1.The Midnight Picture Show
Tales of fright in the dark of night
Monster movies in black and white
It gives me thrills when I get the chills
From sci-fi／horror night double bills
Universal or R.K.O.
You can find me sitting in the front row
I just can't wait
For the midnight picture show
I can't wait to go there tonight
The clock is ticking
But I'm still burning the daylight
I'm gonna make sure everything's right
When I go there tonight
For a matinee fee what I wanna see
Is the creature fighting Dracula in 3-D
The crawling hand of Charlie Chan
Or the Mummy meets the invisible man
There in a darkened room
The silver screen will shine
Stars of a bygone age
Come back to play one last time
2.Every Day Is Saturday
Every day's Saturday when you're doin' time
I don't have to leave this room
Every day's Saturday when you're doin' time
Have a smoke and watch cartoons
Every day's Saturday when you're doin' time
I've got no place to be
Every day's Saturday when you're doin' time
Except the penitentiary
I'm stuck behind these bars for 25 to life
For robbing a liquor store and
Bumpin' off my wife
You don't have to feel sorry for me
That would never do
Sittin' around here is never lonely
'Cause all my friends are in here too
And we're saving a spot for you
Wednesday's visitation day
But you're never here
Don't wanna see me？ That's O.K.
I don't miss you like the beer
3.Forever In My Dreams
I can't forget that night
Or the argument that made you run away
I thought you'd come back soon
But soon became a year and seven days
I stood there petrified
As they dragged your car
Out of Laurel Lake
The overwhelming guilt
That it's all my fault
Was all my heart could take
At night you always seem so near
It sometimes feels like you're still here
Your voice will never fade away
Forever in my dreams
I know you're always gonna stay
Forever in my dreams
You're always young, with wings to fly
Forever in my dreams
One place I know you'll never die
Forever in my dreams
I hear your footsteps walking
Around the room where our time was spent
I hope you know I miss you
I need to tell you how much that you meant
Today I'll drive to Roselawn
Hang my head and
Put flowers on your grave
Why did we always argue
It's not the way that brothers should behave
4.King Just For A Day
Down and out again
It's nothing new
I guess it's always been this way, everyday
There's nothing I can do
I can't face the world again
Go back to bed
When you start with nothing
There's nothing that you can do
I just can't get ahead
With my back against the wall
I'm prepared to take the fall
I don't think I'll ever hear them say
King just for a day
If only once it would be nice
After all my sacrifice
Carved in stone above my grave
King just for a day
I've worked my life away
For someone else
Nothing to show for all my work
Like a jerk
I've done it all myself
Don't try to lend a hand
'Cause I'm too proud
I'm a self-made man,
A man that's turned into
A blank face in the crowd
5.The Voice
Transmission incoming from higher command
What are my orders today
You want me to eat from a garbage can
Yes sir, I hear and obey
I've been on this mission all my life
For zero pay, but that's O.K.
The voice in my head controls me
It keeps me from feeling lonely
The voice in my head controls me
A mission for me and me only
One agent alone in your nation
My specialty's infiltration
They're coming to capture and hold me
The voice in my head just told me
Undercover in a land of enemy spies
I live disguised as a bum
Primary target, discovering lies
What will their purpose become
6.Genuine Whiskey Man
Woke up drunk again this morning
Blood on my sleeve and
Puke chunks in my hair
I don't care
And neither does this girl beside me
What was her name
I know her from somewhere
Just look at my hair in the mirror
It's turning grey
Give me another bartender
What else can I say
I don't remember last night
I know it's sometimes better to forget
They say that I'm scraping the bottom
At least I know I haven't been there yet
Won't care until it's too late
It's early, but I'm doing what I can
Tonight I'm gonna get drunk
I'm making my stand, a genuine whiskey man
Came in late to work again
Antoher hangover rumored as a flu
They don't have a clue
They know that such a fine young man
Would never hang around
The places that I do
7.Rebel Souls
Jenny knew which boy she liked
The only one with a motorbike
With a gleam in his eye
He was always combin' back his hair
She never saw him at school
He was too busy being cool
In his black leather jacket
He was king of anywhere
Rebel souls with their shadows of mystery
Tough to the last
Are becoming just a part of our history
Memories from the past
What happened to the heroes of yesterday
Where have they gone
Their vision's too important to fade away
We'll have to carry it on
Johnny was a teenage punk
Starting fights and getting drunk
He was ready for a rumble
With a switchblade at his side
Jenny hid and cried that day
She wanted to run away
When she overheard them say
That Johnny died
8.Bandwagon
Issues of the day
Have become the latest craze
Propaganda wastes your time
And warps your mind
Tell me what you'll find
When you investigate
Intimidate, eliminate your friends
For refusing to walk your narrow line
How could you be so blind
So critical, analytical
You're selling but I'm not buying
Just put your point of view aside
