You sold your soul for a lump of coal
She's blacker than the night Didn't think you'd be needing it But you thought But you never know who you might meet On the street where the church bells ring to a different beat Is it joy, is it pain? Is it rustin' in the rain? Do you really think I need it? Is it just plain evil? Heard of a man who had a plan To save the wretched world Nationwide genocide, like one-eyed jacks And suicide queens Look out for if you know what I mean Is it good, is it bad? Is it bitter, is it sad? Is it inside all these people? Is it just plain evil? You've got a lot to learn You've got a lot to change, you've got nothing to lose But a ball and chain Is it good, is it bad?Is it bitter, is it sad? Do you really think I need it? Is it just plain evil? |

The mirror on the wall it tells no lies
And oh I don't like what I see I see a woman there I watch her as she cries And the woman isn't really me But every day I get up, calm down, give up, hang around Look for you, hold me, tender, set me free I need to feel you put your hands around me Day in, day out it's the same old story You're out there on your own Is he worth the price you pay Got you in his chains Will he set you free someday I wish I didn't feel this way I can't get nothing done And all I want to do is go to sleep Though I lie in bed for hours I cannot close my eyes And lonely days turn into lonely weeks But every day I get up, calm down, give up, hang around Look for you, tender, hold me, set me free I need to feel you put your hands around me Day in, day out, it's the same old story You're out there on your own Is he worth the price you pay Got you in his chains Will he set you free someday Every now and then I think things might be all right And I think I see a light beyond the door Just as I approach it disappears again And everything seems darker than before But every day I get up, calm down, give up, hang around Look for you, hold me, tender, set me free I need to feel you put your hands around me Day in, day out, it's the same old story You're out there on your own Is he worth the price you pay Got you in his chains Will he set you free someday |

Well, well, now what the hell has gotten into you
Is it something we can make it through I'll spend the rest of my life trying to figure you out Like a black silhouette in a shadow of doubt Some kinda spectacle that no one can see through But it burns inside, you hide it well You hide it from yourself And you promise that you won't tell Promise that you won't tell, promise that you won't tell Promise that you won't yell, secret no more, secret no more Now I know that something's wrong And I'll find out before too long Only you can break my solitude Don't you tell anyone I told you this We got to die to spread your disease too But it burns inside, you hide it well And you promise that you won't tell Promise that you won't tell Promise that you won't tell Promise that you won't yell Secret no more, secret no more Promise that you won't tell, promise that you won't tell Promise that you won't tell, promise that you won't yell Secret no more, secret no more Secret no more, secret no more |

It's a second hand story no one wants to hear
And it's wet with blood, salted with tears It's black and white and red all over, happens all the time This was something about an artificial heart She lived in a sleepy town trailer home park Where not many people go out after dark Innocent helpless at 17, queen of every loser's wet dream Which brings us to our villain but a mother could love He liked amputation and the Lord above He kidnapped her on her way home from school She lost her mind, he lost his cool She didn't tell him about the artificial heart Then some kid found her head Then an arm and a leg and you know the rest they said The artificial heart it was still beating With a needle and a thread they sewed on her head She's alive and well like she was never dead She doesn't remember the day she didn't die Or how everybody cried She read a story in the paper how she was victimized And you should have seen the look in her eyes Her assailant was acquitted and as she read I swear she laughed off her head |

Somebody's thinking that there might be something wrong
Business is sinking and the crew's been casted off Nobody's bailing, nobody's sailing, but we're watching it from shore Nobody's working and we better work this out If we could see eye to eye, you could see just exactly who is small But I do my job and do it well and go to hell for writing on the wall There'd be enough to go around if I could just get around you I am not down, my hands are empty, and they're open and I need something to do And it makes me wonder who I'm working for 'Cause I think you know just what I'm looking for And it makes me wonder who you're working for How many children are waiting by your door? Is this just a job that I'm working for? You gave me nothing now you're taking it away I should be walkin' and makin' it easy to ignore but I guess I'd better stay And I forgave you for all the people you've done wrong Nobody's working and it's gone on far too long And it makes me wonder who you're working for 'Cause I think you know just what I'm looking for And it makes me wonder who I'm working for How many children are waiting by your door? Is it just a paycheck I'm fighting for? |

Hey what're you doing comin' around my place
I've been cryin', tears are down my face Do this, do that, it's always push, push, push But I sure grow tired of beating 'round the bush Take it to the root Hey what're you saying, calling out my name I ain't got no shame, better find someone else to blame Talking 'round in circles, take it to the point ?? someone else to give support Take it to the root I can't take it, always in my face Hey, don't I know you? I've seen you someplace Back before you know it, back for more abuse Back to where I started from, home and on the loose Take it to the root Take it to the root one time Take it to the root two times Take it to the root three times Take it to the root four times |
