Violent Femmes Lyrics
New Times Lyrics
Don't Start Me on the Liquor Lyrics
Don't start me on the liquor
I'll drink it all down straight
I'll make a toast to love
But I drink the most
When I got somebody to hate
CHORUS
I'm an old man
I got an old man's pain
Will the morning
Will the morning ever come again
Well, I'm likin' lickin' a lotta liquor
I'm drinkin' down the drink
I'll take a toast to life
But I drink the most
When my devil start to thing
CHORUS
Oh, I could drink, drink, drink
So I can't think, think, think
I got a hope or a home
In this life I'm all alone
On this long cold lonely night of fright
Followed by a lonely day
'Til there's nothing left I can say
Except I didn't know I was sick
And so I got sicker
He's a low down lying
Peckerwood cotton picker
Don't start me on the liquor
I got nothing more to say
I had a little money
But it all flown away
And I said oh man
Oh, ain't that a shame
Oh, I keep moanin', I keep moanin'
Like I got an old man's pain
Don't
Don't start
Don't start me
Don't start me on
Don't start me on the
Don't start me on the liquor
New Times Lyrics
New times, new times, new times
Good morning, good morning, good morning
I'm the guard
At one time this was rather pleasant
The poets they still had to muse
Over the classicism of clean shoes
But who today still knows a button stick
CHORUS
Well, that's the new times
That's the new times
That's the new times
The girls would lie down before us
First one went dancing, then behind the bushes
Today you have to run through twenty places
Get drunk on saccharin and methyl
And then you still don't get them that far
CHORUS
Now take it easy there in the early morning
If somewhere there lies a cadaver
Or something is foul in the state
You can be sure that a writer is not far behind
With his Excellency I only say
Hands off literature
The laurel wreath one gets today
Second hand so to speak
>From the Empire's stores
Sold underhand at the Alexanderplatz
With all the wigs and costumes
Twitching from the shoulder one is informed
CHORUS
New times, new times, new times
Breakin' Up Lyrics
Now every once in a while
There's a crack in my smile
Dark voices are talking to me
Dark voices tell me the way
It's suppose to be
They said, "Breakin' up."
They said, "It's hard to do."
Y'know it's just not true
CHORUS
Breakin' up, it's easy to do
Breakin' up, it's easy to do
Why if you know
Why did you have to go
And leave me on the floor
About as sick as a dog
I'm feeding my face
Like a bleary-eyed hog
When it's just begun
Why'd it have to stop
With so much good undone
CHORUS
Y'know I break up every time
I break up with you
Key of 2 Lyrics
Well I was sentenced to prison
To do about one year
They said it isn't so bad
We got a good band here
We play every Wednesday night
Sometimes Tuesday too
It's the music of the future and it will get to you
When I heard the band for the first time
They had no (rhythm), they had no (rhyme)
Well it was almost like a dream
I never wanted to have
It drove me (crazy), it drove me (mad)
The man said: "C'mon and play
And here's an instrument for you
It's an ancient flute
It's in the key of 2. Blow..."
I gotta get more time, I gotta stay in here
I used to be foggy
But the music made me clear
Now the jail is rockin' like Elvis never knew
I'm on the inside now, I'm in the key of 2
Now we all are lifers and I'm in the band too
We play my favorite song, it's in the key of 2
And it will get to you
It's the music of the future and it will get to you
And it will get to you
It's the music of the future, it's in the key of 2
4 Seasons Lyrics
How will I stand the summer
When spring was such a bummber
How will I weather my winter
When my fall was such a ballbuster
It's spring and there'll be no spring fling
When my winter was what a winner
And I am taking a fall
'Cause if I ain't got you I got nothing at all
How will I stand the summer
When the spring just made me dumber
How will I fare my fall
Will I lose my mind in the wintertime
It's spring and I'm a spring ding-a-ling
It's summer and I'm just a little dumber
And I am taking a fall
'Cause if I ain't got you I got nothing at all
Through the four seasons
I'm searching for reasons
I'm not gonna take the spring
'Cause the spring don't mean a thing
I'm not gonna take the winter
My winter is a splinter
I'm not gonna take the summer
Summer is such a bummer
But I am taking the fall
'Cause if I ain't got you I got nothing at all
Through the four seasons
I'm searching for reasons
Vivaldi, the Four Seasons
It seems to me to be a theme of love
With no variations of aggravations
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
If I ain't got you I got nothing at all
Machine Lyrics
I got a machine
And I took over the world
In one weekend
I took over the world
With my machine
I did it because
I was looking for a project
And it was either
Take over the world or learn French
So I took over the world
And next weekend
I can learn French
I got a machine
And I took over the world
But nothing chanaged
That wouldn't be fair
I'm Nothing Lyrics
I-M N-O-T-H-I-N-G
I-M N-O-T-H-I-N-G
CHORUS
I'm nothin'
I'm nothin'
Are you a Republican or a Democrat
A liberal fascist full of crap
CHORUS
Somebody somewhere might be something
But everybody everywhere
Knows that I'm nothing
Politics and dirty tricks
I got no time for stones and sticks
Politics and dirty dricks
I got no time I'm chasing chicks
CHORUS
Somebody somwhere might be something
But everybody everywhere
Knows that I'm nothing
I'm nothing but I'm not proud
'Cause being nothing it's not allowed
Are you a gay or are you straight
Do you believe in love
Or do you believein hate
CHORUS
Somebody somewhere said he was something
But to everybody everywhere
I'm saying I'm nothing
I'm nothing, I'm like a cloud
I'm free to be alone in a crowd
What's your reality, it's not real to me
What's your anomaly, it is my destiny
I-M N-O-T-H-I-N-G
I-M N-O-T-H-I-N-G
I'm nothin'
Nothin'
Nothin'
I'm nothing now and I'll be nothing when
This nothing world has its nothing end
When Everybody's Happy Lyrics
Can you imagine
The world at peace
What would it be like
Can you imagine
Such harmony
And what will happen
When everybody's happy
But me
Can you imagine
This headache I have
Writing this song
Can you imagine
The storm inside
ANd the quiet
When everybody's happy
But me
I think that I would really
Like to love
Give and receive
I pray that my spirit
May rise above
And I'll live a good life
When everybody's happy
But me
Agamemnon Lyrics
The telephone, the telephone
I have an idea
Women always have ideas
Hello...
