Wake up in the morning with a head like ‘what ya done?’ This used to be the life but I don’t need another one. Good luck cuttin’ nothin’, carrying on, you wear them gowns. So how come I feel so lonely when you’re up getting down? So I play along when I hear that favourite song I’m gonna be the one who gets it right. You better know when you’re swingin’ round the room Look’s like magic’s solely yours tonight But I don’t feel like dancin’ When the old Joanna plays My heart could take a chance But my two feet can’t find a way You think that I could muster up a little soft, shoe gentle sway But I don’t feel like dancin’ No sir, no dancin’ today. Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ Even if i find nothin' better to do Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ I can't break it down when I’m not in the mood? Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ Rather be home with no one if I can't get down with you Cities come and cities go just like the old empires When all you do is change your clothes and call that versatile. You got so many colours make a blind man so confused. Then why can’t I keep up when you’re the only thing I lose? So I’ll just pretend that I know which way to bend And I’m gonna tell the whole world that you’re mine. Just please understand, when I see you clap your hands If you stick around I’m sure that you’ll be fine. But I don’t feel like dancin’ When the old Joanna plays My heart could take a chance But my two feet can’t find a way You think that I could muster up a little soft, shoe gentle sway But I don’t feel like dancin’ No sir, no dancin’ today. Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ Even if i find nothin' better to do Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ I can't break it down when I’m not in the mood? Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ Rather be home with no one if I can't get down with you You can’t make me dance around But your two-step makes my chest pound. Just lay me down as you blow it away into the shimmer light. But I don’t feel like dancin’ When the old Joanna plays My heart could take a chance But my two feet can’t find a way You think that I could muster up a little soft, shoe gentle sway But I don’t feel like dancin’ No sir, no dancin’ today. Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ Even if i find nothin' better to do Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ I can't break it down when I’m not in the mood? Don’t feel like dancin’, dancin’ Rather be home with no one if I can't get down with you |

This town was built on muddy stilts By the lunatic parade It rains like Revelations Gonna wash these freaks away Some girls wanna hold your hand And some girls like to pray Well my girl takes her drinks With dust and rusty razor blades As I lie between these covers I wanna tell her that I love it When she chokes me in the Backseat of her riverboat 'cause Chourus She's my man And we got all the balls we need When you taste that pavement You're amazed She smells your sympathy So bye bye ladies May the best queen hold the crown For the most bush sold on the levee My my, how word gets around She strangles for a good time And she kills my self-control She's my man, don't be too sad sonny 'Cause she'll never be your woman no more Someday soon, this dank lagoon's Gonna sink right into hell They'll hide you from Big Ida At the Sho' Enough Hotel The Ladies of the evening's just A tombstone in your bed Well my girl eats a wounded preacher 'tween two loaves of bread I know she's up to something But how can I run when she's just Keel-hauled twenty-one to nothing I'll stay next to the steel coal oven 'cause She's my man And we got all the balls we need When you taste that pavement You're amazed She smells your sympathy So bye bye ladies May the best queen hold the crown For the most bush sold on the levee My my, how word gets around She strangles for a good time And she kills my self-control She's my man, don't be too sad sonny 'Cause she'll never be your woman no more All you need's just a fist of a tear-stained bunny When the good ship comes to town Who said loves a bitch'll sit next to me honey Because this old boat's gonna run aground I don't want to be the burden Or your jealous bastard I don't wanna be the Tarzan of your next epic disaster She's my man And we got all the balls we need When you taste that pavement You're amazed She smells your sympathy So bye bye ladies May the best queen hold the crown For the most bush sold on the levee My my, how word gets around She strangles for a good time And she kills my self-control She's my man, don't be too sad sonny 'Cause she'll never be your woman no more She's my man, can't you feel her comin' She's my man, she's gonna keep you runnin' She's my man, she's gonna teach you something She's me, she's my man |

It's not easy having yourself a good time Greasing up those bets and betters Watching out they don't four letter Fuck and kiss you both at the same time Smells like something I've forgotten Curled up died and now it's rotten I'm not a gangster tonight Don't want to be a bad guy I'm just a loner baby And now you're gotten in my way I can't decide Whether you should live or die Oh you'll probably go to heaven Please don't hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It's cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We're going for a ride It's a bitch convincing people to like you If I stop now call me a quitter If lives were cats you'd be a litter Pleasing everyone isn't like you Dancing jigs until I'm crippled Slug ten drinks I won't get pickled I've got to hand it to you You've played by all the same rules It takes the truth to fool me And now you've made me angry I can't decide Whether you should live or die Oh you'll probably go to heaven Please don't hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It's cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We're going for a ride Oh I could throw you in the lake Or feed you poisoned birthday cake I wont deny I'm gonna miss you when you're gone Oh I could bury you alive But you might crawl out with a knife And kill me when I'm sleeping That's why I can't decide Whether you should live or die Oh you'll probably go to heaven Please don't hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It's cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We're going for a ride |

