LYRICS
From the album 'High Time'
PRAYING TO A NEW GOD
In the corner of my eye
Is an angel flying high
Shooting up without a gun
She’s in love with everyone
She is in love with everyone
In a room without a view
There ain’t nothing else to do
She said “I’ve been here before,
I can’t take it anymore”
I am in Love with everyone
Praying to a New God (Praying to a New God)
Praying to a New God (Praying to a New God)
Praying to a New God
Everyday
Driving through the pouring rain
There are things I can’t explain
As long as I am in your debt
What you see is all you get
We are in love with everyone
CHORUS
Solo
Baby I need your lovin’ now
Baby I want your lovin’ now
CHORUS x 2

HEAVEN
Homeboy in the kitchen
Skinnin' up a J'
He got plenty smelly
For another day
Come on pretty mama
Take a look inside
Show me what you're made of
Don't know what you'll find
And it feels like heaven
And it hurts like hell
And I think I am falling
Really fallin' for you
Baby turn the lights out
You know what I like
Let me hear Bob Marley
Mornin', noon and night
When the party's over
We can take it slow
Crawl around for hours
Really lose control
And it feels like heaven
And it hurts like hell
And I think I am falling
Really fallin' for you

DOG SONG
Back of the car
That will do for me
Back of the car
That will do nicely
Your place or mine?
Your place or mine?
She said
I wanna dog
Who can take good care
I wanna dog
Who can take control of me
End of the lane
That will do for me
End of the lane
That will do nicely
Your place or mine?
Your place or mine?
She said
I wanna dog
Who can take good care
I wanna dog
Who will climb all over me
Down on your knees
That will do for me
Down on your knees
That will do nicely
Your place or mine?
Your place or mine?
She said
I wanna dog
Who can take good care
I wanna dog
Who will climb all over
I wanna dog
I can chain up next to me
She said
I wanna dog
She said
I wanna dog
She said
I wanna dog
I said
Your place or mine?

MONKEY WITH THE BLOODSHOT EYES
All the animals arrive
No one here gets out alive
Ignorance can make you blind
This is where you lose your mind
This is where you lose your mind
Body laying on the ground
Love is nowhere to be found
Monkey with the bloodshot eyes
I can see through your disguise
I can see through your disguise

VALIUM DAY
I don't know where I will be sleeping
I don't know where I'll rest my head
Can't tell what's wrong from right
Can't tell what's black from white
Can't tell you how I feel tonight
Feel tonight
There's no way I'm comin' down
(can't bring me down, can't bring me)
There's no way I'm comin' down
(can't bring me down, never bring me)
Here it comes to take me away
Another fun-filled valium day
This road is long and who knows what we'll find
I'm leaving everything behind
I look like shit again, I feel like death
I think i need to find myself
Find myself
There's no way I'm comin' down
(can't bring me down, can't bring me)
There's no way I'm comin' down
(can't bring me down, never bring me)
Here it comes to take me away
Another fucked-up valium day
Here it comes
Here it comes
To take me away
Im waiting, I'm shakin', I'm strung-out for you love
Im waiting, I'm shakin', I'm strung-out for you love
For your love, For your love
For your love, For your love

CRAZY
The bells are ringin' out Sunday Mornin'
Got no idea of time
And when I get to where I am goin'
I'll start all over again
Everybody here dreams of something
Or maybe nothing at all
I think it's time for a new beginning
I think it's time for a change
Here it comes
And it feels like living
Here it comes
And I feels alright
Here it comes
Now we're goin' crazy
On a train like a rollercoaster
It's just a matter of time
The bomb could drop wouldn't hear it comin'
Too busy losing our minds
Here it comes
And it feels like living
Here it comes
And I feel alright
Here it comes
Now we're goin' crazy

SUPERMAN
I won't crack
I won't crawl
I won't shake anymore
I won't crash
I won't burn
I won't break anymore
And that's why
I am who I am
And that's why
I don't give a damn
And that's why
I am where I am
And that's why
I wanna be superman
I won't freak
I won't speed
I won't use anymore
I won't creep
I won't bleed
I won't lose anymore
And that's why
I am who I am
And that's why
I don't give a damn
And that's why
I am where I am
And that's why
I wanna be superman

ANIMAL
I see a little boy not a man
And in his hand an empty beer can
A cigarette to light the way
He turns to me to say
I'm an animal baby (here I am)
I'm a wild one sugar (here I am)
I'm a vampire sister (here I am)
I'm a werewolf honey
At night the city turns into a zoo
The streets are paved for me and for you
And there ain't nothin' I'd rather do
Than someone like you
I'm an animal baby (here I am)
I'm a wild one sugar (here I am)
I'm a vampire sister (here I am)
I'm a werewolf honey
Watch out
And when the dust has taken effect
And all my fears have been laid to rest
Out of my head and out of my mind
I'm crackin' up tonight
I'm an animal baby (here I am)
I'm a wild one sugar (here I am)
I'm a vampire sister (here I am)
I'm a werewolf honey

