rodriguez - a most disgusting song
I've played every kind of gig there is to play now
I've played faggot bars, hooker bars, motorcycle funerals
In opera houses, concert halls, halfway houses.
Well I found that in all these places that I've played
all the people that I've played for are the same people
So if you'll listen, maybe you'll see someone you know in this song.
A most disgusting song.
The local diddy bop pimp comes in
Acting limp he sits down with a grin
next to a girl that has never been chased
The bartender wipes a smile off his face
The delegates cross the floor,
curtsy and promenade through the doors,
and slowly the evening begins.
And there's Jimmy "Bad Luck" Butts
who's just crazy about them East Lafayette weekend sluts
Talking is the lawyer in crumpled up shirt
And everyone's drinking the detergents
that cannot remove their hurts
While the Mafia provides your drugs,
your government will provide the shrugs,
and your national guard will supply the slugs,
so they sit all satisfied.
And there's old playboy Ralph
who's always been shorter than himself,
and there's a man with his chin in his hand,
who knows more than he'll ever understand.
Yeah, every night it's the same old thing
Getting high, getting drunk, getting horny
At the Inn-Between, again.
And there's the bearded schoolboy with the wooden eyes
Who at every scented skirt whispers up and sighs
and there's a teacher that will kiss you in French
Who could never give love, could only fearfully clench
Yeah, people every night it's the same old thing
Getting pacified, ossified, affectionate at Mr. Flood's party, again
And there's the militant with his store-bought soul
There's someone here who's almost a virgin I've been told
And there's Linda glass-made who speaks of the past
who genuflects, salutes, signs the cross and stands at half mast
Yeah, They're all here, the Tiny Tims and the Uncle Toms,
redheads, brunettes, brownettes and the dyed haired blondes,
Who talk to dogs, chase broads and have hopes of being mobbed,
who mislay their dreams and later claim that they were robbed
And every night it's going to be the same old thing
Getting high, getting drunk, getting horny
Lost, even, at Martha's Vineyard, again
rodriguez - can't get away
Born in the troubled city
In Rock and Roll, USA
In the shadow of the tallest building
I vowed I would break away
Listened to the Sunday actors
But all they would ever say
That you can't get away from it
No you can't get away
No you can't get away from it
No you can't get away
Schooled on the city sidewalks
Coldness at every turn
Knew I had to find the exits
I never, ever would return
Scoffed at the prophet's omens
That said I would live to learn
That you can't get away from it
no you can't get away
no you can't get away from it
no you can't get away
Going unaided (up 80?) toward the west coast
Stopped in the sleepy town
Left my change and walked out
I didn't even turn around
What they were getting next to
Was that old familiar sound
That you can't get away from it
no you can't get away
no you can't get away from it
no you can't get away
In a hotel room in Amsterdam
On a wild and windy August night
As a cloud passed over a cold moon
My heart was seized with terror and fright
Seeping up through the floorboards
Coming in through the walls
Coming in through the doorway
Ringing up and down the halls
That you can't get away from it
no you can't get away
no you can't get away from it
no you can't get away
no you can't get away
no you can't get away
no you can't get away...
rodriguez - cause
Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas
And I talked to Jesus at the sewer
And the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business
While the rain drank champagne
My Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted
Cause the sweetest kiss I ever got is the one I've never tasted
Oh but they'll take their bonus pay to Molly McDonald,
Neon ladies, beauty is that which obeys, is bought or borrowed
Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumours
But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners
and I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening
Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone
And likes to laugh alone is always threatening you with leaving
Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson
And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson
Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues
And I explained that I had overpaid them
So overdued I went to the company store
and the clerk there said that they had just been invaded
So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill
Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still
Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun
In weekends of whiskey sours
Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book and plant flowers?
rodriguez - climb up on my music
Have you ever had a fever,
From a bitter-sweet refrain,
Have you ever kissed the sunshine,
Walked between the rain.
Well, just climb up on my music,
And my songs will set you free,
Well, just climb up on my music,
And from there jump off with me.
Well, there was a girl named Christmas,
Did I tell ya she drank gold,
She wasn't very hard to capture,
But she was rather hard to hold.
Well, just climb up on my music,
And my songs will set you free,
Well, just climb up on my music,
And from there jump off with me.
Have you ever been in darkness,
And your mind could find no peace,
When you woke up after midnight,
Found your swans have turned to geese.
