Beat a Dead Horse
I understand your undying affection
For the sound of your own voice
It’s satisfying to pretend you’re a hero
When you’re just trying to impress the boys
How far have you got to go
How far have you got to go
How far have you got to go
Before you understand that you have got to let go
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna ride it away
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna ride it away
Your talker keeps talking and
Your thinker keeps thinking
But your actions never seem to change
You keep running faster in one big circle
Where everything stays the same
How far have you got to go
How far have you got to go
How far have you got to go
Before you understand that you have got to let go
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna ride it away
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna ride it away
I believe in freedom
I believe in your freedom to change
You’ve got to find a way shut your mouth
You’ve got to find a way shut your brain
Before the next thought puts you over
Before the next thought puts you over
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna ride it away
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna ride it away
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna drive it away
You beat a dead horse
You beat a dead horse
And then you think you’re gonna drive it away
The Other Kids
I can’t do like the other kids do
I can’t make it like the other kids
Fake it like the other kids
I can’t play like the other kids play
I can’t smile like the other kids
Cry like the other kids
The other kids
The other kids
They get away with everything, the other kids
The other kids
The other kids
Blame everything on all on the other kids
I can’t feel like the other kids feel
Happy like the other kids
Sad like the other kids
The other kids
The other kids
They get everything they want, the other kids
The other kids
The other kids
Take it all, take it all from the other kids
Bell bottoms and a paisley shirt
Hand me downs from my cousin in Toledo
Black Sabbath on an eight track tape
I was the funkiest thing
I was the funkiest thing
The other kids
The other kids
Why can’t you be more like the other kids
The other kids
The other kids
Try and be more like all of the other kids
The other kids
The other kids
Why can’t I just be like all the other kids
The other kids
The other kids
All I ever wanted was to be like the other kids
Runnin around, runnin around, runnin, runnin
Runnin around, runnin around, runnin, runnin
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Stay Down
I’m no longer disappointed
I can’t change the way you feel, no, no
But when you’re wrong
Oh God, you’re so, so wrong
And when you’re gone
Man you’re so, so gone
And I’d say stay down now
I think you should stay down now
Yeah, stay down
You and your ghosts, you’re just exhausting
You and your ghosts, you’ve bled me dry
When I’m wrong
God, I’m oh so wrong
And when I’m gone
I’ll be so, so gone
And I should stay down now
I should stay down now
Aw, stay down
I should stay down now
I should stay down now
Oh God let me stay down now
I should stay down now
Please just stay down now
Just stay down

Everyone I know knows somebody name John
Waiting on the corner looking for and easy
Score to make em happy, score to make em happy
Score to make em happy when they never were before
John gets a long last look at the thing he wants
As It wanders off and disappears into the distance
What he can’t understand, what he won’t understand
Is that that the thing he sees is not the thing he wanted

Thoughts crawl through your head and then through a wire
They’re bounced off the atmosphere and into a satellite
Like a head in a cloud, got your head in the clouds
Got your head in a server, somewhere in Colorado
People talk into the void throwing jeers and barbs
The pressure rises until everyone is angry
They’re just voices in your head, just more voices in our heads
Saying “We never promised you, promised you anything”.

Bakelite and copper cords, naugahyde and plastic floors
Wall to wall shag carpeting
This is future, this is the future

Making Noise
I’m livin in the city, I’m makin my mark
I’m shakin it up, I’m lighting the dark
I’m gonna be somethin, I’m gonna be me
I’m gonna be wishin, I’d watched them leave
I’m gonna be like a setting sun
Never gonna stop til the darkness comes
Nothing feeds me like the sound of my voice
Nothing is as sweet as making noise
Everybody’s dreamin, everything’s a dream
Nothing is ever, as good as it seems
I’m spoiling the story, I’m fucking up the vibe
Your everyday daydream, it’ll eat you alive
I’m gonna drink every drop of rain
Do a little dance and then I’ll do it again
I’m gonna shake like I got no choice
Cause nothing is as sweet as making noise
Sweet babies don’t you lie in wait for me
I got to, I got to go
Sweet babies don’t you lie to your children
They’re not making it, it’s not a show
I’m gonna be like a setting sun
Never gonna stop til the darkness comes
Nothing feeds me like the sound of my voice
Nothing is as sweet as making noise
I’m gonna drink every drop of rain
Do a little dance and then I’ll do it again
I’m gonna shake like I got no choice
Cause nothing is as sweet as making noise
Who We Really Are
Alright, so this is who we really are

But we’re not
No we’re not
We could be so much more to us than this
We could be so much more to us than this
But we’re not
We’re not
I knew that things were bad, but
I just didn’t understand, I didn’t understand
Tear it down and start again
Tear it down but they don’t want to start again
Alright, so this is who we really are
Alright, so this is who we really are
Alright, so this is who we really are
Alright, so this is who we really are
We’ve got bad shit in our history
We’ve got a lot of bad shit going on right now
Going on right now
Is this what happens when is money is God
Is this what happens when you think that money is God
Money is God
Can we look at ourselves, why can’t we look at ourselves
What can we do if we won’t even look at ourselves
Look at ourselves
It’s always gonna be us
It’s always gonna be us
We want to lie, but we know
It’s always gonna be us
Always gonna be us
Always gonna be us
It’s always gonna be us
Alright, so this is who we really are

Turn
Thought I would leave in the mornin
Thought I would leave, but the undertaker wasn’t at home
Oh no
I got everything that you want
Everything right here laid out in the trunk of my car
Right here, right now
Right here, right now
Give me all the wheels in the world
Give me all the wheels in the world
Give me all the wheels in the world
I’ve got to turn, turn, turn
I’ve got to turn, turn, turn
Someone’s gotta do the thing
Someone’s gotta sing the song that’ll make it alright
Or maybe they don’t
Push comes to shove comes to ruin
Big and bad and ugly as the end of the sky
The end of the sky
Oh man
Give me all the wheels in the world
Give me all the wheels in the world
Give me all the wheels in the world
I’ve got to turn, turn, turn
I’ve got to turn, turn, turn
Everybody thinks they’re alright
Everyone’s asleep and everybody thinks they’re alright
Give me all the wheels in the world
Give me all the wheels in the world
Give me all the wheels in the world
I’ve got to turn, turn, turn
I’ve got to turn, turn, turn
I’ve got to turn, turn, turn
Don’t Explain
A hot wind sails down outta your brain
You say I’m a fool, yeah man I’m gettin played
What I thought I knew, what I thought I knew, what I thought
Ain’t nothin like the truth, nothin like the truth, nothin like the truth
Don’t explain, I can see it
I can see it, don’t explain
Don’t tell me not to see what’s right in front of me
Oh my lying eyes
Oh my lying eyes
Your mind is on a lazy susan and your mouth is on a spindle
Your deepest heartfelt convictions, well they’re gone with tomorrow
Over and over and over again you say the craziest shit with nothing to back it up
Then you lose your fucking mind when someone questions you
Don’t explain, I can see it
I can see it, don’t explain
Don’t tell me what I can think
Don’t tell me what I can feel
I’m not a part of your cult of fabulism
Awhoo rucka rucka ruck
Awhoo rucka rucka ruck
Awhoo rucka rucka ruck
Awhoo rucka rucka ruck
Don’t explain, I can see it
I can see it, don’t explain
Don’t explain, I can see it
I can see it, don’t explain
Don’t explain
Don’t explain
Don’t explain
