1. COLDER THAN THE COLDEST WINTER WAS COLD

By the end of the great war,
The Dandy Warhols had progressed
Far beyond the traditional jug band sound.
Zia had all but hung up the washtub bass,
In favor of her new invention, which she called the synthesizer

The banjo was still there but now it was electrified
To a flat microphone which Pete had wound tightly with copper wire and
Called his pick-up and in turn made it louder by what fat-head jokingly
Called, Pete's Amp.
Well, the name stuck and by the time such luminaries as Gene Vincent, Elvis
Presley and B.B. King had heard this new Warhols Sound
They were calling it rock and roll

Dandy frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor would be quoted as saying
I know it's only rock and roll, but I think i like it
I'm Bill Curtis and you're listening to a piece of history


2. LOVE IS THE NEW FEEL AWFUL

I don't know where I said anything like that. I have no fucking clue.

So what about you
Convincing me all the time
Oh my aching heart
Forget all

And what about me
Deciding you all of the time
My aching heart
Forget all

Announcing me
Is all about you all of the time
My aching heart
Forget all

And what about me
Deciding you all the time
Oh my aching heart
Forget all

It's all about you
Convincing me
All the time
Oh my aching heart
Forget all

And what about me
Deserving you
Of the time
Oh my aching heart
Forget all

So what about you
What about you
Oh my aching heart
Forget all

3. EASY

And I don't think about I could ever represent I've been to
I guess it's easy for me and that's the kind of easy that I'm into
The xmas sexy said next and said all the little babies
Now go
Baby gonna let you
I thought that you could set you free

Luxury cars and a sweet guitar
Sleeping at nearling cause I'm rocking easy says I catch you
I thought that you could set you free
Oh the xmas sexy no said next and sex floors and ecstasy
Hot and said next decks on a whole'a baby on a holograph I'm maybe gonna let you
I thought that you could set you free
I thought that you could set you free


4. ALL THE MONEY OR THE SIMPLE LIFE HONEY

All right
Here it comes

Well I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good
Well if you ask me how you made it
Secure life, baby, you should
Oh, yes you should
Cause if you're doing all the best that you can
But you're still running just as fast as the man says
Well I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good
Uh-huh, now
Yes it's good

Now when you're moving to the city
You worry on your mental health
Yes you do, now
Oh, you gentlemen and ladies
You've got to be good to yourself
So get yourself into a ranch-style home
When the neighbor's never more than a stone's throw
Well I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good
Yes it is
Yes it's good

That's right
Yeah

But oh, no
All the money
Still you just can't please everybody
How bad do
Do you want it
Cause the money
It looks so good, good, good

Yeah
Whoo!
Yeah

So now you're chasing the American dream
Just like the dollar's gonna make everybody scream
But I can tell you for the money
The simple life sure looks good
That's right, now
Yes it's good
Oh yeah

Oh, no
All the money
Looks so good, good, good
To everybody
How bad do
Do you want it
Cause the money
It looks so good, good, good

Now there's a whole lot of faking
And taking
And shaking my hand
And when they tell you they love you
They love you like a one night stand
So if you're playing in a rock and roll band
But still you're doing whatever the man says
Well I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good
That's right
Yes it's good

Take care

8. EVERYONE IS TOTALLY INSANE

Hear me out, for I was joyful once
Like everyone
Hear me out, I must have changed
Sometime and all at once
Cos it seems
That nothing stays the same as certainly as me
And nothing stays the same but me

Well I have toiled and I have tamed
Constricted and constrained
Just to learn about how everyone is sane
Well I am old and I am lame
And ruthlessly (?) estranged
Ask me then what I have gained from almost everyone

Hear me out, for I have everything in deep
Hear me out, I must have changed

Well I have toiled and I have tamed
Constricted and constrained
Just to learn about how everyone is totally insane, now
Well I am old and I am lame
And ruthlessly estranged
Ask me then what I have gained from almost everyone

Hear me out, for I was joyful once
Like everyone
Hear me out, I must have changed

2. NOT IF YOU WERE THE LAST JUNKIE ON EARTH

I never thought youd be a junkie
Because heroin is so passe.
But today,
If you think that I dont know
About depression and
Emotional pain,
Youre insane, or your
A fool who hasnt paid attention
To a word that I say.

In a way, I cant
Help but feel responsible.
I always knew that you were insane
With your pain.

But I never thought youd be a junkie
Because heroin is so passe
Now a-day.
You never thought youd get addicted,
Just be cooler in an obvious way.
I could say, shouldnt you have got
A couple peircings and decided
May-be that you were gay.

In a way
I cant help but feel responsible,
I always knew that you were insane
With you pain

But I never thought youd be a junkie
Because heroin is so passe hey...
