Love Yer Brain
Sometimes I dont know what to think about the world
When this guy is burnin up in the street with gasoline
And the flames show no mercy
So when you really need someone to talk to you
It doesnt always work like its supposed to
You can love yer brain
Even if it slips down the drain
Man, Im not no drug addict
But a persons gotta have something
To keep him from going insane
Well, this man kills this other man
Whos killed this other man, so its okay
And this fourteen year olds sittin in the electric chair
Smilin and smokin a cigarette
So I guess I was right all along readin mad magazine

She's In Fashion
She's the face on the radio
She's the body on the morning show
She's there shaking it out on the scene
And she's the colour of a magazine
[chorus]
And she's in fashion
Ouh Ouh Ouh
And she's in fashion
Ouh Ouh Ouh
She's employed where the sun don't set
And she's the shape of a cigarette
And she's the shake of a tambourine
And she's the colour of a magazine
[chorus]
[bridge]
Ah Ah
And if she tells you two is one
Then two is one my love
Ah Ah
And if she tells you you should know
Then you should know my love
She is strung out on a TV dream
And she's the taste of the gasoline
And she's as similar as you can get
To the shape of a cigarette

Me
I hear you talk about your family life
I wish I knew just what that means
I guess my mother never loved my dad
And now I wear it on my sleeve
My sister called me just the other day
It felt so good to hear her voice
My problem is I dont have much to say
I guess she doesnt have a choice, and Im sorry
Look at me Im so pathetic
I cant believe Im just an addict
Ive never needed anyone to help me
Im begging you to please come save me from myself, save me from my...
My mothers always tried to change herself
She never learned to let things be
She doesnt know how bad she messed me up
cause now she seems so fake to me but I love her
Look at me Im so pathetic
I cant believe Im just an addict
Ive never needed anyone to help me
Im begging you to please come save me from myself, save me from myself
If you push me then I wont fall
Ive been programmed to take it all
And shove it way down inside
Like my father (2x)
Im so pathetic
I cant believe Im just an addict
Ive never needed anyone to help me (Im failing it)
Im begging you to please come save me from myself
I hear you talk about your family life
I wish I knew just what that means

Work It Out
You know I got a thing for you
I know you got a thing for me too
So tell me baby whats it gonna be ooh
Here we are alone again
Just like before we had a chance
For romance baby
And now its slippin out our hands baby
Oh well
Sittin here aint got much to talk about
What we gonna do to work it out
Cause this heres not enough
We need changed
Sittin here aint got much to talk about
What we gonna do to work it out
Cause this s is gettin old
The love is gone
Whos gonna be the first to say goodbye
How do we choose
When we have so much to lose
Stop it stop pretending nothing is wrong
Just admit this is it so we can move on
Cause I cant go on living my life this way
Day after day just sitting here
Sittin here aint got much to talk about
What we gonna do to work it out
Cause this heres not enough
We need changed
Sittin here aint got much to talk about
What we gonna do to work it out
Cause this s is gettin old
We could be livin like my dream fantasies
Where you hold me in your arms and kiss me so softly
My thoughts would be always of you
And the kind and gentle things you do yeah
But reality pulls me out of my mind
And instead of that Im still sittin here
Sittin here aint got much to talk about
What we gonna do to work it out
Cause this heres not enough
We need changed
Sittin here aint got much to talk about
What we gonna do to work it out
Cause this s is gettin old

Keepin On Yearning
Keepin on smoking, lord I keep on joking
Keepin on moving a round
Leaving everything behind until at last
I find what no ones ever found
Feeling kind of lonely on the telephone
To day I must keep moving on
Leaving everything I know I really need
And so I guess Ill move a long
It doesnt matter if the sun dont shine
It doesnt matter if the rain dont fall
I could think about you all the time
Do you ever think of me at all
Keepin on yearnin, keepin on learnin
Lord I keep turning it on
Leaving everything I know I really love
And so I guess Ill move along
It doesnt matter if the sun dont shine
It doesnt matter if the rain dont fall
I know I could make you mine
You know I wouldnt mind at all
Keepin on smokin, gotta keep on joking
Gotta keep moving around
Leaving everything behind until at last
I find what no ones ever found
It doesnt matter if the sun dont shine
It doesnt matter if the rain dont fall
I could think about you all the time
Do you ever think of me at all
Keepin on yearnin, gotta keep on learnin
Gotta keep turning it on
Leaving everything I know I really love
And so I guess Ill move along
It doesnt matter if the sun dont shine
It doesnt matter if the rain dont fall
I know I could make you mine
You know I wouldnt mind at all

