Альбом The Von Bondies

You feel buried, you feel bored
No one takes u seriously when ur 24
So shut off ur days
And turn on ur nights
'cause the chance is for the taking
And the taking's right

No you really haven't lived life yet
No you really haven't lived life
If you ain't got no regrets

What I did last night
Is none of your concern
You know I feel right
But that's none of your concern

No you really haven't lived life yet
No you really haven't lived life yet
If you ain't got no regrets
If you ain't got no regrets

Don't be mistaken
For someone who cares
Oh no, Oh no you wouldn't dare
Your the path here,
The pawn i took,
The sacrificial lamb,
The spineless book

Oh no you really haven't lived life yet
Oh no you really haven't lived life yet
If you ain't got no regrets

I'm a broken man
This here's my broken band
From a broken land
We take the good, the bad
Yeah

I'm a broken man
From a broken land
This here's my broken band
From your hand
Yeah

I'm a broken man
This here's my broken band
From a broken land
We call Detroit City
There's no blood on these hands
That's why we came to take a stand
We take the good, we take the bad
It's all we ever -
It's all we had
Yeah

On another day c'mon c'mon
With these ropes I tied can we do no wrong
Now we grieve cause now is gone
Things were good when we were young

With my teeth locked down I can see the blood
Of a thousand men who have come and gone
Now we grieve cause now is gone
Things were good when we were young

Is it safe to say? (c'mon c'mon)
Was it right to leave? (c'mon c'mon)
Will I ever learn? (c'mon c'mon)
(c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon)

As I make my way c'mon c'mon
These better nights that seem too long
Now we grieve cause now is gone
Things were good when we were young

With my teeth locked down I can see the blood
Of a thousand men who have come and gone
Now we grieve cause now is gone
Things were good when we were young

Is it safe to say? (c'mon c'mon)
Was it right to leave? (c'mon c'mon)
Will I never learn? (c'mon c'mon)
(c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon)

Is it safe to say? (c'mon c'mon)
Was it right to leave? (c'mon c'mon)
Will I never learn? (c'mon c'mon)
(c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon)

And know this day these deepened wounds
don't heal so fast ñan't hear me croon
of a million lies that speak no truth
Of a time gone by that now is through

Everything is perfect
Until I get your phone call
Telling me something I said or did
That wasn't even my fault

When will I know it's the end
When there's nothing left for me and you

Then it gets much much worse as the day goes on
I hear rumors of lies of my name
Being dropped by the friends that I once loved

When will I know it's the end
When there's nothing left for me and you

Well take a good look
And tell me what you see
I got a bad feeling about a thing or two
And the way life's supposed to be
With your ... life you choose
You take the fun out being a lead
Nothing to lose
When is nothing ..

When there's nothing left for me and you

I've been set up like the innocent.
I've been swank
And I'm lovin' it.

I've been alone like a little kid.
I've been swank
And I'm lovin' it.

I've been swank
And lovin' it.

Oh no - it's a sin! The Jury's in.
Doesn't look like I'll be doin' it again.
Cause I've been swank
Been swank - and lovin' it.

I've been swank
And lovin' it.

The nights are cold
The nights are long.
I'm alone and I've been alone all along.
I've been set-up like the innocent.
I've been swank
And lovin' it.

I've been swank
And lovin' it.

Oh, Mairead
Your love is beyond compare
You have streaks of ivory hair
Two lips I wouldn't dare -
Oh, Mairead
Sweet, sweet Mairead
Love of my life, Mairead
Oh, Mairead [x3]

It's your oasis
Stroke of the pen
It's your hive of friends, baby
Tell me, is this the end?
Oh, Mairead
Oh, sweet Mairead
Love of my life, Mairead
Oh, Mairead [x3]

You hide behind an icy stare
Do you even care?
Well I'm here, well I'm there
Oh, Mairead
You sucked my dry
Took all my will to live
Look at me, oh look at me, Mairead
Sweet Mairead
Sweet, sweet Mairead [x2]

Oh, Mairead
You took every - every ounce of my love
(Let me put there)
I think I've had enough
Oh, Mairead
You said it was true love
You said it was everything you ever wanted
You said - said lies
You said lies
Oh, Mairead
Take me for a fool
Oh, Mairead [x2]

