Nooner:
01. Surf Song |
Afternooner:
01. Ohh La La |
01. Surf Song
Cruising to the beach in my piece of shit
Got my surfboard jammed in and it barely fits
The sun pouring down and it floods the dash
Hula girls sways as I find my stash
Thumping hands tap to the beat of the street
The back sweating hard sticking to the seat
Got the Sublime pumping on the stereo
But my heads still thumping from the night before
But that's Okay, That's okay another day on it's way
Well the window's rolled down and the peddle to the floor
But the fog bank looms just a mile off of shore
It's only 10 am and the beach is packed
The girlies in thongs got my mind all sacked
Well the new swell is here and it's starting to show
Got the offshore winds and they're ready to blow
Pull out the board, wax up the stick
The duct-taped dings seem to do the trick
But that's Okay, That's okay another day on it's way
It's a beautiful day (yeah)
It's a beautiful day
Paddle out and dish it up, pull it back again
Rip it up and pull it up, feel like a friend
Find another day,
Complain another day,
Cuz everything melts away in a wave
Until you pour it out and pull it up, give it what you've got
Jack it up and fill it up, take it to the next notch
Take it all the way it's a beautiful day
Take it all the way, Yeah,
It's a beautiful day (yeah)
It's a beautiful day
Na, na, bla, bla, bla...
Sprinting across the sand, burn off my feet
Hit the surf running and don't miss a beat
Take my place bobbing, out in the swell
Turn and spin and paddle like hell
Feel the wave grabbing and jump to my feet
A bottom carve turn like I've never seen
Six quick snaps and a floater inside
kick out the back, a nice fucking ride
But that's Okay, That's okay another day on it's way
It's a beautiful day (yeah)
It's a beautiful day

02. Roll With The Punches
Well I'm a poor man/I feel no pain
Struggled half of my life a going against the grain
But I think I guess I only get a one shot at this
I'm gonna diiig every single second I've got, I've got to live
Another second/another went by
I killed another second, minute, hour, waisting my life
I'm gonna spend my waking hours doing something with myself
playing with the cards from the deck I'm dealt
gotta roll with the punches/run down the highway
Gonna turn all the pages/Gonna do it my way
I got the surfboard/got the full tank of gas
I'm gonna say goodbye to everyone as I pass
There gonna wonder where I'm going and when I'll be back
As they waist away their lives working for the man
I'll get some shit job/when I need some cash
I can always strum my guitar when I need a stash
I'm gonna check out what we've got on the far west coast
california's great but so is mex-i-co
Ocean Beach, Point Reyes, Waddel Creek, Steamer Lane
Fort Point, Cardiff Reef, Ocean Side, Pacific Beach
Morro Bay, Manhattan Beach, Rockaway, La Jolla Reefs
Todos Santos, Rosarito, Ensenada, Down to Cabo....
Yeah, You might find me there...
I won't pay taxes/I'll pay no rent
I'll never vote again, so fuck the government
well, I'll get myself some piece of shit micro bus
I'm gonna live off the coast, the most of both of us
I won't need TV/Or Girlfriend
I've got a big ol' stack of porn-o that would scare my friends
I think I'll sleep in every morning and I'll surf all day
Maybe strum my guitar, I think I'll live that way

03. Share
You've got to share / Share the moment
You've got to share...Share the love
You've got to share
Share your time together...
Cuz you never know when that will come to pass
You've got to love / Love one another
Until it's time, time to let them go
You've got to hold / On to each other
While you can, Cuz you just never know
Sitting in the grass, pass/sucking on the wet ass
end of a fat blunt / taking in the warm front
Sipping on a cold beer / breathing in the clean air
Chilling with my good friends/Here's to hoping that it never ends
You've got to take / Take those chances
Dig inside your heart to find a clue
You've got to make
Make your time together...
All that it can be to see you through
Sitting in the grass, pass/sucking on the wet ass
end of a fat blunt / taking in the warm front
Sipping on a cold beer / breathing in the clean air
Chilling with my good friends/Here's to hoping that it never ends
Chilling n' spilling the loving I'm feeling / I'm holding the tone that I'm always believing
Flowing, unknowing meticulous growing / Last of the circle to get what your doing
Dealing with feelings, but take what you get
Your falling in love, but you only just met
If I got the chance to do it, man, i'd do it all over again
If I had, If I had, If I had that chance...

