 Grave Dancers Union » Lyrics [+ Lisama +] |
1. _ Without A Trace
I fell in love with a hooker
She laughed in my face
So seriously i took her
I was a disgrace
I was out of line; i was out of place
Out of time to save face
See the open mouth of my suitcase
Sayin' leave this place
Leave without a trace
Leave without a trace
Leave without a trace
I tried to get a good job
With honest pay
I might as well join the mob
The benefits are okay
Standing in the sun with a popsicle
Everything is possible
With a lot of luck and a pretty face
And some time to waste
Leave without a trace
Leave without a trace
Leave without a trace
I tried to dance at a funeral
New orleans style
I joined the grave dancer's union
I had to file
Trying to do the right thing, play it straight
The right thing changes from state to state
Don't forget to take your mace
If you're out walking late
I liked to see your face
You left without a trace
You leave without a trace

2. _ Black Gold
Two boys on a playground
Tryin' to push each other down
See the crowd gather 'round
Nothing attracts a crowd like a crowd
Black gold in a white plight
Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
I don't care 'bout no wheelchair
I've got so much left to do with my life
Moving backwards through time
Never learn, never mind
That side's yours, this side's mine
Brother you ain't my kind
You're a black soldier, white fight
Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
Sure like to feel some pride
But this place just makes me feel sad inside
Mother, do you know where your kids are tonight?
Keeps the kids off the streets
Gives 'em something to do, something to eat
This spot was a playground
This flat land used to be a town
Black gold in a white plight
Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
Sure like to feel some pride
But this place just makes me feel sad inside
Black gold in a white plight
Won't you fill up the tank, let's go for a ride
I don't care 'bout no wheelchair
I've got so much left to do with my life

3. _ Get On Out
I gotta get on
I gotta get on out
All these worried troubled thoughts gotta get on out of my head
Gotta get on out of my head
Will i be on the streets tomorrow
Will i have to beg and borrow
Will i have to go back to the job i left behind
Could you still make it
With a guy who never made it
Would you look into my eyes if i were to go blind
Gotta get on
I gotta get on out
All these worried troubled thoughts gotta get on out of my head
Gotta get on out of my head
Now will you leave me for another
Send me running back to mother
Will i have the time to tell you how i really feel
Am i just getting slower
Or are you just talking faster
Do we need bad disaster to make it plain to see
That all these worried troubled thoughts gotta get on out of my head
Gotta get on out of my head
Do i just feel like cryin'
Cause i'm sick and tried of tryin'
Trying to convince you this ain't how it has to be
The ground you walk on's sacred
The sky above awaits you
So cast all your frustrations to the bottomless sea
Gotta get on
Gotta get on out
All these worried troubled thoughts gotta get on out of my head
Gotta get on out of my head

4. _ Keep It Up
I'm down here waitin' on a shattered heart
I'm gonna put it back together if it tears me apart
If i can keep it up
If i can keep it up
I've been complaining like a broken record
Gonna get what i want if it takes forever
If i can keep it up
If i can keep it up
Though the rain weighs down your wings,
Still the caged bird's got to sing
I know it seems funny tryin' to understand
It's just that things don't always go the way you planned
Still you keep it up
Still you keep it up
Nothin' in the world's gonna keep me down
I'm just a-holdin' out, just a-hangin' round
Tryin' to keep it up
Just to keep it up
Though the rain weighs down your wings,
Still the caged bird's got to sing
Keep it up (x4)
747's gonna take us away
Take us up to heaven, gonna be okay
If we can keep it up
If we can keep it up
Though the rain weighs down your wings,
Still the caged bird's got to sing
Keep it up (x8)

5. _ 99%
I don't own you but i know you're mine
Never disown you, never treat you unkind
But once in a while, you get on my nerves
Once in a while, you get what you deserve
I need you ninety-nine percent of the time
Ninety-nine percent of the time (x3)
If i asked you what's on your mind
Would you say me, would they be thoughts unkind
But once in a while, i'm not myself
Once in a while, i think you're someone else
I want you ninety-nine percent of the time
Ninety-nine percent of the time (x3)
Let's move in together
Happily ever after
I can't touch you but you feel so f*cking fine
Let's just stay like this and waste some more time
Once in a while, you get in my way
Once in a while, you know i've got to say
I love you ninety-nine percent of the time
Ninety-nine percent of the time (x3)

6. _ The Sun Maid
Tell me how you get that shine
You must polish all the time
Though i know your job is thankless
They will thank you up in heaven
Oh, the sun maid
Looking for the shade
Though they say she's not too bright
She takes care of all the light
Without you it's cold and stark
We would all be in the dark
Without the sun maid
She never gets paid
Searching for the shade
Oh the sun maid
You are so taken for granted
With each and every seed that's planted
And the earth is so demanding
All the young girls are out tanning
With the sun maid
She's such an old maid
She never gets laid
Oh the sun maid
Now you're tired, your day is over
Now the moon is one day older

