1. New World
Time people might say
Isn't it grand and sometimes unfair?
Climb as high as you can
Talk to the stars and kiss them for me
Is this your world? So far away
All that you know, all gone away
Life isn't it vague?
Haziness, thoughts of one's reason to live
Fly so far away
Over the clouds and wait for me there
Is this your world? So far away
All that you know, all gone away, so far away
As I watched the sun touch down
To the last point of a dark, pale, violent night
Endless thoughts flowed through my mind
Like faint rainbows caressing the skies
We are the new world love clan
Crimes based on position
Not of a constant just a transition
Love is what they say
Binding the last safe thing but steals it away
Is this your world? So far away
All that you know, all gone away
Is this your world? So far away
All that you know, all gone away
Is this your world?
2. What You Say
Let's say you take the pain
To far and distant places
And if you ask of me
I'll tell you all the stories of life
And when you get there
You seek solace in their faces
No longer searching for
The light within the tower of love
What you say and what you do
Is a contradiction to the
Life that's safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
What you say and what you do
Is a contradiction to the
Life that's safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
I dreamt the blue skies
Came crumbling down to pieces
It's like the world is simply
Closing in and holding me down
I've seen the pain, the hate
And death without a reason
I've walked between line of reality
And earthly escape
What you say and what you do
Is a contradiction to the
Life that's safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
What you say and what you do
Is a contradiction to the
Life that's safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
Let's say you take the pain
To far and distant places
And if you ask of me
I'll tell you all the stories of life
And when you get there
You seek solace in their faces
No longer searching for
The light within the tower of love
What you say and what you do
Is a contradiction to the
Life that's safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
What you say and what you do
Is a contradiction to the
Life that's safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
What you say and what you do
(What you say and what you do)
What you say and what you do
(What you say and what you do)
What you say and what you do
(What you say and what you do)
What you say and what you do
(What you say, what you say)
What you say and what you do
(What you say and what you do)
3. What Do You Do
What do you do, What do you do
People want to know where I go,How I Think
And then they ask me when I'm going to do it
They're always asking questions, Butting deep into my life
They wanna know what I do Every Minute
They say "What do you do!!?"
Well What's it to you? ya know..."How do ya do?!!"
Well..I'm fine Thank You
What do you do?!! Well I do what I do
And that's what I will do
What do you do!-Same as you do!
What do you do!-Same as you do!
Same as you do!
What do you do!-Same as you do!
What do you do!-Same as you do!
They say you look just like a Whore in a Church
You know I think I'm gonna stay away from YOU, YOU, YOU
And that's what we will do
They say "What do you do!!?"
Well What's it to you? ya know..."How do ya do?!!"
Well..I'm fine Thank You
What do you do?!! Well I do what I do
And that's what I will do
What do you do!-Same as you do!

I could be walking with two chicks under my arms
And here is this carload of Big, Fat Balden guys driving by
And they're Still calling me a FAGGOT!
They say "What do you do!!?"
Well What's it to you? ya know..."How do ya do?!!"
Well..I'm fine thank you

What do you do!-Same as you do!
What do you do!-Same as you do!
Same as you do!
What do you do!-Same as you do!
What do you do!-Same as you do!
4. Suzy
Suzy had a dream
Of what she could not tell
She only guarantees
It'll take you straight to Hell
Sunday was a day
When we prayed up to the skies
Doesn't change the fact
That we all soon die
Stand right on the line
The line of dreams and fate
And if we should bail
We'll find someone to hate
It's so hard to walk upon the line
Sometimes
It only leads you back
Where you were found
One day we will see
The little red light's enough
'Til then we'll pull ourselves
Down from high above
It's so hard to walk upon the line
Sometimes
It only leads you back
Where you were found
It's so hard to walk upon the line
Sometimes
It only leads you back
Where you were found
Yeah!
