Track Lyrics

Intro Lyrics

[Spoken]

When we're ready to sing

We step up to the microphones

And it comes out something like this

Come Out Swinging Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You brace and hold it all inside

It's more than you can stand

No one around even tries

Tries to understand

[Chorus]

Don't turn away, don't turn away

Come out swingin', come out alone

They're in your way, they're in your way

As long as you're swingin' strong then you'll get by

[Verse 2]

Your pacing's wearin' out a line

Right beside your bed

The scene replays a million times

Stuck inside your head

And though you stand in place

Your mind escapes

Read between the lies

Smile's on your face

You fake like you're okay

[Chorus]

Don't turn away, don't turn away

Come out swingin', out on your own

They're in your way, they're in your way

You may be stingin', you'll get by

Don't turn away, don't turn away

Come out swingin', never alone again

[Post-Chorus]

Pain inside can guide your way

[Bridge]

Midnight, no sleep, oh

Inside, you scream to

No one hears you fall

Daylight, prove me today, day

One more try

[Chorus]

Don't turn away, don't turn away

Come out swingin', come out alone

They're in your way, they're in your way

You may be stingin', you'll get by

Don't turn away, don't turn away

Come out swingin', never alone again

[Outro]

Pain inside leads you (Leads you)

Through so you'll get by

Original Prankster Lyrics

[Intro: Rob Schneider]

You can do it!

[Verse 1: Dexter Holland, Jeanette Washington]

Until the break of dawn — life, life

Cannot go by the letter — time, time

Prozac can make it better — noise, noise

Any kind will do

Can you feel it slip away when it's all on you? (Hey, hey)

Crime, crime

Rockin' like Janet Reno — time, time

Eighteen and life in Chino — Freud, Freud

All along it's true

Well, you'll see there comes a day catches up to you, yeah!

[Chorus: Dexter Holland, Redman]

Knock down the walls (It's alive in you!)

Knock down the place (You're alone, it's true!)

Knock down the walls (It's alive in you!)

You gotta keep your head up through it all

You're gonna bust out on it (Original prankster)

Break out, yeah! (Original, yeah)

Bust out on it (Original prankster)

You never stop now, stop now

That's what the main man say!

[Interlude: Rob Schneider]

You can do it!

[Verse 2: Dexter Holland, Jeanette Washington]

You know it smells like shit — Goddamn!

Tag Team the Double Header

Son of Sam — fire always makes it better

Navigate with style and aplomb

'Cause wherever you're at, that's the tip youse on! (Hey, hey)

Lies, lies

Says he's down in the Bahamas — tries tries

Bangin' little hoochie mamas — no way

None of this is true

Well, you'll see there comes a day when the joke's on you, yeah!

[Chorus: Dexter Holland, Redman]

Knock down the walls (It's alive in you!)

Knock down the place (You're alone, it's true!)

Knock down the walls (It's alive in you!)

You gotta keep your head up through it all

You're gonna bust out on it (Original prankster)

Break out, yeah! (Original, yeah)

Bust out on it (Original prankster)

You never stop now, stop now

That's what the main man say!

[Interlude: Jeanette Washington, Rob Scheinder]

(Hey)

You can do it!

[Bridge: Dexter Holland]

Dime, dime — so good to see ya

Nein, nein — don't wanna be ya

Dime, dime — so good to see ya

Nine, nine — don't wanna be ya

Crime, crime — fine sinsemilla

Well, you'll see there comes a day catches up to you, yeah!

[Chorus: Dexter Holland, Redman]

Knock down the walls (It's alive in you!)

Knock down the place (You're alone, it's true!)

Knock down the walls (It's alive in you!)

You gotta keep your head up through it all

You're gonna bust out on it (Original prankster)

Break out, yeah! (Original, yeah)

Bust out on it (Original prankster)

You never stop now, stop now

That's what the main man say!

