Witless, humorous conversatoin
Has filled me up like an old gas station I'm wallowing in a pool of gasoline Self appointed sherrif of a popular ghostown I'm open to bribes but I've arrested no one I'm galloping to meet my bride to be She'll woo the saloon then sing us both to sleep But... I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I've run out of time Drop dead gorgeous art history drop out Thought of her fatherought to pay her to clear the whole shop up She carries her cameras in hand to complete the look Screenplay players co-writing screenplay Cotton candy fot the eyess but cotton balls for the brain He thinks to himself, "Thank God the bar's not too high" Just look at his face and then you'll see why But... I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I've run out of time Hollywood waiter with a chip on his shoulder Only break has been his back and yet he's just getting older He's washing his clothes in a sink of self pity Retired ball playerguest hosting a talk show Earned a trophy and a wife and twice he's won the lotto I'm running aways but don't know who from or why Just look in his eyes and then you'll see why I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I've run out of time I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I'm running out of time I've run out of time |

It's not enough to hear
me say you've won You only wanted me for having fun But now I think you've gone and had your way And left me with a pile of bills to pay I can't even rewind the tape machine To listen to your drunken reasoning So here it is - your final lullaby So goodnight, goodnight You're embarrassing me You're embarrassing you So goodnight, goodnight Walk away from the door Walk away from my life So Goodnight I've given up on social niceties I threw 'em out when I threw out your keys Along with all your records I can't stand You never even listen to any one of them You're never gonna drag me out again With all the people that were never ever even your friends So here it is - your final lullaby So goodnight, goodnight You're embarrassing me You're embarrassing you So goodnight, goodnight Walk away from the door Walk away from my life A little bit of rain I'd say is fair But when it starts to thunder they all stare This isn't goodnight, this is goodbye... So goodnight, goodnight You're embarrassing me You're embarrassing you So goodnight, goodnight. Walk away from the door Walk away from my life So goodnight, goodnight You're embarrassing me You're embarrassing you So goodnight, goodnight Walk away from the door Walk away from my life So goodnight - |

He was in the habit of
taking things for granted Granted there wasn't much for him to take And the only thing constant was the constant reminder he'd never change Tight fisted with his compliments it didn't seem to bother him that talk is even cheaper told in bulk And the only thing constant was the constant reminder He'd never change And so she yelled at him You owe me an IOU owe me an IOU You owe me an IOU Don't think that I'll forget You owe me an IOU owe me an IOU You owe me an IOU Don't think that I'll forget I know what I should get this time She was in the habit of reapplying makeup Makeup eaten up by crocodile tears And the only thing constant was the constant reminder she'd never change Overtly individual covertly traditional She couldn't seem to make up her mind And the only thing constant was the constant reminder she'd never change And so he yelled at her You owe me an IOU owe me an IOU You owe me an IOU Don't think that I'll forget You owe me an IOU owe me an IOU You owe me an IOU Don't think that I'll forget I know what I should get this time Oh Is it real I don't know But I'll act as if it is What's our deal I don't know But I'll act as if it is what I think that it is If it is then this might just work They were in the habit of taking things for granted Granted they never quite knew what they had And the only thing constant was the constant reminder they'd never change And so they yelled out loud You owe me an IOU owe me an IOU You owe me an IOU Don't think that I'll forget You owe me an IOU owe me an IOU You owe me an IOU Don't think that I'll forget I know what I should get Yeah I know what I should get this time |

Watch your children around the abandoned well
Don´t ask me to tell if they slipped and fell I´m just a salesman with my suitcase in hand And the perfect plan that should pull me out Another day, another night, another year Another smile, another lie, another tear This better not be all I got I never thought I´d end up here Jingle jangle that´s the sound of coins Spent on useless toys made for useless boys I´m just a salesman with my suitcase in hand There´s a piece of land that I got my eye on Another day, another night, another year Another smile, another lie, another tear This better not be all I got I never thought I´d end up here Friday night I´ll raise my glass and say "Tomorrow things will change! I can´t afford to wait." But by Monday morning my alarm clock knows How this story goes and the ending´s the same as the start Another day, another night, another year Another smile, another lie, another tear This better not be all I got I never thought I´d end up here Another day, another night, another year Another smile, another lie, another tear This better not be all I got I never thought I´d end up here Watch your children around the abandoned well Don´t ask me to tell if they slipped and fell I´m just a salesman with my suitcase in hand And the perfect plan that I´m working on |

I was picked up and then dropped off in a culture counter-clockwise turned around
Dug a hole in Southern Carolina - took me straight to China safe and sound Donated my map to the lost and found While working for a common cause I only got a kamikaze state of mind This self defeating meeting of the minds is eating what was once so hard to find But right then the clouds parted in the sky The horizon took us all a little by surprise Watch the sky And as the howling winds subsided, the locals ran out, all waving their hands and singing: Welcome to the island of the honest man Do what you want - there is no need to impress us Welcome to the island of the honest man We don't believe in what the big people tell us Wait here - stay here I was picked up and then dropped off in a culture counter-clockwise turned around Rolled a pair of dice in Paris that got me to paradise all safe and sound. Stole my temper back from the lost and found No longer needed to be seated on a sinking ship just waiting there to drown Jump off now - jump off now And as they lead us to their village, a thousand voices all started to sing out loud: Welcome to the island of the honest man Do what you want - there is no need to impress us Welcome to the island of the honest man We don't believe in what the big people tell us Wait here - stay here From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, they all sing Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go And all the people on the island they already know why they sing Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, they all sing Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go And all the people on the island they all want to show why they sing Why they sing, why they sing, why they're singing Welcome to the island of the honest man Do what you want - there is no need to impress us Welcome to the island of the honest man We don't believe in what the big people tell us Welcome to the island of the honest man This is the island of the honest man Welcome to the island of the honest man This is the island of the honest man Wait here - stay here I was picked up and then dropped off in a culture counter-clockwise turned around |

