Just hear me out
If it's not perfect I'll perfect it till my heart explodes
I highly doubt
I can make it through another of your episodes
Lashing out
One of the petty moves you pull before you lose control
You wear me out
But it's all right now

Lets go home and get stoned
We could end up makin love instead of misery
Go home and get stoned
Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me
You wear me out (We could end up making love instead of misery)
But it's all right now

Without a doubt
The break up is worth the make up sex you're givin me
Lets hash it out
Cause your b****in and your yellin don't mean anything
Don't count me out
I can handle all the baggage that you're carrying
You wear me out
But it's all right now

Let's go home and get stoned
We could end up makin love instead of misery
Go home and get stoned
Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me
You wear me out (We could end up makin love instead of misery)
But it's alright now

Lets go home and get stoned
We could end up makin love instead of misery
Go home and get stoned
Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me
Go home and get stoned
We could end up making love instead of misery
Go home and get stoned
Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me
You wear me out
(We could end up makin love instead of misery)
But it's all right now
(Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me)
Lets go home and get stoned
WooOooO
Lets go home and get stoned
WooOooO
Lets go home and get stoned
wooOooO
Lets go home and get stoned

I am iron, God!
Ooh!
Oh
Oh
Erah
Iron
Oow!
Red Rum

No matter how hard you try, you can't stop us now
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop us now

Since the prehistoric ages and the days of ancient Greece
On down through the Middle Ages
Planet earth kept going through changes
And then the renaissance came
And times continued to change
Nothing stayed the same, but there were always renegades
Like Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Paine
Doctor Martin Luther King, Malcolm X
They were renegades of their time and age
So many renegades

We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk

From a different solar system many many galaxies away
We are the force of another creation
A new musical revelation
And we're on this musical mission to help the others listen
And groove from land to land singing electonic chants like
Zulu nation
Revelation
Destroy all nations
Destroy all nations

Now renegades are people with their own philosophies
They change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me
We're the renegades, we're the people with our own philosophies
We change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me c'mon!

We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk

We're poppin', sockin', rockin' put a side of hip-hop
Because where we're goin' there ain't no stoppin'
Poppin', sockin', rockin' put a side of hip-hop
Because where we're goin' there ain't no stoppin'
Poppin', an' sockin', an' rockin', an puttin' a side of hip-hop
Because we're, poppin', sockin', rockin' put a side of hip-hop
Poppin', sockin', rockin' put a side of hip-hop

We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk

We're teachers of the funk
And not of empty popping
We're blessed with the Force and the sight of electronics
With the bass, and the treble
The horns and our vocals
'Cause everytime we pop into the beat we get fresh

C'mon

There was a time when our music
Was something called the big street beat
People would gather from all around
To get down to the big sound
You had to be a renegade those days
To take a man on the dance floor

Say jam sucka (jam sucka)
Say jam sucka (jam sucka)
Say groove, sucka (groove sucka)
Now groove, sucka (groove sucka)
Say dance, sucka (dance sucka)
Say dance, sucka (dance sucka)
Say move, sucka (move sucka)
Now move, sucka (move sucka)

Say jam sucka (jam sucka)
Say jam sucka (jam sucka)
Say groove, sucka (groove sucka)
Now groove, sucka (groove sucka)
Say dance, sucka (dance sucka)
Say dance, sucka (dance sucka)
Say move, sucka (move sucka)
Now move, sucka (move sucka)

We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk
We're the Renegades of Funk

I’m on the train that’s pullin the sick and twisted,
Makin the most of the ride before we get arrested,
We’re all wasted,
And we’re not going home tonight.

Covered in black we lack the social graces,
Just like an animal we crawl out of our cages,
They can’t tame us,
So if you’re one of us, get on the bus

If you’re a freak like me,
Wave your flag!
If you’re a freak like me,
Get off your ass!
It’s our time now,
To let it all hang out

So shout if you’re a freak like me,
You were born to burn,
This is no disease you don’t need a cure!
It’s our time now to come out!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!

We’re underground but we will not surrender,
We’re gonna give them something to remember, yeah,
So write your name in gasoline,
And set that s*** on fire

If you’re a freak like me,
Wave your flag!
If you’re a freak like me,
Get off your ass!
It’s our time now,
To let it all hang out

So shout if you’re a freak like me,
Don’t apologize,
They can’t hold you down,
You were born to rise!
It’s our time now to come out!

If you’re a freak like me
If you’re a freak like me
Are you a freak like me?
Are you a freak, like, me?!

If you’re a freak like me,
Wave your flag!
If you’re a freak like me,
Get off your ass!
It’s our time now,
To let it all hang out

So shout if you’re a freak like me,
Don’t apologize,
They can’t hold you down,
You were born to rise!
It’s our time now to come out!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!
If you’re a freak like me!

Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I'll be there
Waiting for
Dani the girl
Is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee
Overload

Steak-knife
Card shark
Con job
Boot cut

Skin that flick
She's such a little DJ
Get there quick
By street but not the freeway
Turn that trick
To make a little leeway
Beat that nic
But not the way that we play

Dog town
Blood bath
Rib cage
Soft tail

Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I'd be there
Waiting for

Black jack
Dope d***
Pawn shop
Quick pick

Kiss that dyke
I know you want to hold one
Not on strike
But I'm about to bowl one
Bite that mic
I know you never stole one
Girls that like
A story so I told one

Song bird
Main line
Cash back
Hard top

Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I'd be there
Waiting for
Dani the girl
Is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee
Of her soul

By the way I tried to say
I'd be there
Waiting for

Oh ah, kissed ya then I missed ya
Oh ah, kissed ya then I missed ya
Oh ah, kissed ya then I missed ya
Oh ah, kissed ya then I missed ya
Oh ah, kissed ya then I missed ya

Oh ah, kissed ya then I missed ya
Oh ah

I know you
From before

You've never dealt with this before
You unchained your grip, you know you did
And we will not take no more
An empty hand is your sacrifice
It's your upper hand for the last time

I wish you well, I wish you
I wish you well, I wish you

Your vanity it proved such a waste
You sank so low, now you know
You can't forget your place
Can't you see it slipping away?
It's your upper hand for your last day

I wish you well, I wish you
I wish you well, I wish you
I wish you well, I wish you

(Solo)

I wish you well, I wish you
I wish you well, I wish you
I wish you well, I wish you

And I wonder day to day
I don't like you anyway
I don't need your s*** today
You're pathetic in your own way

I feel for you
Better f***in' go away
I will behave
Better f***in' go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm doin' the best I ever did

I don't need to fantasize
You are my pet all the time
I don't mind if you go blind
You get what you get
Until you're through with mine

I feel for you
Better f***in' go away
I will behave
You better go away

I feel for you
Better f***in' go away
I will behave
You better go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm doin' the best I ever did
Now go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm doin' the best I ever did
Now go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm doin' the best I ever did
Now go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
Go away
I'm doin' the best that I can
Go away
I'm doin' the best I ever did
Go away
I'm doin' the best that I can
Go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm doin' the best I ever did
Now go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm doin' the best I ever did
Now go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm doin' the best I ever did
Now go away

I'm doin' the best I ever did
Go away
I'm doin' the best that I can

Down under the night sky
I lay in wait
Praying to whoever will listen to me.
I'd fashioned my own cross,
Been crushed by it's weight
There's no stronger message
Then dirt in your face.

I've seen down the end of the road
Now i deal in a different story, oh
And i will never go back again
I feel it in my bones, bones, bones
I feel it in my bones, bones, bones
I'll do this on my own. (o-o-oh bones, bones o-oh)

They say the spirit's willing
But the flesh is always weak
Well I found everything i needed right beneath my skin -oh

I've seen down the end of the road
Now i deal in a different story, oh
And i will never go back again
I feel it in my bones, bones, bones
I feel it in my bones, bones, bones
I'll do this on my own.

[Instrumental]

We're all architects in our own private hell.
No one can hurt us like we've hurt ourselves.

I've seen down the end of the road
Now i deal in a different story, oh
I will never let go again
I feel it in my bones, bones, bones
I feel it in my bones, bones, bones
I know i'm not alone (o-oh bones, bones o-oh no)

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)

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

(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

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***.

Alright

Scannin' the scene in the city tonight
Lookin' for you to start up a fight
There's an evil feeling in our brains
But it is nothing new
You know it drives us insane

Running, on our way
Hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths
Running, on our way
Hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths

Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy

There is no escape
And that's for sure
This is the end, we won't take any more
Say goodbye to the world you live in
You've always been takin' but now you're giving

Running, on our way
Hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths
Running, on our way
Hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths

Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy

Our brains are on fire with the feeling to kill
And it will not go away till our dreams are fulfilled
There is only one thing on our minds
Don't try running away, 'cause you're the one we will find

Running, on our way
Hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths
Running, on our way
Hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths

Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy
Searchin'
Seek and destroy

I'm not gonna waste this
This opportunity's mine
I'm sick of complaining
About a beautiful life

How did we get here?
Did we forget all the things inside?
And how do we stay here?
Do we embrace all the things tonight?

I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftop down
Until it's over and we're older

For my entertainment
You tell a whimsical lie
To keep me complacent
You knock me down with a smile

How did we get here?
How do we pretend everything's alright?
And how do we stay here?
Do we erase all the fear inside?

I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftop down
Until it's over and we're older

Like sugar and cyanide
These walls are going to collide
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over and we're older

So take me
But go slow
Let me hide somewhere I know
And let this
Seed grow
Until we finally call this home

So take me
But go slow
Let me hide somewhere I know
And let this
Seed grow
Until we finally call this home

If I was to die tonight
Would it tear you apart?
Would you yell it from the rooftops down?
Until it's over and you're older

I feel so alive tonight
You've me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftop down
Until it's over and we're older

Like sugar and cyanide
I wasn't meant to collide
I'm gonna yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over and we're older

There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say
There's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

There's a place where nothing seems to be
A simple night of easy life
It's all your mind, all your mind
Something little shouldn't feel this way
We got a million thoughts we can't complain
It's all your life, all your life

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

These things don't happen here, another fictional reality
It's all your mind, all your mind
It's just as good as any other day
I'm gonna teach you about mortality
Now it's not right, it's not right

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

In many ways I guess I'll never let you go
I'm close behind but I'm a lot more roomier than most
I took my second chance, just enjoy the dance
And found out who we are
Let's find out what we are, never leave asking why

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away, I know why you're running away