04. The Raven
Wake up in the morning / a suicidal warning
Pull the shades back up to expose the sun
Walk outside or get a ride just get your ass there on time
Cuz we'll leave without everyone
we never did.
Everyone knows where to meet/Just behind pier 23
Don't forget your 12 pack of beer
The weathers great I have to say It's gonna be a perfect day
And we haven't lost a single life yet
we never did...never did, never did, never did...
Oh! Drink it on up, tilt it on back and pass the rest on
Oh, Don't let these days pass you by, cuz they won't last that long
Rich is making drinks down stairs / Pass him down the empty beers
Could someone pass another one up?
Kinda sacked, the boat is packed / Christeen's puking off the back
If the coast guard see's us, man, we're fucked
but they never did.
Brady's got the music wired / The Bob Marley's still required
To get this vessel all in the mood
Get to Sam's is all we've plannned / Docking we could sure use a hand
Before the waitress brings us our food
she never did...never did, never did, never did...
Oh! Drink it on up, tilt it on back and pass the rest on
Oh, Don't let these days pass you by, cuz they won't last that long
I'd like to see, be it, feel it, need it,
Don't repeat the shit your seeing, dealing with the feeling that your needing (its a)
long ride, high...tide...brain's fried, I think it's done, I think it's leaking out the other side
Go low, so-lo, ain't got no posse cuz their getting loaded on the boat
I'd like to see, be it, feel it, need it,
Oh! Drink it on up, tilt it on back and pass the rest on
Oh, Don't let these days pass you by, cuz they won't last that long

05. Blueprint
It's such a lonely world / So many chances to mess it up
And she's such a lonely girl
Stirring her drink never looking up
Well this bar's full of people who never will meet
the just stare at each other cuz their too shy to speak
you can bend them break them, never relate them
there's just something wrong with the blue print
It's such a lonely world / So many chances to mess it up
And he's such a lonely boy
He's got 23 years left in lockup
Well he's raised in the projects, lost his dad at just 4
Grew up in jail after he settled the score
You can bend them break them never mistake them
there's just something wrong with the blue print
Well these crimes they are signs
It's just all in the lines don't you know
Nobody's perfect it's all just design of the mold - oh no
You can fight it all you can
But you're only a man
It's such a lonely world / So many chances to mess it up
And he's such a lonely man
Finds it hard just to get up
Cuz he lost his wife sitting by the side of her bed
He's two hours late now he's wishing he's dead
You can bend them, break them never relate them
There's just something wrong with the blueprint
Well these crimes they are signs
It's just all in the lines don't you know
Nobody's perfect it's all just design of the mold - oh no
You can fight it all you can
But you're only a man
He's lonely, She's lonely, Someone's more lonely than you
He's lonely, She's lonely, Someone's more lonely than you
He's lonely, She's lonely, Someone's more lonely than you

