Тексты песен с альбома Americana Have You Ever Falling,
I'm falling Have
you ever walked through a room But
it was more like the room passed around you Like
there was a leash around your neck that pulled you through Have
you ever been at someplace Recognizing
everybody's face Until
you realized that there was no one there you knew Well
I know Some
days, my soul's confined and out of mind Sleep
forever Some
days, I'm so outshined and out of time Have
you ever Falling,
I'm falling Have
you ever buried your face in your hands Cause
no one around you understands Or
has the slightest idea what it is that makes you be Have
you ever felt like there was more Like
someone else was keeping score And
what could make you whole was simply out of reach Well
I know Someday
I'll try again and not pretend This
time forever Someday
I'll get it straight but not today Have
you ever Falling,
I'm falling Some
days, my soul's confined and out of mind Sleep
forever Some
days, my darkest friend is me again Have
you ever Someday
I'll try again and not pretend This
time forever Someday
I'll get it straight but not today Have
you ever When
the truth walks away Everybody
stays Cause
the truth about the world is that crime does pay So
if you walk away Who
is gonna stay Cause
I'd like to think the world is a better place When
the truth walks away Everybody
stays Cause
the truth about the world is that crime does pay So
if you walk away Who
is gonna stay Cause
I'd like to make the world be a better place When
the truth walks away Everybody
stays Cause
the truth about the world is that crime does pay So
if you walk away Who
is gonna stay Cause
I'd like to think the world is a better place I'd
like to leave the world as a better place I'd
like to think the world ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Staring At The Sun Maybe
life is like a ride on a freeway Dodging
bullets while you're trying to find your way Everyone's
around, but no one does a damn thing It
brings me down, but I won't let them If
I seem bleak Well
you'd be correct And
if I don't speak It's
cause I can't disconnect But
I won't be burned by the reflection Of
the fire in your eyes As
you're staring at the sun When
I ran I didn't feel like a runaway When
I escaped I didn't feel like I got away There's
more to living than only surviving Maybe
I'm not there, but I'm still trying Though
you hear me I
don't think that you relate My
will is something That
you can't confiscate So
forgive me, but I won't be frustrated By
destruction in your eyes As
you're staring at the sun ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pretty Fly (For A
White Guy) You
know it's kind of hard Just
to get along today Our
subject isn't cool But
he fakes it anyway He
may not have a clue And
he may not have style But
everything he lacks Well
he makes up in denial So
don't debate, a player straight You
know he really doesn't get it anyway He's
gonna play the field, and keep it real For
you no way, for you no way So
if you don't rate, just overcompensate At
least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake The
world needs wannabe's So
do that brand new thing He
needs some cool tunes Not
just any will suffice But
they didn't have Ice Cube So
he bought Vanilla Ice Now
cruising in his Pinto, he sees homies as he pass But
if he looks twice They're
gonna kick his lily ass Now
he's getting a tattoo He's
gettin' ink done He
asked for a '13', but they drew a '31' Friends
say he's trying too hard And
he's not quite hip But
in his own mind He's
the dopest trip So
don't debate, a player straight You
know he really doesn't get it anyway He's
gonna play the field, and keep it real For
you no way, for you no way So
if you don't rate, just overcompensate At
least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake The
world needs wannabe's The
world loves wannabe's So
let's get some more wannabe's And
do that brand new thing ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Kids Aren't
Alright When
we were young the future was so bright The
old neighborhood was so alive And
every kid on the whole damn street Was
gonna make it big and not be beat Now
the neighborhood's cracked and torn The
kids are grown up but their lives are worn How
can one little street Swallow
so many lives Chances
thrown Nothing's
free Longing
for what used to be Still
it's hard Hard
to see Fragile
lives, shattered dreams Jamie
had a chance, well she really did Instead
she dropped out and had a couple of kids Mark
still lives at home cause he's got no job He
just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot Jay
committed suicide Brandon
OD'd and died What
the hell is going on The
cruelest dream, reality ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Feelings Feelings Nothing
more than feelings Trying
to forget my Feelings
of hate Imagine Beating
on your face Trying
to forget my Feelings
of hate Feelings
For
all my life i'll feel it I
wish I'd never met you You'll
make me sick again Feelings,
oh oh feelings Of
hate on my mind Feelings Feelings
like I never liked you Feelings
like I want to kill you Live
in my heart Feelings Feelings
like I wanna deck you Feelings
like I've gotta get you Out
of my life Feelings,
oh oh feelings The
hate's in my eyes Feelings,
oh oh feelings You're
not very nice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ She's Got Issues I'm
seeing this girl and she just might be out of her mind Well
she's got baggage and it's all the emotional kind She
talks about closure and that validation bit I
don't mean to be insensitive, but I really hate that shit Oh
man she's got issues And
I'm gonna pay She
thinks she's the victim Yeah Now
I know she'll feel abandoned If
I don't stay over late And
I know she's afraid to commit But
it's only our second date Oh
man she's got issues And
I'm gonna pay She
thinks she's the victim But
she takes it all out on me I
don't know why you're messed up I
don't know why your whole life is a chore Just
do me a favor And
check your baggage at the door Now
she talks about her ex nonstop, but I don't mind But
when she calls out his name in bed That's
where I draw the line You
told me a hundred times how your father left and he's gone But
I wish you wouldn't call me daddy When
we're gettin' it on Oh
man she's got issues And
I'm gonna pay She's
playing the victim And
taking it all out on me My
god she's got issues And
