GOO GOO DOLLS (first release)

I have never heard this album, nor have I read much about it.  I know that it was released in 1987 with a limited number of copies on Metal Blade records.   I know Robby sang most, if not ALL the songs on here.  And, judging from the lyrics, they weren't much into poetry. : )  Just from reading it, I get the impression that it's fast and furious punk.  I'd like to hear it.  If anyone knows where I can get information on it, e-mail me at Zenaxena123@yahoo.com

TORN APART

Well I went down to your house just the other day
Only to discover you had gone astray

Well I called you on the tele just the other day
Only to discover you had gone astray

LIVIN' IN A HUT

I've got an ugly liver from drinking too much
I've got painful sliver from thinking too much
Oh I don't want to go on livin' in this rut
Oh I think I'll go out and build me a hut, but
Curiosity has got me
Tied up right back where it wants me
And all the things that you will do
Make me think I haven't got a clue
I've good a real good sense for seeking out the booze
But I can't afford to buy a pair o' shoes
And when I get some cash it's already been spent
Oh, I can smoke and drink but I can't pay my rent
I've got an ugly liver from drinking too much
I've got painful sliver from thinking too much
Oh I don't want to go on livin' in this rut
Oh I think I'll go out and build me a hut, but
Curiosity has got me
Tied up right back where it wants me
And all the things that you will do
Make me think I haven't got a clue


I'M ADDICTED

1 2 3 4!
Look around this dirty town
Drink it up till we fall down
Don't want to live forever this way
But it's gonna have to do for today
Oh, I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
Before that hurried call
I had my back against the wall
No, don't want to be shown
Go out and learn your own
Oh, I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
1 2 3 4!
Before that hurried call
I had my back against the wall
No, don't want to be shown
Go out and learn your own
Oh, I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be


SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE

It's getting near dawn
The lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you, my love
To give you my dawn surprise
I'll stay with you, darling, soon
I'll stay with you till the seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
Be with me, my love
The light shining through on you
Be with me, my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you, darling, soon
I'll stay with you till the seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
Be with me, my love
The light shining through on you
Be with me, my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you, darling, soon
Oh, till the seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
In the sunshine of your love
In the sunshine of your love
Let me do it again!


HARDSORES

I don't know what you want
You and your silly stomp
You shake your back for me
Then wish that you were dead
And every single time
you blow your silly mind
With more laughing glue
I don't know who you are
I don't see any proof
You got a filthy trick
Then get a filthy dick
And every time you wait
You have to masturbate
Oh, you know it well
Wait, don't stop!
And now I'm done with this
And it's so viscious
You criticize my view
Then criticize my 'tude
But there's just one thing
That I'm interested in
Oh, what's into you!


HAMMERIN' EGGS

Don't Fear the Reaper
All our time has come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man
All our time has gone
Here but now it's gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness)
Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man


BEAT ME

Beat me Jenny, beat me slowly, now
Beat me Jenny, don't you know, I said
Beat me Jenny, beat me slowly, now
Beat me Jenny, don't you know
I didn't love you
All of the time
But now you left me
And it's a crime
Shamamama, I ain't beaten now
Shamamama, don't you know, I said
Shamamama, I ain't beaten now
Shamamama, don't you know
Beat me Jenny, beat me slowly, now
Beat me Jenny, don't you know, I said
Beat me Jenny, beat me slowly, now
Beat me Jenny, don't you know
I coulda loved you
I didn't try
You made me happy
Oh, I've gotta fly


SCREAM

See me scream a thousand screams
Every time I start to dream
Scream and dream of my little love
Oh, I gotta find my glove
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
See me think then you interrupt
Wrap it up, put me back in my trunk
Turned ill from this hatred fifty times
Oh we're goin' down in my screamin' mind
I lie awake in a cold, cold sweat
Rolling around in the sheets and screaming wet
Oh my God, here it comes
Another dream, another, another one


SLAUGHTERHOUSE

And if the accident will, well we'll both fade away
And I'll leave you still, and we will both be safe
Say you're safe, your life will pass away
Only to be saved, by another's lonely stay
All the flowers I can grow and all the children's tears
And everything I know will vanish with the years
Say you're safe, your life will pass away
Only to be saved by another's lonely stay
And if the accidents will, well we'll both fade away
But the trees will grow, until my dying day
All the flowers I can grow, and all the children's tears
And everything I know, will vanish with the years
Say you're safe and your life will pass away
Only to be saved by another's lonely stay


DIFFERENT LIGHT

Brand new goo goo goo dolls
See me in a different light
I think it'll be okay
Why are you so blind that you
Can only see today
See me in a different space
That you'd expect to see
Then maybe you be taken in by(?)
Ever so close to me(?)
See me with a different face
That I've had in my past
Criticize the other jerks
Who make this madness last
See me in a different light (You're so blind)
See me in a different light (You're so blind)
See me in a different light (You're so blind)
See me in a different light (You're so blind)
See me in a different light (You're so blind)
See me in a different light (You're so blind)
See me in a different light (You're so blind)
See me in a different light (You're so blind)


COME ON

Come on and show me
Just what you mean to me
Come on and show me
Your daily atrophy
Come on and show me
Just what I mean to you
Come on and show me
Just what you are
Come on and hold me
Just like you used to do
Come on and squeeze me
When I make love with you
Come on and show me
I picked out who you are
Come on and blame me(?)
I like it now(?)
Come on and stroke me
Just like you whip your bat
Come on and show me
I ain't seen nothing yet
Come on and show me
I don't know where I'll go
Come on and show me
I wanna know!


DON'T BEAT MY ASS (WITH A BASEBALL BAT)

Things don't look to good to me
I feel I'm out of luck
And all because of swollen glands
And just one stupid fuck
This wacko came from Alabammy
That's not where it's at
And now your jock's been chasing me 'round
With a great big baseball bat
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass with a baseball bat, no
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass with a baseball bat, no
Well I was in the mood for some lovin' bulk
Not a rassling match with a some big hulk
And this here dude he was an uncool cat
And he beat me by my head with a baseball bat
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass with a baseball bat, no
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass with a baseball bat, no
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass with a baseball bat, no
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass
Don't kick my ass with a baseball bat, no
When I got up from being beat to the ground
I started itchin' around like a blue-tick hound
And I was aghast at what I found
The latest social disease that's been going around
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass with a baseball bat, bitch
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass with a baseball bat, bitch
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass with a baseball bat, bitch
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass (I'll kick your ass)
I'll kick your ass with a baseball bat, bitch