Smokin In The Boys Room
(talk)
Did you ever seem to have one of those days
When everyone seemed to be on your case
From your teacher all the waydown to your best girlfriend
Well, that used to happen to me all the time
But I found a way to get out of it
Sittin in the classroom thinkin its a drag
Listening to the teacher rap--just aint my bag
When two bells ring you know its my cue
Gonna meet the boys on floor number 2
Smokin in the boys room
Smokin in the boys room
Teacher dont you fill me up with your rules
Everybody knows that smokin aint allowed in school
Checkin out the halls makin sure the coast is clear
Lookin in the stalls--nah, there aint nobody here
My buddies sixx, mick & tom
To get caught would surely be the death of us all
Smokin in the boys room
Smokin in the boys room
Teacher dont you fill me up with your rules
Everybody knows that smokin aint allowed in school
Put me to work in the school bookstore
Check-out counter, and I got bored
Teacher was lookin for me all around
Two hours later you know where I was found
Smokin in the boys room
Smokin in the boys room
Teacher dont you fill me up with your rules
Everybody knows that smokin aint allowed in school
Smokin in the boys room
Smokin in the boys room
Smokin in the boys room
Smokin in the boys room
Teacher dont you fill me up with your rules
Everybody knows that smokin aint allowed in school
One more time
Smokin in the boys room
Smokin in the boys room
Teacher I aint foolin around with your rules
Everybody knows that smokin aint allowed in school

Dont Talk To Me About Work
A perfect day to get out of bed
Shower, dress, shave, kiss you on the head
Then I hit the office and my head starts to swim
A perfect day to just walk around
See a violent movie, check the sounds
But even on the street
When I hear a phone ring my heart starts to beat
When I get home I dont want you to speak
Dont talk to me about work
Please dont talk to me about work
Im up to my eyeballs in dirt
With work, with work
How many dollars, how many sales
How many liars, how many tales
How many insults must you take in this one life
Im in prison most of the day
So please excuse me, if I get this way
But I have got obligations to keep
So be very careful when you speak
Dont talk to me about work
Please dont talk to me about work
Im up to my eyeballs in dirt
With work, with work
Please dont talk to me about work
Dont you talk to me about work
Im up to my eyeballs in dirt
With work, with work
Dont talk to me about work
Dont you talk to me about work
Dont you talk to me about work
Please dont talk to me about work
Dont you talk to me about work
Please dont talk to me about work
Dont you talk to me about work
Please dont talk to me about work
Dont you talk to me about work
Please dont talk to me about work

What Are We Doing
What am I doing in a place like this
When its painfully clear that my face dont fit?
What am I doing acting identikit,
When all I want to do is to be the opposite?
Why am i, why are you,
Whos pretending just whos fooling who
Do we go our way or join in their merry queue.
What are we doing in the pouring rain
Walking hand in hand, I gotta be out of my brain.
What are we doing, is it all for show
Are we drifting along, going along with the flow.
I dont know, I wish I knew
Is it me or you whos fooling
What a bore, wheres the door
Are we just for decoration?
What am I doing to you?
What are you doing to me too?
What are they doing to us?
Someone help me, tell me truly.
What are we doing in a place like this
Trying to prove to the world that we really exist
Standing around with all the egotists
Sticking out like a zit knickers all in a twist.
Why are we? I dont know,
Are we merely going with the flow
To prove, who we know
Or drifting along acting a part in a show?
Why am I going through this?
Why are you going through this too?
What are they doing to us?
Someone help me, tell me truly.
So do we go our own way
Or do we join their merry queue
Pretending its o.k.
Them or us, whos fooling who?
Why are we standing in the acid rain
Watching industrial waste trickling down the drain?
What are we doing under the nuclear glow
What we all gonna do? where we all gonna go?
What are we doing?
What are we doing?

The Getaway
Here I am again talkin' to myself sittin at a red light
Both hands on the wheel
How am I supposed to feel
So much runnin through my mind
First you wanna be free
Now you say you need me
Givin mixed signals and signs
It's so hard to let you in
Thinkin you might slam the breaks again
(CHORUS):
Put the peddle down
Headin out of town
Gotta make a getaway
The traffic in my brain's drivin me insane
This is more than I can take
You told me that you love me first
Then throw your heart into reverse
I've gotta get away
(SPOKEN):
I can't keep coming back to you
Every time you're in the mood
To whisper something sweet in my ear
So hard to move on
Cause every time I think you're gone
You show up in my rear view mirror
Is this just a detour
Cause I've gotta be sure
That you really mean what you say
It's so hard to let you in
Thinkin you might slam the breaks again
CHORUS
To a place where I can be re-defined
Where you're out of sight
And you're out of mind
But the truth is I can't even say goodbye
Here I am again talkin' to myself sittin' at a red light
Both hands on the wheel how am I supposed to feel
So much runnin' through my mind

