Brian Wheat

You got a bad reputation
That's the word out on the town
It gives a certain fascination
But it can only bring you down

You better turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around

You had bad breaks well that's tough luck
You play too hard too much rough stuff
You're too sly so cold
That bad reputation has made you old

Turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around

People moving out, people moving in. Why, because of the color of their skin.
Run, run, run but you sure can't hide. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
Vote for me and I'll set you free. Rap on, brother, rap on.
Well, the only person talking about love thy brother is the...(preacher.)
And it seems nobody's interested in learning but the...(teacher.)
Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration, Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation.
Ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey.
The sale of pills are at an all time high.
Young folks walking round with their heads in the sky.
The cities ablaze in the summer time.
And oh, the beat goes on.
Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul.
Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon.
Politicians say more taxes will solve everything.
And the band played on.
So, round and around and around we go.
Where the world's headed, nobody knows.

(Instrumental)

Oh, great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you.
Just a ball of confusion.

Oh yeah, that's what the world is today.
Woo, hey, hey.
Fear in the air, tension everywhere.
Unemployment rising fast, the Beatles new record's a gas.
And the only safe place to live is on an Indian reservation.
And the band played on.
Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors,
Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills,
Hippies moving to the hills. People all over the world are shouting, 'End the war.'
And the band played on.

(Instrumental)

Great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you.
Sayin'... ball of confusion.
That's what the world is today, hey, hey.
Sayin'... ball of confusion.
That's what the world is today, hey, hey.
Ball of confusion.
That's what the world is today, hey, hey.
Ball of confusion.

Bell bottom blues, you made me cry
I don't want to lose this feeling
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

It's all wrong but it's alright
The way that you treat me, baby
Once I was strong but I lost the fight
But you won't find a better loser

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Bell bottom blues don't say goodbye
We're surely gonna meet again
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with another lover, oh

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

I saw a light, just up ahead
But I couldn't seem to rise up from my bed
I'm not alone, than I am
People seem to think I'm superman
But I watch for the love
I'm living in the day of the eagle, the eagle not the, dove

It's like a weight, that brings me down
If I don't move, I'm on the ground
It's in my mind, Its in my soul
It's telling me the things I can't be told
It's a watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove

Another day, another night
I want to love, they want to fight
I need the time, I got to be alone
I got to meet a lover on my own
I watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove

Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar
Make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years

repeat x2

Anybody here see the noise, see the fear
And commotion,
I think we missed it
Anybody here see the love, see the hate
Being motioned...

(Chorus)
Don't Give me no hand me down shoes
Don't Give me no hand me down love
Don't Give me no hand me down world
Got one already.

Anybody here see the long distance cheer
For the notion,
I think we missed it
Anybody here see the sky weaping tears
For the ocean...

(Chorus)

Anybody here see fuzzy-wuzzly loving cup explosion
I think we missed it
Anybody here see the changing of the year-end emotion...

(Chorus)

Don't give me no hand me down world
I don't wanna take it and I really don't need it

I met a gin-soaked bar-room queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

I laid a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me in roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

I've got a feeling, a feeling deep inside, oh yeah
Oh, yeah, that's right
I've got a feeling, a feeling I can't hide, oh no no
oh no, oh no
Yeah, yeah
I've got a feeling, yeah

Oh please believe me, I'd hate to miss the train
Oh yeah yeah oh yeah
And if you leave me, I won't be late again
oh no, oh no, oh no
yeah, yeah
I've got a feeling, yeah
I've got a feeling

All these years I've been wandering around
wondering how come nobody told me
All that I was looking for was somebody
who looked like you

I've got a feeling that keeps me on my toes
oh yeah, oh yeah
I've got a feeling that everybody knows
oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
yeah, yeah
I have hot a feeling, yeah
Yeah

Everybody had a hard year
Everybody had a good time
Everybody had a wet dream
Everybody saw the sun shine
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Everybody had a good year
Everybody let their hair down
Everybody pulled their socks up
Everybody put their foot down
oh yeah

