1. ALL-RIGHT (OH, YEAH)

All-right,
Oh yeah all-right,
Oh yeah all-right,
Oh yeah

Here we go,
I'm back again
Act surprised when i come in
It's only me it's only stupid me
You could never figure out
What was all the fuss about
I know its me it's only stupid me
It's only stupid me

All-right,
Oh yeah all-right,
Oh yeah all-right,
Oh yeah

Sickle-cell anemia
Carpal tunnel and bulimia
Don't get sick it's only stupid me
You think you got the real deal
Damaged goods are such a steal
It serves you right, its only stupid me
Its only stupid me
All-right

All-right,
Oh yeah
All-right,
Oh yeah
All-right,
Oh yeah
All-right

I see you coming round again!
Push aside and muscle in
When everything is said and done its me
It's only stupid me

All-right,
Oh yeah
All-right,
Oh yeah
All-right,


2. “CHA!” SAID THE KITTY

Sucking like a crack hack
Feeling like an 8-track
Out of whack
All the times a clucking no
A suckit and a suckit
I don't want to live with that
And you don't want to take it back
And I don't want to be a rat
And you don't want a kitty cat
Reaching for the phone ring
Settle for the chump change
Settle down

Make it like a godsend
Feeling like a has-been
Remember when
All the times a clucking no
A suckit and a suckit
All the times a clucking no
A suckit and a suckit
I don't want to live with that
And you don't want to take it back
And I don't want to be a rat
And you don't want a kitty cat


3. LUCKY

Pack up the cats
And move to the city
Leave the checks and the balance behind
???? In the city
I'll move with nothing left to prove to you
It's such a lucky time
Nothing left to prove


4. HIT THE SKIDS OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND
LOVE HE ROCK

Say what you want to say to me
I don't know who you know
But that'll change eventually
I wanna know who you know
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
Don't need a reason
Wanna go where you go
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
I wanna go
I'm all alone
Once you've been for a skid
I'm all alone
Doing everything you did
No one cares and no one calls
But the party in the bathroom stall
Everyone is telling jokes that I don't get at all
I'm all alone
Hey, whatcha wanna pay for me?
I'm in love with rock'n'roll
But that'll change eventually
I wanna know who you know
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
Don't need a reason
Wanna go where you go
Wanna see what you say and have a field day today
I wanna go
I'm all alone
Once you've been for a skid
I'm all alone
Doing everything you did
No one cares and no one calls
But the party in the bathroom stall
No one's gonna call a number written on the wall
I'm all alone
No one cares and no one calls
But the party in the bathroom stall
No one's gonna call a number written on the wall
I'm all alone


5. 500,000 SCOVILLES

I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm eating right, I'm working out
I'm living well
I'm eating right, I'm working out
I'm living well
I'm living well
I'm living well


6. WHAT CAN I TELL YOU?

Whatever you want
Whatever turns you on
Whatever you want
To fix whatever's wrong
I wanna go to where the parties are
Where all my friends are tending bar
Oh yeah
Whatever turns you on
What can i say that you can't say better?
What can i tell you?
Whatever you want
Whatever turns you on
Whatever you want
Coming right along
Shaking hands and all things lame
Kissin ass and taking names
Oh yeah
Whatever turns you on
I know a thing about a thing or two
But what can i tell you?
A thing or two about a thing or two
But what can i tell you?
Easily fooled and everything's cool
What can i tell you?
Caught between now and never
What can i tell you?
What can i say that you can't say better?
What can i tell you?


