I strip my disguise right before your eyes and
I let you believe what you want to believe
Your mystical touch is a bit too much
For the sensitive state that I find myself in
Please don't tell me that you want to stay
I don't think I can take you this way
There are things that need not be explained
Walk away from me please
There once was a time when I dreamt you'd be mine
But 'twas so long ago that I barely recall
We both were so young, our lives just had begun
And the look in our eyes held both hunger and fear
Please don't tell me that things haven't changed
I'm much older and much more deranged
People say the things I do are strange
Walk away from me please...
Don't make a sound, keep your head to the ground
And just walk away, walk way
Put on your dress, there's no need to confess, baby
Walk away, walk away
Go cry to the night but stay close the light
When you walk away, walk away
The love we have stored can never be explored
So just walk away from me
Once I was cold but now I'm warm
It feels like the calm before the storm
Faces, places, scars without traces
That's what my life is...
I'm possessed...
I can't love you, I can only hurt you
Uuuhhh,here it comes
That far away feeling again
Aaaah, Ohhhhh
This life that I live is so hard to forgive
I've abandoned the notion of living in peace
I search and destroy like a boy's deadly toy
All the men and the women who've caused me to grieve
Mama said that if I lost my mind
It would be impossible to find
To the good of the world I am blind
Walk away from me, please
Don't make a sound, keep your head to the ground
And just walk away, walk way
Put on your dress, ther's no need to confess, baby
Walk away, walk away
Go cry to the night but stay close to the light
As you walk away, walk away
The love we have stored can never be explored
So just walk away from me
I see the dawning of a new beginning
And it feels like I'm riding on the winds of change
Yes, I'm taking the lead, but I still ain't winning
Takin' all that I can before the light of day
I can see the world goin' on around me
I can smell the scent of magic in the air
I can hear all the voices behind me
I can make up my mind between heaven and hell
The priest and the doctor pry for my well-being
As they research and pray that I will see the light
But I realize it's themselves who they're freeing
When I step in the box or I lie on the couch
Makes no sense for me to start pretending
That I'll ever find salvation through a man
Mine alone is the soul that I'm mending
And I won't let the world interfere with my plans
Please get me out of here!
Help me to get out of here!
Little men inside my brain
Some cause pleasure, some cause pain
Riding high on waves of fear
Trying to lead me out of here
Little men inside my brain
Some cause pleasure, some cause pain
Riding high on waves of fear
Trying to lead me out of here
Trying to lead me out of here
Out of here!
Faith takes control of all my inhibitions
As the vapors of guilt escape through my pores
And now once again it's my conscious condition
That allows me the strength to break open the doors
I can see the world goin' on around me
I can smell the scent of magic in the air
I can hear the voices behind me
I can make up my mind between heaven and hell
Please get me out of here
I need to get out of here
If you've ver surfed on Jupiter (Surf, surfin on Jupiter)
You'd know the waves are rad (Rad, totally rad, oh, oh)
Full on rainbows made of ice
Purple swells that curl so nice
Jupiter's the place to be
I don't ever want to leave
They quickly grew extinct (No cops, it's totally cool, ah, ah)
No one tells you what to do
On Jupiter it's up to you
Jupiter's for guys like me
I don't ever want to leave
Now when you go to Jupiter (Go, going, going, gone)
You can leave your fear behind (Leave your fears behind, oh, oh)
We're just here to have some fun
No one hunts you with a gun
Jupiter's the place to be
I don't ever want to leave
Surf, surf, surfin' on Jupiter
Last night I dreamt a strange reality
It told me all the truth
But when I tried get it back
I couldn't get it through
Now the solutions to all of our problems
Sit at some borderline
Trapped behind customs
between space and time
In my mind
Yesterday I felt like shouting out your name
To let you know that I would save you from the pain
That life is sure to bring you
I dry the tears you cry beside me
In hopes that when you wake
You'll still remember
How much love it takes to make it
And every time I look into your eyes
I can see the autumn leaves falling
As they darken up my sky
I wonder if I go back to sleep
Will I remember?