No pussyfootin' or that look of surprise Can't hide the holes in your eyes or cover up that bitter smile All the birds can see that you're heading south That mirror deep in your mouth reflects you running on for miles When you cut the lights out think of me When you cut the lights out think of all the things you can't see But are they real? That face will be revealed Nobody's callin' that payphone in your mind I wonder just what they find but that line's busy all the time I ain't got nothing but your seed on my face You'll put them babies to waste without your finger in the pie When you cut the lights out think of me When you cut the lights out think of all the things you can't see But are they real? That face will be revealed My mama told me one thing I'll remember till I die The one you want the most will be the one that you defy The times they're gonna love you Like stitches in the scar You can never run from trouble 'Cause there ain't no place that far When you cut the lights out think of me When you cut the lights out think of all the things you can't see But are they real? That face will be revealed |

Another constellation dies Do what you want 'cause it's your own sky Just call me when the phone stops ringing Thanks for coming by I'm just glad I'm on your good side Where it's smoldering or freezing It's never all that easy to decide This is the land of a thousand words But it seems so few are worth the breath to say Except I'll be looking after my own world And you just keep on saving the day I'll try to stay but it's in vain when you're far I'm on the run to wherever you are And that's the nature of the chase You fall so far behind you end in first place Pass the torch this time we're running to each's own regret There'sno harm in playing hard to get Boundlessness deceives me Baby you may turn the corner yet This is the land of a thousand words But it seems so few are worth the breath to say Except I'll be looking after my own world |

When you're standing on the side of a hill
Feeling like you didn't be done Here it comes, strawberry sponge Chasing away the sun Don't let those precious moments fool you Happiness is getting you down A rainbow never smiles or blinks It's just a candy colored frown You were going on at half-past seven Now it's going on a quarter 'til nine All the angels want to know Are you lost or treading water? And you're going on your fifteenth bender But you've only got a matter of time Yes we've all got seeds to sow Not everyone's got lambs to slaughter When the night wind starts to turn Into the ocean breeze And the dew drops sting and burn Like angry honey bees That is when you hear the song falling from the sky Happy yesterday to all We were born to die Sometimes you're filled with the notion The afterlife's a moment away You want to tell someone the way that you feel But then you ain't got nothing to say You fight for freedom from devotion A battle that will always begin With somebody giving you a piece of advice; By the way you're living in sin Now there's never gonna' be an intermission But there'll always be a closing night Never entertain those visions Lest you may have packed your baggages First impressions are cheap ambitions Sometimes are long goodbyes Truth so often to living dormant Good luck walks and bullshit flies When the headlights guide your way You know the place is right When the treetops sing and sway Don't go to sleep tonight That is when you see the sign Luminous and high: Tomorrow's not what it used to be We were born to die Happy yesterday to all We were born to die |

You say you see what's under me That the gloss has washed away But you're the one whose colour's gone From love to dirty grey Questions come alive in the middle of the day Over and over again Watch me start a fire in the middle of your shade That's why I'm telling you I'm gonna Kiss you off my lips I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man Kiss you off my lips It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment So excuse me a minute while I supply demand Kiss you off these lips of mine Kiss you off for a custom shine Pissed yours truly off this time It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off Spare this child your sideways smile That crack in your veneer Some blue broad will spoil your rod It just takes patience dear They rush you for your life But you'll never beat the game Older and older you get Cruch you like gyre But the gimble's all the same Oh no I think it's happening Kiss you off my lips I don't need another tube of that dime store lipstick Well I think I'm gonna buy me a brand new shade of man Kiss you off my lips It's standing room only for a piece of my pigment So excuse me a minute while I supply demand Kiss you off these lips of mine Kiss you off for a custom shine Pissed yours truly off this time It's why I ain't just kissin' you I'm kissin' you off |

