Piece Of The Action
Somewhere a red-eyes waitress glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner theres a grocery boy stuffin boxes fulla hungry dreams
Someones cleanin up the offices, one window burnin in the dark
Somebodys cryin is there any way in hell
To light a comet from a single spark
Workin so hard I cant remember much about the freedom I been workin for
Felt like a prisoner til I looked in your eyes
And saw a million wide open doors
Ya tell me put a little money away, well every dog will have his day in time
Well I been slavin like a dog and I got nothin to show ya
But a collar and a fist fulla nickels and dimes
Chorus:
I want a piece, a piece of the action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Been livin just like my old man did and neither once of us could get it right
Punchin in when the day begins and punchin out the local boys at night
Theres someone leanin on a peelin porch
And someone leavin on a silver plane
And I finally know the man Id rather be
Girl I wont be back to getcha til they know my name
(chorus)
They hand you a paycheck every week and steal a piece of your soul every day
An I dont need no gold watch in fifty years, baby lets be golden today
(chorus repeats 2x...)

Somewhere a red-eyes waitress glances at another movie magazine

I want you to be mine tonight
You need me, you tease me

All Across The Nation
Somewhere in the city
Theres a struggle going on
Someones making money
Someones doing wrong
Everybody searching for a little piece of gold
(power play? )(fix a face? ) never grow old
Its a shame
Whos gonna take control?
Its a game they play
Whos gonna save your soul?
And theyre never gonna stop
Till they reach the top
All across the nation
Fever takes control
Money is temptation
Money saves your soul
One thing I can tell you
Of this there is no doubt
The rich man needs his comfort
And the poor man does without
Everybody loves somebody
All around the world
But everybody knows
Its the rich man gets the girl
-chorus-
Look at all the little people
(cowering? ) from the rain
Standing at the bus stop
Dreaming bout spain
Here comes the rich man
Driving his car
When he was poor he was sure
He was gonna go far

Baby Come Back To Me
Oh yeah
Baby come back to me, remember how it used to be
Paradise is just out of reach
Baby wont you please come back to me
Another night here alone, staring at the telephone
Willing you to make that call, to bring you back where you belong
Its been threee hard weeks, baby the longest nights
I need to hear your voice and feel your soft skin by my side
We said things that we shouldnt have
I take back every word
Dont you know I can turn back time
Its only you that I pay the price
Chorus:
Baby come back to me, remember how it used to be
Without you Im incomplete
I feel the pain with every heartbeat
Baby come back to me, inside Im dying piece by piece
Paradise is just out of reach
Baby wont you please come back to me
The day that we said goodbye, no holding back the tears weve cried
Searching for the reasons why, we let this love just fade and die
All the riches in the world, all the diamonds and the pearls
Id give to send the winds of change to bring you back to me again
Oh say that we can heal this pain, turn the spark into a flame
I know that we can bring it back again
So baby please cant you see Im down on my knees
Chorus
Baby, baby, baby....
Youre in every, every breath I breathe baby (baby, baby, baby)
Youre in every dream I dream baby (baby, baby, baby)
This time will last forever
Give it all a try, each and every day I pray
Oh girl, yes I pray, please come baby

Fill The Void
Once there was a man who decided he knew everything
Once there was a book that he threw in my face
Once there was an angry mob that marched
Up and down the street
Dont ya know they all called my name
What do they want from me?
Chorus
What do they want from me?
What do they want from me?
What do they want from a poor boy who
Cant believe
They want to fill the void
They want to fill the empty spaces
But I wont let them consume me
With the rest of the lifeless faces
Once there was a little girl
Who thought that she was a queen
And she thought the world was a playground
Filled with sand
So with all her friends she created a fantasy
They all come to me with their demands
What do they want from me?
Chorus
Every little thing is a piece of a larger thing
Ever little fish is a tyrant of the sea
Every little atom is a master of his family
Every single piece calls my name
What do they want from me?

Racing In The Street
(bruce springsteen)
I got a sixty-nine chevy with a 396
Fuelie heads and a hurst on the floor
Shes waiting tonight down in the parking lot
Outside the seven-eleven store
Me and my partner sonny built her straight out of scratch
And he rides with me from town to town
We only run for the money got no strings attached
We shut em up and then we shut em down
Tonight tonight the strips just right
Im gonna blow em off in my first heat
Summers here and the time is right
For racin in the street
We take all the action we can meet
And we cover all the northeast states
When the strip shuts down we run em in the street
>from the fire roads to the interstate
Now some guys they just give up living
And start dying little by little piece by piece
Some guys come home from work and wash up
And go racin in the street
Tonight tonight the strips just right
Im gonna blow em all out of their seats
Calling out around the world
Were going racin in the street
He met her on the strip three years ago
In a camaro with this dude from l.a.
He blew that camaro off his back and he drove that little girl away
But now theres wrinkles around his babys eyes
And she cries herself to sleep at night
When he comes home the house is dark
She says baby did you make it alright?
She sits on the porch of her daddys house
But all her pretty dreams are torn
She stares out alone into the night
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born
For all the shut-down strangers and hot rod angels
Rumbling through this promised land
Tonight my baby and me were gonna ride to the sea
And wash these sins off our hands
Tonight tonight the highways bright
Out of our way mister you best keep
Cause summers here and the time is right
For racin in the street

A Piece Of You
Im just trying to live this life of mine
The more I look, the more Im blind
And all I ask for is piece of mind
And all I want is a piece of you
Well I lost my way today
Back home from work
The snow fell like dust
I felt like dirt
Happens everytime I start to search
For that long lost piece of you
A piece of you
A piece of you
A piece of you
It seems the last time I was sure
Of anything
I sold my heart
I wore your ring
But now, the queen has lost her king
All I want is a piece of you
A piece of you
A piece of you
A piece of you

