Текст песни:

Come now honey I may be just a fool, but I’ve got my principles I’m unlucky You may be alive but you’re not invincible It’s just blindness Kicking up a fuss and it’s not for the first time Oh your highness Someone musta told ya you once were a friend of mine I’ve never been shy but I’ve kept my head down Oh oh oh Knowing about enough to get by this old ghost town Oh oh oh Put on your best dress I’ll take you dancing under the street lights Oh you’re charmless You ain’t too pretty but I’ve seen ya tonight It’s just kindness I was brought up well and I won’t leave you crying Oh your highness You ain’t too bright but as long as you’re trying I’ll do my best to keep my head down Oh oh oh Putting my brains to the test in this old ghost town Oh oh oh I’ve never been shy but I’ve kept my head down Oh oh oh Knowing about enough to get by this old ghost town Oh oh oh I’ll do my best to keep my head down Oh oh oh Putting my brains to the test this in old ghost town Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh

  • I’ve been chasing diamonds, I’ve been chasing pearls I’ve been keeping company with cinnamon girls I swoon, do you see my head shake Stay tuned and I’ll entertain Hey hot stuff make mine a lemonade How long does a lifetime take And they all got down to the Cinderella quick step In living color, cheekbones like Johnny Depp When the whip came down it was no joke Came too soon, half drunk under a full moon Well I lost my sense of humor when my lips turned blue Now I know the right move is just whatever gets you through I swooned from the minute that I woke Stay tuned cause it just might rain Hey hot stuff make mine a cherry Coke Your logic’s driving me insane And they all got down to the Cinderella quick step In living color, cheekbones like Johnny Depp When the whip came down it was no joke Came too soon, half drunk under a full moon And then the music stopped playing And the lights came on There was no sign of Cinderella Cinderella was gone She left every heart broken Every good man cried Each and every one had that look upon their face like the ’60s just died And someone said I can hear the music I can hear the music I can hear the music Tell me if you hear the music say yes If you hear the music say yes If you hear the music say yes If you hear the music say yes If you hear the music say yes Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes Say yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes yes And they all got down to the Cinderella quick step In living color, cheekbones like Johnny Depp When the whip came down it was no joke Came too soon, half drunk under a full moon They all got down to the Cinderella quick step In living color, cheekbones like Johnny Depp When the whip came down it was no joke Came too soon, half drunk under a full moon Yeah
  • There’s a snakeskin bedroom Bang in the middle Of a funny little place called Hell, oh well Everybody there’s got trouble by the dozen It’s a lonely little place to dwell Hope I don’t make the trip through the floor You told me once «I want it but you wanted it more» I know kung fu you know nothing But together we can make it real, good deal Kicking our own way out of every prison With my brains and your high heels Love your myth coupled with your vast ocean Take my eyes as the prize for your devotion Oh take me to El Ray I got this real need to pray Come find me where the vampires All keep their heads on display I’m a new man living in a old skin I’ve been dead to you ever since Berlin Oh teacher I’m restless just say the word And I’ll be blameless Make me a saint I’ll be the voice of restraint I’ll take their bullwhips and stones Without a hint of complaint I met God in Dogtown Isn’t it a funny thing to know you’ve died? Dove’s cried Angels wept just as if I was a brother And sang the blues for my bride I’ve been keeping time in a skeleton soul band Don’t it make your heart just bleed? Indeed Keeping my nose clean hoping I can crash land Back where I’ve got mouths to feed I’ll be home once I’ve paid for my confusion You’ll see me in the fires Of your own disillusion