I'm gonna pay If
you think I'm controlling Then
why do you follow me around If
you're not co-dependent Then
why do you let others drag you down I
don't know why you're messed up I
don't know why your whole life is a chore Just
do me a favor And
check your baggage at the door ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Walla Walla Goodbye
my friend, you've messed up again You're
going to prison, you're off to the pen You've
gotten off easy so many times But
I guess no one told you how to get a life The
judge wasn't lenient like he was before You
got three to five and a kick out the door The
public defender really did try Too
little, too late, you didn't get a life Hey,
in Walla I'll
see you in Walla Walla Slap
on the wrist? Well, not this time Hey,
in Walla I'll
see you in Walla Walla Folsom
prison is the destination Hey,
in Walla I'll
see you in Walla Walla Slap
on the wrist? Well, not this time In
the scheme of life, we're all just brothers Rehabilitate
with all the others Well,
I'll see ya That
car looked so tempting, so easy to drive Just
like that apartment that you burglarized You
started to run, but didn't get far Cause
under your arm was a VCR Ho
ho, not this time my friend You'll
be in lockdown by ten I'm
afraid you can't talk your way out of this one, son Now
four walls are your 24-hour-a-day, constant companions. Hey,
in Walla I'll
see you in Walla Walla Slap
on the wrist? Well, not this time Hey,
in Walla I'll
see you in Walla Walla Folsom
prison is the destination Hey,
in Walla I'll
see you in Walla Walla Slap
on the wrist? Well, not this time In
the scheme of life, we're all just brothers Rehabilitate
with all the others Well,
I'll see ya Have
a nice life ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The End Of The Line When
the siren's flash is gone And
we're left to carry on All
the memories are too few When
the pastor's music plays And
that casket rolls away I
could live again if you Just
stay alive for me Please
stay now, you left me here alone - it's the end of the line Please
stay I can't make it on my own - it's the end of the line Make
it on my own It's
the end of the line Now
that you are dead and gone And
I'm left to carry on I
could never smile cause you Won't
stay alive for me Finally, Your
final resting day Is
without me I
weep And
think of brighter days What
about me? You
can't take back, the one mistake That
still lives on after life it takes In
that one day, that changed our lives And
bitter memories are left behind ------------------------------------------------------------------------ No Brakes Lay
awake I
don't give a shit If
I even ever wake up in the morning Down
below There's
a pile of sin Always
waiting for a Waiting
for a warning Burned
at the stake Inside
I'm blistering Not
a whisper Looking
in you'd never know it Miles
below I
look up again When
you snap they say Before
you never show it Someone
said it's all right Save
it now, don't say it for my sake Someone
said it's all right Faster
now, you know I got no brakes Fuses
glow Wounds
festering Till
the wind comes up And
takes it to the last pow Back
and forth Staring
at the wall This
room's a cage I
know that something's got to give now Someone
said it's all right Save
it now, don't say it for my sake Someone
said it's all right Faster
now, you know I got no brakes No
brakes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Why Don't You Get A
Job? My
friend's got a girlfriend Man
he hates that bitch He
tells me every day He
says "man I really gotta lose my chick In
the worst kind of way" She
sits on her ass He
works his hands to the bone To
give her money every payday But
she wants more dinero just to stay at home Well
my friend You
gotta say I
won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way Why
don't you get a job Say
no way, say no way, no way Why
don't you get a job I
guess all his money, well it isn't enough To
keep her bill collectors at bay I
guess all his money, well it isn't enough Cause
that girl's got expensive taste I
won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way Why
don't you get a job Say
no way, say no way, no way Why
don't you get a job Well
I guess it ain't easy doing nothing at all But
hey man free rides just don't come along every
day Let
me tell you about my other friend now My
friend's got a boyfriend, man she hates that dick She
tells me every day He
wants more dinero just to stay at home Well
my friend You
gotta say ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Americana Well
i'd like to tell you all about my dream, it's a place Where
strip malls abound and diversion's mere moments away Where
culture's defined by the Ones
least refined And
you'll be left behind If
you don't fit in It's
all distorted In
americana my way Well
my dream has come true My
vision has come true Now
give me my cable, fast food, four-by's, tat's right away I
want it right now cause my generation don't like to wait My
future's determined by Thieves,
thugs, and vermin It's
quite an excursion But
it's okay Everything's
backwards In
americana my way Well
my dream has come true My
vision has come true I'm
a product Of
my environment So
don't blame me, i just work here My
rights are denied by Those
least qualified Trading
profit for pride But
it's okay Everything's
backwards In
americana my way My
nightmare has come true My
nightmare has come true Yeah,
it's all coming true ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pay The Man See
the way the wind blows Lives
are intertwined Watch
the way the world goes The
man deals out our plight Jester
in the corner Laughs
without a sound Jester
in the corner Malady
abounds In
our souls See
the way the sun sets Twilight
of this life The
man is making little bets Playing
with our lives All
that I believe now Anything
is possible A
simple explanation For
the evil in this world And
in our souls In
our souls Come
down to sorry and sable It's
always the man Always
keeping you down Bow
down cause I see it before me Shadow
and light That
always keeps you running Shut
up you talk too much Pay
the man Shut
up you talk too much Look
at you and your struggle for freedom But
you ain't nothing We
all pay the man for living Wouldn't
it be nice for a change now To
be unchained My
life is for me now But
this is life Pay
the man Shut
up you talk too much Pay
the man Shut
up you talk too much Pay
the man Back
to the top!