OUTTA MY MIND
I really wanna get together
Just like we did before
I really wanna be forever
Just knockin' down your door
And I know what I want
But I just can't reach it now
And I like what I see
And I've got to let you know
I can't get you outta my mind
I can't get you
Gone gone gone
I can't get you outta my mind
I can't get you
Gone
I really wanna get together
Just like we did before
I really wanna be forever
Just knockin' down your door
And I know what I want
But I just can't reach it now
And I like what I see
And I've got to let you know
I can't get you outta my mind

BE MINE
Apparently
Incredibly
Ferociously
Be Mine
Instinctively
It Had To Be
In Sympathy
Be Mine
I can feel it comin' over me
I can feel it spillin' over me
I can feel it takin' over me
Incessantly
Subconsciously
Repeatedly
Be Mine
I can feel it comin' over me
I can feel it spillin' over me
I can feel it takin' over me

MY WORLD IS BLACK
Don't talk to me about time
Don't talk to me at all unless you're outa your mind
Don't talk to me about change
Don't talk to me at all unless you really feel strange
Cause I've lost EVERYTHING
And I'll never get it back
I've lost everything
Now my whole world is black
My world is black
Don't talk to me about pain
Don't talk to me at all unless you're going insane
Don't talk to me about faith
Don't talk to me at all unless you think it's too late
Cause I've lost EVERYTHING
And I'll never get it back
I've lost everything
Now my whole world is black
My world is black
Words & Music by Dave Dwyer
ALMOST ANYTHING
Sitting in the shade
Of another summers’ day
And it feels like I can be
Almost anything
And I wonder
How to make you mine
And I wonder
If you’re feelin’ fine
Under the setting sun
Throw back another one
We’ve got all the time we need
To be where we wanna be
We’ve got everything we need
To be who we wanna be
So what are you to me?
And what am I to you?
I think I’ll go back to
Lexington Avenue
And I wonder
How to make you smile
And I wonder
What was on your mind
Under the setting sun
Roll up another one
We’ve got all the time we need
To be where we wanna be
We’ve got everything we need
To be who we wanna be
And the sun is shining for you and me
And the trees are swaying for you and me
And the band are playing for you and me
You and me

GOOD TIME
Havin' a good time
Nothin' else matters
Havin' a good time now
Nothin' else matters
Don't have to ask me questions
There's answers that I can't find
Havin' a good time
Nothin' else matters
"What about me?" she said
"What have you ever done for me?
I think that I need a friend
I used to believe in you and me
What about me?
What have you ever done for me?"
Havin' a good time
Nothin' else matters
Havin' a good time now
Nothin' else matters
Don't have to ask me questions
There's answers that I can't find
Havin' a good time
Nothin' else matters
"What about me?" she said
"What have you ever done for me?
I think that I need a friend
I used to believe in you and me
What about me?
What have you ever done for me?"
No I can't and I won't
I don't wanna be with you
No I can't and I won't
I don't wanna be with you
I don't wanna be with you
"What about me?" she said
"What have you ever done for me?
I think that I need a friend
I used to believe in you and me
What about me?
What have you ever done for me?"

FRANKENSTEIN
I don't need you around
Bringin' me down
I don't need you around
Bringin' me down
Well you're gonna need a white line
If you wanna be my Frankenstein
I don't need you around
Bringin' me down
I don't need you around
Bringin' me down
Well you're gonna need a white line
If you wanna be my Frankenstein

IN RETRO
You light a cigarette
And then you pour yourself a drink
You're trying hard to find yourself
But all you do is forget
I DON'T BLAME YOU
I don't blame you
Cause you've had a long day
And you've had a hard night
And there's not much more to say….
Whatever Gets You High
A million miles from where you are
But I am standing next to you
You try to get inside my head
But then I turn my back on you
NO DON'T BLAME ME
No don't blame me
Cause I've had a long day
And I've had a hard night
And there's not much more to say….
Whatever Gets You High
I'm goin' down
I'm goin' down….

LOVE DON'T GET ME HIGH
You're not my honey Pie
You're not my butterfly
Anymore
You're not my nicotine
You're not my beauty queen
Anymore
Your love don't get me high
And I don't really mind anymore
Your love don't get me high
And I don't really mind anymore
You're not my saving grace
You're not my sweet embrace
Anymore
You're not my ball & chain
You're not my pure cocaine
Anymore
Your love don't get me high
And I don't really mind anymore
Your love don't get me high
And I don't really mind anymore
You're not my honey Pie
You're not my butterfly
You're not my ball & chain
You're not my pure cocaine
Anymore

CAN'T WALK OUT
Hey
I can't decide my fate
I know it's getting late
I can't afford to wait
Hey
It's not the change you bring
It's not the mood you're in
It's not the song I sing
Upside down and inside out
My head is gone I can't walk out
Upide down and inside out
Head is gone - I Can't walk out
Hey
It's not that I am blind
It's just that I can't find
What's goin' through your mind
Hey
It's not the hat I wear
It's not the pills I swear
It's not that I don't care
Hey
I'm proppin' up the bar
Three chords and this guitar
Look out, we've gone too far
Upside down and inside out
My head is gone I can't walk out
Upide down and inside out
Head is gone - I Can't walk out
Hey
I can't walk out....
