jump into the world, spring full grown
let your subjects know you're sown
spread your seed like you know you would
born on mars, born for doing good
gentle man, son of prior born
not of earth, not of hate and scorn
you got a message of love and peace?
you've got the wrong land, you're in a bile-filled release
love
peace
humanity
merge into the whole, society
ever better than the ones you see
try hard just to make them try
balls of jelly, full of endless lies
play tricks if it gets their attention
everyone loves war, can you breed dissension?
lost among the mongers of war
can you tell me what it's all for?
love
peace
humanity

Friend of Mine
04:19
|
|

johnny was a friend of mine
used to hang out all the time
thought that it would never end
we'd always be the best of friends, yeah yeah
johnny was a simple man
never one for making plans
taking living as it comes
if you never start you're never done, oh yeah yeah
the river of time goes by, it flows faster everyday
like the wings of an eagle fly, watch the past just die away
johnny was a friend of mine
used to hang out all the time
and then he went and got a wife
and built himself a brand new life
we said we'd never break the bond
no matter how much time rolled on
but years they started passing fast
we saw each other less and less, yeah yeah yeah
the river of time goes by, it flows faster everyday
like the wings of an eagle fly, watch the past just die away
now johnny is a memory
of how a buddy used to be
remember when we still were friends?
the times we said would never end? yeah yeah...
now no more his guitar and mine
no more beer and weed and wine
no more brothers to the end
it really sucks to lose my very best friend, yeah yeah...

Slapback
02:31
|
|||
you've gotten back in everybody's sack and everybody's talkin' but me
cry your eyes dry and ask the world 'why?' and find yourself a reason to be
all fucked up in the bed of a truck with your legs waving to the stars
crankin' out brats and livin' with rats and prowling all the mexican bars
till you find time to rectify your mind, and stay away from lines
that only lead to britney mentality
now i'm just here, with middle shelf beer, and i'm plugging my life away
a stupid fucking job, too wed to be a slob, and i'm still waiting for my day
till it seems i'm stuck in everybody's muck and everybody's truckin' but me
when i was gettin' high, the world was racin' by, now there's nobody sober as me
now there's time to simplify my mind, and everything is fine
and making money's just not my cup of tea
now wrinkled on the run, and never mind the guns, cause the students are the murdering kind
no no no no chance of backing, you're friends are lost and latin, and you know you're deaf, dumb and blind
so with the end in sight, will you drive on through the night? and give yourself that final reprieve?
or will you let the goose bake, with dirt on your plate, and drift into the final disease?
when you've got time to rest and cure your mind
and know you're doing fine, at least as good as me

The Leavesdropper
04:21
|
|||
each leaf cries and paints the sky above
and i see love, and i feel love
and i see that each leaf gently falls from tree above
and i see love, and i feel love
and it can't be helped anymore, my love
oh oh oh, oh my love
i can follow each of them and know
from whence they come, like a trail of crumbs
i can tell the oak, la rousse, lucette now drifts away
into blood, maple tree above
and she can't be helped anymore, my love
oh oh oh, oh my love
light, from its casement flown, you know you're not alone
dark, painful arrow shards, never truly are apart
oh oh oh
oh oh oh, oh my love

Life
04:46
|
|||
life is hard, i won't tell you no lies
get your own thing, brother, solid before you die
money makes, and money takes
sell your soul for money, and pray for even breaks
pray for tomorrow, baby, even while today dies
cry for another life for which you never even tried
pounds and pounds of solid ground all bury your next meal
saviors and congressmen are collecting your next bill
life is fucking hard, i won't tell you no lies
caught up in fights and headaches, argue until you die
money makes, and money takes, if i haven't said it before
cross the roads of your own life, and bury your dirt outside your door
pray for tomorrow, baby, even while today dies
cry for another life for which you never even tried
pounds and pounds of solid ground all bury your next meal
saviors and congressmen are collecting your next bill
life is just a game, and i haven't got a clue
get your own thing brother, i got nothing for you
i've got enough on my plate, can't even hope to see the end
bric-a-brac, all you brass tats, and down the whole lot again
pray for tomorrow, baby, even while today dies
cry for another life for which you never even tried
pounds and pounds of solid ground all bury your next meal
saviors and congressmen are collecting your next bill

Face to Brick Wall
02:43
|
|
||
what's the point in talking?
you know it's all been said before
the liars keep on lying
and one will step right through the next door
and fuck things up some more
like a nasty little whore
what's the point in caring?
you know it all comes tumbling down
the givers keep on sharing
but the takers step right up to the crown
and send our kids to war
to subjugate the world
break free from stupid past beliefs
don't be afraid to bite the hand that feeds
let nothing be enough for me
always question the majority
don't believe everything you read
our losses line the pockets of thieves
people follow fools that lead
don't run over the cliff of destiny
what's the use in trying?
you know it's all been done before
the politicians scheming
with their feet on the backs of the poor
if you're not with us your wrong
'cause the right is with the strong

No You & I
05:28
|
|
||
you, you shone like the sun
and i knew, yes i knew that you could be the one
i've only seen you across a crowded room
i never dreamed you would disappear so soon
your eyes met mine, did you see in me
all of the things i saw in you...
but oh no...
i should probably let it go
into my memory you will flow
and i'll just crawl back in my hole... all alone
you, you rest upon a cloud
i, i always talk to loud
and i'll scare you away just like all the rest
there'll never be a day, your halo resting on my chest
there's just no way, it's all just pride
i'll never have you here by my side...
never hold your soft warm hand in mine
never feel your tenderness sublime
never cross the empty years of time...
you, you gave to me a dream
and i, i don't know what it means
to see a life full of happiness
imagination, a surcease from distress
did your eyes lie? were you just looking 'round?
and was i just there, wanting to be found?
and now there's only darkness all around...
for me there's only darkness all around...

Žemaitija

i'm ridin' that midnight train
i got nothing to lose, i got nothing to gain
now i'm flat on my back and i'm coming home
i got fat bloody fingers and a heart of stone, yeah
we'll round the corner, and you'll see that train a-coming
just around the bend, and you'll feel your future end
engineer's giving up the track
gonna take us through the desert on a camel's back
peel off the junkie monkeys now we're on our way
and i've been singing this song since yesterday
we'll round the corner, and you'll see that train a-coming
just around the bend, and you'll feel your future end
i'm not myself tonight, i'm a fraud-based hobby short-term delight
tried on five thousand souls, i ain't found one yet that'll keep me whole
i'm ridin' that midnight train
i got nothing to lose, i got nothing to gain
now i'm flat on my back and i'm coming home
i got fat bloody fingers and a heart of stone, yeah
we'll round the corner, and you'll see that train a-coming
just around the bend, and you'll feel your future end
