Cinnamon Roll
Darkest deeds tattoo my shame / where only stars can guide me home / I
closed my eyes and lost my sight / just like a fortune teller had warned / I
heard her warning just a little too late (x2) / sweetest sugar is deep inside /
deep inside your soul / I love you (x3) / I love you, cinnamon roll / like a drunken
brawl is loud / my heart and mind growl / without hands the stumbling blind /
hide on ghost's highways / only to hear the sirens whine (x2) / sweetest sugar
is deep inside / deep inside your soul / I love you (x3) / I love you, cinnamon roll
/ puzzles riddle me straight through / like the past I travel to / my heart begs for
you / give me some hints give me a clue / I'm down on my knees / praying I find
you / I pray I can find you / sweetest sugar is deep inside / deep inside your
soul / I love you (x3) / I love you, cinnamon roll
Dollar Signs
Down on Maxwell / wiseman incense burns / find your trust in god / on the back
of a dollar bill / roll up that dollar / and you got yourself a church / suck in some
smoke / and blow away your dreams and hopes / I never saw the devil's clause
/ all I saw were those dollar signs / now learn you child / about what I speak /
down on Maxwell / you can roll in the street / never get high enough / to look
upon his heavenly face / wiseman knows what's real / wiseman knows what's
fake / I never saw the devil's clause / all I saw were those dollar signs / my eyes
are rolling / shaking and rattling / like a sleeping pill / that's the devil's in /
knock, knock, knocking / knocking on my window sill / don't that devil know / that
my soul is tired and poor / I never saw the devil's clause / all I saw were those
dollar signs
Avenues and Boulevards
Avenues and boulevards / ain't much reward / for dreams fought so hard /
closed stores and houses falling down / crowned by your name / on the poor
side of time / unhealed scars across our land / will the wounds heal? / can we
rise up and stand? / these streets were meant to appease /
shame,shame,shame / if your mind's put at ease / boulevards and avenues /
wish we all were / working for another view / break the chains that bind these
roads / rearrange the signs / think in different modes / boulevards and avenues
/ change (x3) / we've got to change
United Snakes
I've got / nothing to believe in / I've had / nothing to believe in / give me /
something to believe in / a wise man said / one song sung / can tell / a million
people they're wrong / whatever / my head is numb / living life / like I was dead /
no future / for my generation / can't get / some concentration / it's real / real
frustration / got nothing / got nothing / nothing to believe in / give me / give me /
something to believe in
Super Motel 8
In april in march or june / the weather is nice if it rains / it pours inside our tomb
/ we can knock on wood / cross our fingers and hold our tongues / for what? /
do the crippled seek? / in their parades down main street / I won't even speak /
of the horror underlit and in bloom / rearrange my furniture / lock the door to my
room / now silence is not sound / for what? / do the crippled seek? / but a new
limb to hang on, yeah / television sparks kiss like lips / goodbye / dressed in
black widow tones / hang up, break your phone / hello, baby I'm coming home /
that's what the crippled seek / hiding underneath my bed / oh, what a super
motel 8
Snakes in My Veins
I got black venom / all in my arm / your sweet bite / simmers and boils / steal
my mind / steal my days / cry sweet tears, I'll never be the same / oh,lord,no,
I've got snakes in my veins / bad blood / all sick and sore / your dark magic / got
a wicked course / suck my life / straight out of me / scream inside, won't be
heard from again / no, no, no, I've got snakes in my veins / night crawlers / all
step aside / snakes hiss / in my insides / wrapped tight / with your poison kiss /
until I die, can't do nothing for this / swarming snakes in my veins
H-Bomb
You make me shake / when you talk / you make the night / seem real dark / got
barbed wire / 'round my heart / what went wrong? / my little h-bomb / evil you
done me / should never have start / I got lost / in your heart / now I'm trapped /
can't get out / I'm weak, you're strong / my little h-bomb / I'm tired of working /
too tired to try / take the right pills / all the wrong times / I'm burning out / I'm
burning up / you'll explode when I'm gone / my little h-bomb / h-bomb baby,
yeah
Jawbone Blues
I've been drinking / I've been thinking / I've been driving / all around to you, son /
I've been drinking / I've been breathing / I've been riding / down on you,son /
now you better put your hands on a gun, son / 'cause, I've been looking in the
bible to find anything to keep me from taking my revenge on you / son / I've
been painting my eyes black / I've been looking over my back / 'cause I can feel
a shadow's touch telling me you're the unborn one / that'll poison our wells and
sicken the land / you're gonna see no more days rising sun / you disrespected
your father once too often / I'll tear down your peaceful home and burn it's
timber to light your funeral / you / son / of / mine / you better run (x2) / I know it's
wrong (x2) / but I ain't gonna stop until one of us is gone
Never Happy
One more night / and the stars shine / don't seem right / and my mind / is filled
with fire / that burns behind my eyes / and lights up my room / even in the
darkest night / fires fueled / by memories of you / it wasn't long ago / when I had
everything / under control / yes, I started off on the right foot with you / but, I
couldn't dance that dance for long / that's when you taught me / that love is a
knife that cuts / and I learned / just what a needle could mend / I warned you
near the end / that I'd rather break your heart / then ever end up breaking your
neck / but you must have thought something else / for you seemed so
surprised / when I left that night / for I left you first / I know you wondered why /
oh, lord, I asked myself the very same thing / and I found I could fool the whole
wide world / but there was one person I could not deceive / someone who
wouldn't play make believe / yes,it's true I could make you laugh / but I could
never make you happy / I could never make you happy