7. _ Homesick
I want to live with you in the fifth dimension
In a dream i've never had
Cause i just can't live like this in a world like this
I just want a kiss goodbye
And we are not of this world
And there's a place for us
Stuck inside this fleeting moment
Tucked away where no one own it
Wrapped up in a haste and by mistake got thrown away
And oh, i am so homesick
But it ain't that bad
Cause i'm homesick for the home i've never had
And though i sometimes get annoyed i know just where i'm at
This is my song of joy
And now i know there are no secret trick, no correct politics
Just liars and lunatics
And we are not of this world
And there's a place for us
Stuck inside this fleeting moment
Tucked away where no one own it
Wrapped up in a haste and by mistake got thrown away
And oh, i am so homesick
But it ain't that bad
Cause i'm homesick for the home i've never had
And though i would not take it personally, it's just the child in me
I never really knew how much i had
Woe is me, i am so homesick
But it ain't that bad
Cause i'm homesick for the home i've never had

8. _ New World
Lives in a little lonely town
No one's around except for the drinking
Nobody ever gets around
But those who leave the township sinking
May you rot in heaven
Gotta be home by seven
And the field burns away
The sky breathes it in
So why sit and wait for the new world to begin
I'm comin' out across your border
With new orders for you to take
I'd really like to take out your daughter
Down in the water, down by the lake
When the cold water's on her skin
I can feel how long it's been
And the neighbors will all be there
And no one will know what to wear
So why sit and wait for the world to begin
I got a lot i gotta do
Just to get through the end of the day
It hardly ever even happens
But i go to sleep the same anyway
And you can't believe in yourself
You can't believe in anyone else
So why sit and wait for the new world to begin

9. _ April Fool
Quittin' after one more last one
Tired of playin' the clown
If i want your opinion i'll ask ya
I can get myself down
Night driving without headlight
Wearin' sunglasses too
Lookin' good but sure don't feel right
Anything to be cool
Doin' hopscotch with my legs tied
Jumpin' rope in wet cement
Black leather in midday sunshine
All your mother's money's spent
Doin' time on the metal detector
Like to drown in your pool
Coverin' up everything that's defective
Anything to be cool
A burning heart could be so cool
Won't you be my fashion victim
Come on, i'm an april fool for you
Holdin' on to what's left of real life
Anything to be cool (x4)
A burning heart like an april fool
Won't you be my fashion victim
Come on, i'm an april fool
I'm a mid-spring snowfall, joke's on you
I'm an april fool for you
I'm an april fool for you
I'm an april fool
(x3)

10. _ Somebody To Shove
Grandfather watches the grandfather clock
And the phone hasn't rang for so long
And the time flies by like a vulture in the sky
Suddenly he breaks into song
I'm waiting by the phone
Waiting for you to call me up and tell me i'm not alone
I'm waiting by the phone
Waiting for you to call me up and tell me i'm not alone
Hello, speak up, is there somebody there?
These hang-ups are getting me down
In a world frozen over with over-exposure
Let's talk it over, let's go out and paint the town
I'm waiting by the phone
Waiting for you to call me up and tell me i'm not alone
Cause i want somebody to shove
I need somebody to shove
I want somebody to shove me
You're a dream for insomniacs, prize in the cracker jacks
All the difference in the world is just a call away
And i'm waiting by the phone
Waiting for you to call me up and tell me i'm not alone
Yes i'm waiting by the phone
I'm waiting for you to call me up and tell me i'm not alone
Cause i want somebody to shove
I need somebody to shove
I want somebody to shove me
Yes i want somebody to shove
I need somebody to shove
I want somebody to shove me

11. _ Runaway Train
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that i couldn't even sleep
So many secrets i couldn't keep
I promised myself i wouldn't weep
One more promise i couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now,
I'm in too deep; there's no way out
This time i have really led myself astray
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like i should be getting somewhere
Somehow i'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did i get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here i am just a-drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train
And everything seems cut and dried,
Day and night, earth and sky,
Somehow i just don't believe it
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like i should be getting somewhere
Somehow i'm neither here nor there
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A little out of touch, a little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like i should be getting somewhere
Somehow i'm neither here nor there
Runaway train, never coming back
Runaway train, tearing up the track
Runaway train, burning in my veins
I run away but it always seems the same

12. _ Growing Into You
You never grow out of mischief making
You never grow out of taking
You never grow out of complicating
When simple things are waiting
But i'm growing into you
I'm growing into you
There's one thing that i know that's perfectly clear
You never grow out of fear
You never grow out of fear
You never grow out of contemplating
When it ain't worth debating
You never grow out of mistake making
You never grow out of faking
But i'm growing into you
I'm growing into you
There's one thing that i know that's perfectly clear
You never grow out of fear
You never grow out of fear
I'm growing into you
I'm growing into you
There's one thing that i know that's perfectly clear
You never grow out of fear (x6)
And will i ever, ever, ever get over it
