LONG DAY
Mine is a lonely one,
I forgot to have fun,
standing under the street light
Ever so nervously,
people lookin' down on me,
telling me it's all right
If it were up to me I'd tear down this whole city,
what's all this sh*t here for?
I give you my heart,
but you just say I make you feel like a whore
All this trouble just to die,
all this trouble's only temporary,
it's temporary, temporary
Took away his power but he hides a tiny flower in the
corner of his jail cell
Never been outside he just can't hide,
he'd just assume be in hell
Get off the f*cking telephone,
why'd you hate to be alone,
paranoid of death and love
Ever so patiently we sit upon our sinking ship waiting
for the black dove
All this trouble just to die,
all this trouble's only temporary,
it's temporary, temporary
Sad that I could make it,
glad that I could fake,
sorry but I got to go
I ain't afraid of cryin',
ain't afraid of dyin'.
ain't afraid of what I don't know
MONEY TALKS
Money talks these days and everybody listens
We're whipping out our wallets trying to but what we're
missing
Money screams out "I need a slave"
I'm just trying to find some worker to dig my grave
Everybody's listening, everybody's listening, all those
eyes are glistening
I need more, a little more, in a little while
I say those???
Machines?
I'm just trying to find somebody to pay my bail
Money screams is says "My soul's for sale"
Everybody's listening, everybody's listening,
all those eyes are glistening
I need a maid to pick up my mess,
help me in the morning, help me get dressed
I'll pay you when I get paid, I'll pay you when I get
paid
Money talks these days, money talks these days
What you gonna do when the criminal says "Your money
or your life"?
(Not used?)
I need more, I'm bored, shine my shoes, wax my floor
Mew father of our powerful land of the free
I ain't doing nothing, I'll just jire someone to do it
for me
No matter how small George gets he'll still talk louder
than you
Dollars shrieking "Ha, ha, ha jokes's on you"
End everybody's listening, all those eyes are glistening
Rich bored, blind, and lone, better buy me a wife
I'm saving up everything to buy me a knife
VOODOO DOLL
I'm hung up on a wire so thin,
tearing out what's been trapped in
My puppet strings, been pulled too tight
I can see the real me's going to be a bloody fight
I'm your Voodoo doll don't you hear my call
Trying so hard to forget,
got my bottles, got my pills, got my TV set
I'm imprisoned by my passion, i;m a slave to my trade
How can you be so possessed by the profit that's been
made
I live for love where love's insane,
I need to numb to ease the pain
When the end begins again, needles,
needles, I'm sticking them in
I'm your Voodoo doll, heed my call
I'm strung out on pretty, pretty girls,
I forgot about the rest of the world
Pots and pans and good free sex my wife she is the best
If I get bored of her I'll have a family and get into
incest
I live for love where love's insane,
I need to numb to ease the pain
When the end begins again, needles, needles,
I'm sticking them in
Think your thoughts, confirm your petty doubts,
The spell is cast in broken glass your time is running
out
You're just a prisoner, sweet prisoner,
you're just imprisoned by your own devices
Come on out and bleed some blood and solve this f*cking
crisis
I live for love where love's insane,
I need to numb to ease the pain
When the end begins again, needles, needles, I'm sticking
them in
Voodoo doll, don't you hear my call
The big old world doesn't seem so f*cked up when I'm f*cked
up too
Voodoo doll, don't you hear my call
STRANGER
I said "Hey brown girl
I seen tears through the window of the junk shop downtown"
Selling trinkets from your far off homeland,
did the Promise land let you down?
I said "hey young boy
I notice that you ain't afraid to walk next to me"
"Old man, you look like you're dying,
is that all you want is a quarter from me?"
Sometimes I feel like a stranger, I feel like a stranger
I'm just another face in a faceless crowd,
I'm just another king in a headless crown
I'm so alone. Y'know I live here in this city,
but this place it just ain't nobody's home
Now how many times do I got to tell you?
There's no such thing as a man made world
Now how many times do I got to tell you?
There's no such thing as a man-tamed girl
Sometimes I feel like stranger, I feel like a stranger
I want to buy some flowers for my mother, if I only had
a chance
You see, I got a happy family, but that's oh so far away
You see, I've got it all here inside me,
but I just can't seem to get it out
But I know with a little imagination
we can work this whole goddamn thing out
Oh don't make me feel so strange, I feel like a stranger

