All in Vein
03:19
|

Lost in the night time world, drifting through the painless ether
Busted brains and fairy dust
Lose it all
Rock and roll glamour went straight to your head
Pass out cold, wet the bed
Now you can't stop and you're better off dead
No luck at all
The easy way out, you scream and shout, without a doubt
It's all in vein
Cruising through the city
Drinking blues out of a can
Doom and gloom all you can stand
Misery
Tell us all about it, nobody cares
Walking in a coma, fall down the stairs
Nothing is real until the medicine wears off
Get some more
The easy way out, you scream and shout, without a doubt
It's all in vein
Void in the head, hole in the heart
Steady rolling loser on the way to the top
Standing in the shadow all alone in the dark
No fun at all
Drown your fear, drown your sorrow, drown your hope and drown tomorrow
Deaf and dumb and dull and blind
Broken dream
The easy way out, you scream and shout, without a doubt, it's all in vein
Easy way out, it ripped you off, you're double crossed, it's all in vain

Chase the Cat
02:06
|

Chase the cat with a fire that burns hot
Vengeance and whatnot
It's gonna run from you
Chase the cat hitting sparks that jump and roll
Ignite your soul
It's gonna run from you
Well, hang on tight and mind the sharp claws
Let it go and do it all again
It's gonna run from you

Oh Yeah!

The dog got loose again
I've got a cheap saw and a loose arm
gonna cut it all apart, I guess I knew it from the start
Oh Yeah!
The stars, they shine at night, and the wormwood glows in the pale moonlight
In the garden of a witch, deadly nightshade manifests
Oh yeah!
When the air begins to rise, wield the knife that cuts the sky
and the tyrants at the door, losing it, losing control

There's a mad man, a flickering light, a lamp in the shade of the dead of the night
I see a rose on a bush, implicitly torn, by the weight of it's color and the tip of it's thorn
Wind, blowing dust in the air, ashes of dreams, cries of despair
The Queen of the mist in her billowing gown can foster the hope that was cast onto ground
Pieces of eight, convoluted units of ten
In the twilight, at that moment in time, when the sun and the moon are both in the sky..... there is a place you can see, out very far, surrounded by heavens of shimmering stars
Gone! Nowhere to be found, by the richest of kings or the poverty bound
Destroyer of soul, chasing illusion, silently waiting, patiently brooding
Pieces of eight, convoluted units of ten
Caught! In a desolate storm, bring me to ruins or return me to home
Only the blind can see in the dark but who would willingly turn their eyes into death?
Born into life, naked and small, helpless and weak, drowning in fear...
Soothingly calm, lovingly bliss... shadowy peace, falling asleep
Pieces of eight, convoluted units of ten

Well, I spent a little time down in Texas
The sun and the girls really drive me wild
Summer beat the hell out of me, but I can work in the heat and I do just fine here
Man, there's dust everywhere here in Texas until the rain comes down and the creek runs high
They get dusted to the lid here in Austin with Reverend Billy G on the radio
I like driving down the road in the country
183 has the BBQ
Get some on the 4th of July
Exploding to the sound of the rock and roll
The ladies are so kind in the small towns
Dallas women hold their nose up high, so I don't really pay them no mind 'cause the girl from San Antone make me feel allright
If you're riding in your car on the highway, and find yourself cruising I35
Get down to the capitol city where the flag has a star all by itself

Armageddon Rock
01:59
|

Jagged mountain peak, burst onto the horizon
Armageddon
Sense the heat in the atmosphere as it splits in two
Everything is consciousness
When the sky crashes down the earth cracks apart
Humankind suicides
Rockets soar into the sky, eerie whistle stirs the air
Wave of silence rushes in
Wave of silence rushing in
Wave of silence rushing in
Wave of silence
Armageddon

Time Keeps Slippin'
02:50
|
|||
I don't have a job, no money to spend
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
Well I'm sitting downtown, I'm lost on a bench
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
Nowhere to go, I'm drinking beer from a can
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
I used to be young- now I'm an old man
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
I don't know where it went, all of my precious time is spent
Don't know where my life has gone, I've got nothing to show for it
I'm feeling so bad, I could have been rich
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
You wouldn't know it by looking that I was the business
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
We used to line 'em right up, yeah I had a ball
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
Now I'm down on my knees and I'm learning to crawl again
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
I don't know where it went, all of my precious time is spent
It's all over now, I can't get it back, and I've got nothing to show for it
I don't know where it went, all of my precious time is spent
I don't know where my life has gone, 'cause I've got nothing to show for it
My friends tried to tell me but I couldn't hear
TIme keeps slippin' through my hands
You only live once you can't do it again
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
They say youth is wasted on the young
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
I was wasted all the time, I was good as gone
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
I don't know where it went, all of my precious time is spent
It's all over now, I can't get it back, and I've got nothing to show for it
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
Time keeps slippin' through my hands
Time keeps slippin' through my hands

Cherry Beach

Cherry Beach in the springtime has one more week to go
It's all local anesthesia from there, so get it while you can
Then wait until next year
Wash the poison off your head, starting over, backwards, again
Sing a little song to the summertime kids that are getting out of school
Riding their bikes and looking so cool, hanging out in the park with the local girls
On the riverbank, in the afternoon.... until September comes back around.... and it's still hot that time of year.... and the big kids come back to school for the Cherry Beach holiday
Cherry Beach holiday
Candy, candy, candy- don't forget to brush your teeth, Mom says not everyone is playing it safe, so look out for number one
The sand is hot
It feels divine between your toes
Your eyes are full and anything goes
When it gets a bit too much, the river can cool you down for a while
Reinvigorate your beautiful smile
Taste the air and breathe sun, until the evening comes around and the foxes all hunt all over downtown
Tomorrow we'll go to the lost and found for the Chery Beach holiday
Cherry Beach holiday

She moves with invisible grace like the birth of a new star
Hot as a million suns, Satina Teeny Panther
Stealing Johnny's thunder
Soft as flowers, springtime showers

Stuck in My Head
05:42
|
|||
I've been sitting around all by myself
Sitting here like there's nobody else
and I'm stuck in my head like I'm the only one
I've got it so bad, it's only just begun
I've got a gun to my head
I've been living at gunpoint
One shot and I'm dead
Baby, oh baby, oh tell me why I feel so bad that I had to cry today?
Stuck in my head like I'm the only one
I've got it so bad, it's only just begun
I've got a gun to my head
I've been living at gunpoint
One shot and I'm dead
Oh no
Got a gun to my head
I've been living at gunpoint
One shot and I'm dead
Oh yeah
Hey, Bo Diddley!
Hey, Bo Diddley!
Hey, Bo Diddley!
Hey, Bo Diddley!