Everybody had a good year
Everybody had a hard time
Everybody had a wet dream
Everybody saw the sun shine
Everybody had a good year
Everybody let their hair down
Everybody pulled their socks up
Everybody put their foot down
oh yeah

I've got a feeling

I've got a feeling, yeah

Seventeen, a nature's queen
You'll know what I mean
Twenty-one, a long one
You can see the numbers run
Now you look so peaceful,
Lyin' there asleep
With the wings of God above you
Before the spirits meet

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Shadow earth is closin' in
Above the lamps in your street
Lucifer goes walkin'
Down for you to meet
Minutes pass so slowly by
The hands on your clock
Heaven's door don't open
When you knock

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

With the darkness closin' in
Will the light reveal your soul?
One sweet kiss
On your clay cold lips
Long, long sleep you'll never know
Where do we go, where do we go
Where do we go from here?

Seventeen, a nature's queen
You'll know what I mean
Twenty-one, a long one
You can see the numbers run
Now you look so peaceful
Lyin' there asleep
With the wings of God above you
Before the spirits meet

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Well, we had a lot of luck on Venus
We always had a ball on Mars

We've rocked the Milky Way so far
We danced around with Borealis
We're space truckin' 'round the the stars

Come on

And every night we'd dance and sway
We got music in our solar system
We're space truckin' round the stars

Come on

The fireball that we rode was moving
But now we've got a new machine

"Man those cats can really swing"
They got music in their solar system
They've rocked around the Milky Way
Well, they've danced around the Borealis
They're space truckin' every day

Take me across the water 'cause I need some place to hide.
I done the rancher's daughter and I sure did hurt his pride.

Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah
Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah.

Well, there's a hundred miles of desert lies between his hide and mine.
I don't need no food, no water, Lord, 'cause I'm running out of time.

Fightin', killin', wine and women gonna put me to my grave.
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin'. nothing left to save
But my life.

Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah
Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah.

Stood on a ridge and shunned religion, thinking the world was mine.
I made my break and a big mistake, stealing when I should have been buying.

All that fightin', killin', wine and women gonna put me to an early grave.
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin', nothing left to save
But my life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life.

So I stood on a ridge and shunned religion, thinking the world was mine.
I made my break and a big mistake, stealing when I should have been buying.
I was stealing when I should have been buying,
I was stealing when I should have been buying.

Stealing
When I should have been buying
Stealing
When I should have been buying
Stealing
when I should have been buying
Stealing
When I should have been buying
Stealing
When I should have been buying
Stealing, whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah
Stealing
When I should have been buying
Stealing
Rock and roll!

Takin' my time
Choosin' my lines
Try'n' to decide what to do
Looks like my stop
Don't wanna get off
Got myself hung up on you

Seems to me
You don't wanna talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head and walk away

Places I've known
Things that I'm growin'
Don't taste the same without you
I got my self in
The worst mess I've been
And I find myself starvin' without you

Seems to me
Talk all night here comes the mornin'
Seems to me
You just forget what we said and greet the day

I've got to cool myself down
Stompin' around
Thinkin' some words I can't name ya
Meet you half way
Got nothing to say
Still I don't s'ppose I can blame ya

Seems to me
You don't wanna talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head and walk away

Doesn't matter who gets the best of who
Or who can hurt who the most, no.
It never was meant for it to be that way,
Never should be that way at all.

Chorus:
The way it is, the way that it goes
Happenin' day after day, yeah.
That's the way it is, the way that it goes,
Workin' in the strangest ways.

Even though we could never seem to work things out,
I still love you just the same.
I miss your smile and that sparkle in your eye.
You're so beautiful, never change.

Chorus:
The way it is, the way that it goes
Happenin' day after day, yeah.
That's the way it is, the way that it goes,
Workin' in the strangest ways.

Bridge:
What it is, and what it was,
What shall be shall be, yeah.
Sometimes it happens in the strangest ways,
Sometimes it's hard to believe, yeah. (Do you believe?)
Do you believe, can you believe?

