Was the night - I was young
When my father called for his first born son Took me place at his side While this great chief raged in the fire light We'd reclaim days of old If the tribe would do what his dream foretold Praying to the vision of the promised land Swaying to the rhythm of the drums We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan When the shots rang out, there soldiers all around And their cannons put an end to our holy singin' of (OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin' (OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance Hypnotized by my tale Generations learn of the Great Betrayal long ago At Wounded Knee Where our grandfathers bled for what they believed Wouldn't buy what they sold - reservation Life for our Black Hills gold For praying to the vision of the promised land Swaying to the rhythm of the drums We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan The Great Spirit cried when our warriors fell to the hail of The blue coat's guns (so we're singin') (OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance singin' (OH) The first cowboys were doing the Ghostdance For your soul, for your name Many brave men's blood's running through your veins Leave your mark - walk with pride Live in honor to those who gave their lives Ancient hearts are still seeking peace - As you sing and dance, so you set them free For praying to the vision of the promised land Swaying to the rhythm of the drums Pledging your allegiance to Wevoka's plan By the marker that stands where our women and children Fell to the blue coat's guns (start singin') Praying to the vision of the promised land Swaying to the rhythm of the drums We were pledging our allegiance to Wevoka's plan When the shots rang out, there soldiers all around And their cannons put an end to our holy singin' of |

It was right from the start
So I surrendered the key to my heart I was sure we couldn't miss But now I taste something strange in your kiss People are talkin' lately sayin' you've been messin' around I don't wanna believe it baby, but it's all over town Chorus: They tell me you've got the devil in your soul Say it isn't so that I'm the very last to know Say it isn't true about you Before I say we're through I wanna hear it from your point of view Cause I would die if I had to let you go Say it isn't so I recall the love that we made It was hot - like a hundred degrees in the shade Tell me now - what do I do If I find that you lied when I trusted in you? Did you try to deceive me? Did you baby? Or are you misunderstood? You could sell me a story - maybe But you better make it good Chorus (Come here and look me in the eye) (Oh, no, no, you can't fool me, baby) You can't hide your lyin' eyes - I gotta big surprise for you (Girl you're gonna get it) I found out what you're all about - you can scream and shout (But I think you might regret it) I'm gonna give you one more chance To tell your tale - confess the past So watch your step, cause it might be your last They tell me you've got the devil in your soul Say it isn't so that I'm the very last to know Say it isn't true about you Before I say we're through I wanna hear it- baby, I swear it that I would die if I had to let you go Say it isn't so (Oh no, no!) Say it isn't so Say it isn't so |

You're a mattress - you're a bees nest
You are heroin in an armored vest You're a plane crash - you are white trash You're a rubber arrow through my chest So why oh why am I still in love with you? You're a cartoon - you're a bastard moon You're the feathered throat that brought Rome to ruin You're a sunburn - you are milk turned You were Sunday - schooled, but you never learned So why oh why am I still in love with you? And we danced to the sounds of Taj Mahal And then the alarm clock rang and shook me from the ball You're a used car - you're a porn star You're a drunken sailor's wet cigar So why oh why am I still in love with you? You're an earthquake - you're a toothache You're an angry nurse on a coffee break So why oh why am I still in love with you? Why oh why am I still in love with you? Why? |

I've opened your eyes but you still won't see
Why a girl like you should want a boy like me You can try but you'll fail to derail my one track mind I wasn't raised to come on like this Unsatisfied with your goodnight kissin' - listen, I've been cool But baby, it's high time we went to school Ooh - you talk too much - just give it a rest After all this time, it doesn't make much sense That I gotta take your word we ain't in no rush One more night and a lame excuse Ain't gonna change my mind - no, it ain't no use I give you my love and I don't get your magic touch Ooh - you talk too much Oil and water would be more right The limits we have are like fire and ice Your daddy must be so proud you draw that line If I were a picture, then you'd be the neg But know that I ain't too prideful To beg you on one bended knee Till what I get is more what I've seen Ooh - you talk too much - just give it a rest After all this time, it doesn't make much sense That I gotta take your word we ain't in no rush One more night and a lame excuse Ain't gonna change my mind - no, it ain't no use I'm gonna explode if you don't feel my crush Ooh - you talk too much Tryin' to recover cuz you saw it my way Walkin' two feet off the ground on a hard night's day (I was) baskin' in the glow so it caught me unaware When you met me at the door sayin', ";Stop right there!"; Ooh - you talk too much - just give it a rest After all this time, it doesn't make much sense Didn't you make me a deal when I called your bluff? I wasn't foolin' bout (our) foolin' around Whyc |

A place like this - a girl like you
Is all I need to get me through I'm hypnotized when you take the stage Table dance my blues away From Officer Easy to Little Bo Peep She's a master of disguise She's sugar and spice, she's naughty and nice And she can read my dirty mind Chorus: C'mon little honey, walk this way Strut your stuff in that lingerie That's right, pretty momma Give me your sunset strip Tease me, please me, help me unwind And I'll feed your pretty kitty one buck at a time Bump it - grind it - blow me a kiss I'm at your mercy when you do that sunset strip You're a feast for hungry eyes You could make a grown man cry You're in control of every man Your every wish is my command If Calamity Jane doesn't drive me insane Nurse Nympho is sure to please Then Little Annie Fannie's gonna rock me to my knees Chorus Keep this up and I'll blow my lid You make me explode when you do that sunset strip Your sunset strip has got me goin' crazy (Take it off!!!)

