Rx Bandits Album

What if I told you
that you're a lovely gal
and i'd adore you
if you'd just show me how- right now
what if i told you
things that i have inside
shoulder to cry on
someone that i confide- right now

i can't see
the life thats left in front of me
so drop me off
i can't do
the things that i was meant to
just drop me in

what if i told you
that you're a stupid whore
and i want nothing
your life is such a bore to me
what if i told you
i speak with honesty
you said yourself, girl
best things in life are free
right now, right away

i can't see
the life thats left in front of me
so drop me off
i can't do
the things that i was meant to
just drop me in

never better, never worse
never better, never worse
never better, never worse
never better, never worse

Kit says that she wants it,
hangin onto me like a disease
Jaime Skratch says she needs it,
but she don't know she got all that she needs
u say that I need it,
need to find some of that clarity
i say that i got it,
hangin out in my town of s.b.
and its alright
we ain't never gonna leave (this town)
they'll try to defeat you
try to make you go and get up and leave
don't ever let them beat you
what you got is all that you need
that's right!

hey whatcha doin?
with that gun in your hand?
now who ya skrewin?
gonna kill your old man.
who gave you the right to play god here?
shootin missles at the countries of the people that did no wrong.
there's a little mama san with her baby in her cradle cryin'
singin why the fuck can't we just get along?
hey whatcha thinkin?
holding money behind your back.
you, you must be drinking.
gonna give yourself a heart-attack
we can't fight all night!
well you won't see me on that fucking front line
i ain't gonna kill no stranger and i ain't gonna do time
because its 1,2,3 that's an innocent life
oh and little sister, sister where's your brother today?
i wish that i could tell you that he's gonna be ok
but i can't and i won't tonight.
i can see a soldier marching off to war.
does he know what he is fighting for?
another soldier gone off to attack
but will he come back?

Daddys gone now
hes gone off to fight
the new world war
hes gonna be a hero
ya he'll be a star
but what is seen
aint what it means
to you, you see the rest
now daddys gonna go and kill
you think thats best
daddy thinks that its the right way
daddy says he'll be ok!
but now daddy has stopped writting
and you dont know what to say

whats right i cant see
(this time im headed for the door)
what is wrong with me
i can see were so blind
were so blind i can see
so upset at the world
and its mediocrity

Johnny sighs
as he leans back into his office chair
he runs his fingers
through his clean cut hair
piles of bullshit
growing up around his desk are large
cause thats hte only way
that johnny knows to charge
johnny thinks that its the right way
cause he gets six days off a year
johnny still aint sick of waiting
because he dont know what is fair

whats right i cant see
(this time im headed for the door)
what is wrong with me
i can see were so blind
were so blind i can see
so upset at the world
and its mediocrity

standing in the rain, a broken window pane
rain drops fall upon my head
nothing left to do, repetition's turned me blue
and all of my thoughts are dead
i can see for miles, in every direction
i can see your hell, in your reflection
tying up in bed, staring at her head
i wonder what she's thinkin now?
all my thoughts are true, of what i said to you
it seems so much like home right now
i can see you with your back to the wall
i will be there when you finally fall
nothing left you could say this time
you can't weasel out this time but
i can see you with your back to the wall
standing in the rain all the people look the same
the raindrops fall upon my head
nothing left to do because my brain's too full of glue
its like my mind is overfed
(nothing witty seems to come to mind though)
cornered with your back to the wall
cornered with your back to the wall...

i can't wait forever,
maybe i can't wait all night.
last time that she kissed me
before her boyfriend blacked my eye.
she left in the morning,
i got no goodbye,
but there's no use for crying
its the story of my life.
nothing left to say,
no holding back can't seem to stomach this heart-attack
what could you say? well it ain't right
what we want to see
through this harsh reality
is something that you never know you left behind....
you know that its right
(but you won't tell me)
who's to say its wrong
(its not your lie)
opinionated world leave me alone
what we want to see
through this harsh reality
is that it's NOW OR NEVER!

you don't know, how easy
it is for me to sing about
religion, and my thoughts of you and
now this time its out
now back to, the basics
the simple thoughts i had in mind
the skyline, outlining, too specialized and overlooked
i can't complain, its seems that
i've got everything, i need and
i just can't explain why things aren't right
its the mysteries that balance
how my ponderings are countless
i need this one part because
i think that its this time, with you
and falling in sickness
can't touch the things i need tonight
it makes me regret this
this worlds and all its perfect lies

friends with me today,
friends with me but not tomorrow.
there is nothing left to say (because i lost them)
what did i do
lost a handful found a few
my hearts still close to you
hold me so tight,
don't let me drown (i won't).
what's deep inside
i won't let go
stretching out today,
grasping forth there's no tomorrow.
we're all gone our own ways
what did i do?
cut off what i mean to you
but at least i told the truth.
there's no love for us all
there's no place for my future
nothing left not at all
nothing left i can't find it
i can see its my fault
how could i be so stupid?
i don't love anymore
drop me now cause i'm so damn lost
friends with me today,
friends with me but not tomorrow.
there is nothing left to say (because i lost them)
what did i do
lost a handful found a few
my hearts still close to you

do you remember how you held her
do you remember how you cried
do you remember saying never
but she slowly dried your eyes
cause i remember what i did then
i know we always felt inside
the happiness around the others
and every single day i died

do you remember when our scene was
so young and still so alive
do you remember when i was happy
so happy to arrive
what could you say to all the shows their just so much
what could you say i fucking lost my sense of touch

[chorus]
i know the answer to this question
and i know the answer to this rhyme
and i know the answer to this riddle
it's andrea every time

do you remember what she did
do you remember what she said
and i could never tell my heart
for a minute to forgive
what could you say
when i just looked you in your eye
what could say you knew you wanna lie

[chorus]

oh oh oh oh oh

retribution uniting of a nation
common lets join the revolution
retribution uniting of a nation
common and join it

oh oh oh oh oh

retribution uniting of a nation
common and join it

everyday i search for something soulful
i hope your doing the same cause
you know its true, its how i play
i never run, i never hide
never laid down, lost my pride
that's what i said when she walked away
walk away
that's how you solve all of your problems
you can fuck with me but not today
cause i would rather try and solve them
walk away
no more sorrow, not tomorrow
only happiness today
you can hear when we play

don't make me try to listen
to that ska-core crap
just bust out some metallica
or pop in spinal tap
you say that metal's stupid
wrong i think you need a reason
that's why i wrote this song
you say i don't care cause Satan is my best friend
oh i don't know but its alright
i want you to know i don't know what you said
cause something you should know my friend
is its much too loud for me to hear
i bash my head repeatedly
hard into the wall
and fast i will will i repeat brain damage
will i fall you can't expect that?
you don't think that's alright?
well i don't care cause
i'll listen to metal all night!
