Spend my time and all my money on a knob for my brass bed
Climb to the top of the highest mountain, just to see how far I get?
Dancin' with my shadow, and I let my shadow lead
And if I die with a penny in my pocket, then I guess thats all I need
Oh baby, where you going to?
I was thinking that maybe I would come along with you
I could walk on down the road, till I found me someone new
But he's...
Generation X
We are complex
Angst is the perfect wave
Ride it and be well paid
It all sucks, oh by the way
I wrote a new song today
So upset with all I have
And the world is such a drag
I've become my own cliche
CHORUS
I am an angry young man
I am an angry young man
A.Y.M an angry man
Repeate the past
It's a gas, gas, gas
Make all the same mistakes
That all my heros made
Pretend that I hate fa...
Your voice is a song
Sweet and long
I sing along
Your eyes are like pools
Bright and cool
They see through fools
I'll never change my point of view
I wanted you to know the truth
That everything I'll ever do
I do for you
All for you
Your hands make me feel
Feel for real
Feel so healed
My love is so true
And my love is all for you
Your voice is a song
Sweet and long
I sing along
Oh
Yeah
Jimmy goes through money like a millionaire
Bills pile up around him but he doesn't care
He picks up his best friend at the local scene, yeah
Wraps it up in the corner of a magazine, oh yeah
All night
God he hates to be lonely
Daylight
Hasn't seen any sun in three days
Know why
Every time it goes down you can hear him say
Oh, all my bridges are burnin'
Watch them go down in flames
Oh, ...
Twisted little daydreams, memories with pain
Locking me behind the closet door
I will be a good boy, promise, I won't run
Sit quite in my room, playing with my toy gun
Now I'm older but the memories still eat me like disease
Alone in the darkness, watching you on my TV
Why did God make you so famous, when he only spit on me?
I want to bathe in your light
I want to be on the news
If I take your...
They say the sky used to be blue I don't quite believe it
It's probably always been the color that it is
And there were cotton candy clouds and birds to fly through it
Just stories we all love to tell our kids
So I'll close my electronic door and keep the cold outside
Hug my aluminium pillow so tight
And pray the radiation doesn't make me sick tonight
There used to be a wind wasn't caused by f...
I don't know how you did it but you.
let yourself in, yeah.
I don't know how you do it but you,
get under my skin, yeah.
Everything you do
makes me shake, makes me rattle makes me roll right over
be careful what you're wishing for
you might get more than you bargained for
I'm stuck on you
like a bad tattoo
I'm stuck on you
like a bad tattoo
I've heard an awful lot about you.
You made me real m...
On a dead-end street, in a dead-end town
There's a motel that I call home
Just a few small hopes and a few small dreams
Are all that place is resting on
Desiree lives two doors down
She's been there for way too long, oh, yeah
Sometime when she's feeling down
You know I hope she hears this song
On a bed of roses
Not beneath some motel light
On a bed of roses
Ooh, she deserves to sleep tonight
S...
Yea, street fightin' is lookin' for trouble
If you open your mouth, you're bound to rumble
Johnny looks tough, he's frozen the eyes
He keeps his mouth shut, he don't tell no lies
Johnny went out last night, got in a barroom fight
Embarrassed a jealous man in front of his cheating wife
The man said,"Tonight you won
But I'll tell you son, this one's far from over"
Johnny said
"Big talk is just t...
Darling I know you're sleeping
But there's something that I've just got to say
Wonder if you'll hear me while you're dreaming
Make a lifetime out of every day
Thanks to you now I know
All my dreams can come true
Blind faith in you, oh yeah
Like I got blind faith in you, oh yeah
Your eyes keep things well hidden
Just a hint of what you're holding inside
And the first day that I met you
I consid...
She's tall
Like the Eiffel tower
Fast
New York to Paris in half an hour
She's lean
She's a love machine
Probably take on the whole football team
Strong
As the day is long
Think you got her figured out
You find out you were wrong
She's long
As a limousine
Take your body places
That you've never, never seen
Hi ho away we go
Let's build a fire from coast to coast
Baby's on top, she's on a roll
Go...
You always change your colors
when you find yourself in a fix
And when you get yourself
in trouble
You just pack your bags and split
And your off to find a new love
Who doesn't know you
Like some do
Put on a smile like it's make up
Protection from the truth
If they don't have what you need
You won't need them right back
And if they gave you the world
You'd find something wrong with that
CHORUS...
Dirty, rotten, filthy, stinkin'
She's my cherry pie
Cool drink of water such a sweet surprise
Taste so good make a grown man cry
Sweet cherry pie, yeah
Woaw
Well, swingin' on the front porch, swingin' on the lawn
Swingin' where we want 'cause there ain't nobody home
Swingin' to the left and swingin' to the right
I think about baseball, swing all night, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Huh, swingin' in the livi...
So you think my exterior seems a little out of focus
Because I don't talk in cliches that people try to use to stroke us
I don't care too much for clicks and gangs and little sewing circles
If you want a place in this rat race I say run out and join the circus
If you look inside my head
You will see things that you probably shouldn't see
Because my outside is off-center
But I guarantee it's st...
I've got alligator shoes
And I've beeb makin' news
I've got plenty of women
I've got plenty of booze
Give me a shot
Walked into the spot light
At the local bar and grill
Find a down and dirty woman
Well I'm gonna take my fill
Look right into her bloodshot eyes and
Scream my honey, I'm gonna make you mine
I paid the tab
I called a cab
Went back to my place
Had a hell of a time
I get excited
I f...