Want You Bad Lyrics

[Verse 1]

If you could only read my mind

You would know that things between us ain't right

I know your arms are open wide

But you're a little on the straight side, I can't lie

[Pre-Chorus]

Your one vice

Is you're too nice

Come around now, can't you see?

[Chorus]

I want you all tattooed

I want you bad

Complete me, mistreat me

I want you to be bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

[Verse 2]

If you could only read my mind

You would know that I've been waiting so long

For someone almost just like you

But with attitude, I'm waiting, so come on

[Pre-Chorus]

Get out of Clothestime

Grow out those highlights

Come around now, can't you see?

[Chorus 2]

I want you in a vinyl suit

I want you bad

Complicated, X-rated

I want you bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad

[Bridge]

Don't get me wrong

I know you're only being good

But that's what's wrong

I guess I just misunderstood

[Chorus]

I want you all tattooed

I want you bad

Complicated, X-rated

I want you bad

[Outro]

I mean it, I need it

I want you bad, bad, bad, bad, bad

Bad, really, really bad

Million Miles Away Lyrics

[Verse 1]

There was a time, looking through myself

Wanting to pretend

If I escaped, I could fill myself

I don't think you can

Been far and wide

But that hole inside

Never really leaves

When I went away, what I really left

Left behind was me

[Pre-Chorus 1]

It's telling me

To be on my way

Home

[Chorus]

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Million miles away

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Million miles away

I can't stay, I can't stay

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

A million miles away

[Verse 2]

Each passing day, every passing face

Seems like such a blur

I long to be home, silently

Lying next to her

Just to get back, by her side is all

All I need to be

I went away, but what I really left

Left behind was me

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I need to be

Getting on my way

Home

[Chorus]

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Million miles away

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

A million miles away

[Pre-Chorus 1]

It's telling me

To be on my way

Home

[Outro]

I can't take, I can't take

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

Million miles away

Dammit, I Changed Again Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hey, come inside

While I stand here actin' bold

(Can't stand to feel this way)

Clear out the cobwebs in my soul (Wo-o-o-oah)

[Chorus]

This time I turn around, things have changed

Now I don't feel the same, yeah

Start a fight, I can't defend

One more time, dammit, I changed again

[Verse 2]

Now I don't see

Things the way I did before

(Can't stand to feel this way)

Things I feel yesterday

Don't matter anymore (Wo-o-o-oah)

Doesn't make any sense

To feel so different day to day

(Can't stand to feel this way)

When nothing's changed except for (Wo-o-o-oah)

[Chorus]

Next time I turn around, things have changed

Now I don't feel the same, yeah

Start a fight, I can't defend

One more time, dammit, I changed again

Turn around, things have changed

Now I don't feel the same, yeah

Start a fight, I can't defend

One more time, dammit, I changed again

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

Turn around, things have changed

Now I don't feel the same, yeah

Start a fight, I can't defend

One more time, dammit, I changed again

Turn around, things have changed

Now I don't feel the same, yeah

Turn around, I can't defend

One more time, dammit, I changed again

[Outro]

(Wo-o-o-o-o-o-oah)

(Wo-o-o-oah)

I see ya

Living in Chaos Lyrics

[Intro]

Got a song, song, man

It goes like this

[Verse 1]

Somewhere the time was right

Could have been gone in ten

This world is hard to fight

Hitting you once, hit it again

To know the way it feels

Everyone gets knocked down

When you get up it's real

By taking it back, turn it around

[Chorus]

Get on it, up on it

Get on it—wouldn't wanna be you

Get on it, up on it

Get on it—no one's gonna free you

You know, when you're keeping it slow

No matter where you wanna go—wouldn't wanna be you

Get on it, up on it

It's on—we're living in chaos

[Verse 2]

Somewhere along the line

Things get chipped away

This place keeps going down

Gets a little worse every day

I see hate and greed

This world's a messed up town

Embrace the pain and see

By taking it back, you turn it around

[Chorus]