7. FINE AND GOOD

Things are good, nothing much for me to say
Feeling happier everyday
Things are good, i've got a simple mind
It seems like everything is going fine
Fine and good
Everything is fine and good
Everything is running smooth this week
I don't even really feel the need to speak
But things are good, didn't mean to make you mad
People seem to like when things are bad
Things are good
Everything is fine and good
Is that too much to ask to be this way?
I don't think i'm asking to much
Is that too much to ask to be this way?
I really can't stress it enough
There you are, everything is fine and good
There you are, everything is fine and good
It's fine and good
Everything is fine and good
Is that too much to ask to be this way?
I don't think i'm asking too much
Is that too much to ask to be this way?
Or do you think i'm asking too much?
Is that too much to ask to be this way?
I don't think i'm asking too much
Don't confuse the issue
Or take contention when you are
I really can't stress it enough
There you are, everything is fine and good
Its fine and good


8. LEAD PIPE CINCH

It's something in my mind
Won't let my heart and head and mouth connect
And something in my mind
Won't let my heart out of the darkness yet

That something in my mind, it's locked away
It's not over, I'm not sober anymore


9. COOL MAGNET

Standing at the edge of something
Where discussions are like concussions
Whisper in my ear
Cigarettes and beer
They don't call me cool for nothing
Too cool for school
Nobody's fool
Screw all the rules
My mind's abused
Not quite amused
I'm just confused
Yeah
Comes so easily
When everything you want is suspect
Attracted to the cool magnet
Only adding to the confusion
Dillusions are like illusions
I haven't got the heart to tell them all apart
I think i might need a transfusion
Too cool for that
A cataract
A triple sec
Don't get upset
We're to exact
Forget the facts
Yeah
Comes so easily
When everything you want is suspect
Attracted to the cool magnet


10. SHE HATES MY JOB

She's my girl, she hates my job
She'd trade it all in for the time that it's robbed
She's ok, she don't lay blame
But she hates my job all the same
She hates my job
She won't say
I don't think i want to ask her anyway
I know something's gotta give
She hates my job but she'll live
She hates my job
Its all alright, she just hates my job
She'll admit it's not half bad
I love my job and so does her mom and dad
She hates my job
She hates my job but i love her anyway
She hates my job


11. STONEY

(Instrumental)


12. LAMINATE MAN

Everything you want is done
You wanna run and all you wanna get is high
Stand back and letting all the checks roll in
You've done enough to get you by
You don't even try
With your resume around your neck
Loans are going unpaid
Dinner dates are delayed
Phones calls are never returned
Toys in the driveway
Ashes in the ashtray
Bridges that you've yet to burn
I think its coming to you
Such a strange occupation
I think its coming to you
Such a strange situation
You want to turn me around
By the resume around my neck
Hand in hand on the witness stand
Making time with you
You want to jerk me around
With your resume around your neck
You're gonna buy us with the ease of a virus and disease
You were on a rope but now your done
Your lead is hard to follow
Your story's hard to swallow
You've stopped being very much fun
I think its coming to you
Such a strange occupation
You've got it coming to you
Such a strange situation
I wanna hang you up
By the resume around your neck
Hand in hand on the witness stand
Making time with you
Send you home
With broken bones
Making time with you


13. ALL THE KIDS ARE RIGHT

You heard that we were great
But now you think we're lame
Since you saw the show last night
You hoped that we would rock
And knock it up a notch
Rockin' was nowhere in sight

And it's never good when it goes bad
No one likes to feel like they've been had
And it may be okay
But you won't wear our t-shirts now
Not anymore

First the band looked wired
Then the band looked tired
Sluggish and a little slow
He's walking through the set
As drunk as he could get
And what the hell was wrong with Joe?

And you could tell the crowd was fading fast
Every song we played looser than the last
And it may be okay
But you won't wear our t-shirts now

All the kids, they hold a grudge
Their minds are logged on to the net and
All the kids, they hold a grudge
You fail them and they won't forget it
All the kids are tired and turn away
They saw what you did
You're all wrong and all the kids are right

You heard that we were great
But now you know we're lame
Since you saw the show last night
You hoped that we would rock
And wished that we'd just stop
And finally we said goodnight

When we had returned for the encore
You and half the room had headed for the door
No one wanted more

All the kids, they hold a grudge
Their minds are logged on to the net and
All the kids, they hold a grudge
You fail them and they won't forget it
All the kids, they're tired and turn away
All the kids they hold a grudge
Their minds are logged on to the net and
All the kids they hold a grudge
You fail them and they won't forget it
All your cred won't save you from the kids
They saw what you did
You're all wrong and all the kids are right

