1 . WELCOME TO THE MONKEY HOUSE

Wire's coming back again
Elastica, got sued by them
When Michael Jackson dies
We're covering Blackbird
But won't it be absurd then
When no one knows what song they just heard
Unless someone on the radio
Tells them first
So come on, come on, come on, come
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
You monkeys


2. WE UUSED TO BE FRIENDS

A long time ago, we used to be friends
But I haven't thought of you lately at all
If ever again, a greeting I send to you
Short and sweet to the soul is all I intend

Come on now, honey
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, sugar
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when

It's something I said, or someone I know
Or you called me up, maybe I wasn't home
Now everybody needs some time
And everybody know
The rest of it's fine
And everybody knows that

Come on now, sugar
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, honey
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when

We used to be friends a long time ago

Short and sweet to the soul is all I intend

We used to be friends a long time ago

We used to be friends a long time ago
We used to be friends

All right, let's see if we can do this in one toke - take.

I find out too late when I,
I am over it
And each time, dearly escape when I'm (enough said)
Divine, fine

I am over it

I try to keep myself elated
And in my right mind, uh-huh, uh-huh
The one wrong song, telling me I've been here too long (Enough said)
And I'm gone.

9. THE LAST HIGH

I am alone
But adored by 100,000 more
Then I said when you were the last.
And I have known love, like a whore
From at least 10,000 more
Then I swore when you were the last

When you were the last high
High
High
High

You were awake,
And I should have stayed, but wandered.
I was only out for a day
Out for a day
It was Chicago for a moment,
And then it was Paris and London for a few days

Well, I am alone
But adored by 100,000 more
Then I swore when you were the last.

When you were the last high
High
High
High

Well I was the first to have spoken
And I said just about all of the things you shouldn't say.
So maybe you loved me, but now maybe you don't.
And maybe you'll call me.
Maybe you won't.

So, I am alone
But adored by 100,000 more
Then I said when you were the last.
And I have known love, like a whore
From at least 10,000 more
Then I swore when you were the last.

When you were the last high
High
High
High

When you were the last high

11. I AM SOUND

For have I, I've built a castle
Upon believing before I doubt
I have suffered but my friends say I have learned from it
And for have I believed the snow could
Not be freezing upon the ground
Now my ass is blue and black, but I am sound

And for have I belonged to no one
More than fleetingly and in doubt
I have had what now is gone
But still I've known them
And for have I, I have absolved myself
Of demons I must confess
Having known them growing old, then
I will rest

But where are all the songs
For me to sing along to
When I am hoping someone writes one for me
And sings me something sweetly
For, I promise to sing along
And then we'll both know nothing's wrong
Singing na, na-na-na

For have I delivered comfort
To the aching and for the tired
With these words of comic wisdom
I have tried.

So where are all the songs
For me to sing along
When I am hoping someone write one for me
And sings me something sweetly
For, I promise to sing along
And then we'll both know nothing's wrong
Singing na, na-na-na


12. HIT ROCK BOTTOM

You ain't got music if you ain't got the muscle, oh yeah
Ain't seen nothin' 'til you're down and you're rotten, oh yeah
You ain't got nothing until you hit rock bottom.
Oh yeah

You ain't got music if you ain't got the muscle, oh yeah.

Oh yeah

13. (YOU COME IN) BURNED

Well, you come in baby
You will get burned
Because I am just what I am, I've learned
I slowly become some "why" that you live with
And mama told you that you would get this
Hey, I lost you when you took me in, my friend
Now against my will, I still stay out
Way out
Way out

I am maybe a loser
Maybe a sinner
Either way, a perpetual beginner
Hey, I lost you when, when you took me in, my friend
Now against, I still stay out
Way out
Way out

Hey, I lost you when you took me in, my friend
Now against my will, I still stay out
Way out
Way out
