AMNESIA MOON
We’d better run
We’d better run
We’d better run
Take all your clothes
Grab your money from the bank
It’s all gone wrong
Like a Sonic Defense song
Amnesia Moon again
Lonely desperate friends
Go back and build again
Or where will it end?
Will we break through?
Happy in the end?
I wanna drive
Be with me tonight
We’d better run
We’d better run
We’d better run
So I got unstuck
I just really wanna help you
And history is a ghost
But anger is an energy
Amnesia Moon again
Lonely desperate friends
Go back and build again
Or where will it end?
Will we break through?
Happy in the end?
I promise you
We’ll be together again
(Anger is an energy line inspired by/stolen from PIL – Rise)

LOU
I don’t see Lou
We don’t talk much anymore
Since they fired his funky ass
And they kicked him out the door
And as I’m working here
9-5 long boring days
I look back and I remember
All his peculiar ways
And for everything that went wrong
I’ve got a song to play
I’ve got something to say
Said I’M SORRY
You were a disposable guy
For reasons you can’t deny
You’re dreamy head
Always up in the sky
Always in trouble with HR
Dreams of being a YouTube star
Smashing up
The boss’s favourite car
And for everything that went wrong
I’ve got a song to play
I’ve got something to say
Said I’M SORRY
Your Russian-Korean bride
She took you for a ride
Always left you
sexually unsatisfied
Pot-luck pickle juice
lettin’ those gerbils loose
At the Christmas party
You ruined my chances with Sue
A disposable guy
For reasons you can’t deny
Your dreamy head
Always up in the sky
Somehow through the mess
You blamed all the rest
Ignoring your example has been the key
To my success
My success!

Hard To Love You

HARD TO LOVE YOU
You make it hard to love you
When we’re lyin’ there in bed
And you’re trying to make your point
We should be making love instead
And the songs keep on comin’
But the chords are just the same
You keep on trying to find your fame
And losing your range
You make it hard to love you
The kids have got me worried
They don’t even know your face
Skippin’ around from town to town
Scrappin’ all over the place
You make it hard to love you
It was easy years ago
Time is tearing us apart
Is it me? Or is it your art?
You make it hard to love you

The Bottle

The BOTTLE
The singer wasn’t the song
Even though they all sang along
He goes his words
From a book that he stole
And there’s images blaring
From a screen to his groin
It’s not love but it’ll do
For some time
Some take the bottle
Some take pills
Some take what they shouldn’t
But they know that they will
And if you can forgive
Some things that I’ve done
I wouldn’t wait
But I hope someday it could come
And there’s something that draws me
To the things that I shouldn’t have
Maybe some kinda lesson
I didn’t get from my mom and dad
I took the fantasy
I took the dreams
Some things that look beautiful
Aren’t exactly what they seem
And I’ll be changing
But it won’t be with you
I know it’s hard
But I did what I had to
Some take the bottle
Some take pills
Some take what they shouldn’t
But they know that they will
They know that they will

IMAGINARY LOVE
There you go
There you go again
All excited
Talking to your friends
Saying she looks so pretty
And she seems so smart
Always going on
About some fancy art
There you go
There you go again
All excited
Talking to your friends
Summer slipping away
Turning into fall
Sometimes you think
That you could love them all
Imaginary love
