Oh baby you know that you are you’re a shooting star. Don’t leave my king forsaken. You’ve got a thing for me baby please but you’ll leave a mess on me when you leave. You come creepin’ at the edge of the night. You’ve got a head full of pain and a hand full of fright.

I wanna walk. I wanna talk. i wanna be free. Set your eyes on me. Ive got my eyes on you. I only wanted try. Tears on my face and i know the reason why. Come baby I wish you’d never leave because you never could know how life can be. I wanna walk. Oh disco baby. 1 for the money. 2 for the show. 3 to get ready honey i walk out the door. You writhe You serpentine dream You’ve got eyes like a cat You’re just mean.

Open up your peepers let the sunlight in Thank the king collider for the state that youre in No concentration No self control No pretty pictures No telephone When the moon changes color you know that its time to go Stumblin home in the dark where the dogs in the park are howling low It dont stop for days. Oh Oh Oh I dont stop for days. Hot Saturday night hot Summer. Hot Summer baby, hot Summer. Hot Saturday night hot Summer. Hot Summer baby, hot Summer. No concentration No self control No pretty pictures No telephone It dont stop for days. Oh Oh Oh I dont stop for days. Hot Saturday night hot Summer. Hot Summer baby, hot Summer. Hot Saturday night hot Summer. Hot Summer baby, hot Summer.

When you wake up in the mornin youve got the sun upon your shoulder you had better get it right. Where did we go? The look on your faces was screamin "my oh my! We got lit up!" Where did we go? She doesnt know what she do to me. She doesnt know what she do to me. We get high with the people on the streets. We get high with the people that we meet. We get high We get high We get high We get high We get high Do you know where the darkness will take you in the end? Oh dying. Do you know where the darkness will take you in the end? Oh dying. We dont know where we go when we die. We just let our hearts go on the fly. We get high just to keep it alive. I get high to keep myself alive. We get high We get high We get high We get high We get high Do you know where the darkness will take you in the end? Oh dying. Do you know where the darkness will take you in the end? Oh dying. We dont know where we go when we die.

Shakey threw a party that lasted all night Everybody drank a lot of something nice There was an old fashioned band of married men Looking up to me for encouragement - it was so-so The ladies looked bad but the music was sad No one took their eyes off Lorraine She shimmered and she strolled like a Chicago moll Her feathers looked better and better - it was so-so Yea! it was time to unfreeze When the Reverend Alabaster danced on his knees Slam! so it wasn't a game Cracking all the mirrors in shame Watch that man! Oh honey, watch that man He talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon Watch that man! Oh honey, watch that man He walks like a jerk But he's only taking care of the room Must be in tune A Benny Goodman fan painted holes in his hands So Shakey hung him up to dry The pundits3were joking the manholes were smoking And every bottle battled with the reason why The girl on the phone wouldn't leave me alone A throw back from someone's LP A lemon in a bag played the Tiger Rag And the bodies on the screen stopped bleeding Yeah! I was shaking like a leaf For I couldn't understand the conversation Yeah! I ran to the street, looking for information Watch that man! Oh honey, watch that man He talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon Watch that man! Oh honey, watch that man He walks like a jerk But he's only taking care of the room Must be in tune

I'm growin up fine My mamma laid me down but lord you knew that i would have to get free. I'm growin up fast. I'm growin up fast.

Do you remember when you were just a little boy? The **** of the century the electric toy. Hot moves beneath the city lights. Finding a way to get the feelin right. Your brother the hero holding tight to your hand. Leave your loved ones behind boy and start a rock n roll band. Don't get so down dont feel so damn lonely. Travel the world like Joey O'Mahoney. He wont come back. He wont come back. He wont come back. He wont come back. You used to think that cocaine had all the love you needed. From coast to living coast you never would believe it. The harder you pressed on the harder sleep would come until never again. Do you remember when you were just a little boy? The **** of the century the electric toy. Hot moves beneath the city lights. Finding a way to get the feelin right. Your brother the hero holding tight to your hand. Leave your loved ones behind boy and start a rock n roll band. Don't get so down dont feel so damn lonely. Travel the world like Joey O'Mahoney. He wont come back. He wont come back. He wont come back. He wont come back.

The Lioness 03:21
The lioness left home with some bright ideas. A head full of pain, electric tears. Moonshot eyes and its no surprise she's got needs. She left a life of blue eyed jimmy and king kong toddy. She's got a face full of makeup and a chemical body. Eyes to the west and the stars above She's got dreams. Take me down for a little while you've gotta want it honey you've gotta want it Take me down for a little while you've gotta want it honey you've gotta want it Say, did you find out babe when you were seventeen that life aint nothin but a movie scene. your mommy has gone square your daddys a queen your brothers a real hip thruster hes a sex machine. Lives like ours Lives like ours Lives like ours Lives like ours Lives like ours Lives like ours Lives like ours Lives like ours

The Pony Man 04:13
When you ride the pony You find that pony man He was sitting in the back of a basement. Let me feel your heart beat now. I'm not like you. Let me hear your heart beat. When you ride the pony You find that pony man. He was destitute and leaning in. Place the enemy upon my weathered open hand. Place the enemy upon my weathered open hand. Place the enemy upon my weathered open hand. Place the enemy upon my weathered open hand. The man with the red dress. The man with the new tattoo. He's got the look of the tiger. Oh babe hes got his eye on you. You woke up in the middle of the night With a head full of pain And an awful fright. It was you.

Go wake up Avory its time. Go wake up Avory its time. Go wake up Avory its time. we dont have any words left to say at this time. we dont have any words left to say. she cried on and on.

She Goes On 02:29
God bless the man that put an apple in your heart and not a gun in your hand. Should have known you were a poppers lady. God damn she was a hot potato. then you come you want money. you want a cold wet jet and a pop of honey. should have known she was a heartache. i wasnt half a man she wasnt half a lady. goddamn she was honest she was honest she was honest truly bitter when baby was belated. mommy was a stitch up daddy was frustrated. Goddamn she wanted everything. oh mommy the 'bater. should have known she was a let down because she goes on. She goes on.

stood at the walls at midnight. I stood at the walls in the rain. I stood at the walls and the water when the world was changed. I stood at the walls at midnight. I stood at the walls in the rain. I stood at the walls and the water when the world was changed. Goodbye my true love marlene. I hope you find what youre looking for. You stayed with me in a dream. But goddamn you take it and you leave. I gave you loving like you had never seen. I gave you one last kiss goodbye. You walked out of my life bye bye bye