I'm the centre of whats getting you near
But if you wanna, you better come quickly
You're not that social, just a good drinker

I know a way, to make things better
Do i mean it, or am i just mean
You're not that social, just a good drinker

Ahh ah ah ah ah ah
Ahh ah ah ah ah ah

Theres no limits to the problems you bring
You need help, and i need the chance and its on its way
You're not that social, just a good drinker

I've been hinting for a long long time
You'll never make it, this is the end
You're not that social, just a good drinker

Ahh ah ah ah ah ah
Ahh ah ah ah ah ah

Breathe in, breathe out
I know you're tryin [x7]
Breathe in, breathe out
You're not that social, you're just a good drinker

Breathe in, breathe in
You're not that social, you're just a good drinker
Breathe in, breathe in

Breathe in, breathe out
I know you're tryin [x3]

Crawl through the darkness, fear all that don't, fate is a gift [x2]

Can you see the eyes and the daggers that follow?
Anything and everything that stand in the way
Wait, please wait, to the boy who hears the father
Reaching for his hand as his heart starts to sway [x2]

Crawl through the darkness, fear all that don't, fate is a gift [x4]

Truth by truth you'll break men in town
What makes a man drink
And another man cry
If not a gift
No change to make way
Through these fine hours of a our lonely lives
Through these fine hours of a our lonely lives

Crawl through the darkness, fear all that don't, fate is a gift [x4]

I need to be alone, I'm halfway to nowhere
More 'n the cold on now that I am alone
Wait means wait, to the boy and his father
Raching for a hand as my heart starts to sway [x2]

The Fever [x2]

She don't know what she's talking about
Yeah, she's running on empty
She can't sing, she just screams and shouts
Yeah, she's running on empty

She can't feel for the second choosing
To live her life without you
She'd be the one to - she'd be the one to
Try and find what I'm after

B. She don't know what she's talking about
Yeah, she can't sing, she just screams and shouts

C. He thinks it's easy
But it's not easy
Because without him
My heart is empty

He thinks it's easy
But it's not easy
Because without him
My heart is empty

She don't know what she's talking about
Yeah, she's running on empty
She can't sing, she just screams and shouts
Yeah, she's running on empty

She'd be the one to say 'I don't know
I don't know anything about you'
But she can't live - she can't live -
She can't live without you

She don't know what she's talking about
Yeah, she can't sing, she just screams and shouts

I've been hanging around this place too long
I get satisfied and then I'm gone
You break me down and then you treat me low
Like a love you won't bestow
On me [x2]

These feelings I have can't be wrong
The signs say -
I've got the right of way

Self-destruction is my destination
This is how it pains my days
With mixed emotions - even lies
You make me break all ties to these ways
You lay this guilt on me
On me [x3]

These feelings I have can't be wrong
The signs say -
I've got the right of way

You take me seriously when I'm playing the part
Oh, the man with the shattered start
You break me down and then you treat me low
Like the love you won't bestow
On me [x4]

These feelings I have can't be wrong
The signs say -
I've got the right of way

You've got to break it, break it to me
You got to break it to me easy

Nothing can compare
Two weeks I stared
Hands, hand tied

I got an itch
I call her poison ivy
It can kill
Hey hey, oh well

I've got an itch
I call her poison ivy
It can kill
Oh, well

Poison ivy
Poison ivy
Poison - hey hey hey hey

Took my youth
Everything that ever meant something
Nothing comes between me and you
Most of my friends
Most of my friends
Are dead because of you

Poison ivy
Poison ivy
Poison - hey hey hey hey

I had no choice
But to love you
Poison ivy
Poison ivy
Poison ivy
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

I found my heart
In a pawn shop, baby
You took me for dead - dead
By the way - you still
I am way past tales
I'm bored and I'm crazy
You took all my good love
And gave it all away

I've been on the backstreet
I'm all alone
I've been on the hotseat
I'm gone - I'm gone
Sweet little love of mine
Take all you can
I'm your pawn shop lover
I'm your pawn shop, broken-heart man

With all your good looks
I still have nothing
Breaking the whip on my back like a man
Still have nothing
Take everything you want
Take all you can
I'm your pawn shop lover
