Brooklyn
03:22

Brooklyn, I just want to let you know
Brooklyn, I don't want to let you go
You do something else to me
The Borough of Churches, the Borough of Trees
The Borough of Baseball, the Borough of Sleaze
Every time I turn a corner every time I open the door
See something I ain't seen before and it brings me
Down to my knees!
(Chorus)
From Coney Island to the Pulaski Bridge
From East New York down to Bay Ridge
Every time I go away by car or plane or by subway
I get down on my knees and pray that I will see you again...
What the fuck am I doing here?
In the land of L.A.?
I miss my Brooklyn every day!!
(Chorus)

Elephant in the Room
02:32
|
|||
You and I face to face
And there’s an elephant in the room
Everywhere we go in every space
And there’s an elephant in the room
What can we do
About the elephant in the room?
When you look at me do you see
The elephant in the room?
Every time we breathe we risk a stampede
From the elephant in the room
What can we do
About the elephant in the room?
Stop the war!
Stop the lies!
Open your heart!
Open your eyes!

We never went to the moon
It was all a hoax
We’re the butt of all the astronaut’s jokes (laugh)
The space race was created as a way
Of diverting the public from the problems of today
A former government agent has proclaimed
All of the missions of Apollo were framed
The whole notion of interplanetary travel is a bust
We would be bombarded by intergalactic dust
Chorus
We never went to the moon
We never went to the moon
because if
we never went to the moon
Then I never fell in love with you!
We never went to the moon
It was just fantastic
The lunar module it was made of plastic
Just like the words of love that I believed
I found out that I was deceived
So then we must have never left
It was a top secret back lot back drop special effect
Chorus
NASA’s controlled by AFTRA
A wing of the CIA
There no life on the stars of Mars
Or anywhere in the Milky Way!
I’m alone stuck on planet Earth
Right smack dab in the middle of the empty universe
Chorus

Heart Condition
03:00
|
|||
Doo doo doo doot doot
You don’t want me
You just haunt me
You don’t love me
You just shove me
I can’t take it no more
Chorus
I got a heart condition
I got a heart condition
I got a heart condition
And I’m out of commission
You don’t call me
You just stall me
You don’t text me
You just vex me
I’m curled up on the floor
Chorus
Solo
I got a heart condi-tion
So please... handle with care
Chorus x3
Doo doo doo doot doot

I went down to the local store
Well I grabbed my things and I shut the door
I want things to be like they were before
And I went down to the local bar
Well I jumped in my keys and grabbed my car
But I didn’t have to travel very far
To know that
I don’t know anyone anywhere anymore
I don’t know anyone anywhere anymore
Is it everything still looks the same but
I have changed or is it
Nothing seems to look the same but
I haven’t changed?
(solo)
Chorus
Is it: everything still looks the same but
I have changed or is it
Nothing seems to look the same but
I haven’t changed?
Or is it everything still looks the same but
I haven’t changed
or is it nothing seems to look the same but
I have changed?

Supertwisted
02:27
|

Way too tired, much too high
underwhelmed and over fried
supertwisted head uptight
I don't care who's wrong this time
Go pack the bags under your eyes, dear; I'm clear
If you leave first I'll take the blame, dear; I'm here...
all alone, no I would never call this "home"
Found myself just
Way too tired, much too high
underwhelmed and over fried
supertwisted head uptight
I don't care who's wrong this time
Don't miss your train of thought, it's too late; don't wait
Go sing your song out on the highway; my way...
on the road, you're so much better left alone
Found yourself just
Way too tired, much too high
underwhelmed and over fried
supertwisted head uptight
I don't care who's wrong this time

Don't Leva
02:51
|

What are you doing - I don't wanna know
Where are you going - I don't wanna go
But please, please, please I'm begging on my knees
Don't Leva, don't leave ahh
Don't Leva without saying goodbye!
Who are you seeing - I don't wanna know
Where are you meeting - I don't wanna go
But please, please, please I'm begging on my knees
Don't Leave ahh, don't Leva,
Don't leave ahh without saying goodbye
Without telling me why, I go home and I cry, I go home and I...

Punch Drunk
02:22
|

I'll take a shot to the lips
Feel the earth through your fingertips
I'll take a shine to the eye
Then a tumble down the other side
But I'll never, ever know, never really know
What it takes to make you mine
That is why I'm punch drunk all the time
When you scream, it's a song
Tell me everything I do is wrong
I get high when you lie
and it brings a chill to my spine
But I'll never, ever know, never really know
What it takes to make you mine
That is why I'm punch drunk all the
I'm three sheets to the wind
My head is starting to spin
The tears they flow like wine
That is why I'm... all the...
You leave scars like you should
That catholic school has done you good
Double back with a swing
and turn the stone on your pinkie ring

Night Guard
04:09
|
|||
It can be a grind
So hard to unwind
I'm glad that you are there
Making sure I'm not scared!
Translucent, small, and light
I put you in at night
So soft and yet so strong
You protect me all night long
'Cause you're my night guard when the day is through
I can always count on you
When I bite down in the darkest night
You're gonna make it all right
