Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you I'm still
alright to smile Girl, I think about you evryday now Was a time when I wasn't
sure But you set my mind at ease There is no doubt You're in my heart now Said,
woman, take it slow It'll work itself out fine All we need is just a little
patience Said, sugar, make it slow And we come together fine All we need is just
a little patience I sit here on the stairs 'Cause I'd rather be alone If I can't
have you right now I'll wait, dear Sometimes I get so tense But I can't speed up
the time But you know, love There's one more thing to consider Said, woman, take
it slow And things will be just fine If you and I just use a little patience
Said, sugar, take the time 'Cause the lights are shining bright You and I've got
what it takes to make it, We won't fake it, I'll never break it 'cause I can't
take it ...little patience, Need a little patience, yeah Just a little patience,
yeah Some more patience, Need some patience, Could use some patience, yeah Gotta
have some patience, yeah All it takes is patience, Just a little patience Is all
we need I been walkin' the streets at night Just tryin' to get it right Hard to
see with so many around You know I don't like Being stuck in a crowd And the
streets don't change But baby the names I ain't got time for the game 'Cause I
need you Yeah, yeah, but I need you Oo, I need you Whoa, I need you Oo, all this
time
When I look into your eyes I can see a
love restrained But darlin' when I hold you Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever And we both know hearts can change And it's hard to
hold a candle In the cold November rain We've been through this such a long long
time Just tryin' to kill the pain But lovers always come and lovers always go An
no one's really sure who's lettin' go today Walking away If we could take the
time To lay it on the line I could rest my head Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine So if you want to love me Then darlin' don't refrain Or I'll just end
up walkin' In the cold November rain Do you need some time...on your own Do you
need some time...all alone Everybody needs some time... on their own Don't you
know you need some time... All alone I know it's hard to keep an open heart When
even friends seem out to harm you But if you could heal a broken heart Wouldn't
time be out to charm you Sometimes I need some time...on my own Sometimes I need
some time...all alone Everybody needs some time... on their own Don't you know
you need some time... All alone And when your fears subside And shadows still
remain I know that you can love me When there's no one left to blame So never
mind the darkness We still can find a way 'Cause nothin' lasts forever Even cold
November rain Don't ya think that you need somebody Don't ya think that you need
someone Everybody needs somebody You're not the only one You're not the only one
I used to love her, but I had to kill her I
used to love her, yeah but I had to kill her I had to put her six feet under And

her I used to love her, ooh, yeah but I had to kill her I knew I'd miss her so I
had to keep her She's buried right in my backyard, oh, yeah She bitched so much,

touch me 'Cause I got somethin' I been buildin' up inside For so fuckin' long

troubles exceed They push me in a corner just to get me to fight but They won't
touch me They preach and yell and fight all night You can't tell me I lose my

She's got a smile that it seems to me Reminds me of childhood
memories Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky Now and then when
I see her face She takes me away to that special place And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry Sweet child o' mine Sweet love of mine She's got
eyes of the bluest skies As if they thought of rain I hate to look into those
eyes And see an ounce of pain Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place Where as
a child I'd hide And pray for the thunder And the rain To quietly pass me by
Where do we go Where do we go now Where do we go
"What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men
you just can't reach... So, you get what we had here last week, Which is the way
he wants it! Well, he gets it! N' I don't like it any more than you men." *
Look at your young men fighting Look at your women crying Look at your young men
dying The way they've always done before Look at the hate we're breeding Look at
the fear we're feeding Look at the lives we're leading The way we've always done
before My hands are tied The billions shift from side to side And the wars go on
with bring-one pride For the love of God and our human rights And all these
things are swept aside By bloody hands time can't deny And are washed away by
your genocide And history hides the lies of our civil wars D'you wear a black
armband When they shot the man who said "Peace could last forever" And
in my first memories They shot Kennedy I went numb when I learned to see So I
never fell for Vietnam We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all That you can't
trust freedom When it's not in your hands When everybody's fightin' For their
promised land And I don't need your civil war It feeds the rich while it buries
the poor Your power hungry sellin' soldiers In a human grocery store Ain't that
fresh I don't need your civil war Look at the shoes your filling Look at the
blood we're spilling Look at the world we're killing The way we've always done
before Look in the doubt we've wallowed Look at the leaders we've followed Look
at the lies we've swallowed And I don't want to hear no more My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind But still the wars go on as the years go
by With no love of God or human rights 'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized Who carry the cross of homicide And history
bears the scars of our civil wars "We practice selective annihilation of
mayors and government officials for example to create a vacuum then we fill that
vacuum as popular war advances Peace is closer" ** I don't need one more
war Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway *Strother Martin-from the film Cool Hand Luke

