HOPELESS CASE OF A KID IN DENIAL

I´m in heavy I´m in deep
I look cool but inside I weep
I´m older but sure ain´t as wise
As I pretend to it´s mostly all lies
I´m a liar I´m a cheat
Sore loser can´t stand defeat
I say I´m right but I know I´m wrong
Just want my music when you´re playing your songs

I know it doesn´t show
But it´s time I let you know
Hopeless case of a kid in denial

Got my tongue firmly in cheek
Make up my mind just after I speak
I should do it but I don´t
I say I will but you just know I won´t
You like the "fabs" I dig "the Who"
You eat tikka I eat vindaloo
I only drink when I wanna forget
I won´t admit it but I do regret

I know it doesn´t show
But it´s time I let you know
Hopeless case of a kid in denial

I´m in deep I´m in real heavy
Can´t kick it even though I try
I feel sick but I don´t want you to heal me
I´m a hopeless case of a kid in denial

Yeah I´m a liar and I´m a cheat
Real sore loser can´t stand defeat
There ain´t a thing that´ll pass my rejection
Getting real close to denial perfection

I know it doesn´t show
But it´s time I let you know
Hopeless case of a kid in denial

SOMETIMES I DON'T KNOW

My minds I
Is looking out for number one
With reasoned rhyme
Gonna destroy and get the damage done

All or nothing want the whole nine yards
They call it safe but I will be on my guard
Dead set wanna get it gotta see the glow
But sometimes I don't know where to go

Hey there girl
You know it ain't the summer of love
Want the world
To know just what I'm thinking of

Flaming cities burning with the rock
Get kids numb by the state of shock
There ain' t no reason to get out or go down take a blow
But sometimes I don't know where to go

Who dares wins and survive
Fight Jihad against the jive

My minds I
Is looking out for number one
With reasoned rhyme
Gonna destroy and get the damage done

All or nothing want the whole nine yards
They call it safe but I will be on my guard
Dead set wanna get it gotta see the glow
But sometimes I don't know
Sometimes I don't know
Sometimes I don't know where to go


TOYS AND FLAVORS

Swallow up

Go waste it´s sweetness on the desert air
Brand new sensation
To enjoy if you care

But are you sure it´s what you´re looking for

With eagle speed buzzards feed
On crums off the fashion floor

Toys and flavors
Season saviours

And cut the edges out
Toys and flavors

YOU´RE TOO GOOD (TO ME BABY)
(Written by Hargraves/Kaplan/Love)

In the morning you're the shining sun of day
When sun is gone you lighten my darkened way
You´re the only one who could get this kind of hold girl
You walked right in and you took complete control
You're too good to me baby
Always treat me right
Too good to me baby
Got me up tight

Simplify these feelings and I'll call you a genius too
They can't stop this thing we've got between us two
There's not another strong enough to get this kind of hold girl
There's not another hip enough to get me by the nose
You're too good to me baby
Always on my mind
Too good to me baby
Treat me good and kind

Just want you to know she don't complain or fiqht

Outta my mind
Too good to me
Treat me right ya'll

You're too good to me baby
You're too qood to me baby
You're too good to me baby

THROW AWAY HEROES

Ten to one and then it's over
Executives are taking turns
Options lost in dirty water
Got a whole lot left to give but still you're burned

No one ever said it'd be easy
Got it made got to be the one
Feels so good but then it's gone

Throwaway heroes
Disposable smiles
Keep track of pats on your back
In all out style

Time to move replace the burden
Pass the gloves onto some other hands
Who's that dude I never heard of
Well he's left the building but he was the shit, he was the man

No one ever said it'd be easy
Got it made got to be the one
Feels so good but then it's gone

Throwaway heroes
Disposable smiles
Keep track of pats on your back
In all out style
Throwaway heroes
Expendable beats
From god to geek
Now someone else is in your seat

Throwaway heroes
Disposable smiles
Keep track of pats on your back
In all out style
Throwaway heroes
Expendable beats
From god to geek
Now someone else is in your seat


NO SONG UNHEARD

Lights are out in the street where I stand
It sure would be great to have a clock with no hands
Met a man said he was wise and in tune
Lazy Sundays turn to Mondays to soon

He said take my hand let us walk thru' that door
I said I walk with my feet and I've been thru' it before
The end is nigh son I said I suppose
If it is we must be pretty damn close

