In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
Butane in my veins and I'm out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose

Kill the headlights and put it in neutral
Stock car flamin' with a loser and the cruise control
Babies in Reno with the vitamin D
Got a couple of couches, sleep on the loveseat

Someone came in sayin' I'm insane to complain
About a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt
Don't believe everything that you breathe
You get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve

So shave your face with some mace in the dark
Savin' all your food stamps and burnin' down the trailer park
Yo, cut it

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Forces of evil in a bozo nightmare
Ban all the music with a phoney gas chamber
'Cause one's got a weasel and the other's got a flag
One's on the pole, shove the other in a bag

With the rerun shows and the cocaine nose-job
The daytime crap of the folksinger slob
He hung himself with a guitar string
A slab of turkey-neck and it's hangin' from a pigeon wing

You can't write if you can't relate
Trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate
And my time is a piece of wax fallin' on a termite
That's chokin' on the splinters

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Yo, bring it on down
Soy
(Things are gonna change I can feel it)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

I. The Rover(Instrumental)


It was an April morning
When they told us we should go
And as I turn to you you smiled at me
How could we say no?
With all the fun to have
To live the dreams we always had
Woah the songs to sing
When we at last return again, yeah
Oh
Oh

Sending off a glancing kiss
To those who claim they know
To know the streets the seaman hears
The devil in his hole
Oh to sail away
To sandy lands and other days
Oh to touch the dream
Hides inside and never seen, yeah
Oh
Ooh

Into the sun the south the north
Lies the first of hope
Shackles of commitment fell
In pieces on the ground
Oh to ride the wind
To tread the air above the din
Oh to laugh aloud
Dancing as we fought the crowd, yeah
Oh oooh

To seek the man whose pointing hand
The giant step unfolds
With guidance from the curving path
That churns up into stone
If one bell should ring
In celebration for a king
So fast the heart should beat
As proud the head with heavy feet, yeah
Ooooh

Oh, yeah


Oh, yeah
Here we go
Wanted to know, oh, oh
Sing out hare, hare, oh
Dance the hoochie koo
The city lights
Oh so bright
As we go sliding
Sliding, sliding, sliding
Through
Oooh
Oooh
Oh, all right

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it, 'cause it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it, so sweet
But it makes no difference 'cause it knocks you off your feet

You want it all, but you can't have it

It's cryin', bleedin', lyin' on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it

You want it all, but you can't have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's in your face but you can't grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad, it happened, and it's a shame

You want it all, but you can't have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's in your face, but you can't grab it

What is it?

It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it

What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?

You want it all, but you can't have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's in your face, but you can't grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's it

I lost everything
I fell out of a daydream
At the door of a long lost friend
And I cried aloud
Without an inch of pride
I knew I had reached the end

An old and lonely man
Saw me sittin on the curb
He reached out an took my hand
He said I know your song
And I know your name
And there was a time that I felt the same

But it's a low low road
You've gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend
And it's a high, high hill
You've gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again

I held on so dearly
To the wrong things in my life
But now I see so clearly
I was walking into my own knife
You've got to get up off that street
Stop looking at your feet
And take a hold of something real
And this old man, took my hand
He looked at me and said, little girl, I understand

That it's a low low road
You’ve gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend
And it's a high, high hill
You've gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again

And there was a time that I thought that I knew it all
And there was a place that I thought I could call my own
But it all came crashing down and I looked around
And I knew that things would never be the same

Low low road
You've gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend
And it's a high, high hill
You’ve gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again

It's a low low road
You've gotta roll down
Before you find your way, my friend
And it's a high, high hill
You've gotta climb up
Before you get to the top again
Cause it's a low, low road
You've gotta roll down
It's a low, low road

There's no money
There's no possessions
Only obsession
I don't need that s***
Take my money
Take my obsession.

I just wanna be heard
Loud and clear are my words
Comin' from within' man, tell 'em what you heard
It's about a revolution
In your heart and in your mind, you can't find the conclusion
Lifestyle and obsession
Diamond rings get you nothin' but a lifelong lesson
And you're pocket book stressin'
You're a slave to the system, workin' jobs that you hate
For that s*** you don't need
It's too bad the world is based on greed
Step back and see
Stop thinkin' 'bout yourself, start thinkin' 'bout...

There's no money
There's no possession
Only obsession
I don't need that s***
Take my money
Take my possession
Take my obsession
I don't need that...

