So I Keep Drinking
03:27
|
|||
When you met me, I was drunk
And you thought that I was just a punk
You understood me, loved me, gave up
Guess what I envisioned for us, to you, was too much
Now you’ve left me and my soul left raped
Turned to liquor, beer, Bukowski, an escape
I went to work and slaved the daily grind
Now I just keep on drinking to get you out of my mind
So I keep drinking to get you out of my mind
I drank with Paradise and Caulfield
Written a million lines that you could never steal
Now I hang out with George Killian
If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s you can’t trust a friend
With you, I’d always play the fool
I would do anything to get a laugh out of you
It wasn’t enough, you lust for more than me
Every time I think of you, I’ve just gotta get a drink
So I keep drinking to get you out of my mind
But I’m doing just fine

Dead Alive
02:52
|
|||
Lionel was just a boy
Who fell in love with a register girl
But his mom forbid him to go out with her
While at the zoo spying on them
A Sumatran rat monkey took a bite in
To her flesh and thus she caught the curse
When your hell is here on earth
You know it’s Dead Alive
Dead Alive—a creature’s coming after you
Dead Alive—there ain’t nothing you can do
It’s Dead Alive
Buried your mum but she came back
Nazi scientist cannot stop her attack
There’s greasers in the graveyard and it’s getting worse
A priest shows up to kick ass for the lord
But he’s no match for this zombie horde
Later he’s on the kitchen table nailing the dead nurse
When your hell is here on earth
You know it’s Dead Alive
Dead Alive—a creature’s coming after you
Dead Alive—there ain’t nothing you can do
It’s Dead Alive
Uncle tries to move in on the wealth
But enters into a living hell
Zombie baby’s going crazy and death is being served
Got somebody’s blood on your face
Lawnmower flying through air guts are all over the place
This time mommy’s gonna get what she deserves
When your hell is here on earth
You know it’s Dead Alive
Dead Alive—a creature’s coming after you
Dead Alive—there ain’t nothing you can do
It’s Dead Alive

You're A Punk
00:58
|
|||
You’re a punk
You’re a punk
You’re a fucking punk
And I don’t care about you, you stupid cunt
All you ever think about is yourself
So you better not be coming ‘round where I hang out
And I know everything is gonna be just fine in the end
I don’t need people around like you that say they’re my friends
And I hope for your sake that I don’t see you tomorrow
You’re a punk
You’re a punk
You’re a little runt
So go ahead and take her cause she was a slut
You better not be thinking everything is ok
Cause I’ll still knock your fucking block back into outer
space
And I know everything is gonna be just fine in the end
I don’t need people around like you that say they’re my friends
And I hope for your sake that I don’t see you tomorrow

Do You Ever
01:44
|
|||
do you ever stare out your window
and wonder how you can live without me
do you ever hide your face in your pillow
so you can’t hear yourself crying
or look into your mirror
only to see a person changed
then smoke a million cigarettes
and think of all your love from yesterday
how you lied to me
saying things you didn’t mean
you broke my heart over and over again
why . . . did your love for me go bad
why . . . didn’t you come crawling back
how could you just turn your back on me
like we shared nothing
how could you lie again
you said you’d love me ‘til the end
do you ever hear a song
that makes you think of times we shared
do you ever hold someone else
and remember my fingers running through your hair
or look into your hand
only to wish my hand was there
then smoke a million cigarettes
and think of all your love you left
only to bring tears like rain
until you’re sitting soaking wet
you can’t find any shelter to hide your pain

I Hate You
01:52
|
|||
Reason has escaped me
And logic has no use
The thought of you on top of him
Is enough to light the fuse
Fueled by my loneliness
And driven by my rage
I feed my insecurities
Locking my own cage
I hate your fucking guts
So don’t be coming around
If I see your face
I’ll be knocking you down
I wanna desecrate you
So run motherfucker run
I’ll do anything that I can
To spoil all your fun
Don’t even try to talk to me
To beg for my forgiveness
For your disease I am the cure
And I’m gonna kill your sickness
I hate your fucking guts
So don’t be coming around
If I see your face
I’ll be knocking you down
There’s nothing you can do
Justice will be served
And I’ll make for fucking sure
Your screams are never heard
I HATE YOU