Yesterday, there was so many things I was never told Now that
I'm startin' to learn I feel I'm growin' old Cause yesterday's got nothin' for
me Old pictures that I 'll always see Time just fades the pages In my book of
memories Prayers in my pocket And no hand in destiny I'll keep on movin' along
With no time to plant my feet Cause yesterday's got nothin's for me Old pictures
that I'll always see Some things could be better If we'd all just let them be
Yesterday there were so many things I was never shown Suddenly this time I found
I'm on the streets and I'm all alone Yesterday's got nothin' for me Old pictures
that I'll always see I ain't got time To reminisce old novel ties Yesterday's
got nothin' for me Yesterday's got nothin' for me Yesterday's got nothin' for me
Yesterday
Mama take this badge from me I can't use it anymore It's
getting dark too dark to see Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door Mama
put my guns in the ground I can't shoot them anymore That cold black cloud is
comin' down Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door "You just better start
sniffin' your own rank Subjugation jack 'cause it's just You against your
tattered libido, the bank and The mortician, forever man and it Wouldn't be luck
if you could get out of life alive"
How could she look so fine How could it be she might be mine
How could she be so cool I've been taken for a fool So many times It's a story
of a man Who works as hard as he can Just to be a man who stands on his own But
the book always burns As the story takes it turn An leaves a broken man How
could she be so cool How could she be so fine I owe a favor to a friend My
friends they always come through for me- If you could only live my life You
could see the difference you make to me- To me I'd look right up at night And
all I'd see was darkness Now I see the stars alright I wanna reach right up and
grab one for you When the lights went down in your house Yeah that made me happy
The sweat I make for you Yeah...I think you know where that comes from How could
she look so good How could she be so fine How could she be so cool How could it
be she might be mine
When you're talkin to yourself And nobody's home You can
fool yourself You came in this world alone So nobody ever told you baby How it
was gonna be So what'll happen to you baby Guess we'll have to wait and see Old
at heart but I'm only 28 And I'm much too young To let love break my heart Young
at heart but it's getting much too late To find ourselves so far apart I don't
know how you're s'posed to find me lately An what more could tou ask from me How
could you say that I never needed you When you took everything Said you took
everything from me Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait When no one I know
can seem to help me now Old at heart but I musn't hesitate If I'm to find my own
way out Still talkin' to myself And nobody's home So nobody ever told us baby
How it was gonna be So what'll happen to us baby Guess we'll have to wait and
see When I find out all the reasons Maybe I'll find another way Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life Maybe I'll get it right next time An
now that you've been broken down Got your head out of the clouds You're back
down on the ground And you don't talk so loud An you don't walk so proud Any
more, and what for Well I jumped into the river Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone If it doesn't show give it time To
read between the lines 'Cause I see the storm getting closer And the waves they
get so high Seems everything we've ever known's here Why must it drift away and
die I'll never find anyone to replace you Guess I'll have to make it thru, this
time- Oh this time without you I knew the storm was getting closer And all my
friends said I was high But everything we've ever known's here I never wanted it
to die
I'm a cold heartbreaker Fit ta burn and I'll rip your heart in
two An I'll leave you lyin' on the bed I'll be out the door before ya wake It's
nuthin' new ta you 'Cause I think we've seen that movie too 'Cause you could be
mine But you're way out of line With your bitch slap rappin' And your cocaine
tongue You get nuthin' done I said you could be mine Now holidays come and then
they go It's nothin' new today Collect another memory When I come home late at
night Don't ask me where I've been Just count your stars I'm home again You've
gone sketchin' too many times Why don't ya give it a rest Why must you find
Another reason to cry While you're breakin' down my back n' I been rackin' out
my brain It don't matter how we make it 'Cause it always ends the same You can
push it for more mileage But your flaps r' wearin' thin And I could sleep on it
'til mornin' But this nightmare never ends Don't forget to call my lawyers With
ridiculous demands An you can take the pity so far But it's more than I can
stand 'Cause this couchtrip's gettin' older Tell me how long has it been 'Cause
5 years is forever An you haven't grown up yet
I've been lookin' for a trace Lookin' for a heart Lookin'
for a lover in a world That's much too dark Because you don't want my love, no,

You better turn me on tonight I see you standin' Standin' on your own It's such
a lonely place for you For you to be If you need a shoulder Or if you need a
friend I'll be here standing Until the bitter end No one needs the sorrow No one
needs the pain I hate to see you Walking out there Out in the rain So don't
chastise me Or think I, I mean you harm Of those that take you Leave you strung
out Much too far baby-yeah Don't ever leave me Say you'll always be there All I
ever wanted Was for you To know that I care
I'm reckless and feelin' no pain You know I've got no need to
control Livin' with the danger I'm always on the edge now With million dollar
visions that I hold Livin' like this never ever Tore my life apart I know how to