And we'll get along just fine
I'm not biblical, or political
You judgement of me ain't flying
This bandwagon's full of hypocrites
And I'm not going along for the ride
The movement of your cause
Only builds up higher walls
Between the converted and the lost
A social albatross
It's down to one on one
You've just begun to come undone
Without your bland rhetorical blurbs
You're naked and absurd
9.How Long
How long, how long, how long,
How long, please tell me, how long
'Til you tell me that he's gone, how long
Too many time I have seen your cryin' eyes
While you're standing there with him
As your future's growing dim
You're afraid,
Though you're trying to be strong
It's a challenge to be brave
When he's oblivious to the pain
And it won't be very long
'Til you crumble from the strain
(It's wrong)
Indications on your arm
Tell the story of the harm
Of your father's power trip
All your bruises fit his grip
It's a crime
But you think that it's all your fault
'Cause it happens all the time
'You're an idiot', 'Be a man'
Now you wanna shut his mouth
Feel the shotgun in your hand
(You can)
10.West End Road
Drove past the old house today
And couldn't realize
Whey my new friends couldn't see
The home that I saw with my eyes
Then I remembered that I hadn't
Been there in so long
And the things I'd seen
And things I'd done
Were memories that had gone
They'd just laugh and call me
The old sentimental fool
I know they're right
So I'll try to hide the pain
Because it breaks my
Heart to hear them say
Tear down the house on West End Road
It's been condemned a year and a day
It's paint is chipped, the bricks are old
The city says it's just in the way
Tear down the house on West End Road
It once was home to all of my dreams
Back when we were so young and bold
Has it really been so long
Since we fell apart at the seams
(Seems) Like just the other day
I saw it the first time
It needed paint, it needed work
It was run-down, but was mine
You wouldn't know it if you
Went and looked at it today
But that house hold the most
Treasured part of my past, in a way
11.Camera Shy
So well composed
You seem like absolute perfection
Much to perfect for a boy
Who is used to big rejection, so I
I watch you through a lens
Just slightly out of focus
You're so flawless in your smile
Although you never seem to notice and I
I never really thought that you'd be mine
Not in my dreams for a minute
I never really thought that you'd be mine
I'm tellin' myself to forget it
You wouldn't understand that you
Inspire me and fuel my photography
I never really thought that you'd be mine
I know that I'm just a dreamer (but)
You never really know when worlds collide
It could create something special
Or maybe we would just all explode and die
I guess I'm just too camera shy
Alone in my darkroom
I hang pictures that are drying
All the pictures are of you
And it's hard to keep from crying when I
I only see you through a
Lens that's telescopic
And you don't know that I'm there
But you're still my only topic and I
12.I Don't Want Her
Oh, here she comes again, Ms. Nasty
Walking like the princess of the ball
Avoiding all the jealous girls
She thinks that all the boys
Are waiting on her beck and call
Why in the world has she singled me out
As the object of her dirty lust
What can I say to make sure there's no doubt
That she fills me with utter disgust
Please tell me 'cause
I don't want her telephone number
I don't want to give her a call
Forget about the flowers
And the chocolate covered candy
'Cause I don't even want her at all
Come here and put your arms around me
If only so she'll see me holding you
I've tried a hundred million ways
Of giving her the hint
But she still hasn't gotten a clue
13.Comin' Down
I just had to get away this morning
To keep you off my mind
Your memory haunts me without warning
And I need a place to hide
And a little help to just unwind
I want it, 'cause I'm comin' down
I was touchin' a place where I wanna stay
I need it, 'cause I'm comin' down
Can't face the fact that you've gone away
Gotta have it, 'cause I'm comin' down
I can't lose the way that I feel inside
I'll just pretend that you're still with me
To help me ease the pain
I'll still deny it until I'm fifty
Or until I go insane
From a drug contorted brain
14.The Team
There's a spark that ignites the internal fire
It makes us strive for the best we can be and higher
Sometimes we stumble and we're back at the start
But it won't matter 'cause we're used to it hard
That's why it won't get us down, it's just the way that we are
It's not just the way that it works out sometimes
'Cause that we have was bought with our last dimes
Wherever we go through the rain and snow
From the sand and the sun to whichever way the wind blows
Each of our hearts make up equal parts
And they're bound by a cause that can't be held to man's laws
Facing the odds as human lighting rods
We grow strong from our pain though we've gone a little insane
Together we're one and as one we'll fall
However dark it seems, don't underestimate the team
Road life brings each of us close together
We don't sleep 'cause we know that it's now or never
It may be tough to ride and sleep in a van
Suspicious looks and hiding out from the man
Can't tell us we're not a movement we just play in a band
We know what we want and we want it right now
Don't stand in our way 'cause we'll get it somehow
