1.B.C.
I remember a time way back in late December
When I noticed all I wanted was you.
It's been far too long now baby
I'm serving time thinkin' bout the things we used to do.
In the midst of it all
I gotta say I'm feeling faded
In the morning I won't feel the same.
If you can hear me Mrs. Robinson
Please don't pre-judge a single one
Before you even learn my last name.
Is it a terrible thing？
Yeah, the thing I bring
Every time I walk into the room.
Fitted Levi's and boots or three-button suits
and rebel music that comes from the Sixties.
There's a girl right now and she's lying in bed,
Wishin' that she wasn't at home.
Daddy think that I'm bad and Mom's sure glad
That I won't be callin' her when she gets home.
My friends say, 'Zach it's gonna be alright,
there's no need to get all upset.'
But my baby's in her room all afternoon
and her parents won't get off of her back.
There's a little kid in me
that doesn't want to be
another broken-hearted day.
Sometimes you can choose,
but, kid, you're gonna lose.
And I've been losin' all week.
P.S.
That's what I say at night
When I call you on the telephone
Ask if you had a good time.
Sometimes you say no, but baby？
2.Cleveland, Ohio
I don't wanna stay here, I don't wanna stay
I'd rather be on the road with my band, makin' our way
Well it's been seven days and six shows
Before we got the shaft down in Cleveland, Ohio
Losing lots of money and we're losing our minds
We better get to the next show in plenty of time
On the road so long and the noise so loud
I'm missing all my friends that made me feel so proud
(chorus)
Cleveland, Ohio
Well I been through states and this is one hell of a town
I'll stay awhile, while the drinks are free and that's good
enough for me
I really wanna play here, I wanna play this here guitar
You know I really want to stay here, I wanna show you what I'm
all about
I want to rock and roll and drink 'til the break of dawn
I didn't drive a thousand miles to sulk and have no fun
Fuck that hotel room, I'll break the TV
We came here for music and when we get it, we're gonna leave
(chorus)
3.Handkerchief
Making you wish we never met
Won't solve a goddamn thing I know.
I've got this lump in my throat
It's tearing me up like draino.
Inhale you like gasoline.
Feel my strength dissipating.
Hold you inside of me,
'Til I am suffocating.
(chorus)
And it beats waving a handkerchief
Goodbye, Goodbye
To a fuzzy face on a moving ship
New Guy, New Guy
These ties of ours,
They're supposed to blind me
to paper kites and bedposts,
not mistakes I left behind me.
There's nothing right now
as tenuous as my kite string,
nothing as precarioius
as looking down on you when I am flying.
(chorus)
4.Manuhkin
I know you've never seen me cry
Would it bug you to know I do it every day？
Locusts of carnal knowledge
Immortal in my scrawlings
Rendered impotent, bored, and impassionate
You cannot say I am not hacking it
It's funny for me, here on the bottom
With imaginairy women who don't care if I love 'em
Ecstatic visions make believers
Make believers see
A mannequin on top of me
Identity to be filled in
Really now you are right here
I keep this up, you win, I win
From how close you hover over me
Razor blades could not come between
All my girls are paper thin
Aborrations of a magazine
Aborrations of infidelity
A mannequin on top of me
Identity to be filled in
Really now you are right here
I keep this up, you win, I win
Veronica Lake is on top of me
It's really you but I have to have a fantasy
Where I've a weekend holdup
With someone a bit more grownup
Close my eyes and I can see
Some movie star on top of me
It's funny for me here on the bottom
With imaginairy women who don't care if I love 'em
Ecstatic visions make believers
Make believers see
A mannequin on top of me
Identity to be filled in
Really now you are right here
I keep this up, you win, I win
5.Outsider
You've got the father who can get everything
and being in possession and being envied makes you
feel like you're feeling something.
How am I just a merchant you can
steal from without regret？
Know that you are not forgotten.
Know that this merchant prosecutes.
Know that empty tables and full hearts are fine for
beggars and prostitutes.
Who is the outsider？
Sunglasses cause the world got brighter.
The day we stepped out of school.
I wanna be you, I want to grow up faster.
Nineteen my unfeeling mistress, the pimp
circumstance, a cruel bastard.
I wanna be a man and you can be a woman.
Can you dig from where I'm comin'？
I really hope you can.
Oblivious to the drift apart.
Never feel so slowly broken hearts.
Better off without the gang anyway.
Some of us die and some just move away.
6.Wise Up
I'll sit forever if it takes you that long
To realize that we might be all wrong
I'll never say what you've suspected all along
I'm the part of you that does not belong
When you wise up, I'm out the door
You can't live this lie anymore
I've seen you around with some other guy
Suspecting vaguely that you're going all the way
I'd die if I saw his car outside your place
Whoever I'm with from now on I'll look upon and see your face
People cry all the time
Hell, I do it every night
How can you ask me what makes these
