Quasi - Hot Shit (2003) by Quasi (보컬) on maniadb.com

Wild goose or holy grail?
Red herring or the great white whale?
Not many live to tell the tale
Little things that just don't matter still could get me as mad as a hatter
Hot shit on a silver platter
I let go and i float away
A million miles in a couple of days
I just came back here to say goodbye

Seven years gone
Skeleton pilot the ghost ship home
He carried on, but now he's all alone
Dead on his feet, he hits the streets of old town without a dime
Sweet baby's breath could bring him back from death any time
Preacher jack, high on crack
Quote the bible, pass the hat
Dan the pimp, don the gimp, mike the ape, and tom the chimp
Newspaper says we support the prez, the "war on terror", bombs away
How much is lies and how much just unwise, i can't say
Queen of spades
Close the window, pull the shades
She had it made back in the days of the flat-top fade
She stays in her room
She owes the moon a fortune she could never pay
She hopes and she prays, but the moon won't go away

in the vicinity of infinity, on a giant lead balloon
on our way to the silvery moon
you got your crocodile boots, i got my john the conqueror roof
we got beaver hats, purple spats, and a check out of time of noon
good time rock n roll, cranked up high on the stereo
and i'm free at last
everything is moving pretty fast
we got just one more place to go
to the gulf of mexico
some sunny paradise from a land of ice and snow
i'm a long shot, i know it's true, but i just might be the best bet for you
so lay your money down and let's go to town
you know that talk is cheap and everyone is just talking in their sleep
it won't matter none to me when i'm in finity

warms you up inside, soothes your wounded pride
but your gold turns to lead as it goes to your head
and you cry drunken tears once again, my friend
so what if you're not the genius you always thought you were
nobody hears the brilliant words between your ears
and you cry drunken tears once again, my friend
and here's some ancient truth dredged up from your youth
a voice from way back when
long lost love that might have been
and you cry drunken tears once again, my friend
go ahead, i don't mind your drunken tears

nothing to say today
the bells keep chiming away
down on your knees and pray to what - the god of blood & vengeance?
sun shines down sunshine sounds
ah, but the hatfields and mccoys continue their fighting
grandmother hatfield still enjoys her jug of white lightning
sun shines down sunshine sounds

mama tried, daddy did what he could
mama cried, they just could not see you
they called you names, called you "invisible man"
they don't know how it feels to be you
dr. jekyll lied, or was that mr hyde?
took you for a ride
you give and you take and i do the same
it's no game, it's just the way it is when you're invisible

no one will hurt you, no one will hurt you
no one can hurt you, no one can hurt you
i won't allow them to hurt you
lay here beside me
stay here beside me
close your eyes, stay here with me
because no one will help you, no one will help you
no one can help you, no one can help you
i won't allow them to help you
lay here beside me, stay here beside me
close your eyes, stay here with me

life without love is all the hell you need
you're in heaven when your soul gets freed
but they'll sell you the devil, they'll sell you the lord
they'll sell you twice as much as you can afford
you reap what you sow, that's about all you need to know
you can crack up, or back up, pack up and go
silver screams and dream machines
they don't mean nothing unless you read between the beams
lost in a wilderness of teenage dreams
trying to push a bolder up a mountain of beans
but then the bean counters cancelled the show
you can crack up, or back up, pack up and go
the time is now, the place is here
not next door, not next year
never before has it been this clear
good times, happy days, in spite of it all
