Intro Prt. 2

Chorus

Lyrics:

My heart is beating from me

I am standing all alone

Please call me only if you are coming home (Intro)

Waste another year flies by

Waste a night or two

You taught me how to live

In the streets of shame

Where you've lost your dreams in the rain

There's no sign of hope

The stems and seeds of the last of the dope (Verse 1)

There's a glow of light

The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night

Bearing gifts and trust

The fixture in the city of lust

What the hell's your name?

Whats your pleasure, what is your pain? (Chorus 1)

Do you dream to much?

Do you think what you need is a crutch?

In the crowd of pain

St. Jimmy comes without any shame

He says We're f*cked up! (Verse 2)

But we're not the same

And mom and dad are the ones you can blame

Jimmy died today

He blew his brains out into the bay (Chorus 2)

In the state of mind

It's my own private suicide

Part II: East 12th Street

If nobody cares?

Jesus filling out paperwork now

At the facility on East 12th Street

He's not listening to a word now

He's in his own world and he's day dreaming (Verse)

He'd rather be doing someting else now

Cigarettes and coffee with the underbelly

His life's on the line with anxiety now

She had enough and he had plenty

Somebody get me out of here!

Anybody get me out of here! (Intermission 1)

Somebody get me out of here!

Get me the f*ck right out of here!

So far away

I don't wanna stay

Get me outta here right now (Intermission 2)

Just wanna be free

Is there a possibility

Get me outta here right now

This life like dream ain't for me (Outro)

Lyrics:

I fell asleep while watching Spike TV

After 10 cups of coffee

And your still not here

Dreaming of a song

But something went wrong

And you cant tell anyone (Verse)

Cuz you're not here

Left me here alone

Well I should have stayed home (Pre-Chorus)

After 10 cups of coffee

I'm thinking

Where'd you go?

Nobody likes you

Everyone left you

They're all out without you havin fun

Where'd you go (Chorus)

Nobody likes you

Everyone left you

They're all out without you havin fun

Where'd you go

Lyrics:

GEEZ!...Ah.. (Intro)

I got a rock and roll band

I got a rock and roll life

I got a rock and roll girlfriend

And another ex-wife

I got a rock and roll house

I got a rock and roll car

I play the sh*t out the drums (Verse)

And I can play the guitar

I got a kid in new york

I got a kid in the bay

I haven't drank or smoked nothin'

In over 22 days

So get off my case

Get off of my case (Outro)

Outro

Lyrics:

Here they come marching down the street

Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat

Coming back from the edge of town

Underneath their feet (Verse)

The time has come and it going nowhere

Nobody ever said that life was fair now

Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear

In the summer heat

The world is spinning

Around and around

Out of control again

From the 7-11 to the fear of breaking down (Pre-Chorus)

So send my love a letterbomb

And visit me in hell

We're the ones going

Home

We're coming home again (Interlude)

Home

We're coming home again

I started f*ckin' running

Just as soon as my feet touch ground (Verse 2)

We're back in Barrio

But to you and me, that's jingle town

Home

We're coming home again (Interlude)

Home

We're coming home again

Home

We're coming home again

Home

We're coming home again

Home (Interlude 2)

We're coming home again

Home

We're coming home again

Nobody likes you

Everyone left you (Outro)

They're all out without you havin' fun
