I was wondering how you`re feeling
I thought I saw you kneeling And holding your gut last night It looked like you were praying But I heard someone saying You had been in an awful fight You get the worst of it everytime Lashing out with no reason or rhyme To lose all this rage, at so tender an age Little baby growing up in a rat cage Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out When does it finally come to blows I think that you`re forgetting The blood that you`ll be letting Has a price on it, no one knows it You may be suffering in your sleep You may be getting in too deep And you may not care for advice that I share If you want it then I`ll be there Soon you will learn how to swallow a tear So when you`re old you can cry in your beer Do you spit at the face staring back in the mirror Do you have any self respect instrumental break Soon you will learn how to swallow a tear So when you`re old you can cry in your beer Do you spit at the face staring back in the mirror Do you have any self respect Well what the hell did you expect Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out When does it finally come to blows I think that you`re forgetting The blood that you`ll be letting Has a price on it, no one knows it You may be suffering in your sleep You may be getting in too deep And you may not care for advice that I share If you want it then I`ll be there Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out instrumental break Are you ready for the fallout 기타 마일즈 주니가(Miles Zuniga), 베이스 토니 스캘조(Tony Scalzo), 드럼 조이 셔필드(Joey Shuffield)의 삼인방으로 짜여진 패스트볼은 '루츠 음악의 벨리' 텍사스에서 1994년에 마그네토(Magneto)란 이름으로 결성됐다. 그들의 탄탄한 음악 뿌리가 어디서 왔는지 알 수 있는 대목이다. 이후 클럽 활동을 하며 기본기를 다져가던 그들은 유명한 멕시코 밴드와 동명임을 알고 곧바로 마그네토USA로 개명하였다. 그러나 그 밴드명도 오래가지 못하고 데뷔 앨범 제작을 위해 할리우드 레코드 사와 계약 체결 당시 음반사 측의 요청으로 즉석에서 패스트볼로 그룹명을 바꿨다. 패스트볼이 발표한 1996년의 데뷔 앨범 MAKE YOUR MAMA PROUD는 블링크 182(Blink 182)의 프로듀서를 담당했던 제리 핀(Jerry Finn)이 가세하여 펑크와 뉴웨이브 사운드를 크로스 오버시킨 음악을 선사했으나 별 반응을 얻지 못했다. 언론에서도 '그들은 야구장에서 녹 아웃됐다', '그들의 첫 앨범은 스트라이크 아웃 당했다'는 등 밴드명과 빗대어 혹평을 했다. 그러나 데뷔작의 수록곡 Human torch, Back door 등은 그들의 음악에 '영양가'가 넘쳐있음을 확인시켜줬다. Are you ready for the fallout과 Altamont에서 보여지는 발군의 멜로디 감각 역시 그들이 녹녹치 않은 존재들임을 각인 시켰다. |

They made up their minds And they started packing
They left before the sun came up that day An exit to eternal summer slacking But where were they going Without ever knowing the way They drank up the wine And they got to talking They now had more important things to say And when the car broke down They started walking Where were they going without ever knowing the way 후렴 Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold And It's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll Never get hungry They'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere They won't make it home But they really don't care They wanted the highway They're happy there today, today The children woke up And they couldn't find 'em They Left before the sun came up that day They just drove off And left it all behind 'em But Where were they going Without ever knowing the way |

Once I had it all planned out
My dirty fingers moved about To make a mess of everything around me I don't claim to know my way I still run in circles every day Running around half blind Life can be unkind But it's better than it was I complain very little because It's better than it was I get to remembering We had alot more money then To make a mess of everything around us Now the money comes and goes a bit faster Than my confidence grows Everybody knows There ain't nothing new about money woes It's better than we ever could have Wished it to before It was bad a while ago Better than this I know It's better than it was |

I've been thinking about the good old days
Decorated in a candy glaze Each pretty ink blot panel Tells a different tale Each photo on the mantle Sweet memories that will never go stale I've been climbing up the walls again Living with a memory that might have been So pick me up on a weekday night We could get together and ride around in The black and white I've been thinking about the good old days My silly clothes and my silly ways Each drunken drugstore purchase Each chemical advance Seven days a weekend Every day the same old dizzy dance |

