1.Bastards Of Young
God, what a mess, on the ladder of success
Where you take one step and miss the whole first rung
Dreams unfulfilled, graduate unskilled
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
The daughters and the sons
Clean your baby womb, trash that baby boom
Elvis in the ground, there'll ain't no beer tonight
Income tax deduction, what a hell of a function
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
The daughters and the sons
Unwillingness to claim us, ya got no word (war？) to name us
The ones who love us best are the ones we'll lay to rest
And visit their graves on holidays at best
The ones who love us least are the ones we'll die to please
If it's any consolation, i don't begin to understand them
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young
The daughters and the sons
Young...take it, it's yours...
2.Dose Of Thunder
Goin' down t' the pool hall
Lookin' for the eight ball
When it comes, when it comes
Only want a little, you need a ton
Gimme one good dose of thunder
Gimme one good dose of thunder
Gimme gimme in a hurry
Texas added to missouri
When it comes, when it comes
Only takes a little 'til you want a ton
One good dose of thunder
Gimme one good dose of thunder
I can feel it start to rumble
(mumble)
(mumble)
When it comes, when it comes
It only takes a little 'til you need a ton
Gimme one good dose of thunder
Gimme one good dose of thunder
And i can feel it
Gimme one good dose of thunder
Gimme one good dose of thunder
I can feel it start to rumble
3.Here Comes A Regular
Well a person can work up a mean mean thirst
After a hard day of nothin' much at all
Summer's passed, it's too late to cut the grass
There ain't much to rake anyway in the fall
And sometimes i just ain't in the mood
To take my place in back with the loudmouths
You're like a picture on the fridge that's never stocked with
food
I used to live at home, now i stay at the house
And everybody wants to be special here
They call your name out loud and clear
Here comes a regular
Call out your name
Here comes a regular
Am i the only one here today？
Well a drinkin' buddy that's bound to another town
Once the police made you go away
And even if you're in the arms of someone's baby now
I'll take a great big whiskey to ya anyway
Everybody wants to be someone's here
Someone's gonna show up, never fear
'cause here comes a regular
Call out your name
Here comes a regular
Am i the only one who feels ashamed？
Kneeling alongside old sad eyes
He says opportunity knocks once then the door slams shut
All i know is i'm sick of everything that my money can buy
The fool who wastes his life, god rest his guts
First the lights, then the collar goes up, and the wind begins
to blow
Turn your back on a pay-you-back, last call
First the glass, then the leaves that pass, then comes the snow
Ain't much to rake anyway in the fall
4.Hold My Life
Down on all fives
Let me crawl
If i want, i could dye...my hair
Time for decisions to be made
Crack up in the sun, lose it in the shade
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, drone, time for this one to come home
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, die, time for this one to come alive
And hold my life until i'm ready to use it
Hold my life because i just might lose it
Because i just might lose it
Well, well, well, anyone could tell, pass it off, a lucky shot
Ooh, they do hate 'em, someday soon, face em
Time for decisions to be made
Crack up in the sun, lose it in the shade
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, drone, time for this one to come home
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, die, time for this one to come alive
And hold my life until i'm ready to use it
Hold my life because i just might lose it
Because i just might lose it
Just might, just might, just might
We might crack up in the sun, or we'll lose it in the shade
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, drone, time for this one to come home
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, die, time for this one to come alive
Hold my life until i'm ready to use it
Hold my life because i just might lose it
Because i just might lose it
I want you to hold my life
Get ready to hold my life
Hold my, hold my, hold my, hold my...
5.I'll Buy
Cruisin' in the sunshine, 80 up here today (ain't yet been to
bed？)
I could hear the motor whistlin', something's off the wall again
Give my regards to broadway, tell 'em i got change to spare
One big buck, gonna have to suck up here
Anything you want, dear, is fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
Everything you say, dear, i'll buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy,
goodbye
Talkin' about some pictures, now wouldn't that be a scream
Movies are for retards like me and maybelline
Give my regards to boston, ask 'em who'll buy the beer
Don't wanna get pop, find yourself a rockin' chair
Anything you want, dear, is fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
Everything you say, dear, i'll buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy
Never get passed the dice dear, goddammit, i'm gonna roll
People that pick your nose clean, so what we owe, owe, owe
Give my regards to broadway, tell 'em i don't really care
If you want a good joke, why split？ you'll go broke right here
Anything you want, dear, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
Everything you say, dear, i'll buy, buy, buy, buy, buy
Anything you want, dear, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
Everything you say, dear, i'll buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy,
i'll buy
6.Kiss Me On The Bus
On the bus, that's where we're ridin'
On the bus, o.k., don't say hi, then
Your tongue, your transfer,
Your hand, your answer
On the bus, everyone's lookin' forward
On the bus, i am lookin' forward
And everything ain't o.k.