No time to talk, let me walk in peace
Even this cold night gives me a place to rest my head
I ain't got no image
I lost it when I lost my mind
As the city grows around me in its own sweet time
Dont' say a word, don't say nothing please
Baby, I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired, so tired of it all
I won't take the fall 'cause I'm running out of time
So tired, so tired
So tired, so tired
I heard it all 'cause I'm running out of time
I gave you a place to stay in the wintertime
Took a needle out of your arm and then out of mine
What's that you're trying to say?
Don't you turn your back on me
'Cause I'm changing my old life and turnin' a brand new leaf
Don't say a word, don't say nothin' plase
Baby I'm down, down on my knees
I'm so tired, so tired of it all
I won't take the fall 'cause I'm runnin' out of time
So tired, so tired
So tired, so tired
I've heard it all and I'm runnin' out of time
When I came into your life, girl, I really didn't know the deal
But now there's nothin' wrong with saying how I feel
Well, I never did you nasty and I moved to your own pace
But my light is green, do you know what I mean?
I got no more time to waste
Listen to me now!
No time to talk, let me walk in peace
Even this cold night gives me a place to rest my head
I ain't got no image
I lost in when I lost my mind
As this city grows around me in its own sweet time
Don't say a word, no, don't say nothing please
Baby, I'm down, down on my knees
I'm so tired, so tired of it all
I waon't take the fall 'cause I'm running out of time
So tired, so tired
I've heard it all and I'm running out of time
So tired, so tired
I won't take the fall 'cause I'm running out of time
This song has no words.
Television people
(I am your TV screen, and you belong to me, once you
let me in)
Television people
(I look inside your soul and take
complete control, once the show begins)
I see an
old friend when I look into your eyes
Someone who truly understands
You'll always be there for me late night or early morning
Long after you're dead I'll turn you on
We're one within, we're one without
We're one within without
We're one within, we're one without
We're one within without
Television people (I am your TV screen)
Television people (My wish is your command)
{I really need to fix
this part!}
You never question what I've done or where I've been
I sit before you and I feel so free
You show me joy and sorrow, where will I be tomorrow
Long after your dead you'll be with me
You were one within, we're one without
We're one within without
We're one within, we're one without
We're one within without
Television people {more that I'll fix later}
I ran into you two today
And it took me a moment to recognize you
Looking at you at each other's side
A wave of something passed over me
And it was warm for a moment I
Forgot where I was and how I got there
Feeling so undone I suppose I could forgive
And for me forgiveness
Smells like a bloody defeat
I gave up on talking to either one of you long ago
Don't stop the course of things for my sake, please
It was warm for a monent, I
Felt as if my life had just started
Feeling invincible in light of forgiveness
I ran into you two today
And it took me a moment to recongnize you
Looking at you at each other's side
A wave of something passed over me
And I was warm for a moment, I
Forgot where I was and how I got there
Feeling so undone, I suppose I could forgive
In light of forgiveness
Take a little from the big man
Take a little from the sky
Take a little from the big man
Just enough to get on by
For the fear of God and broken laws
I've remained a broken man
It's tough to see when I walk down the street
People eating from a garbage can
Hey, you, on the other side
This river is getting wider
Hey, now, when the money's spent
We can't feed our habits on rhetoric
And the people singing
"Well, There ain't no winning.
Work like a horse, drink like a fish."
Had a talk with your mama last night
Had a talk with my mama last night
She said, "Eat, my darling, make yourself alright."
She said, "Eat, my darling, make yourself alright."
And the people singing,
"Well, There ain't no winning
Work like a horse, drink like a fish."
This river is getting wider
This river is getting higher too
Hey, you, on the other side
This river is getting wider
Hey, now, when the money's spent
We can't feed our babies on rhetoric
(Take a little from the big man,
Take a little from the big man, momma)
Hey, you on the other side
This river is getting wider
Hey, Mr. President
We can't feed our babies on rhetoric
And the people singing,
"There ain't no winning,
Work like a horse, drink like a fish."