'Cos everything is nothing
And emptiness is in everything
This reality is really just a f***ed-up dream
With the flesh and the blood that you call your soul
Flip it inside out, it's a big black hole
Take your money burn it up like an asteroid
Possessions, they are never gonna fill the void
Take it away and learn the best lesson
The heart, the soul, the life, the passion.

There's no money
There's no possession
Only obsession
I don't need that s***
Take my money
Take my possession
Take my obsession
I don't need that s***.

Money...
Possession...
Obsession...

Present yourself, press your clothes
Comb your hair and clock in,
You just can't win, just can't win
The things you own, own you now!

Take my money
Take my possession
Take my obsession
I don't need that s***.

F*** your money
F*** your possession
F*** your obsession
I don't need that s***.

Money...
Possession...
Obsession...
I don't need that s***.

I can't stand it, I know you planned it
I'm a' set straight, this Watergate
I can't stand rocking when I'm in here
'Cause your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear
So while you sit back and wonder why
I got this f***in' thorn in my side
Oh my god, it's a mirage
I'm tellin' y'all it's sabotage

So listen up 'cause you can't say nothin'
You'll shut me down with a push of your button
But I'm out and I'm gone
I'll tell you now I keep it on and on

'Cause what you see you might not get
And we can bet so don't you get souped yet
You're scheming on a thing that's a mirage
I'm trying to tell you now it's sabotage

Whyyyyyyyyyyy!?
Our backs are now against the wall
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage
Listen all of y'all it's a sabotage

I can't stand it, I know you planned it
I'm a' set straight this Watergate
I can't stand rockin' when I'm in this place
Because I feel disgraced because you're all in my face
But make no mistakes and switch up my channel
I'm Buddy Rich when I fly off the handle
What could it be, it's a mirage
You're scheming on a thing, that's sabotage

Looking around
Wondering what this is for
Sure it's fine but i don't think i need this anymore
I took down my self appearance
And i found the definate clearance
I'm getting bored
inspiration is drained
Till i see your face is boredom
beside me...

:Chorus:
Feel this
Once one more to
Make sure its not a dream
I can't stand here any longer
Please don't wake me up
Your such a perfect dream
of all i ever...
Wanted at all

Bringing me down
A flow as the glass hits the floor
Shattered pieces
It's not what it used to be anymore
Rided it out on broken pieces
Tell me now what is your thesis
I need it more
To make it through the day
Till i see your face is boredom
beside me.....

:Chorus:

I never met this dream...
Reality
Once I fall inside of you
Again its so hard
To keep my mind off of you
To keep my arms off of you

So unreal
So sureal

But,You're just a dream
You're far away
Boredom will follow around me again

Forward yesterday
Makes me wanna stay
What they said was real
Makes me wanna steal
Livin' under house
Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse
All's I gots is time
Got no meaning, just a rhyme

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be

Feelin' uninspired
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run
Bobby's got a gun
Think you're kinda neat
Then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing
Guess I'll leave it up to me

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be

You're the dark to light
You're never satisfied
You only know things
That will fail to be
The pessimistic one
Who sees the end to come
Every joy is lost to tragedy

And still you wonder why
You cannot find your peace today
Cause you were meant to live
For so much more than this
Now if only you could see

You could be standing out in the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
There ain't a cloud in sight still
Your heartbeat's cold and grey every day

You know it brings me down
The way you drag around
Your heavy heart just like a stone
Well keep your misery
Don't put it all on me
Cause I've got problems of my own

You could be standing out in the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
So keep your cloud of darkness
And doom off my parade
Here today

And if I could you know
I'd set off a spark
I would burn it out
I would burn it all the way
And purify your jaded
Cold calloused heart
Someday, I'll find a way

-Solo-

You could be standing out in the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
There ain't a cloud in sight still
Your heartbeat's cold and grey every day

You could be standing out in the sun
Still the rain's coming down
Rain's coming down
Someday I'll steal the spark
That will burn your doubt away
I'll find a way

Company, always on the run
Destiny, it's the rising sun
I was born a shotgun in my hand
Behind the gun I'll make my final stand
Yeah, that's why they call me

Bad company, I can't deny
Bad, bad company
Till the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die

Rebel souls, deserters we've been called
Chose a gun and threw away the sun
Now these towns, they all know our names
The death punch sound is our claim to fame
That's why they call me

Bad company, I can't deny
Bad, bad company
Till the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die

Eye for an eye
Tooth for a tooth
Blood for blood
We've all gotta die, we've all gotta die

And that's why they call me
Bad company, I wont deny
Bad, bad company
Until the day I die

using your hands to murder to fasten minds
that feel no mercy and who knows us
who knows us?
bound by diversion rehearsed
endlessly through time hindered
your life is measured
by those inhibiting your mind

who's the scapegoat?
who is labeled?
who gnaws the desert
in frustration?
now who's the scapegoat?
who is labeled?
who gnaws the desert
in frustration?