When I saw you on TV You were wearing a piece of me And it breaks my heart to look around And see the unimpressed Who can't believe the emperor is dressed Turn on my TV I want to check some action If you got no video Well then folks don't wanna know But with you up there to light the way I can wear a smile as I survey The faces in the dark Waiting for you to hit one out of the park We notice every tiny little detail Every word we read we'll take to heart But we never really understand Until we realize There are no lies When you see that look in their eyes What are we gonna use to fill the empty space When you see her in the crowd... Will you make your mama proud? She can turn around and see the faces Staring at her son Climbing his way up to #1 |

I think that you're forgetting The blood that you'll be letting Has a price on it, no one knows it You may be suffering in your sleep You may be getting in too deep And you may not care for advice that I share If you want it then I'll be there 2: Soon you will learn how to swallow a tear So when you're old you can cry in your beer Do you spit at the face staring back in the mirror? Do you have any self respect? 2 Well what the hell did you expect? 1 Are you ready for the fallout? Who you gonna call out? |

Are you ready for the fallout과 Altamont에서 보여지는 발군의 멜로디 감각 역시 그들이 녹녹치 않은 존재들임을 각인 시켰다. |

It doesn't kill you, it's not a one-way ticket to a lonely life
It might break your heart, but the physical risk is low You might feel so bad that you wanna die But if you died you would never know That it didn't kill you Soon you would've felt better Are you happy in heaven? Do you win all the games that they play up there? Do you have a new body? What kind of wings do you wear? I haven't felt so bad that I wanted to die But if I died I would never know Love doesn't kill you It's supposed to make you feel better You're never going to feel any better Once you're dead, you don't get any deader And you get no lovin' but you feel no pain Never have to lose again I just wish you could've been a bit bolder Now you're never gonna get any older And I really do miss you, but how would you know? Is that the only way to go? Love doesn't kill you But you can't run away from the bare inside You can't just quit right right here You've gotta let it ride We've all felt so bad that we wanted to die But if we died we would never know Love doesn't kill you It makes you feel better You're not ever going to feel any better Once you're dead you don't get any deader And you get no lovin', but you'll feel no pain Never have to lose again I just wish you could've been a bit bolder Now you're never going to get any older And I really do miss you But how would you know?

And how I'm sitting on one right now You can warn me about candles and whole things burning from the outside in But don't tell me about true love 'Cause I don't think you really know You need to pay the costs You need to feel the loss 'Cause love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free Talk to me about appearances I tell ya' lately they mean less and less Do your best to keep me occupied It's hard to concentrate, I must confess Don't you tell me about heartbreak 'Cause it ain't written in the stars You need to pay the costs You need to feel the loss 'Cause love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free Alright, you got me Don't you worry 'bout my baby Her eyes are open all the time I could never bare to see her Much less remove her from my mind I didn't talk to you about true love I didn't think you'd understand You need to pay the costs You need to feel the loss 'Cause love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free |

As I wake I see a morning star

They made up their minds And they started packing
They left before the sun came up that day An exit to eternal summer slacking But where were they going Without ever knowing the way They drank up the wine And they got to talking They now had more important things to say And when the car broke down They started walking Where were they going without ever knowing the way 후렴 Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold And It's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll Never get hungry They'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere They won't make it home But they really don't care They wanted the highway They're happy there today, today The children woke up And they couldn't find 'em They Left before the sun came up that day They just drove off And left it all behind 'em But Where were they going Without ever knowing the way |

