It's many a guard; That stands around smilin',; Holdin' his club; Like he was a king.
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
Everything passes,; Everything changes,; Just do what you think you should do.
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you; It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
Won't you come with me, baby?; I'll take you where you wanna go.; And if it don't work out, You'll be the first to know
People tell me it's a sin; To know and feel too much within.
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
We always did feel the same,; We just saw it from a different point of view
Yes, I see you on your window ledge; But I can't tell just how far away you are from the edge
'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.
Where black is the color, where none is the number
We're idiots, babe.; It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.
The sky is trembling, And I must leave.
We never thought we could ever get old.; We thought we could sit forever in fun
You can pound on the President's gate; But you oughta know by now it's gonna be too late.
I just can't fit; Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
Don't have to look no further, you're the soul of many things.
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun; I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
What good am I if I know and don't do,; I If I see and don't say, if I look right through you
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
Boys in the street beginning to play; Girls like birds flying away
Why does he look so righteous while your face is so changed
Roses are red, violets are blue; And time is beginning to crawl
As the last fire truck from hell; Goes rolling by, all good people are praying
Wealth is a filthy rag; So erotic so unpatriotic; So wrapped up in the American flag
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
I got a poison headache,; But I feel all right
I hate myself for lovin' you and the weakness that it showed; You were just a painted face on a trip down Suicide Road
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound; Someone's always yelling turn it down
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,; I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe; "I thought you'd never say hello," she said; "You look like the silent type."
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
Can't you make any sound?
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,; You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days.
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
Everybody's doin' something,; I heard it in a dream,; But when there's too much of nothing,; It just makes a fella mean.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
Your loyalty is not to me; But to the stars above
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke,; How long must I suffer, Lord, how long must I be provoked?; Satan will give you a little taste, then he'll move in with rapid speed,; Lord keep my blind side covered and see that I don't bleed.
Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,; Wiggle 'til you vomit fire
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
Someone else is speakin' with my mouth, but I'm listening only to my heart.
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies; I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
Nobody feels any pain
You know, the streets are filled with vipers; Who've lost all ray of hope,; You know, it ain't even safe no more; In the palace of the Pope.
How does it feel
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease; Until He returns?