Some people say such awful things I don't understand why they're so hateful We don't need those diamond rings Even though they look tasteful Chichi parties So important Sink a fortune High-class apartment One or two ooh-oohs Make you feel so good It's not a threat to nobody In fact the people should Oooh Don't you give me them blues I got magic in my dancing shoes Let me hear you say ooooh When you talk sweet things in my ear I get so hot inside I'm burning my clothes Measure distances with tears The tracks'll run for miles when I feel those Mixed emotions In your heart Guilty feelings You fall apart One or two ooooh's Nothing left to lose I'm not a threat to nobody Don't try and give me them blues Oooh Don't you give me them blues I got magic in my dancing shoes Let me hear you say ooooh Say honey baby don't you know Ain't got any money left to blow Can't buy you no snow cone Even when it's hot outside Wanna make love show you what I can do Pocket that rug and ride the groove Just lemme go dance and give me no blues tonight Oooh Don't you give me them blues I got magic in my dancing shoes Let me hear you say ooooh |

There's an urgency I'm feeling for the first time It's all mine Do we dream about each other at the same time? All night This might be the only way to talk to you That's right It's your ears with the sound that I walk into Your mind Is it the party that ain't over 'til it's through? Is it the wiring that's suddenly blown a fuse? Is it a chemical that makes this moment true? Is it the music that connects me to you? There's a way to get together then I'm gone away One day It's a place that all that matters are the notes you play I say Simple pleasures when I'm listening it gets me by Won't lie When you're singing I'll be with you 'til the exit time We shine Is it the party that ain't over 'til it's through? Is it the wiring that's suddenly blown a fuse? Is it a chemical that makes this moment true? Is it the music that connects me to you? Here I was awaiting Praying for the muse I'm finally awake and you have Left me less confused Maybe now You will hear me now I'm just in love In love with your sound Is it the party that ain't over 'til it's through? Is it the wiring that's suddenly blown a fuse? Is it a chemical that makes this moment true? Is it the music that connects me to you? Your song it gets me by When you're singing I'll be with you 'til the exit time |

What will one day Become of us We'll grow as grass under their feet No one here will ever know your name And you still lie there next to me If it takes another life I'll wait for you On the other side Everything that comes to me As good Belongs to you I'll count our blessings as I Wait for you On the other side Good luxk and I will see you through Get used to this Your're going to be alright The world goes on with or without me If I don't ever leave a thing behind I'll still leave you without me |

When you're quiet but your eyes Are saying everything I need to know I want to burrow like a sparrow Dodging alley cats and whiskers Why do we talk in whispers Is it painful hearing voices ring So early in the morning I've been waiting for the day Where I can throw away these numbers That line my dresser drawers and cupboards Start me over Life seems so much slower With your toothbrush by the mirror Can I make it any clearer And I just might say it tonight And I just might say it tonight And I just might tell you tonight that I love you And you should stay all my life They'll tell you that you'll maybe make it If you just cut your clothes and change your hair But I won't fuss and moan bout what you wear I feel so much better when I read your dirty letters |

If you're waiting for your wings but you just got legs
And you're feeding all your chickens but they won't lay eggs When you open up your drawers and see your janky clothes Just remember life's in love with you but let's suppose That God ain't gonna drop you no hundred dollar bill You're got to question your intentions 'Cause the bad ones kill Everybody wants the same thing Everybody wants the same thing No trading places on the chain gang It doesn't matter how you swing it Everybody wants the same thing When your exit sign is coming could be 'round any bend Now did you live your life proper did you just pretend That you knew what you were talking about Which side was your fence When the hammer comes down it never makes no sense Chaos is not a virtue, paranoia loads the bases Just imagine giant rivers overflowing with their faces Everybody wants the same thing Everybody wants the same thing No trading places on the chain gang It doesn't matter how you swing it Everybody wants the same thing What is it that you want? What is it that you give? Where do you plan on finding it? How do you want to live? What is it that you want? What is it that you give? Where do you plan on finding it? How do you want to live? What is it that you want? What is it that you give? Where do you plan on finding it? How do you want to live? Love is what I want Love is what I give Right here's where I'm finding it That's how I'm gonna live Love is what I want Love is what I give Right here's where I'm finding it That's how I'm gonna live Love is what I want Love is what I give Right here's where I'm finding it That's how I'm gonna live Everybody wants the same thing Everybody wants the same thing No trading places on the chain gang It doesn't matter how you swing it Everybody wants the same thing |
