Lyrics

Under Lock and Key:
There's something crazy, something strange about
The way I'm lazy and the way I go about
Giving my time and how I reason
Do all my problems have to do with how I reason
Don't feel bad if you haven't figured out
Cause I'm not mad there's really no need to shout
That you would ever in your life be so frustrated

If you knew what was good for you
You'd lock me up and throw away the key
You don't need me you never will
You never did as far as I can tell

Should I wake up and explain myself to you
Or should I not care and sleep the whole day thru
Finding the sense in everything
Is like going thru my head to find a diamond ring
Living day by day is all that I can say
Something someone to beleive in might be the other way
We can't know for sure until we open the door
Inherent choices, choices I can't take anymore



 Tomorrow's Another Day
I don't want to let my life fly by
Do you ever stop, stop to wonder why?

And time flies by
When everything is ok
It just turns out that life ain't that way
Big decisions overwhelm me and I know
nothing's free

When I don't think of, think about much
 People die and we don't know why
 I could use some understanding
Human contact, sign that contract

 I don't want to let my life fly by
Did you ever stop to wonder why-ever stop to
wonder, wonder why?

 And time stands still when no one understands you
When you don't quite understand yourself
But just know this that God is faithful
Even if you don't have faith yourself
There's nothing quite like being sure of
 What's inside your heart
 It's mostly simple but not so easy
To know just where to start

 Today didn't have to be this way
Tomorrow is another day
Another chance to make things right
A chance to make sense of last night

A chance to fully live your life
I don't want to, I don't want to, you don't want to



The Final Slowdance
You're taking all the space up in my head
With all the things that we could do and
All the things that could be said
It's hard for me to understand
The way I feel about you and the way it
Made me feel to hold your hand

 Am I running out of time or am I at the
 starting line?
 I know I missed the mark yet I just need some
sort of sign

My words don't come out easily
So I will tell you honestly
 No one wants to spend
Eternity alone....



 

     I'm OK, You're OK
 What's going on tonight? Is everything alright?
I hope that nothing's wrong. I haven't seen you
in so long.

 I'm away, you're here to stay and I'm away and
 you're ok
  You're here to stay and I'm away, you're here to
stay and I'm ok

 What exactly do you do, when I'm not with you?
What exactly do you say, all the time that I'm away?

You tell me nothing's wrong
Seems like I've been gone oh so long
 Nothing seems to have changed
Yet the familiar things seem all so strange


     Cold and Alone
 I know I'm mean but I'm real sorry
I didn't mean to make you cry
 I feel so bad by then it's too late
You're hurt, I'm mad, is this goodbye?

 I've dug down far too deep now
 I've dug down far I'm losing sleep

You know it's hard you know I'm trying
 To understand to do what's right
 I don't like to see you crying
 I don't like it when we fight

I've dug down far too deep now
 I've dug down deep I'm losing

Cold and all alone
 Out there on your own
 Cold and all alone
 Living on your own


Party my house, be there
It's about time for a party at my house
And it wouldn't be the same without you
No not at all as I recall
You've got what I need

Bring along yourself and don't forget that smile
 And plan on staying a while
Till summer turns to fall, as I recall
You've got what I need

 You said you were leaving
I said you were crazy
You said that you have some things to do

I'll see you in a while
 And don't forget that smile
What else could there possibly be to do?



 The Downfall Of Western Civilization
What do you call yourself?
What did you call me?

Excuse me but you don't know me
 And I sure don't know you neither

Who are you and where did you go?
You think you know but you, just don't know



 Invitation To Understanding
Come on understanding visit me for once today
I'll be grateful, you don't even have to stay
 It must be hard for you to get over to my
 side of town
 I know there's many people like me to be found

If you come knockin' at my door
And I am not around
Foolishness came by and we're downtown
Please don't leave
 Please come on in and make yourself at home
 I know you're probably used to being alone

Everyone keeps telling me you're something that
 you're not
 But I know if I met you I'd like you a lot
 What exactly does it take to bring you to my door
 By the time that you arrive I won't live here no more

 What can I do? There's no one here but me
  And nothin' on tv
 Where could you be? I really wouldn't know
 Where else you might go



 FIST VS TACT
I've dwelt long on the past and I just can't
 take it anymore
 I struggle in vain at last, I've managed to board
 Up the windows and lock the door

Persist to resist, fight back
 Not with a fist, with tact
 Ideas in action, with passion
 Passion commitment, dedication

When all is said and done, our time is spent
And we've had our fun
Have you taken the time to think about your life
 And what it means to know eternity

 I've dwelt long on the past and I just can't
 take it anymore
 I struggle in vain at last, I've managed to board
Up the windows and lock the door



WHAT'S MINE IS YOURS 
As soon as I figured out that you wouldn't be there
 As soon as I figured out that you didn't care
I try to do what's right, I try to keep an open mind
 I try to do what's right, but your so unkind

 You don't own me
They've abolished slavery
And I can't wait for the day when things
turn around
You don't own me,
They've abolished slavery
There's conciseness for your actions
I know cause I'm paying for mine now

