Groovin' On You
Everywhere we go it seems
That people keep talkin' about you baby,
When you come out to play
It just drives them crazy
They' all wanna get with you
But I know what's yours is mine
They will never get to taste your
Sweet summer wine
Everybody knows the way I feel about you
And they all with that they could feel the same way too,
Well it's easy when I believe,
It's easy when I believe you're lovin' me
'Cause in my mind that's when I'm
Truly
Groovin' on you
And it's truly alright
Truly
Groovin' on you
And it's truly alright
You're truly mine tonight
I may not fit your society
Like your friends of pedigree
Makes them wonder what you're
Seenin' in me.
Well there's a feelin' I can only get
When I love with no regret,
We're not always what we seem
But girl I know that this was
All meant to be
Everybody knows the way I feel about you
And they all with that they could feel the same way too,
Well it's easy when I believe,
It's easy when I believe you're lovin' me
'Cause in my mind that's when I'm
Truly
Groovin' on you
And it's truly alright
Truly
Groovin' on you
And it's truly alright
You're truly mine tonight
I've hoped and
I've prayed it
A whole lifetime
I've waited for her
Now I'm sure.....that I'm
Truly
Groovin' on you
And it's truly alright
Truly
Groovin' on you
And it's truly alright
You're truly mine tonight
Well it's truly alright and you're truly mine tonight
Said it's truly alright
And I'm truly yours
And you'll be truly mine
Tonight.

Dancing Inside Your Mind
It seems just like she's dreamed a thousand dreams of love before
And it seems just like she's cried a million tears or more,
I can see the magic in her and I see the madness in her
Pouring from the shell in which she hides.
Once I felt a feeling die and I realized I never felt it live.
Life's too short for broken promises yet in the end I still hold out my hand to give.
'Cause all I really want is to be a knight in shinning armour
Or be the guy who pulls the sword from out the stone.
I can see the beauty in you, I might be as crazy as you,
But I believe in what I hope to find....
When we go
dan -cing in - side when we go
dancing inside when we go
dan-cing in - side
your mind
Hear the music and close your eyes.
The sound of it will leave you warm inside
Like the fire light we dance by
I can see your diamonds shine through against the darkness in you
But darlin' you'n me'll be there underneath our starlit can o py to night
dancing inside your mind
Like the fire light we dance by
Darlin' you'n me'll be there underneath our starlit canopy tonight
When we go dancing inside your mind
When we go
dan -cing in - side when we go
dancing inside when we go
dan-cing in - side
your mind

Mirror Mirror
She knows so well the streets she walks we never paved with gold
She can't go home where she used to dream, she's getting old.
She want the truth, but the truth is lies, I don't have time to explain it.
And it won't matter anyhow.
I'd laugh but I'll try to contain it.
The night seems oh, so long and she wonders where she went wrong.
Too many men, they don't stay long, then she wanders on anon.
Mira Mira, tell me true now
In my Mira, who are you now,
And what did you do to my lover blue.
Her eyes flash with fight, her search continues, she thinks she's right.
Not an adventure, it's a way of life; she takes the world by sacrifice.
In the comfort of nightly excesses, practiced and perfected,
Her freedom's a higher price than she expected.
Mira Mira, tell me true now
In my Mira, who are you now,
And what did you do to my lover blue.
How long the road she travels on
How far the journey, the journey home
How often does she sleep alone
So near the end and yet so far to go.
She knows so well the streets she walked were never paved with gold
She's heading home where she can dream, before she's old
As the morning dawns she knows she's at the end of her rope
And she knows deep down inside fate rules over hope.
She walked the streets at night so far from home
She loved the city lights now they're all gone.
Mira Mira, tell me true now
In my Mira, who are you now,
And what did you do to my lover blue.

Material Desire

Material Desire
Fully realized in spite of all transcendence
Enlightened by the past time
Being attracted for attention by delineation
I have studied
Consuming hearts ignited by dependence
Enlivened by the best buys
Love is for those who are truly free
Of all material desire
Material desire
Material desire
Love is for those who are truly free
From all material desire
The things we idolize can prey upon our weaknesses
To have, to hold, too much to acquire
Being attended for attraction so that all my see
You are worthy
Where's the point in all this luscious elegance
Displayed for all to admire
The time will come, the end will set you free
From your material desire.
Material desire
Materail desire
Love is for those who are truly free
From all material desire.
Won't sell my heart, won't sell my soul

Seven
Seven times you drained by blood
Seven times I was misunderstood
Seven ones you snared to share your blame
Seven lies you lived to hide your shame.
Every heart is breakable
Love is never fake-able
Every life is take-able
My gun is really loud.
But it's never quite as clean or easy.
Seven drugs to make you come un-hinged
Seven shrugs to justify your binge
Seven boots I've taken in the fray, now
Seven prayers I say to make you go away.
But it's never quite as clean or easy.
Seven deaths I've slowly died
Seven years dissolved by seven lies
Seven boots I've taken in the fray
Seven prayers I say to make you go away

