Honeymoon

• Honeymoon

We both know that it’s not fashionable to love me
But you don’t go, ‘cause truly there’s nobody for you but me
We could cruise to the blues — Wilshire Boulevard if we choose
Or whatever you want to do; we make the rules

Our honeymoon
Our honeymoon
Our honeymoon
Say you want me too
Say you want me too
Dark blue
Dark blue

We both know the history of violence that surrounds you
But I’m not scared, there’s nothing to lose now that I’ve found you
And we could cruise to the news—Pico Boulevard in your used little bullet car
If we choose, Mr. Born to Lose

Our honeymoon
Our honeymoon
Our honeymoon
Say you want me too
Say you want me too
Dark blue
Dark blue

There are violets in your eyes; there are guns that blaze around you
There are roses in between my thighs and fire that surrounds you
It’s no wonder every man in town had neither fought nor found (you)
Everything you do is elusive to even your honey dew

Our honeymoon
Our honeymoon
Our honeymoon

Da da da da
Dreaming away your life
Dreaming away your life
Dreaming away your life
Oooh...
Dreaming away your life
Dreaming away your life
Dreaming away your life
Oooh... mhm...

• Music To Watch Boys To

(I like you a lot)
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
(So I do what you want)
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
(Blue Ribbons on ice)
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
(‘Cause I like you a lot)
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

Pink flamingos
Always fascinated me
I know what only the girls know
Hoes with lies akin to me

I see you're going
So I play my music, watch you leave

(I like you a lot)
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
(So I do what you want)
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
(Blue Ribbons on ice)
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
(‘Cause I like you a lot)
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

Velveteen and living single
It never felt that right to me
I know what only the girls know
Lies can buy eternity

I see you leaving
So I push record and watch you leave

(I like you a lot)
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
(So I do what you want)
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
(Blue Ribbons on ice)
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
(‘Cause I like you a lot)
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

I live to love you
And I love to love you
And I live to love you, boy
I live to love you
And I love to love you
And I live to love you, boy

Nothing gold can stay
Like love or lemonade
Or sun or summer days
It's all a game to me anyway

(I like you a lot)
Putting on my music while I’m watching the boys
(So I do what you want)
Singing soft grunge just to soak up the noise
(Blue Ribbons on ice)
Playing their guitars, only one of my toys
(‘Cause I like you a lot)
No holds barred, I’ve been sent to destroy, yeah

Putting on my music while I'm watching the boys
Putting on my music while I'm watching the boys

• Terrence Loves You

You are what you are
I don’t matter to anyone
But Hollywood legends will never grow old
And all of what’s hidden, well, it will never grow cold

But I lost myself when I lost you
But I still got jazz when I’ve got those blues
And I lost myself when I lost you
And I still get trashed, darling, when I hear your tunes

But you are who you are
I won’t change you for anything
For when you are crazy, I’ll let you be bad
I’ll never dare change thee to what you are not

But I lost myself when I lost you
But I still got jazz when I’ve got those blues
I lost myself and I lost you, too
And I still get trashed, baby, when I hear your tunes

I put the radio on; hold you tight in my mind
It isn’t strange that you’re not here with me
But I know the lights on in the television
Trying to transmit, can you hear me?
Ground control to Major Tom
Can you hear me all night long?
Ground control to Major Tom

Well, I lost myself when I lost you
But I still got jazz when I’ve got the blues
I lost myself and I lost you, too
And I still get trashed, honey, when I hear your tunes

Mhm...
Mhm...

• God Knows I Tried

Sometimes I wake up in the morning
To red, blue, and yellow skies
It's so crazy I could drink it
Like tequila sunrise

Put on that Hotel California
Dance around like I'm insane
I feel free when I see no one
And nobody knows my name

God knows I lived
God knows I died
God knows I begged
Begged, borrowed and cried
God knows I loved
God know I lied
God knows I lost
God gave me life

And God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried

Sometimes I wake up in the morning
To red, blue and yellow lights
On Monday they destroy me
But by Friday I'm revived

Put on that hotel California
Wear my blinders in the rain
I've got nothing much to live for
Ever since I found my fame

