Lyrics


1. CLEAN TOWN

You wanna worship its feelings
The ones who's squeezing the shame from every man
And if mama says it's dinner time,
If she ruins your love, run away
So you live in a prison
So you're wasting your life
On a system you never will understand
Are you the one I dreamed of. Man!

[Chorus]
Clean town if you want to get away
You pack your cases and you hope for a better day
Mama's alright she said she didn't want your love
Clean town if you want to get away,
You pack your cases and you hope for a better day
Joni's alright she said she didn't want your love

Won't you walk down the main street
Take the bridge over never ending rails
And even if you're falling down
That's an open door to the outside world
So you live in a bubble
So you're wasting your life
On a system you never will understand
Are you the one I dreamed of. Man!

[Chorus]

You can drive to the east cost
Disappear for a while
Put the band-echo on, then we'll give him a ride
Are you the one I dreamed of. Man!

[Chorus]

Won't you get away...


2. WHITE WALL

Yellow burning thing, it's a dirty sin
I know
I'm on the pavement of my own mind it's silly
Silly as the weather in June, March or December
Silly as a man can be, and I'm down, yes I'm down

And I sang my:
La la teacher my, la la teacher for you (I'm coming on the window)
My la la teacher, my la la teacher for you (I'm coming on the window again)
And I watched my little baby from the seaside

Do you remember, the days when we were young
All tied up, by a teacher's hand,
I was too shy and they said you're too dry, but I didn't notice,
Flowers were hot in the cold winter night and so was I,
yeah so was I

And I sang my:
La la teacher, my la la teacher for you (I'm coming on the window)
My la la teacher, my la la teacher for you (I'm coming on the window again)
And I watched my little baby from the seaside
Yeah I watched my little baby from the seaside
I watched my baby from the seaside

Though it's been far away
I'm gonna help you out
Though it's been far away
I'm gonna help you out
Though it's been far away, yes it's been far away

And I sang my:
La la teacher my, la la teacher for you (I'm coming on the window)
My la la teacher, my la la teacher for you (I'm coming on the window again)
And I watched my little baby from the seaside
I watched my little baby from the seaside
I watched my baby from the seaside
I watched my baby from the seaside


3. HAIL THE SUNNY DAYS

Share some thoughts for all the pretty people
Bless the gods and all the wealthy fellas
See how they run, see how they try
To give their best for all our beauty

They wear dignity like the falling angels
Proper shoes and the velvet trousers
We were tramps and whores who gathered around
Let’s shed a tear for those who’s crying

And there ain’t no shame
Everybody’s waiting for a sunny day
Everybody gets their shot of being someone
So use your sunny day

We’re the dirt in the fields you're running
We’re the springtime’s first carnation
And we are all alone and so we stand
Above you all, the matched creation

Let’s all sing for our broken future
Let’s sing for all the idiots
Who will not share their lands
Their lands of gold and big ideas
We ain’t got nothing to live up to

And there ain’t no shame
Everybody’s waiting for a sunny day
Everybody gets their shots of being someone
So use your sunny day

And we share our pain
Everybody’s waiting for a sunny day
Everybody gets their shot of being someone
So hail the sunny days

And there ain’t no shame
Everybody’s waiting for a sunny day
Everybody gets their shot of being someone
So hail your sunny day

And we share our pain
Everybody’s waiting for a sunny day
Everybody gets their shot of being someone
So hail the sunny days

You gotta hail your sunny days
You gotta hail your sunny days


4. LITTLE BOY JR (LIVE IN BOSTON USA DECEMBER 03)

I've got a brand new hand if you wanna perform
A 30 year old army turning fire into storm
I've got a vicious little soldier, I know he's alright
He's gonna catch some women tonight, that's alright
He's gonna catch some women tonight

He's spinning round 'n' round 'n' round until he's had enough
Going town to town to town just to prove that he's tough
Don't let him down under your skin, that's what they say
He's gonna catch some ladies today, what they say
He's gonna catch some ladies today

And when the firstborn baby starts to scream out: -Bollocks!
Smash him out at midnight, you ain't raised ortodox
Take some money, spread 'em out as wide as you can
You've got more room in your pocket then a russian, ru la la la

Little boy Jr barks a pitbull to tears,
Without even knowing, it's his most primal fear
That's your spirit Jr, maybe your light
You're gonna catch some women tonight, that's alright
You're gonna catch some women tonight

And when the firstborn baby ...

It's time for closing in those bars, you've got that rush, that's cool
Do you know, your reputation is a future O'Dole
That rope is getting closer, know that it's tight
There won't be any women tonight, not tonight
There won't be any women tonight, not tonight
There won't be any women tonight