Jesus Has to Kill You

Jesus Has to Kill You
Because of all the things you are
Like the way you cut your hair
And the look that’s in your eyes
And the fashions that you wear
Because you like to stay out late
Chillin’ out and actin’ cool
Play Nintendo in your room
Be yourself, trash all the rules
And because you rush like lemmings
To the next outrageous thrill
Your mind don’t work for nothin’
I doubt it ever will
So for actin’ like humans do
For thinkin’ out of turn
For talkin’ like the Devil too
You’d better be prepared to burn
Cuz this here Bible says it’s true
Jesus has to kill you
As I look down upon you mortals
It brings a tear into my eye
So send your “seeds of faith” to my
Humble, white haired, TV PR guy
Cuz only through those prayer donations
That you must make to me
Can I give your worthless lives a little
Crass validity
Cuz you ain’t candidates for mercy
And you won’t get no late reprieve
It says here in this book that you deserve to die
Since the serpent fucked with Eve
So for actin’ like humans do
And thinkin’ out of turn
For talkin’ like the Devil too
You’d better be prepared to burn
Cuz this here Bible says it’s true
Jesus has to kill you
And it shall come to pass
That if thou will not harken the voice of the Lord thy God
To observe to all his statutes and his commandments
Which I have commanded thee this day
Then it shall come to pass that all these curses
Shall come upon thee and overtake thee
And the Lord shall smite thee with consumption
And with fever with inflammation
And with extreme burning
With the sword and with blasting
And he shall consume you till you perish
And he shall rule you with a rod of iron
And tread you in the wine press
Of the fierceness of the wrath of
Almighty God
There’s a lot of souls to save so send your money in.
Then say the magic prayer words or you won’t go to heav-in.
Cuz the Bible says it’s true
Gerry Falwell says it too
Ya this here Bible says it’s true
Jesus has to kill you.

The Weapon
Choose Life
They never made a bomb that they didn't fuse
They never made a gun that didn't fire
There's never a death that they didn't choose
They never made a weapon that they've never used.
Choose Life
They've never forged a sword that they've never drawn
There never was a science that they didn't misuse
There never was a soldier who wasn't a pawn
The never made a weapon that they've never used

Just Say I / Interview
I burn in my lust for life, full of passion and fight
Face to face with my fate each time.
I thrill soul and body when your feelin' naughty
A smoking gun at the scene of the crime.
I'll live like a sinner and die like a winner
And eat you for dinner when I cross that line
I believe I'll let my freak flag fly
And just say I.
Love is for takin', the dawns slowly breakin',
On the sweat that I'm makin' when I'm in the grind.
Never get used up or dazed and confused
I'm a hell on the loose and that's hard to find.
I'll ditch all the losers and trash all the users
And smash the abusers of the heart and mind
I'll damn all the zeroes I'm one of the heroes
I'll diss all the villains in my chillin' mind
I'm the one who makes you thing
I'm the one who makes you feel
I'm the passion you reveal
I'm the secret you conceal
Announcer:
Barbie has cantracted A.I.D.S.
Dispondant, she blamed Ken for her illness and in an unsuccessful attempt to kill him with his own revolver, left him paralyzed from the waist down. As his condition worsened, Ken's delusions spiraled out of control. Always a conspiracy buff, Ken began linking his shooting with the Kennedy assasination and imagined tie-ins with the CIA and the White House. Gripped by paranoia, Kenny secluded himself in his Oklahoma farm house and eventually began publishing his views in his online magazine, Conspiracy Review.
Ken:
Now, if you knew the President of the United States had commited murder, and the FBI and the CIA were working for him, would you leave your house? The media has lulled our citizens into a false sense of political correctness. The Constitution guarantees me the protection of the First Amendment. Conspiracy Review offends a lot of people, a lot more than the Washington Post does, but I believe that the First Amendment gives me the right to be offensive.

Pictures of You
Nobody, nobody nowhere
Knows how I feel
I'm caught in the middle
Between Heaver and Hell
I might act depressive
But you don't have to guess
My heart is of fire
When I'm feeling like this
People, oh, people
When you're talking to me
Lookin my eyes
What do you see?
The smile I'm wearing
Is looking quite thin
I've got a new wrinkle
For each time I've sinned
Baby, my baby
Where have you gone
I'm pourin' my heart out to you
In this song
How can I tell you?
How can I find,
The words for the music
Of you in my mind
Mira, oh, Mira
Where have you gane
I'm pourin' my heart out to you
In this song
You know I love you
Know it so true
That the songs that I sing
Are just pictures of you
