A Boy Named Goo

Yeah I'm fading and I call out
No one hears me
Never been, never felt, never thought I'd say a word

Weighed, down, safe now

You're naked inside your fear
You can't take back all those years
The shots in the dark from empty guns
Are never heard by anyone
Never heard by anyone

Yeah I'm hiding in the fallout
Now I'm wasted
They don't need me, don't want me, don't hear a word I say

Weighed, down, safe, now

You're naked inside your fear
You can't take back all those years
Shots in the dark from empty guns
Are never heard by anyone
Never heard by anyone

Inside your head
No one's there
And I don't think I'll ever be
And I don't care

You're naked inside your fear
You can't take back all those years
The shots in the dark from empty guns
Are never heard by anyone
Never heard by anyone, by anyone, by anyone

Original from The Lime Spiders

Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know
I drag her around wherever I go
This little woman drives me insane
She's tied to my ankle with a ball and chain

For sixteen years she's been hangin' around
Try'n' to bury me in a hole in the ground
Well I think it's time that I even the score
There's only room for one in this cage of yours

Don't save me when I'm startin' to drown
Don't use me when you don't want me around
Just be my slave girl 'cause that's all I need
So take a little step back to the stone age with me. Go!

Well I hear a strange noise as I lie in my bed
I feel a lotta water drippin' on my head
I look around tried to see through my hair
You left me alone, but do you think I care?

'Cause you moved me when I was takin' my time
You abused me when I'm outta line
You tried to warn me of the danger sign
So watch out, go

Well, you got me in the bondage of another age
You drive me to distraction in a primitive way
I can't control my instincts when I hear her say
"Just come around and see me if you lose your way"

So join my chain gang play along with me
I'll be your caveman, it's basic as can be
I'm not insane, man, I'm just outta my dream

Flat top intervention
Bringing home the new invention
See it there in pieces on the ground
A television war between the cynics and the saints
Flip the dial and that's whose side you're on
Sleeping on the white house lawn ain't never changed a thing
Look at all the washed out hippie dreams

And it's falling all around us
Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?
Falling all around us
I'll turn my head off for a while

Tabloid generation's lost, choking on it's fear
Used to be that's all we had to fear conscience keeps us quiet while the crooked love to speak
There's knowledge wrapped in blankets on the streets
A visionary coward says that anger can be power
As long as there's a victim on tv

And it's falling all around us
Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us
Falling all around us
I'll turn my head off for a while

And my dirty dreams all come alive on my TV screen
And assassination plots, show me what I haven't got
Show me what I love and who I'm supposed to be
Show me everything I need
Show it all to me, show it all to me

And it's falling all around us
Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?
Falling all around us
I'll turn my head off for a while

I'm a fortunate son of a fortunate son
Living large on the wrong side of town
Too many friends and the fun never ends
Drinking and hanging around
I wanna rule the world wanna swallow it whole
At least I could kick it all down

I wanna kick it all down

Eyes wide open I can't see
Eyes wide open what you mean
Eyes wide open I can't seem to be
My eyes wide open I can't see
Eyes wide open what you mean
Eyes wide open I can't seem to be

I don't take the bus and I never walk too far
The furthest I got was my own backyard
With a fist full of cash that somebody else earned
Send me some more when it all got burned
I wanna take control, wanna make it all mine
At least I could kick it all down

I wanna' kick it all down

Eyes wide open I can't see
Eyes wide open what you mean
Eyes wide open I can't seem to be
My eyes wide open I can't see
Eyes wide open what you mean
Eyes wide open I can't seem to be

You never ever know

I'll get what I want if I make up my mind
I'm turning you inside out
I wanna rule the world wanna swallow it whole
I think I'll just kick it all down
I wanna kick it all down

Eyes wide open I can't see
Eyes wide open what you mean
Eyes wide open I can't seem to be
My eyes wide open I can't see
Eyes wide open what you mean
Eyes wide open I can't seem to be
Eyes wide open, eyes wide open

Don't take much looking back to know I took my coffee black then
Nothings different now but nothing seems the same and it's alright
Your optimistic views your hundred dollar running shoes and
Carpel tunnel syndrome we all had a laugh about it
I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all

So long, oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

Don't take much looking back to know I faked that heart attack then
And nothings different now but nothing seems the same and it's alright
You always spoke the truth from circa disco abba boots and
All that showbiz talk, we all had a laugh about it
I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all

So long, oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long
Oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

I gotta get back to where I belong

So long, oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long
Oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

When I was three feet tall
I loved them all and lived life for myself
Falling down for laughs
Your photograph
Some puppets made of felt

Watching life in Oz Thanksgiving eve on grandma's old TV
Dancing roundabout I'd twist and shout for everyone to see

I'mpersonality
It's leaning hard on me

Momma's in a shop
Watching little sister by myself
Robbed a wishing pond
In a fleeting bond
Vowed to share the wealth

Scooping up the coins
A warning shot from some authority
Doesn't matter now but I'll shout out loud for everyone to see

Never got to know you
Did you ever wonder why
Now it's nice to know you
And I'm glad you're doing fine
Think of all the time lost
Was it really lost at all
Now I'm so proud of ya
I'd love to tell you all I see
Listen hard to your realities

I'mpersonality
It's leaning hard on me
