1. Funny Words
somedays i smell the stench of the day
pull the skin from my face
no regrets i don't see in their disgrace
i don't want to see it all my way
give me the key to unlock my fate
i don't want to see it
i don't want to see it
funny words they pass me by
my head it rolls into the sky
tell me something i don't know
the preacher said that he may die
funny words they pass me by
my head it rolls into the sky
tell me something i don't know
the teacher said that she could fly
they're always so blatent
when there´s something to cry about
pull my hand from my head
the pain ruins me
like the sweets that took my teeth away
i don't want to see it all my way
give me the key to unlock my fate
i don't want to see it
i don't want to see it
funny words they pass me by
my head it rolls into the sky
tell me something i don't know
the preacher said that he may die
funny words they pass me by
my head it rolls into the sky
tell me something i don't know
the teacher said that she could fly
i don't want to see it
i don't want to see it
funny words they pass me by
my head it rolls into the sky
tell me something i don't know
the preacher said that he may die
funny words they pass me by
my head it rolls into the sky
tell me something i don't know
the teacher said that she may fly
the preacher said that he may fly
he may die
he may fly
2. Light of Day
dangerous feelings flowing through his veins
the picture's getting clearer
the truth starts to stain
no more living for nothing
you break your back just to get through the day
the time has come for him to face the day
darkness hides away fear
lick the wound and pray
too many days running naked
for all mankind
into the light of day
into the light of day
patience always leaves him so uptight
soon the master speaks
his voice strong with delight
no more living for nothing
his pain is still digging away
reaching out he tries to change the game
into the light of day
into the light of day
something came into his life
and told him they were wrong
never trust the higher paid
cause they´re the worst of all
day and night they move so slow
the end is what i fear
hate is just another pain
and pain's a friend of mine
get him something, he's lonely
screaming voices they pray
he sees the light of the lonely
for all mankind
into the light of day
into the light of day
3. Change
you can take my soul
and you can rape my mind
play the starring role
so thick with fright
you can smash it all
for your own delight
and you can sell it all
for a ticket out of here
you need change
in your life
let the game begin
for this blatent sin
money talks for sure
in a world so poor
you need change
in your life, in your life
you need change
but, they want to get you everything that you need
and they wanna...
you can change your rhyme
so it flows with mine
broken thought's your crime
dream away, dream away
you could steal a gun
maybe shot someone
broken thought's your crime
yes, i hate to see you smile
you need change
in your life, in your life
you need change
but, they want to get you everything that you need
and they want to slice all your pride
but you are ready for this crime
you need change
you need change in your life
you need change
you need change in your life
you could steal a gun
maybe shot someone
broken thought's your crime
yes, i hate to see you smile
they want to get you everything that you need
and they want to slice all your pride
but you are ready for this crime
change
in your life, in your life
you need change
but, they want to get you everything that you need
and they want to CHANGE YOU !!!
4. Yesterdays
One man sits with his head hung low
Nowhere to run, got no place to go
There was a time when his town held homes
Now it’s trash and broken homes
Every day, haulin’ off the dead
So many scenes flashin’ through his head
A little kid had to ask me “why”
Should I laugh? Maybe I’ll just cry
So many folks tune in the living hell
They wanna know where the bombs just fell
Your TV screens show them crashing down
Can you see the lights? Can you hear the sound?
Guess the times have got the best of me
What the hell is this supposed to prove
they don’t want to feel this misery
Hear ‘em screaming and they dare not move
Guess the times have got the best of me
Has there got to be a single bullet
Put it right up to my head
Half a chance you know that I would use it
Guess the times have got the best of me
What the hell is this supposed to prove
they don’t want to feel this misery
Hear ‘em screaming and they dare not move
Guess the times have got the best of me
Has there got to be a single bullet
They don’t want to fell this misery
Remember yesterday, oh yesterday
One man sits with his cigarettes
Drinks his gin like his own regrets
5. Two Hours
Got to face this morning
Put a bag over my head
Won’t you take a long walk with me
I’m lonely, feeling scared
I’ve got two hours
To justify my time
Never saw it coming
Did what any man would do
Now I can’t get out so easy
They will never know the truth
I’ve got two hours
To justify my time
Just two hours
To make the devil run
I’ve done all my trying
Someone above, someone above…
Anyone
Just two hours
To justify my time
Just two hours
To make the devil run
I’ve done all my trying
I know that I will make the papers
But I’m an innocent man
In the same situation, I’m sure
You would feel the same
Cause I’m not guilty
So listen…
Just Two Hours
To justify my time
Just two hours
To make the devil run
I’ve done all my trying
Two hours
Now my day is done
6. Something I Said
So many people, they feel the hate
So many problems get in the way
So if you’re asking, the time is right
To quit our worries and break your lies
You keep on looking for another fight
Is it something I said or something I did?
You keep on looking for another time, another place
Is it something I said or something I did?
I hear them talking, what do thy say?
I see them moving, no place to stay
But can we help them, that’s how it is
Misunderstanding won’t help a bit
You keep on looking for another fight
Is it something I said or something I did?
You keep on looking for another time, another place
Is it something I said or something I did?
You keep on looking for another fight
Is it something I said or something I did?
You keep on looking for another time, another place
Is it something I said or something I did?
Too many people, what do they pray?
When all the people get blown away
So if you’re asking, there comes a time
You’d better worry, things just ain’t
Fine, fine, fine
You keep on looking for another fight
Is it something I said or something I did?
You keep on moving to the other side
You keep on looking for another time, another place
Something I said
Something they said
Something I said
Something I did
7. Only the Good
Why am I so frustrated?
Do we live such fragile lives?
It seems I’m only waiting
For my soul to breath again
It’s been so long since I felt this cold
24 years in the making
it makes no sense to suffer
or to find a remedy
only the good die young
only the good die young
blinded by my anger, I’ve been stolen by my pain
to justify the reasons and to justify what’s been
I wondered now live I’ve wondered then
A feeling I’ve been cheated
So then I feel my soul cry out
Should I find a remedy?
only the good die young
only the good die young
calling out for a life
calling out for a better day
calling out for a celebration
everything seems good
8. 20th Century Boy
friends say it’s fine
friends say it’s good
everybody say it’s just like rock’n’roll

