1.Mister, Hey Mister
2.Hard Times
Verse 1
Clappin' our hands when we're out on a weekend
Stompin' our feet with the people we believe in
Dogs howling at the moon, holding out for pain
Waitin' for the day they leave their towns and make their names
Chorus
Aint no remedy to recommend
Hard times, in the hearts of young men
Verse 2
Speaking our minds but nobody cares
You know some people got it so good it just aint fair
No money in our pockets so you know we had to make a move
Aww we live tough we die tough but it aint our life to choose
Chorus
Cuz after all we cross and avert them
Hard times in the hearts of young men
In the hearts of young men
Verse 3
The president aint got our cause
He's selling souls and breaking laws
And telling lies for the applause
Well aint no future for our kind
And these are hard times
Verse 4
Me and my kids got a gift for the man
With our souls on fire and our hearts in our hands
A fist in a face of any mouth that will tell us no
Aint to time left for faking you know we gotta go, go, go
Chorus
Before there's no flag left here to defend
Hard times in the hearts of young men
3.Dead Wrong
The time has come for you to look around
Remember every moment that you found
The best way to say yes is to say no
When all you got to do is say it so
But when it's wrong, dead wrong
It's easy just too easy to deny
And never be the one to compromise
When everyone's a friendly face to you
Tell me what you going to do
Cause when it's wrong it's wrong, dead wrong
Did you sell your soul from sleep cause that ain't right
Did you think your peace would last you through the night
Is it worth the time it takes to say hello
Tell me cause I really got to know
Cause when it's wrong it's wrong, dead wrong
4.Everything You're Breathing For
After all your dreams are done and paid for
When there's nowhere left to run and nobody worth staying for
And though I hate to be the one to baer such news
Seems like you're set to be the only one to lose
Little one, how can it be
You hurt yourself but do not see
And everything you're breathing for
Will let you down and leave you sore
I was bound to the bed post
I was doing everything I could to make a change
Caught a sigh of indifference
When a certain feeling struck so strange
While it was my wish to keep you from such pain
I regret to say my efforts were in vain
Little one, how can it be
You hurt yourself but do not see
And everything you're breathing for
Will let you down and leave you sore
(Solo)
You're sad, sad
Can't go without
You do it to yourself
So you can save your doubt
Little one, how can it be
You hurt yourself but do not see
And everything you're breathing for
Gonna let you down and leave you sore
Little one, how can it be
You hurt yourself but do not see
Your friends will hang you out to dry
They'll scrape your knees
And baby make you cry
Everything you're breathing for
Will let you down and leave you sore
Little one, how can it be
You hurt yourself But do not see
5.The Kids
The kids in town don't care about the rules you've been making
They only feel the beating of their hearts
They're all hip to the lives that you've been taking
Where you take them
They'll take their time but they'll take you apart
But tonight the kids ain't alright
The alley cats brace their fists for destruction Lord
For it seems to me that they've been warned
They are the lives of your construction
Where you touch them
Out of your hands their burdens born
But tonight no the kids ain't alright
Tell me what's your fascination
With money greed and all you've done
And when you reach your destination
Will it be worth it all your fun
And tonight no the kids ain't alright
6.When I Was An Orphan
I Can see your face
Call it Breaking me alright
Pretty soon your heart will be gone
You can have the best of me
I'll just take the rest of me
Why are we growing apart
Ripping out the guts
Where there's something to save
Can you take more, take More All I've asked for
Can you Make Sure, Make sure I come After
Passin out your plastic that
Couldn't care, couldn't care
Tell your turn and back that
I'll trade you for no one
When I was an Orphan and you were a crow
I couldn't believe you were sayin it so
I held out my arms like Love for such a laugh
Ohhh I follow forgiveness back to the sun
If you and I were the only ones to stay
Well How is it supposed to be now
I can see the bones of indifference its sickening
Sticking through the side of the fool I became
Another photograph to kiss me in the morning
Now can I call you back you don't treat me the same
Can you fake more, fake more Childish Laughter
Can you make sure, make sure I come after
Lipstick on the glass left to figure out, figure out
Patch your pretty promise it's the gift that you gave
When you were a daughter and I was the sky
I never remembered feelin so bad
You pulled my hair and I smashed your telephone
Ohh your set in your ways
Now change for me
And I said it so clear
Still you didn't agree
You just left it to chance
As if some way its free
And it failed
How is it supposed to be now
Starting a sentence is getting us nowhere
Heart from the hope that you held in your hand
Starting a sentence is getting us nowhere
Heart from the hope that you held in your hand
Take more, take more all I ask for
Can you make sure , make sure I come after
Can you take more, take more all I ask for
Can you make sure , make sure I come after
7.Angry Young Girl
You're so quiet baby but you're so mean.
Sooner or later you'll have to come clean
That you're in love angry young girl
You're so cold, so smart.
I held your hand you soothe my heart cause you're in love angry
young girl
And it won't be long till the sing along and it goes.
You're an eagle.
You're a crow.
Maybe the devil but all I know is you're in love angry young
girl. You're so calm but you're so cruel.
Show me along make me look like a fool cause you're in love
angry young girl.
And it won't be long 'til the sing along it goes.
You're so quiet but you're so mean.
Sooner or later you have to come clean that you're in love angry
young girl.
