The Badlees Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Back Where We Came From

A lot of folks do well enough leavin' well enough alone
But that was never true for me and you
Livin' like the characters in 'Like a Rolling Stone'
Confirming things that we already knew
You were young and pretty - Me, well, I was young
Leastways young enough not to need a reason
I was for the memories and you were for the fun
And we were both just fillin' up the season

Pre Chorus:
With no dreams and no plans and no schemes
Somehow here we are again

Chorus:
Na........na na na na na
We're ending up back where we came from
Na........na na na na na na........

We had beer and 'Jack' and Kerouak and weekends on the fringe
And lots of time to think about tomorrow
But it seems our little bivouac was more than just a binge
Sometimes you end up keeping what you borrow

Repeat Pre-Chorus

Repeat Chorus


2.The Next Big Thing

The kings of America were falling out of fashion
The system systematically
Was shooting out their lights
Driven to the level of paparazzi comers
They bid the public an ugly goodnight

Well, the shaved and depraved
The concealed and the well-healed
The maintained and the drained
The walking dead and the well-read

All have a stake in the model and the make
Of the latest star attractions

CHORUS

Can you tell us who's the next big thing
Can you tell us who's the next big thing
We know they ain't gonna last
But it's always a blast to devour every second

The girl in the pressure cooker's
Losing her mystique now
The brains at The Star
Say she's dying by degrees
With tales of self abuse
And a criminal citation
Her sun is setting in the Hollywood sea

Well, the ares and the ain'ts
The gratified and the fried
The diseased and the pleased
The endowed and the street crowd

All want a piece of the latest release
To stroke the head of their condition

CHORUS
