Acapella Ditty


Well a hello and a howdy
We're so very glad to see you.
And we're getting kinda rowdy
And we've got a lot to say
And we're going to try and do our very best to entertain you
And we hope you'll be delighted by the time you go away
And we are called by name, Oingo Boingo
And we're here just to entertain you
Make you laugh and maybe offened you
But we hope that you, will be happier than when you came because
It is more fun. Just relax, prepare to come undone.
Madness in large portions to serve you
Second helpings come wih mashed potatoes.
Wylee, weelie, wylee wailee We are called the Oingo Boingo
Not Gazingo, or Gazongo or by any other name
And we'll punch you in the gizzard if you dare to call us Bingo
Cause we're called the Oingo Boingo
And it's simply not the same.
No it's simply not the same.

 

Bachelor Party


It's the last time, it's the last chance

It's a fond farewell to a golden age
And it's hard to tell until it's gone away
It's a long goodbye to carefree life
It's the last chance to get out of line
What's going on here?

It's the end of an era
It's a precious moment
And the moment's gonna last
It's gonna last all night
It's a bachelor party, gonna pull out the plugs <---?

It's a firm commitment (_____) to be totally insane (insane)
It's a solemn vow (serious) to forget you have brains (no brains)
It's an indication (tell tale) of a hidden desire (passion)
It's a wild ride (wild sex) through a ring of fire (too hot)
What's going on here?

It's an initiation and it's paradise
It's a celebration and it's gonna last all night long
It's a bachelor party, it's gonna last all night long
Gonna pull out the plugs <---? and it's gonna last all night long
It's a bachelor party and it's gonna last all night long
Gonna pull out the plugs and it's gonna last all night

It's the last time to break all the rules
And it's the last resort for a ship full of fools <---?
It's a bachelor party, we're gonna pull out the plugs <---?
We're gonna get you goin' <---?

It's an indication of a hidden desire
It's a wild ride through a ring of fire
What's going on here?

It's the last time to break all the rules
And it's the last resort for a ship full of fools
And it's the last time as a free agent
And it's the last chance, it's gonna last all night long

(Chorus)

 

Ballad of the Caveman


I'll tell you 'bout a caveman lived a million years ago
When mother earth was young and dinosaurs walked to and fro
His skull contained but half a brain but he didn't mind at all
He's a hot shot caveman, yah do dah (?)
Who loved to fight and brawl

He walked the misty plate in time to find whatever he could find
Then at last he saw her there, covered with hair
A cavegirl looking right his way, half naked, half well who can say
Such a thing he'd never seen before, Well then need I tell you more
The caveman fell in love, love, love
And so he wielded his club

Oooh oooh what could he do?
You can't blame a fellow for trying his luck,
He's just a simple caveman who wanted to---
Well when the cavegirl came around she had some things to relate
about the methods he used to communicate
And she said--

(Female spoken)
I never expected a caveman to exhibit much finesse,
but a fifty pound club ain't exactly a caress
So if you want to call me, you better learn to talk
Until you learn some manners buddy,
Take a walk!

 




Black is for the nighttime
Preys upon the day
Red is for the blood that flows like rivers in our veins
Gray is for betrayal
What you did to me
White is for the blinding light
That I know I'll never see, know I'll never see

Found you in the gutter
You needed tenderness
I gave you everything I had
I gave you all my trust
Handed out so neatly
Caught me in your trap
When I needed you the most
You stab me in the back, stab me in the back

Better luck, better luck, better luck next time
If you do it once there'll never be a second time
Better luck, better luck, better luck next time
Find somebody else, you're never gonna be mine
How do you find the nerve
To lie right to me face
How do you find the nerve

Black is for the nighttime
Preys upon the day
Red is for the blood that flows like rivers in our veins
I try and find excuses
For what you did to me
Can't forget that burning rage
When I wake up thinking of your face
For the blinding swiftness of revenge
That I know I'll never see, know I'll never see

Better luck, better luck, better luck next time
If you do it once there'll never be a second time
Better luck, better luck, better luck next time
Find somebody else, you're never gonna be mine
Better luck, better luck, better luck next time (better luck, better luck)
Better luck, better luck, better luck next time (better luck, better luck)
How do you find the nerve
To lie right to me face
How did you find the nerve
Better luck, better luck, better luck next time (better luck, better luck)
Better luck, better luck, better luck next time (better luck, better luck)
Better luck, better luck, better luck next time (better luck, better luck)

 

Burn Me Up


[verse 1]
I would like to be a martyr
over time it's getting harder
who do I have to go and kill
to get my face on a dollar bill.