I was wondering how you`re feeling
I thought I saw you kneeling And holding your gut last night It looked like you were praying But I heard someone saying You had been in an awful fight You get the worst of it everytime Lashing out with no reason or rhyme To lose all this rage, at so tender an age Little baby growing up in a rat cage Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out When does it finally come to blows I think that you`re forgetting The blood that you`ll be letting Has a price on it, no one knows it You may be suffering in your sleep You may be getting in too deep And you may not care for advice that I share If you want it then I`ll be there Soon you will learn how to swallow a tear So when you`re old you can cry in your beer Do you spit at the face staring back in the mirror Do you have any self respect instrumental break Soon you will learn how to swallow a tear So when you`re old you can cry in your beer Do you spit at the face staring back in the mirror Do you have any self respect Well what the hell did you expect Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out When does it finally come to blows I think that you`re forgetting The blood that you`ll be letting Has a price on it, no one knows it You may be suffering in your sleep You may be getting in too deep And you may not care for advice that I share If you want it then I`ll be there Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out Are you ready for the fallout Who you gonna call out instrumental break Are you ready for the fallout 기타 마일즈 주니가(Miles Zuniga), 베이스 토니 스캘조(Tony Scalzo), 드럼 조이 셔필드(Joey Shuffield)의 삼인방으로 짜여진 패스트볼은 '루츠 음악의 벨리' 텍사스에서 1994년에 마그네토(Magneto)란 이름으로 결성됐다. 그들의 탄탄한 음악 뿌리가 어디서 왔는지 알 수 있는 대목이다. 이후 클럽 활동을 하며 기본기를 다져가던 그들은 유명한 멕시코 밴드와 동명임을 알고 곧바로 마그네토USA로 개명하였다. 그러나 그 밴드명도 오래가지 못하고 데뷔 앨범 제작을 위해 할리우드 레코드 사와 계약 체결 당시 음반사 측의 요청으로 즉석에서 패스트볼로 그룹명을 바꿨다. 패스트볼이 발표한 1996년의 데뷔 앨범 MAKE YOUR MAMA PROUD는 블링크 182(Blink 182)의 프로듀서를 담당했던 제리 핀(Jerry Finn)이 가세하여 펑크와 뉴웨이브 사운드를 크로스 오버시킨 음악을 선사했으나 별 반응을 얻지 못했다. 언론에서도 '그들은 야구장에서 녹 아웃됐다', '그들의 첫 앨범은 스트라이크 아웃 당했다'는 등 밴드명과 빗대어 혹평을 했다. 그러나 데뷔작의 수록곡 Human torch, Back door 등은 그들의 음악에 '영양가'가 넘쳐있음을 확인시켜줬다. Are you ready for the fallout과 Altamont에서 보여지는 발군의 멜로디 감각 역시 그들이 녹녹치 않은 존재들임을 각인 시켰다. |

And how I'm sitting on one right now You can warn me about candles and whole things burning from the outside in But don't tell me about true love 'Cause I don't think you really know You need to pay the costs You need to feel the loss 'Cause love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free Talk to me about appearances I tell ya' lately they mean less and less Do your best to keep me occupied It's hard to concentrate, I must confess Don't you tell me about heartbreak 'Cause it ain't written in the stars You need to pay the costs You need to feel the loss 'Cause love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free Alright, you got me Don't you worry 'bout my baby Her eyes are open all the time I could never bare to see her Much less remove her from my mind I didn't talk to you about true love I didn't think you'd understand You need to pay the costs You need to feel the loss 'Cause love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free Love is expensive and free |

I can still recall a time you were not so far behind
You were only 15 and you still had piece of mind Now you're pushing 31, duty call you come and run When will this be over When, when will you be gone (Chorus 1) I'll be your man child to be tough Once is never quite enough Giving twenty minutes in between If you know what I mean You gotta give if you wanna get Never let 'em see you sweat You may cry and you may bleed But only if the punch is from me (Chorus 2) Why do you back down in the face of a fist fight? I kick myself for caring about you You may one day go the distance You might come around If you be yourself, well you can make your mama proud When you get the energy You can place a call to me My number's in the phone book And I'm not that hard to find I still live in the same old place I still have the same old face I can give you more than twenty minutes of my time (Chorus 1) (Chorus 2) |

Sometimes I feel
Like I am drunk behind the wheel The wheel of possibility However it may roll Give it a spin See if you can somehow factor in You know there’s always more than one way To say exactly what you mean to say Chorus: Was I out of my head? Was I out of my mind? How could I have ever been so blind? I was waiting for an indication It was hard to find Don’t matter what I say only what I do I never mean to do bad things to you So quiet but I finally woke up If you’re sad then it’s time you spoke up too Chorus Repeat Chorus |

