Lyrics

There are no monks in my band
(there are no monks in my band)
There are no saints in this land
(there are no saints in this land)
I’ll be doing all I can
If I die an honest man
(if I die an honest man)

Confusion is my middle name
(confusion is my middle name)
Ask me again Ill tell you the same
(ask me again Ill tell you the same)
Persuaded by one sexy dame
No I don not feel no shame

You are on the road
Can I get a little lovin’ from you
Can I get a little bit of that done did do
You are on the road
Tell me now girl that you need me too
Tell me now girl cause Ive got a feeling for you

Every man has certain needs
(every man has certain needs)
Talkin’ bout them dirty deeds
(Talkin’ bout them dirty deeds)
To these needs I must concede
Livin’ by my lowly creed
(Livin’ by my lowly creed)

Woman please know that I’m good
(woman please know that I’m good)
Know that I did all I could
(know that I did all I could)
But yes its true likelihood
Of being great is not so good

You are on the road
Can I get a little lovin’ from you
Can I get a little bit of that done did do
You are on the road
Tell me now girl that you need me too
Tell me now girl cause Ive got a feeling for you

There are no monks in my band
(there are no monks in my band)
There are no saints in this land
(there are no saints in this land)
Ill be doing all I can
If I die an honest man
(if I die an honest man)

Virtue slipped into my shoe
(virtue slipped into my shoe)
No I will not misconstrue
(no I will not misconstrue)
More rockin’ more rockin’ now doobley doo
Dancin’ down your avenue

You are on the road
Can I get a little lovin’ from you
Can I get a little bit of that done did do
You are on the road
Tell me now girl that you need me too
Tell me now girl cause Ive got a feeling for you

Bandages on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Up and down on my legs my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages

These bandages cover more than scrapes, cuts and bruises from regrets and mistakes
I’ve been hoping your moping around the street again
I’ve been tripping from sipping the dripping dirty water tap
I’ve been poking a voodoo doll that you do not know I made
These bandages are anonymity
I’ve been shaking from making an awful decision
I’ve been running and running
feels like my head is spinning round and round, around, around, around, around, around

Bandages on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Up and down on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages

I’ve been hoping your moping around the street again
I’ve been tripping from sipping the dripping dirty water tap
I’ve been poking a voodoo doll that you do not know I made
For you, of you, let’s see what needles do
I’ve been shaking from making an awful decision
I’ve been thinking I’m drinking too many drinks all by myself
I’ve been running and running
Feels like my head is spinning round and round, around, around, around, around, around

Bandages on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Up and down on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Bandages on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Bandages, bandages, bandages

Don’t worry now, don’t worry now, don’t worry cause it’s all under control
Don’t worry now, don’t worry now, don’t worry cause it’s all under control
Don’t worry now, don’t worry now, don’t worry cause it’s all under control
Don’t worry now, don’t worry now, don’t worry cause it’s all under control
Don’t worry now, don’t worry now, don’t worry cause it will all turn around,
around, around, around, around, around, around, around

Bandages on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Up and down on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Bandages on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Up and down on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Bandages, bandages, bandages

Always know that I can
Get your knee’s on the floor
Absinth make you may whore

By this sword you must know
That all things will come and then pass
Live your days like the last

Lyrics

Love spreads her arms, waits there for the nails
I forgive you, boy, I will prevail
Too much to take, come cross to bear
I’m hiding in the trees with a picnic, she’s over there, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

She didn’t scream, she didn’t make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don’t leave town
Cold black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they’re hurting her again

Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain’t no king man, she’s my queen

I have a dream, I’ve seen the light
Don’t put it out, say she’s alright, yeah, she’s my sister

She didn’t scream, she didn’t make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don’t leave town
Cold black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they’re hurting her again
Oh, oh, ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain’t no king man, she’s my queen

I have a dream, I’ve seen the light
Don’t put it out, say she’s alright, yeah, she’s my sister

Lyrics

You’re no rock n’ roll fun
Like a party that’s over
Before it’s begun
You’re no walk in the park
More like a shot in the dark
With clues left for no one

And all the boys in the band
Know how to get down
Fill our Christmas socks
With whiskey drinks
And chocolate bars
And when the evening ends we won’t
Be thinking of you then
Although the best man
Won’t hang out with the girl band!

You’re no rock n’ roll fun
Like a piece of art
That no one can touch
Your head is always up in the clouds
Writing your songs
Won’t you ever come down?

And all the boys in the band
Know how to get down
Fill our Christmas socks
With whiskey drinks
And chocolate bars
And when the evening ends we won’t
Be thinking of you then
Even if your song
Is playing on the jukebox

You wanna party with the lights on
Come on I like it dark!
You always wanna hear the same old song
Come on play another song!