[chorus 1]
Every single time I look
someone else has beat me to it
some poor bastard bites the dust
I really don't know who to trust.
But there's one thing I can't deny
I'd rather it was me they fried
have a drink from an empty cup
light a match and burn me up.

[verse 2]
I'm exhausted, I'm committed,
i'm outsmarted, i'm out witted.
my head's filled with dynamite
it's coming out of my ears at night.

[chorus 2]
I think I am being watched
Electric eyes that never turn off.
Radar beams insinuating
evil thoughts while i'm masturbating.
And even my old trinitron,
it's comin through when nothing's on.
Have a drink from an empty cup,
light a match and burn me up.

[instrumental]

 

California Girls


Now Pluto girls are neat but you know they'll
eat you up alive
Although they're nice to know when it's a thousand below
it isn't easy to survive
And Neptune girls are great for dancing
with a dozen arms and legs
They really hold you tight and they can boogie all night
but it's so hard to kiss three heads

[Chorus]
I wish they all could be California girls
I wish they all could be California girls

Now Martian girls are really pretty
with complexions bright and green
But nothing can surpass an andromeda lass
I think their pointed heads are keen
And Saturn girls are really funny they can
make you laugh to death
With methane clouds alas combined with hydrogen gas
why it's a chore to take a breath

[Chorus]
I wish they all could be California girls
I wish they all could be California girls

[guitar solo]

[Chorus]
I wish they all could be California girls
I wish they all could be California girls (etc. etc.)

[Chours II] - girls- girls- girls- girls -I need
girls -girls- girls- girls - I need... (etc. etc.)

[Chorus III]- Calif--ornia Calif--ornia Calif-- ornia
Calif--ornia Calif--ornia Calif-- ornia

 

The Cat is Dead


Deedle Dee, ??????
And we're as clever as can be.
We live with Grandma Ida and our dear old Grandpa Ned
And little Baby Mike (the brat)
And don't forget the siamese cat
And in the attic from Detroit is big, fat Uncle Fred

Oh Grandpa wishes he were rich,
and Grandma just complains (the bitch)
And Uncle Fred gets drunk while Mike just cries all night and day
The cat thinks that he owns the place
He bites and scratches on the face
It'd be so nice if they just went away, away
Ooh daddle, daddle daddle daddle daddle daddle day

(Chorus)
The cat is dead, the cat is dead
I went to pat him on the head
He didn't purr, he didn't meow he didn't blink or snip.
He seemed to have a funny smile that made me laugh
But all the while, the tail that used o flip and flap
Got awful cold and stiff.
We chopped him into tiny bits,
And seasoned him with apple bits
and with some dust, we made a crust and put him in a pie.
Into the oven he did sit, until the crust was nice and crisp
I'll love that little kitty till I die.
Dee die, dee di-de-di-de-di-de-di-de-di-de-di-de-di.

The cat is dead, the cat is dead.
And Mikey too, and Uncle Fred
Expiring oh so suddenly while sipping down some tea.
The tea was hot, the tea was hot
With stricknine and a little spice to
Cover up the funny taste of our conspiracy.
When Grandpa saw what we had done,
He went straight for his hunting gun
But we were quick we sole the clip
The rest is history
To make sure Grandma wouldn't flea
We gave her a lobotomy
And now's she's just as happy as can be
Dee dee, dee deedle deedle deedle deedle deedle deedle dee

(Chorus)

 

Cinderella Undercover


When I was young, my mind would always wander away
I couldn't talk, never had nothin to say
But now I'm grown, nothing much seems to have changed
I think I'm going insane yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Is this a fairy tale, are you the seven dwarves
Did Snow White really die while fighting in the war?
They were the only friends I ever trusted
Now they're scattered, and livin' in the city
Unlisted numbers, Huh

Cinderella undercover
I say, better alive than dead

The war is coming, but there's nothing much that we can do
Stuck in a pay-phone, but the operator won't let me through
I close my eyes, but the memories burn in my brain
I think I'm going insane yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I heard a rumor, they said it's gone nuclear
I stockpile cigarettes, and double bold the door
A sanctuary for all my friends
We'll stay in bed until the world ends
So please don't wake me, I gotta get some sleep