First Verse:
She, she belongs to me But she doesn't know it She comes walking down the street She don't notice me Chorus: And she comes round She know how to turn me inside out Inside out, upside down She's got the bomb I'm twisted metal tongue When I get around you I stutter incomplete I can't keep a beat Chorus She comes round my door She gets me everytime She doesn't even notice me When she goes walking by Repeat First Verse Chorus Repeat Chorus |

They made up their minds And they started packing
They left before the sun came up that day An exit to eternal summer slacking But where were they going Without ever knowing the way They drank up the wine And they got to talking They now had more important things to say And when the car broke down They started walking Where were they going without ever knowing the way 후렴 Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold And It's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll Never get hungry They'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere They won't make it home But they really don't care They wanted the highway They're happy there today, today The children woke up And they couldn't find 'em They Left before the sun came up that day They just drove off And left it all behind 'em But Where were they going Without ever knowing the way |

She will bring a little box of moonlight To light my way on such a very dark night Dreams so real they grow wild on the vine Until sundown When she comes, she comes just like a daydream And the sun surrenders to the evening I've waited all day long to be with you girl We'll burn like falling stars tonight And hide like vampires from the daylight Until sundown Dreams so real they grow wild on the vine We'll burn like falling stars tonight And hide like vampires from the daylight Our world comes alive at night And like the stars, they shine so bright As long as you are mine As long as you are mine As long as you are mine |

Can you make it easier for me
to understand How you're holding my heart in your trembling hands Eyes that rise to meet me half way up among the stars You may be from Venus but I'm definitely not from Mars You're An Ocean You're An Ocean Settle Down Settle Down What's the commotion I'm an island but you're an ocean It's a stormy sea of love and emotion You've got me suspended motionless in time Make the warm winds circle round my head just like you do If I could do it I'd be doing it to you I believe I'd buy whatever you would sell to me Nothing in my life ever came with a guarantee You're An Ocean You're An Ocean Settle Down Settle Down What's the commotion I'm an island but you're an ocean It's a stormy sea of love and emotion You've got me suspended motionless in time I believe I'd buy whatever you would sell to me Nothing in my life ever came with a guarantee You're An Ocean You're An Ocean Settle Down Settle Down What's the commotion I'm an island but you're an ocean It's a stormy sea of love and emotion You've got me suspended motionless You've got me suspended motionless You've got me suspended motionless in time |

Airstream, big chrome airstream
Leave the world behind me They won't find me in my airstream Free, I don't want to be stuck in the city With the cars and people downtown Waiting in a line Wishing I was far away Where no one knows my name Ocean, big blue ocean Rolling like a daydream Down the highway in my airstream Free, I don't want to be stuck in the city With the cars and people downtown Waiting in a line Wishing I was far away Where no one knows my name Or my address, it's a place I've never been When it gets too familiar I'll be gone Free, I don't want to be stuck in the city With the cars and people downtown Waiting in a line Wishing I was far away Where no one knows my name Or my address, it's a place I've never been When it gets too familiar I'll be gone When it gets too familiar I'll be gone When it gets too familiar I'll be gone |

Got nowhere to stay
Got nowhere to go Got no one to blame for lettin' myself get so low It's right on the tip of my tongue What's the word I'm thinkin' of It's right in the middle of good and bad So how can it be love My brain is too soft My money's no good I tend to get lost just walkin' in the neighborhood It's right on the tip of my tongue What's the word I'm thinkin' of Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say It's nothing I can't control But in matters of the heart and soul I must admit that I just don't know I don't know what to say I don't know what to do I don't know what possessed me To get together with a girl like you You're right on the tip of my tongue Are you the girl I'm thinkin' of Right in the middle of hate and love An iron fist in a velvet glove Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say Gotta step back And give each other room to grow Listen to your heart It'll tell you where to go I must admit that I just don't know Admit that I just don't know Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say It's nothing I can't control But in matters of the heart and soul Sometimes I feel like I'm drifting away And that's all I can say Gotta step back And give each other room to grow Listen to your heart It'll tell you where to go I must admit that I just don't know Admit that I just don't know Admit that I just don't know |

