You're so problematic
And I know it's symptomatic
Of you own masochistic ills
A psychoanalyzer would say
"Better tranquilize her.
Numb her with some of these pills."

A triple case of nerves
Is more than you deserve
But you've only got yourself to blame
You're sick and sadistic
That's why I go ballistic

Your excuses always sound so lame
Your love is for sale, yeah
I won't be the buyer
Bogged down in your emotional mire
You're not my messiah
Just another liar
Go find another bank roll to hire

Your mind is barren, stark
It must be stuck in park
You'd better get your shit together
You know what they say
"Tomorrow's another day.
Things can always get better."

Been on my best behavior
You are not my savior
You are just another vice
Was I this week's flavor?
Just do me a favor
And stay the fuck out of my life

Won't be your provider
You're a coat-tail rider
That's why I'm so glad we're through
Your brain's a short circuit
That's why I'd rather jerk it
Than spend another night with you

Your mind is barren, stark
It must be stuck in park
You'd better get your shit together
You know what they say
"tomorrow's another day.
Things can always get better."
Things can always get better
Things can always get better

I love life but I don't think life loves me
I'll recreate my own reality
The teachers and the preachers, they all lied to me
There's no end to what a kid will believe

You don't know what's going on
You believe what you've been told
You don't know what's up
You believe what you've been told

Columbus didn't discover america
Jesus wasn't the only son of god
If he even was the son at all
If there even is a god at all

Man on the platform builds a funeral pyre
Sign on the post says, "today we burn the liar"
Unbelievable nightmare, my body's on fire
Wish I could just wake up, flames around me growing higher

Hungry vets carrying signs to our shame
Starving homeless soldiers
And who's to blame?
Once protected our freedom and our lives

Now society has cut all ties
Once trained to defend our rights
At the risk of his own ass
Now sleeps in a cardboard box

Under the overpass
Under -- under the overpass

Like discarded pawns in a sick game of chess
Seems to be no place for them in this mess
A dime or a penny, whatever you can spare
They would work for food
For those of you who care

All used up and thrown out
Just like a worn out part
Keeps all that he owns
In a shopping cart

Under the overpass
Under -- under the overpass

I got a letter in the mail just the other day
Opened it up, this is what it had to say:
"wouldn't you please give us the pleasure
Of having you at our table tonite?
From, the donner family"
We've been hungry for such a long time
And we've eaten our dogs and rawhide
We've got half of our family on ice
They would not want the rest of us to die
They would not want the rest of us to die

They don't care
They would not have us starve to death
We're so cold
We're freezing and there's nothing left
They don't care
I'm sure that they wouldn't mind
It's so bad
Half of us are snow blind

It's too late now, we can never go back
We can make up for the protein we lack
Four days of no food have left us all weak
I feel like i can't stand on my own two feet
My own two feet, my own two feet

We've been waiting for such a long time
For some word of help or some sign
That someone's coming to our rescue
Until then, we'll do what we have to
Until then, we'll do what we have to

They don't care
They would not have us die this way
It's like this
We have to find some food today
They don't care
They knew what we were going through
They don't care
This is what it's come to

We never felt like we could really do it
Now we're just thankful we all lived through it
We ate those people because we were hungry
Yeah, we're survivors of the donner family
The donner family

We've been hungry for such a long, long time
And we've eaten our dogs and rawhide
We've got half of our family on ice
They would not want the rest of us to die
They would not want the rest of us to die

They don't care
They would not have us starve to death
We're so cold
We're freezing and there's nothing left
They don't care
I'm sure that they wouldn't mind
It's so bad
Half of us are snow blind

I got a letter in the mail just the other day
Opened it up, this is what it had to say:
"wouldn't you please give us the pleasure
Of having you at our table tonite?
From, the donner family"
The donner family
The donner family

Come apart under stress
Opened up, I won't confess
Pulled apart, they're four of me
Opened up, an oddity

Changing with the times
Like rolling with the punches
Basing my decisions
On theories and hunches

All I ever wanted to do
Was move forward
Being pulled
Four directions at once
Drawn and quartered

Come apart at the seams
Opened up for all to see
Coming apart, but I don't cry
Opened up, but I won't bleed

I won't, I won't bleed for
I won't, I won't bleed for you

I won't let you see
What's really inside me
Hidden somewhere in between
Buried beneath the skin and bone
Away rom the smiles which are lies
Ripped apart, I just laugh

Opened up, can't help but laugh
Torn open, an open book
Opened up, please don't look

I won't let you see
What's really inside me
Hidden somewhere in between
Buried beneath the skin and bone
Away rom the smiles which are lies
Please don't, please don't look at
Please don't, please don't look at me