Well, just climb up on my music,
And my songs will set you free,
Well, just climb up on my music,
And from there jump off with me.
rodriguez - crucify your mind
Was it a huntsman or a player
That made you pay the cost
That now assumes relaxed positions
And prostitutes your loss?
Were you tortured by your own thirst
In those pleasures that you seek
That made you Tom the curious
That makes you James the weak?
And you claim you got something going
Something you call unique
But I've seen your self-pity showing
And the tears rolled down your cheeks.
Soon you know I'll leave you
And I'll never look behind
'Cos I was born for the purpose
That crucifies your mind.
So con, convince your mirror
As you've always done before
Giving substance to shadows
Giving substance ever more.
And you assume you got something to offer
Secrets shiny and new
But how much of you is repetition
That you didn't whisper to him too.
rodriguez - forget it
But thanks for your time
Then you can thank me for mine
And after that's said
Forget it.
Don't be inane
There's no one to blame
No reason why
You should stay here
And lie to me.
Don't say anymore
Just walk out the door
I'll get along fine
You'll see.
But thanks for your time
Then you can thank me for mine
And after that's said
Forget it.
If there was a word
But magic's absurd
I'd make one dream come true.
It didn't work out
But don't ever doubt
How I felt about you.
But thanks for your time
Then you can thank me for mine
And after that's said
Forget it.
rodriguez - gommorah
Come on down and see me
You know my name well
I'm everything you've read
I've got it to sell.
The ladies on my street
Aren't there for their health
Welfare checks don't pave
The road to much wealth.
The cats and the rat things
Go bump through the night
They'll come do a dance thing
Just turn off your light.
Gommorah is a nursery rhyme
You won't find in the book
It's written on your city's face
Just stop and take a look.
A story of pure hate
With pictures between
A tale for your kids
To help them to dream.
Sleep now little children
Don't lose your way
'Cos tourists don't see things
In the clearness of day.
Gommorah is a nursery rhyme
You won't find in the book
It's written on your city's face
Just stop and take a look.
rodriguez - halfway up the stairs
I'm only halfway up the stairs
Not up or down
I'm only halfway up the stairs
Since you let me down
So won't you tell me
Tell me please
What you're gonna do
Cause you know I wouldn't be halfway with you
I don't want to seem impatient
And please don't think me fast
but we've got something going
And I don't want to let it pass
so won't you tell me,
Tell me please
What you're gonna do
'Cause you know I wouldn't be halfway with you
I don't want to seem impatient
And please don't think me fast
But we've got something going
And I don't want to let it pass
So won't you tell me,
Tell me please
What you're gonna do
Cause you know I wouldn't be halfway with you
rodriguez - hate street dialogue
Woman please be gone
You've stayed here much too long
Don't you wish that you could cry
Don't you wish I would die.
Seamy, seesaw kids
Childwoman on the skids
The dust will choke you blind
The lust will choke your mind.
I kiss the floor, one kick no more
The pig and hose have set me free
I've tasted hate
street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate
street's hanging tree.
Instrumental
I kiss the floor, one kick no more
The pig and hose have set me free
I've tasted hate
street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate
street's hanging tree.
The inner city birthed me
The local pusher nursed me
Cousins make it in the street
They marry every trick they meet.
A dime, a dollar they're all the same
When a man comes in to bust your game
The turnkey comes his face a grin
Locks the cell I'm in again.
I kiss the floor, one kick no more
The pig and hose have set me free
I've tasted hate
street's hanging tree
I've tasted
hate street's hanging tree
I've tasted
hate street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate
street's hanging tree...
rodriguez - heikki's suburbia bus tour
Did you read the Sunday paper
about the strong stomached 25
Who from an expedition
All came back alive
From that hostile country
Where only the stones survive
On Heikki's suburbia bus tour one.
Picture-taking tourist
The war was half a deal
The natives can't believe it
It all seems so unreal
Just to ask the question,
Now how does it feel
On Heikki's suburban bus tour ride
2,752 un-scheduled stops
Watch them kill the crabgrass
But look out for the cops
Hospitals for flowers
The matron ladies cry
Itchy trigger fingers
as our caravan walks by
Overcrowded laughter
'cause they're all four gallons high
On Heikki's suburbia bus tour ride
Read the Sunday paper
though you may disagree
About the maiden voyage of poets A to Zee
None confuse to answer
That happiness is free
On Heikki's suburbia bus tour ride.
rodriguez - i think of you
Just a song we shared I'll hear
Brings memories back when you were here
Of your smile, your easy laughter
Of your kiss those moments after
I think of you
And I think of you
And think of you.
