I've got me a baby
Well fellas I tell you this lovers done bringing me down
I've got me a lady
With teeth like the stone and a head with an old stolen crown
She's crying for ladies
And gays and the rest and the subjects of her false renown
Cuzz she's gotta be something
Without something she's just no different from people in town
Folks on fire and people are screaming
Well my girls just fine though I think that she's bleeding
Not from the head tween her legs or her toes now
Blood pours from that old dead chest living organ, yeah...
She just can't handle herself for a day
Without me she's lonely together we play
Loud Spartan shit heads forced in a room
Sex for when we've both got something to prove
Lover don't leave yet some meat's on the bone
My eyes went first but I'm watching the crows
Now I've forgotten the good you'd once shown
It hurts but it's better than being alone
She's losing her mind now
Becoming a creature a beast of a social reform
Speaking in tongues now
Repeating the words and the phrases in all perfect form
She's no longer her now
Becoming an image, a shadow, a pale uniform
But that's how she wants it
That way no person nor mirror could know that she's torn
"Problematic lover" as she'd say
And I just can't stop her from trying to "woke" me
She's obsessive, can't bear to be normal
With some self delusion why everyone's special
(Solo/Instrumental Section)
Yeah oh she's losing her mind (x5)

There is a tale centuries old
All Americans must be told
About a man and his quest
To retake the land that's blessed
Half his year's salaries
Were the tears of his enemies
And with those tears he paved a trail
Because he knew he would prevail
He's...
Andrew...
Jackson!
Andrew Jackson
King of the presidents!
Captured at thirteen by the British
Spit on their heels and ran away
Andrew Jackson!
Andrew Jackson!
Well old King Andrew, as he was known
Sat upon his bloody throne.
In New Orleans... He raised some hell.
Were the Spanish fighting? Ha! One couldn't tell! But..
Well Jackson was attacked in
A place called Misery
The crowd all cried out for his blood
But Jackson would be free
He reached into his pocket to make like
He had a gun!
He cried out to the men there
Oh come and get me son!
He's
Andrew
Jackson!
Andrew Jackson
King of the presidents!
Orphaned at fourteen, kinda like batman
Only he doesn't wear a cape
Andrew Jackson!
Andrew Jackson!
Slayed a hydra with a sword
Invented jazz with a single chord
Climbed a mountain with no hands
And three years later he was born
Invented math (meth?)
He felt no pain
Destroyed the whole country of Spain
Fought with Jesus and his dad
And flew a plane into the sun.
He's...
Andrew...
Jackson!
Andrew Jackson
King of the presidents!
Trail of tears.. Actually that was really bad.
I guess everyone makes mistakes!
Time traveling wizard
From the future
Came to murder Henry Clay
He's Andrew Jackson

Words fail
Words fail to describe
To describe
Your part
Your part in my life
In my life
I'm sure you'll find me waiting here for you
If you just give me the time
I wish
I wish you knew
Wish you knew
Your smile
You smile lights up a room
Lights up a room
You give so much up to change the world
I just hope to be there too
Right now
Right now there's no time
Now there's no time
To see
To see what's down the line
What's down the line
But if you're there when I open my eyes
Then I'll be doing just fine

Baby, you've been so warm
But I prefer to feel your lifeless cold
'Cause nice is nice while niceness hums
But oh how trouble sings
And you've got to break a chest or two
To play those pretty strings
Baby
Don't slow down
And baby this is just the first fuckin round
So dance the dance of love with me tonight
And look at me
And love me
With those cold empty eyes
Baby, all dressed in white
And baby, you're beautiful tonight
So dance the dance of love with me
Dance the dance of death
You've never been quite as pretty as when
You're out of breath
So baby
Don't slow down
And baby this is just the first fuckin round
So dance the dance of love with me tonight
And look at me
And love me
With those cold empty eyes
Through the cataract of love now you see
All I wished before you'd see in me
Mountains I'll dig
And never again
Will I want for any less than this tiny sin
"Can't have" turns me on
And I've heard it for far too long
So tonight I got what I want
And now it's boring me
So come on come on and move a bit
Come on and dance for me
So baby
Don't slow down
'Cause you are so beautiful now.

Dance

I'm Romeo when we are talking but when we dance I'm Steven Hawking
Two left feet are tough to move and more worse still when buying shoes
I see you've got music within you, you're the only song I'd like to move to
Dance...
Loving you all day and night yet I can't move body right
My passion is a burning flame but next to you my moves are lame
Let me go from your lovers spell
As The dance floor is my living hell
Dance...
Dance
I hate to dance
Can't stop romance
But still won't dance
Akin to a how flightless bird
Trying to fly would be absurd
Or asking a man with no legs
To step on 50,000 eggs
For me to dance you must have trust
That's equally ridiculous
Dance...
The only moves I can sustain
Are the kind of moves that summon rain
Endless torrents soak the ground
When to the beat my body pounds
Sad, they salt the land for years
Because it's raining children's tears
Dance...
Dance
I hate to dance
Can't stop romance
But still won't dance
(Solo)
I'm as dexterous as a newborn deer
My movements instill doubt and fear
More likely to see Christ alive
than witness me get down and jive
When you see my arms flailing round
It's best to get right out of town
Dance...
When I hear a heavy drum
It signals pandemonium
My heart goes first into a sprint
And then my mind is gone and went
Whats left is nothing to be seen
A horror from your darkest dreams
Dance...
Dance
I hate to dance
Can't stop romance
But still won't dance
Dance
I hate to dance
Can't stop romance
But still won't dance