God knows I lived
God knows I died
God knows I loved
God know I lied
God knows I begged
Begged, borrowed and cried
God knows I lost
God gave me life

And God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried

So let there be light
Let there be light
Light up my life
Light up my life
Let there be light
Let there be light
Light up my life
Light up my life

God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried
God knows I tried

• High By The Beach

Boy, look at you, looking at me
I know you know how I feel
Loving you is hard, being here is harder
You take the wheel
I don’t want to do this anymore
It’s so surreal

I can’t survive
If this is all that’s real

All I want to do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach, get high
All I want to do is get by, by the beach
Get by, baby, baby, bye-bye
The truth is I never bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me, ‘cause I knew that
All I wanted to do was get high by the beach
Get high, baby, baby, bye-bye

Boy, look at you, looking at me
I know you don’t understand
You could be a bad motherfucker
But that don’t make you a man
Now you’re just another one of my problems
Because you got out of hand

We won’t survive
We’re sinking into the sand

All I want to do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach, get high
All I want to do is get by, by the beach
Get by, baby, baby, bye-bye
The truth is I never bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me, ‘cause I knew that
All I wanted to do was get high by the beach
Get high, baby, baby, bye-bye

Lights, camera, acción
I’ll do it on my own
Don’t need your money, money
To get me what I want
Lights, camera, acción
I’ll do it on my own
Don’t need your money, money
To get me what I want

All I want to do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach, get high
All I want to do is get by, by the beach
Get by, baby, baby, bye-bye
The truth is I never bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me, ‘cause I knew that
All I wanted to do was get high by the beach
Get high, baby, baby, bye-bye

High…
High…
High…
High…

Anyone can start again
Not through love, but through revenge
Through the fire we’re born again
Peace by vengeance brings the end

• Freak

Flames so hot that they turn blue,
Palms reflecting in your eyes,
Like an endless summer
That's the way I feel for you,
If time stood still I'd take this moment,
Make it last forever

Your halo's full of fire,
I'm risin' up, risin' up
My heart loves full of fire,
Loves full of fire, ah

Baby, if you wanna leave,
Come to California,
Be a freak like me too
Screw your anonymity,
Lovin' me is all you need,
To feel like I do

We could slow dance to rock music,
Kiss while we do it,
Talk till we both turn blue
Baby, if you wanna leave,
Come to California,
Be a freak like me too

Leather black and eyes of blue,
Sun reflecting in your eyes,
Like an easy rider

Life makes sense when I'm with you,
Looking back, my past, it all seems stranger,
Than a stranger

So let's dance in slow motion,
Tear it up, tear it up,
And let's dance by the ocean, ah

Baby, if you wanna leave,
Come to California,
Be a freak like me too
Screw your anonymity,
Lovin' me is all you need,
To feel like I do

We could slow dance to rock music,
Kiss while we do it,
Talk till we both turn blue
Baby, if you wanna leave,
Come to California,
Be a freak like me too

Ooh, you're cold as ice, baby,
But when you're nice, baby,
You're so amazing in every way
Ooh, you're cold as ice, baby,
I don't wanna fight, baby,
It's like I told you, if you stay I'll stay

Baby, if you wanna leave,
Come to California,
Be a freak like me too
(Take it to the back if you really wanna talk)
Screw your anonymity,
Lovin' me is all you need,
To feel like I do
(Take it to the back if you really wanna talk)

We could slow dance to rock music,
Kiss while we do it,
Talk till we both turn blue
Baby, if you wanna leave,
Come to California,
Be a freak like me too

• Art Deco

Club queen on the downtown scene,
Prowling around at night
You're not mean, you're just born to be seen,
Born to be wild

A little party never hurt no one,
That's why it's alright
You want in but you just can't win,
So you hang in the likes

You're so art deco,
Out on the floor
Shining like gunmetal,
Cold and unsure
Baby, you're so ghetto,
You're looking to score,
When they all say "hello",
You try to ignore them,
'Cause you want more

Why? You want more
Why? You want more
Why? 'Cause you want more

Young thing on the downtown scene,
Rolling around at night
Got things that've yet to be seen,
Like your rapper's delight