HOT HOT HEAT LYRICS
"Middle Of Nowhere" Don't get mad if I'm laughing Blame the caffeine for all the 5 am phone calls I haven't slept a single night in over a month And not even once did you start to make sense to me Well maybe I'm a little bit slow, or just consistently inconsistent She said, "Unpredictability's my responsibility, baby." But you're waiting at the door where everybody's hanging out just like they hung out before You didn't have to do it but you did it to say That you didn't have to do it but you would anyway To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere They chewed me up and then they spit me out And I'm not supposed to let it bother me But maybe I'm a little bit weak - I let my frailty take the wheel She said, "Maybe there's a bit of me waiting for a bit of you. baby." But you're waiting at the door where everybody's hanging out just like they hung out before You didn't have to do it but you did it to say That you didn't have to do it but you would anyway To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere But you're waiting at the door where everybody's hanging out just like they hung out before You didn't have to do it but you did it to say That you didn't have to do it but you would anyway To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere To give you something to go on when I go off back to the middle of nowhere To give you something to go on - to go on back to the middle of nowhere |

Wash your dirty mouth
Your dirty mouth Watch your little mouth Wash your dirty mouth Your dirty mouth Watch your little mouth I don't wanna wait anymore Wake up cinnamon They can't get in and that's them at the door, Cuz checkout time is noon and pretty soon it's a quarter to four I don't wanna wait anymore Wash your dirty mouth Your dirty mouth Watch your little mouth cuz you taste like you're already gone Small town girls and boys make too much noise so I keep to myself But acting tough is rough - enough is enough - I feel like hell Tied up in London, you came undone with a two handed tug With pieces of a phone, thrown at the door, spread out on the rug I don't wanna wait anymore Wash your dirty mouth Your dirty mouth Watch your little mouth cuz you taste like you're already gone Wash your dirty mouth Your dirty mouth Watch your little mouth cuz you taste like you're already gone I gotta say I cannot wait Not even one more night or day Why don't you fly and get away And end this awful holiday Come and play, come and stay, and end this awful holiday I gotta say I cannot wait Not even one more night or day Why don't you fly and get away and end this awful holiday Wash your dirty mouth Your dirty mouth Watch your little mouth cuz you taste like you're already gone Wash your dirty mouth Your dirty mouth Watch your little mouth cuz you taste like you're already gone |

I found a soldier in a box
A souvenir that someone lost at such a cost The cemetery gates were closed Only the humming birds would smell the flowers brought for ghosts There's not much fame or fortune For the fortuneteller selling fortunes to the broke Soldier in a box... he's mighty lonely Soldier in a box... he's nothing special He's serenading himself cuz nobody's there He's celebrating himself cuz nobody cares He's serenading himself "No need to say this letter better get to where he lays his head!" she said Seventeen months of wondering why she forgot to send her thoughts was all he got instead Her soldier in a box... he's mighty lonely Soldier in a box... he's nothing special He's serenading himself cuz nobody's there He's celebrating himself cuz nobody's there He's serenading himself He's serenading himself cuz nobody's there He's celebrating himself cuz nobody cares He's serenading himself cuz nobody's there He's celebrating himself cuz nobody cares He's serenading himself cuz nobody's there He's celebrating himself cuz nobody cares |

Shame on you for getting wet
Now who will dry your eyes? Shame on you for getting wet How can you act surprised? Running with scissors wasn't smart I tripped and cut open your heart I didn't mean to, but I seem to Have pushed us back to the start In the wake of my mistake I felt your voice starting to shake The timing couldn't have been worse For me to be this far away Shame on you for getting wet Now who will dry your eyes? Shame on you for getting wet How can you act surprised? Traveled the world under your spell Cast on me in a motel It turned my rain clouds in to rainbows But I couldn't even tell As days apart turned in to weeks My memory played hide and seek While I was playing show n' tell I took your trust and set it free Shame on you for getting wet Now who will dry your eyes? Shame on you for getting wet How can you act surprised? Shame on you for getting wet Now who will dry your eyes? Shame on you for getting wet Now who will dry your eyes? Shame on you for getting wet How can you act surprised? Running with scissors wasn't smart I tripped and cut open your heart I didn't mean to, but I seem to Have pushed us back to the start In the wake of my mistake I felt your voice starting to shake The timing couldn't have been worse For me to be this far away |

Blame me for the elevator
I know you will oh know you will It's not me who's the operator but you're going down down down You'll be sorry when you're singing all alone But don't take me up I'll just fall down once again Don't take me up I'll just fall down Wake me when you're educated I know you will oh know you will You'll be self medicated you're spinning round You'll be there but no one will even know your name But don't take me up I'll just fall down once again Don't take me up I'll only find my way back down Don't take me up It's true I've dabbled at times with confident lines I was half of a man nearly half of the time In an innocent way I thought it could stay with us both on the ground With us fooling around Let's just stay on the ground Let's stay fooling around on the ground Don't take me up I'll just fall down like I knew that I would Don't take me up I'll only find my way back down Don't take me up I'll just fall down I'll just fall down I'll just fall down |
