LYRICS:
black roses:
days of filthy black roses
we've got what you need now
it's a blindness of science it's
real love
nice turns corners behind us
till we get what we need then
if you find us you'll find us in
real love
this is just the strangest place
backwards or forwards
we've found our own emergency and
i don't want to know when it's over
no.
hey, i like what your thinking
yeah, i like what you said
and you've got what i need now
LOADED GUN:
I GET PUT AWAY IN THE MORNING
I GET PUT AWAY EVERY MORNING
OH MY, WE TRAVELED STRAIGHT AS A WIRE
FROM IGNORED TO DESIRED, HAND IN HAND .
LORD KNOWS, I LIKE TO DRINK,
YOU LIKE MORE TROUBLE
YOU LIVE TO HATE MY LIFE'S MORE SUBTLE
THAT'S YOU AND ME.
I GUESS YOU NOTICED
THAT I DONT NEED PERMISSION
TO LIVE, I'M JUST LIVING
ITS A GIFT THAT GOT GIVEN AND
A PURPOSE SO PERFECT IT'S MEAN
OH YES, I KNOW THIS...
AND THE TROUBLES OUTSIDE US
DISTRACT OR REMIND US
IF THE COUNTRY REQUIRES US
I'LL BE SAVING MY LIFE JUST FOR ME
I'M JUST A LOADED GUN
I GET PUT AWAY EVERY DAY
we're gonna be heroes:
see right now?
its so clear
the right time
the right place
it's right here
the world stops
the world starts
the crowd boos
the crowd cheers
the crowd parts
were gonna be heroes
were gonna be bastards
were gonna live moments from disaster
were gonna fix everything
till it don't matter
the right words
the right tone
the right luck
the right hate
the ride home...
we're gonna be heroes
we're gonna be hammers
we're gonna die anyways
we'll just die faster
its a wonderful life
so please enjoy the laughter.
ha ha ha
HEROES CONTINUED:
I'M GLAD TO SEE
THEM FINALLY LEAVE US ALONE
AND FROM THE WAY THE PAPERS TELL IT
WE'RE DEAD AND WE'RE DONE
ITS WORSE THAN WE THOUGHT
I PLAN TO SEE
THE PYRAMIDS, NORTH POLE AND SOUTH
THE YANGTZE, THE CONGO AND THEN
THE AMAZONS MOUTH, I'LL SWALLOW IT WHOLE
WE COULDNT CHANGE
WE COULDNT CHEAT
WE COULDN'T BREATHE IN THAT AIR
DEPLOY THE CHARM
IGNORE THE FEAR
AND FIND A COMFORTABLE CHAIR
NOW ON WITH THE SHOW…
please pardon me:
it's so full it's leaning
but it still seems pretty great
it's ruled by awkward creatures
and incredible grace
please pardon me,
cuz i know what you mean…
i'll make tonight a problem
till i get most things my way
when it's peaceful i'm just restless
i don't believe that will ever change
some get past the strange reception
if you are lucky you might see
we're hand built with cold perfection
and we can live through terrible things
FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA:
F..K EVERY SYMPTOM
F..K EVERY GRADE
F..K ALL MY TEACHERS
YOU KNOW, IF I COULD FIND THE TIME
ID GO TO BOSTON, ON MY F..KING KNEES
I'VE GOT THESE F..KED UP KIND OF NOTIONS
AND, I FEEL LIKE SOMETHING'S OWED TO ME
OFF TOWARD BOSTON OR TENNESSEE
DON'T F..KING MATTER WHICH WAY I MEAN,
I NEED TO SLOW DOWN THEN LAY DOWN AND F..KING SLEEP
OR MAYBE RIDE THIS HIGH FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA…
OR MAYBE RIDE THIS HIGH FROM SEA TO F..KING SEA…
THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A LIGHT ON SOMEWHERE
THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A LIGHT ON EVERYWHERE
BUT THERE SHOULD OF BEEN ONE LIGHT ON SOMEWHERE
IN THEE DARK OF YOUR HEART
I BEGIN TO TALK ABOUT A LIGHT
I KNOW I'D SEEN...
the reason we got named:
before the week gets on its way
it turns all playful
we sold the boat we sold the lake
because we had to
i steal a lot of free time
i'm criminally clever
im buying up the future
i need to see you later
we aired it out for several days
becuz we love to
some people left
some people stayed
some people had to
i've made a few improvements
you're gonna like me better
we'll take a short vacation
i need to see you later
i need to see you later...
the only reason we got named
is cuz we wanted to
WE KNOW YOU KNOW WE KNOW:
THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE PART
THAT'S HARDER TO CONTROL
I'M FINE YOU KNOW THE PROBLEM'S GONE AWAY
THIS WAS GONNA BE THE PART
IMPOSSIBLE and STRANGE?
IT SEEMS ABOUT THE SAME.
AND EVERYTHING THAT'S GONE
WILL COME RIGHT BACK
SEE, I KNOW WHAT I KNOW
THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE PART
I'M GONNA LOVE
IF THEY LIKE ME HERE
I'LL NEVER HAVE TO GO
I'M JUST AS PROUD AND BRAVE
AND BRIGHT AS PAIN
AND LIFE IS PROVEN REAL
INCORRUPTIBLE BY TIME
AND EVERYBODY KNOWS I'M RIGHT...
smart ass dumb:
show me that thorn
and i'll yank it right out of your paw
did they pre install,
all those rare words that run through your mouth?
as sure as tame is smart, the bad days get farther apart
and better dreams get drum,
as your smart-ass, your smart-ass goes dumb
your smart-ass, your smart-ass gets dumb
GPS ?:
TELL ME WHERE TO GO...
WHAT THE FFUCK ARE YOU DOING?
I KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE.
YOU HAVE SPOKEN TO ME MANY TIMES BEFORE,
BUT RIGHT NOW YOU ARE SO SILENT,
AND I AM LOST
GPS?
THE SCREEN HAS GONE BLANK.
I NEED YOUR CONFIDENT VOICE.
I SWEAR I WILL LISTEN THIS TIME,
BECAUSE NOW I AM SURE:
YOUR INFORMATION COMES FROM ABOVE -
YOU ARE THE GO IN GOD.
YOU ARE THE NO IN SNOW,
YOU ARE THE LOW IN BELOW ME.
YOU ARE THE HELL IN HELP.
YOU ARE THE LIGHT IN THE SATELLITE
During swells last tour, they stopped at the casbah in San Diego. After the show, we took all these guys to TJ. And watched the sun come up. Beers and conversation abounded. Then drove back to my place and slept for a few hours before they hit the road again. Mr. Q Cumber