A little party never hurt no one,
That's why it's alright
You want in but you just can't win,
So you stay in the lights

You're so art deco,
Out on the floor
Shining like gunmetal,
Cold and unsure
Baby, you're so ghetto,
You're looking to score,
When they all say "hello",
You try to ignore them,
'Cause you want more

Why? You want more
Why? You want more
Why? 'Cause you want more

A little party never hurt no one,
So you stay out late
A little party never hurt no one,
That's what your friends say

You put your life out on the line,
You're crazy all the time
Put your life out on the line,
You're crazy all the time

You're so art deco,
Out on the floor
Shining like gunmetal,
Cold and unsure
Baby, you're so ghetto,
You're looking to score,
When they all say "hello",
You try to ignore them,
'Cause you want more

Why? You want more
Why? You want more
Why? 'Cause you want more

A little party never hurt no one,
Not you and me
A little party never hurt no one,
We were born to be free

• Burnt Norton

Time present and time past
Are both perhaps present in time future,
And time future contained in time past.
If all time is eternally present
All time is unredeemable.
What might have been is an abstraction
Remaining a perpetual possibility
Only in a world of speculation.
What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present.
Footfalls echo in the memory
Down the passage which we did not take,
Towards the door we never opened
Into the rose-garden.

• Religion

Everything is fine, now,
Let sleeping dogs lay
All our minds made up, now,
All our beds are made

No one's out of time, no,
Chips fall where they may,
Leave it all behind,
Let the ocean wash away

It never was about
The money or the drugs,
For you there's only love,
For you there's only love
It never was about
The party or the clubs,
For you there's only love

'Cause you're my religion,
You're how I'm living,
When all my friends say
I should take some space

Well, I can't envision,
That for a minute
When I'm down on my knees,
You're how I pray

Hallelujah,
I need your love
Hallelujah,
I need your love

Everything is bright now,
No more cloudy days
Even when the storms come,
In the eye, we'll stay

No need to survive now,
All we do is play,
All I hear is music,
Like "Lay Lady Lay"

It never was about,
The money or the drugs,
With you there's only love,
With you there's only love
It never was about
The party or the clubs,
For you there's only love

'Cause you're my religion,
You're how I'm living,
When all my friends say
I should take some space

Well, I can't envision,
That for a minute
When I'm down on my knees,
You're how I pray

Hallelujah,
I need your love
Hallelujah,
I need your love

You're my religion,
You're how I'm living,
When all my friends say
I should take some space

Well, I can't envision,
That for a minute
When I'm down on my knees,
You're how I pray

Hallelujah,
I need your love
Hallelujah,
I need your love

• Salvatore

All the lights in Miami begin to gleam
Ruby, blue and green, neon too
Everything looks better from above, my king
Like aquamarine oceans blue

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Cacciatore
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
Limousines
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ciao, amore
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
Soft ice cream

All the lights are sparkling for you, it seems
On the downtown scenes, shady blue
Beatboxing and rapping in the summer rain
Like a boss, he sang jazz and blues

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Cacciatore
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
Limousines
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ciao, amore
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
Soft ice creams

The summer's wild
And I've been waiting for you all this time
I adore you
Can't you see you're meant for me?
The summer's hot
But I've been cold without you
I was so wrong not to tell
I’m in regine, tangerine dreams

Catch me if you can
Working on my tan
Salvatore
Dying by the hand of a foreign man, happily
Calling out my name
In the summer rain
Ciao, amore
Salvatore can wait
Now it's time to eat
Soft ice cream

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Cacciatore
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Limousines
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ciao, amore
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Soft ice cream

• The Blackest Day

Carry me home, got my blue nail polish on,
It's my favorite color and my favorite tone of song
I don't really wanna break up, we got it goin' on,
It's what you gathered from our talk but you were wrong

It's not easy for me to talk about,
I have heavy heartstrings
I'm not simple, it's trigonometry
It's hard to express, I can't explain

Ever since my baby went away,
It's been the blackest day,
It's been the blackest day
All I hear is Billie Holiday,
It's all that I play,
It's all that I play

