Kick and Kane and Phaze
They been clowning’ on the north side
I seen ‘em tagging everything
Been walking through these streets
About a million years
I /m carrying gasoline
Hey mister, itch you got a light
You wanna hit this thing
Hey mister itch you got a light
Don’t you want to burn with me
I had a big blonde sister
In a triple expose
She burned alive in a house fire
Was talking to my brother
From beyond the grave
They put his lip in a jackknife
Hey mister
Do I look good in your suit and tie
Hey mister
Does anyone make it out alive
It’s easy to say
It’s a beautiful day
You got heat in your house
And food for your kids

I said good-bye after you walked out the door,

I’ve got a new face
i don’t take it anyplace
maybe i should pull it out
do the twist, shake and shout
See what the fuss is all about
i know I’m a fool
but you see anyway
i know I’m foolish
that’s what you see i know i know i know
don’t I deserve a little grace
i lied about the tattoos
i never yelled at you
i wanted to impress you
I’ll make it up to you
i don’t like about the important shit
don’t i deserve a little grace
back off I’ll smack you down
i’m the toughest guy in town
Taking names and making rounds
This country is falling apart oh yeah
this country is falling apart oh yeah
don't make me save it...
don’t i deserve a little grace
i lied about the tattoos
i never yelled at you
i wanted to impress you
I’ll make it up to you
i don’t like about the important shit
Don’t i deserve a little grace
i’ve got another face
maybe it’s another race
maybe i should pull it out
do the twist and shake and shout
don’t make me save it
do the twist and shake and shout

Divide this unknown
Crashing all around
Blisters on skin
Reasons to drink
Never accept dual meaning
Outside your fence
Thrown from afar
Outside your fence
Tools of the trade
Incompetent misfits
Honing their craft
Tools of the trade
Create the unknown
Own it outright
Compelling illusions
A real reason to drink
So down the hatch boys
Intoxicate your self
The drive will be dangerous
But arrivals on time, arrivals on time
Tools of the trade
Incompetent misfits
Honing their craft
Tools of the trade

what ya gonna do now
what you gonna do now now
in a pool of love
what ya gonna do now
what you gonna do now now
with all your yesterdays
could've kicked the lady to the curb
could've thrown her in front of an on coming bus
but you didn't have the nerve to cross the denny bridge
above i5 to toss yourself off
what ya gonna do now
what you gonna do now now
in a pool of love
what ya gonna do now
what you gonna do now now
with all your yesterdays
you're wonderful with colors like highway orange
but not so subtle with shades and tints
what it's it like to paint now that your muse is gone
and the spray can's empty and the shells are all spent
what ya gonna do now
what you gonna do now now
in a pool of love
what ya gonna do now
what you gonna do now now
with all your yesterdays
it's the night time of the morning the coming of the dawn
i've got a trigger in my pocket for you to put your finger on
it's all I can do
it's all i can do to feel

Well that’s another night
Whipping through my hair
Just let me in
I’ll break anything
What is it?
Is it love
That breaks this down
That holds this town
Well I can hear them smashing windshield on a volkswagen
What is it that breaks this down
Ahhhh ahh ahh (sic)
I know the beast
Kiss me kiss me kiss me
Friction helps us
Helps us to forget
What is it?
What is it?
That breaks this down
That owns this town
I love you so much

Yes that’s great, keep singing that song
I think everyone will sing along
But I’ve got Highway 61
Every day. Uphill both ways
You just keep singing anyway
A boy on a bike, going fast
The shag haircut that won’t last
The coal truck fuckers
The peach pit suckers
Running that sail up the mast
Can’t remember why
I got you in my head go to
D
Like my ray Davies suit
Am I dressed alright?
You made me hate it
To me, but the word is alive
It’s embarrassing
How much time I took
How I tried to tell myself
It ain’t that bad
And one day without warning
I may testify to the wonder that died
The songs that were beautiful
The books I read and smoking weed in your head
Am I dressed alright? Am i dressed alright?
To me the word is alive alright alright alright
So alive am i dressed alright
Here I go,
Just a hole in the floor
A simple burial
A leather carry all
It;s pretty easy
Watch me go
