- Born into Bad Times
Hard done baby, we born out of some real bad times
Everyone says they got heaven but their truth lies in a hateful eye
So I to save my mind bid my heart final farewell
But a faithless heaven brings a faithful little hell
A little hell, heaven for hell, something I knew so well
Just to survive, in these bad times, in these bad times, into these bad, bad times
So unsatisified, in these bad times
Johnny Appleseed came along in my time of need,
- Brutal Hearts
Are you the Brutal Heart?
Are you the Brutal Heart that I've been looking for?
Cause if you're looking for love, you can look for that door.
Hearts.
Hearts that break the night in two.
And arms that can't hold you that true.
- Drive
There must be something in the air tonight
Cause nothing in this town ever feels right
They light it up like the fourth of July
But everything around here seems to die
Why don't we drive through the night?
...until we get back to the coast
We'll pack our bags and put the car in drive
And only take what we can't leave behind
- Elongo
Verse:
The last of some bad debris
Falls through the coconut trees
Twilight claims me
Inching calmly
Through restaurant radios
Came a calypso
Stood with elongo
- Fools Tattoo
You hear the knock on your door
Thats the man asking for more
Coming like a steam train
Something to ease the pain
And when the world starts calming down
Darling I wish you around
Love
- Living in Jungles
Walking round like a ghost in the world
Taking stock of the pretty, pretty girls
When you drop, you hear the whole world stop
Say, “You no ready for this yet, boy!”
Pack it up, take it to your home land
Watch it true to the heart of any man
When you listen knock you where you stand
- May You Be The Road
The road we walk is glitter and gold
Some may be a friend and some may be a foe
If I'm coming from the cold, could you be my road
May you be my road, may you be my road
Bbm F A
Trouble like a fist in the hand
Beating to the heart of a man
- Mountain Top
It all came down today
There's not much left to say
We sit alone and stare
Hotel rooms in nowhere
But we're climbing back up to the mountain top
Climing to that mountain top
Call it what you want,
- Nothing to Say
The rocky red ocean (ohhh)
the news of arrival (ohhh)
down in the marketplace
I came to hear this man say (ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh)
he had, nothing to say(X8)
Born in the blue market(ohhh)
when lightning collided(ohhhh)
- Rude Boy Don't Cry
Hey Millie boy man you go ahead
Me don’t cry see he’s not showing it
Walk it then
So, Rude boy don’t cry
Suburban boys dance in Cadillac’s
Slammin doors to foreign soundtracks
Bad DJ
- Santa Monica
Well I remember
You use to say that you want
A revolution
Someday and you wish up up oh
I remember you’d be tied down and screaming
I was this bad boy who never listened
No one else thought anybody could believe in
- When The Night Feels My Song
I'm on the rocky road
Heading down off the mountain slope
And as my steps echo echo,
louder than before
Another day is done,
say goodbye to the setting sun
See what i found,
Turn back to the ground