Cinderella Undercover
I say, better alive than dead
I think I'm going insane, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Is this a fairy tale, this can't be real
There's fighting all around, they're shooting in the fields
They say that values change when hunger or ambition strikes
Survival is essential, at any cost or any price
The cartoon animals on Old McDonald's farm
Are nodding off in hotel rooms with needles in their arms
The seven dwarves, HA!, there's only four alive today
Cinderella's working for the CIA

Cinderella, the fairy tale's over
You should know, you got the scars to prove it
And your skin isn't as soft as it used to
But I don't care, come on you said it baby

Cinderella undercover
I say, better alive than
Cinderella undercover
I say, better alive than dead

 

Clowns of Death


I'm the one who preys upon the weakest
And the weakest always preys upon the one who's underneath
I'm the one who doesn't see the waves of human kindness or the tides that
turn the day
I'm the one who always turns and looks away
Turns and looks away

[chorus 1]
Because after all, we are only boys
Because after all, we are only boys
Will be boys will be boys will be boys
Will be boys will be boys will be boys will be boys
Will be boys will be boys will be boys
Will be boys will be boys will be boys
Will be boys will be boys will be boys

I'm the one treads upon the weaker ones
Those that I can find
And there'll always be some others who could march along in line, yeah
March along in line

And, we'll move upon the world in a massive tidal wave
And we'll shout and make some noise, yeah
Shout and make some noise

[chorus 1]

[chorus 2]
The clowns of death are marching on their hideous parade
Their glaring eyes are filled with hate, but I am not afraid
Their painted faces cracked with age, their makeup old and worn
With tattered wings and toothy grins to amplify their scorn
They're looking for the helpless ones
They're looking for the misbegotten
They prey upon the weak and fractured
The crippled and the freaks of nature

And when the come upon one who's lost or is alone
Their smiles get even bigger and their noses start to glow
Making snarling sounds to pantomime with furious abandon
And with a scream they pounce to kill and all the while they're laughing

I'm the one treads upon the weaker ones
Those that I can find
And there'll always be some others who will march along in line

And, we'll move upon the world in a massive tidal wave
And we'll shout and make some noise, yeah
Shout and make some noise

[chorus 1]

[chorus 2]

Your sons and daughters, innocent, lay sleeping in their beds
They'll catch them when you're not around and smash their little heads
If you think it just a dream, or that it isn't fair
Just look around outside your door, the clowns are everywhere

 

Commando Girls


This next song is
Is dedicated to those American fighting girls!

That's right
Those American fighting girls
Who aren't afraid to take the law into their own hands.
To die if necessary!
To keep our cities safe from criminal scum.

The oingo boingo proudly salutes the American commando girls

Commando girls
Commando girls
Commando girls won't you come out tonight?
Commando girls won't you come out and fight?
Commando girls You'll never never catch them crying!

By daytime they're receptionists
Accountant girls so clean
Late at night they hit the streets
Soldiers with a dream.

When they go out they arm themselves
With kakis and fatigues
They're tough as nails and armed to the teeth
With automatic M-16s

Iconoclastic girls that know the plan
To finnish the job like no one else can
To fight so the city's safe for you and me

Oh!
Commando girls won't you come out tonight?
Commando girls won't you come out and fight?
Commando girls you'll never never catch them crying!

They prowl the streets in disciplined packs
Looking for acts of violence
Sweet little poison pussycats
They travel smooth and silent

And when they spot their guilty prey
They waste no time on busts
They stand their ground and open fire
Unload their might of justice

Oh!
Take no prisoners and leave no clues
Read all about it in the morning news
Nobody out there knows what really happened!

Oh!
Command girls won't you come out tonight?
Commando girls won't you come out and fight?
Commando girls you'll never never catch them crying!

[guitar solo]

When my little girl comes home at night
Exhausted from her fighting
When she unzips her camouflage tights
She always looks so inviting!

Slippery skin all covered with sweat
Shivering in the moonlight.
Smell the gunpowder and sweet hot breath
We're gonna have fun tonight!

Oh!
Under the covers it's hard to know
She risked her life just minutes ago
A stiff salute to their courage and their passion!

Commando girls...

[repeat this verse 3x]
Giddy up Giddy up Get 'em all right
Round em up round em up round em up tight
Ready now ready now ready for the fight
Shoot em up shoot em up shoot em in the night

Commando girls won't you come out tonight?
Commando girls won't you come out and fight?
Commando girls you'll never never catch them crying!

