I take Lisa to the movies - she's my date
But I know Theresa's in there, I can't wait
I take Theresa in the back seat all night long
It's Theresa in my backseat - then she's gone

We drive down by the river, I'm getting bored
And Theresa's getting anxious, she feels ignored
It's Theresa in the back seat all night long
It's Theresa in my backseat - then she's gone

Then the eyes roll back, yeah, here comes Theresa
Now there's a girl I can get a piece of
Come morning Lisa will feel like hell
But who can she tell?

I take her back to her place, we shake hands,
Then I make a date with Lisa - I've got plans
It's Theresa in the back seat all night long
It's Theresa in my backseat - then she's gone

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39

He was my friend, but what the fuck
I slapped him down cuz it was fun
I stole his girl, I knocked her up
I had my fun

I'm allergic to myself

So, she kept the kid, went on the dole
I took her checks, I spent it all
Went in my lungs and up my nose
She loves me so

I'm allergic to myself

Now the kid's a foul mouthed little brat
Just like his dad - a fucking rat
He hates his mom, he thinks I'm great
What can I say?

I'm allergic to myself

It cracks me up, it makes me scratch.
He's still my friend, she's always back.
I'm allergic to myself

Oh, what is it like?
Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby

Oh, what is it like
To have a big old tube in you?
Oh, what is it like
To have it shoot inside of you?
Oh, what is it like
To have a baby?
oh baby, oh baby
Let me know

Oh, what is it like
When your insides start to peel?
Oh, what is it like
When they bubble up like molten steel
Oh, what is it like?
Oh what is it, what is it like?

Oh, what is it like
To have my sperms up in there duking it?
Oh, how can I know
When I can't even look in it
I want to be good
I only want to do what is right

Oh, what is it like
To have a big old tube in you?
Oh, what is it like
To have it shoot inside of you?
Oh, what is it like
To have a baby?
oh baby, oh baby
Let me know

Seems the votes are all in on my zen Stalin
Now the tanks are rolling
You've finally figured out that it's not all in your head
You got a plan, you wanna be free
If you think I'm gonna stop you then you don't know me
Cuz I ain't got the strength, I ain't got the muscle
So if you're gonna go then go man, go
I've shown you what I've got, I told you what I know
I'm blown

I hit the ol' sack with my thirteen pack
My head's a whorehouse
Got nothing in my pockets, I can't get out of bed
I just want a hug, I just want a beer
You wanna ride but I don't wanna steer
Cuz I ain't got the strength, I ain't got the muscle
So if you're gonna go then go man, go
You're a little fast and I'm a little slow
And I'm blown

You're looking awesome you're one curve blossom
You want to talk some
But I'm trying to watch the tube and you're getting in the way
You still have your looks you still have your friends
I got a bad poem, I guess that's where it ends
Cuz I ain't got the strength, I ain't got the muscle
So if you're gonna go then go man, go
I'm doing all my tricks, I'm putting on a show
But I'm blown

Seems the votes are all in on my zen Stalin
Now the tanks are rolling
You've finally figured out that it's not all in your head
You got a plan, you wanna be free
If you think I'm gonna stop you then you don't know me
Cuz I ain't got the strength, I ain't got the muscle
So if you're gonna go then go man, go
I've shown you what I've got, I told you what I know
I'm blown

Bum in the alley!

There's a bum in the alley
Looking for a favor
He sees your sister
He's gonna rape her

There's a bum in the alley

There's a bum in the alley
Looking for some wine
If you don't give him yours
I'll have to give him mine

There's a bum in the alley

I was paralyzed, sick of my own brain.
For months, every time I drove over that bridge, I'd feel a tug.
My eyelids would get heavy, and I'd smile
And long for the sleep of all cowards.
It's not that I wasn't loved, far from it.
I simply lacked the ability to feel it.
Sad, isn't it?
So I made the big climb up to the top of that bridge.
It was a beautiful day, of course
Perfect sleeping weather.
As I contemplated the deep, I saw that final door.
There was a light coming from underneath it,
So I knew that my maker was home.
As I prepared to lean forward and reach for the knob,
I saw something move.
There was a cockroach by my right foot; a big one.
What was a cockroach doing on top of a bridge?
I'm no entomologist. Another one of my many faults.
Instinctively, I lifted my foot to step on it, but I pulled up short.
He couldn't help that he was a roach.
He was just doing what a roach does.
I put my finger down there and he climbed up on to it,
And crawled slowly up to the middle of my bare arm.
We sat that way for about twenty minutes.
Me, thinking thoughts and feeling feelings,
Him wiggling his antennae.
Then suddenly... suddenly he spread his wings and flew.
Up and up, higher and higher until he was gone.
Then I started... I started to cry.
I cried and I cried, until I heard a voice from below.
"Hey, you fuckin' idiot! What're ya doin' up there?"
Then I told him... I told him... I told him I don't wanna go.
I don't wanna go. I wanna.. I wanna.. I wanna rise! Rise! Rise!