The piece of paper you have says that you
can get into my pocket
But you can't get inside my heart or my mind or
 my head
Money doesn't mean to me what it obviously
 means to you
Cause I would never steal from kids that dont
 have a clue



 SELF SERVING WITH A PURPOSE
Next time my heart breaks in cold rage
 I'll be on your page
 Waves of misunderstanding crashing
 Demanding passage through

Dont tell me I've changed
 Dont tell me I've changed

You've got your rights
 Dont mean its right, ethical or sane
 I'm not your type your beholding me
Dont remind, regret

Still "Desperate is as desperate does"
Self served purpose, grasping straws
Ugly hate and ill breed heart
Misunderstanding from the start



FOR ALWAYS 
 If we help each other out along the way
Then maybe everything will be OK
 Who decides if you'll succeed?
Who decides those things you want and need?

 Looking back on all those years
 All the smiles and all the tears
 i never want those memories to fade
 What we have done what can we do
 We search our whole life for the truth
For always and always and always

I know sometimes well disagree
 But no one here can absolutely see
 Were just learning as we go
 There's nothing in this world we just dont know

 Honestly not interested



SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT 
 Did we ever have an understanding?
Did we ever have anything at all?
Not that i recall
You were never really there for us but then
 We were never really there for you
Its true, the rest is up to you
 You say its wrong, its right
You say we wont, we might
 We thought about it twice tonight
 And if we dont seem to Broken hearted
That because were glad we've parted
 I think we've had enough for two

Well I believe in second chances
 I believe the world is gonna end
 But I would do anything to set the record straight

 If you would believe

Will someone think about the heartbreak?
Will someone realize there has been a mistake?
 No one really cares enough to listen
 No one really cares enough to listen
 Just believe the lies



 GET WITH IT!
 Kid quit it, get with it
 Kid quit it, get with it
You're getting on my nerves
 Is that what I deserve

I know I can't play guitar
So kill me quickly
And I'll be glad I'm gone

You wouldn't be so cool
 If your friends ran off without you
And left you with your pants down

You're nothing but a lonely clown
 With out a circus
 A sheep that's lost the flock
Your nothing but a lonely clown
 Without a circus
We're just here to rock



INCHES FROM LIFE
 There's something wrong inside of us
 It's important to discuss
A narrow mind a hardened heart
 And this is just the very start

Frustration gets the best of me
 So I dont speak coherently
We are are taught to go along
 We need to figure out it might be wrong

 You oughta know you can be inches from life
And never live at all
You oughta know that our pride is our downfall
 There's no need to stand up tall

 No one knows what's going on
 Even those who cause oppression
 Most of which dont realize
Uneasy smiles and blackened eyes

Could it be there's something real
 Not always known but you can feel
The presence of an absolute
That our lives cant substutute



punk rawk show
  we ain't got no place to go
 so let's go to the punk rawk show
 darling take me by the hand
 we're gonna see a punk rawk band
 there's no use in tv shows
 radio or rodeos
 i wanna get into the crowd
 i wanna hear it played real loud
 aint' got no money to pay
we'll get in anyway doesn't matter i don't care
 it's feel good so we should share
 we're going to the punk rawk show! oooohh!! ooohh!!


 let it happen
 i want someone to love
 a girl that when i think of
  will put a smile on my face
 i want to hold her hand
 want her to understand
there's got to be a better place

 than this world cause this
 is the best time of our lives
Should I be thinking about that now
She turns my world around
 I let it happen everytime

i want a lot of things
selfishness always seem to bring
 all the pain back in my mind
which way to go
answers to questions I don't know
 there's better things that we can find



Hot and Cold
What day is this so I can sing
 The kind of day you start recycling
You feel so good you could explode
Or stand around out by the road

Sometimes it makes me sick
Yah I'd rather puke
Or get poked with a stick
Than see your face
Then I think of the decision I made
That makes me happy all over again
Just like birds to the sky and fish to the sea
I'm as happy as can be



So Kill Me
Losing my mind
You've lost yours long ago
Wasting your time
You want me to go

So when you feel like killing me
Just go ahead cause I'll be there for you
Go ahead and try to understand me
I'll try and understand you
It's not hard to be demanding
Cause this is all so new



I WANNA BE SEDATED
24 hours to go
I wanna be sedated
Nothing to do
No way to go home
I wanna be sedated
Just get me to an airport
Get me on a plane
Hurry(3x) before I go insane
Oh no oh oh oh


TEENAGE LABOTOMY
Labotomy(4x)
DDT got the drop on me
now I am a real sickle
guess I'll have to break the knews
that I have no mind to lose
all the girls that are in love with me
I'm a teenage labotomy

Slugs and snails are safter me
DDT keeps me happy
Now I guess I'll have to tell 'em
That I got no cerebelum
Gonna get my PHD
I'm a teenage labotamy



The KKK took my baby away
She went away for the holidays
said she was going to LA
But she never got there (2x)
They say
The kkk took my baby away
they took her from me (2X)
Ringy ringy the President
to find out where my baby went
Ringy ringy the FBI
to find out if my baby's alive