Burning Up
Im burnin up, Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
Im burnin up, Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
You let me down, turned me round, you messed around with my heart
What kind of woman with a smile on her face
Can tear your whole world apart, hey
Im on fire, I feel it burnin up, Im on fire
Im burnin up, burnin up, Im burnin up every night
Im burnin up, burnin up, and burnin up can feel so right
I see the smoke, I feel the heat, my life is going up in flames
How could you be so indiscrete, and still be so unashamed, hey
Im on fire, I feel it burnin up, Im on fire
Hey you said youd never leave me, you said wed never be apart
You turned out to be a liar, and left me with a broken heart
Why did you do it babe, yeah
(solo)
Im on fire, Im burnin inside, Im on fire, why did you do it baby
Ooh Im burnin up, Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
Ooh Im burnin up, see Im burnin up, Im burnin up for your love
Watch me burn, see me burnin, cause my hearts on fire
Watch me burn, see me burnin up for your love
Watch me burn, see me burnin up for your love
Watch me burn...

Burning Down
If it takes them so long, so long to say yes, why dont they just say no
We dont need anyone to be put to the test, why dont they let us be
Chorus:
Livin for the right to be, livin for the right
Livin for the right to be, livin for the right
Livin for the right to be free
We needed a plan, we needed defences, they couldnt raise a smile
As the world looked down, they raided our senses, there can be no reconcile
(chorus)
Burnin down, burnin down, burnin down, burnin down
There was a time in our life was taken for granted, itll never come again
Our flower is dead, the seed is unplanted, they put it all to the flame
Burnin down, burnin down, burnin down, burnin down
Burnin down, burnin down, burnin down, burnin down
(chorus)
Burnin down, burnin down
Burnin down, burnin down, burnin down, burnin down...

Everybodys Selling Something
More 4/4s in the neighborhood
Banging on the same guitar
Dreaming of living in hollywood
Puffing on a big cigar
Prima ballerina in a magazine
Call her on the telephone
Tell her that youre sending up a limousine
She say: I dont know...
I know where to go!
Now 4/4s in a different mood
Thinks hes gonna change the world
Making all the money that some others should
Guess its cause we dont deserve
Meet a lot of people in a magazine
Tell you where not to go
Tell you that Im living out a fantasy
You say: you dont know
They play me on the radio
You gotta walk before you crawl
Remember everybodys selling something
You gotta talk before you know
Remember everybodys selling something
Theres like a racket on the ball
Remember everybody wants attention
You gotta rock before you roll
Remember everybodys selling something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Now!
Now 4/4s into mother earth
Hurry up and wait t.v.
Funny how your lifell take a different turn
And how you get to dance for free
See a lot of freedom in your magazine?
Does it tell you what you want to know?
Tell you once and maybe twice and maybe three times
Thats all right!
Were coming out in stereo!!!
You gotta walk before you crawl
Remember everybodys selling something
You gotta talk before you know
Remember everybodys selling something
Theres like a racket on the ball
Remember everybody wants attention
You gotta rock before you roll
Remember everybodys selling something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Now!
Sell me something
Sell me something
Sell me something
Now!

Burning Up
Said youre burnin up inside, no one seems to tell
Youre living from a personalized manual from hell
Life is pretty easy when its from my easy chair
And youre burnin up inside and no one cares
Said you had enough this time, cause time dont treat you well
You always cried coincidence, while I drew parallel
Life it seems so easy when its from my easy chair
And youre burnin up inside, burnin up inside
Burnin up inside and you hurt me!
Try to take my hand tonight, Ill show you where to start
cause every word that left your lips is like a needle through my heart
And life it seems so easy when its from my easy chair and youre burnin up inside, burnin up inside
Burnin up inside and you hurt my eyes
(cause youre burnin up inside)
Hurt my eyes
(cause youre burnin up inside)
Hurt my eyes

Gotta Find Me A Better Day
I been gettin lonely, too much these days.
I been gettin lonely, I guess I better get away.
But where can I go thats real? lifes a stage on a ferris wheel.
And the actors are all fighting just to see who gets the lead in the play.
Oh, no, no.
I gotta find me a better day.
Talk about down, I feel so lonely.
Talk about down, Im startin to worry.
Dont really want to be all alone. I cant get along with the chicks at home.
The world just dont seem right, my head is spinnin, and I hate whats goin down.
You gotta find me a better day.
Oh, gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
You gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
You gotta find me a better day.