Never catch them crying!
Never catch them crying!
Commando girls...
Commando girls...
Commando girls...
Commando girls...
Commando girls...

 

Controller


There's someone knockin' on my door
There's someone knockin' on my door
I think they're looking for me
I think they're looking for me
Pretend there ain't nobody home
Don't make a sound, don't even move
Don't give them nothing to see
I think they're looking for me

I got to run
I got to run
I got to run
I got to run
I got to run

There's someone crawling in my yard
There's someone creeping on my roof
There's someone tapping my phone
I feel it deep in my bones
They want to probe my intuition
They want to find out what I know
Why don't they leave me alone
Why don't they leave me alone

I got to run
I got to run
I got to run
Might be the catcher
Or the controller
Can't be too careful
I take precautions
They're very clever
I got to run

Faceless surgeons armed with razors
Cut out our imagination

(Repeat first verse)

(repeat chorus)

Faceless surgeons armed with razors
Cut out our imagination
It's a strange thing
Deadly reason
Razors cut with such precision
Probing deep without detection
Razors never lie
But it's all right

I think they're looking for me
I think they're looking for me
I think they're looking for me
I think they're looking for meeeeeeeeeee

 

Don't Go in the Basement


Oh..
You can tell a dirty story
In the old conservatory...

But don't go in the basement!

You can make a scene
On the mezanene

But don't go in the basement!

You can fill yourself with static
With the ghosts up in the attic

But don't go in the basement!

You can light yourself a torch
On the old front porch

But don't go in the basement!

Oh you may think that it's real cool
To ride down the bannister like some darn fool
Oh don't go... DONT GO!!
Don't go in the basement!

You can feel quite aloof
Playing rummy on the roof

But don't go in the basement!

Where the cockroaches dance
You can wallow in romance

But don't go in the basement!

You may think that it's deluxe
To ride the bannister filled with rust

Oh don't go, don't go!
Don't go in the basement!!!!

 

Forbidden Zone


Living in the sixth dimension
Things get rough
Living in the sixth dimension
Can be tough
It's so hard when your on your own
When your on your own

Moving in the wrong direction
Brings bad luck
Living without protection
Really sucks

It's so hard when your on your own
You might fall into the Forbidden Zone

Going down, down, down
How far can you go?
You might fall into the Forbidden Zone
Going down, down, down
'Cross the border line
The guards look scary but the girls are pretty fine

I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm going down I go
Turning me around
Turning me around
Turning me around I know

Living in the sixth dimension
Moving in the wrong direction
Living in the sixth dimension
Moving in the wrong direction
Living in the sixth dimension
Moving in the wrong direction

It's so hard when you're on your own
When your on your own
The Forbidden Zone

Going down, down, down
How far can you go
You might fall into the Forbidden Zone
Going down, down, down
'Cross the border line
The guards look scary but the girls are pretty fine

Going round, round, round
Driving me insane
Everything looks different
But nothing has changed.

 

Gimme A Break


You were the one who could never decide
Your always complaining the company's too restraining
You think your sweeter than the rest
But deep inside your scared to death
You've got your finger in the pie
The time has come to pick a side...
[sax]
First you say one thing then you change your mind
You think it's great you say its hot
You turn around and then it's not
On Saturday night you wear punk rags
But you drive a white porsche with custom tags
You'd like to chance it but you just don't know
Cause your getten' blind from too much snow
I hate you but I need the deal
Let's discuss it over a big hot meal
Gimme a break...gimme a break...etc.etc.
[sax]
Don't you think we're tough enough? (think twice)
Think that you can hold us back? (no way)
Don't you know we got the stuff? (sure thing)
Now were on the warpath
Sorry... it's not too late... gimme a break
[sax solo]
Don't you know I'm tired of waiten'? (so tired)
And I'm tired of being nice (so nice)
Can't ya look me in the eyes?
Don't ya know I'm coming out?...
Sorry...It's not too late... gimme a break
You got the job now so you call the shots
You got the access to the bread
You said by now that I'll be dead
But let me tell you something friend
Your days are numbered to the end
You see that young cat down the hall
He's waiten' for you to trip and fall
You'll beg for your job down on your knees
You'll kiss the ground and ask him please to
Give you a break
Give you a break
Give you a break...

