Cracker - Hello Cleveland! Live From The Metro (2005) by Cracker (보컬) on maniadb.com

So we were standing, like the last rock band on the planet
Of vapor trails and alpine skies
It's all green fields, yellow flowers, and brown liquor
Oh brown liquor

Bug's got a job in the Catskills
Met some fraulein along the way
Took her home, but then she had an episode
Though it did disturb him, he was strangely compelled

Seven days when I've been waiting
Seven days and seven nights
Seven days when I've been dreaming
Of the real thing
Of the real thing

So we were standing around, fading in and out of fashion
While Amerikids dug Eurobeats
Well we know all of the doormen and other bartendresses
And there ain't nothing that you got that we don't need
Did I say that right?

Seven days when I've been waiting
Seven days and seven nights
Seven days when I've been dreaming
Of the real thing
Of the real thing

Seven days when I've been waiting
Seven days and seven nights
Seven days when I've been dreaming
Of the real thing
Of the real thing

Seven days when I've been waiting
Seven days and seven nights
Seven days when I've been dreaming
Of the real thing
Of the real thing
Of the real thing
Of the real thing
Of the real thing
Of the real thing

This holy circus camp
Aladdin and his lamp
A feverish daydreams and suerte loca
My face in magazines
The lesbian James Dean
I got all I ever wanted

So I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Well I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Down miles of empty road
With acolytes in tow
You could be Persephone
A pigeon through the glass
A drunken trapeze act

Well you got all you ever wanted
So I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Well I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Well I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Well I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Well I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Well I don't mind saying
This is how the good life's supposed to be
The good life for you, for me

Well, lucky number seven passed me by
Lucky number seven called my name and passed on by
Well he came back don't you know
With his brother six in tow
And that is how number thirteen wound up at my side

And that is how I got these lonesome Johnny blues
How I got these lonesome Johnny blues
Got the lonesome Johnny blues
And there's nothing I can do
'Cept sing these sad old weary lonesome Johnny blues

Here we go

Grim reaper he pulled up into my drive
Grim reaper pulled his little old chevrolet right up onto the goddamn drive
Johnny, I haven't come up for you
But I want someone who's dear to you
And the price you pay is to remain alive

And I'll stay here with these lonesome Johnny blues
Stay here with these lonesome Johnny blues
With the lonesome Johnny blues
And there's nothing I can do
'Cept sing these sad old weary lonesome Johnny blues

Woah, no more trouble send him down the road, won't you please.
No more trouble won't you beat him up, won't you send him down the road
Trouble dumped out the trash
Ransacked the place for cash
And he wound up taking much more than I own

And he left me with these lonesome Johnny blues
Left me with these lonesome Johnny blues
With the lonesome Johnny blues
And there's nothing I can do
'Cept sing these sad old weary lonesome Johnny blues

Johnny blues
The sad old weary lonesome Johnny blues
Johnny blues
The sad old weary lonesome Johnny blues

Cigarette and carrot juice
And get yourself a new tattoo
for those sleeveless days of June

I'm sitting on the Cafe Xeno's steps
with a book I haven't started yet
watching all the girls walk by

Could I take you out
I'll be yours without a doubt
on that big dipper

And if the sound of this it frightens you
we could play it real cool
and act somewhat indifferent

And hey June why did you have to come,
why did you have to come around so soon
I wasn't ready for all this nature

The terrible green green grass,
and violent blooms of flowered dresses
and afternoons that make me sleepy

But we could wait awhile
before we push that dull turnstile
into the passage

The thousands they had tread
and others sometimes fled
before their turn came
...