Camouflaged crusaders of change and goodwill
Sophisticate the masses with their wordy overkill
Intellect and ignorance are walking hand in hand
Stomachs turnin', yearnin', burnin', barefoot in the sand
Liars, liars, pants on fire now
What's with these, wires, wires?
I can't do nothin' anyhow, right?
Alligators, crocodiles and others from the swamp
Congregate in V formation eager for their chomp
One of the little monkeys has jumped out of his pit.
The masses tie him down as he yells, "You're all so full of shit!"
Liars, liars, you got your pants on fire now
What's with these wires, wires?
I can't do nothin'anyhow, right?
Patriotic pushermen, they infiltrate the young minds
Knowing that confusion is exactly what they'll find
Uncle Sam don't give a damn about the rich or poor
He's tagging you and bagging you and dragging you to war
Liars, liars, pants on fire now
Burn! Burn! Burn!
What's with these wires, wires?
I can't do nothin' anyhow, right? (Right!)
Ain't it plain to see that what they do to you
And what they sat to me is just a god damn conspiriacy
They tell you one thing, but they mean another
They call you brother
But that's just another lie to get you high
Until your head's so far up in the sky
And you'll never have a solid alibi
Look out below, you've been swatted like a big fly, Ho!
Liars, liars, pants on fire now
Burn! Burn! Burn!
What's with these wires, wires?
I can't do nothin' anyhow
Right? Right!
Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, This here's called the hillbilly happy smash!
Bow to your partner, grab 'em by the arm
Get prepared to cause him harm
Spin, spin, spin 'em all around
Spin 'em all around till he hits the ground
Pick him back up and do it some more
Throw 'em in the air and clear the floor
Pick up that empty bottle of beer
Smash it over the head of the bar man there
If he starts bleeding don't you run
Don't you run 'cause it's all in fun!
Yee Ha!!
Grab your partner, make her stare
Strip on down to your underwear
If she leaves don't you care
Don't you care, there's more over there
Run over there, grab someone
Throw him in the pit and join the fun
Hit your head up on the stage
Get into the pit and start to rage
Don't you worry if you want to get laid
All you gotta do is promenade
This here's called the Hillbilly Happy Smash
Originated in the hills
of Point Radiance, California.
It's real easy to do, heh-heh
Now you're feeling good and sloshed
Get into the pit and start to mosh
Mosh, mosh, spin it all around
Round and around and around and around
Round and around and around and around and around and around and around
and around
Round and around and around and around and around and around and around
If you get dizzy don't you stress
Barf on your partner's brand new dress
Ut-oh, um, oh no!
Here come the bouncers
And they're lookin' mighty mad!
Here come the bouncers four by four
Tryin' hard to get to the middle of the floor
Dip, dive, step and steer
Don't let the motherfuckers get too near
Jump on their backs and hit 'em on the head
Hit 'em on the head till their faces turn red
Forget about what I said before
Grab your shit and head for the door
And if you just have gotten your thrills
Get into your car and head for the hills
Head for the hills, head for the hills, ha-ha
This has been the Hillbilly Happy Smash
Y'all come back now, you hear?
this song has no words
Come here, folks, and gather 'round
Cause I'm the king of this here town
Oh, I've heard it all before
Just leave your dreams there by the door
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
Hooray for big ole' me!
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
Enie, meanie, minie, moe
Catch that tiger by the toe
Touch my slime and then you'll see
You're on your way, boy, stick with me
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see?
Three cheers for big ol' me
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
When I was just a boy (When I was only just a boy)
And the world was my toy (And the world was a toy)
That's when it came and I saw the thing
The once and future Banana Slug King
He moved slow and deliberate (Slow and deliberate he moved)
And everything that he touched stuck to him
He became so big and round that nobody asked a lot of questions
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
Hooray for big ol' me
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
Many came and many tried
To take my prize without the slime
Over graves of souls all mine
I move along and take my time
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
Hooray for big ol' me
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
Three cheers for big ol' me
He's the banana slug king, and he's like that, see
(Much laughter)
