie reports to Tom that he is not at the watchhouse keeper's residence either. Later it is discovered he has been at the home of Danielle Carter, an ex-prostitute at the centre of a major criminal trial in Mount Thomas. While this draws sniggers from his uniformed colleagues, PJ fails to see the humour. It will be hard enough to get a conviction for the rape of an ex-crow without Nick's personal involvement complicating the case. Dash is appalled to receive a love letter from the crusty old farmer, Keith Purvis, only to find this is yet another of Nick Schultz's practical jokes. Nick thinks it's Dash getting her own back when he receives a note from a ""love sick secret admirer"" suggesting an assignation in the park. Nick ignores the letter only to receive a much more threatening missive; shredded underwear smeared with blood.

Skiddle 2013-06-03Nomeansno (sometimes stylized as NoMeansNo or spelled No Means No) is a Canadian progressive punk rock music group originally from Victoria, British Columbia and now located in Vancouver.
The band has never had, nor have they seemed to pursue, strong mainstream success, but they do have a devoted underground following in North America and Europe. They tour fairly often on both continents and maintain a dedicated fan base.
The band was formed in 1979 by brothers Rob Wright (bass guitar, vocals, and occasionally guitar) and John Wright (drums, keyboards and vocals). Their name derives from an anti-date rape slogan. For their first four years the duo's music would seem to be influenced as much by jazz and progressive rock as punk rock. The musical press described their earliest recordings as "Devo on a jazz trip, Motörhead after art school, or Wire on psychotic steroids." Nomeansno have been credited with being an influence on, and perhaps even the genesis of, math rock.
The brothers Wright began recording as a two-piece in their parents' basement in 1979. These recordings, heard on their first two self-released 7"s, consisted of full rock band arrangements and had a new wave, warped-pop sound, different from subsequent recordings. When, in the early 1980s, the duo began gigging simply with bass, drums and vocals, the present form of their distinct sound slowly took shape. The songs they played in this period are documented on the Mama LP (re-released in 2004 on their own Wrong Records).
Jello Biafra (born Eric Reed Boucher; June 17, 1958, Boulder, Colorado) is an American musician, spoken word artist and leading figure of the Green Party of the United States. Biafra first gained attention as the lead singer and songwriter for San Francisco punk rock band Dead Kennedys. After he left the band, he took over the influential independent record label Alternative Tentacles, which he had co-founded in 1979 with Dead Kennedys bandmate East Bay Ray. Although now focused primarily on spoken word, he has continued as a musician in numerous collaborations.
Politically, Biafra is a member of the Green Party of the United States and actively supports various political causes. He ran for the party's Presidential nomination in 2000, finishing second to Ralph Nader. He is a staunch believer in free society, which is not to be confused with libertarianism or voluntary society (voluntaryism), who utilizes shock value and advocates direct action and pranksterism in the name of political causes. Biafra is known to use absurdist media tactics, in the leftist tradition of the Yippies, to highlight issues of civil rights and social justice.
=================================
The day everything became nothing, I was standing underneath a
streetlight, wishing I had a cigarette. I can't recall anything
unusual about it. If there was something in the air, if the skies had
clouded over, I wasn't aware, I was too bored to care. No thunder
roared. No lightning cracked. No missiles rained from the sky. This
was no sneak attack. There was just suddenly this awful lack. Things
had changed, that's for sure.
The day everything became nothing, you couldn't put your finger on
what had gone wrong. The alleys were still dirty; the garbage still
smelled; there was no panic in the streets; just a lot of grief--in
people's faces, in their eyes--a mixture of horror and total surprise.
This was no apocalypse. No one heard a voice from the sky, there were
no miracles at the 7-Eleven, no one screamed, no one even asked why.
It was just like everything had somehow, quietly died. So let it die!
I can't recall much of what happened next. I was on my way to visit
this woman I knew. All we had in common was good sex, and now I
couldn't even remember her address. A group of us, just strangers,
got together and we formed a committee to discuss the problem. We
talked about things like assured mutual destruction and emotional
responsibility. I couldn't remember my name, so I called myself Bob.
=======
No more. No way. No more. I say.
You do it. I don't. You will. I won't.
STOP IT!
That's all. The end. All Gone. All spent.
Enough. No more. Go on? What for?
STOP IT!
No more, No use. No bright excuse.
You do. I don't. You will. I won't.
STOP IT!
NO! MORE! YES! NOW!
========
They say the eyes are the windows of the soul
but I love all the little dark holes
in your BODY BAG.
Your little willie, he's oh, so pretty,
and those titties, and those titties
in the BODY BAG.
Nobody knows you and nobody wants to.
Willie's poised to dive into flesh,
something tells me he will leave a mess
in the BODY BAG.
When we kiss my eyes are closed,
my lips are full, I breathe through my nose
in the BODY BAG.
Nobody knows you and nobody wants to.
See the children play in the mud,
moulding balls of faces and blood
from the BODY BAG.
All praise for corporal flesh;
the smell of love, the smell of death
from the BODY BAG.
Is it a womb or is it a tomb?
A sac of water that's quiet and warm,
a complex shape's beginning to form,
on marble slabs you're flat on your back,
all colours fall into the basic black
of the BODY BAG.
The creatures of earth are countless and strange,
open your lips and tell me the name
of your BODY BAG.
====================
Beauty lies in the eyes
Behold the eyes where it lies
If beauty lies in the eyes
Behold the eyes the beast
You, you're beautiful
You, you're beautiful
Beauty talks but beauty lies
Beauty wakes the beast inside
A feast of eyes where beauty walks
Behold the eyes the beast
You, you're beautiful
You, you're beautiful
Beauty struts and beauty flaunts
'cause this is what the eyeball wants
Beauty doesn't stand a chance
Behold the eyes of the beast
Those hungry eyes on beauty's parts
Those burning eyes on beauty's parts
Those burning eyes so dark and hot
Dark and hot dark and hot dark and hot
===========
I like some bodies. I hate some bodies.
With some bodies I know I could go either way.
I'd like to have somebody some way.
I've seen them moving, I've seen the breathing,
and all of the things that my body can do.
Because I'm a body, I wan't a body, too.
Somebody like you, or you.
Give me the muscle. Give me the bone.
Give me your mind. Give me your soul.
Give me the blood. Give me the flesh.
And give me the rest. C'mon, give me the rest.
GIVE ME ALL THE REST.
Somebody warned me, "When you get a body you get it all."
Another body warned me, "When you get a body you get everything."
"Cause when you get a body you get some nice things,
but you get some things that aren't so nice at all, no!"
But that's allright by me, I just want some body.
Some body that will touch me. Touch my body.
Some body I can touch. I want to touch your body.
After one body what could come?
There's so many styles, so many to choose from.
I'll hunt the streets, try to select.
I could become a body collector.
Some bodies! Some bodies!
Some bodies, I hate 'em. Some bodies, I love 'em.
Just give me somebody. Anybody won't do.
I need somebody, somebody like you.
I'm doing nothing wrong. I just want to feel.
I just want to feel. I just need to feel.
Can you help me feel?

Just you and me just you and me
And there will be no other brother
Brother
We'll knock back a few and talk about life

He thought he was putting his things in the right place
Everything had a name and everything had a place
But now there's so much of this stuff around
That when we look down on the ground
There is nothing there to see
Well, you're probably saying to yourself,
"I guess they buried it somewhere else"
Wait a minute, wait a minute, Please wait a minute
Just bend your neck, just crane your neck, just twist your neck
But don't break your neck
And look above you, look above you
Above us is the garbage, below us is the earth
Above us is the garbage, below us is the earth
And each day, each hour, each minute, each second
We're crawling, crawling, clawing, falling
More, more, more, more
I don't buy your explanations
Your short sighted expectations
Stop complaining, I don't care
(I told you the way it had to be)
I will fuck with you
If you try to fuck with me
(So don't try it)
Look at this face, i'm the one you love
The white light of truth from heaven above
An angel of shit, fucker
It's no road to ruin
Not a final solution
Just the grand execution
Of our Joyfull Reunion
You squeezed the world in the palm of your hand
But when it lay in pieces
Did you give a damn?
(Why should you?)
Don't play dumb and don't ask why
With a blink of my eye you are cut and dried
And hung up –bye, bye
It was here, where did it go
I don't know, I don't know
Anything any more
In this ball of confusion
Through these painfull convolutions
There's no clear-cut solution
Just a Joyful Reunion
What are you trying to escape
Your name calls me
Your mirror is my gate
(smash, through the looking glass, fucker)
I am your hated enemy
The friend that makes you start again
Just when you thought it was finally the end
Hit me hard, tear me apart
To rise again is my special art
You can't kill me
With all the things that cut me down
Shake, brake, mutilate – grind me into the ground
I'll grow up again with first rain, just the same
We will raze the institutions
Make all new resolutions
Rebuild constitution
Joy....
Jesus was a terrorist
Enemy of the state
That's what the romans labeled him
So he was put to death
He died for his beliefs
What's changed today?
Today bible-thumping cannibals
Reap money from his name
Buy cable networks & power
With old ladies' checks
If jesus saw pat robertson
What do you think he'd say?
Tax-free they re-write our laws
And sick 'em on you
Women don't control their bodies
TV preachers do
Censor everything from bathing suits
To science books
From the schoolroom to the bedroom
They want our thoughts - or else
They treat us like the romans
Used to treat the christians
Een some church going folks are scared
Modern catacombs of fear
Built with money, power and threats
Rock'n'roll is labeled porn
Sell a record, you're under arrest
Instead of fighting aids
They try to stop us having sex
They brag that they won't quit
Till they take dominion over our lives
Is freedom of speech such a terrorist act
Is spiritual peace such a satanic threat
Believe what you want
But we'll fight to keep
Living in detente where buildings grow so great
All the windows are black in secret state
Muttered voices with points that they must make
Rules of order that we'll negotiate
Living in detente is so enterprising, everyone loves the suspense
Living in detente is just where I want to live
You won't find it on any map cause it
Lies somewhere between peace and wartime, it's
One up on the Joneses, a vicious cycle where
Overthrow is check, overkill is mate
Living in detente i so mesmeriszing, erverone walks in a daze
Living in detente where questions make dancers of people whos stories aren't straight
It's so quiet, it's so cool, it's so cold
Life-like, a place to live and clothes wear
Life-like, starting here and ending there
Life-like, maximising time and space
Life-like, a happy smile upon my face
All this and so much more
Light floods the open door
Blood抯 rushing to my head
I抦 standing on the edge of
Life-like, crawling up out of the slime
Life-like, standing in the check out line
Life-like, eyeing all the pretty girls
Life-like, dreaming of another world
Where are my freinds today?
What gannes shall we play?
In their hearts I can't see
Nothing looks back at me but life-Iike
A million souls await the call to rise and sing
They stand and fall while in the clouds the angels count the myriad things
Divinity and grace have etched like lines face of God
But here it's very odd
His miracles abound but they arg drown sound of tapping fingers
Life-like, a face for every double take
Life-like, the genuine, original fake
Life-like, in the lies you tell to me
Life-like, a reasonable facsimile
Open your hand to me
In your palm I can read
Long life and happiness
It's just like all the rest, it's life-like life
In the morning I walk beneath a shining
My steps reverberate in beat with the m humanity
Those murmuts fill my ears but the voice never heaf
As I walk along that busy street and though there抯 nothing to seek
"Life in Hell" by Nomeansno
Foolish girl in swelling woman
Here's a blunt knife for your bosom
Here's the devil's hand to shake
Watch what the other tries to take
Hell
Life in Hell
By your loving disposition
you let him get into position
and train his rising gun upon
the cervix of your inner sun
Hell
Life in Hell
Can you not distinguish pain?
red nail and red shame
Woman, world in one complete
your heart's awake, your mind's asleep
you spread your inner sun to make
a den for some sly, basking snake
Which burns stronger?
I can't tell
The gowing sun?
Or fiery Hell?
Hell

Here it is lonely
Here where I lie
Here it is empty
Here in my heart
Here there is no one
Here where I am
Here it is empty
Here in my heart
Here where I lie
Grab the handle

Chairman Mao was a great cook, he fel all of China
One billion
Two billion
Three billion
Four billion
Five billion
Six billion
Served, served, served, served
Would you like fries with that, ma'am ?
How 'bout a sundae ?
Here it is lonely...
Quiet es a mouse
Gentle es a lamb
Happy es a clam
Dead es a...
Doorknob
Roses am red
Violets are blue
I hung myself
So fuck you
DEAD BOB
Button up your overcoat
When the skies are gray
Put a rope around your neck
And kick the chair away
My father was of the sky
My mother was of the earth
And I am a stupid cringing
Ignorant fucking little goof
DEAD BOB
Everyone is so polite
So completely awfully nice
I'm going to get a butcher knife
And cut you all a juicy slice
Mary had a little lamb
And the she had some veal
She stuck her finger down her throat
And threw up...
Everything
I will leave a little note
Hanging from a knotted rope
Please excuse my thoughlessness
I am sorry for the mess
ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?
the dead walk.....
do you hear that sound?
do you hear that sound?
like fingers scratching underground
do you hear that sound?
that slamming door?
i've fought it all my life
but i can't fight it anymore
it's catching up, i'm fucked
a dead duck, shit out of luck
how do you hide from
something you have found?
do you hear that sound?
that scratching sound?
is it better to be lost or found?
you can't ignore it
you can't talk it away
you can't drink it away
you can't fuck it away
it's catching up, i'm fucked
a dead duck, shit out of luck
give me aslylum, let me in
i am mad, you are my only witness
there are some things that never die
things that never really were alive
i've shut them out
i've slammed the door
but i can't keep them back
anymore
it's catching up, i'm fucked
All that you fucking got why don抰 you give it to me
That Raiders baseball cap would sure look good on me
I walk the streets at night and in my fantasy
All of the girls I pass have got the hots for me
I want a million bucks, I want a limousine
I want a jet to fly me to the Caribbean
You抮e gonna see my face on all the magazines
You抮e gonne hear me scream
I gotta gun, I抦 gonna finally be someone
I gotta gun, I抦 gonna cut somebody down
I gotta gun, I抦 gonna finallly be someone
I gotta gun, I抦 gonna shoot somebody
My Pop is dead, my Mom si shooting methadrine
All that I know is see it on TV screen
I kill the fucking starts, that is my fantasy
That fucking phoney geeks don抰 mean alot to me
I got no special love for reality
I got no fucking views on foreign policy
I抦 gonna go dontown, I抦 gonna have some fun
I抦 gonna shoot someone
I gotta gun ...
The AM-PM guy is bleeding On the floor
The city cops are kicking in the swinging

It's time to have sonne fun
I gotta gun ...

Nobody loves me. Like I do
Self pity

Do? I can't do anything. What
Can I do?
Self pity
I'm touching myself. But it disgusts me
I'm touching myself. But it disgusts me
Self pity

