Watch this picture blow
It makes you wonder Bless this broken low It takes time to explain to you That underneath your skin is mother dear And if you paint your face again you'll disappear How you gonna feel If superman and sonic youth are fairy tales? Its time to face the truth You'll throw your life away As a woman dressed as baby jane Like a phantom of the american mother And it's here again And it's here like a phantom of the american mother All that you're concealing are the things that are good in you And you do And you're still abandoning the news Now there's a sinking look in your eyes Like black holes in the sky And every time you moved I realized Everything in you was hypnotized How you gonna feel If superman and sonic youth are fairy tales? Its time to face the truth You walked the hall of fame A woman dressed as baby jane Like a phantom of the american mother It's here again And it's here again like a phantom of the american mother So here it is, you needed proof There's no rock n' roll parade for you Its time to face the truth Like a phantom of the american mother It's here again Like a phantom of the american mother |

Don't you think that it's about now
That you cooled your operations And be generous somehow Don't you think the sarcasm's a little hard to stomach The cynicism's boring And how do you feel How do you feel How do you feel Here comes the fat controller with his boots off getting colder I've got no confidence of where he's been We can make him sing, sing, sing Don't you wish the hounds would all agree The animals are restless And there's still no guarantee Feeding time is over now the zoo will soon be closing And the temperature is freezing How do you feel How do you feel Here comes the fat controller with his boots off getting colder I've got no confidence of where he's been We can make him sing, sing, sing Step outside your crazy tree It's shaking canopy because you're alive Drag your bad news home Slip inside your soul You know, you know you're alive Sooner than later all will be revealed You'll be feeling okay And how do you feel Oh, you know How do you feel How do you feel How do you feel |

someone said it's easy
and as I sit here with my cup staring at it as if I'm some crazy poet when I'm not, I'm just a rock n' roll Joe with tales of woe and tears and fears it's only love that stops you from walking out the door tears fly somewhere close to remorse and sometimes its easy to all my friends I love I still don't find it easy to all my friends I love goodbye goodbye goodbye I've arrived Sally likes it sideways Sally oh Sally don't ever change and please don't think me scary cos I'm not, I'm just a rock n' roll Joe with tales of woe and tears and fears its only love that stops you from walking out the door and tears fly somewhere close to remorse but sometimes it's easy to all my friends I love now I find this easy to all my friends I love I love I love goodbye goodbye goodbye I finally arrived and somewhere close to here goodbye |

here come the good times
I have some good times you know bring on the good times I have some good times you know all we knew was happiness all we knew and all we witnessed it's only there for dreaming it's only there for dreaming I won't sentimentalize the bonus loss of appetite and skinniness that followed the new taste of open lips the last hope in trembling hips and you swallow for dreaming, for dreaming I still can touch the ceiling with the feeling that we swallowed for dreaming, for dreaming I still can touch the screaming heights I'm pleading, can I follow you home bring on the good times bring on the good times once more cos we love the good times on the other side of your green door it's only there for dreaming dreaming, dreaming I knew you'd find your way home but you know I loved you for dreaming, for dreaming for dreaming, for dreaming I still can touch the ceiling with the feeling that we swallowed for dreaming, for dreaming I still can touch the screaming heights I'm pleading, can I follow you home |
