Wig Out At Denko's

Dag Nasty Wig Out At Denko's Lyrics
1.Crucial Three

Throw my books away into the fire
I'm never gonna nee
those words again
Page by stinking page
so the crucial three would understand
but I've lost all memory of them
I don't wanna lose anymore
Chained by the crucial three
to where I stand
I stand sweating
on the shaky ground below
If the chain is broken
torn loose by the days
how would I ever know
I don't see them anymore
I don't want to lose anymore


2.Dag Nasty

I just wanna ride
so drive
I don't care where we're going to
just go
just drive
I don't care if we ever come back here
just drive
I wanna lay back and close my eyes
just let me close my eyes
Don't hold my hand
it makes me afraid
Don't hold my hand
it's too late for that
I can see your head
I can see the fire
just close your eyes
Fear is the law
duty is pain
Shame is necessary
to grind the edges from our minds
our minds
She's hurtin' now
she let the smooth taste fool her
now when she opens up her eyes
her head's on fire
She wanted to be
a fly on my wall
She thinks she'll see me change
but I don't change at all
I won't change at all
no not for you dear
I won't change at all
You wouldn't have to walk on water
if you'd just swim like the rest of us
if for once in your life
you'd just close your eyes
Put it in perspective


3.Exercise

I'm irresponsible
I'm irrational
It's irreversible
what are you gonna do!
And if it's in my head
And if I'm just paranoid
I guess it's just jealousy
when it comes to you
But you'll never guess
it's like exercising
when I try to disguise it
I avoid your eyes
you'll never know
Inside
I can't stand it at all
when every word is a lie
but I go through it all
Lies are just exercises
And I can't help myself
because I've always lied to myself
I've had to fake so much
what are you gonna do?
And if you see through it all
and I can't excuse myself
I think I need your help
to see me through
What are you gonna do?
Lies are just exercises


4.Fall

I can last a lifetime
or be done with in a day
I can be picked up
I can be thrown away
Hope that I can bounce back
after each and every fall
I'm supposed to bounce back
I am a rubber ball
Hope that I can bounce back
after each and every fall
but it's easier to fall
I'm supposed to bounce back
I can't hit you hard enough
to make you feel you're not alone
I can't touch you soft enough
to make you feel you're flesh and bone
But I'll keep on trying
even though I'm not getting through
I'll keep trying
trying to get to you


5.Safe

One for all
nothing for one
and the more on your side the better
for them
They taught you your place
I can't even see your face
I don't understand
and I can't accept that you
fell safer blending in
with the rest
And it makes me sad
that I should have to ask
Am I safe
if I don't want to be with you?
Did your new friends
ever take the time
to tell you
what they're trying to prove?
For the first time in your life
people are afraid of you


6.Simple Minds

All those years
wanting to be here
All those tragedies I screamed at
and laughed at
and threw in the trash
And still they stand
their lives burn so bright
they've long since defined
what's wrong and what's right
Can't be sensitive
It's been done
What's left to be said
will be spoken in tongues
Rumors fly
from simple minds
Simple minds
but no simple lies
Being here after all this time
being laughed at
being judged
like being in bed with a porcupine
a thousand pricks against one
All those years
waiting to be here
All those songs they laughed at
ignored
and called out of tune
And still they stand
their lives burn so bright
they've long been defined
what's wrong and what's right
Can't be sensitive
It's been done
What's left to be said
will be spoken in tongues


7.The Godfather

Always caring
always mine
still always listening
for what isn't there
it just isn't there at all
The smallest doubt can swell and grow
all hope can shrink into indifference
it makes no difference to me
I was only five
when I heard the tale
of the little train that said
"I think I can"
But what's hard to give
is hard to get
and once you've lost it
it's always gone
it's always gone
Sometimes I wish that I could cry
instead of wondering
what's on her mind
what was on my mind this time
For consolation there's
always a next time
but will you take the time?
It will take some time
Don't misunderstand
half the time I can
Don't misunderstand
half the time I only think I can
I was only five
when I heard the tale
of the little train that said
"I think I can"
But what's hard to give
is hard to get
and once you've lost it
it's always gone
it's always gone
Standing on the railroad tracks
I hear the whistle
the Godfathers call
the biggest train of all
It's speeding closer towards the bridge
I'm hoping it can show me
how it's done


8.Trying

You say it's the crossroads
the place we meet
All I'm seeing is a dead-end street
Think
of where you're going
think
of what you said
I used my heart 'till it was broken
now I'm trying to use my head
We'll bide our time
and there we'll stay
For you it's tomorrow
for me it's yesterday


9.When I Move

I'm not moved by anything
Don't wanna move for anything
'Cos it could be just anything
that starts me moving
And when I move
I won't stop for anything
stop for anything
Why build me up
just to tear me down
Why pick you up
just to throw you down
'cos it could be just anything
that starts me moving
I don't just waste my time
I waste everything inside


10.Wig Out At Denko's

This morning
what shadow
would knock on
my window
I might see
it later
can't deal with
this flavor
It's there for
the taking
but my heart's just not in it
Just sleeping
is touching
It's better
than nothing
Let me know if you go there
Mark's having
a hard time
on orange
and sunshine
Hal's spilling
malt liquor
on his Minor
Threat sticker
I'm talking
no chances
no trouble
no acid
Let's wig out
at denko's
on Coke and
Doritos
Let me know if you go there
The t.v. is so loud
but it's not outside
The stereo is too loud
so take it outside
Let's wig out at denko's
someone let yoni drive
