LYRICS
darkness + light

 

 

01. Darkness + Light (2:39)

I’ve never seen you do any good

You never do the things you should

You think you’ve got me in your hands

I’ll stop you cold, I’ll foil your plans

 

I’ve seen the darkness, I’ve seen the light

I know it’s time to stand and fight

You think that you’re gonna win tonight

But I know everything will be all right

 

I’ve seen the blood on the printed page

I’ve seen your calm turn to stony rage

I know all the secrets you hide from

I know every twisted thing you’ve ever done

(chorus repeats)

 

I’ve never seen you do any good

You never do the things you should

You think you’ve got me in your hands

I’ll stop you cold, I’ll foil your plans

(chorus repeats 2x)

I know we’re all gonna be all right

02. Pissed (3:43)

Lay it on the line, I know what to say

Said what’s on my mind,

now there’s no escape

Told you what I felt, do you feel?

Told you what I meant, do you feel?

 

You’ve got me so pissed

If I would’ve known it’d end like this

I never would have taken the risk

You’ve got me so pissed

I wanted undeniable bliss

Instead you’ve got me pissed

 

I’m on a wire, I don’t want to dance

If you didn’t feed the fire,

I wouldn’t take the chance

Told you what I feel, do you feel?

Told you what I mean, do you feel?

(chorus repeats)

 

why? I cry for you…

 

What makes you think I’d go out on a limb

If I thought that I wouldn’t win

What makes you think I’d tell you all I do

If I didn’t think you felt it too?

 

Come back for more to see if you let me in

I shouted through the phone

but you won’t let me win

Told me you hear, but do you feel?

Felt you come near, but do you feel?

(chorus repeats 2x)

 

why? I cry for you

why? I’d die for you

03. Garboesque (3:36)

They give until they cry

They cry cause they can’t give

I tell the truth to look like a lie

I lie cause I want to live

Look for another relationship

Search for your companionship

I’m gonna live alone

 

I want to be alone, I want to be alone

I want to be alone can’t you see

I want to be alone, I want to be alone

I want to be alone to be me

 

Look for your salvation

Search in desperation

Just leave me alone

Hide in weightless conditions

Spin through endless traditions

I’m gonna hold my own

(chorus repeats)

 

I want to be alone, I’ve got to be alone

I want to be alone to feel free

I want to be alone, I want to be alone

I want to be alone to feel free

 

You give until you cry

You cry cause you can’t give

I tell the truth to look like a lie

I lie cause I want to live

(chorus 1 & 2 repeat)

 

If you’re all alone and you find me all alone

You could be alone with me

You could be alone with me

04. You’re Not The One (4:00)

You’re not the one

who makes my world come undone

You’re not the one who will be my only one

You’re not the one who sets fire to my heart

You’re not the one who tears my soul apart

You’re not the one

who makes my world come undone

You’re not the one who will be my only one

You’re not the one who sets fire to my heart

You’re not the one who tears my soul apart

 

But you could be the one

to get me off tonight

You could be the one

to make me feel all right

You could be the one

to turn me on and get me through

You’re not the one but you will do

 

What makes you think

I would love you forever

What makes you think

I would leave you never

Why can’t I make you see

We will never be

Cause you’re not the one for me

 

You’re not the one

who makes my world come undone

You’re not the one who will be my only one

You’re not the one who sets fire to my heart

You’re not the one who tears my soul apart

(chorus repeats)

 

But you could be the one

to get me off tonight

You could be the one

to make me feel all right

You could be the one

to turn me on and get me through

You’re not the one but you will do

 

You’re Not The One but you will do

You’re Not The One but you will do

You’re Not The One but you will do

You’re Not The One but you will do

05. Power & Passion (4:30)

Mighty Joe Young

with his finger and his thumb

Hitched a ride out to LA

Flat on his back he fell into the crack

And watched his body fade away

 

Little Bo Beep couldn’t get to sleep

So she ran to the man to find

The coke and the dope

that helped her to cope

And she left her dreams far behind

 

You can’t believe everything that they say

Not when you’re trying to get to the top in LA

 

There’s always power and passion

Little ways to keep you where you are

There’s always power and passion

You better check your head

before you go too far

 

King Kid Hot heard a pistol pop

And never turned around to see the face

Down in the ground he won’t hear a sound

And another stepped in to take his place

 

You can’t say

we don’t need help around here

Not when the cries of the innocent

are so clear

(chorus repeats x 2)

06. Can’t Say No To That (2:23)

Split like a lip, grasping for the tip

Ready to take a hit, yeah,

I wanna piece of that

Love on the rise, lust in your eyes

Arrive in surprise and dying to hit the mat

 

I can’t say no, I can’t say no, I can’t say no

I Can’t Say No To That

I can’t say no, I can’t say no, I can’t say no

I could never say no to that

 

Down for the count, up for the pout

Down to the ground on your limber knees

Up for the night, flexing so tight

You want me for a ride

and a ride is what I need

(chorus repeats)

 

Oh baby, why you drive me crazy?

Oh baby, why you drive me,

why you drive me so crazy?

