Say What You Will Clarence...karl Sold The Truck

The sun's creeping up and stomping on my dreams
Works all right, party's fine, but sleeping is my scene

The traffic inside your head is tearing you apart
Stick your fingers down my throat and grab on to my heart

And i'm walking a little closer
Gonna rise up, take you away,
Sunday's just another day

Her eyes shine like oceans, her skin is like the earth
Suck the life out of her, you better take her for what she's worth

No free ride, this bus is going charter
So get up off you ass and try a little harder, try a little harder

Walkin' a little closer

When i'm with my friends my troubles end
I'm one of the boys, so self employed

When we're together, could last forever
And i'm almost there

I'm away from the boss, at least for awhile
I'm away from the girls that cramp my style

I'm away from the jerks, i'm away from the works
And i'm almost there, i'm almost there

And it's happy time, happy, happy time
It's happy time, happy time, happy time
Got a happy head, so happy, happy time
I wish i could be this happy all the time

I'll take one of those, and four of those
And more of those, and more of those

I'm away from the jerks, i'm away from the works
And i'm almost there, i'm almost there

stranger


I said "hey brown girl i seen tears through the window of the junk shop
Downtown"
Selling trinkets from your far off homeland, did the promise land let you down?

I said "hey young boy i notice that you ain't afraid to walk next to me"
"old man, you look like you're dying, is that all you want is a quarter from
Me?"

Sometimes i feel like a stranger, i feel like a stranger

I'm just another face in a faceless crowd, i'm just another king in a headless
Crown
I'm so alone. y'know i live here in this city, but this place it just ain't
Nobody's home

Now how many times do i got to tell you?
There's no such thing as a man made world
Now how many times do i got to tell you?
There's no such thing as a man-tamed girl

Sometimes i feel like stranger, and i feel even stranger

I want to buy some flowers for my mother, if i only had another chance
You see, i got a happy family, but that's oh so far away
You see, i've got it all here inside me, but i just can't seem to get it out
But i know with a little imagination we can work this whole goddamn thing out

Oh don't make me feel so strange, and i feel even stranger

Money talks these days and everybody listens
We're whipping out our wallets trying to but what we're missing

Money screams out "i need a slave"
I'm just trying to find some worker to dig my grave

Everybody's listening, everybody's listening, all those eyes are glistening
I need more, a little more, in a little while

I say those???
Machines?

I'm just trying to find somebody to pay my bail
Money screams is says "my soul's for sale"

Everybody's listening, everybody's listening, all those eyes are glistening

I need a maid to pick up my mess, help me in the morning, help me get dressed
I'll pay you when i get paid, i'll pay you when i get paid

Money talks these days, money talks these days
What you gonna do when the criminal says "your money or your life"?
(not used?)
I need more, i'm bored, shine my shoes, wax my floor

Mew father of our powerful land of the free
I ain't doing nothing, i'll just jire someone to do it for me

No matter how small george gets he'll still talk louder than you
Dollars shrieking "ha, ha, ha jokes's on you"

End everybody's listening, all those eyes are glistening

Rich bored, blind, and lone, better buy me a wife
I'm saving up everything to buy me a knife

Protect and serve, slice my nerve
Gotta make sure everybody's gonna get what they deserve

Make my plea, i'm down on my knees
Street cowboy with a badge that says can do what you please
Do what you please, do what you please, do what you please

Rape me, take me, shine your lights so i can't see
Holsters, guns and uniform just don't impress

Blood stained streets, he still looks neat
Somebody's cryin' for help and he's breaking up my party

Please stop breathing down my neck
Took away something that's mine, i want you to give it back
You gotta give it back, now give it back
Walk across my face with your shiny shoes
Bow down to the badge and colors black and blue

It's a blue night, he rides tonight, a show of strength, a polished fight
Take me home, cuz i'm not alone, i'm not alone

The squads breakin' down, but you misjudged power
Get your handcuffs ready, cuz we're coming in numbers
