Bed of Fire

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!

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

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'!"

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

Soul Breakdown

|

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

No Color, No Power
03:49
|

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