Next


14. DEEP CUT

I don't know where i went
My brain is up for rent
I feel like my whole life is spent
I don't know where i went
What do you do when its already everywhere?
What do you do when nobody really cares?
What do you do while its cool to fuck with you?
What do you do?
When you believe what they say about you
And even the things you know are not true
And you can't even ask yourself
I don't know where i'm at
I think i killed my cat
I get these paranoid attacks
I don't know where i'm at
What do you do when opinions are everywhere?
What do you do when its nothing you want to hear?
What do you do when you can't think of what to do?
What do you do?
When you believe what they say about you
And even the things you know are not true
And you can't even ask yourself
Gotta move on
What do you do when you don't know what to do? (gotta move on)
What do you do? (gotta move on)


15. LUCKY TIME

I never fail to catch the small details
Bigger things just seem to trigger things
You only know because i told you so
And yeah, i guess that's fine
Its only me
Now who else would it be?
With you
Such a lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
I'll never be just who i want to be
I've bought into the things i'd never do
I know you know but you never tell me so
And i cannot repay
Let me try to make it up to you
And soon
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
I never fail to catch the small details
I'm catching on
That nothing will last that long
You can't be shamed if you've never played their games
Around the room to play
Its only you with nothing left to prove
But i don't want to lose this lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove
To you
Its such a lucky time
With everything to prove


BONUSTRACKS (AUSTRALIAN VERSION)


16. IT'S A LONG WAY TO THE TOP (IF YOU WANT TO ROCK AND
ROLL) (AC/DC COVER)

Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stop in all the byways
Playin' rock 'n' roll
Gettin' robbed
Gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up
Broken-boned
Gettin' had
Gettin' took
I tell you, folks
It's harder than it looks

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

If you think it's easy doin' one night stands
Try playin' in a rock roll band
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

Hotel, motel
Make you wanna cry
Ladies do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Gettin' old
Gettin' grey
Gettin' ripped off
Underpaid
Gettin' sold
Second hand
That's how it goes
Playin' in a band

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
Look out, it's rough and mean

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

Well it's a long way
Well it's a long way, you should've told me
It's a long way
Such a long way


17. ANSWERING MACHINE

Hey guys what's up? I'll, uh, try to keep the accent to a minimum, uh, I was going to tell you the new album sounds great, uh, but it sort of sounds a little "sequencey". Thanks.

Hey Scott, it's Blake. Um, [?] Kicking my ass, but uh, I ordered a pizza: all spinach, half jalapenos the way you like it. Anyway I'm flipping through the movie listings for tonight and uh, i've got it narrowed down to a few. I figured we could either go see "Death in Scarsdale" which is about a world-famous dermatological endocrinologist who becomes platonically obsessed with a boy he's treating for excessive perspiration, but then begins himself to suffer from excessive perspiration. Or we could go see "Very Small Flings", which is about the figure of Death presiding over the front entrance of a carnival sideshow whose spectators watch performers undergo unspeakable degradations so grotesquely compelling that the spectators' eyes become larger and larger until the spectators themselves are transformed into giant eyeballs in chairs; while on the other side of the sideshow tent the figure of Life uses a megaphone to invite fairgoers to an exhibition in which the fairgoers consent to undergo unspeakable degradations. They can witness ordinary persons gradually turn into gigantic eyeballs. If you don't feel like anything that heavy, we could go see, uh, "Three Chairs" - oh wait, that one's got Zack Clogman - we don't want to see that. I was thinking maybe we could go see "The Knight Wears a Sombrero", which is about a nearsighted apprentice cowpoke swearing vengeance for a gunslinger's rape for which he mistakenly believes is the motherly brothel owner that he is secretly in love with, but then he loses the trail of the gunslinger after misreading a road sign and is drawn to a sinister Mexican ranch where oedipally grieved gunslinger is richly blinded by a mysterious veiled nun. Um, I don't know, we could just go see a comedy also. Give me a call back, bye.

Scott, this is David. Um right. I'm in a awkward position, that's difficult to explain. Um, I'm at a party and there's English girls crawling up and down the walls ... Um, i've gotta go fast. Uh, I hope I see you at the Masquerade, OK? Bye.

