Praise be to Nero's Neptune; The Titanic sails at dawn; And everybody's shouting; Which Side Are You On?
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
Nations are angry, cursed are some,; People are expecting a false peace to come.
Insanity is smashing up against my soul; You can say I was on anything but a roll; If I had a conscience, well I just might blow my top; What would I do with it anyway ; Maybe take it to the pawn shop
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
Handy dandy, he got a basket of flowers and a bag full or sorrow
When we meet again; Introduced as friends; Please don't let on that you knew me when; I was hungry and it was your world.
At the corrida we'll sit in the shade; And watch the young torero stand alone.; We'll drink tequila where our grandfathers stayed; When they rode with Villa into Torreon.
You're the one I've been looking for,; You're the one that's got the key.; But I can't figure out whether I'm too good for you; Or you're too good for me.
You don't want a love that's pure; You wanna drown love; You want a watered-down love
Do you know where we're headin'?; Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues; You can tell by the way she smiles
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
We grew up together; From the cradle to the grave; We died and were reborn; And then mysteriously saved.
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats; Too noble to neglect; Deceived me into thinking; I had something to protect
If you're looking for assistance, babe,; Or if you just want some company; Or if you just want a friend you can talk to,; Honey, come and see about me.
she's true, like ice, like fire
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
I'll remember you; When the wind blows through the piney wood.
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
I finally realize there's no room for regret
Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line,; Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine.
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
That long black cloud is comin' down
Lost time is not found again
Everybody must get stoned.
I got nothing left to burn
I need a steam shovel mama to keep away the dead
Has the record been breaking,; Did the needle just skip
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
Everybody's wearing a disguise; To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
You could ride like Annie Oakley,; You could shoot like Belle Starr.
Heart of mine be still,; You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
You're so damn nonchalant; But it's your mind that I want.
Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too; Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through
If dogs run free, why not me; Across the swamp of time?
My love for her is taking such a long time to die
How does it feel
No time to suffer or blink; And no time to think
When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain?
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
I'm sick of love but I'm in the thick of it
In the home of the brave
Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave
And the words that are used; For to get the ship confused; Will not be understood as they're spoken.
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Cities on fire, phones out of order
She's a hypnotist collector
But the enemy I see
Wears a cloak of decency
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,; To see that you're madly in love.
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man.
You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,; When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