Get on it, up on it

Get on it—wouldn't wanna be you

Get on it, up on it

Get on it—no one's gonna free you

You know, when you're keeping it slow

No matter where you wanna go—wouldn't wanna be you

Get on it, up on it

It's on

[Bridge]

Falling, falling

Ya, ya, ya

Got a song, song, man

It goes like this

[Verse 1]

Somewhere the time was right

Could have been gone in ten

This world is hard to fight

Hitting you once, hit it again

To know the way it feels

Everyone gets knocked down

When you get up it's real

[Outro]

Falling, falling

Ya, ya, ya

Get on it, up on it, get on it

Ya, ya, ya

Get on it, up on it, get on it

(No one's gonna free you)

Get on it, up on it, get on it

Ya, ya, ya

Special Delivery Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Hey now, do you see me down the way?

Been watching you every day

In my car on your street is where I stay

I know you better that way

One day, I'll be meeting you for real

You'll feel bad like I feel

[Chorus]

It'll blow you away

You're going to fall for me

And the voices told me to blow you away

You're going to fall for me

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

Hey now, well, I'm knocking on your door

This special delivery is yours

My infatuation, it's true

Hello, got something for you

[Chorus]

It'll blow you away

You're going to fall for me

And the voices told me to blow you away

You're going to fall for me

If you hadn't sold me, I'd still be away

You're right in front of me

Then, I'll be on my way

Breathing you okay

[Bridge]

(Ugachaka, ugachaka, uga, uga)

Can't break from my sins

Cannot pray

Can't break from my sins

Cannot pray

But you can't kill a man when he's got no hope

You can't kill a man when he's got no hope

You can't kill a man when he's...

God help me!

[Chorus]

It'll blow you away

You're going to fall for me

And the voices told me to blow you away

You're going to fall for me

If you hadn't sold me, I'd still be away

You're right in front of me

Then, I'll be on my way

When you breathe onto me

One Fine Day Lyrics

[Verse 1]

If I had a perfect day

I would have it start this way

Open up the fridge and have a tall boy, yeah

Then I'd meet up with my friends

Head out to the game again

We don't even really care who wins, wins, 1, 2, 3

[Chorus]

Now excitement seems to grow

When we're hanging with the bro's

When we're chilling and we pound a case of Stroh's

Now the game is cool to see

You can "High 5" on TV

Count the riot on the one, two, three

Operation is in sight

And the field is open wide

When you break it, then you know you're still alive

If the cops don't make you pay

And you make your getaway

Then you know that it's one fine day

[Verse 2]

On that day before we're through

We could torch a car or two

Then have ourselves another tall boy, yeah

Water hoses and batons

That's the real game that's on

I don't really give a shit who wins, wins, 1, 2, 3

[Chorus]

Now excitement seems to grow

When we're hanging with the bro's

When we're chilling and we pound a case of Stroh's

Now the game is cool to see

You can "High 5" on TV

Count the riot on the one, two, three

Operation is in sight

And the field is open wide

When you break it, then you know you're still alive

If the cops don't make you pay

And you make your getaway

Then you know that it's one fine day

[Bridge]

I believe it's my God-given right

To destroy everything in my sight

’Cause it never gets dull, it never gets old

The only thing it gets is more bold

Drinkin', fightin', going to the game

In our world it's a way to stay sane

If you're asking me to have it my way

I'd say that's one fine day

[Chorus]

Now excitement seems to grow

When we're hanging with the bro's

When we're chilling and we pound a case of Stroh's

Now the game is cool to see

You can "High 5" on TV

Count the riot on the one, two, three

Operation is in sight

And the field is open wide

When you break it, then you know you're still alive

If the cops don't make you pay

And you make your getaway

Then you know that it's one fine day

Then you know that it's one fine day, now

Hey, hey, hey hey

All Along Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Deep inside secret's burning

Should have known all the while what's true

I went along, to fool myself

Can't go on, I can't escape it

[Chorus]