06. More Sex Than Me
Every night I'm down/I'm down I take it
Listening to the sounds, the walls their shakin'
Bang/Bang/banging on floor boards
That shit is driving me crazy
Can't stand the rumors but they're coming on
Might as well just lay down and get it on
Banging on the town and down you make it
One more sound I hear, I can't take it
It always seems like everybody/Everybody I know/
Every body's getting more sex than me
It always seems like everybody/Everybody I know/
Every body's getting more sex than me
I said Hey! I said Ho! Fooling around I said/Fooling around
I said Hey! I said Ho! Fooling around I said/Fooling around
Every morning, afternoon and evening
Big o pieces Plaster falling from the ceiling
It's a crack down / Down to the floor boards
Every day reminding me to get more
Everyone's talking about their all night session
Work is all a buzz, a buzz of confessions
and all I got are tales of shit that I heard
(through the walls) God damn I need to get a girl
It always seems like everybody/Everybody I know/
Every body's getting more sex than me
It always seems like everybody/Everybody I know/
Every body's getting more sex than me
I said Hey! I said Ho! Fooling around I said/Fooling around
I said Hey! I said Ho! Fooling around I said/Fooling around
I got the tension, did I mention
my twisted point of view to you
Cuz it's nothing I can't get through
It's just this banging, that I'm hating
Always reminding me of you
and the shit that we we used to do...
It's got me falling, all recalling all the balling and the stalling
It always seems like everybody/Everybody I know/
Every body's getting more sex than me
It always seems like everybody/Everybody I know/
Every body's getting more sex than me
I said Hey! I said Ho! Fooling around I said/Fooling around
I said Hey! I said Ho! Fooling around I said/Fooling around

07. This Stuff
I met this girls family, her mother had it in for me
Daddy thought i drank to much but he's a tool
I could take them out for free, but jail don't sound to good to me
I guess I'll find myself another girl
Every day's another chance another girl another glance
another shot to clear my mind It happens all the time
just when I think I've got a link, I gotta pour myself a drink
cuz something goes wrong, like every time
Another girl I liked a lot, fake blond hair but really hot
Unfortunately she turned out to be a bitch
A girl who liked to play the games, broke my heart but that's okay
Life goes on anyway, damn i gotta switch
Every day's another chance another girl another glance
another shot to clear my mind It happens all the time
just when I think I've got a link, I gotta pour myself a drink
cuz something goes wrong, like every time
I/Don't/Need/To/Be/Holding on to this stuff
I/Don't/Need/To/Be/Holding on to this stuff
I/Don't/Need/To/Be/Holding on to this stuff
Cuz life is too short/got lot's of fish in the sea
I'm casting out another line to see what comes swimming to me
a Different girl way back in school was kinda nuts but kinda cool
I've always had that soft spot for red hair
Little then did i know, cute little thing would turn psycho
And stalk my ass, after class, damn, she had no fear
Every day's another chance another girl another glance
another shot to clear my mind It happens all the time
just when I think I've got a link, I gotta pour myself a drink
cuz something goes wrong, like every time
I/Don't/Need/To/Be/Holding on to this stuff
I/Don't/Need/To/Be/Holding on to this stuff
I/Don't/Need/To/Be/Holding on to this stuff
Cuz life is too short/got lot's of fish in the sea
I'm casting out another line to see what comes swimming to me

08. Unmistakable (for Jim and Eva)
Ya gotta take the time to look, took another look
to find the one you need
They Finally found a chance to ground,
ground themselves around, around the ones they need
I've seen that look in their eyes and the fires,
the desires if you try and it's unmistakable
They got the love and it's right on this time,
if you look you will find it's unmistakable
Ya gotta take the time to look, took another look to find the one you need
I think you've seen the two i mean,
i mean that's the reason why, we're all here
To join their two lonely soles, patchin' up all the holes
when it's cold and it seems crystal clear
I've seen that look in their eyes and the fires,
the desires if you try and it's unmistakable
They got the love and it's right on this time,
if you look you will find it's unmistakable
I think you've seen the two i mean, i mean that's the reason why, we're all here

09. So Cold
Turn around, I doubt it
Never would I live without it
Shelling out my money for the love I can't live without
Here she comes again
She says he's just another friend
But that's one friend I know I can live without
She's got my mind in line
And Lying to me every night
Pushing out the pieces and pull em' all back again
Pick her up at home
She's always on that telephone
Chatting to another man, catting and it's oh so cold...
And it feels so cold
And it's getting old
How could I be
That I don't know
Ditched that girl eventually
Listened to the things they told me
Finally found some fool to take my own advice
Here I am at home
Watching TV all alone
Bored out of my skull bored out of my mind
Couldn't take it, Had to break it
On the floor, more, more times than I could stand it
Couldn't fake it, had to shake it
out the door for more drinks than I could handle...
And it feels so cold
And it's getting old
How could I be
That I don't know
Turn around, I doubt it
Never would I live without it
Shelling out my money for the love I can't live without
Here she comes again
She says he's just another friend
But that's one friend I know I can live without

