Ghost
let's do it for the frustration, aggravation, masturbation, let's do it for the attention, fascination, education.  alright then, let's forget our troubles, start over, act like nothing's wrong, so great at piecing bits together, pretend that everything is strong.  let's do it for the frustration, aggravation, masturbation, let's do it for the attention, fascination, education.  i like to listen to your stories, you're good at listening to mine, sometimes we spend our lives just talking, become so good at wasting time.  let's do it for the frustration, aggravation, masturbation, let's do it for the attention, fascination, education.  let's do it for the frustration, aggravation, masturbation, let's do it for the attention, fascination, education.

Such & Such
talk about the past as if you own a piece of it,  rattle off the words as though you ever gave a shit, yeah, you're the king, you always get around the truth, you spend your life, you talk of how you lost your youth.  now the secret's out, got you figured out, what you're all about, ain't much, you're still droppin' names, think you'll always be the same, always cryin' such and such.  somehow you got lucky, found yourself an audience, they hang on to your every word, it doesn't make much sense, you're wasting time, it seems you'd change a thing or two, but you remind me that you're only being you.  now the secret's out, got you figured out, what you're all about, ain't much, you're still droppin' names, think you'll always be the same, always cryin' such and such.  don't bother trying, too busy lyin', your mom is cryin'.  i like your band a lot.

The Music, The Message
i never had to think about it all that much, it came to me so easily, then it became a crutch, i took it all for granted, figured it would always be, so solid, set, dependable, and always there for me.  so much a part of us, so much a part of it, we got the music, and the message, so much a part of you, so much a part of me.  we never cared when all those people criticized, we had no problems spotting, what was real and what were lies, despite the changes that we went through, we were always down, you gotta stand the strongest when dissention's all around.  so much a part of us, so much a part of it, we got the music, and the message, so much a part of you, so much a part of me.  so much a part of us, so much a part of it, we got the music, and the message, so much a part of you, so much a part of me.  so much a part of us, so much a part of it, we got the music, and the message, so much a part of you, so much a part of me.

Kinda Future
out of the blue, could we ever really know?  sometimes ya need to, sit back and let it go, day after day, i feel the tension pull me down, i'm starting to figure, i won't always be around.  don't you wish some day you wouldn't have that fear?  no hate to see and there's no hate to hear.  you always said, that you'd work toward better things, doin' whatever, maybe all that work would bring, it's good to be hopeful, when your eyes are open wide, as long as ya feel, so twisted up inside.  don't you wish some day you wouldn't have that fear?  no hate to see and there's no hate to hear.

My Gravity
she's the world to me, in all honesty, yeah she's my gravity, she's my gravity.  i wasn't ready for it this time, and soon i found myself crossing the line, yeah it was easy, i didn't have to try, we somehow got together, her and i.  she's the world to me, in all honesty, yeah she's my gravity, she's my gravity.  there are those days, i can't hold up my head, i can't get started, i can't get out of bed, and then i see her face, it changes everything, she's really down, yeah, she's so hapening.  she's the world to me, in all honesty, yeah she's my gravity, she's my gravity.

See You Tomorrow
first off, i'm not doin' too bad, things could be much worse, for sure, you're so full of nerve and yourself, pity someone who deserves, secondly, about your big plans, yeah i know, i've got em too, it seems you need more motivation, little somethings get ya through.  i'll bet, we'll have this same discussion, ignore the warnings, repercussions, when all sincerity rings hollow, see you sometime, see you tomorrow.  things are easy when you're younger, puppy brains and punching things, but now we walk around so careful, fearful of the ugly things, deep thoughts count when there's compassion, what i've witnessed, i'm amazed, as we grow up, i'd hate to think that, all this thinking's just a phase.  i'll bet, we'll have this same discussion, ignore the warnings, repercussions, when all sincerity rings hollow, see you sometime, see you tomorrow.  i'll bet, we'll have this same discussion, ignore the warnings, repercussions, when all sincerity rings hollow, see you sometime, see you tomorrow.

Get A Different Life
don't you bother criticizing me and what i do, don't you waste your breath explaining what is bugging you, now run along and worry about your own life won't you please, there are those who value what you say, but it ain't me.  we've heard it for the past 10 years, it's gotten really old, you bitch about the way we sound, even how we're sold, did you ever take the time to look into a mirror, if we suck, hey move along, there's other things to hear.  "sellout" this and "sellout" that, at first it made us sore, you called us that while we were sleeping on your girlfriend's floor, we've made mistakes, some stupid ones, but "stayed true" to ourselves, if you can't hang, don't sweat it, you can hang us on a shelf.  we've heard it for the past 10 years, it's gotten really old, you bitch about the way we sound, even how we're sold, did you ever take the time to look into a mirror, if we suck, hey move along, there's other things to hear.  we've heard it for the past 10 years, it's gotten really old, you bitch about the way we sound, even how we're sold, did you ever take the time to look into a mirror, if we suck, hey move along, there's other things to hear.

Talk Box
hear the anger, turn and run, bitter rhetoric, ain't much fun, i thought we could disagree, hear the words, then let it be, listen to another view, get a feel for something new.  but it's different than you think, when all you do is dish out what you hate, you ain't nothing but a fake, you couldn't handle trouble that you make.  entertainment's what you claim, harmless banter, that's so lame, you're so good at dishing out, but not good at the turnabout, cry when someone disses you, conspiracies are nothing new.  but it's different than you think, when all you do is dish out what you hate, you ain't nothing but a fake, you couldn't handle trouble that you make.  but it's different than you think, when all you do is dish out what you hate, you ain't nothing but a fake, you couldn't handle trouble that you make.