The wheels are turning, everything is fine
Her mouth is open end every moan is mine
Another dark hole in a clear, blue eye
And when I look there, what do you think I find?
Something's happening here, but what it is ain't exactly clear
My temperature's beginning to rise, may I throw away my disguise?
It's not love that I bring to you, it's a weapon, a lie and a tool
And the fantasies that fill my mind, they're not tender and they're not kind
They're not kind, they're the kind, they're the kind
That kill
(chorus)
In the sunshine I pass all scrutiny
But when the night comes there is a change in me
For every locked door there is a secret key
And in every dark room there is a light to see
Turn it on, flip the switch, she's not a person, she's just a bitch
And the only joy that comes to me is in the perfect execution of my cruelty
Let me tell you what I see when she is stretched out naked in front of me
I see who I am, and I'm afraid because it's not a man, it's not a man, not a man
It's a beast not a man
Lt was such a shame, I'd seen her around but I never know her name
He'd been in trouble from an early age, a problem child full of fear and rage
In the school yard at the back, a security camera caught this violent act
She'd come willing to him, she only wanted to he bis friend
He ripped away her shirt, he called her a whore, said that she was dirt
She was pleading for her lifa, she was screaming, "Why? Why? Why?"
He grabbed her by the hair, threw her down and kicked her there
She couldn't believe her eyes, es he reached in bis pants end pulled it out-It's a knife!
It's a knife! It's a knife! It's a knife!
Is that a cock or a knife?
(chorus)
Are you getting what you want? Are you getting what you see?
are you getting what you want?
and are you getting what you need?
i've heard it said that love is truly sacred
but nowhere is it written that it's guaranteed
who decides what will happen?
and who decides who for?
is this just a crazy little game?
or is this just an ugly little war?
are you sick and tired of the same old things?
or are you happy enough?
when does so much become so little?
when does too little become too much?
when does so much become so little?
Can you picture me standing there?
I see it can you picture me way up there?
I see it now my whole life
I see it now my whole damn life
Teresa, what would you die for? What would you die for?
What would you die for, teresa? What would you die for?
Teresa, give me that knife give me
That knife teresa, give me that knife give me that knife teresa
Can you picture me there?
There I m almost there
I'm almost there I m almost there
Teresa, what would you die for? What would you die for?
What would you die for, teresa? What would you die for?
Teresa, give me that knife teresa, give me that knife teresa,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's been said before but I'll repeat it
Don't you feel like you've been cheated?
It's been shoved down your throats, you eat it
They say it's true, you believe it
Chorus:
Small parts isolated and destroyed
See the big boys play with their toys
There is one thing I will never do
Trust you
There's one thing that I have learned
All God's children will get burned
And if it comes down to me or you
Who do you think I will choose?
What's the deal? 50% of the door?
Well, then, come on in, come on in for more
What's that you say, we get a guarantee?
Then fuck right off, you mean nothing to me
Isn't this a sweet romance
So why don't you get off your ass and dance?
"What about me? What about me?
Can I get in for free? Can I get in for free?
You know me, you remember be
Can I get in for free? Can I get in for free?"
Come on in! Come on in for free!
Don't mind the heat, don't mind the smoke
All that screaming? It's just a joke
All that screaming? Nah, it's just a joke
Come on in! Come on in for free!
Come on in! It's on me!
The joke's on me
I'm tired of being close and feeling abused
And all those deep discussions make me wanna puke
And you're all going to see a lot less of me
I'm not the comrade that you hoped I'd be
Chorus
Everybody's in the groove
Filling the dance floor, two by two
(Hey boy, I might want to fuck you)
(Hey girl, I might want to fuck you too)
There's liquor on your breath and magic in the air
Now we're really going to get somewhere
This is for all you girls and boys
Small parts isolated and destroyed
It's too late baby
It's too late man
Oh baby, oh baby
You've been beaten up insode
You've been beaten up inside
That's the high point of your life
That's the high point of your life
I was beaten but I died
(Or is that just another lie?)
It's been said before but I'll repeat it
Don't you feel like you've been cheated?
It's been shoved down your throats, you eat it
They say it's true, you believe it
Small parts isolated and destroyed
I'd rather die than be a toy
There is one thing I will never do
First I tolf to myself there was no more than the sound
Of the wind through an open door, and if no one
entered it was no crime ?at least it was none of
mine, and all isaw I kept at bay, an empty heard
in an emtpy space, there was no reason for me to
live, I had nothing to give, nothing to give
I closed my eyes and to my surprise my heard
was beating I was still alive
Was there really nothing I could do?
No, it can抰 be true!
I抳e been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long
I抳e been lying to myself, lying to myself
And it can抰 go on
Cause I抦 lying in state, I抳e been lying in a state of grace
I抦 lying in state
I抳e ben lying to myself and it can抰 go on
At first I tried to blame the world for all evils
That were unfurled, flags of sin blowing in the
Wind over church and state, the rich and the
Great, but when I listened all I really heard was
My own voice and my own words, sometimes
Begging for love, sometime screaming with
hate, screaming with hate
I don抰 trust that voice in my head, it抯 not mine it抯 the voice of the dead
And why do you ask me what I think is true?
I learned it all from you!
I抳e been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long
I抳e been lying to myself, lying to myself and it can抰 go on
Cause I抦 lying in state, I抳e been lying in a state of grace
I抦 lying in state
I抳e lying to myself and can抰 go on
In the end, you are my only friend and all I see is you,
and all I have to give, my friend, I will give it to you.
Who do I mean? Who am I talking to?
How could it be more plain to you? Wake up.
Look in your heart. Who are you? What is your name?
If I take a shit in your perfect world it抯 only so
You抣l know me by my smell
And though you turn away like you don抰 understand
You know all too well
You don抰 want to look, you don抰 want to touch
You don抰 want tp pay cause it costs so much
You just smile and wish me well
Well, you can go to hell!
Cause I抦 lying in state, I抳e been lying in a state of grace
I抦 lying in state
I抳e lying to myself and can抰 go on
One summer day
She went away
Gone and left me
She's gone to stay
She's gone, but I don't worry
Because I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm going down to the hardware
Gonna buy me a hacksaw
Gonna free my heard
Cut that pain away
She's gone, but I don't worry
Because I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm going down to the graveyard
Gonna buy me a tombstone
Gonna leave this town
Lived here too long
She's gone, but I don't worry
Because I'm sitting on top of the world
==============
Our floating houses, on molten granite
Our liquid planet
It is a home for us all
I'm firmly planted, my earth is solid
I feel a presence
But there is nothing at all
I wanted something, down here is something
It's really something
But there's nothing at all
Slowly melting
We're
Slowly melting
Seed to tree, earth to birth
We are surrounded
We flourish in the decay
We mark the seconds and count the hours
Cross off the days
Of what is slipping away
We start out loudly and go in circles
All things coverging
We find an end to each day
Slowly melting
We're
Slowly melting
The sun is burning, the earth is turning
The earth is dying
It's slowly melting away
We start to finish, the fuel exhausted
And once I had it
But now it's passing away
If there is nothing, what is that presence ?
I'm slowly melting
But what is slipping away ?
Slowly melting
We're
I have to have you far too much
I have to grab I have to touch
I have to feel your every curve
I have to stir each little nerve
I want the pleasure I want the pain
I want to overload my brain
I'm going SEX MAD
I want to squeeze your living flesh
Oh, to be buried in your chest
Or steamy breath and gripping bone
I may be lost but not alone
I'm going in riot coming out
I'm going in not coming out
I'm going SEX MAD
I stare at everything that moves
I look all over pick and choose
Well I don't want just anyone
I only want just everyone
I know it's not for me to take
I think my mind is going to break
I'm going SEX MAD
My self control is very fine
Considering what's on my mind
But I don't want to hurt and hate
I simply have to copulate
The more I see the more I want
The more I see the more I want
I'm going
SEX MAD SEX MAD SEX MAD SEX MAD.
First the urine test - now this
First the urine test - now this!
Why do all the best technology advances
Always wind up in the worst possible hands
Through dna analysis
We may one day conquer disease
A "perfect" baby every time
By mapping and manipulating people's genes
Cosmetic surgery before you're born
Know in advance what you'll die of
Everyone is useful and the same
Swimmers bred like horses for olympic teams
Life insurance? be serious!
You have to get your genes screened first
Toxic chemicals? fumes at work?
No sweat! get a gene transplant
Otherwise you'll lose your job do
You wanna wind up out in the streets?
And raise your children in campgrounds and shelters?
And beg to eat
There's too many sharks in the gene pool
Too many chewed up bodies on the shore
Too many sharks in the gene pool
Too many leftovers rotting all around us
First the urine test - now this!
Why do the best technological advances
Keep winding up as...
Uniform hybrid species
For fresh-looking pest-proof food
An apple can sit on the shelf for years
When we irradiate the molecules
But where did the nutrition go?
And what's taken it's place?
Slipshod tampering with science
Out of control factory farm eugenics
Slaughterhouses in lowa
Filled with tumor-infested cows
Failed experiments hidden 'til sold
To your local school lunch program
Grade D, but edible
Our food, our life, our attitude
Suffocating in what we refuse to recycle
Time bombs fester in every town
Billions of dollars spent every year
Searching for a cure for cancer
Why not spend that money instead
To wipe out pollution that causes the cancer
There's too many sharks in the gene pool
Too many screw-ups washing on shore
Too many sharks in the gene pool
Too many preventable accidents among us
Meryl Streep... where are you?
Where did american know how go
Why do japanese build better stereos
Is it 'cos our best minds can't get a job
Except when they help make toys for the Pentagon
Germ warfare, more bombs
Germ warfare, more bombs
Our whole economy's based on fear and death
How long can we get away with this?
And we live here
Instead of better health we get a.i.d.s.
Instead of nourishment we get steroids
The most popular selections at celebrity sperm banks
Are sports heroes
Gap widens between the haves and the have-nots
Rich and powerful breed only with themselves
We all know what happens when too much of this happens
The offspring just ain't real bright
How else can you explain
The erosion of talent and the vision thing
To the point where the best that they can come up with
For our future role models and leaders
Are vicious blind machines
Like Albert Gore and Dan Quayle
Why do the best solutions and advances
Get thrown away in the worst possible hands
There's too many sharks in the gene pool
Too many carcasses washing on shore
Too many sharks in the gene pool
Avalanche of toxic guts all around us
We're incompetent as human beings
Even worse at playing God
Wrong people
Right place
Ruling class
Gets the only pass
To board the ark
For outer space
In 2001
All is what it seems
It means just what it means
The sky is blue and the grass is green
In all the little bourgeois dreams
Will I make the baseball team?
Will somebody love me?
Will the ground stay beneath my feet?
And the sky above me
Will I pass my final exams?
And finally make the grade
Will I be forever young?
Or slowly start to fade
All is what it seems
It means just what it means
The sky is blue and the grass is green
In all the little bourgeois dreams
Daddy died and I don’t know why
Mom sits alone at home and cries
She will never be quite the same
She took all the blame
My older brother moved away
Where he is I cannot say
He always liked to be alone
He never writes, he never phones
Will I pass my driving test?
And get my very first car
Will I ever know who I am?
Or who you are
Will I work at the corner store?
And save a dollar every day
Will I ever really know?
The price I have to pay
All is what it seems
It means just what it means
The sky is blue and the grass is green
In all the little bourgeois dreams
I drive around the whole day long
Just to make a living wage
At night I sit and watch TV
Like a monkey in a cage
When I was young, the summer sun
Lasted for an age
But now the days just fly away
To where I cannot say
Never ask a question
That has no answer
Never look beyond what is
To what is no more
Will they ever win the war?
Find a cure for cancer
Will my patience carry me?
To that distant shore
All is what it seems
It means just what it means
The sky is blue and the grass is green
I smell something burning... it's us
Sausage lips and greasy tips
It's that sweet fried pork
Spitting on the spit, spitting on the spit
You can't stem the blood and fire
By squeezing it in your hand
I've got the desire, I've got the desire
My hair is on fire
Ashes to ashes
My blood is boiling
I've got the stiff stand straight up my ass
Smell the gas, smell the sewer gas
You can't stoke the coals
Without a couple of third degree burns
Her the wheels of industry turn, turn, turn
My ass is burning
Ashes to ashes
Fire burn low, down we go
This little piggy went to the market
This little piggy stayed home
This little piggy had roasted beef
This little piggy had none
Break out the fire arms, let's do some harm
Rake the pit for the remnants, get it all
Back up the truck, we've got to get our ashes hauled
Ashes to ashes
The chill of the winter is bitter and bleak
The snow on the pathway is heavy and deep
So I dig in my shovel and lift it on high
I'm going to shovel this snow 'til I die
The end of the road looks like freedom to me
I walk past the hours, I walk past the weeks
And the months fall behind as I pass the years by
I'm going to walk this road 'til I die
'Til I die... I'm going to walk down this road 'til I die
I sit on my own and no word do I speak
The sky's in my head and the ground's on my feet
But no pleasure's delight, no tears do I cry
I'm going to sit on my own 'til I die
'Til I die... I'm going to sit on my own 'til I die
The sound of the ocean, my feet in the sand
The chill of the wind, the lie of the land
The drops on my skull, the gull's lonely sound
The thunder, the lightning, the rain pouring down
'Til I die
The years are a moment, the centuries pass
I walk from the first and I crawl to the last
But the silence surrounds me, in stillness I die
'Til I die... I'm going to pass through these days 'til I die
Yesterday all my friends decided to have a party
But they said I couldn't come because I was too fat
I was really hurt at that time, very angry but then I thought
I really don't have anything against gravity
But it really does weight me down
Heaven's is not a hearth fire
Heaven's not a home
Heaven has no reason
It's not together or alone
Heaven's isn't distant
Heaven's isn't close
Heaven's not in heaven
Heaven's in the dust between my shoes
You were still asleep when I woke up this morning
So I took all your clothes and buried them in the yard
Then I phoned your mother and father and told them
Where you were and that you were naked
But all they said was that they were very, very busy
And they would try to see you later
Heaven's is not a heartache
Heaven's not a stone
Heaven's never open
Heaven's never closed
Heaven has no angels
Heaven is no goal
Heaven's not in heaven
Heaven's in the dust between my shoes
A wise man said that you can't step in the same stream twice
But I find that wet feet get soon caked with sand and grit,
that's very unpleasant, especially between the toes
So, when I go for a stroll I always stay on the sidewalk
And I always wear a pair of nice warm boots
Heaven's not a kingdom
Not a land on which to roam
Heaven's not a palace
Where God sits upon a throne
Heaven has no treasure
There is nothing there to lose
Heaven, heaven,
Heaven has no choices
There is nothing there to choose
Heaven's not in heaven
How many notes could post man post if a post man could post notes
Here's a clue there's nothing knew just a helluva lotta more of what come before
Like shit on a stick or cum on toast, like hey lawdy mama I love you the most--but
Try not to choke and try not to gag, I have your balls in a sling and your cock in a bag
And if those fat bull frogs won't croak I'll give their little bready eyes a poke
And if those hairy lids won't blink, I'll sit thousands years and think
Of every fish that's in the sea and every bird that's in the sky
I'll turn to the corpse of god and cry, I see a mansion in the sky
How many wholes can a young buck fuck if a young buck could fuck wholes
There's more to see in the cunt of a flea than in the darkness of your soul - I know
Who is who and what is what, what barks like a dog and quacks like a duck
When the lightning cracks and the wild wind blows you can stick that smell right up your nose
Damned if you do and damned if you don't, I hope those big lead boots can float
On the rivers of blood raised in a flood to wash these words right down your throat
Turn to the thing that's by your side, look into what you hope are eyes and cry
I see a mansion in the sky
In a pure land you can see forever
Your thoughts float like a lotus in a stream
In a pure land rise and look around you
Arise and awaken from your dreams
A pure mind sees a pure land
A pure mind sees a pure land
A pure land, a pure land, a pure land
How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood
How much good could a good man do if a good man could do good
Carved by the fire and nailed by the rain, crafted by hope and love and pain
Built of stone or built of wood, I'd build it solid if I could
But if that leap balloon won't fly I'll piss in the wind and hope to die
And if I'm dead when I awake, you'll know it was all a big mistake
I lowered the sky and raised the ground, tore from my an awesome sound
Faceless May she lives in a cave
Like a floating rock on a rippless wave
If she had eyes they’d be bright and wide
And the pitch black night would have nothing to hide
If she had ears the silence would hear
The steps of hunters creeping near
But she has no features she’s funny that way
Dear Little faceless May
Dear Little Faceless May [x4]
Faceless may has a withered hand
Stunted from stirring the pebbles and sand
If she were sad her acid tears
Would carve out the days and furrow the years
If she were happy her joyful cries
Would raise the dead and open their eyes
But she has no feelings
She’s funny that way
Dear Little Faceless May
Dear Little Faceless May [x4]
If you wanna find her and ask her advice
Cave a road out of melting ice
Walk to the sunset and pause to see
The burning rays as they cease to be
Wait for the moment to pass before
The mirror of what will be nevermore
Then turn to the left and close your eyes
And whisper these words to the dying light
Faceless May tell me please
Why do the fish only swim in the seas?
Why don’t they spread their fins and glide
On a rippless breeze to the deep blue sky
She won’t answer
She’s funny that way
She will not answer
She’s funny that way
Faith I call your name
When the moonlit sky shines in your eyes
Little Faith, I hear you sniffing at the ground
With your head hung down as you are peering all around
Runaway, she won't run away
Runaway, she won't run away
Faith, why are you growling in your sleep?
Do you stalk the shadows of your dream?
Little Faith, do you dream of me
When the fire is low and you are lying at my feet?
Runaway, she won't run away
Runaway, she won't run away
I called her Faith, I called her Faith
I called her dog and she came
She's a bitch, she's my little bitch
Faith you walk tamely by my side
But I see the wilderness in your eyes
Little Faith, thought you wander n your own
Circling
Dive, bite
Clench and jerk
A spray of bright
Re, ripped surface
Torn flesh
No hot, no cold, no yes, no no
No earth, no k, no you, no I
You die, you die
Every time, you die
You die, you die
You die
You simply die
No hat, no cold, no yes, no no
You know, you know
I know you know
You know I know
You know
I think you know
Not coninued
Never started
Not half, not whole
Hearted
Never here, where, here, where, here, where, here
You die...
Never here, where, here, where, here, where, here
You know...
Pull out
Jetting
Sweat, a drag
Teeth, a drag
There, again, there, again, there, again, there
You die...
There, again, there, again, there, again, there
You know.
(go into mediation)
I'm all wet
My feet don't work, I'm getting a new seat
I am that gleam in the baby's eye
As he grabs the Lysol and gives it a try
Not dead yet
Here we are on the move again
Riding the skies in a DC-10
The movie's a scream, there's a couple of stars
Raping a girl in the back of a car
I am that crashing jet
I'm all wet
I'm not dead yet, there's a hole in the fishnet
I am that face on a rainy night
That stares eyes wide open into you headlights
I'm all wet
I am that love you can never forget
I am the balance and you are the dept
Your payments are due, I'm the voice on the phone
Sell of your car, mortage your home
I am that cancelled cheque
I'm all wet I'm not dead yet
I'm not dead yet
I listened hard to all your talk, but with none of it could I agree
You're deep in the thick of your own bullshit and the smell of it nauseates me
I've got a grudge that I want to grind in the teeth of your superior sneer
Step outside or I'll be obliged to spew all over you here
There is a problem, you see
You know that problem is me
Forget your psychology
What is the problem with me?
I'm an asshole
I met your wife, she was very nice, and she really took a shine to me
We talked about this, we laughed about that, and we shared a drink or three
My head's in the window, my foot's in the door, my fork's in the mulligan stew
And with every bite through the moaning night you know UM be thinking of you
(chorus)
There is nothing that I wouldn't do to fuck you up royally
I've got a finger in all your pies and you'll never get away from me
Look at my face, look in my eyes, and forgel your psychology
The world may be buying your present disguise but you can't pull the wool over me
Out of a clear blue sky
Hear the ringing of the bells
Into the belly of hell
I'm doing well, I 'm doing well
Buy cheap, sell dear just keep
It plain and keep it clear
I've got a product to sell
I'm doing well I'm doing well
Surprise, surprise
I've got that twinkle in my eye
Is that success that I smell?
I'm doing well, I 'm doing well
I'm biting off what I can chew
And spitting out what i can't use
I've dropped my bucket in the well
I'm doing well, I 'm doing well
So well
I loved my neighbour, that's true
And followed all the golden rules
But do you smell what I smell?
I'm doing well, I 'm doing well
Out of a clear blue sky
Into the belly of hell
What did I say when I fell?
I'm doing well, I 'm doing well
I know what I know
I'm no hero
Say yes, say no
Don't come, come close
Wrong
Be strong, be strong
Don't be all wrong
Don't wait or hesitate
Take care, beware
Wrong
I am wrong
I feel great, let's celebrate
It's a sunny day, let's dance and play
Never fear, love is here
Never fear, love is
Be straight, don't lie
Don't tell, tell why
I know what I know
I'm no hero
Wrong
I am wrong
I feel great, let's celebrate . . .
Step into my parlour said the spider to the fly
And we could share a love that will never die
Step into my parlour said the spider to the fly
And we could share a love that will never
I know what I know
I'm no hero
Don't wait or hesitate
Be strong
Be wrong
Wrong
I keep myself awake at night
I try to stop, but I can't fight
That voice that whispers ceaselessty
The one that only talks to me
It tells me what I have to fear
It spits it's venom in my ear
It calculates and carefully
Enumerates it's strategies
Round and round it's loves and hates
It endlessly reiterates
It never stops, I've never heard
The silence of that final word
But I've got to stop talking, I can't stop talking
There is no stopping a brain that keeps talking
I know it's not healthy, I know it's not true
I don't even know who I'm talking to
But I can't stop talking, I've got to stop talking
All night and all day I have something to say
I drone on and on, though I know it's not true
I've got to stop talking, I'm not talking to you
The truth around my tongue is curled
A chain of words that binds the world
In a fever, all I
Is captured in my commentary
The why, the who, the where, the when
Let me repeat them all agai n
And then again my voice will sing
The praises of it's babbling
The arguments that I dissect
Are lucid, cogent and correct
And if you foolishly object
I'll Gram each word back down you neck
(chorus)
If I'm the talker, here's the thing -
Just who the hell is listening?
And if I am not tongue but ears
Then whos voice is it that I hear?
I swallow, choke, and clear my throat
Here comes another anecdote
A narrative of restlessness
Of what's been done and what is next
Does it love me, does it not?
Will this seduction never stop?
Hear the clacking parrot's beak
I get up in the morning
Go to bed at night
I turned it off, I shut it down
I closed shop I'm outta town
I'm by the wayside I'm up the drink
Not in the bl black but ut I'm in the pink
Oh what hat was that? Did you say something?
must admit I really wasn't listening
Oh what a jerk I feel so silly
I must apologize I was busy getting
Up in the morning, go to bed of night
Well, I got my troubles, I got my problems-
And someday maybe I'll even solve 'em but
I don't worry, I'm in the groove
My brain thinks and my bowels move
In the morning, go to bed of night
First I get up
Then I get down
Well I don't drive, I take the bus I must
Say I feel like a part of the rest of us
Bot I don't trust no one no more
Oh I'm not bitter, I'm not sore
I know you're worried, you're all distressd
You feel the tension then get depressed
But I don't squibble and I don't cry
'Cause, I don't care and IÅ l tell you why
I get up in the morning, go to bed at night
I want to come home now
I've been away too long
I want to come back
I'm too sick at heart and scared to go
I can't pretend any more
To you i can't pretend
I need a friend
I can't be alone any more
I need you I need you
Now cut off, apart, isolated
In my pride, in my hatred
My face is sad and afraid
Black in the sun and white in the shade
The night reflects it
In every window i pass
In evrey pane of glass
I can't last, like this, i can't last
I need you I need you now
All those i pushed away
They walk with me, live in me now
And the silence of what i never said
Screams in my ears and pounds in my head
But when i look at you
I know i could never lie
You see all of me when i look into your eyes
I need you I need you now I
Woke up dreaming that i was dead
Beside you on the bed
I smoothed my hand across your hip
And lingered with my fingertips
From beyond, from far away
Blessing where the shadows lay
I whispered what i could not say
How you took my breath away
There is no world and i am a shadow
You are no woman and i am noman
There are only eyes and arms and hands
The eyes that cut me out
The arms that hold me round T
he hands that reach out to pick me up
And lift me from the ground
Go ahead, raise me from mud
Then in the light burn me down
And whether i live forever, heaven sent
Or am doomed to die, earth bound, it doesn't matter
You may let the years drip from my face
As the world turns round and round
But as long as i can breath
Can lift my voice and make a sound
In everything i am, in everything i do
A am your servant, i need you
Phone you mom, you抮e human
Don抰 play dumb, you抮e human
I know that you are anxiuos
You want more than this
Clean your mess, you抮e human
Get undressed, you抮e human
I know you抮e embarressed
Pale and hairless
Step right up folks and join the fun
See the amazing ape with his opposable thumb
You抣l be shocked, amazed, even horrified
That so much can be so compramised
Little monkeys making money
Naked monkey looking funny
Mighty males are strong and free
Female monkey, not so lucky
Rocking monkeys, funky monkeys
Monkeys sticking other mnkeys
Monkeys wrong or monkeys right
Mostly flexing monkey might
Humans
Now you抳e lost your Eden
There is no returning
It stares up and out at you
It抯 not for you
I dn抰 care, I抦 human
I抦 too scared, I抦 human
I know you want peace of mind
To be with your kind
You won抰 believe your eyes
A cranium of unparalled size
Immaculate if ill conceived
A sight not to be believed
Little monkey making money...
I like other humans
They抮e so very human
I know that it抯 obvious
We抮e all just like this
Laugh you asshole and try to be brave
My God, what a strenge shape
Drooling jaws are my dmams landwape
I am so tough and so afraid
Give it up, get it up, give it up, get it up
With spear, sword and blade
With spear, sword and blade
Hunt the She Beast
Mama bear is there, beware
Hunt the She Beast
We got together because it was so fucking cold
And we knew the answer wasn't in the stars
Or in the soil, it was in blood
In a bloody run down to the sea, in a bloody run
Down to the sea, in a run down to the sun and the sea
H u nt the She Beast
She bear, she bears the furies
Hunt the She Beast
Now I own everything and I have all the answers
Kingdom come like my father before and my son after
And it's power that has brought me here
Brains and power and the fear
The fear you've got to control
You've got to keep the women down below
Cause them was something here before
The fear you've got to control
There is something down in that hole
Hunt the She Beast
And now there's nothing left to kill
You've bent the whole world to your will
When you reach out your mighty hand
There's nothing left but barren sand
You run and run and run
But you've forgotten what you're running from
You're flying into emptiness
And all that's left for you is death
Now we don't need no prophets of doorn
We need prophets of the womb
Deny your cruel mythology
Your fear inspired symbology
The circling arms of mother night
Will craddle your small fire light
From now on when I hunt to see
She - what do I see?
From now on when I hunt to see
She - what do I see?
A single
Simple
Human Being
Hunt the She Beast She bear,
she bears the futum Hunt the She Beast.
Wake up!
Wakey, wakey, eggs and bacey
Use your noses, wake up
Smell the coffee, smell the coffee
Smell the roses, use your noses
I want - more money
more booze
more fun
I'm not done
I want - more money
More of you honey
More fun
I'm not done, I'm not done
Wake up!
Snap out of it, rise and shine
You snooze, shine and rise, you lose
Smell the coffee, smell the coffee
Smell the roses, use your noses
I want - girls and boys
More noise
More three ways
24hours
More of you, more of me
I'm flipping in the wind like a flag on a pole
And it's blowing me away
I've got to go because I feel so low
I'm alone!
So low (no solo)
I threw away the picture of my happy home
And hung a bone yard in it's place
I've got to go because I fell so low
I'm alone!
So low (no solo)
My baby took the Lexus and left a mule to ride
I never felt so naked
now there's nothing left to hide
She said there is nothing left between s
That's why I love you so
What see means I'll never know, I'll never know
I gotta go, go, go
So low (no solo)
I've got to go because I feel so low
I'm alone!
Slugs are burning, see the phosphorescence
In the fetid stew
Wrecks in fire floating in the bubbles
Their flames are methane blue
See the sea worms writhing in the silver moonlight
Cutting through the haze
See the dog fish breaking through the waves
Slugs are burning, wings are turning
As the rays go gliding through
Slugs are burning, see them slowly crawling
Across the forest floor
See the dead eyes staring in the starlight
They will eat them all
Hear the wolves they're howling at the yellow halo
That shines around the moon
Hear the eerie hooting of the loons
Slugs are burning, the wheels are turning
And the world is turning too
Dance with me cause I'm a little devil
And you are a demon too
Every breeze tha whistles through the desert
Calls a mating tune
See the cattle tremble in the stable
Cause they know their time is soon
Hear the jackals cackling in the dunes
Slugs are burning, the wings are turning
As the vultures cross the moon
Slugs are burning, the wheels are turning
And the world is turning too
Dance me cause I'm a little demon boy
And you're a devil too
In the fire I will dance with you
Ink stains his skin
The odor of death
Stinks on his breath
A needle that's all
Nothing of himself remains
The needle kills the punk
Sharpened to the point
A stud in his skin
His tongue is numb
The stud is in
Nothing of him remains
The stud kills the punk
Ringing in the ears
An anthem of fear
Of pain and of death
And there is nothing that's left
Nothing of himself remains
The trash kills the punk
The razor shaves his skin
The water boils his brain
His thoughts are dead
And his fear and his pain
Nothing of him remains
The hawk kills the punk
There is no you and there is no me
Cradle the arms of uniformity
Tell me what's the price that you would pay
See the snake that crawls across
The path in the woods of the little boy lost
Hear the hissing feel the bite
As he opens his eyes in the pale moon light
One is low one is high
Crossing on the back between black and white
Out of a dream and into the night
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Moving In The Pale Moon Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Moving In The Pale Moon Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
See the goat that is pale as snow
Standing on a hill where the cold winds blow
The Sheppard sleeping in the valley below
Dreaming of a heaven where the righteous go
Something moving in the pale moon light
At the edge of trees out of the border of sight
See the shadows first black then white
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Moving In The Pale Moon Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
Something Moving In The Pale Moon Light
Something Dark Against Something Light
[Repeated several times]
Bang on, take the hit, because you’re paid for honey