Tyrannosaurus in the muck
Gone extinct, don't give a fuck

Camouflage monkey
Hide behind the trees
Camouflage monkey
Don't you bite the hand that feeds

Shoot the commies
Burn the chinks
He knows where to stick his dick

Camouflage monkey
Hide behind the trees
Camouflage monkey
Don't you bite the hand that feeds

You sit in your chair
You just sit and stare
It's whispering in your ear
You want out of here
But it ain't time

You can't blank your mind
You're just not that kind
You want to crawl out of your skin
But you were never in
You can't hide

It bursts out of the ground
It's crackling all around
It's towering overhead
It's not alive, not dead
It can't die

You stand up, down you go
But the ground don't want to know
You're spread out on the grass
You were meant to last
It ain't time

They say I'm quite sick
But that's not quite it
I heard all that bullshit
Got sick of it
Fuck the fucking grapevine
I've only taken what's mine
That's not stealing, that's not stealing

I know all about their plans to snatch me
I know all about the benefits
There's no room to run when they've got you
You tell them from me...

They got the big call
Down the big hall
Heroes installed
Out in my hall
Now I can hear them out there
Counting on their fingers
One and one and one and one and...
All damn day, all God damned day

I've read all about their plans to watch me
And I've heard all about the box
There's no peace and quiet when they've got you
Please tell them from me...

They say I'm quite sick
But that's not quite it
I heard that bullshit
Got sick of it
Well, fuck the fucking grapevine
I've only taken what's mine
That's not stealing, that ain't stealing
That's called fun
Yeah, that's called fun

I've heard tell about their plans to keep me
And I know all about their love
There's no place to die when they've got you
You tell them for me...

Give it up, you're never gonna make it
Don't even try
You think it doesn't matter
Cuz you're a nice guy

Load up the barrel
Roll up the apparel
Yeah come up and make bombs away
Your McAlienation is contamination
It's contamination to me

Talk it up
It's a piece of fucking genius
But it don't apply

Your pointy shoed science is just an appliance
For all you to say "no" to me
But it's all one plantation
It's contamination
It's a contamination to me

Pat my back
First you call me "buddy"
Then you attack
But you're still bored
With a pocket full of nothing
That's just the facts


Load up the barrel
Roll up the apparel
Yeah come up and make bombs away
Your McAlienation is contamination
It's contamination to me

Hide your eyes
Pretend it doesn't happen
It might go away
Laugh it up
You can call 'em hicks and rednecks
But you're gonna pay

Your pointy shoed science is just an appliance
For all you to say "no" to me
But it's all one plantation
It's contamination
It's a contamination to me

Every night I grab life by the neck
Drag it up ten flights of steps
And throw it naked upon the bed
What's it all about
It's my island
My friends all said that it's a dead end
But they got it all wrong, it's like a loose friend
I had some before, now I want it all

It's all just at my beckon call
All that walks and half that crawls
This is it and this is all
What's it all about
It's my island
I had it before I was a boyfriend
I had it before all the money was spent
I had some before, now I want it all

Sometimes I get the gift of gab
Then everything is up for grabs
Mr. Yahweh gets the tab
What's it all about
It's my island
This world ain't got a thing to show me
Ain't got a quarter of what it owes me
I had some before, now I want it all

I get up with the morning light
Grab the oyster, take a bite
And send it back if it ain't right
What's it all about
It's my island
This whole world is here to serve me
In actual fact it don't deserve me
I had some before, now I want it all

I do what I do, I can't explain it
You did it too, you helped me make it
So spread 'em out, we all go sometime

There ain't no reason for them to accept it
Don't sit there looking all rejected
Lay down, lay down
Lay real still, until we're found

Nothing to do passive reception
Stayed in the dark, still got detected
So whip it out, we all go sometime

