"Well I could eat some gum And make my breath so minty fresh To kiss you Your breath will smell like wine I like that alot Especially when I kiss you And I could hit my funny bone really hard And you could call me sweatheart And who ever said there's nothing new under the sun Never thought much about individuals But he's dead anyways So lets go down together..."

It's hard to explain How I am getting by on so little from you It's hard to believe That I would let myself get so wrapped in you There's got to be something that would Be worthwhile for me to give to you We need a connection But you seem to push me far away from you.

Neon on my naked skin, passing silhouettes Of strange illuminated mannequins Shall I stay here at the zoo Or should I go and change my point of view For other ugly scenes You did what you did to me Now it's history I see Here's my comeback on the road again

Keep a fire for the human race Let your prayers go drifting into space You never know what will be coming down Perhaps a better world is drawing near And just as easily it could all disappear Along with whatever meaning you might have found Don't let the uncertainty turn you around (The world keeps turning around and around) Go on and make a joyful sound

And you can swallow Or you can spit You can throw it up Or choke on it And you can dream So dream out loud You know that your time is coming 'round So don't let the bastards grind you down

"I got drunk with a real nice guy last night, in a mood to talk or fight, and he said "What's the matter? You don't look like you feel so bad." I said I'd just been taken for everything I had. Someone took a fancy to my wallet and my coat. So watch him smiling at me, "Ain't you been in that boat? It's something that there really should be something done about." He said, "Don't knock it, sonny, that's the way I started out, and now I got a nice suit, I got a nice car, it's been a nice day, don't tell me that crime don't pay.

Where do we go when we just don't know and how do we relight the flame when it's cold. Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing And when will we learn to control?

If it gets you down, well then I'll take it If it gets you up, well I don't want it It let you down so broken-hearted If it gets you down, well then I want it
If only we're nothing at all
So blow our mind and make it lazy Those long, long days with no escaping I hold the wheel, and let it go Don't wanna stop, don't wanna know If it gets you down, well just don't blame me
If only we're nothing at all

Take the train on up to the zoo and don't look back on what you've been through
cuz everyone's got a monday it looks like shit and it must be america it burns so quick and it must be america.
it's nice to be liked but it's better by far to get paid i know that most of the friends' that i have don't really see it that way
but if you could give 'em each one wish how much do you want to bet? they'd wish success for themselves and their friends and that would include lots of money

I don't want to spend the rest of my life Looking at the barrel of an Armalite I don't want to spend the rest of my days Keeping out of trouble like the soldiers say I don't want to spend my time in hell Looking at the walls of a prison cell I don't ever want to play the part Of a statistic on a government chart

p.s. Anybody know what an Armalite is?
