Stay

Stay, stay with me, baby,
Just a little bit longer
Until I see the sun
And wait, wait, wait, for me, baby
Just a little bit longer
Cause all I need is for you to keep waiting
You're all I need, so keep on waiting, please

Ché, Ché y el hermano,
people, how they know
he saw me there
he said "we are polvo, holy es el amo"
sometimes I feel that the water is near and we both are fire
sometimes I feel that the water is near and we both are fire
I don't think we'll ever be, oh, so far away
and I don't think we'll ever see, oh, such lonely days

Mammy Baby

Whatchya cooking, Mammy Baby?
All the little kids are hungry
Tiny tables empty, bigger tables overrun
Whatchya thinking, Mammy Baby?
The grown-up table's ********** crazy
Overfed and lazy, won't shut up until they've won
Every seat in here's a throne,
Every word that's spoke; a law
The news is bought, the jury cloned
Stick'em with a mortal loan
No imagination of their own
Whatchya thinking, Mammy Baby?
Daddy's sneaking in a blazing,
Auntie's wasted early,
This house is like a smoking gun
Don't you mind him, Mammy Baby,
Johan's a racist, anti-lady
Pass the biscuits 'cause I'm gravy
Don't give a ***** what he wants
Cause you can't water me down.....

Old Jack
02:32
|

Oh, here's a love song for Old Jack,
I bought ten pounds of ----- and never came back,
He waited by his phone
but I never came home,
Now what's a man to do with someone like that?
Oh, baby here's a love song for Old Jack,
and he's probably never gonna hear it played back
cause wherever I've gone I'll be gone for too long
and he won't be waiting round for me to come back
I'm gone, I'm gone, Old Jack, old dear, so long
Oh, baby, here's a love song for Old Jack
Grown tired of wearing clothes of only all black
He ran me from home so I left him alone
and I ain't afraid to never let him come back
I'm gone, I'm gone, Old Jack, old dear, so long

Church Boots
01:58
|

I see that you've got your church-going-high-heeled shoes on
I see that you've got your prayer-thrown-steel-toed boots on
Can't you see I've been waiting for someone like you to come along?
No money. No baby. Can you spare me a dime?
I ain't feelin so fine. I've got this ache in my heart that keeps me barely alive.
I was locked up for hours, they stuck some pills in my arm.
I was deemed unfit to mother, they gave my child to the law.
Now my babe's just a last name that I don't know anymore.
No money. No baby. Can you spare me a dime?
I ain't doing so fine. I've got this ache in my heart that keeps me barely alive.

Joe Jackson

Who shot Joe Jackson?
Who made his mama cry again?
When’s his luck going to run out?
When’s that boy gonna meet his end?
Who’s layin’ with Sally
Back behind the corner street mart
Who’s keeping her out, again?
Late at night after dark
Ricky’s been stealing
All the pant hangers from department stores
When’s that boy gonna get in trouble?
And what’s he taking them for?
Candice is screaming
At Tina cross the street
But Tina could care less
Because she can’t hear a thing
For seven years I’ve been sayin
The water here is no good
But they’ve outlawed all our containers
And it’s not lookin' so good
We’re all going mad here
In our quaint little town
No one is sane here
And I’ve got to get out
Before I start fillin my pockets
With something to shout about

Seven Days

Seven days under the light
Biding for that under line
We can’t keep off
What we can’t sleep off
And everybody’s saying “why”
And everybody’s getting high
And I just keep wondering “why, why, why?”
Can he even take me?
Can he even take me?
Can he even take me where I’ll be goin’ when I’ll be goin’ to the ground?
Steadier leading on comes the rising of the second sun
Higher still he stands
Upon a silver bed
And everybody’s sayin’ “why?”
And everybody’s getting high
And I keep wondering “why, why, why?”
Can he even take me?
Can he even take me?
.............
Bet you buy that bleedin' bottom line.

Gianni's Gun
03:11
|
|||
You can ride, but go down swinging
Cause you can't stop the bull when Gianni's come to town
And he won't ever not be what I"m wanting
Cause everyone is just another face in the crowd
BANG, BANG, goes Gianni's gun and he won't stop til he's done
BANG, BANG, BANG, Gianni's gun
You are bound only to fall
He is going to get you all
BANG, BANG, BANG, Gianni's gun
And you can bet you're never going to see him
But you will know when he's aiming to take you down
And he won't be stopping while they keep
Dropping on the ground
Here comes Gianninno, the seven foot Bambino
Fire's fire and death is death; we all get laid to rest
You were born above the law
But he's the last fate you saw
BANG, BANG, BANG, Gianni's gun

Boudica
05:03
|
|||
There's a man who smokes a cigarette
And gave his eyes to the town
He lives upon a beating drum and he paints a silhouette of a maiden that once he knew, who was drawn far away, never to return to him; so he sits and he plays,
"The time has come, kiss your mother, Dear. The ground we tread upon has been broken through the years. Call up your arms, and lay your lives! God spare the queen, and raise your flags high!"
"Boudica, Boudica," they sing for they adore
"Boudica, Boudica!"

Monster Love
02:34
|
|||
We met in a downtown vacant lot and she said she had some plans and held no ticket home
We steal a can and we drink it in the store, neither tries to be the quicker
You won't admit that we want each other
You won't admit that we want each other
You won't admit that we want each other; I'm not open in that way either- to a monster love
She stretches when she's useless; she stretches every day- and I am coming around to get her
I don't know why, I don't know why; and so it goes, and so she goes down
You won't admit that we want each other!; I'm not open in that way either- to a monster love!

Witness
04:05
|

Can I get a witness? Can I get someone here to save me?
Can I get a witness? Can I get someone to come along?
Will you take me down to the river? Will you take my brother, too?
I've been traveling down this road for too long, so won't you please just come along?
Four on the floor and a tambourine. I played my part in the big machine.
Daddy died, but he knew better; choked on a steak and bone.
Mama went out with other men- put up a fence around my home.
It's just you and me, sister, we're both great at being alone.
Oh, can he save me?
Can I get a witness?