Hold On To Your Dreams

Monday morning another workin' week ahead
Friday seems so far ahead
The clock keeps ringin', gotta get up out of bed
Maybe this could be the day
Motivation, well it keeps you holon' on
Every step of the way
Headin' in the right direction when you think you're turnin' wrong
Lookin' out for when you stay
So hear what I say
There's no other way, you gotta
CHORUS:
Hold onto your dreams
Cause someday baby
Your ship is gonna come in so
Hold onto your dreams
Cause everything you see
Comes true if you believe in holding
On to your dreams
Well I know sometimes it's hard to see the light
Shinin' at the tunnel's end
And thought the road just goes on and on for miles
So now and then remember
REPEAT CHORUS
Just like your eyes are the window to the soul
Dreams are the highways that lead to your goal
Hold on, hold on, You've got to hold on, hold on

Piece Of Crap (Eddie Vedder & Ministry) (White Label Demo)
Neil Young) (various dates)
Tried to save the trees, bought a plastic bag
The bottom fell out, it was a piece 'a crap...piece of crap...
Wanted an LP, only had CD's
Digitally clean, it was a piece of crap...piece of crap...
Bought myself a can, thought it'd take me far
The dealer was a liar, he was a piece of crap...piece of crap...
Got it from my friend, on him you can depend
I found out in the end, it was a piece of crap...piece of crap...
I'm trying to save the trees, I saw it on TV
They cut the forest down to build a piece of crap...piece of crap...
Picked up a magazine to read about the scene
It didn't tell me beans, it was a piece of crap...piece of crap...
I went back to the store, they gave me four more
The guy told me at the door it was a piece of crap...
It was a piece of crap

Peanut Butter Conspiracy
By: jimmy buffett
1973
Lookin back at my hard luck days
I really do have to laugh
Workin in a dive for twenty six dollars
Spendin it all on grass
We were hungry hard-luck heroes
Tryin just to stay alive
Wed go down to the corner grocery
This is how wed survive
Chorus:
Whos gonna steal the peanut butter
Ill get the can of sardines
Runnin up and down the aisle of the mini mart
Stickin food in our jeans
We never took more than we could eat
There was plenty left on the rack
We all swore if we ever got rich
We would pay the mini mart back
Yes sir! yes sir!
We would pay the mini mart back
It was a two man operation
Had it all down on a note
Ricky would watch that big round mirror
And Id fill up my coat
Then wed head for the check-out aisle
With a lemon and a bottle of beer
Into the car, got to make it on home
Suppertimes getting near
Chorus:
So whos gonna steal the peanut butter
Ill get the can of sardines
Runnin up and down the aisle of the mini mart
Stickin food in our jeans
Never took more than we could eat
There was plenty left on the rack
We all swore if we ever got rich
We would pay the mini mart back
Yes sir! yes sir!
We would pay the mini mart back
I guess every good picker has had some hard times
I sure had my share
Its really kinda funny to laugh at em now
But I dont want to go back there
So every now and then when Im in the grocery
Ill take a little but not much
cause you never know when those hard timesll hitcha
And I dont want to lose my touch
Chorus:
So whos gonna steal the peanut butter
Ill get the can of sardines
Runnin up and down the aisle of the mini mart
Stickin food in our jeans
We never took more than we could eat
There was plenty left on the rack
We all swore if we ever got rich
We would pay the mini mart back
Yes sir! yes sir!

Rock & Roll Hell
Been under fire sixteen years, just waitin for his time to come
He fought the lies, fought back the tears, cant wait to hear that starting gun
There aint nobody gonna step on his dreams
So he held his hands high and screamed
Chorus:
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell
Hes on the edge, he can feel it in his heart
This time the pressures really on
Hes gonna fight it, might even steal a guitar
This time tomorrow hell be gone
There aint nobody gonna tell him what to do
Think hes a little like me and you
Chorus
Hes on the run, wont stand for second place, but his turn may never come
Hes not a victim, you can see it in his face
But he cant see what hes become
Well, he wants it bad, but he wants no charity
He seems to think its his destiny
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell

Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do

While it's still free
I'm gonna soak up the sun

Don't have no master suite

You have a fancy ride, but baby
I'm the one who has the key
Every time I turn around
I'm looking up, you're looking down
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do
Maybe I am crazy too

Got my 45 on
So I can rock on.

Tv Movie
I woke up last night shaking from a dream
For in that dream I died
My wife rolled over and told me
That my life would be immortalized
Not in some major motion picture
Or great american novel, you see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Chorus:
Well now, its one two three you take the money
Yeah its as easy as a b c
Yeah theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Well they can change my name or they can leave it
They can change my story too
Or they can make me black or chinese
And do things that I never did do
Theyre gonna give my life a whole new ending
And put me in prime time first-run
And when its over, what I did there will be what I done
Now I dont want my name in a history book
Nobodys ever gonna see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me

Well Im a shoe-in for a sponsor
Goodyear blimp and radial wheels
Somebody had a meeting somewhere
Somehow somebody made a deal
Well I was one of them kinds of stories
That everybody liked to see

No long soliloquy
No theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me

Down the road that would lead me right into your arms
Destiny told me that you were the one
Stars fill the sky now I've finally found you

Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
I thought I was wasting time
Living in hope that I'd find a new love
Love can be so unkind
How could it be you and me took so long
To discover that dreams do come true
Everything's changed since the day I met you
The sun's gonna shine every time we're together
(Chorus 2x)
Yesterday has gone
And from this moment on you will see
This will be a forever lasting love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love

Give you love 2x