All along

I think I really knew

It was there in the words unspoken

All along

Still believed in you

Now I'm leaving here betrayed and broken

[Verse 2]

Close my eyes from the burning

All along, all the while it's true

Take it on, or turn your back

Either way, you can't escape it

[Chorus]

All along

I think I really knew

It was there in the words unspoken

All along

Still believed in you

Now I'm leaving here betrayed and broken

[Interlude]

Ooooh

[Chorus]

All along

I think I really knew

It was there in the words unspoken

All along

Still believed in you

Now I'm leaving here betrayed and broken

[Outro]

All along

I still believe in you

Denial, Revisited Lyrics

[Verse 1]

So here we go

Having the same old fight again

Though there she goes

Same old game that never ends

If I could say all the right words

I know I could make you stay

If I could say all the right words

Things would work out all right

[Chorus 1]

And if you go

I won't believe

That it's forever

And you can go

But I'll never leave

’Cause it's not over

[Verse 2]

Replay last night

Talking it out don't make it right

I know she's tried, but my whole world

Is her and all we've got now

[Chorus 2]

And if you go

I won't believe

That it's forever

I won't let go

Even if she

Says that it's over

I know it'll be

Different this time

If you'd just stay

[Bridge]

And when we wrote this story how did it end?

It was you and me for all our lives

Come on, don't say it, we'll try again

And if I'd just hold you we could last

But she stands softly, tears down her face

Hitting me, oh God, this is the end

I'd wait for you but there's nothing more now I can do

[Outro]

How did you know?

Finally

Vultures Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Now I could lie by your side

All serrated for you

Down below, cancer grows

Weeping waits inside you, too

Now all our rage begs a stage

It's a waste of time, though

And your style seems worthwhile

But this lonely road has turned

[Pre-Chorus 1]

(Woah) And you faded there

(Woah) They pretend to care

(Woah) Vultures waiting

If you don't like me

Certify me

[Chorus]

Yeah‚ I don't know, yeah

Yeah‚ I won't go, yeah

Yeah‚ save it, I'm okay

Okay

[Verse 2]

And in the sun, a loaded gun

Makes for conversation

All the while in denial

It's too late for me to change

[Pre-Chorus 2]

(Woah) And you were unchained

(Woah) Nothing more had changed

(Woah) I could fake it

If you still hate me

Confiscate me

[Chorus]

Yeah‚ I don't know, yeah

Yeah‚ I won't go, yeah

Yeah‚ save it, I'm okay

Okay

Yeah‚ I won't play, yeah

Yeah‚ go away, yeah

Yeah‚ save it, I'm okay

Okay

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus 2]

(Woah) And you were unchained

(Woah) Nothing more had changed

(Woah) I could fake it

If you still hate me

Confiscate me

[Chorus]

Yeah‚ I don't know, yeah

Yeah‚ I won't go, yeah

Yeah‚ save it, I'm okay

Okay

Yeah‚ I won't play, yeah

Yeah‚ go away, yeah

Yeah‚ save it, I'm okay

Okay

Conspiracy of One Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Red over white

It's one last fatal scene

Brought on by someone unseen

Moving on their own

Bring on the night

And bring us all to our knees

All are gone and none agreed

One who acts alone

[Chorus]

Nobody wins

Nobody hears us fall

Nobody wins

When it's done

Conspiracy of one

[Verse 2]

Bring on the night

And bring us all to our knees

All are gone and none agreed

One who acts alone

Red over white

It's one last fatal scene

Brought on by someone unseen

Moving on their own

[Chorus]

Nobody wins

Nobody hears us fall

Nobody wins

When it's done

Conspiracy of one

Nobody wins

Nobody hears us fall

Nobody wins

When it's done

Conspiracy of one

[Chorus]

Nobody wins

Nobody hears us fall

Nobody wins

When it's done

Conspiracy of one

Nobody wins

Nobody hears us fall

Nobody wins

When it's done
