Lyrics


1. THE DOOR

Could've been like before
Could've had to lock the door

Make your mind
Let the door, let the door swing
Only one
Only one to let the door

Wanted to pretend he's dead
Didn't have to pretend

All this and more
Makes no sense to me
All this and more
Makes me drown

Let me know if it's alright
Let me know if you just might


2. SURFIN' BIRD

A-well-a ev'rybody dance about the bird bird bird bird
B-bird's the word oh well-a bird bird bird
Bird is a word oh well-a bird bird bird
Well-a bird is the word oh well-a bird bird bird

3. ROSES (LIVE)

Drained as drained can be
Life is gone from me
Drained if drained is free
If only I could breathe
Smelling dead roses

Take your mind with you
There's no room for two
I can't handle both
Handle both of you

Smelling dead roses

But I won't fall down
No I won't fall down


4. MINOR THREAT (LIVE)

We're not the first, I hope we're not the last
'Cause I know we're all heading for that adult crash
The time is so little, the time belongs to us
Why is everybody in such a fucking rush?!

Make do with what you have
Take what you can get
Pay no mind to us
We're just a minor threat

We're just a minor threat

Early finish, I was late to start
I might be an adult, but I'm a minor at heart
Go to college, be a man, what's the fucking deal!?
It's not how old I am, it's how old I feel

Take your time
Try not to forget
We never will
We're just a minor threat

We're just a minor threat

And that's a promise


5. MADMAN (LIVE)

I can't release you
You're a mad man
Need help to
Madman, Madman

You're tied to alcohol
It starts to take its toll
Madman, Madman
Oh, Madman, Mad

Mind filled with confusion
Your life's an illusion
Madman, Madman...
