"Slide"
You can never give
The finger to the blind
Sometimes I act so stupid
But you never seem to mind

That's no way to be
Laughing at the deaf
I know that I repeat myself
When I got nothing left

But you know
Hidden thoughts
Poison life, poison life
Yeah you know
Hidden feelings
You steal from yourself

Soho has the boots
Noho's got the crack
New England has the foliage
But I'm not goin back

You tell me that I'm good
I know that I was bad
You made me feel so guilty
I can't remember what I had

But you know
Hidden thoughts
Poison life, poison life
Yeah you know
Hidden feelings
You steal from yourself


"Anesthesia"

I see you comin down
Your life is flashin before ya
I see you comin round
You're talking over and over

You know I tried to please ya
You're under anesthesia

I see you comin down
Too bad there's nothing left over
I don't know what you mean
You're talkin over and over

You know I tried to please ya
You're under anesthesia

You know I tried to please ya
You're under anesthesia

I see you wakin up
And now the day is upon ya
The party's over now
You're talkin over and over

You know I tried to please ya
You're under anesthesia


"Slash your tires"

No point in screamin
Cause I'm only dreamin
That you came to pieces
And I came in peace

You're always loaded
Your life has imploded
Nine weeks of hell, man
But I'm feelin swell

And in my dreams I slash your tires
And in my dreams I set these fires
And all your fears, it's nothing new
And all your tears, they won't help you

You're always posin
And I was imposin
But I turned the tables
And I'm feeling fine

You're always loaded
Your life has imploded
Nine weeks of hell, man
But I'm feelin swell

And in my dreams I slash your tires


And in my dreams I set these fires
And all your fears, it's nothing new
And all your tears, they won't help you

And all your fears, it's nothing new
And all your tears, they won't help you


"Crazy People"

All kinds of crazy people
Police and senators too
All the crazy people
Couldn't hold a candle to you

Say goodbye
I can't satisfy
All your dreams

All my nasty habits
Are walkin further away
All my nasty habits
I'm feelin better each day

Say goodbye
I can't satisfy
All your hopes


"Time"

Time bends and slows ....
.... and I
Know that you're mine and then
Solely roll on through the night

Time, time
On through the night
Time, time

Each day goes so fast
The summer is now past
I'm standin in garbage
And solely roll on through the night

Time, time
On through the night
Time, time

Time, time, time
When you were mine, mine, mine
All through the time, time, time
When you were mine, mine, mine


"Smile"

I lost my tongue
When I saw your new friends
Please take me home
To the place it will end

I felt to sick
Had to smile, had to smile
Please take me home
To the place I belong

I saw my room
Looked so soft all about
I felt so sick
Had to smile, had to smile


"I Can't Wait"

Maybe I was bad as the ones I hate
Maybe I was dumb, but I can't wait
Maybe what you said is not so cool
Maybe what you did is just too cruel

I can't tell what it takes
I can't wait for today

Scary lookin guys walk down my street
Scary lookin suits I don't wanna meet
Maybe I was bad as the ones I hate
Maybe I was dumb, but I can't wait

I can't tell what it takes
I can't wait for today

I can't tell what it takes
I can't tell what it takes
I can't wait for today
I can't wait for today


"Hey Sister"

Hey sister, hey sister
Things move all alone
You know that I
Can't stand what you do
And it won't be too long

Hey soldier, hey soldier
Things die on their own
You know that I
Can't stand what you do
And it won't be too long

And I'm sure that it won't be too long
And I'm tired of pretending I'm wrong


"I Want Everything"

Hey girl, sweet thing
I want everything
You love me too
And I want you

Well I think I'm gonna
Jump right through your window
And I think I'm gonna
Jump into your life

Cause you got me in a bad situation
And I want you

Well the TV says that
Love is all around us
And the astronauts
Can feel it far away

But it's got me in a bad situation
And I want you

Yeah I think I'm gonna
Take a short vacation
And I think we're gonna
Have to start anew

Cause you got me in a bad situation
And I want you


"Time To Quit"

(oh oh oh, yeah yeah yeah)

It's gettin warm already
We're goin for a ride
I love the Motel 6's
I'm feelin pacified

Forget about your parents
They never cared a bit
Leave the doctors behind you
I think it's time to quit


"Goodbye"

Goodbye baby
Bye bye honey
Goodbye baby
Bye bye

Three years in this town
And I want to leave town
The clubs have all shut down
And I have been dressed down

Goodbye baby
Bye bye honey
Goodbye baby
Bye bye

I'm leavin tonight
And I'm drivin all night
You know I been thinkin
The city is shrinkin


"We're Both Confused"

Things I did
Haunt me still
Follow me around
Like they know the way

Things she said
Linger on
Hanging in the air
And they will not go away

I thought I knew her game
I miss her just the same

Thought I knew
What to do
She broke my window pane
But she said I couldn't prove

I look at my dog
We're both confused
I love September best
And I feel like I should move

I thought I knew her game
I miss her just the same
