Cut Your Hair Lyrics
[Intro]
Stop it
[Refrain]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
Darling, don't you go and cut your hair
Do you think it's gonna make him change?
I'm just a boy with a new haircut
And that's a pretty nice haircut
Charts are like a puzzle, hitmen wearing muzzles
Hesitate, you die
Look around, around
The second drummer drowned
His telephone is found
[Refrain]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Music scene is crazy, bands start up
Each and every day
I saw another one just the other day
A special new band
I don't remember lying, I don't remember a line
I don't remember a word
But I don't care, I care, I really don't care
Did you see the drummer's hair?
[Refrain]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
"Advertiser looks and chops a must
No big hair"
Songs mean a lot when songs are bought
And so are you
Face right down to the practice room
Attention and fame's a career
Career, career, career
Career, career
[Refrain]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Unfair Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down in Santa Rosa and over the bay
Across the grapevine to LA
We got deserts, we got trees
We got the hills of Beverly
Let's burn the hills of Beverly
[Chorus]
Walk with your credit card in the air
Swingin' nunchakus like you just don't care
This is the slow, sick, sucking part of me
This is the slow, sick, sucking part of me
And when I suck and kiss, it's sour
[Verse 2]
Up to the top of the Shasta Gulch
And to the bottom of the Tahoe Lake
Man-made deltas and concrete rivers
The south takes what the north delivers
You film hack, I don't need your fade
[Chorus]
Lost in the foothills on my bike
Drinking Euro, say goodnight
To the last psychedelic band
From Sacto, Northern Cal
From Sacto, Northern Cal
[Outro]
Take it all, neighbor
You're my neighbor and I need favors
You're my neighbor, you done me favors
'Cause I'm your neighbor
I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash
Gold Soundz Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Go back to those gold sounds
And keep my advent to your self
Because it's nothing I don't like
Is it a crisis or a boring change?
When it's central, so essential
It has a nice ring when you laugh
At the low-life opinions
And they're coming to the chorus now
[Chorus]
I keep my address to yourself 'cause we need secrets
We need secret-cret-cret-cret-crets back right now
[Verse 2]
Because I never wanna make you feel
That you're social, never ignorant soul
Believe in what you wanna do
And do you think that is a major flaw
When they rise up in the falling rain?
And if you stay around with your knuckles ground down
The trial's over, the weapon's found
[Chorus]
Keep my address to myself because it's secret
'Cause it's secret-cret-cret-cret-cret-cret-cret
'Cret-cret-cret-cret-cret-cret back right now
[Verse 3]
So drunk in the August sun
And you're the kind of girl I like
Because you're empty and I'm empty
And you can never quarantine the past
Did you remember in December
That I won't need you when I'm gone?
And if I go there, I won't stay there
Because I'm sitting here too long
[Chorus]
I've been sitting here too long
And I've been wasted, advocating that word for the last word
Last words come up, all you've got to waste
Fillmore Jive Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, lady, what do you need?
Do you think you'd like to come and bleed with me?
I'd like to invite you to taste of my chalice
It's a special one, it's made of gold
(Passed out) Passed out on your couch
You left me there, thank you
Let me sleep it off, I need to sleep it off
I need to sleep, why don't you let me?
I need to sleep, why don't you
[Chorus]
I need to sleep
I need to sleep
I need to sleep
I need to sleep, why won't you let me?
I need to sleep
I need to sleep
I need to sleep, why won't you
Why won't you let me sleep?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
The jam kids on their Vespas
And glum looks on their faces
The street is full of punks
They got spikes
See those rockers with their long curly locks?
Goodnight to the rock 'n' roll era
'Cause they don't need you anymore
Little girl, boy, girl, boy
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
The composers are so distracted
And jazzbo's skinny arms
And the dance faction
Little too loose for me
Every night, it's straight and narrow
Bones get broken, don't lose the marrow
Round and round and round and round she goes
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Pull out their plugs and they snort up their drugs
When they pull out their plugs and they snort up their drugs
Their throats are filled with
