Real Gone

Yer upstairs where the sweet clean go
I'm in the middle yer of an all-time low
Can’t get a lover or a trade-in deal
I’m on the other side she’s cutting steal
It’s too Bad It’s too Good
Are the words really made out of wood?
Real Gone Real Gone
I was living but I felt so alone
Yer upstairs in my bedroom
In the middle of the afternoon
Just read a book on a guy named Zool
You’ll never know what you put me through
It’s too Bad It’s too Good
Are the words really made out of wood?
Real Gone Real Gone
I was living but I felt so alone
Yer I’m Real Gone
Yer I’m Real Gone
It’s too Bad It’s too Good
Are the words really made out of wood?
Real Gone Real Gone
I was living but I felt so alone
Yer I’m Real Gone
Yer I’m Real Gone
Yer I’m Real Gone
Yer I’m Real Gone
I'm Gone
She’s Gone
Yer I’m Real Gone

No Reason
03:35

Only I understand the situation
Feeling like this all through the night
Watching you suffer indignation
Feeling like this all the god damn time
All your words seem so hollow
Free your mind and your ass will follow
Sick of all these crappy scenes
Sick of hanging round with Mr Clean
When I opened up my mind
See me walking down the line
Destination dead ahead
Laying where I lay my bed
And the sun refuse to shine
Think I’m drifting outta time
I don’t need a reason
Only I understand the situation
I'm feeling like this all through the night
Watching you suffer indignation
I'm feeling like this all through the night
When I opened up my mind
See me walking down the line
Destination dead ahead
Laying where I make my bed
And the sun refuse to shine
Think I’m drifting outta time
I don’t need a reason
When I opened up my mind
See me walking down the line
Destination dead ahead
Laying where I make my bed
And the sun refuse to shine
Think I’m drifting outta time
I don’t need a reason

Bad Blood
02:32
|

Yer it coulda been me
But it was you
Who went and bit off a little bit more than you could chew
You had it made
But you been had
The woman no good, no how, thinkin' the blood is bad
Bad (ba-a-ad) blood (blo-o-od)
The woman was born to lie
Makes promises she can't keep with the wink on an eye
Bad (ba-a-ad) blood (blo-o-od)
Brother, you've been deceived
It's bound to change you mind
About all you believe
From where I stand
It looks mighty strange
How a woman can treat you like small change
I don't understand
What you're lookin' to find
The only thing about bad blood messing a goodman's mind
Bad (ba-a-ad) blood (blo-o-od)
The bitch is in her smile
The lie is on her lips
Such an evil child
Bad (ba-a-ad) blood (blo-o-od)
The woman was born to lie
Makes promises she can't keep with the wink on an eye
Doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, ron
Doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, ron
Doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, ron
Bad blood, talking 'bout bad blood
Doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, ron
Doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, ron
Doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, doo-ron, ron
Bad blood, talking 'bout bad blood
Bad (ba-a-ad) blood (blo-o-od)
The bitch is in her smile
The lie is on her lips
Such an evil child
Bad (ba-a-ad) blood (blo-o-od)
The woman was born to lie
Makes promises she can't keep with the wink on an eye
The only good thing about bad blood is lettin' it slide
The only good thing about bad blood is lettin' it slide
Slide, Slide, Slide

Well 1969
Where did you go?
Well 1969
Yer I sure do know
Well you told me the truth now darling
Should have told me a lie

Yer I offered something new
I sent you Indirections
You never even knew
Well 1969

Little Too Late
02:58
|

It’s a little too late
For explanations
It’s a little too late
To tell me why
Tell me why
You should have known
Yer I wouldn’t fall for that
Yer and in my heart assassination grows
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re just nobody to me
You’re just nobody to me
With your so green eyes
And your red red lips
You turn me on
But now it's not my thrill
You should have known
I wouldn’t fall for that
Yer and in my heart assassination grows
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re just nobody to me
You’re just nobody to me
You’re just nobody to me
It’s a little too late
For explanations
It’s a little too late
To tell me why
Tell me why
You should have known
I wouldn’t fall for that
Yer and in my heart assassination grows
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re all wrapped up inside yourself
You’re just nobody to me
You’re just nobody to me
You’re just nobody to me
You’re just nobody to me
Nobody to me
Nobody to me
Nobody to me
Nobody to me
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody

It's So Hard
03:16
|

Hey when get off your high horse
Decide to be yourself
You’ll find the things you were looking for
They were always on the shelf
& when you kill that spotlight attitude
All that built-in hate
The sooner you’ll discover
That it’s not so bad a wait
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so
Sweep away illusions
Decide to come to town
You know the wiser will be wishing
It's a safer journey down
& when you dim those cross-cut spinning lights
Sound that false alarm
Soon you’ll be waiting
With hope & open arms
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so
Hey when get off your high horse
Decide to be yourself
You’ll find the things you were looking for
They were always on the shelf
& when you kill that spotlight attitude
All that built-in hate
The sooner you’ll discover
That it’s not so bad a wait
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so hard
It’s so

Lest We
04:46
|

We learn the world from black sheep
And they know it all too well
They wrote and told a story
About life without a shell
It could be a painful ending
End of an ageless line
Well she paints them pretty pictures
And says to me
Yeah one of us must die
Lest we forget
Yer oh yer
Lest we forget
So long-forgotten heroes
They're steeped deep in history
Yer so much for fame and glory
Too short my memories
I guess it’s a painful ending
Well end of an ageless line
Well she paints them pretty pictures
And says to me
Yeah one of us must die
#CHORUS
Lest we forget
Yer, oh yer
Lest we forget
Yer, oh yer
Lest we forget
So long-forgotten heroes
They're steeped deep in history
So much for fame and glory
Too short my memories
I guess it’s a painful ending
Well end of an ageless line
Well she paints them pretty pictures
And says to me
Yeah one of us must die
Lest we forget
Yer, oh yer
Lest we forget
Yer, oh yer
Lest we forget
Aaah ah ah ah ah
Aaah ah ah ah ah
Aaah ah ah ah ah
Aaah ah ah ah ah
Awaken now
Sleeping giants
Black sheep drowned
In misery
Let loose
The mourning widows
Explain to them
Lest we

For All I Know
02:44
|
|||
It’s a hard road you travel on
When you find yourself in lots of pain
No one else can really matter
No one can bring you back again
I remember how once I felt
When a man told me I had to die
I can’t believe in on one else
I’ll take each day, yer day by day
Yer for all I know I could be your fire
Yer for all I know I could be your man
Yer for all I know I could be your desire
Yer for all I know
Yer I could be your man
It’s time for revolution
It’s time to bring you back again
Shootin' for glory
Shootin' for providence
Just one more cigarette
Gonna pour myself another drink
I can’t believe in no one else
I’ll take each day, yer day by day
Yer for all I know I could be your fire
Yer for all I know I could be your man
Yer for all I know I could be your desire
Yer for all I know
Yer I could be your man
Yer for all I know I could be your desire
Yer for all I know I could be your man
Yer for all I know I could be in heaven
Yer for all I know
Yer I could be your man

Windswept
03:03

He broke down and cried
Yer all alone am I
That one fateful night
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
Father won’t you take my hand
Already took my soul
Will it ever rest
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
But it always seemed
Just a little too hard to bare
Never lost that feeling
Of lone despair
Even when I had it all
Never really cared
Bring on the setting sun
Let the clouds roll home
I can’t take no more
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
But it always seemed
Just a little too hard to bare
I never lost that feeling
Of lone despair
Even when I had it all
Never really cared
Bring on the setting sun
Let the clouds go home
Yeah I can’t take no more
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
On a windswept plain of uncertainty
But it always seemed
Just a little too hard to bare
I never lost that feeling
Of lone despair
Even when I had it all
Never really cared
I was outraged to turn the page
To find that it wasn’t there
That it wasn’t there
There
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh
Oooh ooh ooh
That it wasn’t there

Gimme your body
Gimme your mind
Open your heart
Yer pull down the blind
Gimme your love
Gimme me it all
Gimme me in the kitchen
Gimme in the hall
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
Gimme the readys
Ya gotta gimme the cash
Gimme a bullet
Gimme the smash
Gimme the silver
Gimme the gold
Make me a million
For when I get old
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
Money talks so listen to it
Money talks to me
Anyone can understand it
Money can't be beat, oh no
When you get down, down to the root
Don't give a damn don't give a hoot
Still gotta keep makin the loot
Chauffeur driven
Gotta make her quick as you can
Give her lovin' make you a man
Get her into the palm of your hand
Bread from heaven
Gimme the country
Where I can be free
Don't need no unions
Strangling me
Keep me in exile
The rest of my days
Burn me in hell
But as long as it pays
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
Art for arts sake
Money for gods sake