Seasons change and they change you
Round you go life, and then there you are
Life is hard, you know the truth
Old age creeps up, robs you of your youth
Through sheer luck we survive
I'm surprised that we're even alive
The sum of all you are
Is all in your mind
There is no fast forward
And there is no rewind
Death will end the game
Now it's time to begin
Another sacred soul
Starting over again
Back and forth you pace your cage
Is all the world a stage?
Bite your tail, climb the walls
Rat race got you by the balls?
Be true to your own views
Put yourself in others' shoes
Don't you worry very much
Nothing matters, there's no end
My head's hollow, no heart of gold
Lost my morals, my conscience is on hold
May the good outshine the bad
Remember all the good times that we had

They force feed you love, then serve you hate
What are they teaching? I just can't relate
Altar boys are the victims he defiled
He took advantage of the virgin child
Got them drunk and told them what to do
He won't say it, but you know it's true
There's a reason why he remains free
Hides behind the cloak of the clergy
He was a man, they were just boys
Human beings, not just toys
A god who'd allow such atrocity
Ain't no good god to me
No redemption for what he did
Crimes committed on a little kid
What do you say? Don't wait for a sign
Trust in god and have peace of mind
He took something, he can't give it back
Took that innocence, can't give that back
Altar boys are the victims he defiled
He took advantage of the virgin child
Got them drunk and told them what to do
He won't say it, but you know it's true
A catholic priest, he's committed to sin
What would they say at the vatican?

There once was a park where the kids used to go
But not anymore 'cause their parents all know
There's junkies and whores and bums drinking beer
And the tragic event that happened last year
Two kids were playing, digging in the sand
One with a shovel and one with his hand
Jabbed by a needle carrying hiv
And now he's infected with the disease
He found syringes in the sandbox
He found syringes in the sandbox
The cops just watch 'cause they're on the take
Maybe the don't know what is at stake
The lives of children, with certainty
Maybe the rest of the community
We're only human, what can you expect?
Just shows the life we're willing to accept
Another drive-by, everyone stares
What it comes down to is nobody cares
He found syringes in the sandbox
He found syringes in the sandbox

Who am I?
D.R.I.
Who am I?
Three simple words
Who am I?
A human being
Who am I?
This weird thing
Who am I?
Not what I seem
Repeat all [4x]
[Chorus:]
Who am I ? D.R.I. [3x]
D.R.I.

I don't trust that girl with a gun
Something about a girl with a gun
The way they fly off the handle
Someone's gonna get hurt
She's gonna hurt someone
That girl's got a gun
She's got a 28
She's got a 38
She's got a 357 magnum
She sleeps with one stashed in her bed
And she's packing one in her purse
I was thinking yesterday
I don't know which one is worse
She's gonna hurt someone
That girl's got a gun
She's got a 28
She's got a 38
She's got a 357 magnum
My god, girl, where have you been?
And where will you be tomorrow?
I see you smothered in your sin
And surrounded by your sorrow
She's gonna hurt someone
That girl's got a gun
Girl with a gun, girl with a gun
Girl with a gun, girl with a gun

You don't see the blood
You don't see the pain
You don't see the bolt
Going through their brain
You don't smell the death
You don't hear their cries
You don't see the fear
Flashing in their eyes
You feed upon the meat of the weak
The weak must die to satisfy
The needs of the strong
Their purpose in life
Can't be to make you fat
We've got to stop thinking like that!
You don't see the blood
You don't see the pain
You don't see the bolt
Going through their brain
You don't smell the death
You don't hear their cries
You don't see the fear
Flashing in their eyes
They laugh as they sharpen their knives
It's party time and something has to die
The meek must die to stock you fridge
And the full freezers of the bloody steak house
You feed upon the meat of the weak
The weak must die to satisfy
The needs of the strong
Their purpose in life
Can't be to make you fat
We've got to stop thinking like that!
The sacrificial lamb
Offered to a blood-thirsty god
Throat cut, oceans of blood
Let in guild and fear
No more, all of your sins
Have been paid for in prayer
Knowing this, I'm sure we should honor
No with death, but with life
You don't see the blood
You don't see the pain
You don't see the bolt
Going through their brain
You don't smell the death
You don't hear their cries
You don't see the fear
Flashing in their eyes
Carnivores congregate to partake in
The feeding, feasting on the flesh
Civilized citizens gather 'round the table
Ready for the sacrifice
They laugh as they sharpen their knives
It's party time and something has to die
The meek must die to stock your fridge
And the full freezers of the bloody steak house
You feed upon the meat of the weak
The weak must die to satisfy
The needs of the strong
Their purpose in life
Can't be to make you fat
We've got to stop thinking like that!