Long before I ever saw your face
I got to know you in a dream But things aren't always what they seem You learn along the way I just can't stop myself from breaking down It's just no good unless you come around I turn into a monster all my friends agree So goodnight, I'm goin' to bed I'm fallin' upstairs to meet you I wake up with memories in my head I'm someone else instead Fallin' upstairs to you You came to me from some secret place You're beautiful and strange to me Just like an antique melody Too sad for me to play I hope you'll wait for me behind closed eyes I know I'll search for you all through the night Till when the dawn breaks in and throws it's light around the room Goodnight, I'm going to bed I'm fallin' upstairs to meet you Ooh, I wake up with memories in my head I'm somewhere else instead Falling upstairs to you, fallin' upstairs to you |

Too bad, I don't get my own way
Want champagne, all they got is Cabernet and I'm wastin' all my time I feel good, but there's a tear in my eye Rain fallin' from a cloudless sky, I get high, forget about it all Red lights flashin' behind my cracked up rear-view mirror Thunder crashin' down, and screamin' in my ear I guess, I drew a bad card somewhere down the line And I never win my money all back, I'm only here for a limited time Probably see me hangin' around by the railroad tracks, I get high We used to have a house down by the shore Every night, we'd take a walk to the liquor store And we'd get wasted all the time, I hit the city, when I lost ya, girl Not so pretty, it's a different world, I get high, forget about it all Red lights flashin' behind my cracked up rear-view mirror Thunder crashin' down and screamin' in my ear I guess, I drew a bad card somewhere down the line And I never win my money all back, I'm only here for a limited time And then I got a bag to pack I'm goin' down, I'm goin' down I'm goin' down, I'm goin' down Too bad, I don't get my own way Maybe you and me can try to get together some day Because I'm wastin' all my time I feel good, but there's a tear in my eye Rain fallin' from a cloudless sky, I get high, forget about it all I get high, forget about it all I get high, forget about it all |

Rip out the trees and plant your flag
Now I know just where you stand Nature means nothing to you Something that you can't control And we make ourselves miserable Trying to fill the hole It's sad that our misunderstanding Has turned into a war I don't know you anymore How was I supposed to know I was steppin' on your toes The momentum builds to a fever pitch Talkin' but I just can't hear Watchin' our problems multiply Wishin' they would disappear It's sad that our misunderstanding Has turned into a war I don't know you anymore, anymore And our love got lost in the translation And when I see you out You're a stranger to me now You're a stranger to me now I, I wish I could talk to you I wish I could make you see How much I care How much you mean to me That our misunderstanding Has turned into a war I don't know you anymore, anymore And our love got lost in the translation And when I see you out You're a stranger to me now You're a stranger to me now |

I went walking through the red light
On the dark night in the winter Pretty girls in the window Pretty girls, staring back at me I went walking 'cross the St. Charles To the Argyle downtown Met my friends in the back there Know we always have a really good time And I feel so alive and I feel so free Always listening to our favorite songs They play them all night long They play them all night long I woke up with a girly Way too early, oh my head I went walkin' to the newsstand All the suits staring back at me Whatchu lookin' at? I went walking down Main Street Down to South Beach, oh I crawled I went looking for the bee sting And I feel so alive and I feel so free Always listening to our favorite songs They play them all night long They play them all night long <i>[?]</i> At the end of the world At the end of the world At the end of the world At the end of the world Will I see you again? Will I see you again? At the end of the world Take me home all the way, yeah Right, that's absolutely right |

Bought a copy of "Revolver" and some Gang of Four Singles going steady Billie Holliday They had it all on vinyl And I was blown away Then I walked around the corner to my favorite bar I do a lot more walkin' since I wrecked my car They all know my name here I feel right at home I just might spend the night here Since I know you're not alone And then they play that song I love And I feel like I just can't lose I feel like I should call you up But I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right Well I wrote you a letter but I tore it up Then I wrote another letter and I tore it up Stare up at the ball game On the TV screen If you care to find me You'll know where I'll be And then they play that song I love And I feel like I just can't lose I feel like I should call you up But I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right I'm down I'm down I'm down I'm down And then they play that song I love And I feel like I just can't lose I feel like I should call you up But I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right And then they play that song I hate And I feel like I just can't win I'm breakin' down The room begins to spin I'll stay here all night 'Till I get it right |