(Solo - Werstler)

bound by
diversion rehearsed
endlessly through time hindered
your life is measured
by those inhibiting your mind

awe-inspired by murder
to trample dead
those who are subject to torture
and to hinder
to hinder

(Solo - Levi)

I don't like the drugs but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs

Norm life baby
We're white and oh so hetero
And our sex is missionary
Norm life baby
We're quitters, and we're sober
Our confessions will be televised

You and I are underdosed, and we're ready to fall
Raised to be stupid; taught to be nothing at all
(We're taught to be nothing at all)

I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
I don't like the drugs but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs

Norm life baby
Our god is white and unforgiving
We're piss tested and we're praying
Norm life baby
I'm just a sample of a soul
Made to look just like a human being
Norm life baby
We're rehabbed and we're ready
For our 15 minutes of shame
Norm life baby
We're talkshown and we're pointing
Just like Christians at a suicide

You and I are underdosed, and we're ready to fall
Raised to be stupid; taught to be nothing at all
(We're taught to be nothing at all)

CHORUS

There's a hole in our soul that we fill with dope
And we're feeling fine (x3)

CHORUS (x8)

Nightmare!

(Now your nightmare comes to life)

Dragged ya down below,
Down to the Devil's show,
To be his guest forever,
(Peace of mind is less than never)!

Hate to twist your mind,
But God ain't on your side,
An old acquaintance severed,
(Render of your last endeavour)!

Ashes burning, you can smell it in the air,
'cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal.

So stand in line while begging numbers in your head,
You're now a slave until the end of time,
And nothing stops the madness turning,
Haunting, yearning, pull the trigger!

You should have known, the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
Ooooh it's your f***in' nightmare!
(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can't wake up in sweat,
'cause it ain't over yet,
Still dancing with your demons,
(Victim of your own creation)!

Beyond the will to fight,
Where all that's wrong is right,
Where hate don't need a reason,
(Love is self-assassination)!

You've been lied to just to rape you of your sight, and now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel.
So sedated as they medicate your brain and while ya slowly go insane the tell ya:
"Give in with your best intentions, Help ya with your complications!"

You should have known the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
No one to call,
Everybody to fear,
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah.
Ooooh, it's your f***in' nightmare, ha-ha-ha-ha!

Fight (fight),
Not to fail (fail),
Not to fall (fall),
Or you'll end up like the others.

Die (die),
Die again (die),
Drenched in sin (sin),
With no respect for another.

Death (death),
Feel the fire (fire),
Feel the hate (hate),
Your pain is what we desire.

Lost (lost),
Hit the wall (wall),
Watch you crawl (crawl),
Such a replaceable liar.

And I know you hear their voices (calling from above),
And I know they may seem real (these signals of love),
But a life's made up of choices (some without appeal),
They took for granted your soul, and it's ours now to steal
(As your nightmare comes to life)!

You should have known the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
No one to call,
Everybody to fear,
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah...
Ooooh, it's your f***in' nightmare!

In my eyes
Indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face
Lies the snake
The sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat
Summer Stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come [x4]

Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
Sometimes far too long for snakes
In my sh***
Walking sleep
In my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send hell away
No one sings like you any more

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Won't you come (Black hole sun, black hole sun) [x4]

Hang my head
Drown my fear
Till you all just disappear

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come (Black hole sun, Black hole sun) [x7].

(When this began)
I had nothing to say
And I got lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find that
I'm not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
but all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain 'til it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I've got nothing to say
I cant believe I didn't fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find that it's
Not the way I had imagined it all in my mind.
(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
Cause I can't justify the way everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain 'til it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I will never know
Myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel
Anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be
Anything 'til I break away from me
And I will break away
I'll find myself today

I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain 'til it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I want to heal, I want to feel like
I'm somewhere I belong
I want to heal, I want to feel like
I'm somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong
