You're guilty of crime in the first degree,
Second and third as well. My jury finds you'll be serving your time When you go straight to hell. 'Cause he was Lord of the Lightning, Though "socially frightening", But never out to sell. Their nickels and pence Meant more than did sense, And not the sensible thing. Nor did the man outta time, man outta time. Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind. Man outta time, man outta time. All along, world was wrong. You was right. All that he saw, all he conceived, They just could not believe. Steinmetz and Twain were friends that remained, Along with number three. He was electromagnetic, completely kinetic, "New Wizard of the West." But they swindled and whined that he wasn't our kind, And said Edison knew best. He was the man outta time, man outta time. Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind. Man outta time, man outta time. Said you was outta your mind! You took a shot and it did you in. Edison's medicine. You played your cards, but you couldn't win. Edison's medicine. I spent twelve years of hard time, More like the best years of my life. Never heard or read a single word About "the man" and his "wicked mind." They'll sell you on Marconi. Familiar, but a phony. Story goes they sold their souls And swore that you'd never know. About the man outta time, man outta time. Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind. Man outta time, man outta time. Swore you was outta your mind! You took a shot and it did you in. Edison's medicine. You played your cards, but you couldn't win. Edison's medicine. |

I'm in love with a lady
And I know the lady's in love with me And she knows how to always be there That's why she's willin' and ready But now and then, every once in a while Something inside of me, maybe inside of her... Have you ever had one of those days Where it all is going wrong And it just can't seem to get along? But through it all you know you're gonna make it. Call it true love Call it not meant to be You can call it anything at all, you see. Call it what you want It's all the same to me. Music means a lot to me Like love, I make it when I can. All I am is all I'll ever be And that's just a boy from Texarkana. But now and then oh, but once in a while, They start treating me like some kind of superstar. Need I mention, at the end of the day What matters most of all It's not where you're at Or where you're comin' from When all is said and done You can call it... Heavy metal, hard-core, pop, punk, or thrash You can call it anything, it don't matter to me Call it what you want It's all music to me Call it communism, call it free Some call the ocean what some call the sea Call it what you want That doesn't change a thing for me Not a thing... Baby's lyin' in the cradle Universe is all within his reach Wearin' rags or mink and sable Needs a guidin' hand or it's out on the streets Now momma's out She's never at home Daddy's taking care of business He's out on the road It's rainin' cats and dogs But the child within us all must face the storm Call it individuality Some call it fate, others reality Call it what you want It doesn't matter to me Call it communism, call it free Some call the ocean what some call the sea Call it what you want That doesn't change a thing for me Not a thing! |

Time.
You've got to wake up ev'rybody, Seven-thirty o'clock, It's time to go to work. A-send the young to school, Gonna teach them the golden rule. Talk about things that they don't wanna know about. Now teacher, teacher, can't you see, I'm tired and I need some sleep. I don't wanna hear whatcha gotta say About arithmetic or history. All that jive don't mean a thing to me. It's all a waste of time. I ain't got no time for doin' this, Ain't got no time for doin' that, Ain't got no time for that at all, no! I ain't got no time for messin' 'round, For funky bullshit goin' down. Just time for rock-n-roll. Oh yeah. I just got time to rock-n-roll. Why now, must they take my favorite song, Turn around and say it's wrong, when I know it's right? Now, why don't they just leave it alone, 'Cause it's only rock-n-roll, but I like it!! Now, listen Mrs. Politician, Don't ya try to tell me how to sing my song. Tell me, who do you think you are?! Who do you think you are?! I ain't got no time for messin' 'round, For funky bullshit goin' down. No time for that at all, no! I ain't got no time for Uncle Sam, Taxin' my money, tax my land. Just time for rock-n-roll, woh yeah! I just got time to rock-n-roll! Tell 'em, Frankie!! |

Go straight to hell,
All you government personnel, Sittin' awf'ly well In your big, white house up on the hill. You say now, give me a home Where the buffalo roam, Where the deer and antelope play. You can bet your ass we'll blow them all away. Fuck it up until it's bent, Then a-wonder where it went. Thinkin' you was a-heaven sent, ha ha ha, You're nothin' but hell! Go straight to hell. |

I pledge no allegiance to your flag.
I feel I got me some damn good reasons for feelin' bad. Way they take away ev'ry mother's son, If you want freedom now, it's got to be won. It's only bullets. It's just a gun. Ain't gon' hurt no one. I don't know what they must be thinkin'. Makin' decisions on a hard night's drinkin'. Momma, gon' take your little boy. Gonna make him 'to a man, Make him a stranger in a strange land. (Chorus:) Freedom slaves What have you done Freedom slaves With ev'ry mother's son? Freedom slaves Can't ya see that we're all freedom slaves? Freedom slaves What have you done? Freedom slaves And all for number one. Freedom slaves It's clear to see that we're all freedom slaves. No sign of justice nor liberty By takin' an Indian Nation, 'cause they was all that we wanted to be. All good people from the Kingdom of the Sun. Welcome to freedom. Now, there's work to be done. It's only natural to know it's wrong. Why did it go so long? I don't know what next they'll be killin', Rapin' the land with pollution and spillin'. Here's to the tired, to the hungry, to the helpless and the poor. Is there no glory for blisters and sores? (Chorus) Who are those people? So patriotically sittin' back of tables POn their asses, lickin' labels, tryin' to change me. You'd think the way they act, the way they carry on, You'd think that I was the devil's Seventh Son. But it's only words. It's just a song. Ain't gonna hurt no one. (Chorus) Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Attention! About Face! March! Left, right, left, right, left, right. Your momma, she was a....(fade out) |

And, honey, that's a whole lot better, whole lot better than before. Lord! 'Cause you look so good. Yes, you look so fine. Let's steal away and blow each other's minds. Come on, baby. Keep takin' me higher. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and higher! (Chorus:) I've had enough! Ah, maybe too, too much. And with a little luck, You know I'll get back up On my feet again. Ah, too much! Too much to drink, too much to smoke. I wasn't lookin' when it took a hold on me. And it sure got a hold on me. Oh, and it won't let go. Oh no. I've never been this far before. Have I reached the point, the point of no return? When will I learn? (Chorus 2x) I've had enough! I've had enough! Ah, maybe too, too much. I've had enough! |

And if we feel it's all a mess, yeah, yeah, Why don't we try a little, try a little love 'n' tenderness. If we got more than comes around, yeah, yeah, Why don't we care a little, share a little. Sure to come back around. Guitar! Lately everybody's thinkin' Me, my, only I thinkin' for me. Here lately, everbody's talkin', baby. But we all know that talk is cheap.

Do you know where I'm comin' from? As the bass plays on, and still the guitars strum, While the Colonel beats the drum, so the whole band plays along, And the whole world sings a song, yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And before it falls apart, yeah, yeah, Live a little, give a little, straight from the heart. If this whole world gets ya down, yeah, yeah, You gotta pick it up and toss it in the air.

Stir it up, baby, stir it up, Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, Stir it up now, stir it up, baby. Stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby, stir it up, Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, Stir it up now, stir it up, baby. And you know: Nobody gets somethin' for nothin'. Nobody's gettin' it for free. (Spoken:) But you know These days now nothin' costs ya somethin', baby. And-a there ain't no tellin what it could be. So stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby.