Ain't no stone unturned
No wiseguy's gonna put me down
Ain't no song unheard
But it laughs back at you now
And that might put you down

With bloodshot eyes he was letting me know
He said ten years from now I said a hundred ago
Don't you leave now I know you will fail
I said that's old news I'm sorry gotta bail

Ain't no stone unturned
No wiseguy's gonna put me down
Ain't no song unheard
But it laughs back at you now
And that might put you down

Lights are out in the street where I stand
It sure would be great to have a clock with no hands
Met a man said he was wise and in tune
Lazy Sundays turn to Mondays to soon
With bloodshot eyes he was letting me know
He said ten years from now I said a hundred ago
Don't you leave now I know you will fail
I said that's old news I'm sorry gotta bail

Ain't no stone unturned
No wiseguy's gonna put me down
Ain't no song unheard
But it laughs back at you now
Ain't no stone unturned
No wiseguy's gonna put me down
Ain' t no song unheard
But it laughs back at you now
Right back at you now


TRUCKLOADS OF NOTHIN´

No way to settle when you're sleeping with the devil
And you know they're gonna figure you out
They're gonna blow your cover it's one way or another
Bet you know just what I'm talking about
You've got nothing up your sleeve now
Ain't got no miracle card
You keep on running but the end is sure coming
And you know it's gonna batter you hard

You're on the way to the bargain bin now
Going nowhere fast heading nowhere at all

Used up loose ends hang by a thread
Yesterday's news and they're not even read
You'll land a truckload of nothin´ at all

You're in the eye but the storm is gonna die
Well I don't think you're covered up for the ride
You think you've made it but you're just backdated
And you're quickly running out of style
Well I'll see you on the way down
If I remember your name
You start shaking 'cause you can't stop faking
You were never really cut for the game

Time's up and you've lost the flavor
They're done chewing now they'll spit you out

Used up loose ends hang by a thread
Yesterday's news and they're not even read
You'll land a truckload of nothin´ at all

You're on the way to the bargain bin now
Going nowhere fast heading nowhere at all

Used up loose ends hang by a thread
Yesterday's news and they're not even read
You'll land a truckload of nothin´ at all
Used up loose ends hang by a thread
Yesterday's news just as good as dead
You'll land a truckload of nothin´ at all


A HEART WITHOUT HOME

Such a long while now
Since my highs dropped to lows
You know the sad part is
It's starting to show
That I ain't been quite myself now
For quite a long time
What looked like a thousand bucks
Now turned out a dime

It's getting cold babe
I've been shivering for days
Not exactly lost
But I have still to find my way
As folks did before me
I guess that I'll roam
But the further I stray now
I wish things weren't so

l've got a heart without home
I sure ain't getting wiser
But I feel I'm growing old
I'm stuck here and I'm freezing
I don't know what to know
Back to where I came from
Is where I need to go

What's claimed as logic
Strike me as absurd
Down right paranoid
Might even be the word
With no method to their madness
And heavy on a roll
It will take whole lotta hard work
And a little more soul

I've got a heart without home
I sure ain't getting wiser
But I feel I'm growing old
I'm stuck here and I'm freezing
I don't know what to know
Back to where I came from
Is where I need to go


NO ONE'S GONNA DO IT FOR YOU

Sure as time is a teacher
Confusion makes it so hard to tell
It's bound to be hard to be her
But it seems she's the best part of hell

Astray in myladys mansion
Lost in the chambers of her heart
Blown away beyond comprehension
A love lost to magic and art

You weep and dwell on our loss
Stand denied by the nails in the cross
And I for one you for two
Knows no one's gonna do it for you

Circle of salt in the candle light
Breaks softly in the breeze
The demons stayed back by the freezing night
Guilded dawn broke through with ease

You weep and dwell on our loss
Stand denied by the nails in the cross
And I for one you for two
Knows no one's gonna do it for you

You want it bad you want it oh so much
There are some things that you should know
Some things that someone like you just cannot touch

You weep and dwell on our loss
Stand denied by the nails in the cross
And I for one you for two
Knows no one's gonna do it for you
No one's gonna do it for you
No one's gonna do it for you


I WANNA TOUCH

She got me burning
Got a fever and I'm feeling beat
My blood's boiling in a place so special
Between my head and feet
I got my mind made up
But a part of me is about to bust
Sweet Mary my hand's getting hairy
You know I need you oh so much, yes