 

Goodbye-Goodbye


Oh, I know something
About the ways of loving
And I tell you, baby,
That something's wrong
Look to the sky above and the mud below
Something drives me crazy, got to got to get away
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye!

Without a doubt, I'm telling you I'm burnt out
My tank is running on empty for far too long
Woah! I need fuel 'cause I'm getting so low
Something drives me crazy, got to, got to get away
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye!

I need fuel, just the kind you give me
Makes me feel so bad
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye!

I can't believe
I'm still around
It's getting kinda late
Gonna leave
For a change of scenery
I'm going crazy
It's not the same
Since you've been around

I'm crazy, so crazy
You treat me like a dirty clown
You're always kickin' my dog around
I never get nothin' but constant abuse from you
You couldn't care less what I think, or my point of view

You're always puttin' the make on my friends, always giving
Them eyes and the dirty lies 'bout me and you, well I'm
Through, it's the end of the line for you babe, here's a
Ticket one way Cincinnati, I'm sendin' you home to your ma
And your daddy, so don't try to call me, you'll only be wastin' your
Time!

Oh, I know something
About the ways of loving
And I tell you, baby,
That something's wrong
Look to the sky above and the mud below
Something drives me crazy, got to got to get away
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye!

 

Happy


Don't got a pretty girl who loves me alot
Don't got a fast car that looks real hot
Don't got a fine pad or stereo
And I don't do well in the school where I go, go, go, go, go

But I'm happy, happy
I'm happy though the world is upside down
I'm happy that we all made it through another day
When I pick up the phone I still remember what to say
I'm happy that my brain still lives inside my head
Most of all I think I'm happy
Happy that I ain't dead

I read the paper, I saw the news
All those people out there singin' the blues
They get excited, why don't they just relax
All we got to do is kick back, back, back

And be happy, happy
Happy though the whole world is ready to blow
I'm happy that I made it through another day
When I pick up the phone I still remember what to say
I'm happy that my brain still lives inside my head
Most of all I think I'm happy
Happy that I ain't dead

I know a guy with plenty of loot
You'd never catch him in a two dollar suit
He's got gold chains, plenty of rings
He told me money, it don't mean a thing, don't mean a thing
If you ain't happy, happy
Happy though the whole world is upside down
Be happy that you made it through another day
When you pick up the phone you still remember what to say
Be happy that your brain still lives inside your head
Most of all I think I'm happy.....

I'm happy
I'm happy though the whole thing is ready to blow
Be happy that the sun has rised up again
That somewhere in this world I still got a friend
Be happy that the big one, it hasn't dropped yet
Be happy that you still got something
Something, something to forget
I'm happy

(I'm happy, so happy)

 

I'm Afraid


Afraid of the dark
Afraid of the light
Don't walk in the park
Afraid of the night
Afraid to get stabbed
Or hit by a car
Afraid of the streets
Afraid to go far
Afraid of the sky
Don't like to be high
I don't want to fall
Afraid I might die
Afraid of my friends
Don't like to be seen
Afraid to be nice
Afraid to be mean
Afraid that the wind
Will knock over trees
Afraid of my dog
Afraid of his fleas

[chorus]
Peace of mind
Hard to keep
Hard to find
Look ahead
Look behind
Looking for
Peace of mind
Can't relax
Can't unwind
Deep inside
Secret mind
OH NO!

Afraid to be caught
Afraid to be free
Afraid to make love
Afraid of VD
Afraid of the rain
Don't like to get wet
Afraid to take drugs
They make me forget
Afraid that the air
Will make me get sick
Afraid that a girl
Will cut off my....OH!

Someone tell me how it happened
Why my head is so confused
Can it be my circuits finally blew a fuse
Can a human being really change into a humanoid
Or is my imagination paranoid
All I need is peace and quiet, maybe just a little time
Turn the channel, turn the channel piece of mind

[repeat chorus]

Afraid of success
Afraid to grow old
Afraid that my brain
Is covered with mold
Afraid that I might
Ce put on a shelf
But that's not the least, oh, OH!
Afraid of MYSELF

 

Kiss My Ass


Everybody says they wanna be my friend
Gimme that smile all over again
Shut your mouth now and give it a rest now
Come on baby now and kiss my ass
Cause I'm crying, over again.