You know we both did exactly what they said
Wriggling, we got caught by the head
We came, we watched, we tried it
But we got caught

It's okay, we were wrong, but we tried
We lived it up, lived it down, now we lie
They'll forget how we look, how we sound
Close your mouth, get in line - we're duty-bound

I do what I do, I can't explain it
You did it too, you helped me make it
Lay down, lay down
Lay real still

We make the same moves, the same sounds
Why ever would we change it around?
We're doing the obvious again

It's nice to watch you take it in
You know repetition ain't a sin when
We're doing the obvious again

They ask, "Why do you have to be so loud?"
"Why do you always need a crowd?"
Cuz we're doing the obvious again

The couple down below
I didn't really know
They didn't get along
They'd grab what they could throw
They would start right after light
It would go through half the night
Why so, I didn't know
But that was half the show

One day I'm sitting home
She was out front in just her robe
I thought I caught her eye
I wasn't sure
The day was going slow
So I went down to say "hello"
She said she could talk a while but then I'd have to go

She had to walk the streets
So she could smoke and drink and eat
If she didn't have the dough
She didn't have a home

The drinks began to flow
She moved over right up close
Then we heard the phone
She said, "Shit, you gotta go, he's coming home"

That night it woke me up
I saw the cherries popping off
Somebody'd called a squad
I had to know
They said he came out of nowhere
And he'd found that I'd been there
He spread her face around the place and then he run
Now she's done

It was down below
They were down below

So you no longer want me
You want to shove this horn up my ass
You want to slap these tattoos right off me
Well you can't, I'm a thirty four-sixer

Girl, please don't leave me, we're better than this
Oh it breaks my heart so, that whenever you see me
Whenever you see me your face makes a fist

Look, I love you, I'm singing about you
Sit still and I'll show you some class
I'll play something nice we can grind to
It's gonna start slow and go fast
It's a homeopathic elixir

You say you can't date me, I already have a girl
Darling, please don't hate me, after all what is two
What is two in a five billion world?

I'm going to fuck a compadre
I'm going to rassle a mountain
Then I will beat up an ocean
And wipe my ass with the sun
I'll do it all for El Shiksa!

Oh I want to (?), and we both know who
Yes, we both know that, we both know
We both know that the missing letter is you

Over all the bodies, over all the years
You were always there, I was always here
We've brushed off debris, now everything is clear

Now you are here, the doors are locked
Eureka, funday!

When we are alone, when we are alone
I am not a pet, you are not a whore
And I'm not really bad, and you're not really cold

The doors are locked
Eureka, funday!

Everybody's watching something
Everybody's chasing something
Everybody's grabbing something
Everybody's wasting something

What's the use of talking, I'm finished again
Clean yourself up, I'm finished again
You heard what I said

What's the use of talking, I'm finished again
Everyone already knows what I am
Everywhere I go everything looks the same
And everyone says that I'm finished again

I have no more message to send
I have nothing left to defend
I can't keep my mouth shut and pretend
Cause I'm all done, I'm finished again

My luck's all gone and so are my friends
And your love just feels heavy like lead
It just reminds me of what I was back when
Back before I was finished again

I'm spread around with you, with it - I can't take me
Give me an inch, Give me an inch - come save me
Get it out and spread it out - it's time
Good cop

We're on the tracks, we're on a cliff on a rock-pile
You blast you're light on top of me, I'm a sundial
I'm tired of all the phony "freaks" and Sunday creeps
Good cop

The door is locked, we can't avoid the celebration
They've got the books, they've got their monkey nation
It's bullshit - it's air and spit - come to me
Good cop

What's there to get? The money's spent - don't defend me
The ride was long, but the circles drawn - we're a memory
It never works for fucking jerks - we're paper
Good cop

It never works we're fucking jerks, we're paid for
Good cop

I'm spread around with you, with it - I can't take me
Give me an inch, Give me an inch - come save me
It's bullshit - it's air and spit - come to me
Good cop

Once I was an embryo
'Til I got the old heave ho
Got let go

When I was a little runt
I pulled some cunning stunts
Stunning ones

They'd hit me
But I wouldn't cry
I'd just wink my third eye

Now I'm a different kind of ape
The kind you assholes hate
Have some bait

I heard ol' Neil put 'er down
But we don't need him 'round anyhow

I woke up today, this morning
I'm bloody, I'm beaten
I find that I have been robbed
They took my shoes, my wallet,
I'm still drunk, I say "fuck it"
I go to my job

Then my boss, he fires me for no good reason
No reason at all
He says, "if you come back I will call a policeman"
I'm hitting the wall

So I call home, say "dad, I'm robbed,
I'm fired, I need money, I need money bad!"
He says, "That's bullshit! You're lying! I know you!
Need money? Too fuckin' bad!"