It's so hard to walk upon the line
Sometimes
It only leads you back
Where you were found
5. Colors
I can see the future deep inside tomorrow
I can smell the money, the way you feel
Guarding all the children, is not love the answer
you cannot pretend your life is real...
[Chorus (x2):]
Can you see the colors
changing just inside tomorrows skies,
can you feel the winds of change
blowing upon our lives
Can you see the future well within your sorrow
beyond your discerning the fatal reel
Guarding all the children, is not love the answer
you cannot pretend your life is real...
[Chorus (x2):]
Can you see the colors
changing just inside tomorrows skies,
can you feel the winds of change
blowing upon our lives
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus (x8)]
6. Coming Home
He says she said that the counters in the room was a paranoia
It's hard to believe the walls can breathe
But I see it in my eyes
I see it in my eyes
Pretty girls with painted faces
Dancing for the boys
Crazy dreams just how it seems
As you know she slowly passed me by
Coming home, oh-oh-oh
I'm coming home, oh-oh-oh
Coming home, oh-oh-oh
Flying high to paper skies
Soaring through the heavens of shame
Find me now I never left the ground
Only how the stars remain the same
So the stars remain the same
So they remain the same
Coming home
Well I'm coming home, oh-oh-oh
Coming home, oh-oh-oh
Coming home, oh-oh-oh
It's always the beautiful ones that let you down
They fall in love with the lust
They fall in love with sex
They fall in love with the faith
The faith, the faith, the faith in Hell
Coming home,
A-well I'm coming home, oh-oh-oh
Coming home, oh-oh-oh
Coming home, oh-oh-oh
A-well it's one small thing I say to you
Is always keep control
Pretty girls with their painted faces
Dancing for the boys
Are coming home, home, home
Are coming home, oh-oh-oh
Coming home, Coming home
7. Love Of God
Father know, woman cries
No one looks into those eyes
Stories told a thousand times
Which a fool always buys
Fields of fire, electric sight
Burned my flesh alive tonight
Rose of love, trees of life
Now I'm all a flame
For the love of God
Shining through, feeling all your pain
For the love of God
Shining through, feeling all your pain
Spend your life, searched your soul
A moments glory, a dream of gold
Rays of light, stain glass walls
Within his house, the angels call
Sister slaves, brother fights
Mental walls divide the light
Cast in stone, world of lies
Now I'm all a flame
8. Down By The Ocean
Down by the ocean
Where the little girls play
Down by the ocean
Where the little girls play
Sweet Larissa wants candy
Johnny wants her to stay
Sweet Larissa wants Johnny
But Johnny thinks he's gay
Time's always changing
And I don't know what to say
Same old story
Just a different day
Upstairs, turn right, take a look around
Your mama's not at home (home)
Johnny's got a need
Johnny's got a needle
Johnny feels at home
Time's always changing
And I don't know what to say
Same old story
Just a different day
So it's just a
Just a different day
Hmmm
Down by the ocean
Where the little girls play
Down by the ocean
Where the little girls play
Sweet Larissa wants candy
Johnny wants her to stay
Sweet Larissa wants Johnny
But Johnny thinks he's gay
Hey!
Time's always changing
And I don't know what to say
Same old story
But it's just a different day
Time's always changing
And I don't remember what to say
Same old story
Just a different day
9. Acid Rain
Rain, rain, acid rain
Don't come back for another day
I wash my face in the sea of blood
I wash my face in the sea of blood
Rain, where are you hiding?
Gotta, gotta get away
Get away, get away
I walked on the wings of your mother's schemes
I walked on the water and I floated on streams
Went to the mountain, oh, what did I see?
