"Frustrated"


People who don't understand
Tryin' to keep together a band
Pigs that never let me be
Most of the justice that I see
One of those days, sleepless nights
Public scenes, domestic fights
Routine ruts from day to day
Girls who won't go all the way
So. Cal freeway jams
S.O.S. and legal scams
Rides that always sketch on me
Have to have her home by three
Memories of blowin' it
Thing I want that I can't get
Car won't start, I'm on my feet
Snakes in the grass, so indiscreet

These are some of the many things that make me
So frustrated

Needles always stuck on 'E'
Bums who want a ride for free
Kids who Jones away the lines
Cop poured out my jug of wine
Friends that never seem to call
Freaks that call out of the walls
Boss won't cut me any slack
Bill collectors on my back
People who were born to stare
Sledgehammer pulled out the air
Radio has shut us out
Record biz so full of doubt
Chicks that want in on the list
Guys who live to use their fists
Rent hikes all around the town
Got no place to lay me down

These are more of the things that make me
So frustrated
F-R-U-S-T-R-A-T-E-D
These are more of the things that make me
So frustrated
F-R-U-S-T-R-A-T-E-D

"Fukushima Lemon Twist"


Twisting on the end of a fork
In the warm California sun.
Another reactor blew its cork
Across the Pacific pond.

Let's party- beach party!
Clambake - Atomic Dip
Let's party - beach party!
Fukushima Lemon Twist!

Frontier justice in the waves
As our greed comes home to roost
Now we get what we gave
When we put our necks in a nuclear noose

Let's party - beach party!
Clambake - Atomic Stew
Let's party - beach party!
Okinawa Soba too.
Let's party - beach party!
Shiitake Mushroom Soup
Let's party - beach party!
Fukushima Lemon Twist!

Volleyball on the sand
Beach Blanket Bingo
Fukushima Lemon Twist!
Let's twist!
Fukushima Lemon Twist!
Let's twist!

"Gazetteer"


Time slipped baby while I was shoegazing
On Hollywood Boulevard
Yeah I get lucky, I find free parking
Up on Wilcox where I don't pay a thing
Snap, crackle, pop, I don't pay a thing

What I need's a way out of here
I need to go to the west side
I wanna see some stars!

Time slipped baby while I was sling hash
Offa Hollywood Boulevard
Tonight I get lucky, yeah I find a tip
Awaiting me at the end of the bar
Right before my eyes, a Map to the Stars!

What I need's a way out of here
I'm gonna go to the west side
I'm gonna see some stars

What I need's a way out of here
I need a reader of maps
I need a gazetteer

Time slipped baby, it's toil and trouble
Off Hollywood Boulevard
Outer space creatures
Manic street preachers
Go-go dancers, a circus of freeks
Snap, crackle, pop. I don't say a thing

"Genius In Pain"


I don't really know which way to go
What I really want to do
Can't you see the pain overload behind mine eyes?

Expecting mass perfection
So the plan will carry through
A gift from above? A curse in disguise?
Can't find a soul who'll sympathize

[Chorus:]
I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain
Try to keep a pace impossible to sustain
I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain
Well I've got to let the storm strike out of my brain
I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain
Said "Make no mistakes or it'll all go down the drain"
I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain
Said "Give me enough time and I'll go insane"

Ad Hoc, Ad Loc, Quid Pro Quo
So little time, so much to know
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
The fuses blow

Expecting mass obedience
So my life will go as planned
Is it my friend? Is it my foe?
Too many directions that I can go

[Chorus]

When I snap, my springs unwind
Will I take it out on you?
Can't you see the danger signs behind mine eyes?

Expecting mass destruction
If it doesn't go my way
Doesn't matter to me who lives or dies
Never, No, never will I compromise!

[Chorus]

Genius! - In pain!
Genius! - In pain!
Genius! - In pain!
Genius! - In pain! In pain! In pain! In pain!