Bang on, right on the lip

Cuz you sold yourself for money

Rise, rise and sin no more
Rise, rise and sin no more
Across the bridge and through the door
We won't talk about it, talk about it anymore
Who's on the bottom or who's on top
Look into my eyes it will never stop, never stop
Rise, rise and sin no more
Rise, rise and sin no more
Along your belly in between your thights
Look at my face, i hear you, I hear you cry
Over the mountains on top of the sky
See the bodies, writhe, writhe, writhe, withre
Withre
Who's on the bottom? who's on top ?
Rise, rise and sin no more
Rise, rise and sin no more
Bound and gagged we talk together
Through the halls and the lofty colonnades
Look at the picture that line the walls
See the bodies fall, fall, fall
================
Now if
Feel
Like nothing
Nothing and nobody
And if
Nothing
Nothing and nobody
Forget your life
It's nothing
Now if
Cringe and shrink inside
But say nothing
Nothing to nobody
And if
But say nothing
Nothing to nobody
Forget your life
It's nothing
You're hiding
Why are you hiding
That's nothing
You're scared
What are you scared of
That's nothing
Forget your life
It's nothing
I guess you heard my head turned brown
I lost several pounds and looked terrible
Thi marriage of yellow and black never looked good on paper
His mother was a secretary, I think
Her father a rapist
I€™m a little pressed for time and facts
But I know
It€™s those personnal acts
Those personnal acts
That cut through the crap
I heard they were dimembering people down the street
Those Joneses, you gotta love€™m
Various disguises are regrettable but necessary
If you€™re going to make it through the day
Everyday Everyday
Everyday I start to ooze
A bold plan drawn up by assholes to screw morons
News at eleven but first
A long serious look at what€™s seeping from open sore
Perhaps you should STOP PICKING AT IT
I never felt so alone
I never felt so used
I never felt so excited
It was those personal acts
Those personal acts
That cut up the crap and served it for breakfast
YOU DUMB FUCK
My mom phoned up the police today
Just to say hello, €žHello€œ
My girlfriend has been missing for two weeks
I guess that€™s what happens when you alk the streets
with a bag on your head and a sign that says
Everyday Everyday
Everyday I start to ooze
Blue, black and blue and red are the colours of everyday
Ok, that€™s liffe, that€™s what I was told anyway
And picking your feet till they bleed may be the half of it
If every fourth animal in the world is a beetle
Maybe ervery fourt person is a DUMB FUCK
Listen , listen carefully now here€™s the answer
It rhymes with axe
Why, it€™s those personal acts
Those personal acts
Those suicide pacts
Those carelessly stored razorblades in the hands of small children
It€™s my face smeared on the pavement
It€™s Everyday
It€™s Everyday
Unday
Noneday
Useday
Buttugly
Whoreday
Painday
SPLATTERSDAY SPLATTERSDAY
YOU DUMB FUCK
Give me the push, give me the push
Over the side, over the side
Look in my eyes, look in my eyes
Give me the push, over the side
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alright
I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm alive
I'm alright, look in my eyes
Is it Hell below or God on high?
Look in my eye's, look in my eye's
I'm alright, I'm alive
Give me the push, give me the push
I'm alright, I'm alive
Give me the push, give me the push
Over the side, over the side
Look in my eyes, look in my eyes
Give me the push, over the Side
I'm alright, look in my eyes
It's Hell below and God on high
Thin voices call out of thin air
€žDo you really care?
Do you really care?€œ
There is no reason to be afraid
All the bodies have been laid to rest
Nobody passes the test of time
The long climb into thin air, thin air
There is no one there
You think you have time
You have no time
An image may be left in place
Of whta was felt there is no trace
In words recited without sound
By voices buried underground
There is no meaning to be found
€žDo you really care?
Do you really care?€œ
There is no one there
You think you have time
You have no time
There are no castles without ghosts
And no spirits without hope
But nobody passes the test of time
You stand in line, you have your place
The in the space of moments fall
From again and again and again tonot at all
From again and again and again tonot at all
I do not fear the buried sounds
Of words that echo underground
A memory is a loaded gun
And I remember everyone
I remember you
€žDo you really care?
Do you really care?€œ
There is no one there
There is no one there
Why are you scared?
There is no one there
You€™re clean, strong and free like you always wanted to be
You€™re alone, alone, alone
There is no one there
don't look for them, it is an instrumental song, it has no lyrics
Hey, buddy, you know me, I guess you've heard my name
I was the greatest, I had my share of fame
The girls, they loved me, you know I had them all
But now, they don't love me, now they don't care at all
I thought I could not fail
I had it by the tail
I thought I owned this town
But now I'm headed down, I'm
Standing by the roadside
Up against a wall
Now I'm going nowhere
Nowhere at all
I was the strongest, I pushed the world around
I stood the tallest, I turned it upside down
I thought I had it, I thought I knew it all
Why couldn't I see it, the writing on the wall
I wanted everything
I had it on a string
I soared above the ground
But now I'm coming down, I'm
Standing by the roadside
Up against a wall
Now I'm going nowhere
Nowhere at all
Now I'm going nowhere
Nowhere at all
Now I'm going nowhere
Nowhere at all
Hey buddy, you've seen me, you know my face and name
Hey, buddy, listen to me, don't turn and walk away
I thought I had it made
I thought I'd never fade
I thought I'd live forever
I guess I should've know better, I'm
Standing by the roadside
Up against a wall
Now I'm going nowhere
Nowhere at all
You will not follow me
Hello, goodbye
Take the first turn and head straight south
A corridor of trees will lead you past a public park
Row houses of brick, empty onto a vacant lot
Turn left, turn right, and look for the neon sign
There you are, there you are
Wait a minute, I see, I see
Hello, goodbye
You three bring in the boxes while we move these chairs
A place to be, a place to read, a work of fiction or history
To the east we'll hang the door, solid oak
To the west bay windows letting in the light
A place to be, a place to read, a place to spend the night
you stand over there and Iæ£l stay here
Now I see, now I see
Hello, goodbye
You will not follow me
A prophet without disciples
A teacher without students
A shepherd without sheep
Wait a minute, I see, I see
You three, follow me, yes you three, follow me
Follow me
You will not follow me
The blood of the oxen must not be spilt upon the altar
And the smoke must be of white ash, cypress and fragrant cedar
While the leaves of the yew tree will smother the brazen flames
You hand me up the cup and Iæ£l read the book
And then together we'll all sing
What shall we sing? what shall we sing?
You will not follow me
For all to see, open your hands and show the
Self surgery, see the scars, trace the seams
A heart on a sleeve, and the words, words, hear the words, words as they
Repeat the refrain
Trying hard to explain
He抯 got it, man, he抯 covered in it, just look at him
One more time, man, you抳e got it, just do it!
He learned how to bleed
He learned how to bleed
Just look at him
The works and the days, squeezing each out another
Drop from the stone, one more push, one more groan
This is the best, what more can you expect can you see
What have you done
The prize you have won
He抯 down, but look, he抯 back up again
How does he do it?
He learned how to bleed
He learned how to bleed
Just look at him
What a weary way we wend
In this world without end
You learn to fall and then
You learn to stand up again
Aquire the skills, gather the will to do it
Learn b degrees, learn ist slow, learn it heard
It is the art of tearing it apart and when you
Know what you know
Let it out, let it go
No more tricks, ma, we抳e seen the fakes, just do it!
That抯 it, man, let it out, just do it!
He learned how to bleed
He learned how to bleed
Just look at him
Nobody has his own place in the back
He keeps it in order, a neat little shack
And every day he goes down to the beach
Looking for a clam or an oyster to eat
He said, Trn not unhappy, there is nothing to fear
I'm just trying to disappear
It's not unusual, the future is clear
I'm just trying to disappear"
He said, I know what I'm doing, I know who I am
I'm the number one fan of the invisible man"
He's covered in sweat from his head to his toes
But what he's looking for nobody knows
lt's not there and it's not here, he said
'Trn just trying to disappear"
Nobody stood in the middle of the street
Where he drew a chalk outline around his feet
Then he smiled and lifted his face to the sky
Flapping his arms like he was trying to fly
He said, "I may not make it to that great beyond
But I'll never be found with my feet on the ground
I'm pretty far gone but I'm still here
Can nobody help me to disappear?"
Nobody sat on a bench in the park
Waiting for the day to turn into the dark
Then he waved goodbye to that setting sun
And did a little dance when the day was done
He said, "The shadows loom, it will be night soon
And the stars will shine over a rising moon
I have nothing to lose, I have nothing to fear
I'm just trying to disappear"
Nobody went for a walk in the rain
I lent him my boots and my walking cane
The cane they found hanging from a tree
But those boots will never walk back to me
He's not far oft but he's nowhere near
That's obvious but it's not very clear
Nobody talks, nobody hears
He said, 'Trn just trying to disappear"
================
Slayde is my buddy, my pal, he is my brother
I am one, he is the other
When the sun shines, he is my shadow
And when the moon is high, it's at his feet I lie
But I'll never listen to what Slayde says
I'll never listen to what Slayde says
Slayde's always talking, and it's rarely nice
He's always whispering his poisonous advice
He is secretive, ruthless and cold
He mentions just enough and leaves the rest untold
He said, "Don't ever risk an open attack, just smile
Into their faces and then stab them in the back"
But Slayde, I said, what about the weak,
The helpless and the small?
He just sneered and said, "Fuck 'em all, fuck 'em all"
He said I am a murderer, although I've killed no one
You talk in puzzles Slayde, I said, what have you really done?
"I've cut the twining cord, I've shot the turtle dove,
I've shut out that precious light that shines from above"
Slayde, you are a poet, I said
But what are you truly speaking of?
He smiled and whispered, "I murdered love"
He smiled and whispered, "I murdered love"
I guess I hate him, no, that's not really true
He's not completely bad, sometimes he'll crack a joke or two
I guess I've grown accustomed to his funny ways
It's not his fault that he was made that way
I hear him in my sleep, I see him in my dreams
I see him crouched before some terrible machine
And then I face a mirror and he steps in between
Can you tell me, what does this mean?
Can you tell me, what does this mean?
Now I lay me down to sleep
And pray to God my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
You'll know I've made my escape
But there is one step I'll never take
I'll never listen to what a Slayde says...
You were simply untrue
A lie to see through
I tell you we’re one and the same
Makes a carrier brain
And when they complain
Just tell them it’s one and the same
Fog that turns into rain
And flows down the drain
That ocean is one and the same
Twins, the dirt and the sky
The flames and the eyes
I tell you they’re one and the same
One and the same
My face and the mirror
The sound of my name
One lone island onto itself
Stands in the vast of middle shell
One eye blinks while the other one sees
The very same tricks of the very same flea
Surely to goodness, you cannot tell
The meager difference between a pail and a well
When you’re dying of thirst
Can’t you see, it’s all the same to me
Me, a lie basically
Like a rock or a tree
I tell you we’re one and the same
Stakes, the curl in the wisps
At the flick of a switch
They flick on that very same day
You and whatever you do
I’m doing it to
I tell you, we’re one and the same
Who and what, where, and when
All [?] in the end
I tell you it’s one and the same
One and the same
Your face and the portrait
Sitting all day along in the dreams of men
Pounding the numbers from one to ten
Bearing the child and spoiling the rod
I’m falling into the dream of God
Walk! [x7]
Perambulate [x2]
See the shadow, it’s leading the man
See the tail, it’s wagging the dog
A world of traces is all that’s left
On the road that leaves to leaves to
Star struck eyes on a silver screen
Everyone knows just what that means
But in the jewels of a starry night
What’s the difference between day and night
Work! [x7]
Perambulate [x2]
Now you know just what I know
Standing still is the way to go
All roads lead to the dreams of men
He just sits and watches T.V.
He doesn't look at me, he's always watching me
He says the free life is best
Why don't you clean up the mess?
There's something wrong with him
All his masks are caving in
He doesn't go out much no more
His clothes are pled neatl on the floor
He hasn't shaved in three weeks
He hasen't even brushed his teath
This is not whta i meant
I just wanted to share the rent
His eyes are closed but he never sleeps
He's breathing, he's breathing deep
He's got something on his mind
He can't seem to unwind
He said,
Don't you fuck nobody else
Don't you fuck nobody else
What's this? I don't have any tits
You can't treat me like this, I don't have any tits
He's sold the car, he's locked the door
He says that he don't care no more
He's drawnn the shade, he's shut the binds
I think that he has lost his mind
I can't believe what i see
He's rising his hand
Against me
Myroommate is turning into a monster
Days Old
Days Old
Dry and rusted
Covered In Mold
Years Old
Years Old
Rusty overgrown, undermined
Alone
Stay,
Stay a little longer
Stay
Stay a little longer
Stay
Stay a little longer
By No Means
Years old
Years old
The faces have changed but the stories the same
Stories told
Those stories told
I’ve herd it before
A million times told
Stay,
Stay a little longer
Stay
Stay a little longer
Stay
Stay a little longer
At no time
Old [repeat]
Years old,
It’s been years old
The faces have changed the stories the same
Nothing means anything, everything's permitted
Nothing is forbidden, so anything goes
Let's take turns molesting the children
I'm so bored with my life
Yes, we'll take turns molesting the children
And then I'll go home to my wife
I was born to be an attorney
I was born to peddle cars
I'll make hell while the sun shines
Then I'll end up behind bars
Nothing means anything, everything's permitted
Nothing is forbidden, so anything goes
Let's go home and bury the children
In the cellar with my wife
They were all insured for millions
Now we'll do just what we like
I was born to live on credit
You know my Visa's solid gold
MasterCard is my religion
I've got a mortgage on my soul
Nothing means anything, everything's permitted
Nothing is forbidden, so anything goes
I'll buy that for a dollar!
Let's go to Guam and fuck the baby
I saw a tour on the internet
They say that Hell awaits all sinners
But they haven't got us yet
Something's wrong in the heartland
There's an evil that creeps across this land
But they say God accepts all sinners
So why should we give a damn?
I was born of love eternal
But now I do the devil's work
If there's a God up there in Heaven
Love or hate me I don't care
Every step you take I'm there
I'm the one you can't hide
I stand always by your side
When you walk I trip you up
When you talk I mix you up
I'm the dreamer, you're the dream
I'm the famous Mr. In Between
Who? Mr. In Between
It's not pretty but it's true
Look at his face
I am you
I'm the trick thats up your sleeve
I step in and then you leave
I do everything for you
Ask your girlfriend if it's true
When you talk I have to laugh
I'm the head and you're the ass
When you're lying I come clean
I'm the famous Mr. In Between
Who? Mr. In Between
You don't like it, but it's true
Look in these eyes
Nothing left but rubble and dust
See the towers fall
Nothing but a twisted mess of iron and rust
No one left at all
All the heroes who were in demand
They’re all dead
And all the members of my favourite band
They’re all dead
Nothing left to hang on to
In this wicked world
That’s liberation
No more words, nothing left to say
Still the voices sing
In jubilation
Castles made of earth and stone
They come falling down
The boy king perched on a golden throne
Now buried under ground
Isotopes burning, burning red
Now cooled as red
And all the members of the German Reich
They’re all dead
Nothing left to hang on to
In this whole damn world
That’s liberation
No more goals, or stupid dream
Nothing in this world
That’s jubilation
Nothing left to hang on to
In this wicked world
That’s liberation
No more words, nothing left to say
Still the voices sing
In jubilation
Nothing left to hang on to
In this whole damn world
That’s liberation
No more goals, or stupid dream
Nothing in this world
Manic depression is touching my soul
I know what I want but I just don't know
How to, go about gettin' it
Feeling sweet feeling,
Drops from my fingers, fingers
Manic depression is catchin' my soul
Woman so weary, the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
It's all the same
When it's, when it's over, mama
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess
Well, I think I'll go turn myself off,
And go on down
All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hanging around
In your kinda scene
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
I watch everything on TV and I'm terrified, it scares me
A child molester killed my little boy
Someone phoned me to tell me, to tell me
But the call came in while I was asleep
I heard the answering machine in my sleep
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
I toss and turn all night
