Once upon a midnight dearie
I woke with something in my head I couldn't escape the memory Of a phone call and of what you said Like a game show contestant with a parting gift I could not believe my eyes When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend Who needs to humor me and tell me lies Yeah humor me and tell me lies And I'll lie too and say I don't mind And as we seek so shall we find And when you're feeling open I'll still be here But not without a certain degree of fear Of what will be with you and me I still can see things hopefully But you Why you wanna give me a run around Is it a sure fire way to speed things up When all it does is slow me down And shake me and my confidence About a great many things But I've been there I can see it cower Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings Of a bad play where the heroes are right And nobody thinks or expects too much And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights Singing hey babe let's keep in touch Hey baby let's keep in touch But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me And show me all the things no one else can see So what you feel becomes mine as well And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell What's yours and mine the fishing's fine And it doesn't have to rhyme so don't you feed me a line But you Why you wanna give me a run around Is it a sure fire well to speed things up When all it does is slow me down Tra la la la la bomba dear this is the pilot speaking And I've got some news for you It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop And there ain't a whole lot that you can do Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder Perhaps I've grown a little cynical But I know no matter what the waitress brings I shall drink in and always be full I'll drink and always be full Oh I like coffee And I like tea I could be able to enter a final plea I still got this dream that you just can't shake I love you to the point you can no longer take Well all right okay So be that way I hope and pray that there's something left to say But you Why you wanna give me a run around Is it a sure fire way to speed things up When all it does is slow me down But you Why you wanna give me a run around Is it a sure fire way to speed things up When all it does is slow me down |

You'll get no answer from me
About what I want or what I get Brave enough to speak afraid to see Confuse the issue till you forget And I've tried To finally decide Why I'm in your face And if you can't already tell I am unable to let things go I'm told I do it very well But more important you should know That all the same You've got no one to blame But yourself If you call that a waste Cause it ain't me That's been hurting you inside And if you've learned You'll know much more than I That you're gonna have to go and find it You'll have to dig beneath the ground You'll have to unearth every ugly stone That kept you on your own And simply put them down You're gonna have to look around You'll get no answer from me About what I get or what I want That was enough to make her leave She's not the first one come and gone And I don't care Buyer beware Of me Cause it might get rough If you want peace then live alone If you wanna hide then find a stage Each a brief but perfect home To accommodate your rage And sometimes In the midst of all my crimes I feel lost Or have I lost enough Remaining friends Remind me as they say It's up to you The things you throw away And still you're gonna have to go and find it You'll have to dig beneath the ground You'll have to unearth every ugly stone That kept you on your own And simply put them down You're gonna have to look around You're gonna have to look around You're gonna have to look around |

With an air of indignation
Smiles a painted porcelain face And we're supposed to trust this Decorum has its place But you and I beyond that With a question I might ask How suddenly the smile doth crack When we slip beneath the mask And they're fallible Yeah they're fallible And we hold up a mirror And we hate what we see And we keep on trekking westward Infallibly God I wanna touch you In the place you wanna hide Dare you to come after me Commit my "narcisside" Punishing the guilty Was never the intent I just busted out of prison baby That's really where I went And I'm fallible Yeah I'm fallible And we hold up a mirror And we hate what we see And we keep on trekking westward Infallibly In the name of all the power That's centered in your hand If you crave some revolution Take possession of your stand It's the only one you'll get to make In a moment come and gone So do your best to stay awake And own the path you're on Cause you're fallible Yeah you're fallible And we hold up a mirror And we hate what we see And we keep on trekking westward Infallibly Infallibly ... Forgiving nothing |

