Tell me the truth sir, someone just bought it Say mr. whispers!

How to be a millionaire Tell me! tell me! How to be a millionaire! Millionaire! Billionaire! Trillionaire! Hardly surprising if you might consider Loyalties go to the highest of bidders What's my opinion? I'd give you ten to one Give me a million, a franchise on fun But there are millions who often get nowhere And there's just one secret I think you should share Maybe these luxuries can only compensate For all the cards you were dealt at the hands of fate So tell me Tell me! tell me! How to be a millionaire Tell me! tell me! How to be a millionaire! Who wants to be millionaire? I do! - I don't! - I do! Who wants to be millionaire? I do! - I don't!

Lying in a lot. Red raincoats and rifles, An epidemic has been stopped. Scientist speaks what are you wondering about? He got where he is by turning Lab mice inside out. The things we do And have to do The things I do for you And what you do for me too The "yeah, but I..." And any other excuse And if you take it for given Then what's the use All his possessions Around him in his house, Lying beside him his Companion and his spouse. And in the morning He dress and go to hell. All activated by A little timer bell. |

It's cold and it never waits Frozen breath and frostbite Stacked, unopen crates You never loved your frozen freight Perishables and bloodless meat You rolling snowball soul of sleet You never wait.... You roll across desert And clack across the sand Though snakes may fry outside Flowers crumble petrified in your hand Your heart's a paid-off porter You lied to spare your soul With one are you bow your brains out With the other you dig the hole You never loved your frozen freight......

Been a whole lot easier since the bitch left town
Been a whole lot happier without her face around Nobody upstairs gonna stomp and shout, Nobody at the back door gonna throw my laundry out She hold the shotgun while you do-si-do She want one man made of Hercules and Cyrano Been a whole lot easier since the bitch is gone Little miss, Little miss can't be wrong Little miss, Little miss, Little miss can't be wrong Ain't nobody gonna bow no more when you sound your gong. Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong What'cha gonna do to get into another one of these rock 'n' roll songs? Other peoples' thoughts they ain't your hand-me-downs Would it be so bad to simply turn around You cook so well, all nice and French You do you brain surgery too, with a monkey wrench Little miss, Little miss, Little miss can't be wrong... I hope those cigarettes gonna make you cough Hope you hear this song and it pissed you off I take that back I hope your doing fine And if I had a dollar I might give you ninety-nine Little miss, Little miss, Little miss can't be wrong.... |

Your heart is a refrigerator car
It's cold and it never waits Frozen breath and frostbite Stacked, unopen crates You never loved your frozen freight Perishables and bloodless meat You rolling snowball soul of sleet You never wait... You roll across desert And clack across the sand Though snakes may fry outside Flowers crumble petrified in your hand Your heart's a paid-off porter You lied to spare your soul With one are you bow your brains out With the other you dig the hole You never loved your frozen freight... Grey ice in your hinges Sliding doors shut frozen locked Airtight every tiny hole With hard white putty blocked You never loved your frozen freight... |

Take the lowest common denominator,
The tiniest grain of sand. Like the first digit of our fingers Points back to the whole hand. Follow the spear flight Hurled with any lateral Throw it on the clifftop Weaves over the battle Pill of wax descending the candle Late at night, You'd feel a rise at this mantle The catalyst or the detonator The place where it all again The bottom floor of the elevator, The grandfather of the middleman. Follow the spear flight Hurled with any lateral Throw it on the clifftop Weaves over the battle Pill of wax descending the candle Late at night, You'd feel a rise at this mantle Waxing givers Slip between the sheets of minds. Rosetta stone Like the skeleton Reassembled bone by bone by bone by bone Follow the spear flight Hurled with any lateral Throw it on the cliff top Weaves over the battle Pill of wax descending the candle Late at night, You'd feel a rise at this mantle |

Moonlight through the chicken wire humming window pane
Lukewarm water gasping down a rusty drane Big towns in need of mending, streetlights shake toothsome beams Denim shadows shuffle in between the beams Different strokes for different folks so Mind your manner and easy on the ethnic jokes It's a dumb bell curve you're trying to tally All the way down to Shinbone Alley Streets are metacarpal and flesh of asphalt calm Buildings rise like fingers from a concrete palm Yellow lit apartment trickle through the drapes Windows frame each history hidden even from the fire escapes Sullen winter sparrow lands wing to expanse of grey Six-thirty-two in the morning on Thanksgiving day And the bums they hit the corners The thunder kids rub their money And the crack addicts stare at the snowflakes zig zagging Down to the greet Jones [CHORUS] Seventy-two on the sour day, your bare feet sweep the parquet And the lights u sprey white slanting past the microwave Knuckles to eyeballs and elbows on the table Spend the day gazing from your winter gable |

