Someone sucked me
late last evening
And it was time to make a change
And i Wonder
am i too late
am i too far a strange
For what i have been doin for all of these years
Sleepwalkin' Sleepwalkin' Slee-ee-eepwalkin'
Sleepwalkin' Sleepwalkin' Slee-ee-eepwalkin'
I have so few good memories
somethings terably wrong
As a singer singing badly
As he tries to sing the wrong song
Look what i have been doing all of these years
Sleepwalkin' Sleepwalkin' Slee-ee-eepwalkin'
Sleepwalkin' Sleepwalkin' Slee-ee-eepwalkin'
Something moving in the light
Something spoke to me and said 'go, go, go, go'
Something's moving in the house show
Something to show
For what ive been doing for all of these years
Sleepwalkin' Sleepwalkin' Slee-ee-eepwalkin'
Sleepwalkin' Sleepwalkin' Slee-ee-eepwalkin'
Someone sucked me
late last evening
And it was time to make a change
And i Wonder
am i too late
am i too far a strange
For what i have been doin for all of these years

2.A Story
I got a story
A sad sad story
About a girl
Who met a boy
About her mother
Whose vision saw her
Daughter to marry
Another boy
(Nooo nooo nooo...)
They made a plan
To get away
To run away
And though it be hard
To make that day
Freely to live
Without the mother
They'd send a postcard
(Nooo nooo nooo...)
Out on the interstate
That's where they made their mistake
That's where they met their fate
Out on the interstate
They met a monster
The monster of the interstate
Who will not hesitate
Who eats teenagers
Like a shark eats little fishes
Who eats bad kids disobeying parents wishes
An interloper against the elopers
A troll at the pay toll
They stopped at the toll booth
And reached for a quarter
The monster filled the whole booth
He gave them no quarter
'Don't eat me'
Chirped the girl
Clutching to her purse
'Don't eat me'
Croaked the boy
'Or eat her first
I'll turn right around
And take her back to her mother's
We repent of being out of wedlock lovers'
'You should have thought of that before'
And a scaly horny hand
Ripped the car lock door
And the boy
Tried to drive
But oh boy
He was eaten alive
And the girl
Tried to scream
But she was swirled
In the giant's vanilla ice cream
And the boy was yummy
And the girl was yummy
As they slid down the throat
To the monster's yellow tummy
He said：
'Hmm hmm good
Didn't do like they should
Hmm hmm good
Didn't do like they should'
The mother sold the
Rights to the story
It was so scary
This gory story
They made a movie
A horror movie
The mother made a million
And the producers made a billion
'And that other sweet boy
That my daughter has shunned
Now I'm his wife and he's my husband'
The moral of this story
Is clear for all to see
And if clearly all can see
Then it isn't clear to me
3.World Without Mercy
When your words have no meaning
And you're known as no one,
Am I someone to you,
Someone to turn to,
Even when others turn away？
Even though others turn away？
When history blurs,
And every man, women, and child,
Are left outside with no phones to be dialed,
You can't call me, I can't you.
You can't call me, I can't you.
In a world without mercy,
People dine outside your door.
In a world without mercy,
You don't have to lie anymore.
You don't have to cry anymore.
When laughter loses all it's humor
And the joke is on you,
Don't take it so personal,
All this world reversal.
The things they said don't matter anyway.
The things they said don't matter anyway.
In a world without mercy,
People dine outside your door.
In a world without mercy,
You don't have to lie anymore.
You don't have to cry anymore.
Oh, can it be so painful？
Can it be so blind？
Love is vicious angel,
Fluttering wings, trapped inside your mind.
When your words have no meaning
And you're known as no one,
Am I someone to you,
Someone to turn to,
Even when others turn away？
4.Digeriblues
Once I knew a dude who blew the didgeridoo.
He knew a girl who he decided to woo to
under her balcony with a didgeridoo
and did she know you would do the digeridoo too,
if you knew she'd do, do the didgeridoo.
Then a baby came one day
and daddy would stay by the cradle to lay.
Cooche, cooche, coo.
Cooche, cooche, coo.
on his trusty didgeridoo.
and did she know you who do the digeridoo too,
if you knew she'd do, do the didgeridoo.
When A ＆ R man heard that rumble,
he signed him up man, quiet little bundle.
Made a record in L. A.
where I here the people still will say,
damn, that cat, he really moved.
He knew what to do on the didgeridoo.
Now all over the world this song debuts,
its hitting the charts,
all number ones and number two's.
This song has swept the nations.
The didgeridooblues.
If that you would love it too,
if you could do the didgeridoo.
Now, if that she would love you too,
if she knew you could do the didgeridoo.
if she knew you could do the didgeridoo.
if she knew you who blew the didgeridoo.