I don't need your advice I lead a reckless life And you know it's my only vice
She hit town like a rose in bloom Smellin' sweet, said
sweet perfume The color faded and the petals died Down in the city, no one cried
In the streets, the garbage lies Protected by a million flies The roaches so big
You know that they got bones They moved in and made a tenement home I said nice
boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll I'm not a nice
boy! Sweet sixteen she was fresh and clean Wanted so bad to be part of the scene
She met the man and she did the smack Paid the price layin' flat on her back
Wanted so bad just to please the boys They ended up just being a toy Played so
hard burned her life away Lies were told no promises made You know nice boys
don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll I'm not a nice boy
and I never was! Young and fresh when she hit town Hot for kicks just to get
around But now she lays in a filthy room She kills the pain with a flick and a
spoon And in the streets the garbage lies Protected by a million flies You know
the roaches so big You know that they got bones Moved in and made a tenement
home Nice boys don't play rock and roll I bet you mama said Nice boys don't play
rock and roll
You pack your bags and you move to the city There's

many eyes are on me Right next door to hell I got nowhere else to be Right next
door to hell Feels like the walls are closing in on me My mamma never really
said much to me She was much too young and scared ta be Hell "Freud"
might say that's what I need But all I really ever get is greed An most my
friends they feel the same Hell we don't even have ourselves to blame But times
are hard and thrills are cheaper As your arms get shorter Your pockets get
deeper Right next door to hell I never thought this is where I'd be Right next
door to hell Thinkin' time'll stand still for me Fuck you Bitch Not bad kids
just stupid ones Yeah we thought we'd own the world An gettin' used was havin'
fun I said we're not sad kids just lucid ones yeah Flowin' through life not

