The Death Of John Smith
I've got respect from the community I've got my
bridge game to look forward to I've got this chance, a golden opportunity
As long as I keep doing what I'm supposed to You see my wife and kids,
they depend on me To provide them with nothing but the best I feel it's
my duty, my obligation to live up to the standards society suggusts So
I'll keep on working for their benefit And I'll keep on drinking I'll keep
on believing in my life Another year of slaving and smiling, buying and
trading Living the life of a wealthy man But somehow I don't feel so rich
inside But that doesn't make sense I just had a two week vacation As soon
as I get this operation taken care of, I'll start enjoying the good things
in life So I'll keep on working for the benefits And I'll keep on drinking
I'll keep believing in my life When the pity spins your mind, Darkness
fills your heart, And I won't be around When you're feeling all alone Then
you'll know it's time, To go into the ground When the pity spins your mind,
Darkness fills your heart, And I won't be around I've got my family, friends,
and associates To stand by me as the threshold comes near Within their
faces I see grave concern As I ask myself if their thoughts are sincere
After all these years of being complacent What do I get? Tenderness,
affection, a true sense of love? No! Just a pain through a
body chalk full of regret I'll keep on believing my life still has value
And I'll keep on laughing Why can't I stop laughing? I can't stop
the laughing.
The Longest Line
In the darkest tunnel it's nice to see a light
Not just a headlight Like the one that's heading right for me It would
be nice if things could turn out right Turn out right yeah Don't think
I'll ever see the day I must have done something wrong Or maybe pissed
off God I think of Chinese food when I think of life That's sweet and sour
My life is sweet as saccharine You know 3 week old milk and grapes are
not Not the same, No I am the one Johnny Carcinogen I must have fucked
with some witch In turn she cursed me, cursed my life At the end of the
longest line That's where I will always be If you need to find me, just
go to The end of the longest line But officer that was a yellow light The
light was red, son Insubordination, reckless driving I must be wrong, this
can't be right I don't belong, this world is much to dangerous For someone
lacking luck, like me At the end of the longest line That's where I will
always be If you need to find me, just go to The end of the longest line
At the end of the longest line That's where I will always be At the end
of the longest line
Stranded
She once told me not to listen Find the answers,
intuition Follow no-one, trust your instincts Face the world, find out
it stinks Don't come crying, Don't come crying Don't come cry to me I'm
not your friend, I'm just your lover Don't put your faith, Don't put your
faith in me You cut me up and rob me blind But now I'm fine She told me
about the places I could never find She told me how to walk while by her
side Don't be fooled by teardrops They're worth a thousand lies When I
saw them running down her face I believed in her Stranded, Ah Ah Stranded,
Ah Ah Hit me in the gut like a brick through a window Left me in the gutter
like a wet news rag Sitting alone, thinking out the times we never had
Cause you were my life She told me if and whether We'd spend the night
together She made so many promises I believed in her.
Remnants
Wasting your life on the sidewalk When you can
be out on the street, dodging cars As they go by, the wind goes right through
you Life on the edge of a razor Never knowing when you're to fall Sure
as hell beats never gambling at all Life's too short to just barely exist
Wide spread mediocracy Will suck you up, resist Another number on a list
I don't want it, you can have it You can try, but you won't make me Feel
the things you feel I'll take my chances, till I find a better deal I'll
take my chances, along with all the rest The snail goes over the razor
blade The suicide squad of lemmings parade To their kingdom, where they've
made reservations I have no reservation I don't think my seat's been saved
I'll take my chances, here, right.
Kill All The White Man
The white man call himself civilized Cause he know
how to take over The white man come to pillage my village Now he tell me
I have to bend over Oh yeah, kill all the white man No I don't like the
white man up in me He rape all my people as he rape my country Everything

the day Oh yeah, kill all the white man Oh yeah, kill all the white man
Oh yeah, kill all the white man Oh yeah, kill all the white man.