Everybody tells me that this is it
I'm telling you baby, it don't mean shit.
I'm sorry I've started to sound real crass now,
Come on, come on, come on, come on come on baby,

(Chorus)
Well come on little baby
won't you cut the chitter chatter
Come sit here on Daddy's lap and won't you tell me what's the matter.
Come on everybody, mix your vinegar with honey
Make your future so exciting if you'd only stop your whining.

I'm a first class son of a bitch
How I'd really like to grant your wish
I'm afraid little darling, it just won't pass
Now, come on baby now and Kiss My Ass
Cause I'm crying over again.

You're pushing too hard, you're pushing on me
You're pushing too hard, _____________________
You're pushing too hard, you're pushing too hard on me

Oh I really want to have some fun, _________________________

You're pushing too hard (5 times)
Over and over (5 times)

(Chorus)

I'm so excited I can barely speak
If you show me a chicken, I'll show you a geek.
You've heard all about my dubious past now
Come on baby now and kiss my ass

Cause I'm crying, over and over and over again.
(Repeat)

 

Lap of Luxury


I work all day and I work all night 4x
I work all day and I work all night
I work so my wife and kids will have a pleasant life
I work as many jobs as I can
I'm proud to work I guess I'm just a working man
-who am I to complain
I live in the lap of luxury
I got a car and a big tv that's so fine
I go to the pictures when I can
-the pictures take me to far-away lands
-almost makes me forget who I am
sometimes at work I've a fantasy
that I'm a man who livesa life of mystery
(but) then the whistle brings me to
I can't forget why I'm here, I've got a job to do
-Responsibility- is much more important to a man like me
I work all day and I work all night
I work all day and I work all night - etc. etc.
guitar solo
I got a job at the factory
but I don't mind cause I know that the job is right for me
I don't complain I'm satisfied
and I don't care to rub elbows with the wealthy
they've got their problems too, I don't envy them a bit don't ya know
I'm doin' what I want and it ain't so bas
I've got everything that a man could have
(I'm) living in the lap of luxury - living in the lap of luxury
work all day and I work all night
I work all day and I work all night etc. etc.

 

Louise


[English verse]
The way you speaak - into my ear
The way I feel when I know you
Are near
Something so good, it must be wrong
Louise ---be true to me

[French Verse]

[Chorus]
When I think about what I've missed
Without you I'd cease to exist
If you leave me, Lord i would cry
Three weeks best, I'd curl up and die
Be true to me, Te'moi cherie, Louise, Louise
I - Yi - Yi

[Chant Verse]
Have you seen my baby
Yes, all the time
Then you know it's true
What - I'm in love
How can you be so sure
What - tell the truth
Does it come from your heart
Yes it does
Where
Deep inside
Where
From the center
Good
Best of luck, and you will need
Plenty of that

 

Piggies

Piggy met baby in a disco bar
Baby said, what a cute little piggy you are
when he took one look at her rocket tits
he smiled real wide and said "Baby, you're it"

Piggy said baby won't you come with me
my little place is three steps away
Piggy gonna take us both to paradise
he said "Come on little baby, won't you please be nice"

So Piggy and Baby sauntered into his crib
said, "here it is baby, this is where I live"
won't you take a load off, can I fix you a drink
baby turned real slowly and said, "Piggy you stink"

Piggy said baby, do you have a smoke?
Baby said no, she was tryin to quit
Piggy was speechless for a couple of beats
when his jaw dropped open and he said... "shit"

Now Piggy and Baby had some swingin times
and though piggy was stupid,
baby sure didn't mind
baby said, "lets go straight to the stars"
and Piggy said
"huh? .... whatever"

Baby and Piggy took a walk in the park
it seems that Piggy was in kind of a fix
he owed seven bills to a couple of sharks
who were gettin kind of itchy in their finger-tips

So they figured it was best to clear out for a while
Piggy had lots of friends, or so he would boast
and his little piggy habit was kind of out of control
so they packed up his Lincoln, and head for the coast

Baby started smokin again on the way
Piggy's little habit was making him sweat
so they stopped off in Vegas for a couple of days
to scam some cash up and make a few bets

They went and shacked up in a place on the strip
Piggy made some calls and Baby got sick
Baby turned to Piggy with a desparate plea
"C'mon Piggy, you know what we need"

But the problem, you see, was that they were broke as shit
so Piggy asked Baby if she'd turn a few tricks
she argued at first, but she finally agreed
with a couple of shiners, she hit the street

Now Piggy felt good, and piggy felt mean
and Piggy was high on his self esteem
so he pulled out his piece, in front of a cop
but the cop said "Fuck you" and Piggy got popped

