It's Not Alright I said "All Right!" All right, I said all right... I'm tired--I'm really tired
Day After Day Same old stuff
You Don't Say Your house is nicely furnished, nice bedroom I just don't--don't want to stay
Not Too Sure Another locked door and I can't react So how are things on the party circuit? Going to strange houses and stranger parties
Take 2 (Individuality) Individuality
Don't Pull Me Under I go to my bed and I started to dream Please don't pull me under I push my cart through the food store Gotta get out. Ahhh, gotta get out. Too much heartbreak, too much pain I go to my bed and I started to dream
Old Lady Sloan (words by William Burroughs, music by Micronotz)
They've Got It All Perfect people on the street They got the luxury of a good life T.V. guides go in my trash can
Shopping Spree Gonna meet her in the park Now I got a new lady
Daydream Sun from the window starts up my head Sitting in the classroom staring at the empty faces
The Police Song A little old fashioned American fun
Song 16
Blonde-Haired Ghost She caught my eye near the food stand
Let it Out Hangin' from pine trees by my knees
All Right--all right...
I said "All Right!"
But it's not all right
I'm tired--I'm really tired
I'm tired of being attacked
I'm tired of fighting back
I'm tired--I'm really tired
I'm all tired and run down
My ears are hurting, there's too much sound
I've been pushed around, I'll admit
Been worn to a shadow, I tell you I'm sick of it!
Sick of it, I'm sick of it!
But it's not all right
I'm tired--I'm so damn tired
I'm tired of being called strange
I'm tired of being asked to change
I'm tired--I'm really tired!
I feel like my head's full of jelly
I gotta big pain in my belly, belly, belly!
I feel stuck, stuck in a pit
I gotta get out, tell ya I'm sick of it!
Sick of it, I'm sick of it!
I'm tired of being attacked
I'm tired of fighting back
I'm tired--I'm really tired
I feel all tired and run down
My ears are hurting, there's too much sound
I've been stuck, stuck in a pit
I gotta get out, I tell you I'm sick of it!
Sick of it, I'm sick of it!
I get up in the morning and I stare at my face
I take out a brush and stare at my face
I comb my hair and I look in my eyes
My life's kind of dull and I wanna know why...why...
I put on my shoes and I put on my socks
My shoes hurt so I pull out a rock
I drink my juice and I eat my toast
Why I can't I live my life to the utter--utttermost?
Same old stuff
Same old stuff
Same old stuff!
Same old stuff--day after day, I get so lonely for life
Day after day, I get so lonely for life...
Life!
I clear my eyes and I clear my throat
I put on my old blue torn up coat
I sit on the steps and I wait for my ride
My restlessness I just can't hide!
Same old stuff
Same old stuff
Same old stuff!
You've captured my voice, so I'll just have to pay
I hear you talkin' but I don't want to stay
I'm just saying stuff that's in the air
I struggle to finish but you couldn't care
You couldn't care
I just don't want to stay
I just don't want to stay
I just don't want to stay
Pleasant floral patterns, just not enough gloom
Not enough gloom
You've captured my voice, so I'll just have to pay
I hear you talking but I don't want to stay
Don't want to stay
I just don't want to say
I just don't want to say
I just don't want to say
I just don't--don't want to say
Don't want to say...
So how are things on the party circuit?
Tell me, tell me I want to know
How's it feel to be so with it
Being cool wherever you go
Tell me about your social circle
Gossiping behind their backs
Won't you point out the beautiful people?
Another locked door and I can't react
I just can't react
And I can't react...
And I can't react...
I just can't react!
Tell me, tell me I want to know
How's it feel to be so with it
Being cool wherever you go
Where you go
People ask about what they can't see
I just sit on the sofa and grin
They ask me why do you act so insecure?
I struggle to reply; I say I'm not too sure
I'm not too sure
And I'm not too sure...
And I'm not too sure...
They ask me why do you act so insecure?
I struggle to reply; I say I'm not too sure
I'm not too sure.
They criticize me
But I don't care
I will be me
So let them stare
Individuality
I don't wear $40 jeans
No alligator on my shirt
I will be me
And I won't be a fake
I won't be a fake
Individuality
I won't be a fake...
I won't be a fake...
Won't be a fake...
I won't be a fake...
Individuality
They all want to be the same
Afraid of the big game
The game of yourself
Your own self
Individuality.
I push my cart through the food store
Fat ladies walk through mechanical doors
I look at all the people on the boxes and cans
I felt trapped before it all began
Before it began
My head's full of women who are really supreme
My back aches and I wake up cold
Lifetime trap
gotta get out before I get old
Before I get old
Too much heartbreak, too much pain
Too much stress and too much strain
Too much heartbreak, too much pain
Too much stress and too much strain
Please don't pull me under
Fat ladies walk through mechanical doors
I look at all the people on the boxes and cans
I felt trapped before it all began
Before it began.