10. California
California's got the sunshine, year round, cheap wine
Fresh waves / Hot babes, Lather on the sunscreen
Warm days, Cool nights, Everything is just right
Soft Sand, last tan, sleepin' on the rooftop
California, California...he said I ain't never leaving you
California's got the girl I love, the mountain's rising up above
The beach scene, so clean, parties raging every night
The clean air, millionaire, breathtaking swimwear
Fake boobs, boob tube, something's always going on
California, California...he said I ain't never leaving you.
California's got the earthquake, mudslides keep awake
big sharks, homeless parks, traffic jams round the clock
No rain, insane, all the kids on cocaine
Crap luck, dumb struck, man i think i love this place
When i get drinking, man i'm always thinking that...
my states better than your states,
better than my states, better than all the states put together
California's got the porn stars, strip clubs, wild fires
Hot bods, street rods, everybody's packing heat
The wet sand, rock band, out to get a nice tan
tan lines, parking fines, gotta do what you can
California's got the nudist beach, freak shows for the world to see
Height Street, bare feet, Democrats, they own this state
Divorce rate, sounds great, unless you've got yourself a mate
rocks stars, cool bars, come once you're never far from
California, California...he said I ain't never leaving you.
California's got the earthquake, mudslides keep awake
big sharks, homeless parks, traffic jams round the clock
No rain, insane, all the kids on cocaine
Crap luck, dumb struck, man i gotta ditch this place
When he get's drinking, man he's always thinking that...
my states better than your states,
better than my states, better than all the states put together

11. Had A Dream
I had a dream the other day
I didn't cry, didn't try, didn't know what to do
I had a dream the other day
(that) They're shooting from the buildings and they're dressed in civil clothes
and I'm trying to take their guns, but who's got em' no one knows
And those bad mother fuckers with their pain and their struggles
and the things that they do to you, the things that they do to me
I couldn't cry, couldn't try, couldn't know what to do
Cuz we're just pawns and their pieces, we're just pawns in their pieces
In their games and their struggles, and their names are all muddled
Because we never know, never know what to do
pulling down the covers now/pulling down the covers now
nothin's gonna make it now/nothin's gonna shake it now
And the dreams of this war/ and the dreams of this war...
Cool down...Cool down...Cool down
I had a dream the other day
I couldn't breath, couldn't see, couldn't keep the sand from my eyes
I had a dream the other day
(that) There's explosions all around and they're shooting on the ground
and the bad guys are clinging to their guns, ears are ringing
And those bad mother fuckers, they're insane with rebuttal
and the things that they do to you, the things that they do to me
And they're cruising down the street like a runaway freight train
Killing everything in sight, I'm proud I think, but that ain't right
pulling down the covers now/pulling down the covers now
nothin's gonna make it now/nothin's gonna shake it now
And the dreams of this war/ and the dreams of this war...
Cool down...Cool down...Cool down
I had a dream the other day
That the world was in love, and I thought I saw a dove
And the boys all came home and no one was alone
but those bad mother fuckers, in their ties and their lovers
Sitting safe at home cuz they voted that I go
to some place far away and blow away my enemy
while the politicians talk about it, and the politicians talk about it
four more days and four more ways to die and four more days four more days to die
4 more years, 4 more years, I got 4 more years of this...

