seledoux My parents attended a concert in Arcata in the late 90s. They brought home a copy of Changito and my ears and heart were never the same. Favorite track: Rude Forever.

Bed of Fire 03:17
Lyrics: You can say what you want, but you won't get me You can do anything, but just leave me be You can tell all the lies that your heart desires But you'll never get me to return to your Bed of Fire Why did you have to treat me that way? It wasn't like the good ol' days When you would hold me all night long Back then, you sang a different song Why'd you have to go away? Life would have been so good if you'd stayed You sabotaged our love with your lies You really hurt me, cut me up inside I'm not the man that I used to be I really think there's not much left in me You tore it out and found another buyer People only get burned inside your Bed of Fire!

Quemara! 03:59
Estoy bailando tan rapido que mi corazon se quemara Translation: I am dancing so fast, my heart burns

Bomb 03:08
I know a girl in love, but she's in love with a bum He's jerking her all the time, but she still thinks he's the bomb She radiates in time, he's not sure she's still alive F'n 'round with her friends, and jerking her all the time On lazy days... such a long, such a long way home Don't wake her up. I know a girl in love but, she's in love with a fool She thinks she's hurting her mom, by breaking all of the rules She's only hurting herself, it happens every time Still messing 'round with a friend, when she could be mine I know a girl in love, but she's in love with a bum He's jerking her all the time, but she still thinks he's the bomb She radiates in time, he's not sure she's still alive F'n 'round with her friends, and jerking her all the time You dropped a bomb on me, baby... On lazy days... such a long, such a long way home Don't wake her up.

I could never make the sun turn night And I could never make these wrongs turn right But what I have I give to you I could never bring you dreams to share and I could never bring you pain to bear But what I have I give to you Giving it all... And in the morning you rise, a brand new day You'll see the light When all frustration melt away I'll make right Cause what I have I give to you

$30 Suit 03:16
Got my suit, got my tie Shined those shoes and there's a sparkle in my eye Goin' down to the local disco club Find some girl, I'm gonna dance the rub-a-dub Left my cares on the couch Got some money gonna buy a Guinness now See that girl, well she's so fine Set your clocks, cause any second she'll be mine. I'm just dancing, in my $30 suit I'm romancing in my $30 suit Got my suit, got my tie Shined those shoes and there's a sparkle in my eye Goin' down to the local disco club Find some girl, I'm gonna dance the rub-a-dub Left my cares on the couch Got some money gonna buy a Guinness now You can say anything... But I was nothing, 'til the Goodwill made me king I'm just dancing, in my $30 suit I'm romancing in my $30 suit In the dance hall! "Good money spent, but still no lovin'!"

Bachelor 03:45
I can cook for myself, said I can clean for myself but I don't need no dishwasher, 'cause I got paper plates to eat on No light bulbs left in the house, so I creep just like a mouse Carrying a lightbulb from the bathroom to the next room to it 15 days since laundry day, my underwear walked away Went to Kmart again, to get me through the weekend I have seen my dog in a week, my pipes are starting to leak My landlord's really scummy, he only comes around for money But I'm happy now, just sitting on my couch I'm so happy... see? Watching MTV.

Rude Forever 02:59
You know I love you and I want you to stay And I know you love me, so don't turn me away I've been waiting for you so long, and I know that I was wrong Because this Rudeboy, can't stay Rude forever Six days since you left, I cry every night With this feeling in my heart, I know that you're right So now that you've gone your way, I will cry for many more days Because this Rudeboy, can't stay Rude forever Then all my friends said, just to let her go But this feeling in my heart, it hurts me so So, now I give a word to the wise, that it's best to apologize Because this Rudeboy, can't stay Rude forever

The Mummy! (shakin' in the rags)

Feel the Soul Break Down, the Soul breakdown Feel the Soul Break Down, the Soul breakdown Can you tell me why, with all the people in the world Why we are fussin' and fighting while the children are dying? No one to cling to, no one to nourish No one to sing to while hope is discouraged Feel the Soul Break Down, the Soul breakdown Feel the Soul Break Down, the Soul breakdown

I don't understand what's wrong with his color Tell me what kind of fool are you? There's no reason for you hating another I say, you should try to get along What are you trying to get accomplished The road you're on only brings despair What you're seeing is something that's not even there. Are we gonna stop trying Have we not much to give? There are people dying, and they're wanting to live You say your people can't help them, just stop digging their graves! Are you ever gonna grow up? Can't you see your mistake? Woolah Woolah, Woolah! Up the mountain! Hoist those skirts a little higher! You just spout out all your ignorant rantings Your words, they make no sense at all You say that you are justified for your actions I say you are just dead wrong Get a grip on the world thats around you And stop blaming the world for your lies No race destroyed you, you did it all yourself With your sickening visions of a race war to fight Color has no power, whether it's black or white If its the world we live in, I would rather be dead We would have no future, none worth living in
