Who Cares A Lot-Greatest Hits

Faith No More Who Cares A Lot-Greatest Hits Lyrics
1.Ashers To Ashes

I want them to know it's me
It's on my head
I'll point the finger at me
It's on my head
Give it all to you, then i'll be closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And i'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
I'll see you
I will let you shout no more
It's on my head (it's on my head)
I'll pick you up from the floor
It's on my head (it's on my head)
I'll let you even the score
It's on my head (it's on my head)
Give it all to you, then i'll be closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And i'll wave to you with the eyes of the mountain
I'll see you
Give the same to me, then i'll be closer, closer
Give the same to me, then i'll be closer, closer
Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And i'll wave to you with the eyes of the mountain
Give the same to me, then i'll be closer, closer
Give the same to me, then i'll be closer, closer

She loves me not


2.A Small Victory

a hierarchy
Spread out on the nightstand
The spirit of team
Salvation is another chance
A sore loser
Yelling with my mouth shut

A cracking portrait
The fondling of trophies
The null of losing
Can you afford that luxury?
A sore winner
But i'll just keep my mouth shut

It shouldn't bother me
But it does

The small victories
The cankers and medallions
<<>>
They keep me thinking
That someday
I might beat you
But i'll just keep my mouth shut

It shouldn't bother me
But it does

If i speak at one constant volume at one constant pitch at one
constant rhythm
Right into your ear, you still wont hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear


3.Digging The Grave

It would be wrong to ask you why
Because i know what goes inside
Is only half of what comes out
Isn't that what it's about?
To remind us we're alive
To remind us we're not blind
In that big, black hole
Comfortable
Digging the grave, i got it made
Let something in, or throw something out?
You left the door open wide
I know you have a reason why
That knot is better left untied
I just went and undid mine
It takes some time
And the shadows so big
It takes the sun out of the day
And the feeling goes away
If you close the door
Comfortable


4.Easy

Know it sounds funny but i just can't stand the pain
Girl i'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl you know i've done all i can
You see i begged, stole and i borrowed
Yeah
That's why i'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning
That's why i'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning
I wanna be high
Soo high
I wanna be free to know the things i do are right
I wanna be free
Just me
Oh baby
That's why i'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning
That's why i'm easy
I'm easy like sunday morning


5.Epic

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
You want it all but you can't have it
It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?...


6.Evidence

If you want to open your hole
Just put your head down and go
Step beside the piece of the circumstance
Got to wash away the taste of evidence
Wash it away(evidence)
I didn't feel a thing
It didn't mean a thing
Look in the eye and testify:
I didn't feel a thing
Anything you say, we know you're guilty
Hands above your head,
And you won't even feel me
You won't feel me


7.Falling To Pieces

Back and forth, i sway with the wind
Resolution slips away again
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark
Sometimes i think i'm blind
Or i may be just paralyzed
Because the plot thickens every day
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away
But i know, there's a picture beneath
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens...
Because i'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, i'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together
Layin' face down on the ground
My fingers in my ears to block the sound
My eyes shut tight to avoid the sight
Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight
Droplets of 'yes' and 'no'
In an ocean of 'maybe'
From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline
From the top, another downhill slope of mine
But i know, the equilibrium's there
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens
Because i'm somewhere in between
My love and my agony
You see, i'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together


8.From Out Of Nowhere

Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
You splash me with beauty and pull me down
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
Obsession rules me-i'm yours from the start
I know you see me-our eyes interlock
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if i'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...
Sifting to the bottom, every day for two
All energy funnels, all becomes you
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare
One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if i'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And it hurts inside
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...


9.Introduce Yourself

From the day i was born, i took the bull by the horns, and gave
you
Plenty to scorn, well right on! then you said in a song that
life was
Gettin real tough, but hey i think that you're bluffing, what of
it?
Introduce yourself (right on!)
Now two decades gone by and i know that's a long time, para
tiempo means
Nada nunca. cause i'm still the same asshole and i still wet my
pants
Every time that i see your face (who are you?)
Introduce yourself (right on!)
Hey mr. biggs, hey mr. bestall, hey mr. warner what's up?
Hey mr. enigma, hey mr. bigtime, hey mr. epic, what's going on?
Introduce yourself (right on!)


10.I Started A Joke

i started a joke
Which started the whole world crying
Oh but i didn't see
That the joke was on me...oh no..
And i started to cry
Which started the whole world laughing
Oh if i'd only seen
That the joke was on me

And i looked at the skies
Running my hands
Over my eyes
And i fell out of bed
Cursing my head
For things that i've said

Till i finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh if i'd only seen
That the joke was on me

And i looked at the skies
Running my hands
Over my eyes
And i fell out of bed
Cursing my head
For things that i've said

Till i finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh if i'd only seen
That the joke was on me
That the joke was on me.........me.........


11.Last Cup Of Sorrow

This is getting old and so are you
Everything you know and never knew
Will run through your fingers just like sand
- enjoy it while you can -
Like a snake between two stones
It itches, in your bones
Take a deep breath and swallow, your sorrow, tomorrow
Raise the cup and let's propose a toast
To the thing that hurts you most
It's your last cup of sorrow
What can you say?
Finish it today
It's your last cup of sorrow
So think of me
And get on your way
It won't begin until you make it end
Until you know the how the where and the when
With a new face you might surprise yourself
Like a snake between two stones
It itches, in your bones
Take a deeper breath and swallow, your sorrow, tomorrow
Raise the cup and let's propose a toast
To the thing that hurts you most
Is your last cup of sorrow
What can you say?
Finish it today
It's your last cup of sorrow
So think of me
And get on your way


12.Midlife Crisis

Go on and wring my neck
Like when a rag gets wet
A little discipline
For my pet genius
My head is like a lettuce
Go on and dig your thumbs in
I cannot stop giving
I'm thirty-something
Sense of security
Like pockets jingling
Midlife crisis
Suck ingenuity
Down through the family tree
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleeding enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...
What an inheritance
The salt and the kleenex
Morbid self attention
Bending my pinky back
A little discipline
A donor by habit
A little discipline
Rent an opinion
Sense of security
Holding blunt instrument
I'm a perfectionist
And perfect is a skinned knee
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleeding enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...............


13.Stripsearch

It's over today
The heat is gone, time is gone
F for fake
I feel no wrong, hide no wrong
I love this place, the lights
Under this face, so dry
Only way to change, give yourself away
Don't be ashamed, next in line
Close one eye, just walk by
In these days
I'm breathing stone, crying alone
I'll win this race
I'll leave alone, arrive alone
Love this place, the lights
Under this face, so dry
Stripped to the bone
I did no wrong
Truth is my name
Give yourself away


14.The Gentle Art Of Marking Enenies

The words are so familiar-
All the same greats, the same mistakes
It doesn't have to be like this.
If you don't make a friend, now
One might make you-
So learn
The gentle art of making enemies
Don't look so surprised
Happy birthday...fucker
Blow that candle out,
We're gonnaa kick you
All you need is just one more excuse
You put up one hell of a fight
I wanna hear your very best excuse
Never felt this much alive
Your day has finally come -
So wear the hat and do the dance
And let the suit keep wearing you.
This year you'll sit and take it
And you will like it -
It's the gentle art of making enemies
I deserve a reward
Cuz i'm the best fuck that you ever had
And if i tighten up my hole -
You may never see the light again
Never felt this much alive

Star a.d.