Sally walked down the river
To my home, to my home
Standing on the porch she shivered
And she spoke, she spoke
She said daddy's been drinking again
And I'm scared, I'm scared
She said momma's been trying to calm him
And he's mad, lord he's mad
But don't you worry little angel girl
I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll save you girl
So turn your face away darling
The devil's doing his work
Turn your face away darling
This evil's giving birth
Sally walked down the river
To my home, to my home
Standing on the porch she quivered
And she said, she said
She said Tommys been out with his friends
And she's mad, lord she's mad
Our baby's done nothing but crying
He don't help, I need help
So don't you worry little angel girl
I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll save you girl
So turn your face away darling
The devil's doing his work
Turn your face away darling
this evil's giving birth
Well Sally's husband's up and leaving
Took the kid, took their son
Now Sally's been getting to drinking
And I'm scared, lord I'm scared
Now Sally drowned in the river
In the night, all alone
My baby's done gone now to heaven
So Lord I'm comin' home...
So turn your face away darling
The devil's doing his work
Turn your face away darling
this evil's giving birth

I'm a man of 72 and not to place the blame
But I felt quite young till I looked at you
As into the bar you came
So turn around, go back to your girl
And kiss her on the cheek
Cuzz down the line you'll get the chance
To drink with us and sing
Our wives are dead, our peckers are dead
Our sons are off at the war
Our drinks are full, we down em fast
And now we're cryin for more
No man is glad or entirely sad
So long as his drink is full
So pour us a round till we all fall down
We swear we'll pay in the morn
Over 60 years ago I tasted my first sip
Whiskey was my first true love, it had me by me lips
I used to be a catholic man
I never missed a prayer
But since I started drinking well the devil seems more fair
Our wives are dead, our peckers are dead
Our sons are off at the war
Our drinks are full, we down em fast
And now we're cryin for more
No man is glad or entirely sad
So long as his drink is full
So pour us a round till we all fall down
We swear we'll pay in the morn
I knew a lad who drank all day who's wife would run around
Finding love from any man who'd gladly pat her down
He told us "Lads I cannot bear to think my girl untrue" I say,
You're lucky, boy with no clap in your groin
At least she's not given it to you
Our wives are dead, our peckers are dead
Our sons are off at the war
Our drinks are full, we down em fast
And now we're cryin for more
No man is glad or entirely sad
So long as his drink is full
So pour us a round till we all fall down
We swear we'll pay in the morn
Men come gather round
The saddest tale in town
My wife's got good looks
But she cannot cook
So the food's better suited for hounds
So I gave my wife one wish
Serve chicken instead of fish
But after the food
She got in the mood
And she was my favorite dish
Our wives are dead, our peckers are dead
Our sons are off at the war
Our drinks are full, we down em fast
And now we're cryin for more
No man is glad or entirely sad
So long as his drink is full
So pour us a round till we all fall down
We swear we'll pay in the morn
Our wives are dead, our peckers are dead
Our sons are off at the war
Our drinks are full, we down em fast
And now we're cryin for more
No man is glad or entirely sad
So long as his drink is full
So pour us a round till we all fall down
We swear we'll pay in the morn

My oh my
On the subject of time
And the wounds it should heal
Yet it still seems to feel
Like a fall from grace
Love completely erased
Is it always this way
Although you cannot stay
Go on now
You must be gone now
Leave me here all alone
Please go off on your own
Tell me goodbye
But I will not cry
Despite all the bad memories
I'm not here to make enemies
You
And I
Can't go on
Living this lie
Cursed by love
What can one do
When they're trapped by you
All this while
We couldn't care
But we didn't dare
To try and go on
To try and go out
And let ourselves free
From the results of our
Faulty company
So we just move on
Darling just move on
Fight through the weather
Come on it gets better
So we just move on
Darling just move on
Fight through the weather
Come on it gets better
We tried the best that anyone can
Just did not have the greatest of plans
So when we we take a further look back
All we can see are the giant cracks
We both said our love would last forever
Not knowing it meant time spent together
No point to do it over again
Now you and I are off in the wind
There was a wall that we couldn't break
There was some love that we couldn't fake
Given some time to look at what was
I am still thankful for it because
I should believe in falling in love
Although now there's no love to speak of
It means that there was love that we shared
And that at one point you must've cared
I should believe in falling in love
Although now there's no love to speak of
It means that there was love that we shared
And that at one point you must've cared