I walk right by him and he's freezing his ass off
He could be dead I'm supposed to walk away I won't remember a thing come the summertime Handful of quarters make me feel okay Ah ah who's gonna have to pay Ah ah who do I love today I love what's mine cause what's mine is all mine Gives me a reason to go get more Don't really care where I go to get it I ain't too clear about "What's yours is yours" You take it for granted I guess that's what it's for But before you demand it Take a look out your back door If you don't like a single thing that I'm saying If you're offended when I demonstrate Don't mean a damn to me and I shall continue Hope you won't mind if I control my fate Ah ah who will I have to fight Ah ah to defend my created right I'll defend what's mine cause what's mine will be all mine It's what I'd fight for it's for what I'd bleed I roll the dice on the grand experiment While I am strong I will get what I need You take it for granted I guess that's what it's for But before you demand it Take a look out your back door If you're concerned with the moral imperative If you are tripping on the right thing to do Come to my office with the exclusive screenplay I think there's money in a book about you Ah ah what have you got to lose Ah ah which are you gonna choose I choose what's mine so what's mine will be all mine Gonna make a million on the folly of men Don't even care about no consequences Turn my damnation into chapter ten You take it for granted I guess that's what it's for But before you demand it Take a look out your back door |

Standing here with a tale to tell
I might as well tell to you Nothing near Wagnerian As Terminator Two Its an old one about a little dirt farm girl Who wanted to get out for good Shed do anything to keep that dream Shed do anything she could CHORUS: Who was she To feel so free With her heart on her sleeve She just couldnt believe... There was a price to pay Her very first chance to escape that year Came when the circus had come to town She wound up in bed and quite madly in love With some rubber nose juggling clown He promised hed return for her come next spring And he swore that he wouldnt forget Needless to say come the following May More than her appetite was getting wet She proceeded unheeded and quite undefeated To the trailer behind the tents And her heart began to scar at his trailer door She was gonna go wherever he went CHORUS He arrived at last about half past With a girl under every arm But all of this in itself could have been innocent as hell But what began to cause her alarm Was when he locked the door behind him like she always bee She was standing alone in the dirt And her eyes were so dry that she began to cry And something began to hurt She wanted to tear the hair out of her head Yeah and she wanted to wish that she was dead But a voice in her just would not let her drop And her heart began to break but it didnt stop Run all youre races And dont you fear You and I Are getting out of here And well survive That I guarrantee Cause you dont need much When all you have is me. She listened to the little voice in her And then she hit the road Free at last and with just a tiny scar And finally on her own No one knows what became of her All we know is she got away And though there really aint no guarantees down here I like to think she did okay CHORUS That theres a price to pay(4x) |

It doesn't matter what I say
So long as I sing with inflection That makes you feel that I'll convey Some inner truth of vast reflection But I've said nothing so far And I can keep it up for as long as it takes And it don't matter who you are If I'm doing my job it's your resolve that breaks Because the hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The hook brings you back On that you can rely There is something a miss I am being insincere In fact I don't mean any of this Still my confession draws you near To confuse the issue I refer To familiar heroes from long ago No matter how much Peter loved her What made the Pan refuse to grow Was that the hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The hook brings you back On that you can rely Suck it in suck it in suck it in If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn Make a desperate move or else you'll win And then begin To see What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free It's so PC it's killing me So desperately I sing to thee Of love Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf I've tried well no in fact I lied Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside To hide or slide I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died And only then shall I abide this tide Of catchy little tunes Of hip three minute ditties I wanna bust all your balloons I wanna burn all of your cities To the ground I've found I will not mess around Unless I play then hey I will go on all day hear what I say I have a prayer to pray That's really all this was And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because The hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The hook On that you can rely |

If ever you are feeling like you're tired
And all your uphill struggles leave you headed downhill If you realize your wildest dreams can hurt you And your appetite for pain has drinken its fill I ask of you a very simple question Did you think for one minute that you are alone And is your suffering a privilege you share only Or did you think that everybody else feels completely at home Just wait Just wait Just wait And it will come If you think I've given up on you you're crazy And if you think I don't love you well then you're just wrong In time you just might take to feeling better Time is the beauty of the road being long I know that now you feel no consolation But maybe if I told you and informed you out loud I say this without fear of hesitation I can honestly tell you that you make me proud Just wait Just wait Just wait And it will come Just wait Just wait Just wait And it will come If anything I might have just said has helped you If anything I might have just said helped you just carry on Your rise uphill may no longer seem a struggle And your appetite for pain may all but be gone I hope for you and cannot stop at hoping Until that smile has once again returned to your face There's no such thing as a failure who keeps trying Coasting to the bottom is the only disgrace Just wait Just wait Just wait And it will come Just wait Just wait Just wait And it will come Just wait Just wait Just wait And it will come |
