Times were changing. eighteen years and fading. ain't a lot of time left to be a star. On an island. All alone and dying. Walk upon the water. but you won't get far.
You were never one for waiting. Still I always thought you'd wait for me. Have you from your dream awakened. And from where you are what do you see. .
Someone. Got themselves a letter. In the mail the other day. It's already worn and tattered. And I guess. It gives away. . All the things we keep inside.
Listen to me from deep down inside. I'm the madness that just will not die. With no regrets of what I'll do to you. Before the night is over. You'll be crawling to me.
Listen to me from deep down inside. I'm the madness that just will not die. With no regret for what I do for you. Before the night is over you'll be crawlin' to... me.
Do you remember. Look at me. At all the things we said we'd be. We'd beat the house. We'd push the odds. We'd take it all we had the cards. . With years to burn.
D'aventure en aventure. Amour pas mûr. D'maladresses en maladresses. L'amour, ça m'blesse. . Même si j'ai de la peine. Quand t'as de la haine. Même si j'ai de la peine.
Words and music: jim johnston. . I didn't sleep well last night, how about you? - you crazy thing! this bowl of toasteeo's wont pull me through, til pigs have wings, I wish I knew, what's going on, the king is dead, the legend still lives on, why has he been hiding from me for so long?.
Words and music: jim johnston. I must admit, I'm kinda freaked out, don't see what the big deal is all about.. One day it wont hurt, but I'm not to that stage, I think in time I'll start to act my age and step into the story where anything goes, it's always been this way, I suppose. hoping I'm doing all right, I take my bows and bask in the light of the unknown..
Words and music: jim johnston. Solo: jim brammer. Keys: clyde wilson. . I know what you're telling me to do, but I can't ignore the bended truth.. I will always remember, what the world will forget,.
What am I supposed to do without you?. Is it too late to pick the pieces up?. Too soon to let them go?. Do you feel damaged just like I do?. Your face, it makes my body ache.
(A G E N D AH AH AH). . Am I not pretty enough for ya?. Do I not have the narrative?. You need to like my aesthetic?. Am I not cute enough to remember?.
White girls!. You are attracted to us!. Black girls!. You are attracted to us!. Asian girls!. You are attracted to us!. Latinas!. You are attracted to us!.
There's nobody. There's no mountain. There's no tunnel. You can't get from there to here. You can't get from here to there. . There's nobody. There's no mountain.
Smokin' on a d!. . Burn all the fuel, die like a mule. Find yourself in a pickup truck. Loading up a nine, wasting any slime. Who tries to step, word to the mother.
Your brains went black. when she took back her love. and she put it out into the sun,. The birds did fly. when the heavens all went dry,. and the cigarettes were smoking by themselves..
Bazookas and fisticuffs medicating in Porches. 98-karat stick shift, Chinatown late-night meals. Alfonso giving me a backrub, 2 pm laser vizzaginal rejuvenation.
Amanda, light of the man's life. Make sure the faith in the light and make heard. The greatest woman. The greatest woman. To be the man's greatest wife.
He came into this world, helpless and unformed. I held him in my arms as he lay newly born. I said I would protect him and soothed him with my voice. America, here's my boy.
Time wears away. All the pleasures of the day. All the treasures you could hold. Days turn to sand. Losing strength in every hand. They can't hold you anymore.
