1. GODLESS

Hey, I said you were Godless then
It seems like you're a soulless friend
As thoughtless as you were back then
I swear that you are Godless

Hey, I guess you're lonely, when
I gave, you only took, So then
It's stranger then its ever been
I guess it's what you wanted

Of late, it seems that
Lonely I will be
I beg, I bleed
But this is all that I've gotten

Hey, as for today, my friend
To hope that you could ever bend
I swear you are, I swear you are
I swear that you are Godless

Hey, I said you're Godless then
Hey, and you're a soulless friend
Hey, I said you're Godless and
I swear, I swear

You're Godless
You're Godless
You're Godless


2. MOHAMMED

Again and again I get up and say
I only want to get it right.
I only want to do the right thing,
But are these demons, I ask myself

I wonder today, I'm alone, but then
No one can make their own life
No one can say that they're an island
When all this freedom that you get is a lie


3. NIETZSCHE

I want a God who stays dead, not plays dead
I, even I, can play dead

I want a God who stays dead, not plays dead
I, even I, can play dead

I want a God who stays dead, not plays dead
I, even I, can play dead


4. COUNTRY LEAVER

Well, I'm going to see you soon in Amsterdam
I can't believe I can get there, but I can, man.
I hope when I see you, that you'll still like who I am, I am.
But if you don't, baby, I'll still tell you that I understand
I'll tell you I, I, I understand
I'll tell you I

I'm going to see you in a foreign land
I've packed my bags, oh lord, I'm a traveling man, man
I hope when I see you, you'll still like who I am, I am
But if you don't baby, I'll still tell you I understand
I'll tell you I, I, I understand
I'll tell you I, I, I understand
I'll tell you I

If you don't baby, I'll still tell you I understand.
I'll tell you I, I, I understand
I'll tell you I, I, I understand
I'll tell you I


5. SOLID

Well, I must have a door in the back of my head
Where I dump out all the crap so I can just feel solid again
No more sitting around thinking about your hair
Because I must have a door in the back of my head

Yeah, I got a beautiful new Asian girlfriend
She comes over and hangs around for days in my bed
Yeah, you can't seriously believe I'm thinking about you, man
'Cause I must have a door in the back of my, the back of my head.

Well, it's a brand new day and I'm walking around old town
I feel cool as shit, because I got no thoughts keeping me down
I'm thinking bla-bla-de, bla, bla to your trip
'Cause I must have a door in the back of my, back of my head


6. HORSE PILLS

All right
Pills
Yeah, Uh Huh
Pills
All right, Kick it
Pills
Boy
Pills
Yes

So your ex's got a mansion, where you kick it on the hill.
Your boy comes to see you, he's your Hollywood thrill.
He's a Spanish fly who bucks like a stallion,
In the suits that you got him, he looks more Italian.
When you worry about your tan, when the weathers getting clammy.
Summer in the city, and winters in Miami.
And you get so high on the high-life pills.
Cruising and boozing and rocking on the horse-sized pills.

And you could even take more thrills
And you could even take more spills
Pills
Thrills chills
Ills, man
Kills
And rocking on the horse-sized

Butts getting bigger, do you think he'll notice, maybe
That's ok, don't worry 'bout it baby.
'Cause everybody knows he pumps you for your money
That's all right, don't worry 'bout it honey
In your Itsy-Bitsy Teeny-Weenie riding-up-your-butt bikini
Keeping on the heels, cause you're sagging just a teeny
Bit more then the girls he pretends he doesn't thrill
Rubbing on the lotion and rocking on the horse-sized pills

And you could even take more thrills
And you could even take more spills
Pills
Thrills
Chills
Ills, man kills
And rocking on the horse-sized

Sometime you feel like Moses
That's when you're toasted

Yeah
Kick it
Yo, bitch
Word
That's right
Bust
Uh Huh
Yeah

Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Pills
Rocking on the horse-sized


7. GET OFF

Yeah, like it or not
Like a ball and a chain
All I wanna do is get off
And feel it for a minute, babe

Hot diggity dog
I love God all the same
But all I wanna do is get off
And feel it, feel it, feel it, babe

Baby, come on, yeah
If you have a hard time getting there
Maybe, you're gone
If you find, find yourself against yourself

Yeah maybe I thought
What I thought I would say
That all I wanna do is get off
And feel it for a minute
Like a real big thing, again

I already forgot
Why I thought I was sane
When all I wanna do is get off
And feel it, feel it, feel it babe.

Baby, come on, yeah
If you have a hard time getting there
Maybe you're gone
If you find, find yourself against yourself

Hey, come on, yeah.
If you have a hard time getting there,
Maybe you're gone
If you find, find yourself against yourself.

And like it or not
Like a ball and a chain
All I wanna do is get off
And feel for a minute
Like a real big thing, again

I already forgot
Why I thought I was sane
But all I wanna do is get off
And feel it, feel it, feel it, babe

Baby, come on, yeah
If you have a hard time getting there
Maybe you're gone.
If you find, find yourself against yourself.

