Ugly Kid Joe Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Cats In The Craddle

Verse 1
My child arrived just the other day
Came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away
He was talkin' 'fore I knew it
And as he grew he said,
'I'm gonna be like you, Dad,
You know I'm gonna be like you.'


Chorus
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little boy blue and the man 'n the moon.
'When you comin' home?'
'Son, I don't know when. We'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then.'


Verse 2
Well, my son turned ten just the other day.
He said, 'Thanks for the ball, Dad. Come on, let's play.
Could you teach me to throw?'
I said, 'Not today. I got a lot to do.'
He said, 'That's okay.' And he walked away and he smiled and he
said,
'You know, I'm gonna be like him, yeah.
You know I'm gonna be like him.'

Chorus

Verse 3
Well, he came from college just the other day,
So much like a man I just had to say,
'I'm proud of you. Could you sit for a while?'
He shook his head and he said with a smile,
'What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys.
See you later. Can I have them please ?'

Chorus

Verse 4
I've long since retired, my son's moved away.
I called him up just the other day.
'I'd like to see you, if you don't mind.'
He said, 'I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time.
You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu,
But it's sure nice talkin' to you, Dad.
It's been sure nice talkin' to you.'
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me,
He'd grown up just like me.
My boy was just like me.

Chorus


2.Madman

Disneyland is the place to be, c'mon baby, just you and me
Hand in hand, to Disneyland, we go ! Not slow
Happiest place, in the world until a madman grabs a girl;
Hand in hand, with the madman she goes ! Oh oh !

Knife gleamin' no feelin's, axe wieldin', child stealin'
madman is loose... in Disneyland. (in Disneyland)

Come here little girl if you wanna see, Peter Pan's Magic
Flight on L.S.D.
Up and down, all around, we go ! Whoa oh !

Knife gleamin' no feelin's, axe wieldin', child stealin'
madman is loose... in Disneyland. (in Disneyland)

Madman is loose in Disneyland, he's back here by popular de-
mand
Madman is loose in Disneyland, he'll take no shit but he'll
take your head!

Surprise, Surprise, I'm comin' at ya' live
I sure as hell ain't Mickey Mouse, I'm a killer in disguise
You can run and you can hide
But you ain't gettin' away 'cause I got you in my sight

Axe wieldin', child stealin'
I'm a mad motherfuckin' man and I'm loose!... in disneyland!

have you heard the news, madman sure is loose
Got you by the noose, have his way with you
Nothin' you can do, headlines in the news
Madman sure is loose, in Disneyland

Disneyland is the place to be, in California, by the sea
Sunny day, well A.O.K., for now, and how

Knife gleamin' no feelin's, axe wieldin', child stealin'
madman is loose... in Disneyland. (in Disneyland)


3.Whiplash Liquor

Suburban white alcoholic trash
We ain't glam and we ain't trash
We're victims of a society
That fucks with me about sobriety

They say don't drink this and don't drink that
'cause it does a little more than just make you fat
It's a serious disease that you learn about in school
And if your dad's an alcoholic you'll be one too

Mom and dad don't have a clue
The one-fifty-one is now eighty proof
And all the times I borrowed the car
Not as a ride but as a shitface bar

Fuck yeah! I got the venom in my veins
God damn! This shit is drivin' me insane
Boo ya! I ain't ever gonna be the same
Whiplash liquor, sure is quicker
Makes you sicker, it's the best!

Weekend comes and my parents are gone
It's time to party once I mow the lawn
Havin' fun ain't that a fact
It's rock 'n' roll in the cul-de-sac!

Invite everyone and your neighbors too
It's gonna be a whacked out rock 'n' roll zoo
But don't be blabbin' it around my mother
But invite everyone and your skate rat brother

Fuck yeah! I got the venom in my veins
God damn! This shit is drivin' me insane
Boo ya! I ain't ever gonna be the same
Whiplash liquor, sure is quicker
Makes you sicker, it's the best!


