Monsoons I must confess that my life has been blessed but there's always something going on A whisper caress let me catch my breath cause there's always something going on Buy me some time I'll make it worth your dime cause there's always something going on But cut me a break if I'm late for a date cause there's always something going on You're saying grace while I'm saving face And our eyes are windows in two empty rooms and Our sighs are the size of monsoons Drunken sea shanties for pirates and banshees there's always something going wrong They'll make you walk the plank right into a shark tank cause there's always something going wrong I'd sleep till noon all alone in my room but there's always someone mowing lawns My love is true as a brand-new tattoo but I'm always fucked up, smoking bongs

my word it's not worth the toxic air i breath this noxious mix of raw debris asbestos and carcinogens molecules of oxygen these old habits they die hard like rasputin and captain picard our sun is just somebody's star mapped out and followed on nautical charts there's a million other worlds out there desperate alien girls out there space invaders asteroids and i'm stuck on this rock breathing this poison it's not worth anything at all these words they come easily participles, similes past imperfect, present tense waiting, hating with baited breath and compliments are cheap as dirt for an extrasensory introvert i know what you're thinking

Hey there officer friendly have you ever stopped to consider How all those years on the force have made you shameless vile and bitter When that paycheck comes and you count that sum does it make it all worthwhile The heads bashed in the pepper spray I don't mean to generalize Cause I know We've all got our jobs to do and we've all got our roles to play I'm a person just like you I guess I'm just not wired that way You get paid shit to protect the state what's in it for you A badge and a gun and a power trip but that ain't nothing new But when they cut your benefits well what you gonna do? Spend some time on the picket line they'll turn their scabs on you I'm a man of principle I just ain't no pacifist Never joined the army no you'd have to be a masochist Never fired an M16 but I won't run from a fight The only general I'll salute is that good old General Strike You get shit pay to protect the state What's in it for you A can of mace or some pepper spray You do what they tell you to Some rich guy on the radio said we're the parasites He wants to keep us divided cause we're strong when we unite so I say No war but the class wars worth kicking ass for with the working-class poor

Bring It On 01:21
Bring it On There's a war on the horizon bring it on bring it on There's a war on the horizon bring it on In the time of war men are beasts women are whores Butchers are priests killing the poor gluttons are feasting on the gore The secret police are at your door enemy fleets are at your shore There's a war on the horizon bring it on I would gladly go to war but for my bum knee and shoulder bone But I fully support our troops right or wrong Think of all those wasted lives and all those lonely soldiers wives Are gonna need my good shoulder to cry on This is gonna be a good one I can feel it in my bones Make the last look like the Fourth of July So hoist your flag and say a prayer and let our boys know that we care And appreciate their struggle and sacrifice

Cowgirl from the Planet X Where I come from it gets lonely Ain't nothing there but sand All the cowpokes are homely Gotta find me a handsome man So I took a quick trip on a rocket ship and baby here I am Ain't no one to keep me warm at night No one to share my bed I skedaddled to the nearest planet Where the cows only got one head When I saw the first cat in a ten-gallon hat this is what I said I'm a cowgirl from the Planet X I'm a cowgirl In the wild-wild west I'm a cowgirl Nice shootin' Tex I'm a cowgirl riding a T-Rex I'm a cowgirl from the Planet X And I'm here to learn all about sex You can call me an illegal alien Cause I ain't no homo sapien Don't be such a xenophobe I know you'll change your mind when I disrobe My skin is blue but my love is true I’ve come a million light years just for you

Rocky Mountain Stoned I come from the land of Ghengis Khan I'm a child of the Steppe and this is my song -Baby don't you ever leave me never gonna do you wrong The grass that grows in this tundra waste ain't got no kick aint got no taste I need a little something that will keep me rocking all night long I'm packing my bags -why baby why I'm selling my shit -don't make me cry I'm moving down to Denver so that I can get legally high Amsterdam costs too damn much You gotta be rich to get in with the Dutch Holland may be calling baby I ain't falling for her -You can't leave you got bills to pay -A man who loves you and a child on its way Baby don't you worry none you're gonna be fine I'm gonna strike it rich in a silver mine I'm packing my bags -why baby why I'm selling my shit -don't make me cry I'm moving down to Denver so that I can get legally high I got a skull face butterfly wings brass knuckles belt buckles and diamond rings hash pipes and hookas are my favorite things I'll see you down at the Springs I'm packing my bags -well start packing mine I'm selling my shit -you taking me with you girl We're moving down to Denver so that I can get legally high I'm packing my bags -you think you can get rid of me? I'm selling my shit -it ain't that easy We’re moving down to Denver so that we can get legally high

Quite a few beers ago about an hour or so they played my favorite song and the candlelight hit your eyes just right ten minutes after last call Well it's two a.m., and there's nowhere to go, I finish my drink and I stumble on home To a cold, cold bed and the all too familiar face Staring back from the mirror Say hello to the new day it looks suspiciously just like the last and I don't know if I'll wake up tomorrow unless things start changing fast I burned all my bridges and I packed all my bags, don't know where I'm going or if I'm coming back but I know I'll get no sleep till Reno

Tell the truth and they'll hang you for it Words alone ain't gonna stop this war Words alone ain't nothing but stories It'll take real bullets to settle these scores So you're better off saving your breath You can do what I did, I just left Or you can put down the remote control and pick up a brick Put it through the window of some fat, rich bourgeois prick In my name in my name Just 'cause I was born there doesn't mean that I'm to blame In my name in my name Just 'cause I was born there doesn't mean that I'm the same We can bury our head in the sands and maybe we might just strike oil Tie a yellow ribbon around the television and hide our thoughts behind tinfoil In my name in my name Just 'cause I was born there doesn't mean that I'll play your game

Toast A beer, you say? Well sure I'll have another A Porter like the one I had before For tonight we drink we may awake hungover but fuck it lads we're going off to war Where we'll fight we'll pray we'll leave our young wives widows we'll bleed upon the meadows and the glens So raise your glass and toast to a brotherhood of soldiers its a brotherhood of bandits, rogues and friends Here's to crimes we've not yet committed Drugs we haven't yet done Here's to Wine, Whiskey and Women Vodka, Tequila and Rum Here's to lovers who've never loved us and the songs we wrote in their name Here's to that old rat bastard McKinley Rotting down in his grave A toast, I'll say To the Lincolns and the Connollies to me old friend Charles Donnelly rest his soul You can live in fear Or go out guns a blazing Either way you end up in a hole
