Trained 04:48
Every morning it's a crime, shot by sunshine Misery loves company, takes me for a ride Million riders on the train all twisted out of shape And I want to spread my wings and fly But it's so tight, every inch is occupied Still something tells me forget nine to five At the end of the line, there's a brand new sight Getting off this train before that time La-la-la La-la-la-la-la Skipping breakfast in the morning Another meal just passed me by Like the car that left me high and dry No room for one last bite In the rain, the sleet, and the snow You gotta go where you gotta go Gotta keep on moving and grooving With no room to maneuver So climb aboard, don't hold the doors I think I'll pull the cord La-la-la La-la-la-la-la It was like a war, Viet Nam without the napalm Evacuation, everybody off the train Don't push me cause I'm close to the edge Trying not to lose my head

B-Girl 02:37
You know you should have done it long ago You know you should have tried to give it a go But I know one day will come, oh I know one day will come Yes I know, that day you'll be bent down on your knees You see she looks so lonely like an old blues song You see she's standing there but she won't stay long She's so beautiful tonight, much more brighter than any other light She just seems to be an apple and I wanna take a bite She's so beautiful tonight, much more brighter than any other light She just seems to be an apple and I wanna take a bite I wanna take a bite, I wanna take a bite

Litany 03:42
In every prayer I see the same old litany By changing their names they just pretend it's something new In every thought you might have thought about me By blurring colors you made it look quite like a treat Then you can say whatever, but if you tell it like it is When you've got no shelter, then you're afraid of me The scent of nothing is spreading everywhere in here Not a word to say, not a word to say I met a new boy, looks like a jerk but he's good indeed I met a new girl, she goes to church at least once a week You didn't see that you ought to let it be Here under this shade, no room for you and me You can say whatever, but if you tell it like it is Here under this shade, no room for you and me, and me, and me, and me, and me...

Black shirt, black tie, black suit, black shirt, black tie, black suit You wanna go work in a camp in Beirut, and deploy your tanks from Beirut Flew down to work on diplomatic solutions, But quickly you turned to military options, No clear distinction in the population You just used the word “terror” to justify your actions Black shirt, black tie, black suit, black shirt, black tie, black suit You wanna go work in a camp in Beirut, and deploy your tanks from Beirut Black shirt, black tie, black tie, black shirt You dare not respond to the human rights' community People like you can't stand transparency or nudity You say that your job is building bridges, crossing borders But had to destroy them to save them with your murders Black shirt, black tie, black suit, black shirt, black tie, black suit (x3) You wanna go work in a camp in Beirut, and deploy your tanks from Beirut The black shirt is a shackle, the black tie is a noose, The black suit the executioner's dress, and all of them fit just perfectly this mess

Another sleepless night, another migraine you plunge inside me, and take my guts out come on you can rob me now, take anything you want ooh the way I think about you, I never thought I could In my vision I'm doing all I can, to get myself out of this place I believe there's something I can do, to break free and look for new space the place I'm in I'm not able to share, with anybody but myself and understanding how this works for me, just won't take me anywhere Restless is my body, there's only one thing inside out and upside down, head over heels but does it matter? freeways are not so free, and highways aren't high I always think about you, this time it ain't a lie Frustration this is what I feel, whenever I get stuck inside these moments terminal cancer incurable disease, all thoughts are crowding my mind there's no way out I can't see any light, darkness rules everywhere I feel like I'm a powerless amoeba, death is my only friend

The Monkey 02:57
A guy walks into a bar with a monkey on his back He likes his party animal on Eyes and ears, mouth and nose, head and shoulders Overflow with chips that can't be bought or sold He gets a pass for being second to last Just adds it to his stash By the time the backlash comes It's too late the damage has been done It's said and done The medieval divas have become true believers Standing tall at four feet under the ground See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil Brothers keepers always marry to the mob The sacrifices of a mafia wife The money or your life By the time the whispers start It's too late you could be dead and gone

姑娘,姑娘给爱我,爱我就给我摸一摸 你要摸,你摸不着,摸出事来莫怪我 姑娘已十八,一朵新鲜花,谁是小蜜蜂,随风把花摘了。 “大官人,请啊”:“姑娘在哪里?姑娘在哪里?” 姑娘在西门庆的眼睛里! 我们的生活,我们的欲望,我们的聪明,我们的方向在哪里啊? … 姑娘在哪里?姑娘在哪里?姑娘在哪里?饭客在哪里?饭客在老百姓的生活里