12. Last Wave
When I go I'm gonna take this wave off into the sunset
When I get there man, I'll never get wet
Gonna step right off into / into the other side
And then I'm gonna take in and then I'm gonna make it in
Gonna take this time gonna take it all to
Find my mom / gonna find out
how she's been / And tell her how much (how much) I've
missed her since she's gone
I'm gonna take this wave / Man I hope they're waiting there
With open arms, and a case of beer
But first I'm gonna shake hand of everyone before me
Everyone I've ever known, Everyone I've ever met.
take your time / Face it all some day
Your another player in this life and man you've got to play
can't just sit there waiting for life to pass you by (gotta)
gotta catch it from behind /and take/ it for a ride
Oh...you've got to live your life
you've got to make it count
before your time
Before I go I'm gonna need some time to say goodbye to all of my
family and friends, cuz i'm just parts of them
and all the shit i've picked up / from each one of them
and every thing I've given back / and all the times I got off track
give my shit / gonna give it all to
someone who / ain't got no-thing
And maybe they'll have better luck making
something better of themselves
I'm gonna find some kid / who's wants the music in his sole
and give him all my guitars / cuz I don't need them no
more where i'm headed / and man I think you get it
Cuz I'm never coming back, and I'm never headed back
take your time / Face it all some day
Your another player in this life and man you've got to play
can't just sit there waiting for life to pass you by (gotta)
gotta catch it from behind /and take/ it for a ride
Oh...you've got to live your life
you've got to make it count
before your time
The video games / The TV & the movies
Waisting all you time / The pop-op ads are useless
Useless time spent / The useless times are fruitless
Poinless times / A waist of life / It's not too late to change your life
Oh...you've got to live your life
you've got to make it count
before your time

Sitting in the sand like a stretched out A rubber band
Chillin to the music and the waves along the strand

Pulling on this dream you see, Drinking in the scenery
Sipping on the the thoughts of the pretty girls that i can see
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la
I watch the girls and go
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la

02. Something
There must be something in the water that's making me feel so good
There must be something in the sky above, the moon the sun some love
There must be something in the way, the way i see the world
There must be something out there man, cuz i'm really feeling good
But it's got to be something...but man i can't figure it out
it's got to be something...but it's blowing my mind out
There must be something in the sand the falls between my toes
There must be something in those waves out there, but man who really knows?

There must be something out there, something somewhere, it's got to be this place!
But it's got to be something...but man i can't figure it out
it's got to be something...but it's blowing my mind out
I'm just dreaming bout kicking back scheming out
Living for the moment like the wind i wish i owned it

(SOLO AREA)
There must be something in the architecture making up this day
There must be some kind of cosmic forces to make today today
There must be something in the blood that's coursing though my veins
There must be something out there man, for my life i can't explain
But it's got to be something...but man i can't figure it out
it's got to be something...but it's blowing my mind out
I'm just dreaming bout kicking back scheming out

03. Smile So Wide
I got some luck last night / You can take a bite
Met a little cutie she was looking for ride
Now who am i not to oblige / When a crazy little lady goes n' hops inside
I got my pants on the table / Got my shirt on the floor
She's ripping off her clothing / That's one girl your can't ignore
She's knocking down that freakin' door / Said Damn that
girl is hot / Gonna get me some more
Baby's got a big ol bag she pulls out of the drawer
Wondering what it is exactly that she's got for me in store
Praying that it won't be painful, someday we'll see...na, na, na,

I've got a smile so wide / All gonna come, gonna come inside
I've got a smile so wide / Everybody's talking bout climbing inside
I've got a smile so wide / Ever-gonna, ever-gonna, ever-gonna get inside
I got the drip drip, drop drop, checking on the mountain top
Only think i'm thinking bout / checking out that flip flop
Down...on the beach... sitting in the sand soaking up the summer heat
Down...by the reef...surfing all day just my buddies and me
I---'ve got to go...quit my job, leave this place head out on the road
I---'ve got to go...quit my job, leave this place head out on the road

If you need a little, take a little you can be my guest
Now who am i not to help out / When you need
something, man, i'm there no doubt
You can keep my stuff / If you think it'll get you by
Otherwise leave it for the next one there in line
Everytime i go and try / To help the ones a little
less / Fortunate in life
Something about their smile warms me up inside
Knowing that i did a little bit to get them by
Praying that it won't be painful, someday we'll see...na, na, na,
I got a smile so wide / Everybody's gonna party inside
I've got a smile so wide / All gonna come, gonna come inside
I've got a smile so wide / Everybody's talking bout climbing inside
I've got a smile so wide / Ever-gonna, ever-gonna, ever-gonna get inside
Gonna get in side...
Gonna get in side...
Gonna get in side...