Chorus:
The way it is, the way that it goes,
Workin' in the strangest ways, yeah.

Now it really don't matter who gets the best of who.
It never did and never will.
It was never meant for it to be that way.
Why must it be that way at all?

Chorus:
The way it is, the way that it goes
Happenin' day after day, yeah.
That's the way it is, the way that it goes,
Workin' in the, workin' in the strangest ways.
That's the way it is, that's the way it is,
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes, yeah.
Yeah. That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes.
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes.
See it happen day after day, yeah, yeah,
Workin' in the strangest ways.

Can you believe, do you believe?
Can you believe, do you believe?
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes.
Yes it do.

Now, if you can imagine this, the whole world sharing one big kiss
These are thoughts all through my brain, that I daydream everyday
That I'm alive and well, and right now, I'm alive, I'm feeling...well
It's my life to live my way, so I'll keep daydreaming away
And who knows, maybe someday, it will all come true
And I will get my way, and we will live as one

I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream

And what cannot will be done, for every living thing under the sun
Forget color, forget race, and just be one big happy face
Among this sea of people, live among God's creatures, sharing love
That was sent down from above, here to share with one another
Father, brother, sister, mother, everybody sharing love, sharing love

I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream, this is my dream

What if...I close my eyes and everything will be alright
Here in my fantasy, living in harmony
Make my dream come alive

I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream
I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream

Now, if you can imagine this, the whole world sharing one big kiss
Take away the pain and hurt, make like heaven here on earth
Without reason to die, and given everlasting life for all

You can come around
And I will help find a way
If somethin's got you down
Just one of those days
That you find you are caught in the middle
Feelin' like there aint no way out
And it hurts you more than just a little
Got your head all full of doubts
I'll be your shelter from the rain
Until it's time to swim
Be there to help you share the pain
While never givin' in
We'll keep it unconditional

Chorus:
Come to me
If you need some one
And you're lookin' for some company
Come to me
And I'll be there

Aint nothing like a friend
No matter what you do
Who's always there till the end
It's like you got nothing to lose
What about getting lost in the shuffle
Locked out when you're wantin' in
Got caught gettin' caught in the struggle
Knock you down - I'll pick you up again
And those days turn into lonely nights
And those nights into lonely days
I may not get it right
But I'll help you find a way
We'll take it all day by day

Come to me
If you need some one
And you're lookin' for some company
If you need some one
Know that you can count on me
If you need some one
Know that you can come to me

If somethin' bursted your bubble
Oh baby, your fortress has crumbled
Well there aint nothing' wrong with bein' humble
Cause humble is good for your soul
We all need'everybody needs
Someone to hold

You can come around
I will help find away
If somethin's got you down
Just one of those days
Long days and lonely nights
Long nights and lonely days
May not get it right but I'll help get it right
Take it day by day

Chorus

What i feel is what i say,

I’m keeping it real so never mind the taste,



Cause i know there’s nothing deeper than truth,

So give me the reason not the excuse,

Even the things i can hardly believe,

Is something that i can use,



I’ll never be your alibi,

Or tell you what you want to hear,

Knowing that i’d rather die.

Than have my words be insincere,



I GOT NO GLORY,



So i’m gonna give it to you like it is,

If you want to hear the real story,

And not some candy coated lie



COME AND GET IT



To falsify don’t make no sense,

I’d rather deal with the consequences,



Cause i know there’s nothing deeper than truth,

So give me the reason not the excuse,

Even the things i can hardly believe,

Is something that i can use



I’ll never need an alibi,

Don’t sell it to me out of fear

I told you that i’d rather die.