Because I'm going deeper and deeper,
Harder and harder,
Getting darker and darker
Looking for love,
In all the wrong places,
Oh my God
In all the wrong places,
Oh my God

Carry me home, got my new car and my gun,
Wind in my hair, holding your hand, listening to our song
Carry me home, don't wanna talk about the things to come,
Just put your hands up in the air, the radio on

'Cause there's nothing for us to talk about,
Like the future and those things
'Cause there's nothing for me to think about,
Now that he's gone I can't feel nothing

Ever since my baby went away,
It's been the blackest day,
It's been the blackest day
All I hear is Billie Holiday,
It's all that I play,
It's all that I play

Because I'm going deeper and deeper,
Harder and harder,
Getting darker and darker
Looking for love,
In all the wrong places,
Oh my God
In all the wrong places,
Oh my God

You should've known better,
Than to have, to let her get you under,
The spell of her weather
I got you where I want you,
You're deader than ever,
I'm falling for forever
I'm playing their game,
Since you got you where I want you,
I got you, I got you,
I got you where I want you now

Ever since my baby went away,
It's been the blackest day,
It's been the blackest day
All I hear is Billie Holiday,
It's all that I play,
It's all that I play

It's not one of those phases I'm going through,
Or just a song, it's not one of them
I'm on my own, on my own,
On my own again

I'm on my own again,
I'm on my own again,
I'm on my own again,
I'm on my own again

• 24

There's only 24 hours in a day
And half as many ways
for you to lie to me
My little love

There's only 24 hours in a day
And half of those you lay awake
with thoughts of murder and carnage

If you lie down with dogs
Then you'll get fleas
Be careful of the company you keep

There’s only 24 hours
and that’s not enough
to lie like you lie and
love like you love

There's only 24 hours in a day
And half of those you lay
Between the sheets with me, my lying love
There's only 24 hours, so you'd say
For most of them you pay
For all the things they paid you for, my love

If you lie down with dogs
Then you'll get fleas
Be careful of
the ones you choose to leave

There’s only 24 hours
and that’s not enough
to lie like you lie or
love like you love

Give me your heat
Give me your diamonds
You hit that street
And my crooked lust
You count to three
While they're all dying
You're hard to reach
You're cold to touch

• Swan Song

Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me
Why work so hard when you could just be free?
You got your money now, you got your legacy,
Let's leave the world for the ones who change everything

Nothing could stop,
The two of us,
Let's just get lost,
That's what we want

And I will never sing again,
And you won't work another day
I will never sing again,
With just one wave it goes away

It will be our swan song,
It will be our swan song
Be our swan song,
It will be our swan song

Dive in, dive deep, and dive blue my sweet,
Brushing up from the water where the ice meets,
And you've been gone so long you missed everything,
The world can change in a day if you go away but;

Nothing could stop,
The two of us,
If that's what we want,
We could just get lost

And I will never sing again,
And you won't work another day
I will never sing again,
With just one wave it goes away

It will be our swan song,
It will be our swan song
Be our swan song,
It will be our swan song

Do you like,
Do you like where you've been,
Where you're going to
Say goodnight,
Say goodnight to the life and the world you knew,
I'm gonna follow you

And I will never sing again,
And you won't work another day
And I will never sing again,
You won't work another day

It will be our swan song,
It will be our swan song
Be our swan song,
It will be our swan song

Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me,
Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me,
Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me,
Why you work so hard when you could just be free?

• Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

Baby, you understand me now,
If sometimes you see that I'm mad
Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel?
When everything goes wrong you see some bad

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good,
Oh, Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

You know sometimes, baby, I'm so carefree,
With a joy that's hard to hide
And then sometimes, again, it seems that all I have is worry,
And then you're bound to see my other side

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good,
Oh, Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy, I want you to know,
I never meant to take it out on you
Life has it's problems, and I get more than my share,
But that's one thing I never mean to do,
'Cause I love you

Oh, baby, I'm just human,
Don't you know I have faults like anyone?
Sometimes I find myself alone regretting some little foolish thing,
It's some simple thing that I've done

'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good,
Oh, Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
I try so hard, don't let me be misunderstood,
I try so hard, don't let me be misunderstood