 

Something Isn't Right


Once in a lifetime something happens no one understands
Turns the whole world inside out, turns water into blazing sand
Who in the world who ever guess that something wasn't right
Who can explain when the sun comes up in the middle of a winter night

I'm burnin' up now baby
I'm burnin' up now baby, baby please

Who would have guessed that when I first set eyes upon your face
History would be rearranged and nothing would ever be the same
Who would believe that in my heart is a piece of burning coal
Slowly turning from a fire to a raging blaze without control

I'm burnin' up now baby, I'm burnin' up now baby
I've seen so much, it scares me
I can't cool off cause something isn't right

What do you think would happen if I sat outside your door
Howled like a dog and played guitar and begged you baby, baby please
How do you think your folks would feel if I broke into your house
Snuck in your room while you were asleep
And prayed to you down on my knees <---?

I'm burnin' up now baby
I'm burnin' up now baby
I've seen so much, it scares me
I can't cool off cause something isn't right

Who in the world would ever guess
That somewhere in the middle of our cozy nest <---?
There were dark things lurking in the back of your mind
Just open the window and look with your eyes <---?
Where in the good book does it say
That destiny cannot be changed
Who in the world would ever know
If you walked out the door and never came home
Cause something is not right

 

Take Your Medicine


Walk with my eyes closed
I bump my head
Look at the stars falling on the ground
Saw someone crawling underneath my bed
Looked in the mirror caught my reflection, said oh...

Just take your medicine
Just take your medicine
And don't complain if it don't taste good
Just take your medicine
Just take your medicine
If it don't do the trick then I know what will

Open the paper
Eat ham and eggs
Java in a cup
Middle of the front page
I saw a man with a gun
Pointing at his head
Eyes in the camera
I can almost hear him say, oh...

Just take your medicine
Just take your medicine
And don't complain if it don't taste good
Just take your medicine
Just take your medicine
If it don't kill ya first then I know what will

I met an angel
Come from above
I buy her everything
Could this be love?
She gives me sweet dreams and nightmares too
Early in the morning she whispers in my ear, oh...

(chorus)

 

Vultures


Say boys and girls don't you want to have fun
Why bother to walk when you'd rather run
Why bother with books when you've got a gun
Come fly with me right into the sun
In another world, in another time
I can picture you and me together
If I close my eyes tight and think real hard
I can float lighter than a feather
If I try even harder who knows what I might find
Why maybe a pearl of wisdom
I would trade these pearls for a parcel of flesh
In flesh we were all invented
Is it time to play? said the ratboy to the ratgirl
Can we fly today, can we look here for some fresh kill
In concentric circles we'll carve up the sky
Looking for a big surprise
Fly like a vulture, fly like a vulture....
In another world, in another time
I can picture us a happy family
With our happy kids all flying all around
And leaving far behind the rat-race
Is it time to play? said the tortoise to the rabbit
Can we fly today, are we creatures all of habit
In concentric circles we'll carve up the sky
Waiting for a big surprise
Fly like a vulture, fly like a vulture...
Say boys and girls don't you want to have fun
Why bother to crawl when you'd rather run
Why bother to walk when you'd rather fly
Come join the party way up in the sky
Is it time to play? said the ratboy to the ratgirl
Can we fly today, can we look here for some fresh kill
In concentric circles we'll carve up the sky
Looking for a big surprise
Fly like a vulture, fly like a vulture...

 

