The Middle of Nowhere
03:20
|
|||
We are looking for the middle of nowhere
We won't find it here on earth
But I'm damn sure it's somewhere
Before we get out
Find me the love I'm missing
I won't get my loving from the bible
I only know I really want to
Get out of the city
I got I gotta get away
Oh my oh my it seems that we have
Gotta gotta get away
Believe me now believe me now
It's my turn to drive now
And I get a CD playing
You can tell it's grunge
When you can't understand
A word the fucker's saying
Before we take off
Say goodbye to all your neighbours
Cause there ain't no neighbours
Where we're going
I only know I really want to
Get out of the city
I got I gotta get away
Oh my oh my it seems that we have
Gotta gotta get away
Believe me now believe me now

Got sent away
But I'll be coming back again
Got sent away
But I tell you my friend
I'm coming back with all my teeth
Oh I gotta turn the tide
And I gotta move my time
Oh but I can break my stride
And I can't take my time
Got no one to thank you for it
And you got no one to take it
Away away oh
I gotta move my time
Got no one to thank you for it
And you got no one to take it
Away away away oh
Got no one to thank you for it
And you got no one to take it
Away away away oh
Got no one to thank you for it
And you got you got
You got no one to take it away
Got sent away
But I wasn't making any other plans
Now I gotta leave this town
What can I say?
I earned my mojo working for the man
Oh I gotta turn the tide
And I gotta move my time
Oh but I can break my stride
And I can't take my time
Got no one to thank you for it
And you got no one to take it
Away away oh
I gotta move my time
Got no one to thank you for it
And you got no one to take it
Away away away oh

Speakeasy
05:07
|
|||
People love and people fight
Getting higher than a rocketship in flight
Just passing time
But when the sirens start to play
We'll duck for cover
But it won't ruin our day
Twenty armies on the move
Marching closer to the thing they gotta prove
They make good time
But when the sirens start to play
They'll duck for cover
In the bright light of day
You started on top
And it's where you're going to stay
See their faces on market day
Even if you lie you're still in power
Especially if you steal
But you ain't got time on your side
Ripping it up at the speakeasy
And taking all your empties
Back to Stockholm street
Having a blast in this one-horse-town
Where you can hit the poker rooms
And drop all of your winnings
At the banker's feet
That bureaucrat won't know what hit him
Living it up at the speakeasy
And dragging all your buddies
Back to Stockholm street
Having a blast in this one-horse-town
Where you can have the love
You can have the fight my friend
Twenty candles side by side
Burning like a supernova
Twice as bright as a shooting star
But when the fire starts to spread
We're nebulizing
That's what the astronomer said
And in the morning in a tree
The sun is beating on napoleon and me
We pass the time
But when the sirens start to play
We'll duck for cover
Till that sound fades away
You started on top
And it's where you're going to stay
See their faces on market day
Even if you lie you're still in power
Especially if you steal
But you ain't got time on your side

Got wired and then the cops showed up
It's a shame about it
We were fine
A little low on luck
A little high on time
I'll meet you down the line
If it's all the same to you
I'll get gone, get out on the highway
If it's all the same old shit
I'm better left alone
On another planet where
The light shines mainly in the infrared
On another world where
I'm better left alone
If it's all the same to you
I'll get gone, get out on the highway
If it's all the same old shit
I'm better left alone
On another planet where
The light shines mainly in the infrared
On another world where
I'm better left alone

It's hell or the jailhouse down the street
That man is a mess from his head down to his feet
But he'll bind your hands
And torture you all night
So don't piss off the police
Cause they won't keep the peace
No don't piss off the police
Cause they won't keep the peace
Precious peace
It's jail or the hellhouse down the street
That man makes a mess then he goes to take a seat
But he'll be up again in a little while
So don't piss off the police
Cause they won't keep the peace
No don't piss off the police
Cause they won't keep the peace
Precious peace

I was so damn tired I wound up
Sleeping in a railway station
And I considered howling at
The big old blood red moon
I'm so damn sick of all the prior connotations
But for the moment I'll keep
Howling howling howling howling
I gotta keep on
Howling howling howling howling
Until I get home
I'm so damn lucky I was
Struck by a bolt of lightning last night
I was bathed in a
White and blinding light
It didn't last long but it
Stung like a bee
That much I can tell you
It won't be long before I'm
Crawling crawling crawling crawling
I gotta keep on
Crawling crawling crawling crawling
Until I get home

What a way to make it
From A to B
Ignore your senses
And get to C
What a way to make it
From A to B
Ignore your senses
What a way to make it
From A to B
Ignore your senses
And get to C
What a way to make it
From A to B
Ignore your senses

Well it feels like I never
Had to be alone
And they tell me that I never
Lived in my own home
Well it feels like I never
Had to be alone
And they tell me that I never
Lived in my own home
How many times will you tell me
That it was the strangest thing you ever did see?
The guru said that life is just a school so
How many times will you make me your fool?
The guru said that I should be
The merriest man you ever did see
Well it feels like I never
Had to be alone
And they tell me that I never
Lived in my own home
Well it feels like I never
Had to be alone
And they tell me that I never
Lived in my own home
How many times will you tell me
That it was the strangest thing you ever did see?
The guru said that life is just a school so
How many times will you make me your fool?
The guru said that I should be
The merriest man you ever did see

When I was a boy I struck a balance
Between my toys and gun violence
Rather than taking my time
I was in a hurry but I was in my prime
But sometime I'd
Like to meet him face to face
He comes from the earth
But he lives in space
In the great red spot of jupiter
In the great red spot
When I couldn't fly I tried walking
When that didn't work oh I started sulking
It's better than losing your mind
Not gonna be easy but we'll take it one day at a time
But sometime I'd
Like to meet him face to face
He comes from the earth
But he lives in space
In the great red spot of jupiter
In the great red spot
There he goes
Walking down the railway line
His friends in tow
And they're sitting on a goldmine
Watch him go
Running down the railway line
With his friends in tow
They're only there to have a good time
The great red
The great spot

Aqueducts and Astronauts

There were aqueducts when I was young
In the city state where I belong
I get the strange feeling I might be wrong
In that city in the sky
Where I'm falling out of my mind
Oh my
There were astronauts when I grew old
In the very same city state or so I'm told
But they were left out all night in the cold
In that city in the sky
Where I'm falling out of my mind
Oh my
