I've already ripped out the phones, honey.;
You can't walk the streets in a war
I can tell you fancy, I can tell you plain;
You give something up for everything you gain
Rock me, pretty baby, rock me 'til everything gets real;
Rock me for a little while, rock me 'til there's nothing left to feel;
And I'll rock you too
Everybody's wearing a disguise;
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
I got a poison headache,;
But I feel all right
I couldn't see where we were goin';
But you said you knew an' I took your word
When I met you, baby,;
You didn't show no visible scars.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
I'm walking through streets that are dead
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
it is not he or she or them or it;
That you belong to.
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah,;
Makes you stop and all wonder why.
If there's a poor boy on the street,;
Then let him have my seat;
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
You could ride like Annie Oakley,;
You could shoot like Belle Starr.
I'm goin' down to Tennessee,;
Get me a truck 'r somethin'.;
Gonna save my money and rip it up!
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her
All the people we used to know;
Are an illusion to me now
Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.;
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,;
And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
What kind of sign they need when it all come from within
I'm T-boned and punctured;
But I'm known to be calm
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
Well, if I had to do it all over again,;
Babe, I'd do it all over you.
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.;
Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,;
I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.
What good am I if I know and don't do,;
I If I see and don't say, if I look right through you