"Guns Of September"


Ten years have passed
Ten years have passed
Since the guns of September
Ten years have passed

Don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, it's thunder
Don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, it's thunder
Outside, outside
This world of wonder
Don't cry, don't cry

Ten years have passed
Since the guns of September
Tanks in the street
Do you remember?
Fire in the night, smoke in the sky
We had to hide

Guns, guns
Guns, guns
Guns of September

Outside my window
The world's a disaster
It's who we are
Not how things should be
I look in your eyes
And see the potential
Who we are
And how things should be

Don't cry, don't cry
Guns of September

"Hawks And Doves"


Bombers in the sky
No one's asking why
We have to duck and cover
When the bullets start to fly
When the bullets start to fly
We have to duck and hide
It's just a game of cat and mouse

Missiles in production
Locked and set
Annihilate the cancer
Of the US deficit
Spend a little more
Fix it with a war
It's just a game of cat and mouse

Work a 60 hour week
Still can't pay the rent
Tax away my wages
To bomb another tent
Bomb another tent
That's how much money's spent
It's just a game of cat and mouse

Treason to contest
Where the money goes
It is invading people
Building shelter, buying clothes
Where does the money go
Where does the money go
It's just a game of cat and mouse

Hawks and doves
Hawks and doves
Hawks, doves
Hawks, doves
Hawks, doves, hawks, doves
Hawks, doves, hawks, doves, hawks

Blood all over
A gangster debt
Tanks on CNN
Propaganda TV set
Propaganda TV set
Propaganda TV set
It's just a game of cat and mouse

Borders we've established
To keep each other out
Serve the purpose all too well
To even talk about
Lock each other in
Lock each other out
It's just a game of cat and mouse

A child lays bleeding
From a random shot yesterday
We can't face the pain
So we quickly look away
The time has come today
Do not look away
It's just a game of cat and mouse

Lock each other up
Lock each other in
Blow it all to hell
In wars we cannot win
Wars we cannot win
Wars we cannot win
It's just a game of cat and mouse

Hawks and doves
Hawks and doves
Hawks, doves
Hawks, doves
Hawks, doves, hawks, doves
Hawks, doves, hawks, doves, hawks

"House Of The Rising Sun"
(originally by Animals)



There is a house down in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun,
It's been the ruin of many a poor girl,
And me, oh god I'm one.

My mother was a tailor.
She sewed those new blue jeans.
My lover was a gambling one.
Down in New Orleans.

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

He fills his glasses up to the brim,
And push those cards around.
The only pleasure he gets out of life
Is rambling from town to town.

Now tell my baby sister,
Not to do what I have done.
But shun that house in New Orleans,
They call the Rising Sun.

Got one foot on the platform
The other foot on that train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

I'm going back to New Orleans
The aged-old soul have run
I'm going back to end my life,
Down in the Rising Sun.

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun,
It's been the ruin of many a poor girl,
And me, oh god I'm one.

"I Got A Right"
(originally by The Stooges)



Anytime I want I got a right to move -
No matter what they say!
Anytime I want I got a right to move -
No matter what they say!

Honey, I got a right, a right to move
Anytime I want - Yeah any old time!
Honey, I got a right, a right to move
Anytime I want.

Anytime I want I got a right to sing -
No matter what they say!
Anytime I want I got a right to sing -
No matter what they say!

Anyway I want - Yeah any old way!
Honey, I got a right, a right to sing
Anyway I want.

"I Hate Children"


Another child born to the house - I hate children
Raise him right so he won't be a mouse - I hate children
I hate it when they make lots of noise - I hate children
And I broke my neck tripping over their toys - I hate children

[Chorus:]
Shut your mouth you stupid little brat
What you need's a smack smack smack
If I had my way I'd give you all away

I hate the crying that they make - I hate children
Screaming and whining for a piece of cake - I hate Children
I hate getting up late at night - I hate children
To Check and see if the crying baby's alright - I hate children

[Chorus]

Now you're had you little monstrous kid - I hate children
It's of you that I'll be rid - I hate children
Do you see this toy it's called a gun - I hate children
And if you wanna live you'd better run - I hate children

[Chorus]

I hate children - I hate children
I hate Children - I hate children
Kill all children dead

"I Love You"


Go!

I'm still wondering how I could have said
All the wrong things at the wrong time
And how you managed to keep your head
When I got - way out of line
These feelings of mine should have come sooner
There's no way I can imagine your loss.
I ask myself "How could you do this to her?"
You're the last person I'd ever cross.

[Chorus:]
And I hear your anger,
It's too late to take back what's been said.
It won't go away the morning after,
Guilt's a parasite that leaves all dead.
And I break down, yeah I want to die,
I can't because I know there's something more
Alone in the morning I start to cry,
In the end I feel worse than before.

As we sit outside so afraid to see him,
We wonder if he's better off now.
We can't face the pain of the mausoleum,
We can't be strong because we don't know how.
And we know he's right here next - beside us
The feelings in the air are all so tense.
We want so much more, too much ain't enough
Why are we so afraid of his presence?

[Chorus]

Mother looks to her husband in the eye,
"Our baby's gone." They start to cry.
If you come back and its just for a day -
There's only three words we all want to say -
I LOVE YOU! [x8]