Hey, come on, yeah.
If you have a hard time getting there,
Maybe you're gone
If you find, you find yourself against yourself.


8. SLEEP

Well, I could sleep forever
But it's of her I dream
If I could sleep forever
I could forget about everything

If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever


9. COOL SCENE

Well I'm just not making a scene
And I really don't feel like I need.
I really don't mean that it's cool,
Didn't really wanna be in high school.
I'm dealing with the things that I've been.
If it wasn't so appropriate then,
I really don't care what I see,
And I really doubt you know what I mean
And I really don't know what I mean
And I really don't mean that it's cool
Didn't really wanna be in high school

All the talking fools
What it means
Last I've seen
Baby it's all me

I'm just not making a scene
Never really felt that you're a cool being
I really don't know what I'd be,
And it really isn't worth the trying.
I'm feeling pretty chill with nothing
Like I'm living in a world that follows you
Don't really think you know your friends man
Like you're living in a social hydrant
I really don't mean that it's cool
Didn't really wanna be in high school

All the talking fools
What it means
The last I seen
Baby it's all me

Didn't really wanna be in high school.
All the talking fools
What it means
Last I seen
Baby it's all me
Baby, it's all me
Baby, it's all me
Baby, it's all me
Baby, it's all me
Baby, it's all me
It's all me
It's all me


10. BOHEMIAN LIKE YOU

You got a great car
Yeah, what's wrong with it today
I used to have one too
Maybe I'll come and have a look
I really love
your hairdo, yeah
I'm glad you like mine too
See what looking pretty cool will get you

So, what do you do
Oh yeah, I wait tables too
No, I haven't heard your band
'Cause you guys are pretty new
But if you dig on vegan food
Well come over to my work
I'll have them cook you
Something that you'll really love

'Cause I like you
Yeah I like you
And I'm feeling so bohemian like you
Yeah I like you yeah I like you.
And I feel whoa ho woo

Wait
Whose that guy
Just hanging at your pad
He's looking kinda bummed
Yeah, you broke up, thats too bad.
I guess it's fair if he always pays the rent
And he doesn't get bent
About sleeping on the couch when I'm there.

'Cause I like you
Yeah I like you
And I'm feeling so bohemian like you
Yeah I like you
Yeah I like you
And I feel whoa ho woo

I'm getting wise and
I'm feeling so bohemian like you
It's you that I want, so please
Just a casual, casual easy thing
Is it?
It is for me
And I like you yeah I like you
And I like you I like you I like you
I like you I like you I like you
I like you and I feel


11. SHAKIN'

Oh, you got me shakin'
Oh, you got me high.
I didn't know 'til now
I'm not that good, but
You were drinkin' and thinkin' all night
You were hot so you thought
You didn't' want to try.

You were getting older,
I was getting wiser now
You could see no reason
To be any nicer, but
I still can't seem to help but want you back, back, back.

Well, You say I'm lazy,
Well, maybe you're right
I turned around and said
'Hey man, turn that shit off'
Maybe, baby, you act like a star.
You are not anything,
Who do you think you are?

You were getting older,
I was getting wiser now.
You could see no reason
To be any nicer, but
Well, you get what you got,
And you learn how to like it, but
I still can't seem to help but want you back, back, back,

You were getting older,
I was getting wiser, now.
You say you will but you won't,
But you did, but you don't.
Well, you get what you got,
And you learn how to like it.
You could see no reason to be any nicer, but
Any way you slice it, just don't get no wiser,
But I just can't seem to help but want you back, back.


12. BIG INDIAN

My friends, do me so right
I'm lucky this far
Or maybe its karma
I get over them, but
Only at times

And I thank my lucky stars
Wish I may, wish that I might
Just keep an open mind
All of the time
My old man told me one time
You never get wise
You only get older
And most things, you never know why
But that's life

When the future is frightening
And I seem to be fighting it
As soon as it's brightening
Then I, I feel fine
And then I feel fine

Well, My friends do me so right.
I'm lucky this far,
Or maybe it's karma.
I get over them, but
Only at times.

Well, The future is frightening,
And I seem to be fighting.
And as soon as it's brightening,
Well, The future is frightening
The future is frightening,
But I feel fine.
Yes, I feel fine.


13. THE GOSPEL

My sweet love, I'll take you there.
Coming for to carry you home.
I'll take you down still water.
I am coming for to carry you home
No more weary, no more tired
I'm coming for to carry you home.

My sweet love, I'll take you there.
Coming for to carry you home.
Home, I will take you there.

My darling I will shelter you,
Coming for to carry you home.
I'll lay you down, still water
I'm coming for to carry you home.
No more weary, no more tired,
I'm coming' for to carry you home.
Coming for to carry you home.

Home, I will take you there.
Oh, home, I will take you there.

I'll, I will take you there.
Oh, home, I will take you there