Water


Now everybody tells me you're the dog's best friend
I'm the cat's meow since I don't know when
I'm an instigator from a dead man's town
So when did the whole world turn upside down
When did you change your mind, when did you lose the juice
Now where did you get your attitude
When did you give it away, what did the old man say
And how many babies did you kick today
Now how many nights can the full moon shine
How many bottles of water can you turn to wine
When the blood has flowed against the tides of time
And the water flows forever
Hey hey hey!
Now I'm gonna build a boat, I'm gonna make it float
'Cause I'm getting the chase for a faraway place
Gonna set the sail, gonna catch some wind
And the big red sky's gonna be my only friend
With a boat for two, just me and you
You can be my teacher, I can teach you too
Gonna try a few things that I've never done
Maybe talk to the fishies, maybe have some fun
Maybe shake my pale fist at the angry stars
While I dance a jig under the eyes of Mars
When we get to an island where no one's ever been
We can get down and dirty in our animal skins
And I stand with my thing hanging out in the wind
Where the water's sweet like honey
Hey hey yeah hey hey yeah!
I've been feeling a chill, from the east wind blue
It's been creeping up slow, have you felt it too?
Have you noticed the look? Have you felt the feel?
Did it make you blush when the piggy squealed
Have you heard what they say, did you read the news
Said the old man's coming home a-singing the blues
Gonna whack your fanny, gonna tan your hide
Make your ears turn red, make you gonna cry
Now how many children gonna lose their minds
How many crying girls will be left behind
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking... yeah
Now everybody sing to the heavens above
And everybody dance to the sounds of love
Won't you clack your teeth, won't you smack your hands
Won't you dig your little heads right out of the sand
Won't you jiggle your butt, won't you wave your arms
Won't you look like you just came off of the farm
Won't you stop your fighting for a second or two
Won't you help your neighbors, won't you do the do
Won't you taste the sugar, won't you eat the cake
Won't you get your ugly mug right out of my face
Won't you tell your brothers and your sisters tonight,
That you tasted the water and the water was right
Won't you taste the sugar, won't you dance the dance
Won't you wake up please, come on out of your trance
Everybody make believe that you disappear
For a second or two, gonna feel so queer
And you left behind all your rage and fear
And it made you feel like water

 

We Did It There


Every time I think I've got you figured out
Every time I think I've got you in a Chinese Box.
Every time I think I have got you nailed to the cross again...
You're still happy, now...!

Every time I think I've gotten you everything.
Every time I remember somewhere we have been.
Every time I think that I have reintroduced you to my life...
You're still glowing, now...!

We did it there! We did it there!
We did it there! We did it there!

Every time look I see another place.
When I look at you I see another face.
Every time I feel that I've been melted into a pool of blood...
You're still glowing, yeah...!

Every time I see a place that we have been.
When I think of you I think of what we did.
Every time I look at you I cannot seem to feel prepared...
You're still glowing, yeah...!

We did it there! We did it there!
We did it there! We did it there!

Ordinary furniture.
Ordinary room.
Glowing still for
Glowing just like you...!

We did it there.
(We did it there.)
We did it there.
(We did it there.)
We did it there.
(We did it there.)
We did it we did it... there!

We did it there! We did it there!
Things will never be the same
at each and every place place we've been!
We did it there we did it there!
That place will ever be the same!
Did something there where we have been.
There's cruelty in the memory!
We did it there we did it there!

Every time I see another place where we have been.
It becomes a second temple.
Praying to our sins.

We did it there! We did it there!
We did it there! We did it there!

We did it there.
(We did it there.)
We did it there.
(We did it there.)
We did it there.
(We did it there.)
We did it we did it... there!

Bright moonshine.
Where'd my dream go?
Love's all gone.

Where did my lucky star go?
Where did my lucky star go?

Where'd my girl go?
Love's all gone.
Where'd that girl go?

Where did my lucky star go?
Where did my lucky star go?

Had a life.
Life's gone now.
Where's that thing go?

Where did my lucky star go?
Where did my lucky star go?

Had some sex.
Sex gone now.
Where'd that sex go?

Where did my lucky star go?
Where did my lucky star go?

Yeah...
Yeah....
Oh Yeah!!!

Where did my lucky star go?
Where did my lucky star go?

Yeah...
Yeah....
Oh Yeah!!!

Where did my lucky star go?
Where did my lucky star go?

We did it like rabbits.
While on fire.
...falling in my arms again.
We did it like that.
We did it like that.
We did it there
We did it there
We hide society from our sins.
We did it there
We did it there
We did it we did it there.

Every time I think I've got you figured out
Every time I think I've got you in a Chinese Box.
Every time I think I have got you nailed on the cross again...
You're still glowing now!

Every time I see a place that we have been.
When I think of you I think of what we did.
Every time I look at you I cannot seem to feel prepared...
You're still glowing, yeah...!

We did it there we did it there!
That place will ever be the same!
Did something there where we have been.
There's cruelty in the memory!
We did it there we did it there!

Every time I think I love you,
I remember burning embers.
Makes me dizzy.
Glowing embers.
I remember.
We're so sweaty.
Altogether I remember!
Jeans undone, sweating face.
I remember I remember.
Moving slow, sweating bullets.
Glowing embers.
I remember...
We're on fire we're on fire.
Glowing face and smelly breath.
