True
Love -- "True Love is three men and a baby - and their baby is rock and roll.
Three men with a mutual love of Guided By Voices, The Beatles, Cheap Trick and Elvis Costello
... I was really struck by the booty-shakin' impact that good songs, and dead-on three part harmonies stripped (in most part) of
pretense and blind "I wanna be on K-Rock" ambition, could still have in this world where
everyone feels as if they've seen and heard everything a million times before."
[Heavy and Uncool]
NEW ALBUM COMING SOON! BURN RUBBER BABY ... |

"Over The Rainbow" [chorus] I will let you back in my life starting right from today I love you despite all of the time spent away Tell me what you want You gave me my best and worst times, so they've turned out to be I've witnessed the crimes, will I ever be free?

"Lightning Rod" Let's take a ride and blow our minds Out in the country We'll cut the corners, blur the lines We might get lucky At the food of the gods I can feel odd like a lightning rod I can be anyone I want I can be lawless I can be flawless I can be strong enough to leave you in my dust Let's pay the prices for our vices And leave them behind Let's leave the cement For the insects crush in the grind Under the starts I can go far like a racing car I can drive anywhere I want I can be lawless I can be flawless I can be strong enough to leave you in my dust And so it goes I'm trying to get out but i sincerely have my doubts Nobody knows If I could turn this trick if i could only get this licked I could be free like I wanna be I could be anyone but me I can be good like I know I should I could be new and shine for you |

"(Get Your) Ass (In Gear)" Get your ass in gear before you Talk to me about being normal It’s not that easy From Hudson Bay to California Your reputation came before you It’s not that easy Get your ass in gear Got no radar, got no sonar But I can tell your brand of choice ain’t low tar Got a drop kick floored reaction Turn around, your numbers up again Get your ass in gear before you Talk to me about being normal It’s not that easy Get your ass in gear It’s not that easy You slam the door of the dented car It’s not that easy |

"All Lovers Are Doomed" There's not enough room All lovers are doomed Destined for desperation Every kind of aggravation No matter who you think you are No matter where you want to go No matter who you say you had No matter who you think you know There's not enough fun All lovers are young Always keeping secrets He begs her not to leave yet And if you know where you belong And if you know what you deserve You will believe the facts is wrong You won't believe a thing you heard |

Throwing Back the Ring Well it truly was insane what happened today She was playing every part that she does As I saw her at the front door stepping away She was trying to act hard yes she was She told me all you ever loved was a meaning of love Justify your hard hearted blues And it really doesn't feel that great where I was And it doesn't mean a thing to you Oh my God, all this shit that's going on Is there anything left at all We were running at the same time several times And she got me down once and it shows And she sent me on back to the end of the line Where the very worst last ones go She said that I must have been the craziest one I told her I was just one of the two And it's really just way to late to have fun And it doesn't mean a thing to you |

Now I was lost in dreams of the way it used to be Suddenly it seems time brought you to me Wanted just to know if it had a chance After all this could our love advance Everything I want is a hangup in the end Something I can flaunt, something to defend When I'm not with you all I feel is crazed And I'm amazed I'm feeling like my heart is an ocean all the time Now the wait is over I pledge my devotion for all time Now the wait is over Anything that you can recall Now we can see throught it all And we know we've gotten this far Now we can see who we are Some will strike and bleed for a reason to go on Others will be freed 'til the imbalance is gone Some will make it back neither broken nor unfazed And I'm amazed |

Timedog I was half aware your fuse was burning down You've come a long way from nowhere to this town And even your closest friends can't reach you now And the easiest things you need are the things that you never allow I remember times we didn't go nowhere Adolescent crimes we did without a care And it's a long way from here back to nowhere I only wanna go to the one that I know but the one that I know is not there If I fought through but I lost you If time spoke true forever and ever |

Heartache to Come I've been looking for a long time night and day Lost sight staring into sunshine couldn't quite find my way I always thought that you were the one but you picked the wrong time to come Take a look around where this moment has found us It didn't take long my love And I never thought you'd get so far from me Hard to see Bye bye One last kiss can last a long time feel so sad You've been slipping off the dream line Did you want to feel so bad Why don't you just say who you are Now you're in one step too far Call it quits you're throwing little fits And your effigie's bitten and burned All your friends say you should make it end 'Cause you haven't been yourself and they are concerned You're waiting for a heartache to come |