He says "son, you gotta get out there and fight, man!
Compete and stand tall"
I say "dad, that's the trouble with your whole damn white man,
I'm hitting the wall"

So I'm walking, there's kids behind me
They're laughing, they throw rocks at me
I start running, they chase me
They're coming, they're gaining
They're gonna get me

Now there's no answer to this I can think up
I'm taking a fall
So I duck into a bar, sit back and drink up
I'm hitting the wall

Then later three big guys,
They poke me, they wake me
They say, "boy you'd better pay"
I pull out my pockets
They don't laugh, they punch me
They kick me, I'm out the hard way

I'm laying by a dumpster drunk and beaten
With nothing at all
People point at me and say I'm sickening
I'm hitting the wall

My head's a parliament, I've got a whole debate going
They poke, they prod, they're picking on me
I've got noise upstairs, I can't participate
I'm gonna call the pigs on my own party

Am I a schizoid or a schizophrenic?
When I ask my beam
I'm both

I've got whistles, bells
I've got a stock car race going
What I thought's a stick is an automatic

When they gave out brains
Yeah, I got screwed
There's two kinds of fool
I'm Both

My right brain shaves, my left wears a dress
I'm a cop, a snitch, a dick, and asshole
But the girl's approve, my friends all think it's great
You see, I'm not nuts, I'm complicated

I shit outside
I sleep in stores
I'm between floors
I'm both

My heads an empty lot
It's easy to find a spot
Any God damned thing can park there

It's twice the work
And half the fun
I'm formed, I'm done
I'm both

They paint the walls
And spray for bugs
But it's in my blood
I'm both

The doc says, "You! Who are you talking to? Hey!"
I said, "Can't you see that I'm busy?"
He shakes his head, and then he checks his watch again
He yawns and writes out my prescription

I take three of these
And six of those
But when I run low
I'm both

I'm gone
I've lost sight
I don't care
I can't try
Cuz I'm missing

I can't stay
I've lost touch
I'm washed up
I'm not right
Cuz I'm missing

I'm lost
I can't hear
I can't stay
I can't come
Cuz I'm missing

I had a dream, then I woke up
I had a dream that we broke up
I rolled over to tell you
You're awake and we spoke up

You said "I have something to tell you
You know that I want you to trust me
And I swear that I'll always
Always make all your dreams come true"

Love is like a lions mouth
I put my head inside it
I put my heart beside it
Nobody forced me to do it

It was a thrilling feeling
To feel the lion's breath
Somehow I never noticed
That it kind of smelled like death

I had a dream, then I woke up
I had a dream that we broke up
I rolled over to tell you
You're awake and we spoke up

You said "I have something to tell you
You know that I want you to trust me
And I swear that I'll always
Always make all your dreams come true"

Love is like a lions mouth
It was a thrilling feeling
Nobody forced me to do it
Nobody forced me to do it

If you can lay eyes on it, it's mine
If you can walk upon it, it's mine
If you can come in here and put your hands on something, remember
If there's something here to swallow, it's mine
If there's something 'round to fallow, it's mine
If you can hold it up and put it in your pocket
Remember, it's mine

If there's something here you can blow up, it's mine
If something here does make it go up, it's mine
If you wanna come 'round here and help yourself to something, remember
if you can latch onto it, it's mine
If you can eat or screw it, it's mine
If you're some commie scum who wants to share it all
Remember, it's mine

If there's something here appealing, it's mine
If there's something here worth stealing, it's mine
If you want to walk in here and put your hands on something, remember
If you can lay eyes on it, it's mine
If you can walk upon it, it's mine
If it's got continents and clouds and lots of water
Remember, it's mine

I feel blind cause you're out there
There's a crime happening somewhere
I'm doing time and it ain't fair
Hope you're crying, but you don't care

You said I wasn't enough
So I went and called your bluff
Now I'm outside standing in line

Well that's okay, I'm alright
I'm just fine
I got prospects, I got pride
Don't need your sex
Of course I'd come back if I could
But I've been filed under "dead wood"