handle Time's too much for me It drives me up the walls Drives me out of my mind

You'll feel better tomorrow Come the morning light now baby Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight Baby maybe someday
If we could see tomorrow What of your plans No one can live in
sorrow Ask all your friends Times that you took in stride They're back in demand
I was the one who's washing Blood off your hands Don't you cry tonight I still
love you baby Don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight There's a heaven above
you baby And don't you cry tonight I know the things you wanted They're not what
you have With all the people talkin' It's drivin' you mad If I was standin' by
you How would you feel Knowing your love's decided And all love is real I
thought I could live in your world As years all went by With all the voices I've
heard Something has died And when you're in need of someone My heart won't deny
you So many seem so lonely With no one left to cry to baby There's a heaven
above you baby And don't you cry Don't you ever cry Don't you cry tonight Baby
maybe someday Don't you cry Don't you ever cry Don't you cry Tonight
I don't have plans and schemes, And I don't have hopes and
dreams. I don't have anything, Since I don't have you. And I don't have fond
desires, and I don't have happy hours. I don't have anything, Since I don't have
you. Happiness, and I guess, I never will again. When you walked out on me, In
walked ol' misery, And he's been here since then. Yeah, we're fucked! I don't
have love to share, And I don't have one who cares. I don't have anything, Since
I don't have you.
You wan'da step into my world It's a sociopsychotic state of
bliss You've been delayed in the real world How many times have you hit and
missed? You cat-scan shows disfiguration I wanna laugh myself to death With a
misfired synapse With a bent configuration I'll hold the line while you gasp for
breath You wanna talk to me So talk to me You wanna talk to me You can't talk to
me You don't understand your sex You ain't been mindfucked yet Let's do it Oh my
distorted smile Guess what I'm doing now
Kickin' back in the shadows Got no need for the light Who's
sorry now old timer Look at how you've spent your life Scroungin' for change To
put some money in your pocket My how scratch does burn Laughin' at the suckers
as you pissed it away But I got the time and I got the muscle I got the need to
lay it all on the line I ain't afraid of your smoke screen hustle It's a perfect
crime Goddamn it it's a perfect crime Motherfucker it's a perfect crime I said
it's perfect Keep the demons down And drag the skeletons out I got a blind man
followin' me in chains I said he's fun to watch When the world has stopped An I
think he's got somethin' to say "You wanna fuck with me, don't fuck with me
'Cause I'm what you'll be so don't fuck with me If you had better sense You'd
step aside from the bad side of me Don't fuck wit'da bad side o' me Stay away
from the bad side o' me Don't fuck wit'da bad side" T Minus 1:09 and
counting Ostracized but that's all right I was thinkin' about somethin' myself
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 Call on everybody who's got last rites Said it's better if you
locked 'em away Runnin' through the visions at the speed of light Won't ya let
me be Motherfucker just let me be Goddamn it better let me be Don't ya know ya
better let me be...
I tried so hard just to get through to you But your head's so
far From the realness of truth Was it just a come on in the dark Wasn't meant to
last long I think you've worn your welcome honey I'll just see you along as I
sing you this song Time can pass slowly, Things always change You day's been
numbered And I've read your last page You was just a temporary lover Honey you
ain't the first Lots of others came before you woman Said but you been the worst
Sa' you been the worst So goodbye to you girl So long, farewell I can't hear you
cryin' Your jivin's been hell So look for me walkin' Down your street at night
I'll be in with another Deep down inside
I can't stop thinkin' Thinking 'bout sinkin' Sinkin'
down into my bed I call my mother She's just a cunt now She said I'm sick in the
head She said you ain't special So who you foolin' Don't try ta give me a line
But I can't stop thinkin' 'bout Seein' ya one more time (Oh no) But I already
left you And you're better off left behind It's a bad obsession It's always
messin' It's always messin' my mind It's a bad obsession It's always messin'
It's always messin' my mind Too bad you're fucked up I used to be wasted Always
tried to take it Take it down into my vein I call the doctor He's just another
He said I'm sick in the brain He said you ain't special So who you foolin' Don't
try ta give me a line But I can't stop thinkin' 'bout Doin' it one more time (Oh
no) But I already left you And you're better off left behind (Oh yeah) So bad...
Boy It's a It's a Heads up It's a bad obsession It's always messin' It's always
messin' my mind Maybe you'll do better next time Punk!!
Oh baby, pretty baby Oh honey, you let me down honey I ain't
playin' childhood games no more I said it's time for me to even the score So
stake your claim, your claim to fame But baby call another name When you feel
the fire, And taste the flame Back off, back off bitch Down in the gutter dyin'
in the ditch You better back off, back off bitch Face of an angel with the love
of a witch Back off, back off bitch Back off, back off bitch Makin' love, cheap
heartbreaker, Broken backed, nasty ballbreaker, Stay out of my bed, outta my
head If it's lovin' you, I'm better off dead Emotions ripped, gone on a binge
Life lipped, I said you're off the hinge Tellin' lies of such fame and glory I
don't even wanna hear your story Back off, back off bitch It's time to burn-burn
the witch Back off, back off bitch Hey wha'd'ya think he's tryin' to say there,
anyway? I think it's something each person's s'posed to take In their own
special way Fucking bitch
Found a head and an arm in da garbage can Don't know why I'm
here Livin' on the run for oh so long I gotta go collect Double talkin' jive Get
the money motherfucker 'Cause I got no more patience Double talkin' -I got (lies)-
No more patience man Back in town an'a all new friends They sayin' how ya been?
Fucked up and outta place That's how I felt back then Double talkin' jive Get
the money motherfucker 'Cause I got no more patience Double talkin' -I got (lies)-
No more patience man You dig what I'm sayin'?!
You know you're all alone Your friends they aren't at home
Everybody's gone to the garden As you look into the trees You can look but you
don't see The flowers seem to tease you at the garden Everybody's there, but you