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
It's just an endless night
Someone choked my little boy
It was a plastic toy that should never have come to market
I saw it advertised on TV
And it scared me
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
I toss and turn all night
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
It's just an endless night
I am the man with X-ray eyes
Con you see through me?
To reality
I remember the lessons that were taught to me on educational V
I saw them walk on the moon but i never left my room
They killed my little boy and then they showed it to me
They called it reality...
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
I toss and turn all night
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
Friends say that I better be cool
They say I'm playing the fool
But they don't know what they're talking about
I've got to cum, I've got to scream and shout
Mama said I was a really bad boy
Sis is crying 'cause I've broken her toys
Papa's shouting that I really gotta go
But where I'm going I just don't know
In her eyes
The sun is beginning to rise
In her eyes
I feel myself coming alive
In her eyes
The blood is beginning to flow
In her eyes
I know that I'm ready to go
I'm running but I don't know where
I'm trying but I really don't care
Papa told me that I better watch out
But Papa doesn't know what he's talking about
Mama said I was a really bad boy
Sis is crying 'cause I've broken her toys
Papa's shouting that I really gotta go
If you were a dog they'd put you to sleep
Your looks aint' good, and your minds not deep
When the talk is cheap, you got nothing to say
You're high on life, and you're sick all day
I wanna take you home
You little creep, you little creep
I wanna get you alone
You little creep, you little creep
You little creep, you little creep
Your fingernails are caked with dirt
And when you look at me you start to flirt
You got greasy hair, you got smelly feet
And a tattooed heart that says trick or treat
I'll take you home tonight
You little creep, you little creep
I'll make you feel alright
You little creep, you little creep
You little creep, you little creep
Your mother was a whore and your father was a pimp
So don't put me on(?), you little wimp
You're just a snot nosed bastard child
And nobody cares if you live or die
I think you're quite divine
You little creep, you little creep
I'm gunna make you mine
You little creep, you little creep
You little creep, you little creep
Your hair is green and red and blue(?)
and those eyes you ash(?), they look good on you
how i'd like to see your stupid smile
and when you're smelling me it really drives me wild
I wanna make you up
You little creep, you little creep
I wanna give you a bath
You little creep, you little creep
You little creep, you little creep
You little, little creep
You little, little creep
You little, little creep
Ready or not
Eehaw, looks kile I got a datem boys
You end with an ear if you start with a sound
Break in a circle that comes never round
Opened my eyes to see the light
There you were to my delight
Hair in your nose and frost in you brow
You looked like a bear but you smelled like a cow
You made me meal of milk and wheat
I opened a vein and bled to your feet
Variety, variety, that抯 what I like to see
Joy the world you dirty old bag
This is the best time I ever had
One day was an eternity
Here抯 to the years that you gave to me
Here抯 to the rain that flatters my hair
Here抯 to the smell of smoke in the air
Here抯 to the straw where I make my bed
Here抯 to the hole where i抦 lying dead
Ready or not
What I like is the incredible variety
Ready? no, no, no
The seaweed is always greener
In somebody else's lake
You dream about going up there
But that is a big mistake
Just look at the world around you
Right here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things surround you
What more is you lookin' for?
Under the sea
Under the sea
Darling it's better
Down where it's wetter
Take it from me
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
While we devotin'
Full time to floatin'
Under the sea
Down here all the fish are happy
As off through the waves they roll
The fish on the land ain't happy
They sad 'cause they in their bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
They in for a worser fate
One day when the boss gets hungry
Guess who's gon' be on the plate
Under the sea
Under the sea
Nobody beat us
Fry us and eat us
In fricassee
We what the land folks loves to cook
Under the sea we're off the hook
We got no troubles
Life is the bubbles
Under the sea
Under the sea
Since life is sweet here
We got the beat here
Naturally
Even the sturgeon an' the ray
They get the urge 'n' start to play
We got the spirit
You got to hear it
Under the sea
The newt play the flute
The carp play the harp
The plaice play the bass
And they soundin' sharp
The bass play the brass
The chub play the tub
The fluke is the duke of soul
(Yeah)
The ray he can play
The lings on the strings
The trout rockin' out
The blackfish she sings
The smelt and the sprat
They know where it's at
An' oh that blowfish blow
[Under the sea
Under the sea
Under the sea
Take it from me
We what the land folks loves to cook
Under the sea we're off the hook
We got no troubles
Life is the bubbles
Under the sea]
Under the sea
Under the sea
When the sardine
Begin the beguine
It's music to me
What do they got? A lot of sand
We got a hot crustacean band
Each little clam here
know how to jam here
Under the sea
Each little slug here
Cuttin' a rug here
Under the sea
Each little snail here
Know how to wail here
That's why it's hotter
Under the water
Ya we in luck here
Down in the muck here
~~~~~~~~
When I set out on this journey
I thought it would never end
When I started down that road
I could not see the end
And when I took that first step
I fell in so deep
And all those things that were so hard-won
I thought I would always keep
Now what do you think I see
Standing like a wall in front of me
Defeat, not victory
Defeat, not victory
Defeat, not victory
Chorus:
So what are you going to do? Die?
You gonna lay down and die?
I will not admit defeat
I will not admit defeat
I will see victory
Pride and deceit
Have choked my life like weeds
And I lost sight of what I really had
What I really need
And all the things I should've valued
I gave away for a prayer and a song
And now when I reach out for them
They are gone
Now you know what I see
Standing in front of me
Like a headstone
A fucking monument to human misery
Defeat, not victory
Defeat, not victory
Defeat, not victory
Chorus
Do I have any friends here?
I can't see
Are any of my friends here?
I can't see
What about you?
Will you be a friend to me?
What about you?
Will you be a friend to me?
I've got a question to ask you
And then you can ask it of me
It's a simple request
And then you can make it of me
Can you forgive me?
Can you see what will be?
Is it victory?
Now I can't show you all the things I've seen
And I can't make you feel anything
Certainly not what they meant to me
And someday I know, no matter how hard we try
We are all going to have to lay down and die
So maybe I should just tell you
What I hope and believe
For every defeat there will be a victory
For every defeat there will be a victory
Newly weds, nearly deads
Seas of green skies of lead
Constant rain on my head
Stately homes for the rich
Bowling green, cricket pitch
Victoria, what a bitch
Victoria
I was born in a place
Where the cops spray their mace
On the kids at the gigs
And they act just like pigs
Beat 'em up, knock 'em down
Victoria what a town
Victoria
Land of hope and gloria
Stuck in old victoria
Guaranteed to bore ya
Sentenced to victoria
Gordon head to james bay
Yuppies flock to this place
Victoria, what a waste
From Oak Bay to the Gorge
All the geeks at the forge
Victoria, what a bore
When all those tomorrows get crammed into now
You stop like you're froze ans ask yourself how
When all those tomorrows get crammed into now
You stop like you're froze ans ask yourself how
When putting it all in order ain't enough
The tough gets going and the going gets tough
And the things that you thought ain't what it ought
Ought ought to be
When you're laid on the line your dreams will stop
They've drawn you in and they've strung you up
When you're laid on the line your dreams will stop
They've drawn you in and they've strung you up
When putting it all in order ain't enough
The tough gets going and the going gets tough
And the things that you thought ain't what it ought
When the who hits the what and you've run out of luck
You do what you can but you're
When the who hits the what and you've run out of luck
You do what you can but you're
I a word
Stuck
We are the chopped, the chopped
The lecer drops and stops
This is not good or bad
Transformers hum and pop
The little dials they drop
No reason to be sad
It's only to be still with one more role to fill
The widow stands inline, the loved one's killing time
Cause when you've stopped, you've stopped
It's either now or not
No viction and no crime
As you wander through your days, you leave the
Moments lying cold and underpaid, your savings plans are sound
They'll do somebody good when you are underground
This is not good or bad
No reason to be sad
No viction and no crime
Cause when you've stopped, you've stopped
The ball is thrown and caught
It's just the end of time
The mourners ring the bells and shed tears for themselves
It was really unkind to leave us all behind
We are the chopped, the chopped
But you've not said alot
There's nothing to find
You make patterns with your eyes and blacken in
The details you don't recognize, you say that life is breath and when
The breathing stops you turn mutter
Death
We are the chopped, the chopped
But you've said a lot
This not good or bad
No reason to be sad
We are the chopped, the chopped
And when the pressure drops
You simply stop, you stop
You stop
You're dead
You are not in focus
(pinch the buns und pass the weenie, looking for the perfect queen bee)
In your heart you know this (mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the phoniest of all)
Through the cracks you crawl
(in between the contradictions, what is truth and what is friction)
With no legs at all (in the corner with the pie, you kissed the girls
And made them cry but when the boys came out to play, you made a perfect getaway)
Wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley wiggley, wiggley, viggley, wiggley worm
Now your dreams have come true
(high atop an ivory tower, counting every pre-cious hour)
There is nothing to do (in the comfort of the soil there is no place for sweat and toil)
Bigger fish get fried (I don't want to grow a head, I'd rather fuck myself instead)
In the grass you hide
(mommy told me, and it's true, I am a better worm than you
Oh, how I love the squeaky sound of music from the Underground)
Wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley, wiggley worm
When is man not a man?
When he? a sham
Stick the bait upon the hook
Who fucked who? Who took who?
And what you took, will it do?
Did you win or did you lose?
Who fucked who? Who took who?
Essentially the way i see the world outside of me
Is covered by a film of treachery
There is no reason i can see for you to turn on me
But what is that i hear behind my back
Do you attack? who do, who do you attack?
Who fucked who? Who screwed who?
Who made what secret rendezvous?
And what was said between you two?
Who fucked who? Who screwed who, man?
When i see you now i really wonder why i cared
There really was no point to this despair
But when the lies are spoken, trust is broken, harm is done
Then nothing has been gained and nothing won
Just the hatred of a wounded enemy
And when you look at me, who do you see?
Who do you see? when you look at me, a wounded enemy
Who fucked who? Who screwed who?
Who took who, man? Who fucked who?
Hatred, animosity are real as life to me
There is no space between these minor chords
But if the scales of life are weighted down with cruelty
The other side is lifted up with love
Who do you, who do, tell me who fucked you?
(Roses are red, violets are blue,
You're fucked up, but i am too
It's a sad story.
Yea, we've all been on the bottom of the old in-and-out.
Youth, I see
In your heart the red blood flows
Down like a river to the sea it goes
Youth, I see
Through all the trouble, the work and pain
You laugh like a child in a warm spring rain
Youth, I See
From the heavens the moon looks down
And the lapping of the tide is the only sound
The jungle lurks where the firelight fades
The stars are swimming in a moonlit bay
Women cry in their native tongue
Singing of the days when they were young
Hear the black eyed women pray
For all their lovers who have sailed away
On the altar the incense burns
For all the men who will never return
Youth, I see
Muscles ripple across your back
As you grab the rope and hold it fast
Youth, I see
Laughing faces at the end of the day
Hands that clap as the music plays
Youth, I See
See the temple on the hill above
A black bird circling a nesting dove
See the monks in their crimson robes
Walking single file down a dusty road
In the market the hawkers sing
Of aromatic spice and copper rings
Dice are thrown and rattling fall
At the feet of the soldiers on er) ancient wall
And the bones of those who climbed and died
Lie gleaming in the sand on the other side
See all of them dream
Youth, I see
A clear horizon the colour of lead
The sea is green like a blanket spread
Over thee
On the sheltering shore the breezes sing
But here the wind like a big bell rings
Over thee
A white-haired King with a withered hand
Bowed to the youth from a foreign land
Behind the curtains a young girl sighed
Basking in the light of his deep, blue eyes
The King decreed that the youth should know
Alt the secrets of his treasure trove
But never again would he roam free
From that kingdom he would never leave
The young man looked, the young man learned
And never to his home did he return
I've got a problem, but what can i do
My mind is a nazi but my soul is a jew
I love radiation, it is the cure
For human problems around the world
[Chorus]
Blazing light
Fireballs to light up the night
It's alright
I like to watch things burn
I'm sick of trying to hide the scars
I'm sick of living behind bars
You may be burning, not cold as ice
But you don't show it, it's not nice is it?
I'm not complaining what can I do
I am a monkey, this is a zoo
You're just pretending, live in the past
The air is filled with the smell of gas
[Chorus]
You may be burning, you may be burning
But you don't show it, why don't you show it?
You may be burning, not cold as ice
But you don't show it, it's not nice
[Chorus]
Well, we settled in and all lived hand to mouth
Pooled our guns and beat the boys down south
Felt so proud, we got our own country
We got it on sale from a bloody company
[Chorus]
Canada is Pissed
We'll fade and won't be missed
Our country got so poor
When the people are so rich
Well, we bribed the west and the north was in the bag
Can't see why we all don't love our flag
Varies immigrants and the native plea
To the anglos and the francos we're one big minority
[Chorus]
We're pissed, we're tanked, we're smashed on all the glut
We've chug-a-lugged ourselves into a rut
We got lots and sell it oh, so cheaply
Then buy it back and pay it through the teeth
[Chorus]
I need lunch
Feed my now
I need lunch
When€™s my break?!!!
On the top floor, from my penthouse
I survey what I rule
High rises
Thin curtains
All lights go out by two
No one ever sees me
Yet I know all of you
It's sort of like a small town
When your whole lives are on my computer
Ah... Ah...
All the power, none of the stress
So much better being hatchet man
Than a henpecked attention-starved target
Like the big man himself
Our goal is perpetual economic victory
We play with you to amuse ourselves
Our motives are personal
Our motives are political
Our motives are sexual
I know
Hi Ho Hi Ho Hi Ho
The laws we make for others
Don't apply to us
We do what we want
A lethargic population is the key to our control
Who'd rather watch someone's life on tv
Than participate in their own
Mentally they feel helpless
Physically they just give up
We priced the healthy food so high
They can only buy soda pop
A house broken bee colony
That goes home after 5
Too burnt and glazed to threaten us
With purpose in their lives
Ah... Ah...
Ha Ha Ha
We drug their snacks at work
Mix hormones in kids lunch at school
Don't be a pill, it's good for you
The men grow up muscular
Short tempered and kinda dumb
The women develop those outrageous curves
The kind you only used to see
In the movies and magazines
We banned and rounded up for ourselves
Hi-Ho
Hi-Ho
It's off to do our work you go
We melt you with acid rain
Keep you poor for economic gain
Convince you your biggest threat
Is drugs and terrorists
They don't even have to be real
Just find a face, make up a crime
Run sensational headlines
Works every time
The people must not realize
They are being manipulated
For them to be manipulated effectively
We give 'em things to worry about
Buying clothes and losing weight
Your lack of curiosity
Is the key to our success
Your lack of curiosity is the key to our success
Hi Ho
Hi Ho
Hi Ho
Life's so simple and happy
When everything's clear.
I want home, I was feeling so alone
I was late, it was my mistake
I want to my room and sat there in the gloom
I know I've been bad, I know he'll be mad
I hear him coming down the hell
And there's nowhere to go, nowhere at all
I've been had, it was my mistake
He opens the door, his eyes are full of hate
DAD NO! DAD, LEAVE ME ALONE! DAD, NO! DAD, LET ME GO!
DAD NO! DAD, LEAVE ME ALONE! DAD, NO! OH, MY GOD, NO!
NO!
My mom comes rushing in, she says "Please, don't hurt
him" DAD gives her a kick, he slaps her around a bit, he
says: "SHUT UP, YOU BITCH! SHUT UP, YOU BITCH! I'll
KILL YOU! I'll KILL YOU! SHUT UP, I'll KILL YOU!"
DAD keeps hitting mom's face, and there's blood all over the
place I seid, 'Please DAD, please! It es my mistake! I'm the one
that's bad! I'm the one that's bad! Don't hit her DAM Don't hit her
DAD!"
DAD NO! DAD, LEAVE HER ALONE! DAD, LET HER GO! NO!