I might die before monday
They're all watchin' us
Kiss me on the bus
Kiss me on the bus
If you knew how i felt now
You wouldn't act so adult now
Hurry, hurry, here comes my stop
On the bus, watch our reflection
On the bus, i can't stand no rejection
C'mon, let's make a scene
Oh, baby, don't be so mean
They're all watchin' us
Kiss me on the bus
Kiss me on the bus
If you knew how i felt now
You wouldn't act so adult now
Hurry, hurry, here comes my stop
If you knew how i felt now
You wouldn't act so adult now
They're all watchin' us
Kiss me on the bus
Kiss me on the bus
Kiss me on the bus
Kiss me on the bus
7.Lay It Down Clown
Got a big switchblade, drop drop bill a tease
There's a deal goin' down, it don't go down around me
Rumors keep on spreadin' all over town
Lay it down clown, lay it down
Lay it down clown, lay it down
Spirit is willing and you think you got what it takes
The only exercise you ever get is the shakes
Rumors keep on spreadin' all over town
Lay it down clown, lay it down
Lay it down clown, lay it down
Get back to the hills, get back to back where you belong
Finally found out which way the wind blows
The rumors keep on spreadin' all over town
Lay it down clown, lay it down
Lay it down clown, lay it down
Lay it down clown, lay it down
Lay it down clown, lay it down
8.Left Of The Dial
Read about your band in some local page
Didn't mention your name, didn't mention your name
Sweet georgia breezes, safe, cool and warm
I headed up north, you headed north
On and on and on and on
What side are you on？
On and on and on and on
What side are you on？
Weary voice that's laughin', on the radio once
We sounded drunk, never made it on
Passin' through and it's late, the station started to fade
Picked another one up in the very next state
On and on and on and on
What side are you on？
On and on and on and on and...
Pretty girl keep growin' up, playin' make-up, wearin' guitar
Growin' old in a bar, ya grow old in a bar
Headed out to san francisco, definitely not l.a.
Didn't mention your name, didn't mention your name
And if i don't see ya, in a long, long while
I'll try to find you
Left of the dial
9.Little Mascara
You and i fall together
You and i sleep alone
After all, things might be better
After 1, and there's one that's long gone
For the moon you keep shootin'
Throw your rope up in the air
For the kids you stay together
You nap 'em and you slap 'em in a highchair
All you ever wanted was someone to take care of ya
All you're ever losin' is a little mascara
Afternoon, things are quiet
Settle back now if you can
Stations clip by like a rocket
Don't you worry if you wonder why he ran
All you ever wanted was someone to take care of ya
All you're ever losin' is a little mascara
That you cry (3x)
Your eyes out
All you ever wanted was someone ma'd be scared of
All your ever losin' is
A little mascara
That you cry
10.Swingin' Party
Bring your own lampshade, somewhere there's a party
Here it's never endin', can't remember when it started
Pass around the lampshade, there'll be plenty enough room in
jail
If bein' wrong's a crime, i'm serving forever
If bein' strong's your kind, then i need help here with this
feather
If bein' afraid is a crime, we hang side by side
At the swingin' party down the line
At the swingin' party down the line
Pound the prairie pavement, losin' proposition
Quittin' school and goin' to work and never goin' fishin'
Water all around, never learned how to swim now
If bein' wrong's a crime, i'm serving forever
If bein' strong's your kind, then i need help here with this
feather
If bein' afraid is a crime, we hang side by side
At the swingin' party down the line
At the swingin' party down the line
Bring your own lampshade, somewhere there's a party
Here it's never endin', can't remember when it started
Pass around the lampshade, there'll be plenty enough room in
jail
If bein' wrong's a crime, i'm serving forever
If bein' strong is what you want, then i need help here with
this feather
If bein' afraid is a crime, we hang side by side
At the swingin' party down the line
Catch you down at the swingin' party down the line
11.Waitress In The Sky
She don't wear no pants and she don't wear no tie
Always on the ball, she's always on strike
Struttin' up the aisle, big deal, you get to fly
You ain't nothin' but a waitress in the sky
You ain't nothin' but a waitress in the sky
Paid my fare, don't wanna complain
You get to me, you're always outta champagne
Treat me like a bum, don't wear no tie
'cause you ain't nothin' but a waitress in the sky
You ain't nothin' but a waitress in the sky
And the sign says, 'thank you very much for not smoking'
My own sign says, 'i'm sorry, i'm smokin''
Don't treat me special, don't kiss my ass
Treat me like the way they treat 'em up in first class
Sanitation expert and a maintenance engineer
Garbage man, a janitor and you my dear
A real union flight attendant, my oh my
You ain't nothin' but a waitress in the sky
You ain't nothin' but a waitress in the sky
You ain't nothin' but a waitress in the sky
