1. LAND OFSUNSHINE

You have a winning way, so keep it
Your future
You are an angel heading for a land of sunshine
And fortune is smiling upon you
Prepare for a series of a comfortable miracles
From fasting to feasting
And life to you is a dashing, bold adventure
So sing, and rejoice
And look for the dream that keeps coming back
Your future
Pat yourself on the back and give yourself a handshake
Cuz everything is not yet lost...
(Does life seem worthwhile to you?)
Here's how to order!
Does life seem worthwhile to you?
Do others push you around?
Is age against you?
Sing and rejoice!
Does life seem worthwhile to you?
Does emotional music
Have quite an effect on you?
I-I can help-I can help you-I can help you help yourself!
Here's how to order!
Varicose
Comatose
Senile
Caffeine
Pour shame all over us
Harden into a crust
Cement
Forget the glamour and
Mumble a jackhammer
Under your breath
Hide your face in the curtains
Better unsaid, so close
And it rolls off the tongue
Almost
The world expects the pose
Perfectly natural
Loosen up
Smearing wet concrete
And swearing you'll never be
Caught
At your weakest, etched in stone
And we're frozen here, peeking


2. MIDLIFE CRISIS

Go on and wring my neck
Like when a rag gets wet
A little discipline
For my pet genius
My head is like lettuce
Go on dig your thumbs in
I cannot stop giving
I'm thirty-something
Sense of security
Like pockets jingling
Midlife crisis
Suck ingenuity
Down through the family tree
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleedin' enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...
What an inheritance
The salt and the kleenex
Morbid self attention
Bending my pinky back
A little discipline
A donor by habit
A little discipline
Rent an opinion
Sense of security
Holding blunt instrument
I'm a perfectionist
And perfect is a skinned knee
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleedin' enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...


3. AS THE WORM TURNS

One day you're thinking that maybe you're feeling better
And you're probably an OK person, if only you had a job...
Through the hollow tombs can see them
Through their mouths I can hear them praying for pain
But it's only a game

Listen, man, I know
That things are really rough
And everybody gets you
And life is really tough
But I know that deep down inside
There's a feeling that rides
All the way to the end

Thursday you sit in your room with the lights turned out
And you don't answer the door
Friday morning looks sunny and bright
Like it's going to be a good day
And it would be if only you had a job

Time is on your side, you're young
Don't waste your time today

4. RV

Backside melts into a sofa
My world, my TV, and my food
Besides listening to my belly gurgle
Ain't much else to do
Yeah, I sweat a lot
Pants fall down every time I bend over
And my feet itch
Yeah-I married a scarecrow
I hate you
Talking to myself
Everibody's starin' at me
I'm only bleedin'
Someone taps me on the shoulder every 5 minutes
Nobody speaks English anymore
Would anybody tell me I was gettin' stupider?
I hate you
Talking to myself
You don't feel it after awhile
You take the beating
I'm a swingin' guy
Throw a belt over the shower curtain rod
And swing - - -
Toss me inside a Hefty
And put me in the ground
A drink needs me
I don't
I ain't about to guzzle no tears
So kiss my ass
Newscasters, coakroaches, and desserts
I hate you
Talkin' to myself
Everibody's starin' at me
I'm only bleedin'
Where are the kids?
Maybe pregnant or on drugs
Or on wel fare on top of the world
Don't he honorrol on parole on the Dodgers
On the back ofmilk cartons on stakes
In the middle of cornfields
On covers of future history books
On old lady's mantles walkin' on water nailed on crosses
I think it's time I had a talk with my kids
I'll just tell 'em what my daddy told me
You ain't never gonna amount nothin'


5. WE CARE A LOT

We care a lot
We care a lot
We care a lot about disasters, fires, floods and killer bees
About Los Angeles falling in the sea
About starvation and the food that Live Aid bought
About disease, baby, Rock Hudson, Rock
Yeah!