5.Love ＆ Me Make Three
Where were you
When Judas needed a band
Sitting in the backseat
With another woman in your hand
Don't look this way
With your changing point of view
Just sit on a fence
And pretend to be you
Christ is crying
Outside your church door
Don't let him in
He'll get mud on your floor
Just put on your apron
And count up all the money
Don't you smell the burning
And you just think it's funny
You love yourself
You love yourself
Have we become what we wanted？
You go ahead, I'll love myself more
You're a man
Who works for the Lord
Polishing the statues
When their faces look worn
The best of times
And the worst of men
Don't seem to affect you
You're asleep again
You love yourself
You love yourself
Have we become what we wanted？
You go ahead, I'll love myself more
6.Blister In The Sun (demo)
Lyricist：Gordon Gano
When I'ma walkin' I strut my stuff, man, I'm so strung out
I'm high as a kite, I just might stop to check you out
Let me go on like I blister in the sun
Let me go on, big hands, I know you're the one
Body and beats, I stain my sheets, I don't even know why
My girlfriend, she's at the end, she is starting to cry
Let me go on like I blister in the sun
Let me go on, big hands, I know you're the one
When I'ma walkin' I strut my stuff, man, I'm so strung out
I'm high as a kite, I just might stop to check you out
When I'ma walkin' I strut my stuff, man, I'm so strung out
I'm high as a kite, I just might stop to check you out
Body and beats, I stain my sheets, I don't even know why
My girlfriend, she's at the end, she is starting to cry
When I'ma walkin' I strut my stuff, man, I'm so strung out
I'm high as a kite, I just might stop to check you out
Let me go on like I blister in the sun
Let me go on, big hands, I know you're the one
7.I Swear It (I Can Change)
Lyricist：Gordon James Gano, Randolph S Parker
Some people say that I'm a bad guy
They may be right, they may be wrong
But it's not as if I don't try
I just mess up and I go wrong
But I can change, I can change
I can learn to keep my promises, I swear it
Open up my heart and I will tear it
Any minute now, I swear, I'll share it
Oh it's strange, yes, it's strange
Though I guess it's quite clear
I killed the antelope, the deer
And there's no home on my range
Yes, I'm a little de-arranged but I can change
It's not my fault that I'm so evil
It's society, sobriety
You know my momma picked cotton
And my daddy, boll weevil
It was history, it wasn't me
But I can change, I can change
I can learn to keep my promises, I know it
Open up my heart and I will show it
Any minute passed 'til I outgrow it
You'll never change, you'll never change
You'll always be a dog with me
Yes, but don't be such a boob
Manna from Heaven shall be my food
My acts of past were misconstrued
And God above will watch me change
And while I'm changing, I'll be changing, while I change
Soon
But I can change, I can change
I can learn to keep my promises, I swear it
Open up my heart and I will tear it
Any minute now, I swear, I'll share it
I'm gonna change
8.Country Death Song (Live, 1998)
Lyricist：Gordon Gano
I had me a wife, I had me some daughters
I tried so hard, I never knew still waters
Nothing to eat and nothing to drink
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think
Well, I'm a thinkin' and thinkin', 'til there's nothin' I ain't
thunk
Breathing in the stink, 'til finally I stunk
It was at that time, I swear I lost my mind
Started making plans to kill my own kind
Started making plans to kill my own kind
Come little daughter, I said the youngest one
Put your coat on, we'll have some fun
We'll go out to mountains, the one to explore
Her face then lit up, I was standing by the door
Her face then lit up, I was standing by the door
Come little daughter, I will carry the lanterns
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caverns
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caves
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves
A led her to a hole, a deep black well
I said, make a wish, make sure and not tell
And close you're eyes dear, and count to seven
You know your papa loves you, good children go to heaven
You know your papa loves you, good children go to heaven
I gave her a push, I gave her a shove
I pushed with all my might, I pushed with all my love
I threw my child into a bottomless pit
Screaming as she fell but I never heard her hit
She was screaming as she fell but I never heard her hit
Gather 'round boys to the tale that I tell
You wanna know how to take a short trip to hell？
It's guaranteed to get your own place in hell
Just take your lovely daughter and push her in the well
Take your lovely daughter and throw her in the well
Don't speak to me of lovers with a broken heart
You wanna know what will really tear you apart？
I'm going out to the barn with a never stoppin' pain
I'm going out to the barn to hang myself in shame
Lyricist：Gordon Gano
I had me a wife, I had me some daughters
I tried so hard, I never knew still waters
Nothing to eat and nothing to drink
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think
Well, I'm thinkin' and thinkin', 'til there's nothin' I ain't
thunk
Breathing in the stink 'til finally I stunk
As at that time I swear I lost my mind
Started making plans to kill my own kind
Started making plans to kill my own kind
â½Come little daughter', I said to youngest one
Put your coat on, we'll have some fun
Go out to mountains, the one to explore
Her face then lit up, I was standing by the door
Her face then lit up, I was standing by the door
Come little daughter, I will carry the lanterns
Go out tonight, we'll go to the caverns
Go out tonight, we'll go to the caves
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves
A led her to a hole, a deep black well
I said, â½Make a wish, make sure and not tell
And close your eyes dear and count to sevenâ
You know your papa loves you, good children go to Heaven
You know your papa loves you, good children go to Heaven
I gave her a push, I gave her a shove
I pushed with all my might, I pushed with all my love
I threw my child into a bottomless pit
She was screaming as she fell but I never heard her hit
She was screaming as she fell but I never heard her hit
Gather round boys to this tale that I tell
You wanna know how to take a short trip to hell？
It's guaranteed to get your own place in hell
Take your lovely daughter and push her in the well
Take your lovely daughter and throw her in the well
Don't speak to me of lovers, with a broken heart
You wanna know what really tear you apart？
I'm going out to the barn, with a never stoppin' pain
I'm going out to the barn, to hang myself in shame

Beautiful girl, lovely dress
High school smiles, oh yes
Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Where she is now, I can only guess
'Cause it's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone away
When I see you
Eyes will turn blue
When I see you
Thousand eyes turnin' blue
'Cause it's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone away
I tell by the way that you switch and walk
I see by the way that you baby talk
I can know by the way you treat your man
I can love you baby 'til it's cryin
'Cause it's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Fifteen smiles, oh yes
Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Where she is now I can only guess
'Cause it's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
Your love is gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