  • Well here lie the remains Of every girl I’ve loved The princesses of heaven and hell Who thought they knew me well There goes my wishbone Here comes my crooked friend Screaming at you I was dead True right down to the end I was in a fury With a judge and with a jury You could tell I was a wicked man Well there was no one on the wall But the stupid and the small But they always do the best they can Well here lies Mother Brown She always looked so young I was never too easy to please Always on my knees Well there goes my last hope Here comes my bullet train Shooting the hole in my head On the wrong right side of my brain I was getting ready I was shaking I was steady I was pleading to be left alive Well I was digging for the gold Just waiting to be told That my cheating heart would survive I was in a fury With a judge and with a jury You could tell I was a wicked man Well there was no one on the wall But the stupid and the small But they always do the best they can Well here lie the remains of Celine and Lady Death A romance stringed up in a hole Another uneven soul There goes my last wish Here comes my audience Pitchforks pointing my way And it’s no coincidence I was in a bind Of the body and the mind And my mother was the last to know When I told her I was rotten I was better off forgotten And she never even said no, no, no, no, no I was never thick But the thought it wouldn’t click So I never had the best excuse You couldn’t say that I was best So they put me to the test With a never ending soul abuse I was in a fury With a judge and with a jury You could tell I was a wicked man Well there was no one on the wall But the stupid and the small But they always do the best they can I was getting ready I was shaking I was steady I was pleading to be left alive Well I was digging for the gold Just waiting to be told That my cheating heart would survive
  • Well look out Sunshine here they go You’ve got yesterday’s heroes in last nights clothes You’re a game old boy judging by the way you walk Well there’s no use telling me to leave I’ve seen a half a dozen ghosts but I don’t believe I’m a cynical cunt and I’m much too lazy to change And tell my friends I’ll be around Getting nowhere sleeping somewhere With a girl I dreamed oh yeah And sing that old song how does it go? Look oyt Sunshine here’s the punch line No one gets you any more Well look out Sunshine here they come But they only play for money you better not run It’s the sell out show that no one wants to go to, yeah Well there’s non so blind as them that don’t agree They steal the money from you’re pockets almost viciously You’re a sane old boy and you’re much to crazy to change And tell my friends I’ll be around Getting nowhere sleeping somewhere With a girl I dreamed oh yeah And sing that old song how does it go? Look oyt Sunshine here’s the punch line No one gets you any more And what do you mean you were born to love this scene And they would string you up gladly If they knew just how lazy you’d been Tell my friends I’ll be around??? And tell my friends I’ll be around Getting nowhere sleeping somewhere With a girl I dreamed oh yeah And sing that old song how does it go? Look oyt Sunshine here’s the punch line No one gets you any, no one needs you any No one geys you any more
  • I need a pimp hat, shotgun shoes Half a decent mistress and a bed Well I need a pimp hat, shotgun shoes Half a decent mistress and a bed Don’t need no telepathic power No I don’t need no razors in my head She said you know I’m gonna leave here But you know I know I don’t know when She said you know, you know I know I’m leaving But I really just don’t know when Well I’ll leave my message on the ceiling Don’t give my regards to all them friends Well I don’t need you or your psychosis I can get to crazy by myself I don’t need your pointless, dull neurosis Your pathologic tumble into hell You can’t disappoint me anymore Than you know you already done so well Well I’ve been cold cocked torn to shreds Rolled into a mattress for your hunchback Well I’ve been cold cocked torn to shreds Rolled into a mattress for your irrelevant hunchback Well I’ve been to every pick up junction I swear on this day I won’t go back Well I’ve never claimed that I was honest But you can lie like Hitler with a conscience Well I’ve never said that I was honest But you can lie like Hitler with a conscience Well you must be dumb beyond belief If you believe that you can answer all my little questions Well I could swear you stole my answers I saw you dripping blood outside my kitchen Well I could swear you stole my answers I saw you dripping blood outside my kitchen Well you were more than obviously guilty But me, I never had the balls to mention Well you couldn’t love me righteous if you tried Ah, but you can love me evil You know you couldn’t love me righteous if you tried But you can love me evil But you’ll never make me nervous like she did And you’ll never take my cradle Well in the year of the bitch you tore the tail off a witch While I was sleeping In the year of the bitch you tore the tail off a witch While I was sleeping There was no parent to mind Could hardly understand the company you were keeping There’ll be no snowfall in hell But then you know that so well You go there often There’ll be no snowfall in hell But then you know that so well You go there often, don’t ya? You tied the devil to a chair And you promised to bear all of his children Oh my, my