don't seem to care What's it with you man, and this garden Turned into my worst
phobia, A crazy man's utopia If you're lost no one can show ya, But it sure was
glad to know ya Only poor boys take a chance, On the garden's song and dance,
Feel her flowers as they wrap around, But only smart boys do without You can
find it all inside No need to wrestle with your pride No you ain't losin' your
mind You're just in the garden They can lead you to yourself Or you can throw it
on the shelf But you know you can look inside For the garden I wasn't really
scared Lost my virginity there, To a gypsy with blond hair But now no one seems
to care Like a mouse inside a maze Wandering round 4 daze With a smile upon my
face, I never wanna leave this place Bye bye, so long, bye bye It's glad to know
ya Bye bye Bye bye Aw... so long
It's a critical solution And the east coast got the blues It's
a mass of confusion Like the lies they sell to you You got a glass jawed
toothache Of a mental disease An they be runnin' round back See 'em line up on
their knees 'Cause the kiss ass sycophants Throwin' penance at your feet When
they got nowhere to go Watch 'em come in off the streets While they're bangin'
out front Inside their slammin' to the cruch Go on an throw me to the lions And
the whole damn screamin' bunch 'Cause the pissed-off rip-offs 'R' everywhere you
turn Tell me how a generation's Ever s'posed to learn This fire is burnin' And
it's out of control It's not a problem you can stop It's rock n' roll I read it
on a wall It went straight to my head It said "Dance to the tension Of a
world on edge" We got racial violence And who'll cast the first stone And
sex is used anyway it can be Sometimes when I look out It's hard to see the day
It's a feelin' you can have it It's not mine to take away Lost in the garden of
Eden Said we're lost in the garden of Eden And there's no one's gonna believe
this But we're lost in the garden of Eden Looking through this point of view
There's no way I'm gonna fit in Don't ya tell me what my eyes see Don't ya tell
me who to believe in I ain't superstitious But I know when somethin's wrong I've
been draggin' my heels With a bitch called hope Let the undercurrent drag me
along Most organized religions Make a mockery of humanity Our governments are
dangerous and out of control The garden of Eden is just another graveyard Said
if they had someone to buy it Said I'm sure they'd sell my soul (An we ain't
talkin' about no poison apple Or some missin' rib ya hear)
Don't damn me When I speak a piece of my mind 'Cause silence
isn't golden When I'm holding it inside 'Cause I've been where I have been An I've
seen what I have seen I put the pen to the paper 'Cause it's all a part of me Be
it a song or casual conversation To hold my tongue speaks Of quiet reservations
Your words once heard They can place you in a faction My words may disturb But
at least there's a reaction Sometimes I wanna kill Sometimes I wanna die
Sometimes I wanna destroy Sometimes I wanna cry Sometimes I could get even
Sometimes I could give up Sometimes I could give Sometimes I never give a fuck
It's only for a while I hope you understand I never wanted this to happen Didn't
want to be a man So I hid inside my world I took what I could find I cried when
I was lonely I fell down when I was blind How can I ever satisfy you An how can
I ever make you see That deep inside we're all somebody An it don't matter who
you wanna be But now I gotta smile I hope you comprehend For this man can say it
happened 'Cause this child has been condemned So I stepped into your world I
kicked you in the mind An I'm the only witness To the nature of my crime But
look at what we've done To the innocent and young Whoa listen to who's talking
'Cause we're not the only ones The trash collected by the eyes And dumped into
the brain Said it tears into our conscious thoughts You tell me who's to blame I
know you don't wanna hear me cryin' An I know you don't wanna hear me deny That
your satisfaction lies in your illusions But your delusions are yours and not
mine We take for granted we know the whole story We judge a book by its cover
And read what we want Between selected lines Don't hail me An don't idolize the
ink Or I've failed in my intentions Can you find the missing link Your only
validation is living your own life Vicarious existence is a fucking waste of
time So I send this song to the offended I said what I meant and I've never
pretended As so many others do intending just to please If I damned your point
of view Could you turn the other cheek Don't damn me I said don't damn me I said
don't hail me Don't damn me
Is she really going out with him? I got a feeling inside
of me, It's kinda strange, like a stormy sea I don't know why, I don't know why
I guess these things've gotta be I got a new rose, I got it good Yes, I knew
that I always would I can't stop to mess around I got a brand new rose in town
See the sun, see the sunny skies Don't get too close, it'll burn your eyes Don't
you run away that way Come back another day I never thought this could happen to
me I'm a strange washing machine I never served somebody this sane I'll never,
never, never be too late
All I need is some inspiration Before I do somebody some harm
I feel just like a vegetable Down here on the farm Nobody comes to see me Nobody
here to turn me on I ain't even got a lover Down here on the farm They told me
to get healthy They told me to get some sun But boredom eats me like cancer Down
here on the farm Drinking lemonade shanty Ain't no body gonna do me harm But I'm
like a fish out of water Down here on the farm I write a thousand letters 'til
my fingers all gone numb But I never see no postman Down here on the farm I call
my baby on the telephone I say come down and have some fun But she knows what
the score is Down here on the farm I can't fall in love with a wheat field I can't
fall in love with a barn When everything smells like horse shit Down here on the
farm Blue skies and swimming pools Add so much charm But I'd rather be back in
Soho Than down here on the farm On the fucking farm! Are you born in a fucking
barn or what? Baaaaaa! Hold still!
It doesn't pay to try, All the smart boys know why, It doesn't
mean, I didn't try, I just never know, why. It's isn't 'cause I'm all alone Oh,
baby, you're not home. And when I'm home Big deal, I'm still alone. It's so
restless, I am, Beat my head against a pole Try to knock some sense, down 'side
my bones. And even though it don't show, Those guys are so old. Can't put your
arms around a memory, Can't put your arms around a memory, Can't put your arms
around a memory. Don't try Don't try You're just a basket case. And you got no
name. Could you live with me? Go on and say. And even though it don't show Those
guys are so old.