There's a penny on the sidewalk, But you stepped on a crack Mama's singing in the kitchen, But she's clutchin' her back There's a funny wind a-blowin' Down the rays you your hair Everybody doin' cartwheels baby, But you're still in bed You can tell me it's your nature, girl But I don't buy that I can tell you like to lie Just by the tilt of your hat One guy's laughing, One guy's weeping, One guy's twitchin' And you lay sleeping Tell me why you sleeping baby One guy's laughing, mama, One guy's weeping, One guy's twitchin' down on the floor, mama Tell me why you sleeping baby I've been talking in the kitchen, And I'm skinning a cat I know you you want to see my jackknife, But I'm using a bat Put the mutton on the table, There's a fork by your plate Someone told me you're starving, But I know you just ate. One guy's laughing, One guy's weeping, One guy's twitchin' And you lay sleepin' |

When I hear that train a-coming from the junction
Troublin' my mind is it's favorite function. It makes that crying on that old air horn Middle of the night, I can hear it mourn The world is a stone hanging in the night The train's a woman and she leaves behind a light Love is gone, I mean washed out in the rain Leaving town and mumbling something 'bout a train Oh, about a train My head is full of sky and my boots are full of ocean And stolen designs for perpetual motion Love scarred, shattered, tattered, and unfolding Silent man, he won't tell me what it is What it is he's holding The world is a stone hanging in the night The train's a woman and she leaves behind a light Love is gone, I mean washed out by the rain Leaving town and mumbling something 'bout a train My heart is a stone, and my head is a canyon Far off lonely home is my only companion Love is gone, I mean washed out in the rain Leaving town, mumbling something about a train |

The cheese is full of mold Oh, come into the fold with me Global domination While it sparks my imagination It kills the vegetation Ant its not my cup of tea The stairs are high and winding My brother is divining The empire is declining But the wine is old Its never sweet enough And a little too tough And they play a bit too rough And they talk a little bit too cold Say theres another color Just say it on a bet You know its true Though you havent heard it yet Theyre playing it for keeps Like pieces on a board You know its true Though you havent heard before Welcome to the decline Its going just fine Its good for the wine And its good for the forces You can run but you cant hide And beggars would ride If they had the horses If wishes were horses Beggars would ride If wishes were horses Beggars would ride If wishes were horses Beggars would ride If wishes were horses Oh, beggars would ride Beggars would ride The carousel is burning The models eyes are yearning The tables arent turning But the lunch is free And its never cheap enough And its always the same stuff And they forever call your bluff And forever get their fee Say theres another color..... There is no limitation Set upon this nation What is our station And relationship? What about the pollution And the constitution? What is the purpose Of this burning branch I grip?

The more things change, the more they stay the same.
And the more it rains, the less I know. Why do these foreign skies change the way home? Why do these hotel walls hang their strangeness on my own? Oh mama, I'm gonna roll, with a truckload of hurt. These wheels have rolled across I don't know how many bags of dirt Barefoot in the back of the van, toss an arcing empty soda can. Long ways, long days, waitresses frayed and underpaid we were harried and waylaid. We arrived that evening and not a moment too soon. Finding a place it was, you may say, cool. These sketches of an infinite architecture are ink and unconfirmed conjecture A dream glimpse of the puppeteer's knuckle a fragment of a fraction of a gesture Oh mama, I'm gonna roll, with a truckload of hurt.

Indifferent minds seek nothing,
They wait to be told They never stop talkin' The way you talk to me You give me the blues I feel like walkin' Expressions that the stories gave Share your thoughts till they walk away Revealing tales of kings and pawns, Tall grass, dragons and mountain songs Break the thread of indifference They'll suck the wind right from your soul To never listen to the voice of memory Is to die waiting for nothing I'd rather kiss the empty blue than to stand here and waiting forever on you. On a trip in this place called time, Qhere no one lives, no one to find Quiet streams of life gone by Roll down the face of lovers And in the early morning tears We cry Into each other Sew the thread of indifference It rolls on and on and on Never listen to the voice of memory Is to die waiting for nothing |
