MOTEL
CALIFORNIA
IT'S A
LIE
Always
on the road
You know I'm never looking back
And I always slay the demons
Cause I'm always on attack
Looking to the moon
And I'm trying to find my place
And now I'm looking to the north
And I'm living at a pace
On the tour, on the road
Never stop for rest
Who's the one, who's the one
Who's the fuckin' best
Now I've got to move
And I've got to move on
Now I got to laugh
While I'm singing this song
I hand you love
It's no surprise
Don't step to me
It's a lie
Alive in me for all to see
I am the man
Slowly walking down
You know I'm falling into place
And I'm screaming at the heavens
While I'm looking at her face
But I've gotta move fast
And I've gotta keep my back
Like the vision that she wasn't
Like the girl who never danced
Took my love, she took my heart
She took me to the level
Took my love, took my heart
She took me to the devil
Now I've got to move
And I've got to move on
Just like I said
You try to bring me down
You try, you try, to make me one of you
I am the man
DIALOGUE
I got no
use to call you
I got no reason to miss you at all
I can't pretend I love you
Although you got me by the balls
I got no use
I got no use
I ain't got time to kill you
Spend too much time behind these walls
I can't pretend I love you
Although you got me by the balls
You weave your web around me
And all your eyes confuse me
You drain my balls beneath me
And then you try to eat me
SANDWICH
She was
a good witch
She was a bad witch
But all I really wanted was a mother fuckin' sandwich
A bandit left handed
The woman drove me crazy
But I couldn't understand it
You could try to break me, take me
But you'll never understand
You could funnel, tunnel
But you'll never truly comprehend
That's what I say
You could bleed me, feed me
But you'll never truly be my friend
You could move me, move me, move me
But you'll never see the end
That's what I say
A fish over here, a fish over there
Here a fish, there a fish
Everywhere a mother fuckin'
Fish over here, a fish over there
RAGE AGAINST
THE ANSWERRING MACHINE
WOULD YOU
LIKE TO BE THERE
Somewhere
the evening sun
Is falling down, the day is done
How I'd like to be there, how I'd like to share
Somewhere the darkness frowns
And hides behind the ones in doubt
Would you like to be there, would you like to share
With me, 'cause my arms are stretched a mile wide
Under the ocean floor, the sand is crawling up the shore
How I'd like to be there, 'n how I'd like to share
Under the western sky, the days are slowly passing by
Would you like to be there, would you like to share
With me, 'cause my arms are stretched a mile wide, yeah
The more you see, the more you know
The more you see, the more you know
The more you see, the more
Somewhere the songbird sings, but hears there's no-one listening
How I'd like to be there, 'n how I'd like to share
Out in the blackened sea, there's unison and harmony
Would you like to be there, would you like to share
With me, 'cause my arms are stretched a mile wide
The more you see, the more you know
The more you see, the more you know
The more you see
LITTLE
RED MAN
American
flag wraps round the pole
And the little red man is taking control
The man with the puppet
Starts to juggle your dreams
And the world that you live
May not be what it seems
Hold onto sorrow, it constantly lies
And the things that I thought always kept me in stride
Smoke cigarettes till the light came to see
Read the fine print on the wrong guaruntee
Little Red Man
You're kind of young
Now its time to retreat
You're the right people, the wrong ones for me
Some turn to apples and lemons of spice
Wings of tomorrow will swallow your pride
I'm just a dreamer, swimming in my mind
I'm just a dreamer in my mind
I'm just a dreamer, laughing into mine
I'm just a dreamer in my mind
Drinking the sunlight
The salt from the sea
You're the wrong people, the right ones for me
Circular motions and things that are found
Wings of tomorrow you won't hear a sound
BICYCLE
WHEELS
Life is
to be lived on the positive tip
Never lose the ground
You never gonna slip
If you never lose the ground
Always draw the line
Never wear the frown
Should've got myself some bicycle wheels
Should've got myself some bicycle wheels
Should've got myself some bicycle wheels
On the wings of steel
There's dinosaur's in countries
Everyone that I've seen
There's dinosaur's in countries
If you know what I mean
I always keep a watch on the ever changing future
Doing what I want
And you could do what suits you
I said throw your hands in the air
I like to see your armpit hair
Throw your hands in the air
I like to see your armpit hair
Life is to be lived on the positive tip
I'll never lose the ground
You know I'm never gonna slip
Never gonna slip, cause I never lose the ground
Always draw the line
You know I never wear the frown
FATHER
Beat me
down, one more time
Words of love, hard to find
Gotta find my mother, she won't lie
Where the hell's my father
Farther, farther
You like to lie
Swimming in the water
One last time
Imagination cross my mind
I beat the bush, I beat the bush
Shove me down
Where the hell's my father
Farther, farther
You like to lie
Father, old man, can you find me
Father, old man, do you care
Father, old man, can you find me
Do you care
Father
You like to lie
UNDERTOW
The pain
is gone
The rain and storm they stumble down
The sun disguised again today
The wagon rolls, its axis bound
Another bottle cracked today
The game moves on
The people push and move so hard
Where now don't those flavors go
Answer now
Your questions move like undertow
Off to find your island now
We got pulled out by the undertow
That's the way the wind blows
Everybody's laughing
We got pulled out by the undertow
That's the way the wind blows
Too long today
We got pulled out by the undertow
That's the way the wind blows
SHINE
Just a
grain of sand on a thousand beaches
Just like dust in the wind
Try to understand why I go to pieces
Don't know where to begin
Got a smokin' hand, nobody knows plan
But I can feel it, it's gonna overload
It's a greed machine, it means everything
I'm gonna have to get it out of my head
Got a screaming hand, shadows are all my friends
Cause they conceal me when I overload
It's a greed machine, it means everything to me
I can't conceal it when it overloads
I still shine
Got a smokin' hand, no one can understand
But I can feel it's gonna overload
It's a greed machine, it means everything to me
I
can't conceal it when it overloads
STRANGE
All the
way from across the sea
From the man to you, from the man to me
Four white sticks with good intentions
Feed the flame for my protection
I want to know what you want
To find what I don't
But now it's yesterday
Falling down a broken spiral
Heed the flame for no tomorrow
Back up on your feet again
Hold my hand, I'll be your friend
Cause the leaves are falling, falling down
Falling down again
12 CENTS
Watching,
waiting
You know it shouldn't take this long
Leaning, forward
I know it couldn't possibly take much longer
I know the pain moves on
And I feel the same for the wrong
Angels, walking, floating on and on
Breathing, eloquent
I know it couldn't possibly wait much longer
Searching, so long
I know we'll find a way
Reaching all alone
I know they couldn't possibly hate much longer