Sprouting Up Blades of Love on an Acid Beach A false alarm trips the radar switch Something is soon to change And I was left as a witness there to find out something strange If I'm prepared to know this What I can't know for sure The evidence had made things seem bad to find out something pure And neither can tell a thing about the reason we truly are I swallowed down all the potions I tried every kind of trick To chase out dreary daydream where the best forgotten stick I raged in safe asylums I threw down worn out tools I heard God laugh a curse down on us know-it-alls and fools And neither can tell a thing about the reason we truly are We found our strength in numbers with broken parts in each Striving for things we could want we could not quite reach We drowned as faded victims We chased our ghosts in flames Our mothers and our fathers never knew us by our own true names Lost in the places we haunt Sprouting up blades of love on an acid beach It's getting too late to stay here among all these kinds of spys It's easy to lose your way here in a world that often lies And as this night is falling It comes and then is gone And no one can tell a thing about what's really going on And no one can tell a thing about the reason we truly are |

Could Be
Anything No, don’t want to dance Just another casualty in trance Could be anything You always say that to me I’m no wonder boy Don’t want to drum up no war Could be anything You always say that You just can’t see that it Don’t mean anything to me Given up the fight Doesn’t mean that I am not right Could be anything I can’t feel my arms There’s no life inside of my legs Could be anything You always cry out You just can’t see that it Don’t mean anything to me Now what have you done? To your broken hearted background singers They’ve got you on the run Now we’ll see what you bring us With your broken hearted singers No, don’t want to dance Don’t want to take another chance Could be anything You always say that to me No new tale to tell Sunny day in my private hell Could be anything You always say that You just can’t see that it Don’t mean anything to me |

ilovegirlswholoverockandroll All of my best times, my best times Have fallen to images sullen My old comb, metronome Foot tap to the death tone I love girls who love rock and roll It satisfies my own soul Oh, my world has spun out of control Salvation takes a heavy toll Come on Do me one more Put me to pasture Look out, up to the stars My star’s echoing laughter If you could choose one If you could be one What would the rate run? Burned all our bonfires Hooked on our trip wires Dry rotted flat tires |

Riot Helmet Vibrations in the State Room Have fallen on deaf ears You won’t be calm until you arm Yourself with an illusion To counter all your fears They’ll be back before they’re gone You won’t missing for too long They’ll find you in the back room Biting your own tongue You won’t be bleeding for too long You had your riot helmet on They’ll the tracks of ruby tears You’re riot helmet is so weird I tried to save you when your buildings were razed to the ground I begged you to be cool but you’ll never be down |

The Wait Any
Longer Could I choose one more pathetic? May speak too and then regret it But everything, everything works if you let it But I’m alone when you’re in tow, so just forget it Learning new things every day now Learning how to walk a different way now But have you forgotten what to say now? Thinking you’ll come ‘round again any day now By now I know it wouldn’t work Too far gone screaming red alert We could’ve been just like all the other jerks I have to ask, now, did it hurt? Can’t stand the wait any longer My mind’s been tied up in a game Can’t stand the wait any longer You won’t know what’s inner-soul about me Digging up the life you’ve planted “Let the weeds grow high” you’ve ranted Have you become that disenchanted You won’t know what’s inner-soul about me |

Mr. Sad Hey Mr. Sad Is your garden growing? Are your disappointments blooming? Have you sowed the seeds ruin? Hey Mr. Sad Have you cried enough this season? Have you felt the sting of treason? Have you lost your hope to reason? Have you ever been faced With a smile that you could not erase You’ve found a place Where joy is as sin And where losing is the only way to win. |

Goodbye So Long I’ve been watching you Thinking about yourself And I don’t like it I’ve been eying you Spying on someone else I find it frightening You’re the monkey in the middle Getting tired and feeling little And everything is happening The time the time is sinking in Goodbye so long Gotta get it on Gotta get it wrong so many times Before she puts her foot down Packs her bag and says she’s leaving town |

Service of the Knife Take my bones out of here It stinks of life, it reeks of fear And no one ever shed a tear for a life Spent in service of the knife Pick my brains, bite my tongue I said too much when I was young The words had hardly left my tongue For the air And I started getting scared That the loneliness is shared By everyone Who’s spared The burden and the glare Of prying eyes And spies who whisper to the sky Solo And I started getting scared That this loneliness is shared by everyone |

Radio On Waxing nostalgic about the old sound We gas up the tank drive it into the ground We were the only We were the only game in town Did you sleep with the radio on? One ear peeled just to hear that song? I’m 20 years late to ever be great If rock and roll dies, we’ll all be to blame We were the only We were the only game in town Did you sleep with the radio on? One ear peeled just to hear that song? And every day, the ringing in my ears Gets a little bit worse And every day I try to write a chorus And all I get is another verse |

The Genius Everybody Come on let’s roll on the farewell party To kings And everything that live through thick and thin Leave the genius Lost in pieces He’s got lines for every season Is he lucid? Or just stupid We don’t care cuz we’ll be Stopping when he starts Living through his art Picking up the parts of his life Gathered nightly, baby this scene is so unsightly We’ll lose our faculties And bleed the forest for the trees There’s no stopping once you have felt your conscience knocking On things you try to keep inside and underneath |