Than have my words be insincere



I GOT NO GLORY,



So i’m gonna give it to you like it is,

If you want to hear the real story,

And not some candy coated lie



I GOT NO GLORY,



So i’m gonna give it to you like it is,

If you want to hear the real story,

And not some candy coated lie



COME AND GET IT

Tell me why there so much pain today
‘Cause taking lives is for the gain or so they say
I can't believe it but they feel this way
And that's the way of the world
Tell me why it takes a tragedy to see
To wake us up and bring us down on to our knees
With all the people suffering with diseases

And that the way
That's the way
That's the way of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel everybody's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

Teach the children what means to love
Show them why we can never give enough
Lets work together we can rise above

And change the ways
Change the ways
Change the ways of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

(Heaven)

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

(Heavens looking down) x3

The future's on it's way, the past is gone.
Old & rusted with your busted bones.
Break the crystal ball, you're on your own
Wipe away the fear of the unknown.
Chorus:
Now here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way. just livin' for today
it's in our sights and the tome is right,
for takin' a bow into the now.

Guilty of communication crimes.
Was it just a binge, or was I blind.
Overcoming opened up my mind.
Don't let the things from the past eat you up inside.
Chorus

Is it love that you break, or is it love that you make
Is it love were breaking, love were making, or love just wasting time.

Chorus twice.

Verse 1

Well i'd never break your heart, now tell me would you break mine
Re-wind and clean the slate, wipe away the hard times
Well i never did forsake you, and i never would
I got away from the common ground, just because i could
There was a shadow, following me around
Somehow i lost my way, that was then, take a look at me now

Chorus
For everything in life, there is a reason
Sometimes the reason i do, make it not so good

Verse 2

Seems like all that time away took me one step closer to my suicide
Spun around like i jus got played, all caught with the users and the crucified
A shining example of what you never wana be
The fame of teachers drowning in a wishing well
With no apology
Me and my shadow, no-body else around, somehow i lost my way, that was then take a look at me now

Chorus

Short Verse

Feels like the time is right for getting back to even
You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you!

Chorus

Short Verse

Feels like the time is right for getting back to even
You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you
Aint that enough for you
You are the reason i do
Aint that enough for you
ahhhh, take a look at me now

Mr. Trouble never hangs around,
when he hears this Mighty sound,

Here I come to save the day!
That means that Mighty Mouse is on the way!

Yes sir, when there is a wrong to right,
Mighty Mouse will join the fight!

On the sea or on the land,
He's got the situation well in hand!

Such a heavy price to pay,
all the time that I spent missing home,
and I try not to complain,
but sometimes it won't leave me alone,
and I think that I know myself better than anyone else.
Cause I'm me I ought to know,
what I want, what I need, what's inside of me.
Maybe something that took, to get out of my head
or took for the thrill,
the way that I dress, the way that I look, or the way that I pay the bills.

Cause your miles away, miles away,
how could you be so wrong,
cause your miles away, miles away,
how could you know the score.
All eyes on the stage now the glitter and the glow.
Move to the rhythm while striking a pose.
Music and melody words to a poem.
You think that you know me, you're not even close.

Though I'm living out my dreams,
wasn't long 'till I figured it out.
Nothin' ever comes for free
even here on a merry-go-round.
So you wanna take a ride,
rollin' and living the life,
cause you think I got it made.
Well in case you don't know my friend died today,
and it's tearing me apart.
If I knew what to say, don't know where to start.
I reach down in my heart and with paper and pen put it in a song.

'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong?
'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you know the score?
All eyes on the stage, all the glitter and glow.
Move to the rhythm while striking a pose.
Music and melody and words to a poem.
You think that you know me, You're not even close.

The pages have burned but they're written in stone.
Now what will become of us now nobody knows,
and the wheel keeps on turning and I rise and I fall,
and I'll try to get back but I'm lost in it all,
and I look all around and I see that it's gone.

Your miles away.
Miles away.

'Guitar Solo'

Your miles away.
Yeah your miles away.
Miles away.
Yeah your miles away.