~~~~~~~~~~
We are living in the, in the dark ages
Haven't seen some daylight in what seems ages
All the information is locked far beyond
Locked in circuits and bathed in silicon
And we're fast asleep with our dreams seething
In and though all is still we are still breathing
But it's him in the dark, he makes me null and void
But it's him in the dark, I think I'm paranoid
A world of half-truths, what goes unspoken
Lines of communication are stripped and broken
And the dark is cold with hands freezing
But this deep-freeze seems strangely pleasing
And the powr-trippers receive facelifts
And the button-pushers all work night shifts
And the misdemeanors seem so ghastly
While the media punch is so lasting
And the Eastern comrades find out much too late
And free men are free to subjugate
Under megashadow, under nine to five
Still it's self-extinction that keeps us alive
We are living in the, in the dark ages
Haven't seen some daylight in what seems ages
All the information is locked far beyond
Locked in circuits and bathed in silicon
I don't know
Go to sleep
I spy with my lizard eye and everything i see is a lie
You know when i told you i would never lie well, that was the first time
Take all the pleasures that you seek
May my heart be full and still be bleak
Cold and alone, hard as stone
Like a fuck when there is no one home
Beauty and fame are meaningless beside
The ability to kill with a look of your eye
But i defy you to see through me
Nothing is all that you will see
Cats, sex and nazis
That's why they call me Mr. Happy
Are you a believer? - well i'm a deceiver
But i lied when i said that honesty was dead
I really belive all the things i say to you
It's just that none of them are true
Zombies eat human flesh
Which part do you like the best?
I like the heart the best
Zombies eat human flesh
If i haven't done all that i could do to hurt you
It's because my love is true
Or because my feelings are a lie
And we live just to suffer and die
I'll put a guarantee on all the beauty that i see
The fairest, the best, the first of the blest
All those whose souls are the ugliest
Hopelessly lost in their bitterness
Love me and you shall be free to join my eternal captivity
Just don't ask me if i believ all this bull
My head is empty but my bowels are full I
don't really think this way
I did yesterday, but not today
Cats, sex and nazis...
Zombies eat human flesh...
I spy with my lizard eye and everything i say is a lie
And what about you? what will you do?
When the sound of my voice touches you
When you hear me say, "This is true."
And the sounds of my voice touches you
This is true, this is true,
The sounds of my voice touches you
This is true, this is true!
This is true, this is true!
Cats, sex and nazis that's why they call me Mr. Happy
Why do i keep saying this over and over all the time?
Because it rhymes, moron
What do i want to hear now, a love song?
Are you in love?
Is it politically correct?
Or are you just another fucking reject?
Are you getting all of this?
Or is there something you have missed?
Zombies eat human flesh...
Do you know why they call me Mr. Happy?
Because I'm so fucking
Smart
Someone's dad passed out in the street
The wind-up key woker bees
Buzz right on by
At night he still lies
There 'cos nobody cares
Insects with briefcases ignore him
Been lying here for days
Not my problem, man
Look man, this is new york
Now the rats are coming to feed
Every night they bring more and more of their friends
Immune to rat poison, totally unafraid
And this is a very special treat indeed
They crawl up my pantleg / I'm too weak to move
No one hears my cries as they start on my toes
Their teeth are like razors as they gnaw at my hands
It sure beats mcdonald's so get it while it lasts
Chew Devour

See the headline in the Post?
No one helped that old man for a week
They're homeless cos they wanna be
Let's talk about sports
Watch 'em tear that old building down
On the way home
But when a bulldozer pops the rubble like a pimple
Volcanoes of rats swarm all over us like bees
As big as a cat, not afraid to chase people
Or nibble on the wipers and vinyl roofs of cars
People are panicking, the cops have all fled
A shotgun will only kill one at a time
And it won't be the last time we run for our lives
From those teeth sinking into our arms and legs
Chew Devour

Mmm Mmm Good
City fathers see a bright future ahead
Where the poor no longer exist
Drive the neighborhood people away from their homes
Paint 'em over and quadruple the rent
Isolate the undesirables in places like Harlem
Our sowetos without walls
If they won't go away
Cops smash their heads
Like they did in Tompkins Square
Those stories give me the creeps
I hope I didn't miss that last train
Some smart-ass plastered life-size pictures of rats
On the walls of the subway station
Funny joke
It's so quiet down here
It's a little too quiet down here
Who's that across the tracks
Smoldering eyes are glaring up at me
Inching closer and closer, almost laughing out loud
The train finally comes, but it won't even stop
Not here, not tonight
I'm off in an hour, I don't wanna get involved
With some guy in a suit fighting rats off his face
Just leave 'em to the night, they'll be gone the next day

Blind, white
Roaring light
The eye of god
Ripping through the night
Now i know
Now i see
A fire of faith
Is consuming me
Light is falling from the sky
Blinding light
Jerusalem
Jerusalem
Bless us all
The holy men
In my faith
I am a sword
In my faith
I serve the lord
Light is falling from the sky
Blinding light
God is great
God is great
He is the wind that roars
And the ground that shakes
The earth's a filthy lying whore
God is love
God is war
Light is falling from the sky
Blinding light
???red what are you scared of? that's nothing that's nothing ???
They say the eyes am the windows of the soul
but I love all the little dark holes in your
BODY BAG.
Your little willie, he's oh, so pretty,
And those titties, and those titties in the
BODY BAG.
Nobody knows you and nobody wants to.
Willie's poised to dive into flesh,
Something teils me he will leave a mess in the
BODY BAG.
When we kiss my eyes am closed,
my lips are full, I breathe through my nose in the
BODY BAG.
Nobody knows you and nobody wants to.
See the children play in the mud,
moulding balls of faces and blood from the
BODY BAG.
All preise for corporal flesh;
the smell of love the smell of death from the
BODY BAG..
Sex is philosophy, philosophy is sex

Sex Sex x is Politics, politics is Sex

The wheels are turning, everything is fine
Her mouth is open end every moan is mine
Another dark hole in a clear, blue eye
And when I look there, what do you think I find?
Something's happening here, but what it is ain't exactly clear
My temperature's beginning to rise, may I throw away my disguise?
It's not love that I bring to you, it's a weapon, a lie and a tool
And the fantasies that fill my mind, they're not tender and they're not kind
They're not kind, they're the kind, they're the kind
That kill
(chorus)
In the sunshine I pass all scrutiny
But when the night comes there is a change in me
For every locked door there is a secret key
And in every dark room there is a light to see
Turn it on, flip the switch, she's not a person, she's just a bitch
And the only joy that comes to me is in the perfect execution of my cruelty
Let me tell you what I see when she is stretched out naked in front of me
I see who I am, and I'm afraid because it's not a man, it's not a man, not a man
It's a beast not a man
lt was such a shame, I'd seen her around but I never know her name
He'd been in trouble from an early age, a problem child full of fear and rage
In the school yard at the back, a security camera caught this violent act
She'd come willing to him, she only wanted to he bis friend
He ripped away her shirt, he called her a whore, said that she was dirt
She was pleading for her lifa, she was screaming, "Why? Why? Why?"
He grabbed her by the hair, threw her down and kicked her there
She couldn't believe her eyes, es he reached in bis pants end pulled it out-It's a knife!
It's a knife! It's a knife! It's a knife!
Is that a cock or a knife?
(chorus)
Are you getting what you want? Are you getting what you see?
Is this the business of pornography?
Can you picture me standing there?
I see it can you picture me way up there?
I see it now my whole life
I see it now my whole damn life
Teresa, what would you die for? What would you die for?
What would you die for, teresa? What would you die for?
Teresa, give me that knife give me
That knife teresa, give me that knife give me that knife teresa
Can you picture me there?
There I m almost there
I'm almost there I m almost there
Teresa, what would you die for? What would you die for?
What would you die for, teresa? What would you die for?
Teresa, give me that knife teresa, give me that knife teresa,
Give me that knife teresa, give me that knife teresa
First I tolf to myself there was no more than the sound
Of the wind through an open door, and if no one
entered it was no crime ?at least it was none of
mine, and all isaw I kept at bay, an empty heard
in an emtpy space, there was no reason for me to
live, I had nothing to give, nothing to give
I closed my eyes and to my surprise my heard
was beating I was still alive
Was there really nothing I could do?
No, it canæ° be true!
Iæ³e been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long
Iæ³e been lying to myself, lying to myself
And it canæ° go on
Cause Iæ¦ lying in state, Iæ³e been lying in a state of grace
Iæ¦ lying in state
Iæ³e ben lying to myself and it canæ° go on
At first I tried to blame the world for all evils
That were unfurled, flags of sin blowing in the
Wind over church and state, the rich and the
Great, but when I listened all I really heard was
My own voice and my own words, sometimes
Begging for love, sometime screaming with
hate, screaming with hate
I donæ° trust that voice in my head, itæ¯ not mine itæ¯ the voice of the dead
And why do you ask me what I think is true?
I learned it all from you!
Iæ³e been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long
Iæ³e been lying to myself, lying to myself and it canæ° go on
Cause Iæ¦ lying in state, Iæ³e been lying in a state of grace
Iæ¦ lying in state
Iæ³e lying to myself and canæ° go on
In the end, you are my only friend and all I see is you,
and all I have to give, my friend, I will give it to you.
Who do I mean? Who am I talking to?
How could it be more plain to you? Wake up.
Look in your heart. Who are you? What is your name?
If I take a shit in your perfect world itæ¯ only so
Youæ£l know me by my smell
And though you turn away like you donæ° understand
You know all too well
You donæ° want to look, you donæ° want to touch
You donæ° want tp pay cause it costs so much
You just smile and wish me well
Well, you can go to hell!
Cause Iæ¦ lying in state, Iæ³e been lying in a state of grace
Iæ¦ lying in state
Iæ³e lying to myself and canæ° go on
I have to have you far too much
I have to grab I have to touch
I have to feel your every curve
I have to stir each little nerve
I want the pleasure I want the pain
I want to overload my brain
I'm going SEX MAD
I want to squeeze your living flesh
Oh, to be buried in your chest
Or steamy breath and gripping bone
I may be lost but not alone
I'm going in riot coming out
I'm going in not coming out
I'm going SEX MAD
I stare at everything that moves
I look all over pick and choose
Well I don't want just anyone
I only want just everyone
I know it's not for me to take
I think my mind is going to break
I'm going SEX MAD
My self control is very fine
Considering what's on my mind
But I don't want to hurt and hate
I simply have to copulate
The more I see the more I want
The more I see the more I want
I'm going
SEX MAD SEX MAD SEX MAD SEX MAD.
As I was driving around aimlessly, a waking dream occurred to me
That everyone I knew had died that day
That my friends, co-workers and loved ones, had all just suddenly passed away
Well, there were drunken car crashes, airline disasters, and suicides that were unexplained
And as I drove past familiar scenes, streets and buildings that were a hundred times seen
As a wave of contentment washed over me, I wondered what this could possibly mean
As the sun spilled its warmth over the houses and trees
I felt that I was finally free
But you know what they say
The world wasn't built in a day
You know what they say
The world wasn't built in a day (no way)
I picked up a woman in the parking lot of the local Safeway
Well, I had seen her face a hundred times but I never knew her name
And as I drove her home she laughed and she sighed and the strain of the moment passed away
I explained how my father had died, how I had seen his body and never cried
She let her hand fall on my leg and there she let it stray
When I dropped her off she asked me up, I politely said I couldn't stay
And as she walked to the door, as those bags of groceries gently swayed
I turned the wheel and muttered to myself, "No way, man, no way"
(Chorus)
Sunset over the mountains and on the harbour that beneath them lay
In long shadows the traffic lights gleamed, red and green, they traced the way
Through a corridor of sidewalks, where people wandered at the end of their day
I drove to my space on the waterfront, picked up my guitar and started to play
Alone I sang for the people that I knew, for my friends and family, and for them I prayed
That no storm would come and sweep them up, that no winds would bear them away
I sang, "Your voice from my throat cries, your heart beats in my chest,
From my head stare your eyes, for you I live and die!
This loneliness is a lie! This loneliness is a lie!"
(Chorus)
The streets were empty as I drove home, the air was cool and the sky was dark
Streetlamps cast their mockery of light over ghostly shapes in an empty night
Should I believe in the things I see? Am I in you? Are you in me?
What should I believe? Tell me. What should I believe?
At home, on the porch, the wind in the trees murmured a background for my waking dream
Where I drive through a city with labyrinth streets, where no one walks, where no voices speak
Where empty towers above me rise toward an empty, starless sky
Like a cold wind washing over me, I saw the meaning of this dream
I felt that I was finally free, I felt that I was finally free
(Chorus)
You lie before me sleeping, your eyes flutter in a dream
Am I in you? Are you in me? What should I believe? What should I believe?
But you know what they say... you know what they say
Of course I think about it
I think about it all the time
Things cross your mind, you can't help it
What you said, what I said
What you did, what I did
But it's all in the past now, what's the difference
You can't change it
I will never be the same I will never change
It will be a long time
When I think about it now, I know you were right
There were too many secrets to keep
Too many obstacles to overcome
And all that talk just made me tired
When I think about it now
When I think about you
I know you were right
You will never be the same you will never change
It will be a long time
I like the graveyard shift
It's quiet, I can read all night
I don't mind wearing a uniform
I don't mind walking in the dark
You make your rounds, you check all the locks
And when the sun rises, when everyone is getting up
You punch out and go home
It will never be the same it will never change
It will be a long time
He pushed her in the alley, and he tried to lay her low
He grabbed her in the dark, this story must be told
She looked him in the eye and his blood ran cold
She said, I know a little story, and this story must be told."
But it's lies, lies, we never heard about it
Lies, lies, and we don't want to know
Lies, lies, we'll never listen
You're a dirty little liar and we don't want to know
His guts were in a knot but her voice it would not stop
She shattered with her chatter all his dreams and all his thoughts
She licked him with her tongue and she tore him with her claws
He beat her and he begged her but he could not make her stop
Nine times she bellyed over him, nine times in the foam she rose
She ripped away his soul like he ripped away her clothes
She said, I know a little story and this story must be told."
He tried to hide, he wandered down the road
He threw away everything that he owned, still he could not bear the load
He grabbed me when I met him and my blood it ran cold
He said, "I know a little story, and this story must be told."
But it's lies, lies, we never heard about it
Lies, lies, and we don't wannt to know
Lies, lies, we'll never listen
You're a dirty little liar and we don't want to know
He rolled his eyes, he laughed and he cried, he said I'd kill myself if I was still alive
He reamed me out with a tongue like sand, cursing in a language that nobody understands
"There she blows!" he turned and he cried, pointing to the centre of an empty sky
There she is, my Lady true! Her laughter cuts my heart in two!
Her eyes are blank, her face is stone! Leave me alone! Leave me alone!
She shattered with her chatter all my dreams and all my thoughts
She licked me with her tongue and she tore me with her claws
She ripped away my soul like I ripped away her clothes
She said, I know a little story and this story must be told.
i got tired, tired, tired of waiting
tired of waiting, waiting for news
tired of waiting for things to improve
tired of waiting, waiting for your letter
tired of waiting for things to get better
i got tired, tired, tired of waiting
tired of waiting, waiting by the phone
tired of waiting here all alone
tired of waiting for something new
tired of waiting for you
i got tired, tired, tired of waiting
i got tired of waiting, waiting in line
tired of waiting for my clothes to dry
tired of waiting for this show to begin
i got tired of waiting for my ship to come in
tired of waiting, waiting for the bus
tired of waiting for my shoes to get fixed
tired of waiting, waiting for my cheque
tired of waiting for a change in the weather
tired of waiting for the water to boil
tired of waiting for the paint to dry
tired of waiting, waiting for a sign
tired of waiting for my big break
tired of waiting for the dam to break
tired of waiting for the bombs to drop
tired of waiting and waiting and waiting
i got tired of waiting for the end
i got tired of waiting because i found out
there's only a fine line between
biding one's time and wasting one's site
do you know what i mean?
Dead souls, Dead souls they're coming, I'know (2 times)
Dead souls, Dead souls they want my soul (2 times)
Dead souls, Dead souls they'll find me, I'know (2 times)
Dead souls, Dead souls they need to feed (2 times)
Dead souls, Dead souls they'll find me, I'know (2 times)
Fog and night after a thirsty day
It was a hot sun beating on an empty plate, you know
That damn dog's barking at the hissing cars
I hear whispers from afar
What was that? what did you say? does what really matter anyway?
Dark eyes staring at the wall
Mascara crumbling beneath the fall of eyelids drooping down
Answer me! what did you say? why do you have to be this way?
"What way is that", was her reply
She smiled and raised her big brown eyes
She said, "i don't give a damn what you do
And I really don't care what happens to you
You can whistle in the dark if you remember the tune
And recite your litany of gloom and doom
But there is one thing you can do for me..."
She shifted her ass and spread her knees
She said, " I don't give a damn what you
Do just pour me a glass of that bitch's brew
No, I really don't care what happens to you do
I want a long cold glass of that bitch's brew"
The rain is coming down in sheets
Windshield's trickling jagged streaks
It's a scripture written on tinted glass
Hissing like a snake in the grass
Something hard lies on the seat
My lips move but I don't speak
My eyes are glued to that blinking sign
And I just sit there, biding my time
"Cheap rooms" it says "open all the time"
Handcuffs ring a tightened fist
Lipstick smears a bloodied lip
What's mine is mine, that's what
I know to have and hold, to keep control
That's all I know
That's all I know and I don't really care what happens next
This has nothing to do with sex
I just need something to see me through
Something to keep me from coming unglued
I don't know what IÅ l do, wait,... I know what IÅ l do
I know what IÅ l do IÅ l pop the cork on that bitch's brew
IÅ l take a long stiff pull on that bitch's brew
I don't want no more I don't want no more
The bartender dragged me across the floor
Don't worry, man, that guy is long gone
"Maybe you shouldn't called him a fucking moron
You shouldn't start things you can't see through
Wow, that guy sure made a mess of you"
Now I lay me down to sleep and pray the lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake, you'll know I had a belly ache
"Shut up, man, shut up, man, you're brain is fried
Now don't stare at me with that look in your eyes"
What's mine is mine what's mine is mine
Said the frog to the snake as he crawled from the slime
My brain is fine, my brain, my brain, my brain is fine
How's that for a goddamned coupled rhyme
"Look man, why don't you just get on this stool
You ain't no poet, you're just a fucking fool"
I don't know what IÅ l do I don't know what IÅ l do
"Try doing what's right
Seek serenity in a world of delights
Till boom, boom, boom, out go the lights
Till boom, boom, boom, out go the lights"
Yea, that's going to help me to see me through
Like that's going to keep me from coming unglued
"Look man, I really don't give a fuck what you do
And I don't really care what happens to you
But there's maybe one little thing that I can do
IÅ l pour you a shot of that bitch's brew
Yea, one quick belt of that bitch's brew
Then you've have to leave, we're closing
You know what they say
You don't have to go home
But you can't stay here"
Like a monkey in a zoo,
you're half gorilla too
When you pound it with your fist
and make it real stiff
Big Dick
Gotta cover your mistakes
your bloody out-takes
So you dip it in the wine
and make a holy sign
Big Dick
Big Dick! Come quick
Big Dick! Come quick
Well, you're running up a tree
you're trying not to scream
then you're pounding on your chest
like you whipped the best
Big Dick
The rivers of the blood
you've spilled have turned to mud
Now the flies are buzzin' round
don't they make a loud sound
Big Dick
Big Dick! Come quick
Big Dick! Come quick
It won't be long
till those bad bits are gone
It won't be long till those bad bits are gone
Now we're sitting by the fire but Daddy's getting tired
'Cause he drank the whole crock
now he's got a limp cock
Big Dick
Big Dick! Come quick