Man I tell you baby / Got-ta go and take it
Got-ta keep on pushing / Man you gonna make it
This time, this time, this time you can make it through
I'm taking a bets / That you can't forget
You won't feel hate / Hope you relate
It's the sun and sky shining down on you
Everybody says / That they know what's best
But how could that be? / Cuz they don't know you
Everybody claims / That they know who to blame
But how can they blame anybody / They haven't a clue
Life can drive you crazy / Things (shit) can end up hazy
Dreams can often Vanish / Leave you sitting lazy
But man i know, i know you can make it through
I'm here to try / To help you on this ride
Just takes some time / Set free in your mind /
It's just that something out here wants to see you through

If you need someone then baby, I'll sit with you
If you need someone then baby, I'll sit with you
05. Feel It
Do you care what people say when they're standing in your way
Not walking in your shoes / Even when they say ...They feel it
No matter what they do / Or what they put me through
Advice they wanna give / Gonna make it through ...And feel it
Turn it up loud, downtown where the beat began
Open up the windows and listen to the groove within
Turn it up loud, now, turn it up loud, now turn it up loud!
Do you hear the drums lock / the bass they tick tock
Feel it in your chest / They hear it down the block ...They feel it
There's something in your soul / Going overload
Feeling like your chest is ready to explode ...You feel it
Turn it up loud, downtown where the beat began
Open up the windows and listen to the groove within
Turn it up loud, now, turn it up loud, now turn it up loud!
Because I've got no money / I've got no time
I got no fancy job / But baby that's alright
I've got a crap load of friends and ice cold beer
I've got a nice 6 string / & nothing to fear
Because I waste my life / The one I choose
Spend half my life buzzed off cheep booze
I've got a crap load of friends and ice cold beer
I've got a nice 6 string / & nothing to fear
Can You Feel it? Can you Feel it?
Aw man I feel it!
(MUSIC/SOLO AREA)
Oh no, whatchya gonna do / Everyone's trashed in this entire room
Oh man, i think that you can take it / No time for me to explain it
Everybody's talking about everybody else
Nobody's looking back at themselves
Everybody's burning out / Everybody's churning out / Everybody's getting down
Do you hear it in the night / Damn that stuff is tight
The Beat is sounding Fat / Guitars are sitting right ...I Feel it
Something hanging round / The vibe in this old town
Put a smile on my face / Whenever she's around ...I Feel it
Turn it up loud, downtown where the beat began
Open up the windows and listen to the groove within
Turn it up loud, now, turn it up loud, now turn it up loud!
Can You Feel it? Can you Feel it?
Aw man I feel it!
Can You Feel it? Can you Feel it?
Aw man I feel it!
06. How You Gonna
It's been a long day / got nothing to say
Nothing wrong with kicking back and drifting on your way
But you may find yourself gone, to old and gray
Wishing that you didn't go and waste your life away
I said now how long, how much time you think you've got
could be 80 years or right around the block
because it's ticking, ticking, time it never stops
what the hell you doing man is that the best you've got?
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
This one girl i dated, man was she sedated
Locked in her inside her little world of TV where she waited
She had no hope, no dreams, no life, no aim
No love, no hate, no time to wait
I said now how long, how much time you think you've got
could be 80 years or right around the block
because it's ticking, ticking, time it never stops
what the hell you doing man is that the best you've got?
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
(Solo Area)
The rich mans shot, same time upon the clock
Poor man loses out only if he chooses
Equal times gained it's how you play the game
dealing with the time your given man it's all the same
Well, some day when i go... Man i think i know
If I make it there, clouds will fill the air
Angels gather round, with that loving sound
And those big ol' wings, They'll turn to me and sing
And they'll sing
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by
07. Here She Comes Again
Oh, here she comes again / Just what i needed
This time, I can not pretend / That I don't need her
All this time i acted like a fool
Pretending I don't need you
Passed you up and went on my own way - damn i'm sorry
Never need everything to go and be alright
Needed time to spend alone to think 'bout shit tonight
Burned it down, smoke wisped away, Blowing through these city streets
Took a while, but now I'm smiling, and every thing's just nice n' sweet
Oh, here she comes again / Just what i needed
This time, I can not pretend / That I don't need her
All this time i acted like a fool
Pretending I don't need you
Passed you up and went on my own way - damn i'm sorry
08. Burn It Down
What makes you a better man?
What makes you a better man than that old man sitting in the park
Beggin' for your change cuz that's all he's got
What makes you a better person?
What makes you a better person than that same man 30 years ago
He's got the perfect life and a perfect home
Looking back you see, but don't believe me...
Man, we're all the same as anyone can see
So, go (a)head and burn it down
go head and light it up
Burn that down got that wall that separate us all
oh...oh, oh, oh
Burn down that thinking/ man you got me drinking?
It's a mighty long way to get back where you're kickin' it back home
What make you a lesser woman?
What makes you a lesser woman than that pretty girl in the magazine
Anorexic, superficial, coked up queen