When it comes down to the wire
No one will help, every man for himself
When it comes down t the wire
You have to do what you can for yourself

There's a contract out on me
Now there's no safe place to be
I'm on the run all day and night
Laying low, staying out of sight

I'm not sure if I can take it
I don't know if I can make it
All the money in the world
Can't buy a true friend

When it comes down, down to the wire
When it comes down, down to the wire
I'm so tired, but I don't dare go to sleep

How did I get in so deep?
I learned something that I'd rather not know
Maybe I could make it down to mexico
I know way more than I'd like to admit
And they know I know, that's why the hit
It's the not knowing when that I really dread
They'll be after me until I'm dead

When it comes down to the wire
No one will help, every man for himself
When it comes down t the wire
You have to do what you can for yourself

Can't go to work, I can't go home
Gotta face it, I'm alone
Hiding behind every bush and tree
May be someone waiting for me
It could be someone that I know
Can't think of a worse way to go
Could even be a good friend they hire

When it comes down to the wire
When it comes down, down to the wire
When it comes down, down to the wire

Way down here on level 7
So far from the radiation
Push-button soldiers underground
Stationed seven levels down
We're even deeper than the president
We are permanent residents
We're here for the duration
Only we could kill the world
All of us at pb command
We're prepared to make the last stand
We have been provided for
Food and water have been stored
Much deeper than the politicians
Scientists and top technicians
Way down here on level 7
Hiding from the radiation
We've got this to worry about
If there's a leak, there's no way out
There's five thousand feet of rock
That should be enough to block
The side effects brought by our destruction
We can only feel privileged
No word from 1 through 5
Must assume no one left alive
Way down here on level 7
Dying from the radiation
Level 6 reports symptoms
Caused only by radiation sickness
Some of us are feeling ill
Starts with vomiting and chills
No one answers on the radio
The end will surely come, but slowly
Good-bye from all of us
Way down here on level 7

Give all my money to chicks
And the dude at the corner store
After I pay the landlord
I ain't got no more
Money comes and money goes
It's already spent
But it's no mystery
Where it all went
That's why I'm always broke
Hey man, it ain't no joke
I can't seem to save
Pay my bills or behave
If it wasn't for that monthly bill
I'd be a millionaire
"hey guys, up here in front
Just pull up a chair
Girl, come on over here
You can drink your fill
Bartender, keep 'em coming
Put 'em on my bill"
That's why I'm always broke
Hey man, it ain't no joke
I can't seem to save
Pay my bills or behave

Ever had one of those days? Argumentative, no incentive
Can't do anything right
I'm trying so hard to analyze and compromise
But there's no solution in sight
Can I live up to your greed? Shopping, buying, spending, lending
I can't give you all you need
What we have here is a complicated situation
Are you listening to me?
You can change your number and your address
Tell your roommates to tell me you left
You can say you went to germany
Or some other foreign country
There's so many fish in the sea
Every time I turn around
There's a pretty girl and I fall for her
Can't help myself, I guess I'm a sucker
There's no way that I can change the pathways
In the dark maze of my mind
I guess I could try, but I'm so lazy
And I just can't find the time
That tall girl answered you door, not too happy, forced a smile
Picking her face with a fork
She said that you had gone bungee jumping or something
Somewhere in upstate new york
Gathered the courage to ask when you left, when you'd be back
In answering, she was slow
Forking her face, she said "left today, back on friday"
But she didn't really know
Scattered fragments of my crushed hope
My cracked, black heart on the floor
When it comes time to pick, up the pieces
I hope that the jigsaw puzzle's complete
You can't have your cake and eat it, too
You think that? You must be high on glue
I told you before, again and again
I'm no different than other men
So my eyes have been known to roam
But they always came back to you
I just want to say that I can't change
And I don't need any help from you
Dreamy days, drunken nights
Acid words, nasty fights
Cheating hear, roaming eye
Lying lips, start to cry
Poison tears, lipstick trace
I've become your disgrace
Jealous love, aching soul
Relationships as a whole
Fall apart over time
And break down

I can't tell you anything you don't already know
And I'm really not the type to say, "I told you so."
But accidents can always happen, death is always near
So if you drive to hell and back, don't let the devil steer
You may think it's strange that you are living your own death
So before you go under, you'd better take a deep breath
You can only have on shot at life, don't swing and miss
Don't put too much trust in anyone, and remember this
Underneath the surface, it's much worse than it seems
And I can tell you, brother, life ain't just a dream
Underneath the surface, you won't have much to say
And I can tell you, brother, it's cold inside your grave
I could tell you all exactly what you want to hear
You're all gonna live forever, nothing more to fear
But I don't want to live forever, i'll leave that to you
I just want to live until there's nothing else to do
Underneath the surface, buried for eternity
And I hate to think about just how long that could be
Underneath the surface, planted, but you will not grow
No roots, no leaves, no seeds of life. Guess that just goes to show
Underneath the surface, it's much worse than it seems
And I can tell you, brother, life ain't just a dream
Underneath the surface, you won't have much to say
And I can tell you, brother, it's cold inside your grave
Everything you really need is right in front of you
Take a big bite out of life, but don't forget to chew
You can only have one shot at life, don't swing and miss
Don't put too much trust in anyone, and remember this
Underneath the surface, we all go insane