You said I promised the sky
But just ate and drank and got high
Well it weren't exactly a lie
But I fucked up and that's why I'm Mr. Cancelled

Your dad hopped off your mommy
He grabbed his clothes and he was gone
She always saw him in your face
You had to run or duck
Got by on beginners luck

The boys hopped off of you
And mumbled their drunk excuses
You just smiled and waved goodbye
They never did understand
Pointed at you and ran

We met the same old way
We drank up and hit the hay
You tried to see him in my face
You were stuck on replay
We were not alike that way

You ain't been treated right
You say people are dogs that bite
They kill what they can't keep
You don't want company
Well, I'm not company

You were stuck on replay
We were not alike that way

I dropped by - you weren't alone
I asked why - you just shrugged and yawned
And said It's time for me to leave
You don't want company
Well, I'm not company

It seems it's almost eight o'clock
It's time to visit my friend Bob
Pretty soon they'll lock him in
In this hick town that is the law
But I run, I make it there on time
It's four dollars ninety, keep the dime
I smuggle him home in the dark
Bob's my best friend - that's no lie

My Bob, he always looks surprised
My Bob makes me one of the guys
My Bob, one friend who never lies
My Bob, he can no longer see
My Bob lost face to technology
My Bob, he opens up to me
My Bob, he's smarter than he looks
My Bob gave better than he took
My Bob, we kiss until I puke

My Bob is always cold to me
But it is not because he's mean
I always take him how he comes
I have to cuz he's cheap
Sir Bobs and I'm almost there
My friends, they all want me to share
They curse me as I throw him out
But Bob's all mine, so I don't care

My Bob he's sitting right on top
My Bob, can't see him 'til he pops
My Bob, he's always in my thoughts
My Bob, he takes the easy route
My Bob, he slips into my mouth
My Bob, he always knocks me out
My Bob, he always makes me think
My Bob looks better when I drink
My Bob, he is the missing link

My Bob, he's hard to keep lit
My Bob, he's making me talk shit
My Bob, everything he does is tits
My Bob, he always understands
My Bob, he makes me ejaculate
My Bob, he makes me handsome, yeah
My Bob, he never stays too late
My Bob, he's filling, he tastes great

All my friends, they have me surrounded
All the same, I'm not coming out

Though they try they cannot defeat me
Can't defeat me, can't beat me
But I'm impressed

They all know that they're not invited
I won't leave while I'm breathing
It's my house

Mom and Dad when you read about this
Just remember I warned them
And it's my fault

She got a break - who wants it?
Then she lost it all - o' tragedy
What can I say? I'd use it
She wants to shoot
She's heading home

If it's gotta go - she wants it
She'll buy it up - you like that
But she's seen a ghost - she's had it
She shot out the light - it had to go

You want it all - go get it
She'll give it up - it's all junk
Pull up your pants - don't do that
She wants to shoot - who wants it?
She wants a shoot 'em up
She wants to shoot 'em all
Who wants a shot?
She's heading home

You want it all - go get it
She'll give it up - it's all junk
What can I say? I'd use it
She wants to shoot - who wants it?
She wants a shoot 'em up
She wants to shoot 'em all
Who wants a shot?
She's heading home

You long
You're longing for the past
First time went by too fast
Well you're wrong
You're wrong about those times

You always take what's left behind
You never seem to mind
You always take what's left behind
But you're never mine

Still got the clothes, still got the hair
Got the records
Could it all be for nothing
Couldn't be, no way

You're home
You're waiting on the line
You think you're made of time
Well he's gone
He's never coming back
Except to hit the sack

You always take what's left behind
You never seem to mind
You always take what's left behind
But you're never mine

He doesn't want her
He doesn't mean it
No, how could he?
After what he said last night
Couldn't be, no way

You're on
You're always on your guard
You always try too hard
I knock, you never let me in
I won't be back again

You always take what's left behind
You never seem to mind
You always take what's left behind
But you're never mine

Won't you please come back to me
Back to eastern Tennessee
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now

Throw your shit back in the truck
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now

Won't you please come back with me
Down to eastern Tennessee
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now

You thought it out, you looked it up
You tried to see what your place was
Heard them talk, watched them watch
Found that you weren't related

You were tracked, you were found
You were fooled and you were baited
But you had to go, you had to look
You had to ask what their name was

You always stay, you're always stuck
You never see the equation
You're one of these, you're one of them
You're one of those kind of strangers