What makes you a lesser soul than?
What makes you a lesser soul than that, young, man, of cloth,
spent his whole damn life trying to make stuff up
Looking back you see, but don't believe me...
Man, we're all the same as anyone can see
So, go (a)head and burn it down
go head and light it up
Burn that down got that wall that separate us all
oh...oh, oh, oh
Burn down that thinking/ man you got me drinking?
It's a mighty long way to get back where you're kickin' it back home
(SOLO AREA)
Hey, oh, whatchya gonna do
I'm gonna get a oneway ticket and i'll send you back to school
Down, line, take it every time
Cuz your going, but now knowing what your doing with your life
Enter/tain me is all you ever say
Why don't you drop another drink until you slip on your way
Cuz exist...resist...persist...exist
I said now oh....
So, go (a)head and burn it down
go head and light it up
Burn that down got that wall that separate us all
oh...oh, oh, oh
Burn down that thinking/ man you got me drinking?
It's a mighty long way to get back where you're kickin' it back home
OH...
09. Rollin'
Well i'm mutilated, compensated all the shit i ever hated
Everything i ever needed all the times i've been sedated
Don't drink much / i don't know why
always seems like i'm too drunk to drive
But that's ok, i moved away and sold my shit the other day
And now i'm sitting in the car waiting for you
you don't miss me / but damn she's fine
It always turns out to waist my time...
So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling
I took a cooler in, a fifth of gin and mixed it with a little grin
And shared it all night with a sexy pretty little thing
I'd kinda like to see / Maybe it's just me
Streaking through the halls of this of this lobby
Cuz i don't drink that much / Sometimes i lie
Always seems like i'm too drunk to drive
Because you don't miss me / but damn she's cool
I always turn out to play the fool
So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling, So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling
Well I raised the bar and crashed my car and drove it to a foreign shore
and pushed that little fucker until it wouldn't go no more
I sold that beast / And hitchhiked home
Stuck with a phycho and no telephone
But that's alright, I lived in spite to tell the tale of that night
And now i'm sitting in the bar waiting for you
Getting trashed / But that's just fine
Nothing else good to do with my time
So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling
10. Good Time
I was sitting up all night / waiting for you last night / for you to come around
But you never did / must have been FAKING IT (talking smack/shit) / when /
When you said that you would
I was tired of getting lied to / take it in stride to / tired of being tied to/
tried to be through... from me and you
So I called up an old friend / just to console in / she said that she'd swing by
It started off innocent / talking 'bout the government / thought it'd clear my mind
But the next thing you know / we were taking of our clothes
...rolling on the floor / tearing up the night
going back for more / going back for more
We had a good time / a good time
Everybody's talking about the good time that we
had last night / When we were giving it a try
Running through the motions and tearing up the night
A good time / a good time
Just...thought i'd tell you that you can...
get back / get back / get back on that track
Get back you can go if you've got to go
Next morning when we woke up / felt a little awkward / until i saw her smile
Wondered how we'll play this / Wondered how we'll say this - this all went down
We decided just go back / Like it all was back / Like it all was the day before
When we were friends...nothing more.
Could i say I want to go back?
Could i say I wish i'd never played this game at all?
Could i say I want to go back to that flow
Before the hook up and my good luck, man/hell no
We had a good time / a good time
Everybody's talking about the good time that we
had last night / When we were giving it a try
Running through the motions and tearing up the night
A good time / a good time
Just...thought i'd tell you that you can...
get back / get back / get back on that track
Get back you can go if you've got to go
(SOLO AREA)
Could i say I want to go back?
Could i say I wish i'd never played this game at all?
Could i say I want to go back to that flow
Before the hook up and my good luck, man/hell no
We had a good time / a good time
Everybody's talking about the good time that we
had last night / When we were giving it a try
Running through the motions and tearing up the night
A good time / a good time
Just...thought i'd tell you that you can...
get back / get back / get back on that track
Get back you can go if you've got to go
11. She Said
(steve...I need lyrics)
12. Beautiful
Left the coast by a / half past five and i
don't need to believe/ in the things that she says
...oh no cuz she's beautiful
Freed my mind with a / long ass drive to the
spot where we met and/ talked and sweat our love
...oh no cuz she's beautiful
Every time i see her i just loose my mind when she comes near
Everything, everything, I see you...oh, no, no, cuz she's beautiful
Took the time to stay / up all night to be
Breaking stuff that you left sitting round here
...oh no cuz she's beautiful
Broke the TV and Smashed those CDs and
Trashed everything that you held in your heart as dear
...oh no cuz she's beautiful
Every time i see her i just loose my mind when she comes near
Everything, everything, I see you...oh, no, no, cuz she's beautiful
I feel! / Lost myself when ever she is oh...
So Near! / Blown away the pieces that you leave
Reveal...EVERYTHING I FEEL CUZ SHE'S BEAUTIFUL!
(SOLO AREA)