We care a lot
We care a lot
We care a lot about the gamblers and the pushers and the freaks
About the people who live off the street
About the welfare of all the boys and girls
About you people cause we're out to save the world

Yeah!

And it's a dirty job but someone's got to do it!

We care a lot about the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines
About the NY, SF, and LAPD
About you people, about your guns
About the wars you're fighting
Gee, that looks like fun

We care a lot about the Cabbage Patch, The Smurfs, and DMC
About Madonna and we cop for Mr.T
About the little things, the bigger things we top
About you people, yeah, you bet we care a lot

And it's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it...


6. EPIC

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can't have it

It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

What is it? - It's it
What is it? - It's it
What is it? - It's it
What is it? - It's it

What is it? - It's it
What is it? - It's it
What is it? - It's it
What is it?...

You want it all but you can't have it. Yea-yea-yeah
It's in your face but you can't grab it

It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it? Yea-yea-yeah

It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it? Yea-yea-yeah

It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it? Yea-yea-yeah

It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it?
It's it - What is it? Yea-yea-yeah

It's it…


7. FROM OUT OF NOWHERE

Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
You splash me with beauty and pull me down
‘Cause you come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare

Obsession rules me. I'm yours from the start
I know you see me. Our eyes interlock
‘Cause you come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...

Sifting to the bottom, every day for two
All energy funnels, all becomes you
‘Cause you come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And it hurts inside
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...
Good-bye


8. THE REAL THING

I know the feeling
It is the real thing
The essence of the truth

The perfect moment
That golden moment
I know you feel it too

I know the feeling
It is the real thing
You can't refuse the embrace...

It's like the pattern below the skin
You gotta reach out and pull it all in
And you feel like you're too close
So you swallow another dose

The pinnacle of happiness
Filling up your soul
You don't think you can take any more
You never wanna let go

To touch the roots of experience
The most basic ingredients
To see the unseen glitter of life
And feel the dirt, grief, anger and strife

Cherish the certainly of now
It kills you a bit at a time
Cradle the inspiration
It will leave you writhing on the floor...

This is so unreal, what I feel
This nourishment, life is bent
Into a shape I can hold
A twist of fate, all my own
Just grit your teeth, make no sound
Take a step away and look around
Just clench your fist and close your eyes
Look deep inside, hypnotize
The whisper is but a shout
That's what it is all about
Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray
You will never let it slip away

Like the sacred song that someone sings through you …through you
Like the flesh so warm that the thorn sticks into …into
Like the dream you know one day will come to life …life
Try to hold on just a little longer …longer, stronger …stronger

It's the jewel of victory
The chasm of misery
And once you have bitten the core
You will always know the flavor

The split second of divinity
You drink up the sky
All of heaven is in your arms
You know the reason why

It's right there, all by itself
And what you are, there is nothing else
You're growing a life within a life
The lips of wonder kiss you inside

And when it's over the feeling remains
It all comes down to this
The smoke clears, I see what it is
That made me feel this way...

I know the feeling
It is the real thing
The essence of the truth

The perfect moment
That golden moment
I know you feel it too

I know the feeling
It is the real thing
You can't refuse the embrace...

This is so unreal, what I feel
Flood, sell your soul, feel the blood
Pump through your veins, can't explain
The element that's everything
Just clench your fist and close your eyes
Look deep inside, hypnotize
Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray
You will never let it slip away
Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray
You will never let it slip away
You will never let it slip away
You will never let it slip away

Like the echoes of your childhood laughter, ever after
Like the first time love urged you to take it's guidance, in silence
Like your heartbeat when you realize you're dying, but you're trying
Like the way you cry for a happy ending, ending, ending, ending, ending, ending,...
I know


9. UNDERWATER LOVE

Looking down into the water
It's hard to make out your face
If our love is drowning, then why
Do I feel so out of place?

Bubbling up to the surface
Are you getting a breath of fresh air?
Forever longing to make you mine
But I can't escape your stare...

Liquid seeps into your lungs
But your eyes look so serene
It's wonderful how the surface ripples
But you're perfect, and I cannot breathe

Forever longing to make you mine
But I can't escape your stare...