sting like a bee
babe, I wanna be your man
well it’s plain to see
you were meant for me
I’m your boy, your 20th century boy
friends say it’s fine
friends say it’s good

drive like a car
walk like an ant
babe, I wanna be your man
well it’s plain to see
you were meant for me
I’m your boy, your 20th century boy
20th century boy
I wanna be your boy
20th century boy

friends say it’s fine
friends say it’s good
everybody say it’s just like Robin Hood

I’m your boy, your 20th century boy
20th century boy
I wanna be your boy
20th century boy

9. Queen Bee
Done my time I’m guilty of nothing
My fighting days are over
Faces names they change so fast
Come on Lord I feel much stronger
Too many days just wasting my time
Thinking that I was wrong
Lady, I’m not the kind to get stuck in the mud
Queen bee
Are you telling me that you’re lonely
Queen bee
Well you got b out of your mind
Queen bee
Got to believe what you tell me
Queen bee
Won’t you let me out of your hive
For the last time
You ain’t a friend of mine, no
I’ve tasted the gutter like a peace of meat
That you chewed and spit away
I can’t believe that I witness your greed
I’m stronger by the day
Lord have mercy on this pitiful soul
It never should be this way
Lady, I’m not the kind to get stuck in the mude
Queen bee
Are you telling me that you’re lonely
Queen bee
Well you got b out of your mind
Queen bee
Got to believe what you tell me
Queen bee
Won’t you let me out of your hive
For the last time
I’ve tasted the gutter like a peace of meat
That you chewed and spit away
I can’t believe that I witness your greed
I’m stronger by the day
You can break down the door
You can drill into my mind
You can run me into the ground
Now I wonder that I’m stronger, wonder
Now I’m stronger
Stronger
Queen bee
Are you telling me that you’re lonely
Queen bee
Well you got b out of your mind
Queen bee
Got to believe what you tell me
Queen bee
Won’t you let me out of your hive
For the last time
You ain’t a friend of mine
A friend of mine, a friend of mine…
10. Stretch the Truth
Making promises I just can’t keep
Breaking loose I pray to sleep
Friends they run and then they hide
You could never know the weight is real
When you talk do you hear your lies?
No, I never realized
Do you think that you could change?
I dream away, I dream away
Stretch the truth and roll your eyes
Blind man’s bluff was always my disguise
But I don’t care
Aching bones they paralize
Watching friends they victimise
Get the gun and pull my trigger
Poisoned thoughts help feed my desire
When you talk do you hear your lies?
No, I never realized
Do you think that you could change?
I dream away, I dream away
Stretch the truth and roll your eyes
Blind man’s bluff was always my disguise
I dream away, I dream away
I dream away, I dream away
Stretch the truth and roll your eyes
Blind man’s bluff was always my disguise
I dream away, I dream away…
11. New Control
Take this hand
And get back to the ground
Feel the life
Running through your hands
Don’t know when tomorrow comes
Not sure where I should be
Don’t know when tomorrow comes
But I live my life
Cause I need my destiny
Break the land
And peel away the life
Steel the greed
Maybe God will help win the fight
Don’t know when tomorrow comes
Not sure where I should be
Don’t know when tomorrow comes
But I live my life
Cause I need my destiny
Take my hand
I’ll lead you to the place
I will make a start
I will play a part
Don’t know when tomorrow comes
Not sure where I should be
Don’t know when tomorrow comes
Not sure where I should be
Don’t know when tomorrow comes
But I live my life
Cause I need my destiny
We need a new control
So people know the score
We need it to bite in everyone
Like a BUG
12. Freakshow
Cold thoughts unite
Got the feeling the bug is screaming
She’s got Asia on hear mind
He is trying to get her high
The sun can’t shine
The light that you’ve looking for
Stories from her friends
Of a world where people care
Share the last peace of bread with the suffering
Carry the scare until you die
The sun can’t shine
The light that you’ve looking for
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
She takes a blow back from her father
He tries to make her high
More than this daughter, his lover
Dangerous feelings fly
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
The sun can’t shine
The light that you’ve looking for
Break free from this cage
If that’s what you’re looking for
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
Looking for a place to hide
Looking for a place to hide
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
FREAKSHOW JUST A FREAKSHOW
She takes a blow back from her father
He tries to make her high
More than this daughter, his lover
Dangerous feelings fly
FLY