13. Free
Oh, I need... To get outside so i can go and
Feel the breeze... Blowing through my soul
Until I feel at ease.... & Disappear into the distance
Oh man, whatchya gonna do this time
Stuck inside, cuz you can't hide, for your whole life
Dig down, way down deep inside
Strap it up and fill it up and take a ride (I said now oh...)
Oh...I need... To strip on down to basics just
Once, you'll see... You don't need that fancy STUFF (shit)
To feel free... Just friends and love and shelter
Hey man, do you really live like that
Materialistic / Pessimistic / All that crap
Let go / Slow mo / Just relax
Possessions own you if you let them (I said now oh...)
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
I don't / Need to / Be the one that holds you back
I don't / Need to / Be that monkey on your back
I don't / Need to / Get outside and push you through
I got / My own / Stuff going on, good luck to you!
Oh, go ahead / Sell your STUFF (shit) or give it back
Everything I own is just a joke a toy a waste of time!
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
YOU SHOULD TOO SOMEDAY YOU'LL BE
(SOLO AREA)
Op-en dreams... Don't give up on the things you'd like
To achieve... Nothing is impossible if
You believe... In yourself when you're on your own
Hey man don't you wanna a try?
For all that STUFF (shit) that you can't fit into your life.
Lazy / Crazy / Hypnotize
Coasting through this life is such a waste of time (I said now oh...)
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
YOU SHOULD TOO SOMEDAY YOU'LL BE
YOU SHOULD TOO SOMEDAY YOU'LL BE
YOU SHOULD TOO SOMEDAY YOU'LL BE
YOU SHOULD TOO SOMEDAY YOU'LL BE
