Tracks



01. Caught In A Dream

Well I'm runnin throught he world
with a gun in my back
tryin' to catch a ride in a Cadillac
Thought that I was livin'
but you can't really tell
been tryin' to get a whiff
of that success smell

I need a houseboat
I need a plane
I need a butler
and a trip to Spain
I need everything
the world owes me
I tell that to myself
and I agree

I'm caught in a dream
So What!
You don't know what I'm goin' through
I'm right in between
So I'll
I'll just play along with you

Well I'm runnin' through the world
with a gun in my back
tryin' to catch a ride in that Cadillac
thought that I was livin'
but you can't never tell
what I thought was heaven
turned out to be hell

Whoa-o-oh
When you see me with a smile on my face
Whoa-o-oh
Then you'll know I'm a mental case

Whoa-o-oh Oh
Whoa-o-oh Oh
Whoa-o-oh

I'm caught in a dream
So what!
I don't know what I'm going through
I'm right in between
So I'll
I'll just play along with you

02. I'm Eighteen

Lines form on my face and hands
Lines form from the ups and downs
I'm in the middle without any plans
I'm a boy and I'm a man

I'm eighteen
and I don't know what I want
Eighteen
I just don't know what I want
Eighteen
I gotta get away
I gotta get out of this place
I'll go runnin in outer space
Oh yeah

I got a
baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talkin' about
Feels like I'm livin in the middle of doubt
Cause I'm

Eighteen
I get confused every day
Eighteen
I just don't know what to say
Eighteen
I gotta get away

Lines form on my face and my hands
Lines form on the left and right
I'm in the middle
the middle of life
I'm a boy and I'm a man
I'm eighteen and I LIKE IT
Yes I like it
Oh I like it
Love it
Like it
Love it
Eighteen!
Eighteen!
Eighteen!
Eighteen and I LIKE IT

03. Long Way To Go

We still got a long way to go
We still got a long way to go
We all got a long way to go

What's keeping us apart isn't selfishness
What's holding us together isn't love
Listen to the man who's been
touched all his life
Yes he's the one they call the fool

Where is the savior of the sidewalk life
and the road that takes us to the crusades
I've seen the shadows
as they're moving in my sleep
leading the blind poet to his grave

We still got a long way to go
We still got a long way to go
Yes we all got a long way to go

Please don't waste your energy on me my friend
cause we still got a long way to go
we'll meet again some day
but right now just go away
cause I still got a long way to go

The silence is speaking
so why am I weeping
I guess I love it
I love it to death

We still got a long way to go
Yes we still got a long way to go
Yes we all got a long way to go

04. Black Juju

Body
Body

Touched by the toil and plunged into his arm
Cursed thru the night thru eyes of alarm
A melody black flowed out of my breath
Searching for death, but bodies need rest

Body

Under the soil now waiting for worms
All that I feared is all that I've learned
All that I know is all that I think
Dead feelings are cool, down lower I sink, ah-hah

Bodies need rest, we all need our rest
Sleep an easy sleep ---rest---rest
Bodies need their rest
We all need our rest
Sleep an easy sleep ---rest---rest---rest---rest
But come back in the morning
Come back hard

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

Bodies

Clutching and biting my soul has caught on fire
My evil is now and I'm caught up in desire
Ev'rything I'm living for is all that I am
Liking it and loving it that's all in the plan

05. Is It My Body

What have I got
that makes you want to love me
Is it my body
or someone I might be
or somethin' inside me

You better tell me
Tell me
It's really up to you
Have you got the time to find out
Who I really am

What does it take
to get inside of your mind
Give me a break
and take a chance for the very first time

You better tell me
Tell me
It's really up to you
Have you got the time to find out
Who I really am

What have I got
that makes you want to love me
Now is it my body
or someone I might be
or somethin' in side me

You better tell me
Tell me
It's really up to you
Have you got the time to find out
Who I really am

06. Hallowed Be My Name

Gather round right now
and hear me whisper
the words of the prison
the words of laughter
The lords and the ladies
were fixing their hair-dos
cursing their lovers
cursing the Bible

Hallow-ed by my name
yelling at fathers
screaming at mothers
Hallow-ed by my name

come all you sinners
Come now in your glory
and my ears will listen
to your dirty stories
you're fighting to go up
you're sure on your way down
cursing their lovers
cursing the Bible

Hallow-ed by my name
yelling at fathers
screaming at mothers
Hallow-ed by my name

Sluts and the hookers
have taken your money
The queens are out dancing
but now it's not funny
'Cause there goes one walkin'
away with your sonny
cursing their lovers
cursing the Bible

Hallow-ed by my name
yelling at fathers
screaming at mothers
Hallow-ed by my name

07. Second Comin'

I couldn't tell
if the bells were getting louder
The songs they ring I finally recognize
I only know
Hell is getting hotter
the Devil's getting smarter all the time

And it would be nice
to walk upon the water
to talk again to angels
at my side

Time is getting closer
I read it on a poster
fanatical exposers
on corners prophesy

It would be nice
to walk upon the water
to talk again to angels
on my side

I just come back to show you
all your words are golden
so have no gods before me
I'm the light

08. Ballad Of Dwight Fry

Mommy where's daddy? He's been gone for so long.
Do you think he'll ever come home?

I was gone for fourteen days
I coulda been gone for more
Held up in the intensive care ward
lyin on the floor

I was gone for all those days
but I, was not all alone
I made friends with a lot of people
in the danger zone

See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my only mind explode
Since I've gone away

I think I lost some weight there
and I---I'm sure I need some rest
Sleepin don't come very easy
in a straight white vest

Should like to see that little children
She's only four years old---old
I'd give her back all of her play things
even, even the ones I stole

See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my lonely mind explode
when I've gone insane

I wanna get out of here
I wanna, I wanna get out of here
I gotta get out of here
I gotta get out of here
IgottagetoutahereIgottagetoutahereIgottagetoutahere
Ya gotta let me out of here
Let me outta here
I gotta get outta here
Let me outta here
I gotta get outta here
Let me outta here
I gotta get outta here

See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my only mind explode
Blow up in my face

I grabbed my hat and I got my coat
and I, I ran into the street
I saw a man that was choking there
I guess he couldn't breathe
Said to myself this is very strange
I'm glad it wasn't me
But now I hear those sirens callin'
and so I am not free

I didn't wanna be
I didn't wanna be
I didn't wanna be
(See my lonely life unfold)
I didn't wanna be
(I see it every day)
Leave me alone I didn't wanna be
Don't Touch me!
See my lonely mind explode
when I've gone insane!

09. Sun Arise

Sun Arise come every mornin'
Sun Arise come every mornin'
Sun Arise come every mornin'
Bringin' back the warmth to the ground

Sun Arise fillin' up the hollow
Sun Arise fillin' up the hollow
Sun Arise fillin' up the hollow
Bringin' back the warmth to the ground

Sun Arise, she come every mornin'
Sun Arise, each and every day
Sun Arise, she come every mornin'
Sun Arise
ever-y ever-y ever-y ever-y

She drive away the darkness everyday
She drive away the darkness everyday
She drive away your darkness everyday
Bringin' back the warmth to the ground

Sun Arise
Whoa-oh-oh
Sun Arise
Whoa-oh-oh
Sun Arise
Whoa-oh-oh
ever-y ever-y ever-y ever-y