You're an eagle or a crow.
Maybe the devil but all I know is you're in love angry young
girl.
And it won't be long till the sing along it goes.
8.Carnival Of Crows
Come on people get together
Cause you know the time is coming
The wolves beneath you on the prowl
Are crowded round you shouting something
And it ain't easy to find a friend inside another fascination
But it's much harder to find a lover in another observation
And oh i got that feeling once again
That everything around me is gonna end
So who was watching when their soured souls
Came marching right down through here
And made believe they were a carnival of crows
Without any fear
Threw their glasses to the floor
Free of consequences for cowards
And kicked up their final daisy
Far before their final hour
Now everybody gather round me
For another story to tell
The angry clouds on the horizon
Seas around you starting to swell
Thunder's going to have to crash
And the rain is going to fall
And then the first will be the last
Can you hear the children call, I know you can
9.Real Hard Headed
In the time I chased the wolves I was a juvenile baby
I cut my nine on any friend or foe
I took my chance on rumor's dance and ruined them lady
I mash them down wherever they may roam
Cause I'm rude and real hard headed
My clan is tough my face is rough from weather and booze
My game is stiff so you know I never lose
The women call and when they do I comfort them
I love so long no creature could contend
Cause I'm rude and real hard headed
Pray to God for forgiveness
For all that I have done
Pray to Mary for mercy
That I may not run
The handman's noose is falling
In the crisp autumn air
See them sway from the gallows baby
As my soul did prepare
Cause I'm rude and real hard headed
10.Tide Of Tears
Safe in the arms that hold your every move
They've been waiting here for you
You've been weighing down the time.
And in a place they're trying to forget
And in a face they grow to regret
They pull down
They pull down the shades.
Crawling
Oh, they're crawling.
Can you save them, now they're crawling？
Will you catch them if they're falling？
Do you hear them when they're calling？
And the water down here
Swells with the seeds of decay
Through the years.
And the sins of our fathers
Swept our love for each other away
In the tide
In the tide
In the tide of tears.
Snakes in suits conduct their interviews
Bodies floating down the avenue
And it's our sickness,
And it's our sickness to blame.
Ain't no party blue or red
Where innocence for naught is she'd
And it's our choices
And it's our voices to be heard
Drowning
Oh, they're drowning
And the good Lord is frowning,
And the dark clouds are surrounding,
We must decide.
And the water down here
Swells with the seeds of decay
Through the years.
And the sins of our fathers
Swept our love for each other away
In the tide
In the tide
In the tide of tears, now
Tide of tears, now
In the tide
In the tide
Oh yeah.
While in this life there's hope for change
And as a culture now got to rearrange,
Ain't no blind eye left to turn.
Lying
Oh, they're lying
And the children keep dying
And the mothers are crying
Don't you know we should be trying.
And the water down here
Swells with the seeds of decay
Through the years.
And the sins of our fathers
Swept our love, our love away.
In the tide
In the tide
In the tide
In the tide of tears.
11.My Favorite Heart To Break
I can not cut this fairy tale,
And treat you how I please.
Thank you for the fun of it
And leave you on your knees
Tear your little heart out
Where everyone can see
Place it right beside you
And ask you not to bleed
And how could I care for
Not to leave you temporary
Hangouts got me feeling for no one
And oh how I let you down
I could count your tears
Just to stay around
My favorite heart to break
Feel to fret to bravery, don't you call my quite
Push it down a stair case
Cause what else would be right
Kiss you on your forehead
And hold your pretty hand
Leave you for the moment
I know where you stand
And how could I ask for
Taking me so seriously
And I can see you'll be waiting for hours
And oh how I let you down
I could count your tears
Just to stay around
My favorite heart to break
My favorite heart to break
Miss is so sad
And I can tell you I need everything
You hoped I would as well
Turn it around and I can see, I can see
With everything shake of your breath you believed
And oh how I let you down
I could count your tears
Just to stay around
My favorite heart to break
My favorite heart to break

13.Can't Keep No Good Boy Down
I been thinking for a while now,
How you had me still.
Playing with my mind, now darling,
Hope you got your fill.
'Cause this train is leaving,
It's rolling down the track.
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back.'
Now a simple man, it's true.
Givin' all I had to you.
Really don't leave much for me,
Sorry Woman, I had to let you be.
'Cause this train is leaving,
It's rolling down the track.
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back.'
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back.'
One day you're going to realize
I ain't the one to blame.
I see how you critisize and curse
my very name,
now baby that's alright.
'Cause I got better things to do than be your whipped boy,
So you can say what you want
(？？？)
brings no tougher joy back in your whole life.
'Cause it don't matter what I do,
There just ain't no pleasing you.
Just say it how you mean it.
Just tell us how you feel.
Whoa, just say it how you mean it,
Just tell us...
Hope one day you'll find a man that
Can keep you satisfied,
Have yourself a mess of kids
And a real comfortable life
This train is leaving,
It's rolling downt the track,
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back'.
Still I really wish you well,
'Spite of all the lies you tell.
Can't Keep No Good Boy Down,
Woman when you gonna look around.
This train is leaving,
It's rolling down the track,
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back'.
This train is leaving,
It's rolling down the track,
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back'.
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back'.
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back'.
Singing 'Ain't no turnin' back'.