And we could wait our lives
before a chance arrives
before the passage

From the top you can see Monterey
or think about San Jose
though I know it`s not that pleasant

And hey Jim Kerouac brother of the famous Jack
or so he likes to say "lucky bastard"

He's sitting on the cafe Xeno's steps
with a girl I'm not over yet
watching all the world go by

Boy you are looking bad
Did I make you feel that sad
I'm honestly flattered

But if she asks me out
I'll be hers without a doubt
on that big dipper

Cigarettes and carrot juice
and get yourself a new tattoo
for those sleeveless days of June

I'm sitting on the cafe Xeno's steps
I haven't got the courage yet,
I haven't got the courage yet,

I haven't got the courage yet

I don't know what the world may need
But I'm sure as hell that is starts with me
And that's a wisdom
I've laughed at

I don't know what the world may want
But a good stiff drink it surely don't
So I think I'll go and fix myself a tall one

Cause, what the world needs now
Is a new kind of tension
Cause the old one just bores me to death
Cause, what the world needs now
Is another folk singer
Like I need a hole in my head

I don't know what the world may need
But a V8 engine is a good start for me
Think I'll drive to find a place
To be surly
I don't know what the world may want
But some words of wisdom could comfort us
Think I'll leave that up to someone wiser

Cause, what the world needs now
Are some true words of wisdom
Like La La La La La La La La La
Cause, what the world needs now
Is another folk singer
Like I need a hole in my head

I don't know what the world may need
And I never grasped your complexities
I'd be happy just to get your attention
And, I don't know what the world may want
But your long, sweet body lying next
To mine could certainly raise my spirits

Cause what the world needs now
Is a new Frank Sinatra
So I can get you in bed
What the world needs now
Is another folk singer
Like I need a hole in my head
What the world needs now
What the world needs now
Is another folk singer

Like I need a hole in my head
What the world needs now
What the world needs now
Is a new Frank Sinatra
So I can get you in bed

What the world needs now
What the world needs now
Is another folk singer
Like I need a hole in my head

What the world needs now
What the world needs now
Is another folk singer
Like I need a hole in my head

It's been a long time since I had Sweet Thistle Pie
It's been a long time since I had Sweet Thistle Pie
She claps her hands and snaps her fingers
Knows my name but calls me Ginger
It's been a long time since I had Sweet Thistle Pie

Hey Hey Hey Yeah

(Sweet Thistle Pie) Sweet Thistle Pie
(Sweet Thistle Pie) Sweet Thistle Pie
Sweet Thistle Pie

It's been a long time since I've been so very low
It's been a long time since I've been so very low
When I was young you were no stranger
Around the world and slip through my fingers
It's been a long time since I've been so very low

Hey Hey Hey Yeah

Sweet Thistle Pie
Sweet Thistle Pie
(Sweet Thistle Pie) Sweet Thistle Pie
Sweet Thistle Pie

Sweet Thistle Pie
Sweet Thistle Pie
Sweet Thistle Pie
Sweet Thistle Pie

Sweet Thistle
Sweet Thistle
Sweet Thistle
Sweet Thistle Pie
Sweet Thistle Pie

Well we went to the station
They were looking for vegas
But I was stuck in my Beat phase
Like it was 1959

They say the girls wanna hip-shake
They say the boys wanna ball-break
But we couldn't be bothered
Cause we're hipper than y'all

And everyday I resolve to say
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine

So will you give me salvation
Or a standing ovation
Cause I really deserve it
And so much more

The big kid in the magazines
You and me, we went to make the scene
But get your name, man
And tomorrow you'll be gone

So everyday I resolve to say
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine

But everyday I resolve to say
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine

The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine
The world is mine

Sometimes I wanna take you down
Sometime I wanna get you low
Brush your hair back from your eyes
Take you down let the river flow

Sometimes I go and walk the street
Behind a green sheet of glass
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles

I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned

A million poppies gonna make me sleep
Just one rose it knows your name
The fruit is rusting on the vine
A fruit is calling from the trees

Hey don't you wanna go down
Like some junky cosmonaut
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles

I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned

Blue, blue is the sun
Brown, brown is the sky
Green, green are her eyes
A million miles, a million miles

Hey don't you wanna go down
Like some disgraced cosmonaut
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles

I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned

I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
