The Present
The present is in fact not a present
Even though i'm glad that it's here at all
I'd like to think that something is gonna happen
When i know damn well that it won't
All i'll ever do is behold

He took his final breath
I hear it to this day
There's no redemption
And the punishment is delayed
The only reaction that I face
Is hidden well behind my face
A trace surely can

Met here late last night to say affections gone
We enjoyed another night kinda wrong
And no matter how hard I try
I'm gonna go back there again sometime
Hands in pockets and my eyes looking down
...
Enjoy the view yeah from the fence
Note how heads are taking dents
Like the Buddha I calmly wait
While the conflict escalates
Nuclear winter might be set
There's still no clear winner yet
Winner...
Rabid Red Riot suits are not rentals
Neither are wounds on the temples
Gonna get you before the night is through
We are the man and who the ... are you
Chuck a brick at a pig
Change the world one...
Below a pool table I lie
One night in '99
Half asleep when that song begins
Have to go find out who it is
From the basement of the house party
I crawl up three flights of stairs
Like half a zo...
In this here kitchen, there are too many cooks
You can see them fighting and bitching in any place you look
And they act all sinister while cooking us a meal
After dinner's over, we'll see just how...
What is there not to like
I stopped believing the hype
A long time ago and now
Went to the parlor
Where there were no danger
Not like a laser fell to the Reich
Into my skull, I ain't that dull...
There was violence
Up on the road ahead
Where were we going
Where were we being led
I was politely smiling at
Whatever they were laughing at
I stole a document
On a government experiment

I know that mr. Brown gotta a lot of what it takes
I got a big brown bag full of cocaine
And I cannot be friends with mr. Brown
I'd like to put that fucker underground
Down, where he can't syste...
Got good intentions.
Isn't it enough? No, it is not enough.
The comprehension of letting yourself get charmed by a bluff is upon me:
There's nothing I can do,
There's always something I could do.

I am the son of rock'n'roll
I got the masses under my control
I like to drink, I love the dope
I want your money and I want your hope
Your money and your hope
Your money and your hope
Your mon...
If you could look inside my life
And use my eyes, would you pity me?
Would you see the desperate nights
And all the lies that brought me to my knees
I keep thinking that I have to make you fall

I never thought you and me wouldn’t last
And I never thought time would pass us Cuz all of our lives, all of our lives it’s been
Me and you (me and you),
me and you (me and you),

My heart has been a chessboard
Making moves and losing out
Played so many times before
And there ain’t nothing to brag about
Why this must be a new brew
When you caught him singing Blue Moon
You...
When the cold bites your bones
And gets in your heart
It can make you feel hopeless
And fear will come to steal your sun and make it dark
But don’t believe you’re lonely
We’ve all had that moment...
