I Don't Know Something's wrong with me I asked God, what could it be But she only lies Whaddya expect from a God you can't see Chorus: I don't know what I'm here for Where the hell I should go I don't know what I'm here for I don't know, I don't know But I know one thing I had a moral compass It pointed at my heavy heart But the needle busted It struck me like a poison dart Chorus But I know one thing And you know something But I know one thing And you know something But who the hell should care Not anyone, anywhere If I'd just disappear It'd be like I was never here Chorus

Los Alamos I saw Jesus coming Up a canyon road He was pointing his Chevy At Los Alamos It was a bright and sunny Judgment day And he was coming To make us pay Chorus: Judge not lest you be judged Jesus is coming and he's got a grudge He's still pissed off about the nails and cross And he's kicking ass at Los Alamos He's through the gate With just a smile He's planting his bombs Along the murder mile Flick of a switch A devil's set free The fire is coming For you and me Chorus Los Alamos It's the Holy Ghost Los Alamos It's the big vamos Los Alamos It's the Holy Ghost Los Alamos Say adios Spoken: There he was racing through the desert Rising like a phoenix out of Santa Fe The dust was licking at his wheels "La Bamba" blasting across the sagebrush He took a plug of Red Man out of his pocket And he tipped his cap as he drove by A barren world But one man stands A vodka martini In his hands It's his reward For a job well done He's celebrating Man's final run Chorus

Long Distance Runner You talked all about the passion But it was really the perfect crime         An ax, a gun and a game plan But the fingerprints they found were mine Chorus: 'Cause you are a long-distance runner Running 'til you run out of track 'Til you run out of friends and their favors Then you'll come crawling back Sometimes I think I should kill me In a set-up that fingers you Your sweet little bloody handprints And a hole right through my heart tattoo But I picture your cell on death row And I know that will never come true So I think I'm just gonna linger And leave the killing, my princess, to you Chorus There's something quiet I can see it in your eyes Like a badger in a forest Dreaming alibis Like a junkie in a alley With a lead pipe in his hand Like a bad cop slippin' a pistol To an innocent dead man It was on a slow boat to China Yes, that's where I met you my dear You were fleecing a flat-footed Frenchman Said opportunity knocks anywhere Chorus

Counting On You Walking On a thorny path My feet are bleeding But I'm doing the math I figure something Is up ahead for me I can taste it I can smell it But I just can't see Chorus There's gotta be something up ahead for me I keep on pushing because I've gotta believe But now I need more than faith to carry me through Can't you see, I'm counting on you Sunday morning I'm alone again The bars are closed I miss my friends I figure most things Haven't worked out It makes me feel so bad It makes me wanna shout Chorus Followed Like a stalker in the rain Yeah I followed And I'd do it again Not even Superman Could make me stay I'm gonna take all my nothing And throw it all away Chorus

Summer of Love Look, the cloud is a dog And this is the summer of love Oh, I stare in the fog And you are the fallen dove Chorus: You, something I'm needing You, something I feel You, have you got something on my Love, is it part of the deal Burn, star of my heart Tearing the world apart Skin, covers my soul Keeping my body whole Chorus Old ways New day Don't beg Pray Clear up your mind The future is so unkind Gone, blowing away Silhouette clouds won't stay Chorus

Whiskey and Mary Jane They say that time is wasting And I'm wasted right on time Can't spend another minute Inside this head of mine I don't need a doctor Or spell to cure my pain I only need my sweet things Whiskey and Mary Jane Whiskey and Mary Jane Whiskey and Mary Jane If I had a hammer I throw that thing away Cause I just wanna drink and smoke Every goddamned day The cops all wanna bust me My friends thinks I'm insane But I only need my true loves Whiskey and Mary Jane Whiskey and Mary Jane Whiskey and Mary Jane I'm picking off my brain cells One by one by one And no one's gonna stop me I'm having too much fun Yeah, I believe in gettin' high I'm on a hell-bound train Ridin' with my sweet things Whiskey and Mary Jane Whiskey and Mary Jane Whiskey and Mary Jane

Pillar of Salt I put a gun to my head But I didn't even know it Put a bullet in my brain But I was too dumb to show it Chorus: I'm a little self-destructive It's my own fault I've turned my lot Into a pillar of salt Don't look back At the fields of flowers Don't look back At the pissed-away hours Don't look back At what you devoured Don't look back At all, at all, at all I stuck a knife in my veins But I didn't even twist it I gave you a chance Now I believe you missed it Chorus I'm like a screaming car crash On a moon-lit highway I'm bleeding in the steel But I'm doing it my way Chorus

Dark Red Heat My wheels are spinning Feeling scared I'm not going Anywhere My body twitch My hands they shake What I can't buy I'm gonna break Chorus: In the dark red heat Crack my spine Kink my bone Heart-a race All alone Take the aim Feel the power Zero in It's the zero hour Chorus My feet they sweat Got a greasy mind Itchy fingers Running blind Short sharp shock St. Vitus Dance Give me fever Give me trance Chorus

Blue Eyed Son Sunshine on my windowsill Feels like a brand new start So I light another cigarette Stick a needle in my heart 'Cause no one really cares about me They just want the things I've done But I keep telling everybody I'm just another blue eyed son Wonder where my father is Wonder what he'd have to say Wonder where my friends are Why I scared them all away I have built a wall around me Please kick the bricks out one by one It's just like I've been telling everybody I'm just another blond-haired son I see the ocean through my tears Out the window of my room My guts are eaten up by fear And the sunlight smells like doom But I think they'll believe me when I pull the trigger on this gun 'Cause it's just like I've been telling everybody I'm just another lost soul son
