LIFE OUT EAST LYRICS
BIRTH IS A PAIN FOR THE BABY TOO
sick and on the couch the ending plays out still the end is something new birth is a pain for the baby too birth is a pain for the baby too i thought you more profound i hear the trick is working out i hope it is enough for you birth is a pain for the baby too birth is a pain for the baby too EASY RIDER first is a hell of a burn next yr turn at the curb third and it's not a surprise taste the dry as ya open with the sun rise forth to the sign at the door fifth cause it's better than four sixth and i went through the list before putting my grabby hands right into the thing but i got a feeling that i left the fan on oh but expenses never change my mind it might haunt a lesser man but an easy rider like me is just going back to New York City looks like I'm in here a lot dry like a sink full of lies then evidentally mine dinner time in the cabin of the crucified eyes are thrown to the side forever alive remember the time, all night we stared at the fire but i got a feeling that i left the fan on oh but expenses never change my mind it might haunt a lesser man but an easy rider like me is just going back to New York City PANIC ATTACK How can I sing when the first three rows of the audience are throwing all these things at me? What all could they mean? If they want me to go I wish they would just say so Baby I can't breathe So I will sit here underneath this tree With a magazine And a couple hits of weed How can I sleep when the deity is throwing all these crazy fucking dreams at me What all does he mean? If God don't know I wish he would just say so Baby I can't breathe So I will sit here underneath this tree With a magazine And a couple hits of weed How can I fail when the proles and their arms are throwing all these loving glances at me swimmin in the sea If the tide won't go I wish it would let me know baby nothing gets grown at 4 a.m. under drunk thumbs and we go home alone BAD HERO i'm a bad hero i get lost in the mists i can never push and i can never pull the purpose of the anarchist i'm a bad hero i can't save the day got so drunk the planet turned slept in while the city burned and missed the whole parade one day we will one day we will decide one day we will leave the barlight i'm a bad hero don't you call my phone waiting for the reprimand i come to you with crippled hands, hide & stumble home i'm a bad hero i never save the girl cause i don't know what art is and i don't know what love is nor if they're in my world one day we will one day we will decide one day we will leave the barlight so decide CHEATER station is quiet, miles from the riots this is not my beautiful home, yes I know yes I know right place at the right time backstage at low tide we stay but they all go home, and she knows yes she knows but it was not a mistake pick up a thought and put it down babe tired try to ignore the news from town babe wired watch them scan the dials watch them try to

SILENT TREATMENT i'm glad i died cause that's what it's for ever since that night i enjoy my drugs more we're gonna jump at the same time split the air with a wide smile take a spin on the floor tile

getting dangerous i better feed myself something raw something raw so i can know it's ok, we're the same, i just wanted you to know GONE I always know what to do Never know quite what to say Tell me how you do it Tell me how not to scare it away The city was drunk and stumbling So I grabbed my guitar And I jumped off the roof and I swallowed a cab And was gone Deep in a dream I spotted you staring at me You and your pack of friends smoking out front At the bar across the street I knew it was you cause you were mad at me And perfect and turning me on But I stepped out of the night and into the bar And was gone Hey babe turn me on hey babe buy me a drink Or just fill me in, blow my mind If you think that that's what I need I look in your eyes and then just look away And it is not cowardice nor is it just today Whiseper directions, I'll follow along Clap your hands in the dark, I feel my way Along the wall I blinked for a second and it felt like I missed it all I THINK ABOUT IT Watchin TV don't do it for me anymore Sick of being sedentary sick of being poor Sick of being sold to sick of not kicking ass back Standing on the bridge in the rain at the time of the attack Yeah well I think about it I think about everything I think about it, sure Catch a little air all the time all of the time Sell me on your cigarettes sell me on your lies As soon as I sit down at the bar Drink to make it beautiful, drink to make it far away Yeah well I think about it I think about everything I think about it sure Here come the water, here come the cold days Everyone needs to have a reason just to go away I will march north to the baricades Try and get myself a little taste of what is to be saved Yeah well I think about it I think about everything I think about it I think about every, every I think about it, sure PAPER THIN WALLS i gotta send what i can't receive home i'd have it made were it not for these paper thin walls paper thin walls paper thin walls we understand it could all be breached though you would not believe what could pass through these paper thin walls paper thin walls paper thin walls QUEEN BEE This hot train stays and stays But no matter Start to the sound of your voice Mutating in my new joy I am evolution's bouncing baby boy Love is a river after a flood And after a flood, a river is love I can do anything now But I am shut up Days of your lips on my neck and oh my god well the love of a life like this ain't free but you make me believe yeah you make me believe in something better my queen bee sleep in skin wash dishes and stay awake shirtless here in the rain we stand ready I am a sight to behold Drunken in my old joy I am evolution's bouncing baby boy well the love of a life like this ain't free but you make me believe yeah you make me believe in something better my queen bee SMALL HANDS I can I can get away with it all now Your eyes are deep inside but I see em It's been A couple years since the war now I saved the days cause I knew I'd need em And this is it I have a mouth for you And you were there When he picked your world apart And you were there, small hands Yes you were there I am Drunk and high and I'm upstairs I am elegant with my small hands You wait And you separate and you call the kids away As the static turns to noise And this is it I have a mouth for you And you were there When he pushed your lips apart And you were there, small hands Yes you were there I am Revolution and I am dead But I've never felt better He will find you Far too big for such small hands Overgrown and screaming for weather And this is it I have a mouth for you And you were there When he pulled your legs apart And you were there, small hands Yes you were there And I will vouch for you NO WINGS I have always felt a kinship to the ground and its flaws Once a man who had nothin now a man of shovels and claws I never gave the air a chance that was just a lie But I have my own building now with its own sky No wings not here Not me don't need em People need change and ritalin And eyes on the door Pacing paths and grapes of wrath Newspapers and to watch the floor I rip up the asphalt I can not erode But I never lose a staring contest with well rested Phone rings car horn screams Not me I'm undefeated No wings not here not me don't need em Birds in trees are omens watching now the rise in my blood They sing or scream or dive attack depending on The end result They don't have to sing especially not for me I have my own head and it has its own symphony Long gestating Now completed No wings etc TELL THE WIND You say you might You say it's just pride You say it's on fire You say you don't mind So tell the wind You say all right You say it's inside You say FINE You say you don't mind So tell the wind And quiet doesn't even describe it And tired doesn't even describe it So tell the wind And she did But she couldn't describe it Tell the wind CODY, YR BREAKING MY HEART i met you at dusk you were