Of the dreams we dreamt together
Of the love we vowed would never
Melt like snowflakes in the sun
My days now end, as they begun
With thoughts of you
And I think of you
And think of you.
* Down the streets I'd walk with you
* Seeing others doing
* Things we used to do.
* Now these thoughts they're haunting me
* Of how complete, I used to be
* And in these times that we're apart
* I'll hear that song that breaks my heart
* And I think of you
* And think of you. {bis.
* Refrain...
And I do.
* Refrain...
rodriguez - i wonder
I wonder how many times you've been had
And I wonder how many plans have gone bad
I wonder how many times you had sex
I wonder do you know who'll be next
I wonder l wonder wonder I do
I wonder about the love you can't find
And I wonder about the loneliness that's mine
I wonder how much going have you got
And I wonder about your friends that are not
I wonder I wonder I wonder I do
I wonder about the tears in children's eyes
And I wonder about the soldier that dies
I wonder will this hatred ever end
I wonder and worry my friend
I wonder I wonder wonder don't you?
I wonder how many times you been had
And I wonder how many dreams have gone bad
I wonder how many times you've had sex
And I wonder do you care who'll be next
I wonder I wonder wonder I do
rodriguez - i'll slip away
And I'll forget about the girl that said no
Then I'll tell who I want where to go
And I'll forget about your lies and deceit
And your attempts to be so discreet
Maybe today, yeah
I'll slip away
And you can keep your symbols of success
Then I'll pursue my own happiness
And you can keep your clocks and routines
Then I'll go mend all my shattered dreams
Maybe today, yeah
I'll slip away
Cause you've been down on me for too long
And for too long I just put you on
Now I'm tired of lying and I'm sick of trying
Cause I'm losing who I really am
And I'm not choosing to be like them
And if you get bored and you got loneliness
Or it's dislike for me you express
I won't care if you're right or you're wrong
I won't care cause you see I'll be gone
Maybe today, yeah
I'll slip away
Maybe today, yeah
Maybe today, yeah
Maybe today, yeah girl
I'll slip away
rodriguez - inner city blues
Going down a dirty inner city side road
I plotted
Madness passed me by, she smiled hi
I nodded
Looked up as the sky began to cry
She shot it.
Met a girl from Dearborn, early six o'clock this morn
A cold fact
Asked about her bag, suburbia's such a drag
Won't go back
'Cos Papa don't allow no new ideas here
And now he sees the news, but the picture's not too clear.
Mama, Papa, stop
Treasure what you got
Soon you may be caught
Without it
The curfew's set for eight
Will it ever all be straight
I doubt it.
7 jealous fools playing by her rules
Can't believe her
He feels so in between, can't break the scene
It would grieve her
And that's the reason why he must cry
He'll never leave her.
Crooked children, yellow chalk
writing on the concrete walk
Their King died
Drinking from a Judas cup,
looking down but seeing up
Sweet red wine
'Cos Papa don't allow no new ideas here
And now you hear the music
but the words don't sound too clear.
Mama, Papa, stop
Treasure what you got
Soon you may be caught
Without it
The curfew's set for eight
Will it ever all be straight
I doubt it.
Going down a dusty, Georgian side road
I wonder
The wind splashed in my face
can smell a trace
Of thunder.
rodriguez - it started out so nice
It started out with butterflies
On a velvet afternoon
With flashing eyes and promises
Caught and held too soon
In a place called Ixea
With it's pumpkin oval moon
It started out so nice
Genji taught Orion
Sea-purple harmony
While Kogi hid secrets into seashells
And even the ocean laughed
beneath that celestial canopy
Cuz it started out so nice
With the dust of stars they intermingled
Durock of Avon would only jingle
Marble money tunes
As pale earthly circles swooned
Volume left Bohemia, a triangle for his thumb
Questions fell but no one stopped to listen
That eternity was just a dawn away
And the rest was sure to come
Leaves, caught in winter's ice
Abandoned circus grounds of flower captains
Prisms in a palm one way it happens
The air was silver calm
The softly met were slowly moving on
Then all things in common suddenly grew strange
Now the Wurs were chasing other rainbows
Trying to find where the wind blows
To empty corners past dusty memories
Now in the third millennium the crowded madness came
Crooked shadows roamed through the nights
The wizards overplayed their names
And after that the Wurs never bothered to have
Summer reasons...again,
but it started out so nice
it started out so nice
We started out so nice.