Hey Scott, it's Blake. Uh, on second thought why don't we just go get drunk. OK, give me a call back, bye.

[Local H:] this is Renaldo Limbaugh from Los Angeles; and I'm calling about playing bass for you guys. Dude, I like saw your show the other day and I noticed you only had like two people on stage or something and dude, I'm like the best in LA so, like, give me a call. My number is 818-562-25...4. OK dudes, rock on.

Yeah, yeah um, this is a message for Local H. This is Elmore...Elmore Washterstrum and um, I just called to say I love you guys and also that you, um, you really inspire me and, um, I play guitar and I'm working on a riff right now, um, I wanted to play it for you, um, let me, let me put my phone in my amp here, um, hold on a minute. It mainly goes a little something Ive been working on it real hard butit goes something like this:

[Plays opening from "Bound for the Floor"]

I mean, that's all I have right now, but um, anyway i've been working on it and, anyway, I, that's all I have and, but you know, if you want to use it you can! Um, so, anyway I love you guys and uh, bye.

Hey Scott, it's Juliana again. Um, I forgot to say that the other night I went to see the Food Fighters, and um, I was talking to their drummer, Taylor, and I was telling him that I needed a new bass player, and he said he was talking about he was recommending this guy named Tommy who used to be in Loud Lucy and, um, I was just wondering what's up with Tommy who was in Loud Lucy? Do you know that guy? You probably know them because they were Chicago people, right? Um, OK, what's the scoop on Tommy? Bye.

Hi Joe, it's Jennifer; uh Julie and I were just calling to see if you made it home OK from your crazy night in Atlanta. Uh, give me a call when you get in, bye.

Hey Joe, it's Mark. I talked to that one guy, I got that stuff from that one place and i'll be talking to this other guy the day after next about that other stuff you were talking about. Give me a call later, bye.

Hey Scott, it's Nick. Um, listen, I found one of those Supero amps you were looking for. It's at this place in Atlanta called Midtown Music, and uh, the girl there ... Her name is Jenny, you need to give her a call, it's 404-867-5309. Um, just give her a call, ask for Jenny, and um, she'll hook you up. See ya.

Pick up the fucking phone Joe, I know you're there you fucking prick. You're fucking with the wrong person because I will fucking cut you you know this I will fucking cut you.

Hi, i've got a message for Scott Lucas. Hey, it's, uh, Kevin. I was just calling because I found that article you want on, uh, penis enlargement without messy creams and vacuum devices and I can fax that over to you. Peace. Take care. Bye.

Hello? Are you there? Pick it up. If you're there pick it up. Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up. Talk to you later.

Joe, you know you've got to call me when you get your ass home. Don't you ever leave me with the fattest chick that you can ever find. Now you get...how does that work bro? You get the smooth, fine chicks and I get the fat, ugly friend that's just hangin'...she's lookin' like a slab of meat. Now someone ought to have told you that if her ass is as wide as the goddamn door, there is no way that I was going to be able to do squat with it. Am I right, or am I right? I like butt just like anyone else, but don't mean that I like a juicy porker of an ass! So come on bro, look out for me. Please, next time not the fat, ugly friend, OK bro? Just give me a little bit of love. If I get the sloppy seconds that's cool, but don't give me the fourths or fifths, OK? Thank you. Peace.

Hey, I just ordered a Pizza House, uh, pizza and if you don't get over here soon I'm going to eat the whole thing myself; it's got about 8 pieces and I'm about to eat 5 of them and that will leave you 4. Ha ha ha!

Where the fuck are you? We're having this crazy party and there's like, this strange English girl on stilts wearing a purple fly costume and she's like crawling on the walls and shit it's...it's all out of control! Heh heh heh, so call me back or come over you fuck. Bye.

Hey i've been here for 20 minutes and I'm still hallucinating where've you been? You get five minutes and then I'm out of here, all right? Bye.

Hi Scott Lucas. You're my daddy Lucas I think you might be my dad, bye.
