Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and gray Look out on a summer's day With eyes that know the darkness in my soul... Shadows on the hills Sketch the trees and the daffodils Catch the breeze and the winter chills In colors on the snowy linen land. Now I understand What you tried to say, to me And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free: They would not listen; they did not know how -- Perhaps they'll listen now. Starry, Starry night Portraits hung in empty halls Frameless heads on nameless walls With eyes that watch the world and can't forget Like the strangers that you've met The ragged men in ragged clothes The silver thorn, a bloody rose Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow. Now I think I know What you tried to say, to me And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free: They would not listen; they're not listening still -- Perhaps they never will. For they could not love you But still, your love was true And when no hope was left inside On that starry, starry night You took your life as lovers often do -- But I could've told you, Vincent: This world was never meant For one as beautiful as you.
I got something to say, I killed your baby today and it Doesn't matter much to me, as long as it's dead. I got something to say, I raped your mother today and it Doesn't matter much to me, as long as she's spread. Sweet lovely death, I'm waiting for your breath, Let me take one last caress. Sweet lovely death, I'm waiting for your breath, Let me take one last caress. I got something to say, I killed your baby today and it Doesn't matter much to me, as long as it's dead. Sweet lovely death, I'm waiting for your breath, Let me take one last caress.
Rip them down Hold them up Tell them that I'm your gun Pull my trigger I am bigger than Rip them down Hold them up Tell them that I'm your gun Pull my trigger I'm bigger than Mr. Prez in his big white house Listen he sez we're coming out Infiltration-- we're numbing your minds Concentration-- we've done time Rip them down Hold them up Tell them that I'm your gun Pull my trigger I am bigger than Rip them down Hold them up Tell them that I'm your gun Pull my trigger I'm bigger and never step down
I wanna be an alcoholic I wanna be co-drug dependent I wanna be sedated most of the time I wanna sing, I wanna dance I wanna pass out and wet my pants I wanna be an alcoholic man
All of me, why not take all Can't you see I'm no good without you? Take these arms, I want to lose them Take these lips, I'll never use them Go, goodbye left me with eyes How can I go on to without you? You took the best so why not take the rest? Why not take all of me? All of me, why not take all of me Can't you see I'm no good without you? Take these arms, I want to lose them Take these lips, I'll never use them Go, goodbye, left me with eyes to cry How can I go on to without You took the part that once was my hart. Why not take all of me?

At first I thought you were dead But now i see that you're wanted dead Something I did, and they say yeah yeah Blank gen, blank gen(eration) Open your eyes Open your eyes Can't you see what's going on Open your eyes Open your eyes Can't you see what's going wrong Open your eyes Well they tell you lies and you sing along Open your eyes Well they tell you lies and you sing along Something about destruction Television corruption Yeah you've been blind You better make up your mind Open your eyes Open your eyes Can't you see what's going on Open your eyes Open your eyes Can't you see whats going wrong Open your eyes Well they tell you lies and you sing along Open your eyes I don't know the words to this stupid fucking song Open your eyes.... ahhhh Open your eyes
We don't play ska anymore We don't play ska anymore Cuz it sucks We don't play ska anymore We don't play ska anymore Cuz we're shmucks
Brilliant? We're describing something dumb You create to desecrate the villain I've become A prophet, not to be made but heard Speaks in tongues and sarcasm To me it's plain, to you absurd You don't know me let alone my intent Actions do not always self represent I don't feel urgency in explaining My conscience so vaguely clear Seen as jealousy so fast across the earth Flower blooms it's planting fumes The miracle rebirth A cynic, in the search of something more The fragrant air cannot compare To what it was the day before Remember the good old days Remember the sound Remember the sweet mustiness underground No, I don't feel the need for relivin' Some things are better off dead Never thought the furnace Was going to burn us We rode the bounds for so long The comfort of the fire appetize us Looks like we burned ourselves alive Remember the old band we filled ears with pain Nothing to lose there was nothing to gain I don't miss my span of attention I do miss my old friend Tim