If you want it, here it is, come and get it
Make your mind up fast
If you want it anytime, I can give it
But you better hurry 'cause it may not last
Did I hear you say that there must be a catch
Will you walk away from a fool and his money, sonny
If you want it here it is, come and get it
But you better hurry 'cause it's going fast
If you want it, here it is, come and get it
Make your mind up ...
Lyrics : Jani Lane / Music : Jani Lane and Rick Steier
I need some room to breathe
Listen, speak and follow free
Socially a refugee
I need some room to breathe
They want into my head
I push them out instead
Tear me into tiny pieces
They want into my head
Chorus
Trapped inside this place
I can?t move, it?s like living in a crawlspace
Bridge
I try to find myself a way out
But they come from all ...
Dirty rotten filthy stinking rich
Oh oh yeah
Italian cars as long as my street
I'm gonna wear exotic animals on my feet
Pretty rocks on my fingers, pretty bells on my toes
Lots of caviar for my mouth, maybe I'll even pierce my nose
Give me, give me just half a chance
To lead you in this corporate dance
I'll be dirty rotten filthy stinking rich
Sign it all in the palm of my hand
Nothing gonna g...
When I was a kid all I wanted to be
Was the meanest dude on the meanest machine
Now I'm going to wrong way on a one-way street
I never fit this society
I don't really mind
Doing my own time
The three choices I ever came to find
Were:Dead, Jail or Rock'n'Roll
Dead, Jail or Rock'n'Roll
Dead, Jail or Rock'n'Roll
Dead, Jail or Rock'n'Roll
I ain't looking for trouble but it's looking for me
The law...
Certain things you do really make me mad I must confess
Way the street light silhouette your thighs inside your dress
Wild child in the streets I think I see you, but I really don't know, who knows
One million miles an hour headed out to where the down boys go
Woh, can we rewind to where we've been?
Ooh, I wish you'd take a look and see the shape I'm in
Where the down boys go
Go
Where the down...
I know that it's evil
I know that it's got to be
I know I ain't doing much
Doing nothing means a lot to me
Living on a shoe string
A fifty cent millionaire
Open to charity
Rock 'n' roller welfare
Sitting in my Cadillac
Listening to my radio
Suzy baby get on in
Tell me where you want to go
I'm living in a nightmare
She's looking like a wet dream
I got myself a Cadillac
But I can't afford the ga...
She's got an iron will
She's gonna do what she thinks is right
I know she will
And as for me I'm not that silent
It's hard to live in a world this quiet
And if you want me to let you go
Well I think you should know
That I tried hard to live without you
But it doesn't work for me
And I tried not to think about you
But your in all my dreams
I can't stand living on my own
I can't stand staring in...
I keep talking to myself, but the words
Sound like some one else
I'm ready to bleed all this shit
From my veins
I'm willing to plead for a cure
To the pain
And I am amazed that I'm still
Semi-sane
CHORUS
I'm falling down
My world is spinning round
It feels like I'm flying
The feeling is lying
I'm falling down
Falling down
I'm a monster
I'm not well
No mirrors
So I cannot tell
There's a zoo on ...
Lyrics : Jani Lane, Rick Steier and Beau Hill / Music : Rick Steier and James Kottak
Mother should know father should go
Battered dreams and broken bones
Living hell when he?s at home
Fell so much pain
I?m not to blame
Cannot move cannot breathe
He should die instead of me
Some break away
Some choose to stay
But every scream kept inside
Leaves a scar either way
Chorus
We are on our own
We all ...
Take everything that I own
My destination's unknown
If I started to yell
Could you even tell
would it do any good
Mr. Misunderstood
I'm not asking for change
I know it sounds strange
CHORUS
But it feels kind of good
Feeling this bad
I'm invincible
At my all time low
And it feels good
yeah, feleing this bad
I'm at the end of my rope
I just remembered a joke
Have you heard the one
About the one ...
Lyrics : Jani Lane and Beau Hill / Music : Jerry Dixon and Jani Lane
There was sunshine and now there?s only rain
And blue skies you turned them into pain
Words were so fine I wanted everyone to know
What other people hold back
I loved the way you showed
I never noticed blood on you before
But everytime you pull another in
I see a little more
You control things you tell them your a friend
But ...
Love is a game of war
Ohhh ya ya
I dont need anyone especially
someone who leads me on
if you want a piece of me come on
all i want is all i need
little bit lovin guaranteed
and i dont know
and i dont know if i care where im going
ohh how can you change it
i dont know i dont know i dont knowww
aint that strange when
you rather be making love
Chours
We are like a game of war
we both try to hide...
Heart breaker, soul shaker
I've been told about you
Steamroller, midnight stroller
What they've been saying must be true
bridge:
Red hot mama
Velvet charmer
Time's come to pay your dues
chorus:
Now you're messin' with a
A son of a bitch
Now you're messin' with a son of a bitch
Now you're messin' with a
A son of a bitch
Now you're messin' with a son of a bitch
Talkin' jivey, poison ivy
You ain'...
Got a picture of your house
And you're standing by the door
It's black and white and faded
And it's looking pretty worn
See the factory that I worked
Silhouetted in the back
The memories are gray
But man, they're really coming back
I don't need to be the king of the world
As long as, I'm the hero of this little girl
Heaven, isn't too far away
Closer to it every day
No matter what your friends ...