You’re no rock n’ roll fun

I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing
I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing

I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing
I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing

Is it up to me?
You won’t wait to see
Screwed us both again
About as close as you dare

I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing
I feel the pain of everyone
Then I feel nothing

Is it up to me?
You won’t wait to see
Screwed us yet again
About as close as you dare
Hey now, take it back
Get off me, you’re sad
Trailin’ on your scene
Just try and keep it clean

Lyrics

Hello. I’ve waited here for you. Everlong.
Tonight I throw myself into,
And out of the red, out of her head she sang.

Come down and waste away with me. Down with me,
Slow how, you wanted it to be,
I’m over my head, out of her head she sang.

And I wonder when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever be this real forever.
If anything could ever be this good again,
The only thing I’ll ever ask of you.
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
She sang:

Breathe out, so I can breathe you in,
Hold you in, and now, I know you’ve always been.
Out of your head, out of my head I sing.

And I wonder when I sing along with you,
If everything could ever be this real forever.
If anything could ever be this good again,
The only thing I’ll ever ask of you.
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.
She sang:

And I wonder,
If everything could ever be this real forever.
If anything could ever be this good again,
The only thing I’ll ever ask of you.
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when.

Lyrics

Checked the clock when I got home and realized I was alone.
Sat for hours by the window wonderin’ where did ya go?
Couldn’t eat or sleep at all took the pictures off the wall.
Paced the place as time moves slow and I’m wondering
Where did ya go?
Where’d ya go?
Where’d ya go?
I wanna know!
Lit a cigarette I couldn’t smoke
Wound the clock until it broke.
Went to bed then took a shower, stared at TV for an hour.
Did the dishes, made the bed.
Read a book I never read.
Any minute you will show and I’m wondering where did ya go?
Where’d ya go?
Where’d ya go?
I wanna know!
I opened the fridge, I opened a beer, played a tape I couldn’t hear.
Emptiness began to grow and I’m wondering where did ya go?
Watched the sun come up from the back stairs.
Thought about the last few years.
I lost control
I screamed, I cried
I punched a hole and went inside.
Packed my things, called a friend.
Wished this emptiness would end.
Wrote a note then tore it up, poured the beer into a cup.
Sat on the couch, drank it slow, wondering where did ya go?
Realized I couldn’t stay, I grabbed my things and went away.
Where’d you go?
Where’d you go?
I wanna kno

Lyrics

UGH!

The movie ran through me
The glamour subdue me
The tabloid untie me
I’m empty please fill me
Mister anchor assure me
That Baghdad is burning
Your voice it is so soothing
That cunning mantra of killing
I need you my witness
To dress this up so bloodless
To numb me and purge me now
Of thoughts of blaming you
Yes the car is our wheelchair
My witness your coughing
Oily silence mocks the legless
Ones who travel now in coffins
On the corner
The jury’s sleepless
We found your weakness
And it’s right outside our door
Now testify

Now testify
It’s right outside our door
Now testify
Yes testify
It’s right outside our door

With precision you feed me
My witness I’m hungry
Your temple it calms me
So I can carry on
My slaving sweating the skin right off my bones
On a bed of fire I’m choking on the smoke that fills my home
The wrecking ball rushing
Witness your blushing
The pipeline is gushing
While here we lie in tombs
While on the corner
The jury’s sleepless
We found your weakness
And it’s right outside your door
Now testify
Yeah testify
It’s right outside our door
Now testify
Now testify
It’s right outside our door

Mass graves for the pump and the price is set
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set

Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now controls the past
Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now?

Now testify
Testify
It’s right outside our door
Now testify
Testify
It’s right outside our door

Everybody’s talking ’bout the stormy weather
And what’s a man do to but work out whether it’s true?
Looking for a man with a focus and a temper
Who can open up a map and see between one and two

Time to get it
Before you let it
Get to you

Here he comes now
Stick to your guns
And let him through

Everybody’s coming from the winter vacation
Taking in the sun in a exaltation to you

You come running in on platform shoes
With Marshall stacks
To at least just give us a clue

Ah, here it comes
I know it’s someone I knew

Teenage riot in a public station
Gonna fight and tear it up in a hypernation for you

Now I see it
I think I’ll leave it out of the way
Now I come near you
And it’s not clear why you make the way

Looking for a ride to your secret location
Where the kids are setting up a free-speed nation, for you
Got a foghorn and a drum and a hammer that’s rockin’
And a cord and a pedal and a lock, that’ll do me for now

It better work out
I hope it works out my way
‘Cause it’s getting kind of quiet in my city’s head
Takes a teen age riot to get me out of bed right now

You better look it
We’re gonna shake it
Up to him

He acts the hero
We paint a zero
On his hand

We know it’s down
We know it’s bound too loose
Everybody’s sound is round it
Everybody wants to be proud to choose
So who’s to take the blame for the stormy weather
You’re never gonna stop all the teenage leather and booze

It’s time to go round
A one man showdown
Teach us how to fail

We’re off the streets now
And back on the road
On the riot trail
