better grab a seat if you've got it and ride this out
its MY song on MY time so PICK IT UP!
if you ever thought you'd see his face on your TV
you're mistaken. hes a loser. a nobody.
foolish coward hides in the corporation veil
but in his mind he "made it"
HEY!
can i take the time right now to call you out?
its YOUR mess you left it here COME PICK IT UP!
endless, mindless, lifeless work
i need to find a solid grip
think i'm tired of you makin' a fool out of me
this wasn't the first time
another beating in the modern day regime
but this is the last time
and i'll be there to pick up the scraps that fall to the floor
from the rich man's table, to the places we live
we're the working class slobs we never thought we'd be
HEY!
sometimes when you got it wrong, maybe ya got it right
it's MY mess i left it there YOU PICK IT UP!
endless, mindless, lifeless work
endless, mindless, lifeless work

Dialing Up Home

just a simple equation in your head
you tend to add up whats been happenin'
well times are tough when all your friends are falling out
when your woman's having doubts i'd stick around
but when you hear that highway call, you'll follow
up and down hills you can't see past
dialing up home
well it feels like ages since the last time we saw you
and you're cryin' that you miss us, well we miss you too
it's outrageous that i feel this bent, cause you're just a friend
just a poor man's college plan
a blue collar cover up is what you needed
to make it up to your Mom and Dad
for taking the money and the fun you had
i'm coming down we'll raise some hell tonight
company is my mind on a long 9 hour drive
up and down hills i cant see past
dialing up home
well it feels like ages since the last time we saw you
and you're cryin' that you miss us, well we miss you too
it's outrageous that i feel this bent, cause you're just a friend
company is my mind, on a long drive
dialing up home
well it feels like ages since the last time we saw you
you complain about these old spots, but you liked 'em too!
to be honest things just aren't the same since you moved away

would you notice if i fell off the face of the earth tonight?
and would it be enough room for you this time?
prearranged and in my face i'm blinded by your slight
and i need a stiff drink when i hear i'm not your type, i'm not the one you wanted anyway
just another wasted night on Aliceanna, boys
i always let emotions get the best of me
you better tow the line
or i'm hanging up mine
don't you ever recall
the shit that we've been through
i'm not talking down to you
these boxes of shoes are what remind me of you
and they're strewn about my bedroom floor
i remember a time when all i had was my bike, my girl and rock-n-roll
but those times they passed us by
did you think that i wouldn't notice?
did you think that i wouldn't mind?

it's been a while now since i've seen you
as i walk these streets and avenues
well getting a grip was something i missed back 10 years younger
a loser set up to win, i'm different from all the others
we walked in and they stood at attention
my, my how'd you get by without an education?
GET UP KID, GET UP KID!
nobody's leaving till we finished what we started
GET UP KID, GET UP KID!
its time to shine!
we found our way out
and i wish that i could find a way to explain myself
but watch what you say about my family
'cause we made it our own way
and boy we're hear to stay
got no watch, no shoes, no fancy suits
and ill bet you don't like my attitude
but i'm stuck in a room that people assume i wanna talk to
and i'm thinking it's rude you're bragging that you're a Doctor
oh God, I need you to get me by
'cause i'll never when in the situations they put me in

Taking Office
03:20

8 o'clock AM
a Diplomat wakes for work, but what's he REALLY do?
takes a man to compromise he stares at us while he lies to our faces
and to think that no one doubted him
NEVER think that
we all attend "The Academy" and do big things
taking office
i don't know what i'm supposed to do
i can't believe i'd win this election
between me and the swine, you got your country i got mine
sometimes all you really need is an open mind and a look outside
to see we've been united by the problems we voted for
takes a man to compromise he stares at you while he lies

You Sellout
02:51
|
|||

every time i see another trend come and go
kids are losing sleep trying to keep up
i find myself falling back on old standards
do you really think you're standing out?
move to Cali you can show 'em what you're all about!
if it proves a waste you've got a fail-safe
breaking all the promises you made
it was a simple mistake
it's just not what i had in mind
same dream since '99
i've got some friends and they're standing by my side
i've got some friends on my left and right
we're gonna wear our hearts on our sleeves tonight
well im sure that there's lots you can tell us about when you sell out
we've heard it all before
did it break you heart to learn that the wave you made was only a ripple?
how can you fail when your plan was so simple?

take a look at the kids 'round here
their new style may take a while to get used to
looking back there's alot in this town that's changed
but i got a pen and some friends that still feel the same
we're on your side when you need us
acting like everything's alright
are you alright?
come with me and i'll take you to where your parents never did
and teach some respect to your children
you were my generation
you were my generation too
i'll be damned if i ever give up
the way that i'm thinkin'
we can't keep afloat
our ship is sinkin'
we've drug this out but now we've had enough
could you call on me at a more convenient time?