Too much stress and too much strain
Too much heartbreak, too much pain
Too much stress and too much strain
My head's full of women who are really supreme
My back aches and I wake up cold
Lifetime trap
gotta get out before I get old
Before I get old
Old Lady Sloan chewing on the bone
Chewing on the bone of her child
Old Lady Sloan so thick and fat
Old Lady Sloan she purrs like a cat
For Old Lady Sloan she likes her chow
She's burping up baby
like a happy old sow
Old Lady Sloan chewing on the bone
Chewing on the bone of her child
Old Lady Sloan she went hog wild
Old Lady Sloan she's butchered her child
She stuffed him with apples, mince meat and fig
Oh, like a fat little pig,
like a fat little pig
Old Lady Sloan drool crunch WOW!
Old Lady Sloan how was your chow?
Where is the child you eted like a sow?
Old Lady Sloan somebody dialed
Old Lady Sloan where is the child?
Corpus delecti delightful delovely
Officer you're all cute and cuddly
You're cute and you're cuddly
Old Lady Sloan drool crunch WOW!
Faces from the T.V. strike my face
They're all rich they're one race
They got the luxury of a good life
Got two cars got a pretty wife
They've got it all!
They're always so damn complete
Beautiful people-he and she
Yankee doodle, nice country
They've got it all!
They've got everything I don't want!
I don't want it!
Got two cars got a pretty wife
They've got it all!
Women on the air so thin and tan
They got the luxuries of a good life!
My baby took me on a shopping spree
I was really in agony
She's gonna be another casualty
If she don't leave me be--
If she don't leave me be!
Gonna meet her after dark
She's gonna think it's all over
Fine, she'll see, the end she'll see!
I was really quite happy
Today my baby said to me,
Let's go on a shopping spree, shopping spree!
Sitting in the classroom staring at the empty faces
Teacher's talking about some long forgotten places
People sitting and thinking about the life they could lead
People sitting and thinking about what they need
Thinking and dreaming I walk in my head
People sitting and thinking about the life they could lead
People sitting and dreaming about what they want
About...
About...
What they need...
What they need...
I pray, pray every day, for a daydream.
Well I pray every day, for a daydream.
Well I pray today, for a daydream.
Rain hits the ground and makes the strangest sound
Staring out the window I feel so lonely
People sitting and thinking about the life they could lead
People sitting and thinking about what they need
About...
About...
What they need...
What they need...
Teacher's talking about some long forgotten places
People sitting and thinking about the life they could lead
People sitting and thinking about what they need
About...
About...
What they need...
What they need.
A little old fashioned American fun
Never never never hurt no one
Beating on kids with big black sticks
That's how we get our kicks
That's why we say-Support your local police force
We drive around in big mean cars
We hate kids with electric guitars
When people see us coming they really flip
It's the ultimate, ultimate macho trip
Egotistical maniacs
With their long black guns
And funny blue slacks
Egotistical maniacs
I wish someone would get them off our backs
Never never never hurt no one
Beating on kids with big black sticks
That's how we get our kicks
That's why we say-Support your local police force
And that's why we say-Support your local police force--police force.
I'm sixteen
And I'm bored
C'mon gimme something to do
Looking back on my life you'd think I was crazy
Let me set the record straight: I'm just plain lazy
Well c'mon-give me some akshun
C'mon-give me something to do
Give me something
Give me something to do!
Everybody's telling me I'd better do something fast
If this is all there is to life I hope it doesn't last
Well c'mon-give me some akshun
C'mon-give me something to do
Give me something
Give me something to do!
Something to do!
Looking back on my life you'd think I was crazy
Let me set the record straight: I'm just plain lazy
Well c'mon-give me some akshun
C'mon-give me something to do
Give me something
Give me something to do!
She caught my eye near the food stand
I said to myself I'm at your command
Nothing about her to improve
She sang this tune as she moved: "Chocolate igloos under the sun, Cement hotdog on my bun
You can't touch me I can't feel
Hey man, I'm not for real"
Her deep brown eyes were so radiant
I think I'm stuck on her for permanent
Love at first sight-Is that wrong?
Can't stop thinking about her and her song:
"Chocolate igloos under the sun, Cement hotdog on my bun
You can't touch me I can't feel
Hey man, I'm not for real"
I said to myself I'm at your command
Nothing about her to improve
She sang this tune as she moved, as she moved....
No parking by the sewer sign
Hot dog, my razor broke
Water dripping up the spout
But I don't care
Let it all hang out!
Let it all hang out!
Let it all hang out!
Sun shines through the shade
Nobody knows what it's all about
It's too much man, let it all hang out
Let it all hang out!
Let it all hang out!
Sleep all day, drive all night, TV's on the blink
Made Galileo look like a Boy Scout, sorry 'bout that, let it all hang out! Let it all hang out!
Let it all hang out!
Let it all hang out!