4.Too Bad

Lyricist:Whitfield Crane, Eric Phillips

Too many times I've seen your kind
Washed upon the shore
Too many times you locked me out
Johnny knockin', knocking at your door

You're looking past the mirror
Yes, you've reached the other side
You're striving for the pinnacle
But you're holding on too tight

And when you hold the ticket
For your one way ride
You wonder where you're going
And you can't hide

Too bad, too bad, Johnny
What you gonna do?
Too bad, too bad, Johnny
Now your time is through

So many highs and lows right now
What are we to do
You know we're trying so damn hard
Johnny just to try and talk to you

You're swimming in an ocean
It's so black and cold
I feel you got the notion
And it's eating at your soul

And when you hold the ticket
For your one way ride
You wonder where you're going
And you can't hide

Too bad, too bad, Johnny
What you gonna do?
Too bad, too bad, Johnny
Now your time is through

She said, she knew the answer
He was falling, falling faster
Round and round and round, no where to go
Someone had to help the boy

He said no, no, no
So many mixed emotions
And they're driving you insane
A grip on some reality

Silence quiet on your window pain
You're looking past the mirror
Yes, you've reached the other side
You're striving for the pinnacle
But you're holding on too tight


5.Funky Fresh Country Club

Lyricist:Whitfield Crane, Eric Phillips

Funky fresh tunes and you're walking down the street
Trying to find the girl that you really want to meet
You're flying past the reef and you're drinking shrunken heads
You wake up in the morning and you wish that you were dead

As you stagger home in the blackest form of night
The rollers out in force baby they're looking for a fight
You try to play the game, you try to pass the test
But the only thing in sight baby, is the sight of your arrest

Jail cell, living hell
Chains off me I'm free
Doing time, one more time
Mine, all mine, all mine

Now the country club is cold and the country club is mean
The attendants at the country club ain't something to be seen
If you're messing with my girl you're messing with your life
'Cause I'm gonna cut you with a big, big, big, big, big, big,
big knife
You bet your fuckin' life

As you stagger home in the blackest form of night
The rollers out in force baby they're looking for a fight
You try to play the game, you try to pass the test
But the only thing in sight baby, is the sight of your arrest

Jail cell, living hell
Chains off me I'm free
Doing time one more time
Mine, all mine, all mine

Jail cell, living hell
Chains off me I'm free
Doing time one more time
Mine, all mine, all mine


I wanna tell you a story people
I hope you wanna hear
I wanna tell you a story people
I hope you wanna hear

I was going downtown in the back of a car
Some mothafucka left the door ajar, uh, huh
Remember what your parents said
Be home by eight and in your bed, uh, huh

But as you stagger home in the blackest form of night
The rollers out in force baby they're looking for a fight
You try to play the game, you try to pass the test
But the only thing in sight baby, is the sight of your arrest

Jail cell, living hell
Chains off me I'm free
Doing time one more time
Mine, all mine, all mine

Jail cell, living hell
Chains off me I'm free
Doing time baby, one more time
Mine, all mine, all mine

Jail cell, living hell
I've got to get out

7.Edelweiss

Edelweiss

Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white, clean and bright
You look happy to meet me

Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever

Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever


8.So Long, Farewell

So Long, Farewell

Children:
There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple too
And up in the nursery an absurd little bird
Is popping out to say 'cuckoo'
Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:
Cuckoo, cuckoo

Children: Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:
Regretfully they tell us Cuckoo, cuckoo
But firmly they compel us Cuckoo, cuckoo
To say goodbye . . .
Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:
Cuckoo!
Children:
. . . to you

Children:
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night
Marta:
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight

Children:
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu
Friedrich:
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu

Children:
So long, farewell, au revoir, auf wiedersehen
Liesl:
I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne

Children:
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
Kurt:
I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye -- Goodbye!
Brigitta:
I'm glad to go, I cannot tell a lie
Louisa:
I flit, I float, I fleetly flee, I fly
Gretl:
The sun has gone to bed and so must I

Children:
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Guests:
Goodbye!