In a world far from perfect
It's not always easy to connect
Where everything can be so complicated
I know that 'simply, you're the best'

I don't want nobody else, I only want you
Wanna keep you for myself, it's selfish, but true
I don't want anything, to ever come between us
'Cause I don't want nobody else

In a world far from perfect...still
One never knows what to expect, so tell me
what will I do?
So hard to think of you as 'dearly departed'
If only desperation could resurrect

'Cause I don't want nobody else, I only want you
Not some picture on a shelf, no...'cause that
won't carry me through
How does debilitated, find the strength to
make it through

'Cause I don't want nobody else, only you
Now I don't want nobody else, I only want you
And not some picture on a shelf, on no...
'Cause that won't carry me through
How does asphyxiated, ever find the breath to
make it through

'Cause I don't want nobody else,
I don't want nobody else,
only you, only you...

Wonderful lady

Such a beautiful baby

Gonna teach him what's wrong and what's right

Gonna show him direction

With love and affection

Gonna make his connection in life

But now things didn't go the way she thought they would

He think's God is the devil and evil is good

He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all



*CHORUS*

All you know is what you feel

You got to read between the lines

What is not and what is real

You got to learn how to recognize

What you're holdin' in your hands

What you see before your eyes

If you're gonna understand

You got to learn how to recognize



Heart is in danger

Well, love is a stranger

When the fear turns the anger to rage

It's not makin' any sense

'Cause you don't know the difference

Wouldn't know it if it slapped you in the face

Now it's all mixed up

It's all a big mistake

He don't know the difference between love and hate

He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all



*REPEAT CHORUS*



Why should I understand

When I could not comprehend what you say

Just shove it in my face

But if I cannot be made

I'm gonna understand



But now things didn't go the way she thought they would

He think's God is the devil and evil is good

He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all



*REPEAT CHORUS 2X*



Recognize

Did you think it wouldn't show, you're here with me, but I'm so alone
And now this house don't feel like home, I can't believe how much we've grown
So far apart, so far away, you just can't hide something as plain as day
I think it's safe to say, that's it's just no good

And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame

I know you think you're always right, and just because, you've got God in your life
But he don't appreciate the way you lied, he can't believe how hard you tried
To take me down, to take it all, hanging around, and making sure I fall
Then say it was me to blame, and I was, for trusting someone like you anyways

And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame

And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you ha

Once upon a day
Love walked away
Soon after I would learn
Only never to return
Feeling life was through
Like it was to you
Save me before I drown
Put me up on dryer ground

And I meant what I said
When I told you
I'd never love like this again
I wanna hold you in my arms
Wrap my legs around your pretty self

If only words could explain
I'd surely tell ya now
How I feel about everything
I'd never let you down
And you better believe
You can count on me
I couldn't ask for better friends
I'd never love like this again (oh no)

This love is real
So much I feel it
So deep inside
As though our hearts are synchronized
Since you became the color of my life
I'll never make it in black and white
Or pales or shades of gray
You come around then go away

And I meant every word I said
When I told you
I'd never love like this again
I wanna show you
You're in my heart
You're in my soul
You're all I wanna know

If only words could explain
I'd surely tell ya now
How I feel about everything
I'd never let you down
And you better believe
That you can count on me

What does that really mean?
I'd never know for sure
I don't know what to believe
I only know what I'm feeling
I'm going to a place
I've never been before
I just cant help myself
Can't help what I'm feeling

If only words could explain
If only words could explain
If only words could explain
If only words could explain
Baby how I feel

And I would have walked behind
I would have walked beside you
I would have told you every lie
I would have done that for you

Open your eyes sometime
Its funny how I adore you
Gonna get every line just fine
Ill even sing it for you now

There was a time I felt
The morning sun rose up for you
I would have whispered in your ear
I would make coffee for you
I would have crossed that line
I could have drawn it for you
Tell me that everything is fine
Couldnt you do that for me?

And wouldnt you say...
Ive been an idiot for you?
I couldnt shake you if I tried
I light a candle for you

Somehow the time flies by
And I havent done it for you
And I have a song to sing today
And I havent done that for you

Im getting along
Now that I found salvation
Now that I found salvation
Open your eyes, salvations now

Im getting along
Now that I found salvation
Now that I found salvation
Open your eyes, salvations now

Don't be surprised there once was a light
All scuffed up and blurry it raced over time
Don't even try getting away
Go get the cops
Why don't you stop thinking it over?
Thinking it over, thinking it over.

