Out of Sight

Back to top

Out of my face
I don't know your name
As time goes by
You're the same
The last time that you saw me
I didn't even care
The next time that I saw you
It was me who stood and stared

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
(repeat)

Hang in the bar
I'm making noise
You have a chevy
I guess it's your choice
You really thought you had me
Thought you put me in my place
You were so cool in high school
But now I'm in your face

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind
(repeat)

You tell me you got a wife
I suspect
You got a kid
And I got a cat
You really thought you had me
Thought you put me in my palce
You were so cool in high school
But now I'm in your face

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind

Up Yours

Back to top

Up yours
Stop your whine
Feelin' swell
And I'm doin fine
Yeah f*ck your suicide
It's all bull shit cuz I tried
And it really don't impress me all that much

Up yours
What you find
Sit right down I got time
And you say here comes the end
And I haven't got a friend
And I'm standing here just screaming at the wall

Up yours
Stop your whine
Whatta ya got
I got mine
And you shake your stupid head
And you wish that you were dead
And I swear sometimes your happier than me

And you know it's hard to be
All the things you want me to be
And you go and make it hard on me
But I swear that anything you could be I could be can't you see

Up yours
Got no mind
That's too bad
You got time

Yeah, f*ck your silly game
Cuz it's driving me insane
And it really doesn't matter much to me

Down On the Corner

Back to top

Early on the evening Just about suppertime
Over by the courthouse They're startin' to unwind
Poor kids on the corner Tryin' to bring you up
Willie picks a tune out And he blows it on the hum

Chorus--- Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willie and the Poor Boys are playin'
Bring a nickel Tap your feet

Gersta hits the white bow
People just gotta smile
Lucas thumbs a gut-bass Yeah
Solos for a while
Poor Boy brings the rhythym
On his kalamazoo
And Willie goes into a dance
Doubles on his lou

(chorus)

You don't need a pinhead
Just to hang around
But if you got a nickel
Won't ya lay your money down
Over on the corner
There's a happy guy
People come from all around
To watch the magic boy

(repeat chorus three times)

Gimme Shelter

Back to top

Oh, a storm is threat'nin'
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away

War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away

Ooh, see the fire sweepin'
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way

War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away

The floods is threat'nin'
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away

War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Kiss away, kiss away

James Dean

Back to top

Look around outside
Ain't nothing to do but hang around
Think about all the stupid things that I've done
I guess I ain't nothin' but a clown

If I had a wish, I swear I'd wish, I'd wish for just one thing
And I don't even like to think about all the things my wish'd bring
Cuz I just wanna be James Dean
I just wanna be James Dean
I just wanna be James Dean
For a day

I wanna be oversexed and underworked
and look at me I'm such a jerk

and I just wanna be James Dean
For a day

Think about stories of the actors and the movies stars
Sittin' here watchin' the old men drinkin' at the bar
I think about Dean ane all the things he should've tried
I think about Dean and all the ways he could've died
Yeah, died

And I wouldn't give a shit about anything cuz I'd be such a big big star
And that don't really do me much good just cryin' at the bar

But I just wanna be James Dean
I just wanna be James Dean
I just wanna be James Dean
For a day

See, but I'm
Overworked and undersexed and look at me I'm such a wreck

And I just wanna be James Dean
For a day

Goin' crazy cuz I'm always all alone
Goin' crazy, no one calls me on the phone
Think about Dean and I know Dean he wouldn't care
If I was Dean, I know there'd be somebody there
Yeah, there'd be somebody there
For me

Yeah, I think about all the really cool things I could do and say
Then you go and tell me that you found out Dean was gay
No, I don't wanna be James Dean
I don't wanna be James Dean
I don't wanna be James Dean
Anymore