I wanna touch I wanna touch
I keep looking but a picture's not enough
I wanna touch

She got me reeling
I'm getting tipsy tossing in my bed
Been rolling down this road too long
Getting fed up with that worn out spread
I want the real sweet deal
No centerfold'll make me blush
Lucille! Got a lust I wanna kill
You know I need it oh so much, yes

I wanna touch I wanna touch
I keep looking but a picture' s not enough
I wanna touch

She got me shaking
But there's no room for moving in my bunk
I'm seeing double and my pants are in trouble
I'm tired of this right hand funk
I gotta wrap it up
I'm really falling into a rut
Please Jean! I'm strung up on ephedrine
I wanna I wanna yeah yes

I wanna touch I wanna touch
I keep looking but a picture' s not enough
I wanna touch

I wanna touch I wanna touch
I wanna touch I wanna touch


HURTIN´ TIME

You put the hurt on me babe
I put the hurt right back
That's a lot of hurt and we're heading
Down on a nowhere track

My eye for your eye
Your tooth for my tooth
Leaves the whole world blind without teeth
And baby that's the hurtin' truth

It's hurtin´ time
Well you know it´s
Hurtin´ time

I apologise now
And wait for you to respond
Will you say you're sorry
Or will the hurtin´ times keep going on

It's hurtin´ time
Well you know it's
Hurtin´ time
A blow for a blow the biter bit
Face right down in the hurtin´ grit
Hurtin´ time

You put the hurt on me babe
I put the hurt right back
That's a lot of hurt and we're heading
Down on a nowhere track

It´s hurtin´ time
Well you know it´s
Hurtin´ time
Hurtin´ time
Hurtin´ time


ENVIOUS

Out of time out of tune
Born sucking on a silver spoon
Trying hard for the best
You don't come close but I can stand the test
Here's a hint here's a clue
I'm the wolf in the movie 'bout you
So pull a knife but I stand on it's edge
l'm the allegiance the one that you pledge

You wanna rise to the occation
But there's nothing to prove
You'll be two steps back
While I'm on the move
And it makes you feel

Envious - You can try but you won't nail it down
Envious - You turn it up but it don't make no sound
Envious - It's good looking at the first glance
But you' re so envious - And you don't stand a chance

You got the axe but I got the licks
I´ve got the drugs but baby you've got the ticks
You're a word not worthy a mention
I'm the teacher and you've got detention

You wanna rise to the occation
But there's nothing to prove
You'll be two steps back
While I'm on the move
And it makes you feel

Envious - You can try but you won't nail it down
Envious - You turn it up but it don't make no sound
Envious - It's good looking at the first glance
But you' re so envious - And you don't stand a chance

You pale in comparison
But what can you do
I admit it I look better beside you

You will cry as I laugh
You're a boy and l'm a man a half
You'll always be the ugly nothing and I the sweet real
I feel no pity but I know how you feel

You wanna rise to the occation
But there's nothing to prove
You'll be two steps back
While I'm on the move
And it makes you feel

Envious - You can try but you won't nail it down
Envious - You turn it up but it don't make no sound
Envious - It's good looking at the first glance
But you' re so envious - And you don't stand a chance


NO DOGS (Only on vinyl)

No I don't need no nations
No leaflets for a damn good cause
No reasons for me to hang around
No guidelines or no clever laws
I don't need no brochure
To tell me what I need to do
No priest or preacher
To realize that I love you

Up to my neck in reasons
Up to my neck in whys
I'm starting to choke on good advice
Going up shit creek river
Down kneedeep in stench
Don' t need no dogs to help me sense

No I don't need no fashion
No rags to show me elite looks
Don't need no interpretations
To guide me through the holy book
Don't need to be a member
Of no party or no secret lodge
Don't need to beg your pardon
For leaving or to get outta dodge

Up to my neck in reasons
Up to my neck in whys
I'm starting to choke on good advice
Going up shit creek river
Down kneedeep in stench
Don' t need no dogs to help me sense

No I don't need no vision
Or bets on what's the next big thing
No prophecies or crystal balls
Predicting what the future will bring

Up to my neck in reasons
Up to my neck in whys
I'm starting to choke on good advice
Going up shit creek river
Down kneedeep in stench
Don' t need no dogs to help me sense
Back
