Pouring Us Drinks
02:48
|
|||
It’s every weekend’s nightmare, and always what we know
That there’s no place left to head to and nowhere else to go
With our drunken foreign accents we were wolves wearing sheep’s clothes
With bottles in our pockets, and singing all these songs
Tell me the way we were
Tell me the way back home
And I won’t understand
I’ll keep pouring us drinks if you keep telling lies
Spend the night at your house instead of mine
If there’s really a hell I’d like to see for myself
To know where I’m going would be so satisfying
Baby I’m not drunk, well on our way
Another night of rock n’ roll
And we’ll live like we’ve got nothing left to loose.
and I can see right past those lyings eyes
I see the way you move around other guys
the way you walk through the bar leaves me paralyzed
you make me lay in wait instead of by my side
so listen mister, pour me another drink
give me one good reason not to sit and think
about the way that she's moving around the bar tonight
I need a liquid distraction in a golden glass
as they're clearing out the bar tonight
with that same old rock n' roll
I’ll keep pouring us drinks if you keep telling lies
Spend the night at your house instead of mine
If there’s really a hell I’d like to see for myself
To know where I’m going would be so satisfying
Baby I’m not drunk, well on our way
Another night of rock n’ roll
And we’ll live like we’ve got nothing left to loose.
And we’ll live like we’ve got nothing left to prove.

Bleeding My Wallet Dry
02:14
|

My only sense of courage comes from beer or Novocain; it does wonders for my good grace.
The mountains we defiled, all the wars I won’t be found at, to the campsite where I claimed my grave
All you ever wanted was for me to talk about me & you waited on bated breath
I circled round the answers fought the guilt that we would drown in and left out everything that you needed
Now all of my money’s gone I’ve been bleeding my wallet dry
I know that money can’t buy you love so darlin I just lied
And when you wake up with your hand on a gun and your mouth open wide
If you pull that sweet trigger, you know you'll enjoy the ride
You torn yourself to pieces we were walking around the world
The friends that came to visit now just leave us all alone
All the parties that we went to and the weddings that they had were the times we always felt alone
I could draw out ever reason; I could cut myself to pieces bleed until there’s nothing left
Lay here on the ground and let the wind blow me around like some litter on the lake shore path
Now all of my money’s gone I’ve been bleeding my wallet dry
And lying can’t find you love then why the fuck should I try?
And when you wake up with your hand on a gun and your mouth open wide
If you pull that sweet trigger, you know you'll enjoy the ride

One Way Road
01:14
|

Wasted thoughts today
while wasting no time
worrying about tomorrow, yeah
wasted, waiting
for you to finally know
and for me to finally make a change and go
Losing all my friends
as fast as I've lost
my fear of drinking alchohol
I always ruin good times
giving nothing in return
and I finally have the chance to let you go
so say goodbye for me
and crack another beer or three
been worried 'bout that one way road for so long

All My Luck
02:06
|

All my luck, as bad as it was there was enough to carry us across
State lines for the mere and holy joy of it
My, my, my, the way that you’ve grown you know it’s gonna tear us apart
We’ve seen it all before
And I feel I'm losing my direction
I've watched this city burn in times of desperation
too deaf for questions
and too dumb to see
so we'll blindly walk around
in hopes this night delivers answers, because
All my luck, as bad as it was there was enough to carry us across
State lines for the mere and holy joy of it
My, my, my, the way that you’ve grown you know it’s gonna tear us apart
We’ve seen it all before
I know a place down on Lake Street
It’s a secret so don’t tell to many people
It’s too cold for drinking too drunk to drive
So we can sit here and we’ll think about the Northern Lights
All my luck, as bad as it was there was enough to carry us across
State lines for the mere and holy joy of it
My, my, my, the way that you’ve grown you know it’s gonna tear us apart
We’ve seen it all before

Rock 'n Roll
02:42
|

Are you ready to twist? Are you ready to roll
Till we tear the whole house down
Like a regular rocket ready to blow, Rocket 88 come on!
Baby, baby, won’t you it turn it all up?
Let music solve all of our whoa
The public response is liberation
One more time come on!
Rock and roll is here to stay
Baby you know
Rock and roll is here to stay
Like it or not
Rock and roll is here to stay
It's gonna get loud
Rock and roll is here to stay
Like the howl of a wolf
I can hear that silver bullet come
its headed straight for my heart
this unholy work can't be undone
no kiss can save
this total slave
to what the music gave to me tonight
so let the moonlight pave redemption
and wait for me to say that
Rock and roll is here to stay
Baby you know
Rock and roll is here to stay
Like it or not
Rock and roll is here to stay
It's gonna get loud
Rock and roll is here to stay
One more time come on

Cleveland Bound
02:35
|
|||
Temperature rising, the city rumbles
up and down the lake
and I can barely recognize her
on the long walk home
Temperature rising, you lifted me higher
and farther than the sun
the city skyline scraped the clouds
and taught me how to hurt
I want to run through the red lights leaving Chicago
Cleveland bound
instead I'm slowly crawling home to you
she's got me feeling like I've got no place to go
but I know that your songs give me hope
and Ohio's still the home of rock and roll
and if you've got no one to love
you know my heart is yours
beats walking around the world all alone
so if you've got no place to go
don't you know that my home is your home
cause the music burned my soul with rock and roll
and if you've got no one to love
you know my heart is yours
beats walking around the world all alone
It's all for rock and roll
It's all for rock and roll
It's all for rock and roll

Came In Like A Hurricane
02:57
|
|||
Well you came in like a hurricane
waiting for a storm to come
and I would ask "please don't call back
until I miss you."
well you came in like a tornado
sweeping both of my legs up from under me
but I'd at least have both my arms
and was happier then
Well the reason why you'd leave me
is I was too close to you
and the reason why I'd leave you
is you were too near to her, yeah
When I came out of the hospital
you were wearing that fancy gown
that came on to me in a bar one night
when I asked you to have me
When I felt your hands around mine
and I felt your lips upon mine
and I fell - laid out on my ass
while I laid their next to you
and we were happy then
oh oh
but you were pretending that a love was there
now I don't care if we're over now
just don't leave me waiting here
oh, I don't care if we're over now
just don't leave me waiting here
Well you came in like a hurricane
when I met you by the door
you would dance with bottles of whiskey
now I barely know you anymore
well I came in like a hurricane
and you met me standing there
now I'm leaving out the back door
where I left you - waiting there
I don't care if it's over now

Spades
02:13

So long and thanks for the time, I gave you all I could
In a world that’s built on lies and the tragic thought of love
Your poison runs so thick through my vein and I’m dying to breathe
Your salty sweat, your sweet perfume, but you’re a heavy cross to bear
So long and thanks for the memories, they’re the only thing I own
And the thought of your long lost whispers breathing in my ear
“You can run, you can run, you can run from this place but it won’t change anything”
All day I dream of these angels, but there’s demons haunting me
All those long, long untold nights all you wanted was to sleep
And I begged, I begged you to stay, you couldn’t even stay awake
Inside of my there a poem for you dear and my letters they went through
So dream till you dreams all fade, and I’ll pay you back in spades.
