Somewhere along the way my hopefulness turned to sadness
Somewhere along the way my sadness turned to bitterness
Somewhere along the way my bitterness turned to anger
Somewhere along the way my anger turned to vengeance

And the ones that I make pay
Are never the ones who deserve it
and the ones who deserve it they'll never understand it
Yes, I know I am going to hell in a purple basket
At least I will be in another world, while you're pissing on my casket

How could you be Oh
So perfect for me? Oh
Why can't you ignore Oh
The things I did before? Oh

Somewhere along the way exacting vengeance gave excitement
Somewhere along the way that excitement turned to pleasure
Somewhere along the way that pleasure turned to madness
Sooner or later that kind of madness turns into pain

And the ones that I made pay were never ones who deserved it
Those who helped me along the way, I smacked them as I thanked them
Yes, I know I am going to hell in a leather jacket
At least I will be in another world, while you're pissing on my casket

All that I can do now is sing a song of faded glory
And all you got to do is sit there look great and make them horny
Together we will sing songs and tell exaggerated stories
About the way we feel today, and tonight and in the morning

How could you be Oh
So perfect for me? Oh
Why can't you ignore Oh
The things I did before? Oh

And take all your fears
And pretend they're all true
And take all your plans
And pretend they fell through
And that's what it's like, Oh
That's what it's like for most people in this world

The rich or the poor Oh
Muslims or Jews Oh
When roles are reversed Oh
Opinions are too No, oh oh

That's all I'm gonna say now
Before they come knockin' on my door now

. . .


Running in the parking lot I'm four years old
I am lost, those were the days
The soft murmur of voices in the other room
comforting you as you fall asleep
Staring at the mother-daughter clones go by
We're in a race against time
And time might be winning

And it's not going to take all day though
Watching the urban decay
All around us, oh boy
And I'm on my way, oh, somewhere
Feels like I'm going left and right in the dark

How long must she wait, how long must you stay
Oh wake up (x8)

I am ashamed I think maybe sometimes
I might have used tricks to make you like me more
When I found you I was running wild
Let's get outta here
What's the trouble there

I wanna know
What were they thinking
'Cause I think
I think it too

Sliding across the Indian wilderness
Like the wind riding down sore throats
6 AM now you're in Hollywood
And you're dancing, we made it
We are turning with the earth so fast
That it feels a lot slower

And it's not going to take all day though
Watching the urban decay
all around us, oh boy
And I'm on my way, oh, somewhere
Feels like I'm going left and right in the dark

How long will it take to fix what can't break
Oh, wake up (x8)

Your girl is ill, as you like to feel
Your fingers on the wheel
Some live in the bottle, Some live in the zoo
With the director and the actor and the crew and the viewers
Boys get their toys and girls got their dolls and
Nothing much gets easier in the final stages

Are you spending today as the same
As your life in corruption and temper in the way

Wait up (x8)
Wake up (x8)

. . .


I just nod, I've never been so good at shaking hands
I live on the frozen surface of a fireball
Where cities come together, to hate each other in the name of sport
America, nothing is ever just how you plan
I looked up to you but you thought I would look the other way

And you hear, what you want to hear
And they take what they want to take
Don't be sad, won't ever happen like this anymore
So when's it coming? This life's new great movement that I can join
The warning here
Your faith has got to be greater than your fear

Forgive them even if they are not sorry
All the vultures, bootleggers at the door waiting
You are looking for your own voice, but you're nervous
While it leaves you trapped in another dimension

Drop your guard, you don't have to be smart all of the time
I got a mind full of blanks
I need to go somewhere new fast
And don't be shy, oh no, at least deliberately
No one really cares or wanders why anymore
Oh I got music, coming outta my hands and feet and kisses, oh

That is how it once was done
All the dreamers on the run

Forgive them even if they are not sorry
All the vultures, bootleggers at the door waiting
We're so quick to point out our own flaws in others
Complicated, man was on the wings of robots

If you believe in this world you're not inviting me
But don't think that yet, to the top, now know what to do

. . .


I hear it in your silence,
when you don't speak...
well what's funny then,
isn't funny anymore.

I can hear it in your voice,
there's always a catch...
we're going nowhere,
and we're going there fast.

Anything to watch
while we are waiting
for this apocalypse?
What more is there to do?

It's nice to be important
but so close to being despised
It's more important to be nice
like just in being wise

I take you shopping
I take you dancing too
I take you out
all the thing you wanna do
and I'll give you diamonds
and I'll give you space
so be with anyone you want
it's alright with me.

ohh time is over
don't you know that
if a time won't
pause or burn
ill stay right in my place
now worry's over!

I hear it in your silence,
when you don't speak...
there is a quiet,
cryin',
rage,
burning inside you, so deep.

I'd give you anything
but I'd give you problems
So be with anyone you want
It's alright with me.

I hear it in your voice
I see it in your lips
There's always a catch
I guess that's alright with me

When no one's around
cuz the map says you're here
Now I can hear a loneliness
screaming in my ear.

Oh, time is over
Don't you know that
if a time won't pause or burn
I stay right in my place
Your worry ain't over yeah
No, this worry ain't over yeah

We are not says only I am not sorry

Our time is over

. . .


Everything seems to go wrong when I stop drinking
Everything seemed to go my way last night
Everything seems so wrong to me this morning
I know things will be brighter later tonight

On Ludlow St.,
Try to down scarmen on Ludlow St.
Puerto Ricans are runnin' on Ludlow St.
Soon musicians will haunt it, on Ludlow St.
Where angels once haunted
And it's hard to just move along

While I surrendered my ego, you fed yours
All my fantasies died when you said yours
I have dangled my pride to forget yours
Will my mind be at ease when you get yours?
We'll find out soon enough

It started back in 1624
The Lenapes tribes would soon get forced from their home
Soon we'll all get pushed out now
As soon as I get sober
I remember why I drank it all away

On Ludlow St.