CHORUS
Here is Agamennon
here is
What? Wrong connection
This is...
I am a moralist
An anti-militarist
I am against duels
I cannot stand seeing
A fly in a rage
I cannot look at
A uniform or blood
That woman has seduced me
And now I am done for
Darling, where shall I
Hide you in a hurry?
CHORUS
I am coming
Directly from the trenches
And look forward
To a solemn luncheon
Oh, my nerves
I'm losing my mind
This damned telephone
Spoils my favorite position
And now I can start
Writing poetry again
This Island Life Lyrics
This tea's too strong for me
As I await your company
I had too much sun today
Ocean waters wash away
Nothing but the present
Presenting its presence
This island life
Separate my right from my wrong
No I am not pagan
But my heart has been forsaken
And the hand of God was on my mind
It took some time from time to time
Now in the course I know
Time itself will go when
This island life
Separates my right from my wrong
You forget your shoes and I
I have sent a message but I
There's so many stars in the sky
It's the truths that will not lie
There's a young wild native maiden
Running mad and barefoot to the sea until
This island life
Separates my rights from my wrongs
This island life
Finally separates my right from my wrong
This tea's too strong for me
As I await more company
I had too much sun today
Dream of lands lying far away
Pregnant with the present
Presenting its presents
This island life
Separate my right from my wrong
The island life
Will separate my rights from my songs
Separate my right from my wrong
I Saw You in the Crowd Lyrics
I saw you in the crowd
I saw you singing out loud
The people were swaying
The band was palying
Something real loud
I couldn't hear one word
Screams were all that I heard
But I saw her face
I saw her eyes
I saw His grace
In the dark'ning skies
I saw you raise your hand
Stretching out to the band
Your reach exceeding your grasp
On the beach from the whale
Comes one last gasp
Meet me in my hotel room
Meet me just for fun
And I will not be boring
Some things I been storing
Inside to show someone like you
A few friends just stopped by
I think they wanted to get high
But it wasn't you
Who they led me to
So I bid them all goodbye
I probably would forget
The episode of regret
So I write this song
So when you sing along
I hope my message you will get
Meet me in my hotel room
Oh, meet me just for fun
And you will not be boring
Some thing you been storing
Inside to show someone like me
Mirror Mirror (I See a Damsel) Lyrics
I see a damsel
In danger and distress
I see that she is pretty
I see a young girl
Dressed in a dirty dress
I see that she is pretty
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest one of all
I see a fat girl
With her hair in a mess
I see that she is pretty
I see a proud girl
She's pregnant I would guess
I see that she is pretty
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest one of all
Mirror mirror do not fail
Who deserves to go to jail
I see the school girls
Dressed in their Sunday best
I see that they are pretty
I see the wagon trains
Of pioneer women heading west
I see that they are pretty
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest one of all
Creature creature, here the plan
Leads unto the Fall of Man
I see a matron
Unbuttoning a tightly fitting dress
I see that she is pretty
I see a maiden
She's careless like all the rest
I see that she is pretty
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest one of all
Mirror mirror do not fail
Who deserves to go to jail
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the prettiest one of all
Mirror mirror humor me
Do they see what I see
Jesus of Rio Lyrics
Christ the Redeemer towering high over Rio
Rio de Janeiro, Rio
Where they held a summit to save the world
And to mark the time when develpment
As traditionally understood-had failed
And the affluent North raping the South
Investment from the North means
Economic bondage for the South
Under the burden of debt payments
I was with a whore in Copenhagen
Drinking eight hundred dollars worth of
Champagne in kroner
She came from Rio
We were trying to save the world
We did not get what we wanted
She wanted money
She did not get what she wanted
I missed my wife
I did not get what I wanted
Death sat on my lap
Death sits on all our laps
While Christ the Redeemer
Towers high over Rio
Rio de Janeiro, Rio
