When mute tongues can speak. And relate their need. I make fun of skins laying in a dark room. In a piglet's eye. If the dream had wings. Then the nest of feathers could freeze without them.
In the rites of passage, I did partake. But to say that I'm responsible would be a mistake. What do I have to do to prove myself to you?. . In a manner of speaking, you've taken all the finest pieces.
I won't go, I won't stay. 'Til you give me a taste. I wanna feel like that. . So I shake, and you sweat. And we dance, now let's sing. Oh no, no, no, no, no I wanna feel like that.
On my road. The second floor of the house is shaking. On boxes. And your kitchen sink is filled with dishes. . Upstairs. The window leads to another building.
Hey God, are you up there?. I know it's been a while but I've I've been away. I'm in trouble I'll take a number if I I've gotta wait. But there's a girl in this world that and she's killing me.
I can tell when I'm dead inside. I stop thinking of God. I'm living in hell. . I stop wishing, wishing. I stop wishing. Wishing you well. . I had a friend.
As one of the successful singles off of 'Sin', 'Where Were All Of You' may be one of the most representative songs of what Poor Old Lu's sound is like. Aggressive. Dreamy. Deep. Poppy. Something like all of that, but mixed up and jumbled around. This song is especially notable for the driving bass line and very effected vocals. In 1998, a special re-mix was made for the album 'Chrono'..
This song has always had a very emotional vibe to it, mainly because of the title, but also because of the melancholy feel. Actually, the title comes from a long running band joke. In the 80's, Marvel released a series of Spiderman comics called the "What If..." series. One of those issues was called, of course, "What If Uncle Ben Had Lived?". Over the years, when someone would start a comment with "what if...", one of us would usually fill-in the blanks, so to speak. For some reason that title just seemed to fit with this song. The result has been interesting as some have wanted to know what happened with my Uncle Ben (falling down the stairs, etc.) but, of course, I have no such uncle..
They don't mind, take our wallets. Tell us how you're gonna steal our time. (We shot the world). 'Cause you know you'll never tear us apart. (We shot the world).
In the night I look for love. Get my strength from the man above. God of piston, God of steel. God is here behind the wheel. . I'm just working for the man.
In the forest, is a monster. It has done, terrible things. So in the wood, it's hiding. And this is, the song it sings. . Who will love me now? who will ever love me?.
( with moonshake ). . We're making war, lover. We are not getting on. I will not change to keep the peace. You won't admit you're wrong. I've got a bellyful of grudges and I will not let them out.
We wanted to find love. We wanted success. Until nothing was enough. Until my middle name was "excess". . And somehow I lost touch. When you went out of sight.
Water, walking. Walking on water. Walking. Walking on. . For years and years and years. Taking it into my head. Living by the right lines. Reading what the very man said.
Tell automatic slim. Tell razor-totin' jim. Tell butcher-knife-totin' annie. Tell fast-talkin' fannie. We're gonna pitch a ball. Down to the union hall.
You're such a sexy thing and it's all right. But your daddy loves you and that's all right. He buys you diamond rings, but I'm giving you better things.
Came to Hollywood. Gonna be a movie star. She got off the bus. She didn't get far. . Now she can act as good as Meryl Streep. Dreams of stardom when she sleeps.
Hey, uh huh, huh. Hey, uh huh, huh. . That's what I like about you. The way you hold me tight. Tell me I'm the only one. Wanna come over tonight, yeah.
Like this.... . On the road for forty days,. Last night in little rock put me in a haze.. Sweet, sweet connie -- doin her act,. She stole the whole show and thats a natural fact..
Alone on my steel horse I ride. The engine echoes in the night. Through a concrete jungle a wasteland I call home. . No fears and no regrets. No apologies for the things I've said.