Pull Out My Hair
01:45
|
|||
It’s 5am, I’m frustrated, and I can’t get to sleep
Got this pent up action just waiting to happen, no sense in
counting sheep
Bitch, bitch, bitch is all I hear, but I don’t wanna fight
I just want us to be happy tonight
You make me pull out my hair
And somehow, I just don’t see how this is fair
Well I’ve smoked every cigarette and I’m looking like a goon
I know your job makes you stress out, but it affects me and you
Kiss, kiss, kiss is all I need to make everything right
I just want us to be happy tonight
You make me pull out my hair
And somehow, I just don’t see how this is fair

Sunday Morning
03:23
|
|||
do you ever question your morality
in the greater scheme of things
do you search yourself wondering what it all means
or is there nothing no hope no dream
do you pray to figures on T.V.
cause television is a crutch just like your religion
Jerry Falwell you’re a piece of shit
digging way too deep I think you’re a fucking creep
they say Jesus saves send us money he’ll let you exist
fucking evangelist
dancing onstage put yourself upon a pedestal
you’re the false idol
transferring beliefs onto the small screen
now you’ve got them hooked on static electricity
Billy Graham you’re saving everyone
I don’t need your love baby I’ve just begun
Sunday morning
remote controller for your mind
Sunday morning
get on your knees and pray to the almighty
T.V.

Record Collection
02:23
|
|||
I saw you boppin’ at the show all alone
Pink Converse on your feet and a Ramones T-shirt on
Well I don’t usually do this, but I’d like to take you home
I’ve got something you’ve gotta see, you wanna come up to my room
Come on, sit on my bed, I promise I won’t bite
Spin records all day long and hold each other, yeah it’s alright
Well I’ve got Leave Home with Carbona Not Glue
Even though it’s out of print, I wanna show it to you
Do you wanna see my record collection
I’ve got End Of The Century, yeah it’s so cool
And if you’re super sweet, I’ll show you my tattoo
If you get too cold, I’ll let you wear my leather jacket
And when I walk you home, I’ll kiss you at the end of the night
So when you’re lying in bed, you’ll remember every turn
If you come back another day, I’ll show you Road To Ruin
Do you wanna see my record collection

The Other Day
03:29
|
|||
Last night I sat and talked for hours to an old picture I had of you.
I closed my eyes and held my pillow tight, but it was
feathers instead of you.
Apologies aside, did you really try to let things happen or were you laughing inside?
We sat at Brisco Park, I was talking to the dark. Were you smiling or were you crying after all?
When you cheated on me.
Saw you the other day,
in some other girl’s face,
when she was smiling,
having a good time and
I heard you in her laugh,
like when I thought that we could last,
so I just walked away,
like you did on that day.
Do you remember being on the beach, laying around with nothing to do?
Every time we’d get out of the water, I’d pull the seaweed out of your suit.
Walking along the sand, talking about our plans,
when we got old, if we could be together.
You ended it too quick, ‘cause you wanted that guy’s dick.
I couldn’t leave my place, tears kept rolling down my stupid face.
When you cheated on me.
Saw you the other day,
in some other girl’s face,
when she was smiling,
having a good time and
I heard you in her laugh,
like when I thought that we could last,
so I just walked away,
like you did on that day,
you said “I wanna be your friend”.

