Women break the backs of all good men in time.
But I won't stop until you're mine.
Men will expect you to love them till they die.
Even though they tell you lies.
Oh the fight between the sexes gets me by.
Who's to ask the reasons why?
If you want a lesson free before you go...
I'm about to tell you so:
Oh.Oh.Oh, Let's Go Men, Let's Go Again!
(you know they're after you)

I've got a right to write you off
Oh loaded are the words
But I've got to let you know
Because it's seldom ever heard
Alright
I've got a hole the size of hell inside
I've got to make do
I've got a right to write you off
Cause nothing with me lasts
the more I think ahead
I'm saddled with the past
I got my own to wonder
Just how I'll throw you under
If you want to know how you get closer
I'm sorry but the truth is Alright
I've got a hole the size of hell inside
It's gonna take your love to fill it Tonight
We've got hours until the sun shows and steals away the mood
We'll revel in the hunger the way lovers often do
I got a way to my demeanor that'll send you into seizures
and though I stand to repeat myself, I've got to let you know
It's Alright

Never Listen
02:59

To feel is to be weak
You only came here to be seen
I don't care what you want to hear
as long as you paid to get in
I don't care, man, what you say
You don't bring us anything
Hardly breathin
Your ears to the sound
We are gonna burn this city to the ground for you to...
feel
To be weak
You only came what more you want to hear
You gotta go
I dont care man, what you say
Just bring us who you know
Hey mouth breather
Your ear is to the ground
We're gonna make our dead folks proud
I will never listen
to anything you say
I turn intuition
into my enemy
You spill to the streets like a little girl
Your mouth agape as you finger your curls
You've no idea what you've just heard
You're defiant but you want to belong
It's the science of believing your wrong
You think you're trying when you're singing this song
but it won't do you any good.

Tension
03:40
|
|||
You're expenses are expensive
You're survival is subdued
How do you you cope
when you're at the end of your rope?
It's critical
How do you do?
The tension... how do you fare?
The girl you loved is getting married
It seems your Spring has never come
How to cope when your life vest doesn't float
You've got to bite down and take in the waves
The tension... how does it feel
You've got to go
How're you pleasing the little lady?
You're not as young as you once were
It's bare you see
where your hairdo used to be
It's critical. How do you do?

Uriah
02:44
|
|||
In better days we could've been
Love sick and starved of sentiment
I should've know it would occur
You and her was me and her
You're riled
Uriah
You're mired
Uriah
I believe in holding still
Keeping firm the iron will
I will crawl
I will endure
The son you don't have anymore

I Don't Mind
05:24
|
|||
I won't be there when you're leaving
I wont notice when you're hurting
Just pretend that you don't need me
It might help to make it easier
And for you it holds no reason
When words bleed out it leaves no meaning
It's like me to forgo the obvious
when I'm doubting your intentions all along
You don't understand.
It means nothing.
You try to bite the hand that holds your heart.
I Don't Mind.
All we need is honesty
For some, you see through obviously

Desire

Live video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgY7Wt1YDgM
When all things required
strong-arm our desires
We ignore what's decided
Depending on what's provided
I've not much to lose
but hope around you revolves
We are all involved
It's just time to come to grips and so
When will it end for you?
Enough to see it through?
You've got a smart mouth
I hope it helps you sing aloud
I'm sure it's hard for you now to figure out...
Here you are
It always makes you out a liar
Desire, desire, desire desire desire.

I Know, I Know

What you sayin when you're body's rockin up?
I know, I know
Well I just have to say so
That's why you got your heart beating
but that's a lie 'cause you say you ain't nobody
And I don't want to say no
So saddle up and go...
To be invited well you gotta play their way
Is that so?
I just gotta let go
They say you need a lover
and that's a shame oh cause you can't stop to reason
And I don't want to say no
It's hardly sweat off your brow
Well I'm just saying
The way you shimmy down
the dance
Well I believe in you
and what you gonna do!