We're bad So bad
We're bad So bad
We're bad So bad
We're bad
We're bad
We're bad
We're bad
We're bad
I feel it in my heart
I believe it in my soul
But we will never live
Long enough to know
Restless and curious
Down in my gut I know
That I will never ever
Want what I am told
Cos
We're bad So bad
We're bad So bad
We're bad So bad
We're bad
We're bad
We're bad
We're bad
We're bad
Mama told me from the start
Got the same rap at school
Heard it so much that now
Guess I believe it too
So guess what kinda crowd
I hang around with now
Being bad is better
Than being nothing at all
We're bad!
Hardly warm you're not feeling normal
Your pulse is faded, could use first aid
Now you private matters need looking after
It's way too late, though, the show can't wait
It's a private screening of life's last gleaming
Your private glory, your personal story
And you're the hero, approaching zero
Now, now, now
Speak your last line
Make it good `cause your tongues like wood
You've got sticks for your arms, it's no false alarm
It's your last hurray, the final straw
And i'm not sory, it's not my worry
´Cause I'm the knife that is full of life
Where there once was we, now there's only me
And you're the hero, approaching zero
Now, now, now
Speak your last line
Should I've warned you that I'm not normal
It's build on tears full of nagging tears
And there is no cure, now it's too obscure
It's TV movies, it's Punch and Judy
It's things obscene on the shining screen
It's a killer's story, a monent's glory
And you're the hero, approaching zero
Yes, you're the hero, approaching zero
Wake up screaming in the middle of the night
Felt a chill and had a terrible fright
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Was I wrong or was I right?
Could it be me, I抳e been walking in my sleep
Mumbling to the secrets that I keep
Was I wrong or was I right?
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Woke up screaming, had a terrible fright
Was I wrong or was I right
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
I hope I am wrong but I know i抦 right
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Hope I am wrong but I know i抦 right
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Saw you in a dram and your eyes were brigt
Stark, staring mad with a terrible light
Everything you said, well it didn抰 sound right
And the way you grined it was a terrible sight
Could it be me, I抳e been walking in my sleep
Laughing and a grinning at hte people that I meet
Was I wrong or was I right?
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Woke up screaming, had a terrible fright
Everything you said, well it didn抰 sound right
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
I hope I am wrong but I know i抦 right
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Hope I am wrong but I know i抦 right
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Was I wrong or was I right?
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Spread it抯 wing an then it took flight
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
I hope I am wrong but I know i抦 right
Thought I saw a devil or an angel in the night
Hope I am wrong but I know i抦 right
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We should not make a fuss
What would become of us
We should not
And that's sad
And that's sad
We must hold on tight
Hold on with all our might
All our might
And that's sad
I demand what you should be
In the name of decency
You'd do the same for me
Lies are the words that I use
when you look up hopefully
All of the things that we feel
are a trick, a fantasy
What is the end?
It is love I pretend
It's calling, it's calling
And I'm falling, I'm falling
And she said, pray to me, pray to me
All the love you see, it comes from me
She said, pray to me, pray to me
All the love you see, it belongs to me
She said, I see, I see
She said, pray to me, pray to me---but it was
All lies, a pack of lies
It was all lies, why don't you fuck off and die
It was all lies, a pack of liesIt was all lies, all lies
Lies are the light and the hope
in your eyes as they shine on me
Tie up my hands with your chains
they are bound to set me free
I'm singing, I'm singing
And to that I'm clinging
The words that I say only drag me away
And I said, pray to me, pray to me
All the love you see, it comes from me
I said, pray to me, pray to me
All the love you see, it belongs to me
I said, I see, I seeI said, pray to me, pray to me---but it was
All lies . . .
Lies are the hopes and the chains that have dragged me here to you
All of these hopes and these chains I will gladly share with you
It's raining, it's pouring
The old man is snoring
It's raining, it's pouring
And I'm falling, I'm falling
And he said, pray to me, pray to me
All the love you see, it comes from me
He said, pray to me, pray to me
All the love you see, it belongs to me
He said, I see, I see
He said, pray to me, pray to me---but it was
Thumb it on the plunger and press it to your inner thigh
A spot of blood, a strand of hair beneath the bathroom light
I want to kiss it and make it feel better
I want to trace in it the twenty fourth letter
But IÅ sick of it already IÅ just a little too high
We'll walk a block and stand in line and watch the flashing lights
The bouncer is a friend of mine, he'll get us in all right
But when we kiss, please don't look me in the eye
When our tongues are twisted, just close them tight
Don't you prefer a bitter taste to a bitter sight?
I do
IÅ just a little too high
Lizard brains and mucus stains and greasy little dove's thighs
Broken wings for eyebrows over glaring, multi-coloured eyes
A clearly traced rib-cage beneath your underarms
Yours finger spread like starfish
It won't do you no harm - so why do you cry?
You're just a little too high
Juvenile delinquents are screaming on the street, black cars and white cars meet
Like cats and sharks and laughing voices peak above the fumes and the rumble
Shots ring out from down the street, skirts ride clear of thighs, hair tumbles
Anger and vomit collide with a right cross
You look a little sick, you look a little lost
You say you can see frost on my breath through my phoney, frozen smile
Excuse me?
You're just a little too
Tangled intravenous tubes, the smell of alcohol and glue
A dildo candle in a skull, you know the routine very well
Your lower back is arched and stiff under my claws
And like a crocodile child I nestle in your jaws
A friend's space, just beds in a place
Is that a nipple? is that a cock?
Surely something sensuous has trickled over us
Like streams of come on porcelain, like cold rain on a rock
We are multi-coloured candies, sweet and hard
Or the salty, jagged edges of crystal quartz
And as you roll over the covers
From one mouth to another
I almost miss you, I almost say goodbye
But IÅ a little too high
When all those tomorrows get crammed into now
You stop like you're froze ans ask yourself how
When all those tomorrows get crammed into now
You stop like you're froze ans ask yourself how
When putting it all in order ain't enough
The tough gets going and the going gets tough
And the things that you thought ain't what it ought
Ought ought to be
When you're laid on the line your dreams will stop
They've drawn you in and they've strung you up
When you're laid on the line your dreams will stop
They've drawn you in and they've strung you up
When putting it all in order ain't enough
The tough gets going and the going gets tough
And the things that you thought ain't what it ought
When the who hits the what and you've run out of luck
You do what you can but you're
When the who hits the what and you've run out of luck
You do what you can but you're
All
I a word
Stuck
Fuck
Is it right what they said?
I'd be better of dead, if it's true
Do you think it's ok?
Or does it break all your precious rules
I've got no reason to worry or to suffer
Many people treated worse, many people treated rough
When you come against the grain they will try to put the blame on you
'Cause they're too scared to move, to come(?) against their precious rule
Chorus:
No Means No
No Means No
I don't worry about sin
I just worry about giving in
To all of their sure stains(?)
To all the terror of fathers and kings
To all the little dictators that shit on everything that's good
To the whiners and the cryers, the screamers and the liars
To the hypocrites who can't live up to all the things they talk about
To the guilty and the proud
I want to shout out loud
Chorus
I don't like you
I don't like the way that you act
I don't care about you
I don't care, and that's a fact
If you want to live in fear
Then run away, just disappear
If you want to run and hide, then shrivel up and burn inside
I don't give a damn for you
The choice is yours, it's up to you
If you wanna live a lie
Then brother, go die
Chorus
I hear the rich guns go pop pop, Arriba!
All this noise has got to stop, Arriba!
All those burns who have no cash, they're lazy!
And if they think they're getting ours, they're crazy!
See them mill around, hear theri angry talk
We will mow them down, we will make them stop
There are people we admire, Arriba!
Those with courage under fire, Arriba!
We will give them uniforms, Il Duce!
We will pay them to perform, Il Duce!
Hear the tramping feet of our hired guns
Doesn't it sound sweet, isn't this such fun
Hear the bullets fly, see the people die, hear the children cry
I hear the rich guns go pop pop
We will send them all around, Arriba!
To kill the fucking underground, Arriba!
Rape the women, they're whores, Las Putas!
Everything they have is yours, Las Putas!
We just want to stay in our safely homes
The chairs onm which we sit are made of human bones
Hear the bullets fly, see the people die, hear children cry
you are here
i am here
fear
bound in fear
we are here
i see here
nothing
all is clear
crystal clear
fear
all that's here
pain and fear
i see here
nothing
hear the angels sing
this is the end of all things
all is clear
nothing's here
fear
what is fear?
nothing's here
i see here
nothing
hear the angels sing
Listen man, never mind who this is
We've got your wife
Yea, your better half, your partner in life
You'll find her Volvo abandoned at the mall
Her credit cards are in the trunk
We don't want that junk
We want the money, and we want it in cash
Cause there are ten sticks of dynamite stuck togethe with duct tape
They're wrapped around her new perm, strapped around her little face
So don't do anything funny, man, don't do anything smart, or we'll
Blow up her head
Listen man, we've got your son
Yea, your one and only heir
The scion of your loins the chosen one e picked him up oft the playing field
You'll get bis short pants by priority mail
We need sonne cash to finance our political aims
Put it in your work-out bag and leave it at the gym
Cause there are ten sticks of dynamitestuck together with duct tape
They're wrapped around his little skull just to stop the constant snivelling
And it we don't hear from you by tomorrow, we'II
Blow up his head
We've got your daughter, that's right
Daddy's little girl, the light of your life
And all we want is every penny you've saved
Empty out your retirement fund and put it in an old suitcase
How do you know we've got her?
We'II send you her little pinkie
You can shove it up your ass and call it stinky
Cause there are ten sticks of dynamite wrapped around her golden locks
And only you have the power to make this stop
And if we don't get everything that we want, we'II
Blow up her head
Forget it man
We're coming after you
We have no political beliefs
We don't want your fucking money
There's just one thing that motivates us
We hate your fucking guts
There are ten sticks of dynamite waiting for you
They'll cover your eyes
They'll muffle your ears
They'll shut your fucking mouth
They'll
Help us, help us, help us,
Please if we could see clearly what we would decide
If there was no desperation, would we be alive?
If there were no windows that we sit inside
If there were no ugly feelings, would we be alive?
Would we be alive?
Help us, help us, help us,
Please would you make me helpless
So that I could be looking for the sight of something that I cannot see
I'd be floating in the ocean, floating in the sea
Floating in a drifting wind,
I wish that I could be floating in a liquid, nice and thick and warm
Floating where there is no pleasure and there is no harm
Life could be so pleasant, if we all could be
Helpless, hopeless creatures just marching to the sea
Would we be alive?
=========
When I speak the words I repeat
Are lost within this roaring
And when I call your eyes turn to me
But what are they exploring ?
Hidden shapes that pass fast away
Upon the waters streaming
And what I see I just cannot say
There is no one to heed me
I could say that I am sorry
But what forgiveness lies before me ?
In the river
Those who know me know all too well
All my sins and failings
But brother dear, how could I tell ?
The course that I was sailing
In the flood, before my eyes
I see the face that I despise
In the river
It's mine, it's mine
Drifting far away
I can see you'rte not very strong
As the current sweeps you past me
Ans I can see your head going down
As helpless your cries find me
"Help me ! Save me ! Lend me a hand !
Pull me out ! Pull me out !
Save me ! Save me ! Give me your hand !
Pull me out ! Pull me out !"
I would save you, give my life
But it's already sacrificed
To the river
It's gone, it's gone
Drifitng far away
Mothers tell your children the truth
Don't hide the fate that's waiting
When you're born you start to drown
There's no help, no safety
First a gift of love is given
Then the winds rise, the sails are riven
I've been sentenced to all the things I had to do
And a naked Image grew out of my hands
A craftsman without tools, I fashioned these for you
Voiceless words and sketches of imaginary lands
Always just we two, the bunter and pursued
With every step I had you and with every step you flew
I can see the glow begin to fade
I can feel there's trouble to be made
My left leg is numb I can't feel my tongue
She cheats me, I know it I know it, she cheats me
Sing for us you little shit
Show us all your dirty tricks
For the fever we do long
Sing that filthy little song
This the rape, the rape, the rape, this is the
I realize now that all my tears have dried
All this pain and heartache was just my foolish pride
What difference could there be, what significance to me
If the moon should fall or if the sun should rise
Always just we two, bloody red and thoughtful blue
The naked image grew and stood before my eyes
I'm afraid there's nothing left to say
I can see you turn and walk away
My right side is dead
I can't feel my head
She cheats me, I know it
I know it, she cheats me
Now we have you, this is fun
From yourself you cannot run
Sing for us that serenade
What it's like to be afiaid
This is the, the rape, the rape, this is the
I walk around like a zombie or a clown
My feet are yellow clay
My head is talking all the time, every minute second of the day
My knees are weak
My breath, it reeks
My face is lined
I have no time
My lips are dry
They're red, my eyes
My palms are viel
I can't forget
She cheats me, know it
I know it, she cheats me
I had to call, I know it's late
I had to talk, I had to hear you
Say something, say anything
The line is silent but I feel your breath
That silence - it's death, it's death
It's killing me
There is so much that I regret
I can't exist like this
I need forgiveness
Play along now, keep him on now
Across the boundaries of time and space
We will hunt him with our deadly trace
I was sitting home on my own
I just thought I would phone
Just thought I would phone, yeah
I got your number and I know where you live
I don't wanna hurt you, I just want to give
My heart my heart, do you hear it, I抣l rip it out
I still hear those cries and those tears
That look in your eyes
I just wanna apologize
I抦 sorry, god, I抦 sorry
All that I抳e done all my mistakes
I can't live with my disgrace, I抦 damned
Play along now, sing a song now
With the aid of our technology
We will suck him down eventually
I was sitting home on my own I
Just thought I would phone
Just thought I would phone, yeah
Listen to the bells, listen to the bells
I am a crab, I live in a shell
You call this living, I call it
Hell! I抦 living in hell
I see your picture on the bedroom door
That's all I have to hang onto
Anymore
That's all I抳e got that's just one voice, it's loud and it's clear
The day of judgement, it's here
Play along now, sing along now
I was sitting home on my own
I just thought I would phone
In san francisco you can be mayor at 18
But ya gotta be 26 to drive a cab
What goes on
Is not what we're told to see
Patrick henry said "Give me liberty or death"
A the time he owned 65 slaves
The myth is real - Let's eat
Fake patriots say you can't burn the flag
But guess who whines the most
'bout having to pay taxes
To their country
Decay
Decline
Cover up
Refine
Dow Jones
Where's home
When everything we lean on
Is up for sale
Ad lady purrs, "Drink our liquor, you'll get laid"
Next billboard says, "Don't drink and drive"
What goes on is not what we're told to see
Panic! Panic! War on drugs
But you can buy beer at gas stations
The myth is real - let's eat
Pagan priests first used perfume
To mask the smell of burning flesh
Back in ancient Rome
The statues were unscrewed
Leaders change - just replace the heads
Decay
Decline
Cover up
Refine
We are
In life
Roulette wheel
Or the ball inside
Anyone out there stopped to think
What our lives might be like today
If Karl Marx was as good a salesman
As Walt Disney
The bacon brought
You home to cook
The lobster lets
Itself get boiled
Looks too hard to climb
Out of the pot with all the crabs
Fear the unknown
Who taught you that?
One hundred million trees a year
Get made into junk mail no one reads
What goes on is not what we're told to see
Half of all americans don't read books
I'm one of them, but you're reading this
The myth is real - let's eat
General Robert E. Lee
Freed his slaves before Grant freed his
Brian Willson's legs
Severed by a train
The crew sues him for stress
Levis were once made of hemp *
From the marijuana plant
One acre makes four times more paper
Than an acre of trees
More protein than soy beans
Threat to logging companies
Du Pont and tobacco barons
Got it banned in '37
The world is made of connections
So many sheep in wolf's clothing
Scary times are never dull
How long before our empire falls
No one wants the Pentagon
Toilets for six hundred bucks
Japanese spend twice as much
On pinball as defense
Meanwhile concerned citizens
In Albany, Oregon
Try to ban a book
'Cos it makes fun of Santa Claus
We're told 80% of people like the President in the polls
While only 15% believe he's in control
And 64% of lowans surveyed
Want to be reincarnated as themselves
Wowee...
======================
There are those who are silent yes who talk all of the time
Their faces never really show the way their quiet footsteps go
And when I greet them my mask is just the same
I put no trust in the crooked and the lame
If you want to walk just get up on your feet
And if you want to talk just open your mouth and speak
What is the ugly secret that you cherish in you heart
The truth you can't stand, that drives you from the land of the living
The land of the living
A smile is not a friednship and those heart-felt words are cheap
They are as shallow as a puddle in the street
Like the tear drops that you shed for the humble and the weak
As you float over their bodies to the promised land you seek
Where there is no one to ask you who you are or what you've done
You're a face without a name with nothing to explain
Oh, the dead who walk among us, what they take they don't give back
See their hollow smiling faces as they ride upon the backs of the living
The land of the living
Addition and subtraction is a cold and sober art
But there is no place for taking stock in matters of the heart
Either you are genuine or you are not
Inflated with self-righteousness, afloat upon the wind
But for all your bloated virtues, I wouldn't give a sin
My allegiance is to those who are alive
Those who wear it on their sleeve, who do not run and do not hide
Foolish little monkeys playing in the land of the living
I did not sail the seas or fly on the wind
But I found the jungle and myself within
I found you before I found myself
But to the natives I looked like everyone else
Brown skin under a tropical sun in the Jungle
And then I heard the bass and felt the wind on my face
As it throbbed and rippled from an inland place
I found the sand and then my feet
And I followed the trail of repetetive beats
Into the drakness, in under the trees of the Jungle
The guitrar抯 cries were like a flickering fire
And I saw the light before I opened my eyes
I would only find what I was looking for
As crawled beneath the brambles on the forest floor
I had been here many times before
Hear the voices cry and see the sparks fly
As before my eyes in the stinging smoke
A streaming beast is at the end of ist rope
At the end of fear, at the end of hope
Round and round, beyonf ist reach
Teh shadows flickered on the circling trees
The naives dance, naked and wild
Stamping their feet, and twirling their knives
No one knows whta I felt in my heart
As I rose to my feet and played my part in the Jungle
The bass is the love that I feel in my heart
The guitar you see is my learing tree
The drums are the sound that you heard from the start
They the are tools of the trade, of the craft and the art
But when will I sail across endless seas?
And what message will fly on the wind to me?
What will is see in the smoke and the sparks?
Of course I think about it
I think about it all the time
Things cross your mind, you can't help it
What you said, what I said
What you did, what I did
But it's all in the past now, what's the difference
You can't change it
I will never be the same I will never change
It will be a long time
When I think about it now, I know you were right
There were too many secrets to keep
Too many obstacles to overcome
And all that talk just made me tired
When I think about it now
When I think about you
I know you were right
You will never be the same you will never change
It will be a long time
I like the graveyard shift
It's quiet, I can read all night
I don't mind wearing a uniform
I don't mind walking in the dark
You make your rounds, you check all the locks
And when the sun rises, when everyone is getting up
You punch out and go home
It will never be the same it will never change
It will be a long time
Do you know the meaning of? – this is love, this is love
(This is love, this is love
give me just a little shove
this love-)
This is
The end is nothing
And you begin with nothing much
It starts with something (you see something, you feel something)
A gentle touch, a vicious punch
Just lean on over (roll on over, please move over)
You will get a little shove
Over your shoulder
A whisper saying „This is love, this is love-„
This is
First we feel
Then we fall
Baby he is crawling
The world before his eyes unfoldds
He's hearing voices (teeling stories, dirty stories)
And Baby does as he is told
The night is falling (Baby's crawling, voices calling)
Mommy's holding Daddy close
Baby hears her calling
„Give me just a little shove, this is love –„
This is
First we feel
Then we fall
The Tower's falling
I think the dam's about to burst
The walls are falling (hear them rumble, see them tumble)
The light is blinding, you go first
It starts with nothing (out of nothing, into nothing)
First and last, last and first
There's just one question
Do you know the meaning of? –this is love, this is love
(This is love, this is love
give me just a little shove
this is love-)
This is
First we feel
Come the night, come the night
All the man want to fuss and tight
But not me, not me
`Cause that's not what i want to be
Cause I'm Mama's little boy
Mam tells me everything she sees
Well it may scare you but it don't scare me
Cause I'm Mama's little boy
I like what i want to see
All day long she watches her dancing sons
Come the night she picks the talles one
But I'm Mama's little boy
I've nothing to hide
All the Gods, the Gods of the sun
They're just bastards sons
Daddy, Daddy, come and see
The onslaught of insanity
Cause I'm Mama's little boy
And I'm mad
There's a place where I want to be
And it's dark there, there's nothing to see
And you're alone, there's nothing you can do
Something's coming, something's coming to you
You are- you don't know where you are
You are- you don't know who you are
You are€"you don't know what you are
You ae helpless, you are helpless
That's where I want to be, there's where I want to be
Cause I'm Mama's little boy
I feel, I can feel
Joy
I recall at the end of it all
You were on your knees and I was standing tall
But is my memory deceiving me?
Was I hanging there while you prayed for me?
Remember how when the show was done,
We were dancing and singing and having some fun,
Then I heard you speak, your voice was bleak---
"What we forget we must repeat."
R-E-M-E-M-B-E-R, R-E-M-E-M-B-E-R
I remember the tricks of the trade,
Who got left behind and who made the grade,
And I don't need the pages of some master plan
To tell me what to do or tell me who I am
But when all is said and all is done,
Under the yellow glow of a setting sun,
It really doesn't matter what you have done,
You are blind and deaf and dumb
R-E-M-E-M-B-E-R, R-E-M-E-M-B-E-R
I remember an endless space
And the tolling bells of some holy place
Is it a dream that comes back to me
Or a memory that I can barely see?
Not the voices that haunt my mind
Of the friends and lovers I have left behind.
What I see, what comes back to me,
Is a place I cannot find.
If I could travel back in time
I'd go to 1899
High in the Sierra Hills
And ride the lumber down the Sanger flume
The flume
Ride the flume
Ride the flume
Ride the flume
Watch out for that tree
Forget log rides in amusement parks
This one's 50 miles long
Water slide with four foot sides
Down the mountain, 60 miles an hour
Drop through the Devil's Slide
Four thousand feet in 13 miles
Miss a curve, ya sail into space
Hope them 2 x 4's don't break
The flume
Ride the flume
Ride the flume
Me and you
Va-va-voom!
Watch out for that tree
Watch out for that tree!
Around
Around
To the sides of the cliffs we cling
The trestle creaks
As we're swept across the canyon
100 feet below
Rickety timbers - please don't fail me now
Oh no...
Watch out for that tree
Watch out for that tree
Or its pine cone sex face first
Nothing, nothing,
Nothing, nothing
Zero
They lied about the function of the eyes
About the walks and the doors and the mirrors inside
I saw a mushroom cloud, I took a rocket€™s ride
And the flash of the blast really opened my eyes
I went BOOM DOOM
I€™ve been living in a dream
Now i€™m washing my hands will they ever come clean
I went BOOM DOOM
I€™m not naked and free
While the eyes of the blind are staring at me
My tribe is the indifferent kind
Stubmling round in the valley of the blind
What are you afraid you€™ll see
If you open your eyes and take a look at me
Tell me once, tell me fifteen times
Just give me my cue and I remember my lines
€šCause i€™m quick, I€™m fast and I aim to please
Tell me what you want and that€™s what i€™ll be
I went BOOM DOOM
And I heard someone laugh
€žGet your ass of the floor€œ, as they kicked in the door
I went BOOM DOOM
We€™re dying like flies
But i€™m hypnotyzed by the look in your eyes
My tribe is the indifferent kind
Stubmling round in the valley of the blind
What are you afraid you€™ll see
If you open your eyes and take a look at me
Won€™t you look at me
Don€™t you want to see
What you made of me
Look at me
Why don€™t you look at me
You€™ll see
Nothing, nothing,
Nothing, nothing
I must have been mean or bad
I must have spoke out of turn or must have made somebody mad
Although I have never been a dominant force
I just slide along, take the easiest course
But there is nothing I wouldn€˜ do
To make you see, to get through to you
I haven€™t crawled through a jungle of lies just to be
hypnotized by the look in your eyes
I went BOOM DOOM
All is not what is seems
I€™m a fool, I€™ve been had, I€™ve been living in a dream
I went BOOM DOOM
I€™m not naked and free
While the eyes of the blind are staring at me
My tribe is the indifferent kind
Stubmling round in the valley of the blind
What are you afraid you€™ll see
If you open your eyes and take a look at me
Won€™t you look at me
Don€™t you want to see
What you made of me
Look at me
Why don€™t you look at me
You€™ll see
Nothing, nothing,
Nothing, nothing
As I was driving around aimlessly, a waking dream occurred to me
That everyone I knew had died that day
That my friends, co-workers and loved ones, had all just suddenly passed away
Well, there were drunken car crashes, airline disasters, and suicides that were unexplained