One at a time, I'll knock them down
All of your friends when they come around
Before you go out in Saturday's best
I want the house, the house is a mess
If I knock your lights out, would you feel out of place?
Why don't you stay, we've got tonight
Come back inside
When you're ready to fight
Why don't you stop, rolling yours eyes

I'm thinking it over, I'm thinking it over
Thinking it over, thinking it over
I left my round behind, behind
Tonight I'll strive, tonight, tonight

Thinking it over, thinking it over
Thinking it over, thinking it over
Thinking it over

Leave but come home soon
And can you get me something?
And I don't usually break many promises I make
It's just sometimes I could use a little shove

These are things I did for my love
These are things I did for my love
These are things I

Hey kid you go wrong
More times than you thought you could be
Running on streaks of no money I'll be
Too far to catch you up if you should need.

Because your heart's breaking, your mouth's shaking
Your eyes are full and high
For now I've got to look out for me.

Wasted....
Hey kid look around
Is your look in the mirror clearer than it used to be?
Still running on streaks of no money no sleep
And no friends to get you off if you should need.

Because your heart's breaking your mouth's shaking.
Your eyes are full and high. And the handshake was a mistake
When you wished you said goodbye
For now I've got to look out for me.

And life sure passes you by
when you're living in living rooms
Maybe you should find a place of your own
Maybe find another place.

Because your heart's breaking, your mouth's shaking
Your eyes are full and high

I'm in love with a lady
And I know the lady's in love with me
And she knows how to always be there
That's why she's willin' and ready

But now and then, every once in a while
Something inside of me, maybe inside of her...
Have you ever had one of those days
Where it all is going wrong
And it just can't seem to get along?
But through it all you know you're gonna make it.

Call it true love
Call it not meant to be
You can call it anything at all, you see.
Call it what you want
It's all the same to me.

Music means a lot to me
Like love, I make it when I can.
All I am is all I'll ever be
And that's just a boy from Texarkana.

But now and then oh, but once in a while,
They start treating me like some kind of superstar.
Need I mention, at the end of the day
What matters most of all
It's not where you're at
Or where you're comin' from
When all is said and done
You can call it...

Heavy metal, hard-core, pop, punk, or thrash
You can call it anything, it don't matter to me
Call it what you want
It's all music to me

Call it communism, call it free
Some call the ocean what some call the sea
Call it what you want
That doesn't change a thing for me
Not a thing...

Baby's lyin' in the cradle
Universe is all within his reach
Wearin' rags or mink and sable
Needs a guidin' hand or it's out on the streets

Now momma's out
She's never at home
Daddy's taking care of business
He's out on the road
It's rainin' cats and dogs
But the child within us all must face the storm

Call it individuality
Some call it fate, others reality
Call it what you want
It doesn't matter to me

Call it communism, call it free
Some call the ocean what some call the sea
Call it what you want
That doesn't change a thing for me
Not a thing!

Young girl sweet as candy, a-turnin' hearts to stone.
She'll catch a young man's fancy. A-love 'em, leave 'em alone.
I should-a seen it comin'. She took me for a ride.
Still feel the fire burnin'. That's why I can't...

...Stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
Can't stop fallin'. Ah.
I can't stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't win.
For losin'.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
Can't stop fallin'.
I'm a fool for you.

Lovin' after midnight, a shadow on the run.
By the time ya realize, the damage has been done.
You better keep your distance, if ya know what's good for you.
Me, I got no resistance. And that's why I can't... (To Chorus)

Yeah, I'm a fool for you.
I'm a fool for you. Ow!

Little Miss "Cotton Candy" still turnin' hearts to stone.
Candy's fine and dandy, but then, sex don't rot your teeth
I never seen it comin'. She took by surprise.
Still feed the fire burnin'. That's why I can't... (To Chorus)

Yeah, I'm a fool for you. Ooh.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
I can't stop. I can't stop fallin' for your love. Oh. Oh.