SICK OF THAT SONG
I'm sick of that song about how you lost your lover
Sick of that song about how you hate your mother
Sick of that song laced with useless solutions
I'm sick of that song about how you look at life
Sick of that song about how you beat your wife
Sick of that song about sha na blah blah
I'm sick of that song about sex and drugs and rock
Sick of that song about how you love your cock
Sick of that song about your bitchin' bad luck
Sick of that song about all those women you f*ck
I'm sick of that song
RELIGIAVISION
Nail myself way up high and I'm gonna die for you
The mother offers up the child to the preaching of channel
two
The empires rise and the babies cry,
when is the lesson to be learned
And all I hear is the commercials and now the crosses
are gonna burn
Now I ain't gonna be the cure to wash away your sins
Why so the children have to pay for the poor planning
that you did
No matter how loud you scream and cry you're gonna be
sentenced to suffer
You married your life and you married you wife
and now you're gonna have to learn to love her
But can you love her?
I like to watch religious TV,
what you get is not what you see.
Religiovision
Save me my dear goddamned Lord,
won't you please take me hand
Lead me to your sweet salvation in McDonald's land
I was born a wild beautiful baby but you tried to tell
me what to be
Can you love your children knowing you must set them free

WALKING
The sun's creeping up and stomping on my dreams
Works all right, party's fine, but sleeping is my scene
The traffic inside your head is tearing you apart
Stick your fingers down my throat and grab on to my heart
And I'm walking a little closer
Gonna rise up, take you away,
Sunday's just another day
Her eyes shine like oceans, her skin is like the earth
Suck the life out of her, you better take her for what
she's worth
No free ride, this bus is going charter
So get up off you ass and try a little harder, try a little
harder
Walkin' a little closer
BROKEN GLASS
Long distance information, ring me 608
Laughing at the other end
get me my prescription, come and walk my dog
please get me anything
You can't seal fate with a kick
You should know it doesn't work that way
As for your lofty aspirations
You couldn't give them all away (throw away)
Those precious things that juist don't last (throw away)
Everybody's been cut like broken glass
Long distance information sounds like broken glass
Just how long is all of this really gonna last
Get someone I used to know
In another place of time
Please please me
You've been places I'll never go
Begged the questions I'll never know
You've had so many arms around you
This time you've hit an all-time low
So many things just don't last
So many things like broken glass

HAPPY
When I'm with my friends my troubles end
I'm one of the boys, so self employed
When we're together, could last forever
And I'm almost there
I'm away from the boss, at least for awhile
I'm away from the girls that cramp my style
I'm away from the jerks, I'm away from the works
And I'm almost there, I'm almost there
And it's happy time, happy, happy time
It's happy time, happy time, happy time
Got a happy head, so happy, happy time
I wish I could be this happy all the time
I'll take one of those, and four of those
And more of those, and more of those
I'm away from the jerks, I'm away from the works
And I'm almost there, I'm almost there
BLACK
AND BLUE
Protect and serve, slice my nerve
Gotta make sure everybody's gonna get what they deserve
Make my plea, I'm down on my knees
Street cowboy with a badge that says can do what you please
Do what you please, do what you please, do what you please
Rape me, take me, shine your lights so I can't see
Holsters, guns and uniform just don't impress
Blood stained streets, he still looks neat
Somebody's cryin' for help and he's breaking up my party
Please stop breathing down my neck
Took away something that's mine, I want you to give it
back
You gotta give it back, now give it back
Walk across my face with your shiny shoes
Bow down to the badge and colors black and blue
It's a blue night, he rides tonight, a show of strength,
a polished fight
Take me home, cuz I'm not alone, I'm not alone
The squads breakin' down, but you misjudged power
Get your handcuffs ready, cuz we're coming in numbers
