There you go actin' a fool again, in this life nothin' will come of it.. Escape into television again to pass the time.. Big Brother hates your identity, self-obsessed, bent on pain and loathing.
Blue fingertips are sore from tracing your curves, i've severed my. nerves on a rusty cellar door.. Wrestle this heavy broken handle corroded from within, secret words.
Rumbleseat - John Cougar Mellencamp. All the leaves are green. All my friends are gone. I'm livin' in my hometown. I can barely get along. I feel sorry for myself.
Got my hands on a little bit of dough. So I went to the grocery store. And got some steaks to go. Went by and picked up my gal, Teddi Jo. We had ourselves a picnic.
Hey - where'd you go?. You left me alone and so cold.. All I need is a clue. as to how this could all be real.... . Hey! Is this fate? Or just bad luck?.
R.O.C.K. In The U.S.A. - John Cougar Mellencamp. They come from the cities. And they come from the smaller towns. Beat up cars with guitars and drummers.
Light breaks through cracks in the sky,. My world is crashing down one truth at a time.. The ground is shaking, the walls are caving in,. Now I'm treading neck-deep in a pool of your sin..
(John Mellencamp/George M. Green). Scarecrow on a wooden cross, blackbird in the barn. Four hundred empty acres that used to be my farm. I grew up like my daddy did, my grandpa cleared this land.
They come from the cities. And they come from the smaller towns. Beat up cars with guitars and rummers. Goin' crack boom bam. CHORUS. R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A..
(John Mellencamp/Brian Bec Var). God gave Moses a few little rules. And he said, I want you to pass them around. Take a look at those old fools. I can't believe the shit that's going down.
We rode our horses in the city. Didn't we love living there. Now it's gone to those more beautiful. 'Cause younger is always so pretty. The marmalade the bed we made.
Never wanted to be no pop singer. . never wanted to write no pop songs.. never had no weird hair to get my songs over. . never wanted to hang out after the show..
I heard them saying, you don't want me. You don't need me, not anymore. I heard them saying, you don't love me. You don't care for me, not anymore. . Look at all those things I have beared for you.
There's a black man with a black cat livin' in a black neighborhood. He's got an interstate runnin' through his front yard. You know he thinks that he's got it so good.
You bring light to my darkness. Do you remember. When you came into my life. It was like summer?. . How can I face that without you?. How can I make it without you?.
She had a dream. And boy it was a good one. So she chased after her dream. With much desire. But when she got too close. To her expectations. Well the dream burned up.
I can't believe you want to leave so soon. The party's just begun now, don't go away. The music is sweet for your dancin' pleasure. Baby, has no measure.
If you believe. Won't you please raise your hands. Let's hear your voices. Let us know where you stand. Don't shout from the shadows. Cause it won't mean a damn.
Love makes the world go round and round. Love makes the world go round and round. . We're gonna make things better. Just you wait and see. You for me and me for you.
There's a band playing down the street we could see, yeah. Movie showing down at the Von Lee. A church supper with Grandma and Grandad. Let's go out and have ourselves the best time we've ever had.
