1.Soundcheck
I always thought of music as more than words and sound,
something more like inspiration that picks you off the ground,
when your down...
And I, know that music will pull me through.
So it's a soundcheck to an empty room.
2.24 Hours In Paramus
Man this town will drive you insane
Check my thoughts to check my brain
Hold my wallet like it's glued
In one square block it'll tell you
What it thinks of you
And there's nothing you can do
And all that's left to say
And all that's left to say, now
Is feet don't fail me now
Man I must be out of my mind
This town can be so unkind
Forget about sleep there's nothing you can do
In 24 hours this town has become a living #$!!
And there's nothing you can do
10-9-8 forty ounces fill this place
7-6-5 then watch the bullets to stay alive
4-3-2 no one way out of this
It's been 24 hours in paramus
3.Whipping Boy
The world keeps on spinning.
Inside his head keeps on spinning.
Wishing he could be on top for once,
seems he hasn't spoke a word in months.
It's the complications that make him lazy
and it's the frustrations that make him so lazy.
He's the whipping boy.
4.Time And A Half
It was a cold december on 2nd ave and 6th st.
Too cold to think about anybody passing me
When I overheard 'I'm gonna tell you straight from the
shoulder...
Boy... You better get running'
On the corner of 2nd and 6th and outta time,
With a cough, feeling lost and a bottle of cheap wine.
Just then I realized that I can't seem to understand
When I saw that guy heading for the dopeman.
It's just the same old story on the same old street
And it's just another worn down, worn out casualty
Of 2nd ave and 6th st.
On the corner of 2nd and 6th and feeling down
When I overheard 'I'm gonna take a gun and take you out'
Just then I realized that I can't seem to understand
How anyone can take the life of another man.
It's just the same old story on the same old street
And it's just another worn down, worn out casualty
Of 2nd ave and 6th st.
5.Econolodged
Step it up my life
spent round the clock
has got me running on a treadmill with no time to stop
and competition has put a price on time,
see all the people you left behind
and step on all the people that have fell behind,
competition has put a price on time.
Man,
I'm all I've got,
like it or not,
I'm all I've got.
I'm Econolodged.
6.Pez King
Watching the man up in the window
it always seems to me
that in 10 more years another someone may be watching me.
And do I really know what goes on inside？
As he dances down the street to the music in his mind,
time after time.
Watching the man up in the window
it always seems to me
that I'll be the one talking to myself as someone sits and
watches me.
And do I really know what goes on inside
as I wonder what goes on in their little plastic minds,
time after time.
7.Where The Hell Is Mike Sinkovich
I've never known what made you get up and go
And what pushed you over the edge,
When we were up on the roof
Was it the truth when you said
You never made a single difference.
Did you get it in your head
That things are better left unsaid
when you up and left town now？
Did you need to rearrange
Or did you need to make a change
Rather than just rotting the place
We used to hang around？
I know that things have gotta change,
I know your never coming back to this town.
I wonder where you've gone,
Who you're with;
I still ask myself,
Where the hell is Mike Sinkovich？
8.This Is Going Nowhere
I'm wondering around what used to be
downtown wet and feeling cold and kinda feeling old,
I'm walking around and I can almost hear the sound
of everyone I've known and all the people I've seen get up and
go.
And there's nothing left to say when
I look at friends and see how they've changed.
I kinda wish that it was years ago.
It's another missed connection,
another friend headed in the right direction？
Maybe it's the wrong one and when it's all said and done,
I don't think anybody knows
and it goes to show that I'm lost at the edge of 18,
keep losing track of what seems to have been 5 mintues ago.
9.Laverne And Shirley
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
Sclemeel, schlemazel, hasenfeffer incorporated.
We're gonna do it!
Give us any chance, we'll take it.
Give us any rule, we'll break it.
We're gonna make our dreams come true.
Doin' it our way.
Nothin's gonna turn us back now,
Straight ahead and on the track now.
We're gonna make our dreams come true,
Doin' it our way.
There is nothing we won't try,
Never heard the word impossible.
This time there's no stopping us.
We're gonna do it.
On your mark, get set, and go now,
Got a dream and we just know now,
We're gonna make our dream come true.
And we'll do it our way, yes our way.
Make all our dreams come true,
And do it our way, yes our way,
Make all our dreams come true
For me and you.
10.Fucked
Focus a moment
On the message sent
The anthem of a generation
Based on degredation and resent
Where money and power
And being the man of the hour
Has left communication
Left it standing out to sour
We fucked ourselves again

12.Dukes Of Hazzard
Just two good ole boys,
Never meaning no harm.
Beats all you never saw, been in trouble with the law
Since the day they was born.
Straightenin' the curves,
Flattenin' the hills.
Someday the mountain might get 'em but the law never will.
Makin' their wayyyyyy, the only way they know how.
Well, that's just a little bit more than the law will allow.
Just two good ole boys,
Wouldn't change if they could.
13.Shotgun
There was a kid so low, he couldn't stand up
No money, no respect and too much bad luck
Desperation had gotten to him at last
It was dark
Dark alley and a shot gun blast
And I knew a man everyone thought
Ws out of his mind
He had a cane and seemed to be around all the time
And it's a shame, when a car rolls past
It was dark
Dark alley and a shot gun blast
14.Down In The Mission
Like quicksand, i'm always getting deeper
The more I struggle, the more I get in deeper
And here I am, out there doing time
Out on the mission, down on the mission line
I'm down in the mission
15.St.James Hotel
There is a place not far from the city
Where old men go to die and bums are pissing
Last night no one checked out,
And I checked back in
While toothless winos
Watched and grinned
And they don't really care about you
Some things you can't tell
Sometimes I can't take the smell
St. James Hotel
16.Glumble
Second street west of 39th
Tries to sleep
But he only winds up walking all night
Tries to remeber when his head was right...
Sees his breath in the corner light
He walks away from his life
He tries to find...
Third street east of 49th
Can't sleep
She always seems to cry all night
Smokes another as the neighbors fight
Can't seem to keep her head on right
She wonders where's her life
She tries to find...
And when your thoughts are all you're finding
Can't you feel your gears are grinding you into the ground.
17.Lucky Day
Do you see me out there
Getting ready to go
Packing my frustrations away
I can always go for miles and still don't know
Why my disappointments always stay,
Packing all my frustrations away...
Why my disappointments always stay...
Am I wasting my time
I don't know what I will find...
Took eighteen years to realize
I don't know the reasons why!
The day I walked away
That was my lucky day!!!
18.Who Holds The Power Ring
When you look around
What you got don't mean a thing...
Waiting, waiting, waiting - stop!
You gotta stand and pick yourself up...
Hanging around don't mean a thing
Unless you hold the power ring.
19.Wish Pig
I wish I could have it all
And even if I could and then I would take it all,
Start it new with one thing that I could do
One wish I'd take it all away
I'd take it all away from you
I'd wish it all away...
20.Awkward Age
Late at night
I can see so clearly
They see right through me
And I know that ten years before
I was the kid at the corner store and I still know
And at that age things are so confusing
And no matter what I tried
I still wound up losing. are things still that confusing？
And at that age, that awkward age
I knew someday that things would change
Have I been thinking too much tonight
When I think of how my life's gone by？
And at that age...
There were things that I never really knew
And I keep hearing my parents say：
'Do as I say, don't say as I do.'
What could I do？