 

Stop for a while til I see that smile

Go back to the pile and back at it again

Ready to drop, dying to pop

Oh you gotta stop, before I go insane

(chorus repeats 2x)

 

oh baby, why you drive me crazy?

07. Auto 54 (3:40)

La, la, la, la

You’ve got my heart burning so fast

When we’re together it’s always a gas

You put me into overdrive

Speed so fast I come alive

No questions asked,

I’m ready to take a ride

 

Auto 54 – what do you have in store

You make my skin grin with your driving sin

Auto 54 – you give me so much more

Than just a thrill of your metal grill

 

La, la, la, la

You take my love

then burn rubber down the road

You hold the stick shift

like it’s the mother lode

Put me in the driver’s seat

Let me feel the heat

No systems checked,

I’m ready for the street

(chorus repeats)

 

La, la, la, la

You’ve got my heart burning so fast

When we’re together it’s always a gas

Never felt the fright

From steel belted whites

No questions asked, I’m gonna take a ride!

(chorus repeats 2x)

08. Johnny Misunderstood (2:12)

Johnny’s outside

cleaning up the neighborhood

But don’t let him fool you

Johnny wasn’t good

Mama said he’s just misunderstood

But that was then and this is now

 

Johnny saw the glitter

from the blade of a knife

And his little game almost cost a life

In his dark eyes I saw the flicker of a light

But that was then, this is now

That was then, this is now

 

Johnny was cool, Johnny was tough

Johnny caught me looking

and Johnny called my bluff

Johnny didn’t know I was secretly in love

But that was then, this is now

That was then, this is now

 

Johnny carved initials

on his parents’ table leaf

Then he stole their car

cause he wanted to be free

We didn’t get far but I really did believe

But that was then, this is now

 

Johnny was cool, Johnny was tough

Johnny caught me staring

and Johnny called my bluff

Johnny doesn’t know that I’m secretly in love

But that was then, this is now

That was then, this is now

That was then, this is now

09. My Wounds (3:00)

I tried to be in love with you

Tried to keep my cool

Tried to be your doormat,

Your punching bag and fool

When you hit high, I hit low

There was nowhere to go but the floor

 

Who says living for nothing’s living cheap

Who cares about wounds

as long as they’re deep

I wouldn’t give up anything

for my man everything

And all the wounds he gave to me

 

I tried to hold onto you

Tried to keep my tongue tied

Tried to be your sex slave

Your love doll and enslaved bride

When you hit high, I hit low

There was nowhere to go but the floor

(chorus repeats)

 

Someday I’ll know why,

One day I’ll find mine

Someday I’ll know why

A good man is so hard to find

(chorus repeats 2x)

10. Need (4:40)

Hey there lover come inside

Undo your pants, loosen your tie

I’ve been burning all day through

I have a yearning for you

 It’s just a need,

Scratching, clawing, aching to be freed

It’s a need,

Come up inside you to feel the same as I do

Fulfill the need and you’ll be freed

 

And if you’re feeling lonely and need release

Don’t hesitate

knocking me down to my knees

Don’t you ever think

That you’re alone without means

I will always be here to fulfill your need

 

Hey there lover, don’t be shy

Come to me, come inside

Feel the power, feel the strain

Fulfill me over and over again

 

And if you’re feeling lonely and need release

Don’t hesitate

knocking me down to my knees

Don’t you ever think

That you’re alone without means

I will always be here to fulfill your need

 

Hey there lover, hold on tight

I’ll make you feel like a winner tonight

No questions, no excuse

I am here for you to use

 

It’s just a need,

Scratching, clawing, aching to be freed

It’s a need,

Come up inside you to feel the same as I do

It’s just a need

Scratching, clawing, aching to be freed

And I will always be here

to fulfill your every need

 

I feel it, he feels it, we all feel the need

I feel it, he feels it, we all feel the need

11. Radio (3:40)

You can’t see tits on the radio

But eager listeners still bop to and fro

She’s been looking for her way in

Itching and twitching to sell her skin

She can’t sing a note, we’ll incorporate

Textile voices on a paper plate

A little redub and overhaul

That won’t bother the suits at all

 

Cause she can really move it

Yeah, yeah

She can shake her booty

Yeah, yeah

She can really sell it

Yeah, yeah

Let’s get her ass on the radio

 

You can really move it,

You can shake your booty

You should be on the radio

You can really sell it,

You can really shock it

Let’s get your ass on the radio

 

Girly curls like a beauty queen

They’ll pay to get a taste of her silky sheen

We’ll hire some writers with hooks so deep

She’ll call to the masses of the insane and weak

 

Cause she can really move it

Yeah, yeah

She can shake her booty

Yeah, yeah

She can really sell it

Yeah, yeah

Let’s get her ass on the radio

 

You can really move it,

You can shake your booty

You should be on the radio

You can really shock it,

You can really hock it

Let’s get your ass on the radio tonight

 

She can really move it

She can shake her booty

She can really sell it

She can really shock them

Let’s get her ass on the radio

Let’s get her ass on the radio

(chorus repeats 2x)
