In the fog lights
There was tear gas floating through the twilight And he wondered what life would be like With a giant screen TV A fridge full of a beer and a conscience that's clean You see, lately She'd been thinking 'bout her little tiny baby And the boy who had gone to defend me She's a good friend of mine But I can't take the place of her man anytime And it won't be long 'Til he's coming home You gotta bring your soldier home All those stones have all been thrown You gotta give a kid a chance to get a look at his kid And hope he can live with whatever he did Now, meanwhile He was reading magazines on the front line He was trying not to think about her life And what he might have done 'Cause it seemed like none of them were having any fun You see lately She'd been acting kinda crazy Lately Oh man, I thought she was gonna hate me 'Cause I couldn't watch the little one I had so much to do I was so high-strung And it won't be long 'Til Daddy's home You gotta bring your soldier home All those stones have all been thrown You gotta give a kid a chance to get a look at his kid And hope he can live with whatever he did Lately All the hate escapes me Lately All the hate just escapes me Lately So he phoned her He said "Darling I'm feeling so alone here Am I making myself perfectly clear? That I'm on my way back Just a couple more missions and I'll start getting packed" You gotta bring your soldier home All those stones have all been thrown You gotta give a kid a chance to get a look at his kid And hope he can live with whatever he did Lately I was wondering if she'd heard from him lately Lately I was wondering if she'd heard from him lately |

Now that you're old enough
And all grown now, tryin' to act so tough Here comes a slap right in the face Branding irons and cattle prods Cowboys everywhere, ropes flyin through the air Leaves some kind of funny aftertaste And when the room gets small And the streets are filled with fighting You'll find a way to escape You'll find a better place Cause it's a crazy mixed up world out there Someones always got a gun and it's all about money You live with loneliness or you live with somebody Who's crazy - It's just a crazy mixed up world Jet fighters streak the air And where they're going nobody seems to care I guess we'll just wait and watch 'em fade I don't think much about The things I thought I just couldn't live without I live without them everyday And when you just can't handle One more panhandler It leaves you wishing for change A fast car to take you away It's a crazy mixed up world out there Someones always got a gun and it's all about money You live with loneliness or you live with somebody Who's crazy - It's just a crazy mixed up world So take your shattered faith And make it just like new with crazy glue and tape You're gonna need it again someday You're gonna need it again You're gonna need it today Cause it's a crazy mixed up world out there Someones always got a gun and it's all about money You live with loneliness or you live with somebody Who's crazy - It's just a crazy mixed up world |

Black lights and a disco ball
Cut the carpets going wall to wall Maybe someday won't be just one way Had a dream I was laying in hell Looked a lot like this hotel Maybe one day, won't be just one way But it's one big maybe And maybe I'm the one who's crazy How can I find out, How can I wonder, Trying to be like you. And all is well in hell, I wish you were here, I wishing you well. You know who asked about you As far as I can tell all in all, all is well. A bomb shelter and some cans of food A gas mask looks good on you Come and see me Ya wouldn't wanna be me I think I injured my funny bone I'm gonna cry when I get home Maybe one day, save it for someday. But it's one big maybe And maybe I'm the one who's crazy How can I find out, How can I wonder, Trying to be like you. And all is well in hell I wish you were here, I wishing you well. You know who asked about you As far as I can tell All in all, all is well. All is well...... All is well, here in hell I wish you were here, I wishing you well. All is well, here in hell! I wish you were here, All in all, all is well. All in all, all is well. All in all, all is well! |

Calling you from inside the wire
I'm payin' my dues underneath your tires Standing out in the middle of traffic Photographing the crash Waitin' in line with little old ladies With a bug up my ass I wanna live in your car I'm never going too far Calling you from inside the wire I'm payin' my dues underneath your tires I got a hostage situation Someone's crackin' the whip Some are puttin' up a fierce resistance Some are getting their kicks Out of the blue and into the fire I've got no use for being tired Calling you from inside the wire I'm payin' my dues underneath your tires A bus named desire Now I'm all alone here wainting like I'm buried alive Gotta crawl my way out maybe if I plan to survive Born in a zoo, raised in a cage What's it to you if I break through anyway? Calling you from inside the wire I'm payin' my dues underneath your tires Calling you from inside the wire I'm payin' my dues underneath your tires A bus named desire A bus named desire A bus named desire A bus named desire A bus named desire |

Down from the mountain
Running wild through the trees A crystal glimour, rolling along so effortlessly. Trickled down from the country But the city sucked it in and spit it out Now the gravity pulls you to the curb side now and it's getting light... And it's too soon, too fast.. And now they're never gonna last... Standing water, standing to close to the sun with your rainbow run-off, you're like a sitting duck waiting for the summer rain to come. I was at low-life in the hotlands, I was barely living up to the standard undemands, I had run out of reasons to let myself believe in anything, I wanted to phone home so many times but I'm never giving in, you know dreams never die. |

Blood on the sidewalk
Washing down the drain Rushing around the crime scene To hide behind the stain Hide behind the pain Blue-colored lady Black eye behind the shades It's funny how the players They can't survive the game I'll survive the game Rule maker, dream taker Numbers on a sheet The execution, the grand delusion Success is not so sweet Damaged for the first time Who knew it'd be you? You could try to save me And I'll try to save you Try to save you Dealmaker, heartbreaker Numbers on a sheet The wild confusion, the strange delusion Success is not so sweet Success is not so sweet You want a baby, I know you do I'll be your baby And I'll take care of you I'll take care of you Widow maker, deal-breaker The blood runs down the street The execution, conclusion Success is not so sweet Dream faker, pocket shaker The numbers on a sheet The execution, the institution Success is not so sweet Success is not so sweet Success is not so sweet |

Can we not talk about this
I don't wanna talk about that So maybe put on some records And kick back Cause I'll blow it way out of proportion Make it loud beyond distortion Don't ask me now And please don't ask me later Cause I am the great exaggerator Please don't argue With the great exaggerator We're so misunderstood Every little thing's taboo Sometimes I'm so hard To talk to Cause I'll blow it way out of proportion Make it loud beyond distortion My mind is bubblin' Like a percolator Cause I am the great exaggerator Please don't disagree With the great exaggerator So can we not talk about this I don't wanna talk about that Maybe turn on the tv And kick back Cause I am the great exaggerator Don't ask me now And please don't ask me later Cause I'll blow it way out of proportion Make it loud beyond distortion Please don't argue With the great exaggerator Please don't argue With the great exaggerator |

Wishin' upon a mattress
Fallin' off the excess Slippin' the stillness Flippin' the bird I walk you home when you're wasted I can almost taste it All this oxygen is for you But it's a couple more volts of shock treatment for you When a couple more votes of confidence will do I walk you home when you're wasted I can almost taste it It's a couple more volts of shock treatment for you When a couple more votes of confidence will do Always there to remind you Before and behind you It follows you everywhere you go They may say you're crazy It don't even phase me 'Cause you're the sanest one I know Just a couple more breaths of oxygen will do They may say you're crazy It makes you so amazing But it's a couple more volts of shock treatment for you Couple more volts of shock treatment for you When a couple more votes of confidence will do A little bit less of loneliness will do Just a couple more breaths of oxygen will do But it's a couple more bills and a couple more pills And a couple more why do you do those things you do?! Shock! Shock treatment for you! Just a couple more volts of shock treatment for you Shock! Shock treatment for you! Just a couple more breaths of oxygen will do Shock! Shock treatment for you! Treatment, treatment for you! Shock! Shock treatment for you! That'll do, that'll do, that'll do, that'll do, that'll do |
