You dial one nine hundred lookin’ for a fix You dial one nine hundred and get off on your kicks When you’re all alone, and you’re stranded at home And you’re sitting by the phone, after you’ve been wrecked by a cyclone Dial one nine hundred.. when you’re gettin’ down to the bone.. You dial [...]
The downstairs girls have alot to say about the uptown boys that always get their way There’s a loner on the corner and a stoner on the border A schizo who’s two faces eyes show lots of empty spaces Next to a workingman, who does intend to make a stand in front of his dead [...]

Once I heard a man, talkin’ mostly to himself tellin’ tales he’d heard around the world He said, “Son you’ll see your big time, and you’ll fight your boxing match, and there’s always gonna be that fish that you didn’t catch..” However far your ventures lead you however far your fences stretch There’s something that [...]

It could be the middle of the day , it could be the middle of the night I dream I hear your voice call, is everything alright? It might right now be summer, but it also could be spring It could just be the sound of, the liberty bell that now rings.. What are you [...]
While the sabres rattle, and the forces start to move Threats and reputations force the warlords all to prove The power in their hands, that they have got to send Thousands for to die, to achieve their ends As petty as the conflict, may have beginned As bloody as a war has got to end.. [...]

Time is movin’ quickly I have never seen it go so fast I was tryin’ to recover but my watch was just a minute fast It’s not that I haven’t been there though I just cannot stand to let you go.. And I have to say It shouldn’t be that way What I have to [...]
You’ve got your beauty queen makeup and your hair just right Anyone who gets to see you sure is in for a sight I sit here in wonderment and in disbelief your glance is so uncomfortable just like a petty thief.. {chorus} You are a queen, you are a picture Of what a man is [...]
Caught in numbers, steel machines, face flat on cold desk Errors, systems, directions, could I really care less? Aside from all these trucks and cars, and vacant spiral stares Are visions of infinity from people who don’t care.. These schedules clocks, and stopwatches, and plastic bank accounts It sends a shiver up my spine, and [...]

Well I first saw her by the door lookin’ better than ever before I hadn’t known her more than a while but when I saw her, I threw my bags in a pile.. She’s waiting, waiting, waiting, for her prince to come.. The empty season has come and gone and now I’ve got my true [...]
Sometimes it’s a shame Sometimes it’s game Losin’ sleep, trying to decide, who is to blame Sometimes it is me Sometimes it is not The one who does not deserve, all that he has got Sometimes you can run Sometimes you can hide But you can’t get away from the feelings, buried deep inside Sometimes [...]
Do you remember that day back in 1989? In Beijing some kids built a statue in a square.. They made it out of paper And they sang songs in the street They only wanted to be heard and a new age to greet They didn’t call it revolution They didn’t call nobody wrong.. In that [...]
Heads are turnin’ sidewardsley as she walks up to the stage dressed in black, hair blazin’ red, gold slippers on her feet She’s got a company of boys, she keeps as her slaves in tow But when the night is done, none of them follow where she goes.. The room is a little smokey, in [...]
Where have you wandered since the last time I saw you? To what god now do you pray? We sat in those treetops in those warm afternoons passing that slow time away And the crickets chirped and mosquitos bit the way we knew they would and back in those days sitting there away.. it seemed [...]
