Parting Ways (alt. lyrics) ||
The Part Where I Play the Pope||
Patriot
Piece of Crap||
Poor Girl||
Price of Pain
Strang another man...
And a picture of a picture...
This is the part where I play...I play the pope...
Feed the people...love the people...
You don't meet the people...God gave the people bread...
Be careful with your brother...
And the rivers shall open for the righteous...
I was walking with my brother,
I am a patriot, and I love my country,
I was walking with my girlfriend.
I am a patriot, and I love my country,
And I ain't no communist,
I am a patriot, and I love my country,
And the rivers shall open for the righteous,
Tried to save the trees, bought a plastic bag.
Wanted an LP, only had CD's.
Bought myself a car, thought it'd take me far.
Got it from my friend, on him you can depend.
I'm trying to save the trees, I saw it on TV.
Picked up a magazine to read about the scene.
I went back to the store, they gave me four more.
[Additional verses:]
Bought it on a tin, bought it on a phone.
Wanted my mtv, holy no me.
You sat at home, the windows tinted black.
When you fell out, out of starlight
Poor little girl, ran away for good.
When you ran out, out of place, so tell you,
Poor little girl, ran away for good.
Parting Ways (alt. lyrics) [Barcelona
soundcheck 1996]
I will move into...try to move...
And they'll soon be parting ways...
The Part Where I Play the Pope [Improv]
The people got to live, the people got to breathe...every day...
Leave our tired...lead our tired, yeah, here...
Patriot [Steve Van Zandt]
And the rivers shall open for the righteous...
And the rivers shall open for the righteous someday...
And he wondered, oh how I am.
Said what I believe in my soul
Ain't what I see with my eyes,
And there's no turning back this time.
Because my country is all I know.
Wanna be with my family,
People who understand me.
I got no place else to go.
She looked so fine, I said
"Baby, what's on your mind?"
Said I want to run like the lions
Released from their cages...
Released from the rages
Burning in my soul tonight.
Because my country is all I know.
And I ain't no socialist,
And I ain't no capitalist,
And I ain't no imperialist,
And I ain't no democrat,
Sure ain't no republican either,
I only know one party,
And that is freedom.
I am...I am...I am...
Because my country is all I know.
And the rivers shall open for the righteous,
And the rivers shall open for the righteous someday...
Someday...someday...
Piece of Crap [Neil Young]
The bottom fell out, it was a piece 'a crap (piece of crap!).
Digitally clean, it was a piece of crap (piece of crap!).
The dealer was a liar, he was a piece of crap (piece of crap!).
I found out in the end, it was a piece of crap (piece of crap!).
They cut the forest down to build a piece of crap (piece of crap!).
It didn't tell me beans, it was a piece of crap (piece of crap!).
The guy told me at the door it was a piece of crap...
It was a piece of crap...
Now you're home alone with a piece of crap (piece of crap!).
Found out in the end it was a piece of crap (piece of crap!).
Poor Girl [Eddie Vedder w/ Supersuckers; by
X]
He hit you hard and you cried so long.
Life turned and wandered, never to come back again.
Take what she gives you, don't feel sorry boy.
And you were too hurt to walk, too bad to begin.
I looked at the sign, but I couldn't feel sad for you.
Take what she gives you, don't cry when you kiss her.
And I tried to explain, why she won't say a thing.
Sad, sad thing, I'm so faraway, girl
How can I say she won't talk at all.
She holds her deck of cards,
She wants to be alone.
I've been very ill, and I've tried waking up,
No...to be alone.
You didn't look so good, and you didn't feel so ill,
You said... (hold me)
But I couldn't get it right.
Take what she gives you, don't feel sorry boy.
And I tried to explain, why she won't say a thing.
Sad, sad thing, I'm so faraway, now
How can I say why won't talk at all.
She holds her deck of cards,
She wants to be alone.
She still drinks in the dark.
The radio is left only.
She saw a madman fight,
And break it up 'cause he injured himself.
Then she felt better off,
'Cause she was only drugged.