Hold me closer, keep me near
My underwater love
Hold me closer, keep me near
I'll never get enough

Touch me from below
I'll never let you go
Touch me from below
I'll never let you go
Touch me from below
I'll never let you go
But I can't escape

Hold me closer, keep me near
My underwater love
Hold me closer, keep me near
I'll never get enough

Hold me closer, keep me near
My underwater love
Hold me closer, keep me near
I'll never get enough

…
Touch me from below
I'll never let you go
Touch me from below
I'll never let you go
Touch me from below
I'll never let you go


10. SURPRISE! YOU'RE DEAD!

Surprise! You're dead!
Ha ha ha! Open your eyes

See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it
When you were alive and when you were in love
And when I took it from you!

It's not over yet
You don't remember?
I won't let you forget
The hatred I bestowed
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
From my teeth and my tongue
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
Now you are mine
I'll keep killing you until the end of time

Surprise! You're dead!
Guess what?
It never ends...

The pain, the torment and torture, profanity
Nausea, suffering, perversion, calamity
You can't get away

It's not over yet
You don't remember?
I won't let you forget
The hatred I bestowed
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
From my teeth and my tongue
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
Now you are mine
I'll keep killing you until the end of time

Surprise! You're dead!
Ha ha ha! Open your eyes

Surprise! You're dead!
Guess what?
It never ends…
Never ever ends…


11. WAR PIGS

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds... Oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait `till their judgement day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning,
As you hear the bodies burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of god has struck the hour
Day of judgement, god is calling
On their knees the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings...Oh lord, yeah!


12. EASY

I know it sounds funny but I just can't stand the pain
Girl I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl you know I've done all I can
You see I begged, stole, and I borrowed
Yeah...Ooo

That's why I'm easy
Aah, aah, aah, aah
I'm easy like Sunday morning
Aah, aah, aah, aah
That's why I'm easy
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Easy like Sunday morning

I wanna be high
So high
I wanna be free to know the things I do are right
I wanna be free
Just me
Ohhhh babe...
oohh!

That's why I'm easy
Aah, aah, aah, aah
I'm easy like Sunday morning
Aah, aah, aah, aah
That's why I'm easy
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Easy like Sunday morning
yeah that's about it but one thing i looked those lyrics up in an another site
and there was this
"Why in the world would anybody put chains on me?
I paid my dues to make it
Everybody wants me to be what they want me to be
I'm not happy when I'm trying to fake it"


13. THE CRAB SONG

And after all the feelings go, I see I still love you so,
I just thought I'd let you know now that everything's okay,
And you are on your way back, back to where you came,"
She said with pain in her heart, it was there from the start.
Now I know why everything turns grey, but it's our own world
we paint
And I want the brightest, I want fluorescence every day and
night
For the rest of my life, open your eyes, won't you?
Can't you see you're so beautiful to me?

Don't look back as a matter of fact there's
A ten foot Jack wants to break your back
You stole his girl, you wrecked his world
Now it's your your head that he's gonna twirl
He won't think once, he won't think twice
Cause he knows just what he's gonna do tonight
He will commit a crime, a crime of love
And he won't be happy till he sees your blood

Looking back on when you left me
Standing in the rain

Don't look back as a matter of fact there's
A son of a bitch and he's digging a ditch
For you my friend, my lucky one
So grab your things it's time to run to the other side

Where love takes pride, and your souls
The only thing that stays alive
Ma maooba goo goo ga ga
Hey! Quit talkin that terminal jive!

Looking back on when I left you...
Crying in pain
Don't look back...

Looking back on when you left me
Standing in the rain, in-credible pain
I understand. You have to be your own person. And that's ok
with me.

Hurts, Hurts, Hurts, Like a like a motherfucher
Love. it hurts. it kills. Like a sonofabitch.
That feeling. It gets me. Down inside. Deep down there
No further. Keep going. Oh man that's right out my system