A [Incomprehensible] castle up on that hill
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, oh no
Gotta, gotta get away
Get away, get away
Rain, rain, acid rain
Don't come back for another day
I wash my face in the sea of blood
I wash my face in the sea of blood
Yeah, oh no
Gotta, gotta get away
I'll get away, I'll get away
Rain
Gotta, gotta get away
Hey, hey now, no, no, no
Gotta, gotta get away
10. My Life
Father says he is the only one
And even if he is the only one
I find him so confusing still today
Mother says she is the only one
And even if she is the only one
She was the one I needed her today
She was the one I needed her today
You know I never tried to hurt you
I never tried you know I really never tried
Somehow I find I really need you
I'll never, ever, ever leave you
You never ever will believe me
[Chorus:]
Even if you walked across the skies
I'll be with you tonight
Even if you told a thousand lies
I'd still believe you
All alone along the sea I dream of you
You know I need you here with me
The emptiness inside my heart
Your an angel well within my
Your and angel well within my sight
Sister says she was the only one
And even if she was the only one
My life was just completed yesterday
Darling say that you're the only one
And if you say that you're the only one
My life was just completed here today
My life was just completed here today
I find him so confusing still today
Mother says she is the only one
And even if she is the only one
She was the one I needed her today
She was the one I needed her today
You know I never tried to hurt you
I never tried you know I really never tried
Somehow I find I really need you
I'll never, ever, ever leave you
You never ever will believe me
[Chorus:]
Even if you walked across the skies
I'll be with you tonight
Even if you told a thousand lies
I'd still believe you
All alone along the sea I dream of you
You know I need you here with me
The emptiness inside my heart
Your an angel well within my
Your and angel well within my sight
11. Month Of Sundays
12. Ugly
On top of spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball........
When somebody sneezed,
It rolled off the table...and on to the floor,
Then my poor meatball......
Rolled right out the door,
It rolled in the flowers...,
And under a bush now my poor meatball is nothing but mush.
13. Come Take Me Now
Time, I’m dreaming it all away
I can’t find the words to say
But somehow I feel it’s over
God, I’m down on my knees to pray
Life slowly fades away
It just seems to last forever
Home, take me to the place
It’s warm and I’m not afraid
Shelter me from the rain
Lord, come take me now I feel that it’s over
I feel that it`s over
Lord, come take me now I feel that it’s over
I feel that it’s over
Lost, out here without a trace
Feeling all the pain
Wondering if I’m insane
So, you think that yesterday
Is gone away
You wish it was here to stay
It just doesn’t seem the same
Lord, come take me now I feel that it’s over
I feel that it`s over
Lord, come take me now I feel that it’s over
I feel that it’s over
[Guitar solo]
Lord, come take me now I feel that it’s over
I feel that it`s over
Lord, come take me now I feel that it’s over
I feel that it`s over
Take me lord
Take me far away
I said it’s over
Come and take me please, I say
Lord, come and take me now
Come and take me now
14. I.C.U.
When I look into the light
Then I see that the light won't do
See the shade of a daisy fooling you
So you go about your ways
As you did I head [Incomprehensible]
All in your eyes when he sent for you
State your case and then I will follow
No romance, no romance until tomorrow
State your case and I will follow
No romance, no romance until tomorrow
Lives ahead of your time
You're a legend but you never knew
See the shakes in the wake puttin' it back for you
Got to school in these ways
But if you fall, who catches you?
All the walls that you make will never do
So, state your case and I will follow
No romance, no romance until tomorrow
State your case and I will follow
No romance, no romance until tomorrow
I.C.U. in starlight
I don't mind but I'm feeling used
I.C.U. in starlight
And you're blind to what I can do now
I fall down, so fall down
[Incomprehensible] when I'm here when you're down
When they look into the light
Then they see that the light won't do
See the shade of a daisy fooling you
So you go about your ways
As you did, I head [Incomprehensible]
All in your eyes if he sent for you
State your case and I will follow
No romance, no romance until tomorrow
State your case and I will follow
No romance, no romance until tomorrow
I.C.U. in starlight
I don't mind but I'm feeling used
I.C.U. in starlight
And you're blind to what I can do now
I.C.U. in starlight
I don't mind, don't mind
I don't mind, no, no, no
Oh, no
I.C.U. in starlight
And you're blind
It is one thing I like, yeah