Inside You
All I ever get from you
Are attitudes and broken rules but...
I just wanna feel your love beside me
A new day is gonna come
Together to sing my song
Got to feel the melody inside you
I wanna be, I wanna be inside you
I wanna feel, I wanna feel inside you
Love's fire burnin' in my brain
Love's fire gonna drive me insane
I wanna be, I wanna be inside you
Since your flowing through my veins
I ain't never felt the same
Feels like a whole new world inside me
I'm never gonna let you go
Gotta let your feelings show
Never, never leave the love inside you
I wanna be, I wanna be inside you

Love's fire burnin' in my brain
Love's fire gonna drive me insane

I'm Sick Of It
I'm sick, sick, sick of cigarette addiction
I'm sick of movies and their dishonest depiction
That smoking is glamorous, sophisticated and cool
When what it really is is something that rules
The cigarette addict from morning to night
And all the hours in between, they can never take flight
From the constant nagging fear that they must inhale the fumes
Of a deadly poison that will lead them to their doom
A cigarette addict can barely do a thing
Without a cigarette, it's got them on a string
They have to smoke it now, it just cannot wait
And then, another and another, they've really taken the bait
A cigarette addict is as helpless as a lamb
On a frosty hillside with no mother to keep it warm
Their mind is so confused that they actually believe
A cigarette is their saviour, they are so deceived
(Sydney, Australia - 2003)

Poetry Readers
Note-Rewrite of the hit song, Single Ladies.
My own twisted sense of humor hopefully comes through this piece
All you poetry readers (7X)
Now if my naughty poetry ways got you fed up
Throw your pens up
Up in this writer's club, gettin' 'em all choked up
Jealous
Cos I'm not afraid to be doin' my own thing
Makes ya wanna trip
Cos some big name publisher noticed me
I'm gettin' big notice from him, he gettin' big notice from me
Won't pay your childness any attention
Cuz I've paid my dues for 20 long years
Ya got no right to be mad at me
Chorus
Cuz if you don't like it then you shoud't be readin' it
If you don't like it then you should't be readin' it
Don't be mad once you see someone big wants it
If you don't like it then you don't have to be readin' it
Wo oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh oh (2X)
Cuz if you don't like it then you shoud't be readin' it
If you don't like it then you should't be readin' it
Don't be mad once you see someone big wants it
If you don't like it then you don't have to be readin' it
They got my name on their lips, payin' me the big tips
For my prose tighter then my Dereon jeans
Acting up, bet ya would love to spit in my coffee cup
I could care less what you think
I need no permission, did I mention
Not gonna pay your childness any attention
Cos you have't yet earned your turn
So now sit back, relax and learn
What a real writer is supposed to be
Cuz if you don't like it then you should't be readin' it
If you don't like it then you should't be readin' it
Don't be mad once you see someone big wants it
If you don't like it then you don't have to be readin' it
Cuz if you don't like it then you shoud't be readin' it
If you don't like it then you should't be readin' it
Don't be mad once you see someone big wants it
If you don't like it then you don't have to be readin' it
Wo oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh oh
Don't try to hold me back from telling the real truth about the world
I'm just that kind of girl
You gotta deal with it
Fame is what I deserve, riches what I prefer
From this man who has promised that he will make me, take me
Deliver me to my destiny, to infinity and beyond
Fall to your knees
Beg me to forgive
Say that at last you've been owned
If you don't flip over your opinions of me
You'll soon be jobless and alone
And then like a ghost what little talents you do have will be gone
All the poetry readers (7X)
Now if you're fed up with me
Throw you pens up
Wo oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh oh (2X)
Cuz if you don't like it then you shoud't be readin' it
If you don't like it then you should't be readin' it
Don't be mad once you see someone big wants it
If you don't like it then you don't have to be readin' it
Woo oh oh oh

Getting ready to break, get ready to go
Get your shoes off an shake, get your head down and blow
Ya gotta keep that woman firin
You gotta keep that circuit clean
You gotta make her sound the siren
You gotta hear that lady scream

Heatseeker, I dont, I dont need no life preserver
Dont need no one to hose me down
To hose me down, here it comes

Wanna see you get up, see the whites of your eyes

Im gonna measure you, gonna try you for size

Ya gotta keep that motor turnin
Ya gotta keep that engine clean
Ya gotta keep those tyres burnin

Dont need no one to hose me down

Gasoline
Houses haunted
I just want to go for a ride
Out an on
Thought Id set this room a light
Left alone
Forever and for crimes unclear
With my patience gone
Someone take me far from here
Burn that gasoline
Yea
Burn that gasoline
New day only
Another day in solitude
Houses honest
Clearly more than I can bare
Drain me all
Before I set my world on fire
I am gone
The sun will never set tonight
Burn that gasoline
Yea
Burn that gasoline
No more forests
Only a can on red
Says danger on it
I have found another way
Burn that gasoline
Yea
Burn that gasoline
Burn it all the way
Burn it all the way