When I drink, I ain't asking
My conscience gets drowned
I move in and harass it
I make it my own
She says unto me:
Move over, leave me alone
I don't care what you've done
This thing's mono mono
It's a monarchy - ask me

Well, I drool pretty flowers
Pretend I don't mean no harm
Soon she's in my powers
I extend my arm
Then she spoke unto me:
Shut up and lay down on the floor
Don't move, don't talk no more
This thing's mono mono
It's a monarchy - agreed

I don't know where I get off
Why I can't play fair
Then she cuts my head off
Rolls it right down the stairs
Then she says to me:
Shove off and leave me alone
It's too late, I can't help you now
This thing's mono mono
It's a monarchy - agreed

Then she says unto me:
Move over, leave me alone
I don't care what you've done
This thing's mono mono
It's a monarchy - ask me

So watch where you snuggle
Don't do what I've done
Or you'll end up your own uncle
A skunk all over town
Then she says unto me:
Shut up and lay down on the floor
Don't move, don't talk no more
This thing's mono mono
It's a monarchy

You want your revenge
You want blood and guts
Someone took what's not his

Well that's homo, but
That ain't sapien
Leave dumb dying to kids

I'm a scientist
I'm a modern man
I like my blood where it is

So I have no heart
I'm a chicken shit
Is that what you're trying to tell me?

Hey, you don't want to do it
That ain't your style
It's survival of the fittest
You're talking wild

Fuck that sacked up scene
You don't have that gene
You want to go for a ride

When your ears get hot
Whether right or not
I've always been by your side

Now you've evolved a mouth
You evolved a gun
But I'm concerned for your mind

This ain't no nature show
Fuck me if I won't go
Is that what you're trying to tell me?

Hey, you don't want to do it
That ain't your style
It's survival of the fittest
You're talking wild

Come here! Hey you!
I'll tell you my sexy pee story, one time:
I was walking home that night
I heard her voice, she said...

So I went up to her house, scratched on the brown door
She let me in
It was dark, I saw her eyes
I felt a cold wind blow

She said, "Sit your ass down"
"We'll make us some weather - do it now!"
She squats over me, lifts up her dress
Then she goes like this...

Now I told you my sexy pee story, you can go!

Yo girl I love it when you make my asshole bleed
That's when I get the shakes inside me

I'm shaking from your big bone
I'm shaking in my colon
I'm shaking in my back door
I'm shaking all over

Yo girl I love it when you bend me over and do me free
That's when I get the shakes inside me

I'm shaking from your big bone
I'm shaking in my colon
I'm shaking in my back door
I'm shaking all over

Yo girl I love it when you make my asshole bleed
That's when I get the shakes inside me

I'm shaking from your big bone
I'm shaking in my colon
I'm shaking in my back door
I'm shaking all over

My old friend likes to talk
It don't respect the clock
Into my home it creeps
To wreck me in my sleep
It climbs, oh it climbs, it climbs
All over me
It climbs, oh it climbs, yes it climbs
It climbs, the cold black vine
It climbs on me

It leaves me all undone
It does it just for fun
Its roots break up my bones
It won't leave me alone
It climbs, oh it climbs, it climbs
All over me
It climbs, oh it climbs, yes it climbs
It climbs, the cold black vine

It cuts me right in half
It does it just for laughs
It's got me in it's claws
It's my one true applause
It climbs, oh it climbs, it climbs
All over me
It climbs, oh it climbs, yes it climbs
It climbs, the cold black vine
It climbs on me

Another ride - you got another place
He's the one - yeah, he's the mercy case
Another face - you're getting in the car
All the world for one stinking bar
You're a blank stare, a closed book, a red light
You're sugar torch

She's alone - just like when she came in
She was yours - she could be yours again
Close your eyes and she's all over you
No, you made it up - just like you always do
She's a black smear, a flat line, a pack of lies
She's sugar torch

You see your chance - you're slipping out the door
You burned him down - like he burned you before
The streets are wide - it's good to breathe the air
You've had enough - so why should you care
You're a blank stare, a closed book, a pack of lies
You're sugar torch

Today I saw my parents killed on TV
But it makes no difference to me
That's what I think, it's terrifique

Now I'm all decked out in my father's best
And the dog's looking good in my mother's dress
That's what I think, it's terrifique