You begged me to stop my fussin'
There's something that needs discussin', You've been keeping inside you And it's high time I know There's no way to break it gently When you told me forever, It doesn't mean it wasn't true at the time, But it's time for you to go Am I readin' you right? Did you just turn out the light at the end of our ten year Tunnel of Love? Yeah, I know it's your hour of need- But what about me? I won't be the cage that holds you, I won't be the one who told you that you're making a mistake No Baby I've never been that kind And if you're sayin' that I've confined you, By all means go but let me remind you You can't change your world as easy as changin' your mind. What more do I have to give? Guess I'll just have to live with the thought My tears'll be setting you free And I hope you find all you seek- But what about me? What do you want me to say? Girl, you're walking away with The only dream I ever believed. You'll be livin' through leavin' us be But what about me? Well I know love don't come guaranteed- But what about me? |

A painted promise - A smokescreen dream
It wasn't all we thought it'd be A fortune made - when we betrayed The faith we'd placed in our blind belief We were once close as blood Yeah... Locked inside - pride's prison cells Separately suffering for our sins Well, the seasons changed - but the chill remains A karmic debt keeps us siamese twins Until it's said, nothing's done Chorus: The silence is broken And that we have spoken Don't turn away I know we can change A quickening - A bitter end Come what may, something must be said This reckoning - Should be deafening Instead of pregnant tranquility The rebirth has begun Chorus Emancipation lives and breathes In the words one should but never speaks Communication can end this speculation And if we fall then at least we'll go down screaming! Broken! The silence is broken! Till it's said, nothing's done! The silence is broken! |

Started with a glimmer in your baby doll eyes
Worked it with your shimmer then made off with the prize Made and broke the covenant we found ourselves in Baptized in the waters of original sin Chorus: Give me an ";L"; for the loser that you'd swore I'd never be An ";O"; as in over - just like you and me I need a ";V"; as in victim, which is just what I am An ";E"; for education cause I just don't understand How could I give you the best I got And it all still spells L.O.V.E. me not Medicating words just added fluid to the flame The king awoke to find he'd been a pawn in your game Well, little miss spider, you can get out and gone But the house is on fire, and the children are alone Chorus Hypnotized by the lies of a true believer You gave me a crash course in my A.B.C. - ya's I should've known it's all been just a game Now that you're gone, who'll take the blame? |

Johnny played the rebel - huntin' for a cause
Sh-sh-sh-short fuse fused dynamite hungry for a spark - ooh yeah His 9 mil. Loaded with borrowed time Bad boy swore he couldn't die Till he faced a man a little bit quicker on the draw He tried to steal his destiny He bragged of immortality Now he ain't that tough six feet deep Chorus: Short rides on the glory train Through dead end streets of no escape Lyin' in the bed you made on a ship That came in too late You're running out of time You're running out of time Jenny came home from the ritzy side of town D - drove her mommy's Benz - Lived in Daddy's great big house - ooh yeah She hawked her gold to feed the spike A great escape on the pony ride Cuz Mom and Dad wouldn't let their little baby out When China White's your lyin' friend You've sold you soul when the party ends And you're dancing blind on the razor's edge Chorus You and me are victims of our blood Haunted by the ghosts of who we loved Our parents sing that same old song ";Where the Hell did we go wrong?"; Just take a look in the mirror Mom and Dad! Don't look back it burns your eyes You can't win if you don't try Only you control your life Chorus Don't you know you're runnin' out of time? Wake up! Wake up! God dammit wake up! You're running out of time You're running out of time You're running out of time time time |

Another lonely night
I can't fight this feeling Lying in my cold, dark room alone In a dream I see your face You say you're never leaving Then I wake up to find you're gone Now, I know it's true That only you can stop these Chorus: Tears of pain running down my face I'll never be the same Will I make it through another night? You left and tore my soul apart Now, nothing else remains but tears of pain Here in my memories We will last forever It seems so close I can almost taste your love If I must go down this endless road with you I'll just lose control And I'd break every rule For one more chance at you Cause only you can stop these Chorus Whoa, tears of pain running down my face I'll never be the same Will I make it through another night? The emptiness still lingers on I guess that I'm to blame When you left it tore my soul apart Now, nothing else remains but tears of pain |

Looking back on a girl I knew
Whose smile and laughter carried me through Oh, the way that I felt when she looked at me that way When I heard she was gone I had no one to hold I wept as I felt my heart growin' cold Like poppa she taught me there's no time like today ...i hear her saying Chorus: Love me today, and let my strength be your own Love me today, because tomorrow I'll be gone When I feel it's time to go - I'll be on my way So love me today I remember a time back when Poppa would laugh as I held his hand And just one embrace would make my troubles pass I thought those times would never end The day that he left he smiled and he said, I'll be home soon but poppa never came back... I hear him saying Don't be afraid to say, "i love you" Take the moment and make it last ¡®cause if you don't tell them you love them You might not get a second chance ...so hear them saying Chorus ....love me today (oh) |