Cautious regrets, callin' me on the phone
My shoes they seem to be my only home
The only thing to last will be my bones
Oh, tonight you hear the animals next door to you moan

On Ludlow St., faces are changing on Ludlow St.
Yuppies invaded on Ludlow St.
Night-life is raging on Ludlow St.
History's fading, and it's hard to just move along

While I surrendered my ego, you fed yours
All my fantasies died when you said yours
I have dangled my pride to forget yours
Will my mind be at ease when you get yours?
We'll find out soon enough

While they defended their ego, you fed yours
All their fantasies died when you said yours
They have dangled their pride to forget yours
Will their souls be at ease when you get yours?
We'll find out soon enough
I'll find out soon enough

. . .


We might be here for a late night
Stuck in a lava flow of brakelights
I can hear a rattling bass drum
Driving back to where it came from

Sit back on
I shop therefore I am the cause
Protect me from what I was

Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Timing is everything, timing is everything

I match your feat where ... is me
We'll show me a super night crossing roads or highways
In the afterlife of supercities, gravity devouring its outskirts
It's me all in octopus arms, redecorating late at night


No bad time for kids who hate sports
Mothers crying at the airport
Finding the dreams you left behind to do
Waving goodbye your young heart cries for you

Sit back on
You're finding it out to get very far
We were born waiting in line
Grabbing the future by the eyes

Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it
Timing is everything, timing is everything
Getting the hang of it, timing is everything
Getting the hang of it, timing is everything
Timing the hang of it, getting is everything
Getting the time of it, everything hangs on this
Hanging the getting of, timing the getting of

Our bodies would die like the earth would dry
We fuel and recharge the ...
My fault, myself, be my homeward bound?
Where did you go, you were my ride home
Is that what we want?
Is everything shot?
Is that what you ask for?
'Cause that's what we got

Life is destined
Life is destined

. . .


I don't believe it
I won't believe it
I'm not sad
I understand
That's how it goes

Take it easy
There's no time to be mad
That's their job
Blood on their teeth
Death on their mind

Pretty baby
Please just get out of the way
Where it's safe

Eyes will follow you
Weapons can't break through
Tears will swallow you
You'll always see right through

Bulletproof glass
Bulletproof glass
Bulletproof - you're in trouble now
But who knows
But who knows

Please don't deceive me
I'm just so easily fooled
There's some things they do not want the answers to

Don't wanna bring all that up
But they keep leaving it out
What to do?

We'll just let it be
Until they all need

Bulletproof glass
Bulletproof glass
Bulletproof - you're in trouble now
But who knows
But who knows

(solo)

If you wanna know somebody
Might take a quick look at their best friends
Diamonds are hers
The dog is his

You can lie to yourself
But don't lie to me
That's what they want

Dominance and loyalty
Romance and security
Stay behind the

Bulletproof glass
Bulletproof glass
Oh, Oh

. . .


I wish that clouds could hold me up
Like I thought as a child growing up
I wish I could sound as soothing as the rainfall
But I am only a drop from the storm

Feel like a tourist out in the country
Once this whole world was all countryside
Feel like a tourist in the big city
Soon I will simply evaporate

I took the strings up North
the drums down South
I ... crossed Afghanistan a long time ago
Shuffling your feet into the next dimension
Soon skyscrapers will be everywhere

I feel like a tourist lost in the suburbs
Soon the whole world will be urban sprawl
Feel like a lover out on the ocean
Feel like a teardrop streaming off your chin

Some will bet against you
Try even to prevent you
But not many can stop you man
If you've got a perfect plan
Can they possibly try or
Demand to know why they would bow to you
In this sand- a thousand generations

Feel like a tourist out in the desert
So hot it feels like the devil's breath
Feel like a tourist out in the swampland
This world is just patches of water and land

Everywhere I go I'm a tourist
But if you stay with me I'll always be at home

. . .

Old Hollywood

I think you're pretty
I think you know it
You got a boyfriend
You just forgot him that's all
For five minutes that's all
You're my best friend that's all

Divide and conquer
Train him to be greedy
Why would the person put the advantage by fair?

Will you become what other people think of you?
I hope you don't feel lonely when you're spending time with me your friend

Wish you were here with me
Wish I was there with you
I'm reaching feeling for you
I wanna be up with you again and again

We wait for each other
But we are not lovers
I picked a good time to leave
I think it made you mad

You're talking about
You're talking about what I'm saying
Now

Wish you were here with me
Wish I was there with you
If you wanna talk I think we should
But me and where don't work so good

Will you become what other people think of you?
I hope you're not too lonely when I'm spending time with my old friend

Oh oh
Yeah
Okay
Subtle indications dribble away which you don't care about
Yeah
Okay
Go

. . .


I don't care what the neighbors say
Christmas time is near
I don't care what anyone says
Christmas is full of cheer
All I know is that Santa's sleigh
Is makin it's way to the U.S.A.
I wish it was Christmas today

I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
All I know is that Santa Claus
Don't care about breaking or applying laws
I wish it was, I wish it was,
Wish it was, wish it was, oh

I don't care about anything else
Christmas is almost here
And I don't care what the news man said
Christmas is full of cheer
I don't care about anything
Except hearing those sleigh bells a'ring-a-ding, ding
I wish it was Christmas today
In the good old U.S. of A.

I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
I wish it was Christmas today
I wish it was Christmas today, oh, oh
(???) ... all those boys and girls
In every nook and cranny of this crazy ass world
I want it, I want it,
I want it, I want it