And as I drove past familiar scenes, streets and buildings that were a hundred times seen
As a wave of contentment washed over me, I wondered what this could possibly mean
As the sun spilled its warmth over the houses and trees
I felt that I was finally free
But you know what they say
The world wasn't built in a day
You know what they say
The world wasn't built in a day (no way)
I picked up a woman in the parking lot of the local Safeway
Well, I had seen her face a hundred times but I never knew her name
And as I drove her home she laughed and she sighed and the strain of the moment passed away
I explained how my father had died, how I had seen his body and never cried
She let her hand fall on my leg and there she let it stray
When I dropped her off she asked me up, I politely said I couldn't stay
And as she walked to the door, as those bags of groceries gently swayed
I turned the wheel and muttered to myself, "No way, man, no way"
(Chorus)
Sunset over the mountains and on the harbour that beneath them lay
In long shadows the traffic lights gleamed, red and green, they traced the way
Through a corridor of sidewalks, where people wandered at the end of their day
I drove to my space on the waterfront, picked up my guitar and started to play
Alone I sang for the people that I knew, for my friends and family, and for them I prayed
That no storm would come and sweep them up, that no winds would bear them away
I sang, "Your voice from my throat cries, your heart beats in my chest,
From my head stare your eyes, for you I live and die!
This loneliness is a lie! This loneliness is a lie!"
(Chorus)
The streets were empty as I drove home, the air was cool and the sky was dark
Streetlamps cast their mockery of light over ghostly shapes in an empty night
Should I believe in the things I see? Am I in you? Are you in me?
What should I believe? Tell me. What should I believe?
At home, on the porch, the wind in the trees murmured a background for my waking dream
Where I drive through a city with labyrinth streets, where no one walks, where no voices speak
Where empty towers above me rise toward an empty, starless sky
Like a cold wind washing over me, I saw the meaning of this dream
I felt that I was finally free, I felt that I was finally free
(Chorus)
You lie before me sleeping, your eyes flutter in a dream
Am I in you? Are you in me? What should I believe? What should I believe?
But you know what they say... you know what they say
Well, Christ was married on the cross
My father was married to my mother
And I am married to a cigarette butt lying in the gutter
And I am married to a cigarette butt lying in the gutter
Oh, that's too bad, isn't it
Rags and bones, are we finally alone?
White Man, you, you just starting to get the blues
I said, White Man, you, you just starting to get the blues
The blues
Rags and bones, are we finally alone?
The beast has arisen, all sins are forgiven
The beast has arisen, all sins are forgiven
In the belly of the beast I shall be released
In the belly of the beast I shall be released
She rises, Captain! She rises, Captain!
Captain---dive, dive! Captain---dive, dive!
If I could choose to believe or not to believe
You know I would choose not to
If I could choose to believe or not to believe
You know I would choose not to
But I can't choose
Not to
Rags and bones, are we finally alone?
Any old rags and bones?
Who would have thought that I would be
A sailor on the deep blue sea
A tree stands in a field
The field is bordered by a road
The road leads to a house on a hill
I live there still
No house stands on that hill
Never did, never will
And where that road goes no trees grow
I live there still
When I was a child I hid when you called my name
But then you found me and pulled me out
And hurt me just the same
I saw the open would
I saw the blood flow out
I saw my mother turn to me
When she heard my voice call out
This would will never heal
And nothing could matter less than what i think or what i feel
This would will never heal
I hope you love me
I need you wil all my soul
But what you feel and who you are
Is something i will never know
What surrounds me gives no shelter
What binds me does not hold
And the light that bathes me and warms my skin
In my eyes is always cold
That light falls through a window
See the figure that's seated there
She hold an ivory handled comb
And draws it through her hair
There is no light to see by
There is no one sitting there
But the coldness that is in my heart
Is more than i can bear
This would will never heal
And nothing could matter less than
What i think or what i feel
From deep and dark and dirty
Come creeping, crawling, squirming menace, threat
To frighten the world socialistic coelomate
Segmentated separatist they're tunnelling holes in our home.
Look here come the wormies
Look here come the wormies
Look here come the wormies
They're going to take us all take us away
Sitting in your duplex home talking on the telephone
Hungry wormies are very near
Anarchaic annelid oligochaeta
Revolt overthrow and be overthrown
Chorus
Now we've settled down again
I got a two ton wreck wrapped around my neck
A weekend bender, on bustend suspender
I've aged three years, cried a couple of tears
I told the cop i coul'nt remember
When i saw you
Where you were
Who you were with
I only wish that you both would phone
And try not to surrender
I told the judge i couldn't remember
And as you are answering all of their questions
I have just got one suggestion
Try not to stutter
I was Jo Cool for an indian summer
A camp fire wag, a long distance runner
I had the big eyes following my every move
But icouldn't let down or I'd lose
There was a snot nose kid trying to blow my cover
If they won't buy that I'll tell them another
Then two of the boys shot down my noised
The one with the van and his brother
They casually mentioned a couple of kids
An unspoken challenge, ok here
Try not to stutter
She was of to base to know the meaning of fear
With her cutt-offs swaying from here to there
The music's her maker, the giver the taker
That's what i hear
She smiled so fine, but not very friendly
With a studied wink, €žOh Baby you sned me!€œ
You've got a box full of trophies that's what i hear
And as you try to fashion the perfetct time
There's just one thing to keep in mind
Try not to stutter
(you can mumble, soft and low, mutter mutter so they think you know,
but there's just one thing that has got to go)
Try not to stutter
Mixed emoitions up for grabs in bed
He wants some love unreal
Fixture of his imagination
He finds love an easy victim
Pretending you don't care
Pretending you don't mind
Pretending it's all right
Pretending you're just fine
Tuck it away
In all her best pretensions, she made
Real all her inventions, now she抯
Everything she knew she would be
She finds love an easy victim
Pretending you don抰 care
Pretending you don抰 mind
Pretending it抯 all right
Pretending you抮e just fine
Tuck it away
We all agree it抯 such a bore
Don抰 talk about it anymore
We all agree it抯 such a bore
Don抰 ever talk about it
Don抰 even think about it
He kept trying
He kept trying
But he couldn't find out
Why he couldn't stop crying
Only so many songs can be sung
With two lips, two lungs and one tongue
She kept praying
She kept praying
That she would understand
What she was saying
Only so many songs can be sung
With two lips, two lungs and one tongue
He kept dreaming
He kept dreaming
Of the day they'd realize
What he was feeling
Only so many songs can be sung with two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Only so many songs can be sung with two lips, two lungs and one tongue
Only so many songs can be sung with two lips, two lungs and one tongue
You must feel funny. You must feel flattered
I heard you wem sick. He must be very worried
This is what true love is all about hunger
Get out your valentines. Get out your revolver
We all know
He had a love thing
And he's got something for you
You have a thing for him
A chance romance one in 200 million
You betrayed your duty. It might have been a lovely wedding
I'm sure he forgives you for what you did to him
Sand him a postcard. Maybe you two could go out on a date
I know, I was in love once
I had a love thing and he's got something for you
You have a thing for him
So what am you going to do
Are you going to be so stupid? Don't be so fucking stupid
What are you going to do?
Put yourself away in one of those books
"Whatever happened to?"
I love you
Don't look so surprised I mean that he tried to kill
the guy It's just an extension of what we all feel for
each other At some point in our lives.
Don't look so surprised I mean that he tried to kill
the guy It's just an extension of what we all feel for
Nuclear satellites
Thrown up in space
Will all burn out some
Day guess where they'll crash
We've been lucky so far
Every toy up there is another chernobyl
Waiting to happen
Why?
Space shuttle blew up again
People drop dead
News says "don't worry"
Then the truth comes out
Since 1988
Every shuttle in space
Has carried 46
Pounds of plutonium
Why?
I don't know
I'm scared to care
Enough plutonium
That if it blows
The fallout cancer
Could kill 5 billion people
So now it's over
It's really over
Space junk in the street
Irradiated atmosphere
Fallout covers the earth
Greenhouse so hot we fry
Six months, maybe years
We all know we'll die
So - what matters now?
Nothing matters now
Imagine what would happen
If everyone on earth
Realized this at once
Gonna go loot stores!
Piss anywhere!
Break into peoples houses
Play with their underwear
Strew all my prizes in the street
You can't take it with you
Nothing left to do
But go home
And bolt the doors
Why?
Let's curl up real close
And tell each other
All the things we still don't know
About our lives
Why?
Falling space junk in the streets
Eadiation in the air
Nothing left that's safe to eat
The sky is melting
And I want my mommy.
the sword of truth is just another weapon
let me live for just one more second
i see a woman, she's holding flowers
a bouquet of roses that are blood red
from a burning building, a man leaps to his death
i stand above these mansions of the dead
red tombs and above us looms
the tower
i see red
i see a tower against the sky
beneath a red unblinking eye
radiowaves curve and cross
i stand below them - lost!
above me is a black obelisk
and the dangers that i risk
here gather the ghosts of the mind
that tear my heart and here i find
all the traps that have been set
everything i would forget, beneath
the tower
i see red
i see a tower against the sky
beneath a red unblinking eye
violence is close at hand
you are damned if you do
and if you don't - damned!
a red eye, tyrant full of hate
glares from the sky, it's captive state
if it should blink or deviate
a thousand worlds would obliterate
i do not move, nor do i speak
beneath that hard and pitiless peak
of concrete, steel and antennae wheels
the tower
i see red
i see a tower against the sky
I grew days
I grew them long
I grew them short
I wasted them all away
LONG DAYS...
I wasted them away
Count the hours
Count the minutes
Look into that hole
Can you see what's in it?
LONG DAYS
I wasted them away
See them stretch
Far behind me
See them crouch
Right behind me
See them pass
Right beside me
See them stretch
Out before me
LONG DAYS...
Red devil bites your neck
Your tongue's stiking out, your cock is erect
You've run out of screams, you've scattered the deck
Red Devil
Blue eyed creep, dig your hands in deep
Red Devils squawks like a night bird in the jungle heat
In warm water my tongue creeps
But don't make too much noise, cause the monster's asleep
Your cock is erect, your tongue's sticking out
You're shaken and taken and cast all about
Red Devil
You're burning, you're burning
Flame and steam, the blush of lust
Red Devil
Blue eyed creep, dig your hands in deep
Crawl in, crawl in, crawl in deep
Your dreams are wet and then you forget
The monster's asleep
Fog and night, endless fight
I rise from the muck a Prince of Cups
Tou shhalt not kill, this is my will
Rise up and kill, this is my will
Red Devil
Up from the muck, my tongue's in the cup
Rise up and kill, this is my will
I watch everything on TV and I'm terrified, it scares me
A child molester killed my little boy
Someone phoned me to tell me, to tell me
But the call came in while I was asleep
I heard the answering machine in my sleep
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
I toss and turn all night
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
It's just an endless night
Someone choked my little boy
It was a plastic toy that should never have come to market
I saw it advertised on TV
And it scared me
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
I toss and turn all night
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
It's just an endless night
I am the man with X-ray eyes
Con you see through me?
To reality
I remember the lessons that were taught to me on educational V
I saw them walk on the moon but i never left my room
They killed my little boy and then they showed it to me
They called it reality...
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
I toss and turn all night
I'm dreaming and can't wake up
It's just an endless night
I hear the rich guns go pop pop, Arriba!
All this noise has got to stop, Arriba!
All those burns who have no cash, they're lazy!
And if they think they're getting ours, they're crazy!
See them mill around, hear their angry talk
We will mow them down, we will make them stop
There are people we admire, Arriba!
Those with courage under fire, Arriba!
We will give them uniforms, Il Duce!
We will pay them to perform, Il Duce!
Hear the tramping feet of our hired guns
Doesn't it sound sweet, isn't this such fun
Hear the bullets fly, see the people die, hear the children cry
I hear the rich guns go pop pop
We will send them all around, Arriba!
To kill the fucking underground, Arriba!
Rape the women, they're whores, Las Putas!
Everything they have is yours, Las Putas!
We just want to stay in our safely homes
The chairs on which we sit are made of human bones
Hear the bullets fly, see the people die, hear children cry
I hear the rich guns go pop pop
Yea, here i am in Northwest US
Watching the world making it's mess
I should be worried, should be depressed
But i'm not worried i must confess
[Refrain]
I want to see the fire fall from the sky
See the nuclear blast with my own eyes
The world is too gone to resurrect it
We need the war heads to disinfect it
So, here i am waiting for the raid
The time has come for dues to be paid
I'm just sitting here by the trident base
With a twenty sixer and a brand new case
[Refrain]
I want to see it
I want to see it so I can't tell my children
Disinfect it!
Yes, it will be like fourth of july
Come on you soviets
Let your missiles fly
And you americans, get off your asses
Let's see those bombers make some passes
I want to break the things that seek
To control, I want to live my life with
No rules at all, I want to smash the
Lips that smile down on me, I want
To rip and teer until I am free
Steady, keep it, steady
METRONOME
I want to touch the places lost deep
Inside, I want to see the ugly faces
That hide, I want to mach down to the
End of what's there, I went to strip
The surface till all is bare
Steady, keep it, steady
METRONOME
I want to jump out of my skin and be
Free, I want to kill the little thing that
Is me, I want to laugh and giggle, I want
To scream, I want to wake up from this
Life crushing dream, I want to wash my
Body bare in the stream, I want to
Liberate this human machine, I want to spit
And grovel I want to shit, I want to
Make you wonder what is it? What
Is it?
You know one thing that I think attracts people
To a steady beat, to a steady beat, is the certainty
Of where it will be, of where it will be, in the next
Moment, it's inevitability with no variation, the
Comfort and security of knowing what and who you
Are, you hear that beat, you hear that beat, it's
Beating on you, it's beating on me, you hear that beat,
You hear that beat, it's beating on you, it's
Too much, stay out all night
Too much, but that's alright
Too much, do it to it
Too much, now do it again
Too much, play for Stienies
Too much, play for cash
Too much, put up or shut up
Too much is not enough
Oh, no! Bruno!
Too much is not enough
Too much, hit the night clubs
Too much, drink champagne
Too much, double bull's eye
Too much, do that again
Too much, stay out all night
Too much, but that's alright
Too much, such a big guy
Too much is not enough
Oh, no! Bruno!
Too much is not enough
Too much, no escaping
Too much, you've been framed
Too much, the cops are knocking
Too much, no not again
Oh, no! Bruno!
Too much is not enough
Twenty for two
Thirty for six
You sonofabitch, go!
Oh, no! Bruno!
there is light coming in
through the crack in the door
there is hope
where i'd never expect it before
there are so many things
but there's nothing at all
you are learning to stand
i am learning to fall.
as the air in the night
becomes cooler and sweet
i get up seven times
just to cover his feet
there is pain
but i've packed it away for next year
there is newness and grace and for now,
there's no fear.
then
i can hardly remember what then used to be
then
there was someone i knew
looked exactly like me
i was running and running
with so much to boast
and i had no idea
what matters the most
as the air in the night
becomes cooler and sweet
i get up seven times
just to cover his feet
there is pain
but i've packed it away for next year
there is newness and grace and for now,
there's no fear.
later
when all of this has turned to songs
and faded pics
later
when colored wooden blocks
turn into heavy bricks
later
when you will greet me only
with the shyest smile
who knows what later brings?
and so meanwhile.
there is light coming in
through the crack in the door
there is hope
where i'd never expect it before
there are so many things
but there's nothing at all
you are learning to stand
In our town, murders, happen everyday
When the temperature, rises they open the hydrants, and let the children play
In our town, friday, is payroll day
The taverns open, the sun goes down, the neon signs make a grand display
In our town, murders, happen everyday
There are whores walking the streets
They ain't pretty and they ain't cheap
We've got cops walking the beat
Stopping all the strangers they meet
Tn our town, martyrs, hang from the gallows pole
Newsboys cry on every corner, some high and mighty, has been brought low
In our town, friends, gather on the boulevard
The merchants are fat and happy, the beggar's life is hard
In our town, martyrs, hang in the gallows yard
There are guns, guns - banging on the door of flesh
There are guns, guns - the fire and smoke scratch my breath
There are guns, guns - and empty eyes staring up in death
There are guns, guns - banging on the door of flesh in our town
Muezzins, call form the minarets
Monks bow before their beggar bowls
While christians smoke their cigarettes
In our town, prophets, warn of a judgement day
Young girls hang out of window sills, a flowery frame for their charms' display
In our town, the river, smells of oil and shit
A hundred cranes stand in the harbour, loading a hundred ships
In our town a thousand tongues speak from a thousand lips
We've got whores walking the streets
Stopping all the strangers they meet
We've got cops walking the beat
They ain't pretty and they ain't cheap
In our town, the skyline, is like a mountain range
The streets are wind swept canyons, the central park is a grassy plain
In our town, the saints, smile down on festival days
In tropical plumage, the black girls dance for the king of the big parade
In our town, the bosses, curse the working man
Husbands curse their wives, and then they raise their hands
(Refrains)
In our town the sirens answer to 911
Another soul is flying free from another mother's son
In our town, the bodies, are cremated by the riverside
Up to the morning sun they rise
The flames, the smoke, the widow's cries
A stain of ashes, soot and sparks upon the dawning, rosy light
One fine day
When I'm strong enough
It stand up out of this chair
And walk away
One fine day
If I live long enough
You'll see the back of me as I'm
Walking away
I'll go on and on and on
Across the Porch and over the lawn
And when 1 reach the street
See the dust fly off my feet
One fine day
I will settle up
Empty my account
And give it away
And on that day
Conversation will cease
The arguments and questions
Will fade away
I'll go on and on and on
To the edge of town
I'll keep my feet on the ground
But never again will I look down
I'll be on my ...
Maybe I have no guts
Maybe I love you all too much
But I can't sleep I can't breath
It's tearing me up, it's tearing me up
It's tearing the heart out of me
One fine day
I'll wake up to find
All my fears and heartaches
Have melted away
And on that day
All the mists will clear
The sun will shine
And nothing will stand in my way
I'll go on and on and on
I hauled my ass to hell and gone
put the boots to the dawn
The sky was empty and the stars were bright
But it snowed like December on a summer night
All that screaming and all those moans
Honey, don't it make you cry
lt wasn't very pretty and it wasn't real nice
But that was no big surprise
I saw your heart when I looked in your eyes
That's where the shadows lie
Stop your whining you son of a bitch
I've got the bull by the horns, I've got my hand on the whip
All you showed me was a clever disguise
You thought I wasn't wise
Bot I saw your heart when I looked in your eyes
And that was no big surprise
All of your schemes and those well laid plans
Have come tumbling down
Nothing will be left of this ruin end death
You're out of money end you're out of breath
I'm lighter than air, I'm a cloud of smoke
You're fucking finished end that's no joke
With a snap of my fingers, in the blink of an eye
That was no big surprise
Can you hear my prayer?
As it floats on high
Do you want to know why?
Like the fish in the deep blue see
Like an eagle in a clear blue sky
I've got no time to wonder why
I've got a gun in my pocket and a knife in my hand
I'm one hell of a man
I'm ten feet tall, I've lived a thousand years
I've got nothing to hope for and nothing to teer
I carved a path from here to there, end then I
Vanished into thin air
I took the big plunge and I won the big prize
Don't ask me what to do
I get sick just thinking about you
And when I look at all we've done
I went to walk away just hang my head und pray
That you will, look at me, what da you see?
Am I the king of the hill, standing over his kill?
Well baby
The taste of blood is sweet, I'll lay this carcass at your feet
lf you'll only keep me company
This is it, my politics this is it
I've learned to hate, it's much to late
This is it, my politics
I stand before you, a simple man
A sly dog
A politician
This is it, my politics this is it
I've seen more than I can stand
But in my acts and deeds I'm a political man
I'll give you, I'll give you all my worn out tools
Another brutal shot of my rhythm und blues
I need to
To draw you close, to joke your hand
And in your shining face I see the promised land
Well baby
Maybe you can share with me the depths of our compability
In the crimes of humanity
This is it, my politics this is it
I love to hate, that's fucking great
This is it, my politics
Out the edge between the living and the dead,
I try to throw you off with a shake of my head.
I try to drag you down and bury you alive,
but when I fall asleep that's when you open your eyes.
You laugh, you cry, you look me in the eye with your hang-dog face,
that's when I put you in your place.
Can you tell me, how will you survive?
You have to be the biggest fool alive.
I lay awake all night but all that I can see are the vicious, clever lies of my mythology.
I'm beating my head up against the wall and on each single,
separate brick there is a picture of you all.
This is it, the end, I'll tell you what I'll do,
I'm going to pick you with a stick und look inside of you.
But when you wander in the dark there is nothing to see.
I'm on a desperate search for reality.
To tell the truth, you can all get screwed
I'd like to give you a kick, you little son of a bitch
Just let me
Let me get my hands around your throat
And I will choke and choke and choke and choke and choke and choke and choke and choke
What is the bitter explanation for the violence of my indignation?
Well, it's as plain as the nose an my face
I am a member of the human race
This is it, my politics this is it
I love to hate, that's fucking great
This is it, my politics
I stand before you, a simple man
A sly dog
A politician
This is it, my politics
It's the holy trinity, Mom and Dad and little me
It's the holy trinity, Mom and Dad, Mom and Dad, Mommy
What you are is what you see
What you are is just a little funny
You're somebody's fantasy, like Mom and Dad, Mom and Dad
There's no sex, only fucking
Janie's growing little tits, Jimmy's learning to repress
All his female tedencies
Like you and me, you and me, baby
There's no out there is no escape, if you want to copulate
You must learn the masterplan
It's—be like I am, be like I am
There's no sex, only fucking
I am man, you said I am
And she's a girl, her hair is curled
We're not the same, it's very strange
We walk in line, we dance in time
No one wants to break the rule cause if you do
The rules will break you
If you use the verb 'to be', you refer to how you pee
And if you choose to sit not stand, Janie you are not a man
There's a door you can get through, the other is not meant for you
Little Dickie, use your eyes, it means no penis need aplly
There's no sex, only fucking
Everyone's got a hole and everyone's got stiff little fingers
You don't have to know
We are you, you are not
We are you, you are not
We crawl down, you jump up
We crawl down, you jump up
You are not you
I know
There's no let up
There's no peace, no rest
Not for the wicked
No rest for the wicked
What are thou, thou art not
What are thou, thou art not
You climb up, you're dragged up
You climb up, you're dragged up
You are not you
I know
There's no let up
There's no peace, no rest
Not for the wicked
No rest for the wicked
Mother, father, sister, brother
Now you know where you belong
Mother, father, sister, brother you are one husband,
Wife, daughter, son now you know where you belong
Husband, wife, daughter, son you are one it's a lie,
We're just good friends
What have you seen, what have you heard?
It's a lie, it's a lie what do you fell,
What do you feel, what do you feel?
Mother, father, grandmother, grandfather
Great grandmother, great grandfather
Great great grandmother
Mother of all motherfuckers,
Mother of all motherfuckers
Protect me, protect me, protect me!
I did not sail the seas or fly on the wind
But I found the jungle and myself within
I found you before I found myself
But to the natives I looked like everyone else
Brown skin under a tropical sun in the Jungle
And then I heard the bass and felt the wind on my face
As it throbbed and rippled from an inland place
I found the sand and then my feet
And I followed the trail of repetetive beats
Into the drakness, in under the trees of the Jungle
The guitraræ¯ cries were like a flickering fire
And I saw the light before I opened my eyes
I would only find what I was looking for
As crawled beneath the brambles on the forest floor
I had been here many times before
Hear the voices cry and see the sparks fly
As before my eyes in the stinging smoke
A streaming beast is at the end of ist rope
At the end of fear, at the end of hope
Round and round, beyonf ist reach
Teh shadows flickered on the circling trees
The naives dance, naked and wild
Stamping their feet, and twirling their knives
No one knows whta I felt in my heart
As I rose to my feet and played my part in the Jungle
The bass is the love that I feel in my heart
The guitar you see is my learing tree
The drums are the sound that you heard from the start
They the are tools of the trade, of the craft and the art
But when will I sail across endless seas?
And what message will fly on the wind to me?
What will is see in the smoke and the sparks?
When , oh when, will I play my part in the Jungle?
Mother, father, sister, brother
Now you know where you belong
Mother, father, sister, brother you are one husband,
Wife, daughter, son now you know where you belong
Husband, wife, daughter, son you are one it's a lie,
We're just good friends
What have you seen, what have you heard?
It's a lie, it's a lie what do you fell,
What do you feel, what do you feel?
Mother, father, grandmother, grandfather
Great grandmother, great grandfather
Great great grandmother
Mother of all motherfuckers,
Mother of all motherfuckers
Protect me, protect me, protect me!
You are not one