People came by until I locked up the gate
They look so sad, but I think it's great
That's what I think, it's terrifique

I don't wanna do it
But I need the money
I can't keep a job
Cuz I'm too fucking stupid
So I'm in the alley
And I'm through the window
Yeah, this one is easy
I see there's nobody around

Well, how did this happen?
The whole place is empty
There ain't nothing in there
I hear the alarm
Then I see the camera
Then I see the spotlight
And I know that I've put my foot in the bucket again

Yes, he was my best friend
A long time and way back
And he looks like shit so
I invite him over
But the next day he's back
And he's got his duffel
Then he's sleeping over
The next thing I know he's moved in

So I come home from working
He's got ten people in there
I can't thrown them out
Cuz they won't listen
And the windows busted
And the couch cushion's smoking
Someone is bleeding
My foot's in the bucket again

There's a red river raging in the back of my throat
It fills me with love and fills me with hope
A new day is dawning on this family of mine
Gonna color the kids and carpet the wife
It's raining purdy flowers up and down my street
It sets me a stinkin' and smells like heat

It's the woman inside

One night down on highway eight
He's driving full of hate
He's got a gun, he wants to mate

Her thumb was up
He hits the gravel, pulls over and picks her up
The ride is on
They're both along for the ride

She's had some, she wants more
She's free but she's nobody's whore
She's got a knife, it's been used before

She was one the case
You should've seen the look on his face
The ride is on
They're both along for the ride

He drives her down to Crooked Lake
He moves in, it's getting late
"Slow down kid this ain't a race"

Then they collide
Two sacks of shit slapping in a mudslide
The ride is on
They're both along for the ride

A few minutes later and they're through
She's nervous, he's nervous too
It's time to do what they came to do

He goes for his gun
But she's too fast, it's over before it's begun
The ride is on
They were both along

Those uptown suckers
They're all my pals
They pinch my bags
And they pitch my gal
They drink my beer
Then call me a fag
They are tough guys
Yeah, they a wags

Those uptown suckers
Got smiling hands
They steal my T.V.
Then cheer my band
They spend my money
And I am glad
They're here to make history
That's the plan

Those uptown suckers
They're taking turns
They light things up
Just to see what burns
They know what's what
Yeah they're just the right blend
They dig their own graves
And hop right in

Those uptown suckers, they hop right in

He sits alone
In the park
Until after dark
He sits there rocking back and forth
He rocks alone
While he talks
Talk's to himself
He's got a story that he likes to tell alone
While he drinks, gets warm
He might stink a little
But he stinks alone
He's got a right
Cuz he walks alone
It's hard now

Then he stands
He does a dance
A little jig
He's spinning all around
He spins alone
While he shakes
Takes a swig
He stares into the sun
He stares alone
Don't wanna fight
Don't wanna kiss
Cuz what he has to do
He has to do alone
Cuz he's mad
He's pissed
He walks alone
It's a hard row he hoes

He comes from the north
Up in the woods
It's understood
He rode a bottle to city
Rode alone
Blank trip, bad shit
Some passing car is wondering
How he got alone
Was it the law?
Was it a chick?
The answers sitting up inside his head alone
Up in his dome
Bone globe
He walks alone

Red socks, plaid pants, stripped shirt
The cops don't like his little dance
"Are you alone?"
"Where do you live?"
"What did you drink?"
"We're gonna throw you in the clink, Walks Alone"
Then Walks pukes
They grab his arms
But he's quicker with his dukes
He stands alone
Cuz he's the chief
He's a king
He walks alone

Then he stands
He does a dance
A little jig
He's spinning all around
He spins alone
While he shakes
Takes a swig
He stares into the sun
He stares alone
Don't wanna fight
Don't wanna kiss
Cuz what he has to do
He has to do alone
Cuz he's mad
He's pissed
He walks alone
It's a hard row he hoes

It's a witch hunt outside
I wish I was one

I sold you what you needed
You couldn't do without it
Now you don't want to know me
Don't want to talk about it

But you owe, you owe me
You know, you know you owe me
You'll never change
How could you change?

I know what I latched onto
And I know how it tore you
Just come downtown to see me
You know I'm always right there for you

Cuz you owe, you owe me
You know, you know you owe me
You'll never break
You're starting to break

I saw you and him together
I saw how he looks at you
I saw you walk away
Does he know what's eating at you?

You owe, you owe me
You know, you know you owe me
You'll never change
How could you change?