My List
sometimes i feel affected, then it all disappears, the rain and clouds above my head, then all that disappears.  i'd understand it, if i could grab it, another wish on my list.  on more day we made it through now, got my list.  got my list.  got my list.  one more time we make it through, yeah, got my list.  got my list.  got my list.  some days i feel protected, then all that disappears, we breathe as two but think as one, and it all disappears.  i'd understand it, if i could grab it, another wish on my list.

First Ya Told Us
first ya told us, "express your mind", with no restrictions, no border lines, so we just figured, we'd find our way, not push much into, the things you say.  then you slammed the door on us, and flaunted your authority, had hoped to see us fail, acted like we were the enemy, but we're here, no we never died, so sorry you wasted your time.  why point a finger, at anyone, why look for reasons, when you've got none, you'll never get it, still you pretend, that you're above it all, my friend.  then you slammed the door on us, and flaunted your authority, had hoped to see us fail, acted like we were the enemy, but we're here, no we never died, so sorry you wasted your time.  then you slammed the door on us, and flaunted your authority, had hoped to see us fail, acted like we were the enemy, but we're here, no we never died, so sorry you wasted your time.

Born Without A Mind
too bad, i feel for you, it's sad as hell to see, you're runnin' with the blinders on, just stay away from me, you blame it on your parents, yeah, your strict conditioning, so bogged down in the ignorance, you're bumping into things.  see the boy out running, born without a mind, he's got his pride and everything, born without a mind.  maybe you're not out and open with your fucked up views, and you don't use the "n-word", that is something you refuse, intolerance that's quiet, makes it just as bad it seems, it's one way or another, you can't have it in between.  see the boy out running, born without a mind, he's got his pride and everything, born without a mind.  see the boy out running, born without a mind, he's got his pride and everything, born without a mind.

Punk Rock Teeth
here we are, right back where we belong again, and all our friends, they're old like us but that depends, this aging thing, so over-rated when you think, don't matter much, as long as your heart won't give in.  sometimes when i get mad, i think about my stupid dreams, at times, i feel that all i've got to show for it is punk rock teeth, these days, i'm standing back, reflecting on the things i see, i'll be here when the others fade, yeah me and all my punk rock teeth.  staring out, i'm lost and out of place without, this simple thing, the way i live's what i'm about, i can't complain, but i don't feel good out in the rain, let's celebrate, no time to waste it all on hate.  sometimes when i get mad, i think about my stupid dreams, at times, i feel that all i've got to show for it is punk rock teeth, these days, i'm standing back, reflecting on the things i see, i'll be here when the others fade, yeah me and all my punk rock teeth.  sometimes when i get mad, i think about my stupid dreams, at times, i feel that all i've got to show for it is punk rock teeth, these days, i'm standing back, reflecting on the things i see, i'll be here when the others fade, yeah me and all my punk rock teeth.

Girl Song
her world is where i've always lived... woah, she brought me here and gave me strenght... woah.  she helped make sense of everything... woah, helped keep me farther from the brink.  this is a girl song, not just another girl song, much more than just a love song, so simple, it's a girl song.  my father never seemed to care... woah, looked for him, he was never there... woah, as "dad", my mom did pretty well... woah, she got us through a lot of hell.  this is a girl song, not just another girl song, much more than just a love song, so simple, it's a girl song.  this is a girl song, not just another girl song, much more than just a love song, so simple, it's a girl song.  this is a girl song, not just another girl song, much more than just a love song, so simple, it's a girl song.

I Can Remember
i can remember, the first time that we played, some redneck bar in reno, guess we should've been afraid, and after that, we'd play whenever we could plug it in, we'd play until the cops or jocks would start some shit with dim.  i can remember, i can remember, i can remember, i can remember.  i can remember, the h.b. kids so well, they'd bus to san francisco, every gig with them was hell, we'd dance along, and sing the songs, til we were black and blue, and everything would go so fast, and there stood me and you.  i can remember, i can remember, i can remember, i can remember.  i can remember, i can remember, i can remember, i can remember.  i can remember, i can remember, i can remember, i can remember.

Even Better Plan
it's not hard to understand, don't let things get out of hand, promises aren't very deep, when you start trouble in your sleep.  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!  here's an even better plan, use your head and not your hands, try it for a solid week, be a "rebel", be unique.  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!  it's not hard to understand, don't let things get out of hand, promises aren't very deep, when you start trouble in your sleep.  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid! we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!  we're not dumb, no, we're just stupid!

The Kids Are United
For once in my life I've got something to say I wanna say it now for now is today A love has been given so why not enjoy So let's all grab and let's all enjoy If the kids are united then we'll never be divided If the kids are united then we'll never be divided Just take a look around you What do you see Kids with feelings like you and me Understand him, he'll understand you For you are him, and he is you If the kids are united then we'll never be divided If the kids are united then we'll never be divided If the kids are united then we'll never be divided If the kids are united then we'll never be divided I don't want to be rejected I don't want to be denied Then its not my misfortune That I've opened up your eyes Freedom is given Speak how you feel I have no freedom How do you feel They can lie to my face But not to my heart If we all stand together It will just be the start If the kids are united then we'll never be divided If the kids are united then we'll never be divided.
