Rose Tattoo Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The pictures tell the story

This life has many shades

I’d wake up every morning and before I’d start each day

I’d take a drag from last nights cigarette

That smoldered in its tray

Down a little something and then be on my way

I traveled far and wide

And laid this head in many ports

I was guided by a compass

I saw beauty to the north

I drew the tales of many lives

And wore the faces of my own

I had these memories all around me

So I wouldn’t be alone

[Chorus 1]

Some may be from showing up

Others are from growing up

Sometimes I was so messed up and didn’t have a clue

I ain’t winning no one over

I wear it just for you

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

[Verse 2]

This ones for the mighty sea

Mischief, gold and piracy

This ones for the man that raised me

Taught me sacrifice and bravery

This ones for our favorite game

Black and gold, we wave the flag

This ones for my family name

With pride I wear it to the grave

[Chorus 2]

Some may be from showing up

Others are from growing up

Sometimes I was so messed up and didn't have a clue

I ain't winning no one over

I wear it just for you

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

[Verse 3]

This one means the most to me

Stays here for eternity

A ship that always stays the course

An anchor for my every choice

A rose that shines down from above

I signed and sealed these words in blood

I heard them once, sung in a song

It played again and we sang along

[Bridge]

You’ll always be there with me

Even if you’re gone

You’ll always have my love

Our memory will live on

[Chorus 1]

Some may be from showing up

Others are from growing up

Sometimes I was so messed up and didn’t have a clue

I ain’t winning no one over

I wear it just for you

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

[Outro]

In a rose tattoo

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

With pride I’ll wear it to the grave for you

In a rose tattoo

I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

Signed and sealed in blood I would die for you

Burn Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Bring around the fire, set me up and let me go

I ain't going down until I've had my fill

The chase is nearly ended, the party starts tonight

They said we'd never learn, we never will

[Chorus]

So dance around the fire and kiss the finest girls

I'll see you all in hell, 'cause tonight there's no return

Make way for the mayhem, say goodbye to sorrow

I'll see you all in hell, 'cause we're going out tomorrow

Oh, we're gonna burn

[Verse 2]

The money's all but gone and I got nowhere to go

Keep the change ya filthy animal, 'cause I don't wanna know

I don't care about your stories, I don't want to hear your lies

I see there is no future when I look into your eyes

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

There's a fire in the sky and your face is aglow

We got a few more hours on the radio

It's all that we got, but it ain't what we owe

We're gonna dig up the skeletons and let them go

Cash me out and count me in, it's our time we're gonna win

If you don't, well you can pay the bill

Demons all be damned, catch the sight, enjoy the ride

They said we'd never learn, we never will

[Chorus]

The Season’s Upon Us Lyrics

[Chorus 1]

The season's upon us, it's that time of year

Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer

There's lights on the trees and there's wreaths to be hung

There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung

[Verse 1]

There's bells, and there's holly, the kids are gung-ho

True love finds a kiss beneath fresh mistletoe

Some families are messed up while others are fine

If you think yours is crazy, well, you should see mine

[Verse 2]

My sisters are wackjobs, I wish I had none

Their husbands are losers and so are their sons

My nephew's a horrible, wise little twit

He once gave me a nice gift-wrapped box full of shit

He likes to pelt carolers with icy snowballs

I'd like to take him out back and deck more than the halls

With family like this, I would have to confess

I'd be better off lonely, distraught and depressed

[Chorus 2]

The season's upon us, it's that time of year

Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer

There's lights on the trees and there's wreaths to be hung

There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung

They call this Christmas where I'm from

[Verse 3]

My mom likes to cook, push our buttons, and prod

My brother just brought home another big broad

The eyes rollin', whispers come, love from the kitchen

I'd come home more often if they'd only quit bitchin'

Dad, on the other hand's, a selfish old sod

Drinks whiskey alone with my miserable dog

Who won't run or fetch, yeah, he couldn't care less

He defiled my teddy bear and left me the mess

[Chorus 2]

The season's upon us, it's that time of year

Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer

There's lights on the trees and there's wreaths to be hung

There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung

They call this Christmas where I'm from

[Outro]

The table's set, we raise a toast

The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost

I'm so glad this day only comes once a year

You can keep your opinions, your presents, your Happy New Year

They call this Christmas where I'm from

Out on the Town Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Me and the gang, we were out on the town

In my uninsured '88

It's time to get Maggie down at the bar

She said "Don't you punks dare be late"

It was Saturday night on Hiltop Street

And everybody's dressed to spill

They were having a time for Mary O's boy

Barry, who had recently been killed

In the back of the bar

They were sure having fun

Everybody make some room

She got out of the chair

Threw her fist in the air

And the whole place started to move

[Chorus]

So get up, get up, get with the music

Everybody out of your seat

So get up, get up and get with the music

Maggie's got a brand new beat

[Verse 2]

Tiny was Santa. Red's at the door

And the old brigade's starting to play

Maggie's playing tricks on a few of the boys

She'll take your worries

And your wallet away

Johnny Mac took a slap

From a few older brothers

When her wouldn't dance with Big Marie

But it wouldn't be long

'til they were singing along

With the girl they all came to see

[Chorus]

So get up, get up, get with the music

Everybody out of your seat

So get up, get up and get with the music

Maggie's got a brand new beat

So get up, get up, get with the music

Everybody out of your seat

So get up, get up and get with the music

Maggie's got a brand new beat

[Verse 3]

She was handsome, she was mean

She smoked two packs a days

Since she was 17

A leather face and many a vice

She had a sharper tongue

Than a butcher's knife

She's out past curfew

With the boys in the band

Throwing one last farewell toast

Then she's up with father Dorin

At mass in the morning

Handing out the holy ghost

[Chorus]

So get up, get up, get with the music

Everybody out of your seat

So get up, get up and get with the music

Maggie's got a brand new beat

So get up, get up, get with the music

Everybody out of your seat

So get up, get up and get with the music

Maggie's got a brand new beat

Out of Our Heads Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Are we gonna make it, or is this how we go? (GO!)

Are we gonna take it sitting down? (Hell No!)

We're gonna cause a riot, we're gonna rip it up

We're gonna storm the gates, this place is going' up

[Chorus 1]

Here we go, here we go

We're out of our heads, and it's starting to show

Here we go, here we go

The roof is on fire and it's ready to blow

[Verse 2]

Are we gonna make it, are we gonna let em know? (Know!)

Are we gonna let em bring us down? (Hell No!)

We're gonna crash party every night and everyday (Hey!)

We got em on the run, we are full either way

[Chorus 2]

Here we go, here we go

We're out of our heads, and it's starting to show

Here we go, here we go

The roof is on fire and it's ready to blow

Here we go, here we go

We're out of our minds, and we're letting ya know

Here we go, here we go

The roof is on fire and it's ready to blow

[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 1]
