Wave Motion Gun
You had a year
now there's 12 days left to save the Earth
let's get out of here
and we're stuck out in space in a battleship
Derek Wildstar where are you
we've got some work for you to do
there's no time to fuck around
save it 'till you're back here on the ground
And you better buckle down
the Comet Empire's closing in
and you better hurry back
before they attack again
you're our only hope
since the damage has begun
you and that goddamn wave motion gun
The Gamilons raging full on
have turned the Earth into a mess
your brother's dead your family's gone
who are you trying to impress
Farm Song
Hey I heard you got back today
everybody's got something to say
how did it go and where have you gone
Oo come on come on
Well it's not that great
and it's not that fun
it's just a bunch of bored kids
acting really dumb
it's not the life for everyone/anyone
Oo I heard it got back from you
everybody's got nothing to do
I wanna play rock but nobody's home
Oo come on come on
Hey I heard you got back today
everybody's got something to say
I wanna play rock but nobody's home
Oo come on come on
When to Quit
Once upon a time
it was much better than today
when did it become a crime
to know exactly what to say
And you say that's how it goes
things get old and rust like tin
now I'm stuck outside your inside jokes
please don't let me in
And I want more out of life than stupid jokes
come on pal, tell me now
exactly where to go
and I think it's about time that you admit
you don't know when to quit
Listen to the sound
of me telling you you're wrong
drove it into the ground
and drug it out for far too long
And you can deny it's true
and ignore the subtle clues
but I don't know what I'd do
without the stupid things I do
So fucked 'cause I don't know either
Johnny Be Not So Good
Meghan says I've got a brand new toy
something to watch
and something you'll enjoy
a woman you've never seen
and a man that you know
grainy video tapes
of an old time rock and roller
And when he dies they'll talk about him
saying he was a very bad man
and if you stop to think about it
what would you say...he's a very bad man
I've always known that folks did stuff like this
but watching Johnny not be so good
kind of made me sick
after meeting a hundred punkers
who thought it was a gas
I'm starting to think he's funny
and his kinks they make me laugh
Bad Year
I don't need this anymore
the curse of '94 strikes again
killing hopes and things and people
stop, stop you're killing me
and I tried so desperately to escape it
suck days ahead I think I'll stay in bed
Life's the same
I guess everything's going okay
I've got to go now
I've run out of cute things to say
I don't mean to sound so insincere
I'm having a bad year
And I'm glad to say goodbye
but I'll never wonder why this year happened
luck comes and goes sooner or later
wait, wait for it to stop
'cause I'm not just gonna drop out of being
for one bad year that was just leaving
Rehashed
Feel I should apologize
is it pretentious in your eyes
to think you want to hear our band
hope you care or even understand
And you can throw it out if there is no doubt
you've heard this song before
I'm not gonna care about it anymore
If there's nothing new
can I copy you
steal a song or two
borrowed line here and there
they were never mine why should I care
and if it's all been done
then we're on our way
with a bullet straight to number one
'cause we stole the hits
we may not be artists but at least we're not
Dumb old songs that we abused
ignorance is such a lame excuse
but I didn't know what I'd got into
I was only 12 and it seemed like the thing to do
That's all it was
nothing more than something fun to do
I'm sorry if you're disappointed in the truth
Snowcone
While the snow comes down at Rachel's house
watching big time wrestling videos
I said, "are these guys really doing this?"
she asked me was I serious
And would you like to have a beer
or a glass of hot tea
we'll talk about life
while we're watching T.V.
And it gets cold...
While the snow comes down at Rachel's house
and the cat keeps trying to get out
because the mice are playing out in the yard
and keeping kitty cat cool is getting hard
While the snow comes down at Rachel's house
and the view outside it leaves no doubt
that driving home is going to be rough
with all that snow and ice and stuff
And so we say, "good night, good night,
I can drive, I'll be alright"
I stepped into a snowy night
turn around, my arms held wide, I drove home
Little Star
You shine brightly in my sky
with me while the nights go by
catch a comet by the tail
if he hollers go to jail
I had a spider monkey and his name was Bob
he had a nice smile and I liked him a lot
but he was nothing next to you
'cause you're my little star and you shine through
You're my little star
my star, my little star
Thunder, lightning, sunshine, rain
when will I to see you again
(It should be "when will we two meet again"
but Ean blew it)
find a little lovers' lair
name the time and I'll be there
The Juice is Loose
Do you read me
this is headquarters
and soon you'll be free
we got commandos on the way
so just sit tight, OJ
Sitting around Sunday morning
thinking how lame it is
the Juice is stuck in jail
when he's obviously innocent
we've got choppers and uzis
and a hit new theme song
LA county jail can't be that strong
Choppers on the roof
and commandos down the hall
OJ's private jailers up against the wall
a laser to cut the bars
and hand the Juice a gun
stand back boys
and watch THE MAN run
Who Owes
When I heard he was accused
read the story in the news
and I said it was a lie
He's not the kind of person to
but then again neither are you
I know the what where when and how
but why...and who owes who
All these years that I thought
you owed me one
now the memory of it all
suddenly changed
as if that was not enough
wonder if I remind you of
and exactly who it was
that was estranged
Then you left, disappeared
from the memories you feared
escape is what you chose
and all I want to know is who owes
Never knew, yeah, I didn't have a clue
no surprise look at the size
of my little world
but you never said a thing
or I wasn't listening
I don't have time to pay attention to a girl
Mom
She's got eyes in the back of her head
and while you'll never find a page
of the books she hasn't read
she says she's got her eyes on me
knows what I'm going to be
She's my mother, bore my brother
I am her son
Love thy mother like no other
bear the weight of the son
She's got a slice of the half moon
caught in her eye
What's On (Note: This song features Josh on Bass and Ean on Drums)
It's a crystal clear defining point
when I'm out of here
and you're out of joint
and it's gotten way off track
so far it's never coming back
and no markers here to compensate
for the way the trail just dissipates
And I go to sleep
when you want to talk
if I don't compare I'll just sit and stare
when you strip everything away
and all you see is what's on
and what you see is what you get
Find it hard to believe
what you're sure is real
and can you describe the way you feel
exactly at this time
pin the tail, turn it on a dime
do you love the strong and silent boys
keep to themselves
selfish with their toys
And although I know
that's not what you planned
what's so hard to understand
when you strip everything away
and all you see is what's on T.V.
Weasel of Doom/Lady '95
He'll get in your BRAIN
he'll drive you INSANE