Let the bells ring out
Let the bells ring out
The hero is dead and the children are in bed
Let the bells ring out
All around, people in the town, they be dancing in the streets
Young and old, the lame and the whole, they be dancing in the streets
Everybody be moving, everybody get high
You've had your dreams come true
Made him into something new
Now there's no turning back
You've heard the pistol crack
Living is free, free and at ease
You've seen what you can do
More than you ever know
All ways are one to you
There's nothing left to lose
Dig nothing
Piles of bodies lie inside a hole
Dig nothing
You've had your tubes replaced
There's grime smeard on your face
Your hands are stained with grease
For you there is no peace
Living is
Friction, damage, freedom, pleasure
Piles of shit and hidden treasure
Pay the price
Living is free
My roommate is turning into a monster
He just sits and watches T.V.
He doesn't look at me, he's always watching me
He says the free life is best
Why don't you clean up the mess?
There's something wrong with him
All his masks are caving in
He doesn't go out much no more
His clothes are pled neatl on the floor
He hasn't shaved in three weeks
He hasen't even brushed his teath
This is not whta i meant
I just wanted to share the rent
His eyes are closed but he never sleeps
He's breathing, he's breathing deep
He's got something on his mind
He can't seem to unwind
He said,
Don't you fuck nobody else
Don't you fuck nobody else
What's this? I don't have any tits
You can't treat me like this, I don't have any tits
He's sold the car, he's locked the door
He says that he don't care no more
He's drawnn the shade, he's shut the binds
I think that he has lost his mind
I can't believe what i see
He's rising his hand
Against me
Myroommate is turning into a monster
~~~~~~~
You tell me I should not be
All by myself, that's good advice
I'll hum a tune and break the ice
'Cos I'm lonely
Everyone looks good to me
But I'm afraid that I can see
That good intent and honesty
Do not redeem stupidity
When all is said and all is done
You either know or down you go
Into the pit of shallow wit
With all the other hypocrites
You're not bad, you're not good
You're a solid block of wood
You have eyes but cannot see
Why I despise your company
I am lonely
People come, people go
They put on their little shows
See them laugh, see them cry
See them live their little lies
I'm alone with you
And I'm lying too
I'm alone with you
And you're lying too
Oh, we are all liars
And that's all that's true
I'm alone with you
I'm alone with you
I'm lonely
Lonely
Lonely
When wo were young we played among the flowers
And sucked upon the nipples of nur motherstits
But now before us all of nature cowers
Through fear und death we've moulded out relationships
The breeze is blowing lightly through the tree tops
The sun is out, we're basking in the light of day
The birds are eating bugs out of out sore spots
The clouds are drifting os we dream the hours away
But I got restless, felt a little hungry
So I jumped into my car
Did not go far
Found a parking spot
And got out for a walk
Using my eyes, using my ears
I'm walking I'm smelling
I'm walking I'm smelling
Something's cooking
I smell something cooking
Something's ooking
I smell something cooking
It's running, but I'm faster
It's jumping that's what I'm after
There's new life for us to eat
I prey on the young und weak
There's new life fore us to eat
I prey on the young und weak
What's your problem, life's a breeze
Frist you run and then you eat
The pavement抯 bubbling tar along the runway
The purring of our engines drives the birds away
A thousand voices cry in the arena
A thousand voices cry with just one thing to say
When we were young the world was like a vision
The colours und the sounds they look out breath away
But now we watch it all on television
While eating processed meat off of a plastic tray
But I got restless felt a little hungry
So I jumped into my car
Did not go for
Found a parking spot
And jumped out for a walk
Using my eyes, using my ears
I'm walking I'm smelling
I'm walking I'm smelling
Something's cooking
I smell something cooking
Something's cooking
I smell something cooking
It's running, but I'm faster
It's jumping that's what I'm after
There's - life for us to eat
I prey an the young und weak
There's new life for us to out
I prey on the young und weakk
Life is simple, here's the key
First you rest and then you feed
We're Predators
We're Predators you and I
I have no blood on my hands
I have blood on my teeth
Everyone's committing suicide
So why don't you and I
Go jump off a bridge
Together, you and I
We can change our minds
And come back home
For one, last
Well I'm depressed
I'm really out of it
I'm depressed
I can't see my way
I'm depressed
But not depraved
Unless you'd like to, you know
If we could make a choice together
Mature citizens that we are
To do these disgusting things
Alright, ok, forget
It forget it, I don't care
It's only what I read in magazines
It's only that, sexually equal
We should exercise our rights
To do whatever it is we like
Anything
You be my pig
I'll be your king
Well, I'm disgusting
That's what you say
I'm disgusting
That's what you mean
Well, I'm disgusting
But it's not all it seems
I'll be your dog
You be my queen
Well, I'm depressed
I have nothing to say
You've said it all
What's on the tube today?
Well, we've slept late
But nothing's happening
You're as rumple as the bed
Your hair is messed
Your face ain't the best
And it's sunday
There's nothing open
And what about me?
What do I look like?
I avoid the mirrors
Cause I don't want to know
What I've already seen
Pigs and dogs
Not kings and queens
Everyone's committing suicide
So why don't you and I
Go jump off a bridge
Together, you and I
We can change our minds
And come back home
For one, last...
you've spread your wings and learned to fly
you've tried and tried and now you've succeeded
weil, that's too bad, that's too bad, that's too bad
i'm alive, that's too bad, that's too bad
open your eyes, revenge, open your eyes
revenge, open wide
you've fooled them once, you've fooled them twice
they think you're nice but no, you're just clever
that's too bad, that's too bad, that's too bad
my friend, that's too bad, that's too bad
this is the end, revenge, you die, you die
revenge,
you want to know why? you want to know why?
you die? you die? you want to know why?
you want to know why? you die! you die!
that's too bad, that's too bad, that's too bad, i'm alive
that's too bad, that's too bad, i will survive
and the band played some good'ole
rock'n'roll
what i want most in the whole wide world
is a girl just a girl one who will keep me
from losing my mind one who will keep me
from losing my mind and she'll be the best
girl in the whole wide world she'll be the
best girl in the whole wide world
revenge you die! you die! you die!
My mind is buried at the bottom of the sea
My voice is eaten by the crabs
You broke me when you broke the surface
Last, but not hte last
I am at the end of the depths
Wrecked and lost
You call me from the trees
But I fly above the bats and the birds
If I am a number
Or if I am a word
The mice that crawl on me
Know this word
The mice that crawl on me
Know this word
I am the last
You broke me, bu I live
Without end, under stones and crosses
You count your losses, your wounds mend
But I am the end of Oak and Yew
Of God and Death and you
I am the last
Before the surface broke, under the depths
Before the strokes of the lash
And the march to the crosses
Before you named me
Before you brake me
Before the first word and after the last
At the bottom of the sea
The crabs crowl on me
The mice crowl on me
They eat my voice
Take all I have to give
Before you
Before all
I live
Mary, it's time to pray, Mary
(first verse)
=======
I don't like to see you cry
You're alone and I know why
I can free your life from sin
Open up and let me in
Let me, let me, let me, come in
Machine, I'm a good machine
Machine, I'm a good machine
On you I lean, I lean, I lean, I lean, on you I lean
Machine, I'm a good machine
Belive in one another
Depend on one another
Be good to one another
I am the other
I'm a good machine
Machine, I'm a good machine
I love it, believe me, you know it's true
Belive me, I know it, you'll ove it too
I mean it, I see it, I know it's true
I see it, I know it, you'll love it too
When we walk and talk about it
Talk together, I feel fine
When we walk and talk about it
Talk together, I walk in line
When we walk and talk about it
Talk together, I feel fine
When we walk and talk about it
Talk together, I walk in line
I guess I'm alright
Oh, yeh, alright, alright
You know I'm ok
Ok, alright, alright
Oh, yeh, it's alright
Alright alright alright
I'm ok, it's alright, I feel fine, it's ojk, it's alright, in fact it's fine
I'm a big machine
Yes, yeh, yeh
Machine, I'm a good machine
Of thee I sing, I sing, of thee I sing
machine, I'm a good machine
Belive in one another
Depend on one another
Be good to one another
I am the other
I'm a good machine
Yeh, yeh, yeh
I love it, I made it, it's what I do
You know it, you've seen it, it looks like you
Don't you just love it, it{s just like you
I love it, you love it, you know it's true
When we walk...
Look at me and watch yourself
Everyone is someone else
When you speak the echoes chime
The voice is yours but the words are mine
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine
=================
There are no words that can describe
The joy I feel just in being alive
And when I look inside of me I see
Love, faith and fidelity
Within the dark night of the soul
There lies a hidden, warming glow
And if that glow were blue and white
Could you sleep dreamless through the night ?
But if that glow were red and black
Would you want your money back ?
It's hard enough, hard enough
Just to survive, just to be alive
Madness, madness, madness and death
Respect, Humility, Respect
Madness and Death
All you see and all you know
Hangs from a stick before your nose
The bread of life, all that you wish
Is lying at your fingertips
If all you see is what you want
And what you see is what you get
Then cease your searching, low and high
Listen to my whispered lies
Ask for nothing
Close your eyes
It's hard enough, hard enough
Just to survive, just to be alive
SURPRISE !
Madness, madness, madness and death
Respect, Humility, Respect

Real love is scary
You try to hide when it looks for you
You never know what it will do
Not real love
Not real love
Real love is a long stone bed, he said
His face a mask of indifference
And it don't care about me or you
Not real love
Not real love
Real love on a sunny day
Is a crow on a telephone pole
With something to say
And you feel like someone
Has just walked on your grave
That's real love
That's real love
The glory of love
The glory of love
That precious rain
That falls from above
First a gentle murmur
That calls from the heart
And then a great wind
That will blow you apart
That's real love
That's real love
Like a ghost it will pass right through you
A spirit that lives on
When you are through
And there is nothing that you can do
The wind in the trees
The smell of wet leaves
The rumble of a passing truck
A streak of blood
Please forgive me for what I've done to you
And lord forgive me for what I'm going to do
In the name of...
Real love is scary
You try to hide when it looks for you
You never know what it will do
And it don't care about me or you
And there is nothing you can do about
Real love
Anyway, that's what I heard a crow say
But who cares what a crow say anyway?
Especially about something, something
Something so strictly personal
(Real love)
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it? That wind on your face
You can get down on your knees and pray
But nothing that you do or say
Will make it go away
(Real love)
It's like thunder, like lightning
The way you love me
The way you love me
The way you love me
Well, Christ was married on the cross
My father was married to my mother
And I am married to a cigarette butt lying in the gutter
And I am married to a cigarette butt lying in the gutter
Oh, that's too bad, isn't it
Rags and bones, are we finally alone?
White Man, you, you just starting to get the blues
I said, White Man, you, you just starting to get the blues
The blues
Rags and bones, are we finally alone?
The beast has arisen, all sins are forgiven
The beast has arisen, all sins are forgiven
In the belly of the beast I shall be released
In the belly of the beast I shall be released
She rises, Captain! She rises, Captain!
Captain---dive, dive! Captain---dive, dive!
If I could choose to believe or not to believe
You know I would choose not to
If I could choose to believe or not to believe
You know I would choose not to
But I can't choose
Not to
Rags and bones, are we finally alone?
Any old rags and bones?
Who would have thought that I would be
A sailor on the deep blue sea
Red on red
You make me
Not what was or could be
Not below or above
It's you that i love
Red on red
Now take me
Into the fat to fry
Now who, what or why
I'm sick of all these lies
Red on red
No means
Red on red
No means
Red on red
Sound and fury
Unjustified
Words polluted
With ego and pride
But there's a crocodile
Crawling up your spine
Up your spine, up your spine
Crawling up your spine
Keep crawling
Red on red
Are you dead?
Are you blind or just stupid?
Nothing can prop us up
We're burning up
Red on red
Red on red
You kill me
Rip me apart, i'm willing
As long s i'm standing here
There is no fear
Red on red
No means
Red on red
No means
Red on red
Built it up
Then tear it down
The bells are ringing
The prayers are done
Once she lived here
Now she's gone
So, rip it up
And tear it down
But it won't be long
Won't be long
Man, it won't be long
Red on red
You saved me
You burned me, i don't mean maybe
I don't know what you are
But i wear the scars
Like medals
Red on red
Red on red
By no means
No fucking bullshit dreams
I know why i'm here
It's ringing in my ears
Red on red
No means
Red on red
No means
Faced with several choices
All of them wrong
Snap out of it, I tell myself
Stop singing that same old song
The All Clear sounds but the streets are deserted
We sit in shelters with out eyes averted
I searched for your face amoung those who remained
But they were
All the Same
I wanted it all, now I find I'm lost
You screamed that I had sold you out
That there had to he something I could do
I'm just trying to hold on, I said
But when you were gone what could I hold on to?
This world is tangled deceptive and huge
You make your choices, try to find what's true
You got lost, that's what happened to you
But now
I'm lost too
Lost
To this land I was driven, to the land of the misgiven,
To the land of false starts, to the land of missing parts
I wanted it all, now I find I'm lost
Lost
I go to work everyday
Come home and watch the news
What chance did we have, I think
Just us two?
In the Occupied Zone there's nowhere to hide
Missiles with eyes search for all who survive
I couldn't get through at all
Still I called und called und called