My Brand New Nothing
03:24
|
|||
I don’t wanna stay in this light of grey
I wanna be free red white and green
I wanna be seen well-spoken and heard
considered a nerd please don’t touch me
how is it they see just another freak
‘cause I don’t want it to be the story of the week
so tear that paper in two try to start a new
you’re getting ink all over my brand new nothing
microphone in hand I’m no more than a man
I haven’t any plan but I’m taking a stand
there’s always something you can do red white and blue
put on that old suit ‘cause it suits you nicely
think it’s your last chance gotta gun stuffed in your pants
think that you’re a man motherfucker you better guess again
you’re just a pawn in the game one that I’m about to
rape
you’re shooting holes all through my brand new nothing
if we can sing this song together
ain’t nobody gonna drag us down
and if we sing this song forever
then we’re always gonna be around
and if we play a little better
you know we’re gonna make a better sound
and if we keep playing together
then we’re always gonna be around
one last chance to make it right

Zombie High
03:30
|
|||
Lace up your Cons and grab your guns
We’re going zombie killing
How are we gonna get out of this place
There’s no escape from the living dead
Throw away your books, they’re of no use to you now
Flesh-eating man is after you, you’ve gotta find some way to get out
Everybody’s gonna have to die at Zombie High
Gotta kill your teacher to survive at Zombie High
Zombie High
Hell’s all filled up
The dead have no choice, but to walk the street
There ain’t nowhere safe to hide
When a zombie’s looking for something to eat
There’s a bite out of you, witnessing your rotting flesh
There’s nothing you can do, now you’re turning into one of them
Everybody’s gonna have to die at Zombie High
Gotta eat your principal to stay alive at Zombie High
Zombie High
Ready to die
You’re gonna die tonight
And I’m gonna eat your brains

Billy was a guy that never learned his lesson
He’d go out and get drunk every night
He didn’t give a fuck about his own transgression
And so he went away for awhile
Tried and tried to make him understand
But he wouldn’t give it any chance
He lied and lied to his friends
And still they tried to help him anyway
But he could never stay
Away from his own pain
So one night he decided to take his life away
Billy was a guy that felt like he was fenced in
He’d climb and climb but it was always too high
He kept things bottled up he pent in his aggression
He’s beginning at the end of the line
******************************************
I believe the government is trying to hide something from us—that's not right
How can anyone believe that there is nothing out there at all—up in the sky
Well I believe what I don't see and I don't care if you think I'm insane
I believe in little green men
And they're taking me with them
Flying saucers by the stars and waking up and seeing new scratches—you don't remember them
People having memories of being probed by aliens at night—that ain't no lie
Well I believe what I don't see and I don't care if you think I'm insane
I believe in little green men
And they're taking me with them
Have you ever looked up and thought that there might be life beyond our own—solar system
To think that we are all alone and that all of this is our own to me—makes you fucking ignorant
Well I believe what I don't see and I don't care if you think I'm insane
I believe in little green men
And they're taking me with them

Honest
03:56
|
|||
honest
so profound that I can’t stand it
sure I’ve taken things for granted
I don’t ask ‘cause I demand it
earning everything I wanted
and that’s gotta count for something
at least that I can say I’m
honest
stranded
got a plane but I can’t land it
turbulence has got me branded
all my life my mind’s expanded
so colorful ‘cause I’ve been painted
when I saw myself I nearly fainted
cause I've chosen to be
honest
being true to myself
striving hard for my goal
reaching just for a dream
swallowing all my pride
everything’s kept inside
with my mission at hand
I remain . . .
honest
so in fact that I can’t stand it
maybe I should just condemn it
haven’t seen the positive yet
to know someone that I haven’t met
sometimes I think I should forget it
but at least that I've been
honest
better days
or will I see myself walking away from me
giving up on everything
I could have grown
I should have known better than to try and walk alone
but that’s how I feel comfortable
when I’m down will someone pick me up
off the ground or will I have to do it
by myself doing what I do well
sitting all alone on my own like I do now
I’ve seen things through a brighter shade of grey
doing better every day but I still can’t find my blue
skies and sun well I know I’m not the only one
but I really don’t give a shit it’s enough that I can admit
that I’m doing fine
