Inquisitor

Again I reach for my hammer
To nail Jesus to the cross
I found myself to be Judas
Without a reason or a cause
Yeah, I dare to mock the Holy See
Just don't let the inquisitor touch me
Again I've burnt my tongue
Just to prove myself right
I found myself to be Judas
Uuuh, out of spite
Yeah, I dare to mock the Holy See
Just don't let the inquisitor touch me
I am a part of the Skeptic Century
This joke has ended on the Hill of Calvary
Life in the hive is not the life for me
I swear by my name I will never bend the knee

Rollin' in the Mud
03:52
|

The world is so still,
There's nothing going on at all
You can't do anything for me
My back's against the wall
Been looking across Michigan
Searching through Tennessee
And I found nothing
That would work out for me
Not for me!
I'm rollin' in the mud
Rollin' in the mud
Rollin' in the mud
Thunder rollin' over Greenwich
I'm standing in the eye of the storm
Cold winters and strongest winds
Keep my memories warm
Rain fallin' so hard
Gonna wash all this bad blood
Off the streets of the world
And set the stage for the flood
Down in the flood!
I'm rollin' in the mud
Rollin' in the mud
Rollin' in the mud
Some of these ideas
Can drive a man insane
Some of them rock the boat,
But sometimes its all in vain
These kind of toughts
Can summon the god
You just have to say your prayers
And take the odds
Take the odds!
I'm rollin' in the mud
Rollin' in the mud
Rollin' in the mud

Get Blood Out of Stone
04:10
|

Forget about your fantasy
You've let me grow cold
These stories that you're telling me
Are gettin pretty old
You can't put the same feelings
Back in my bones
You've built a house of cards
Not expecting to see them fall
Can't get blood out of a stone
You do nothing but manipulate
Without a doubt
Please do not hesitate
To think it all out
You can't put the same feelings
Back in my bones
You've built a house of cards
Not expecting to see them fall
Can't get blood out of stone
Now you're on your own
I guess you reap what you've sown
You have to do it alone
Throw your self a bone
Get blood out of stone

Gonna end up like Frankie Lee
Because I've lived like Hank
Someone better learn how to
Tame that tiger in my tank
I went to see the levee this morning
I was up to my knees in mud
Everything I've ever loved
I've lost in this flood
I was feeling so low
When they were pouring poison in my ear
The label on the bottle read: Self-confidence
I swear it tasted just like beer
My woman, she just sat there
Too upset to cry
The only thing she said to me was:
''Never say die''
It goes on and on and on
With a mind of its own
But I can feel the storm
Coming; in the lines of your palm
You don't need my blessings
To open up my soul
Or to chain me down
And make me walk on burning coals
For your sweet love
As green as clover
They've sent many poor souls
To smell their way to Dover

Lay It Out on Me
03:51
|
|||
You ain't affraid to burst into tears
Publish your lovers or fall on your ass
You can lie down on the hostile pavements
Just as you can lie down in a field of grass
Lay it out on me!
You never had to look to far
To find the seven wonders of the world
You could jump into the dirtiest puddle
And find the worlds prettiest pearls
Lay it out on me!
Your rawdiness wouldn't let me sleep
My green eyes are ready to weep
There really is no mistery
You always lay it all out on me
I feel like I'm three sheets to the wind
Like in some watered down acid dream
That is to weak to hold me in
You always lay it all out on me

Sugarpill Kiss
02:43
|

This black haired girl with freckles
My heart is whistling like a kettle
I'd take her somewhere less hazy
But my legs are so lazy
I'll just give her a sugarpill kiss
She can't get enough of these
They are sweeter than candy cane
But they can't really cure my pain
This brown haired girl was such a bore
Always throwing me out of her back door
Last time I've seen her her hair was black
Now she's telling me she wants me back
I'll just give her a sugarpill kiss
She can't get enough of these
They are sweeter than candy cane
But they can't really cure my pain
This red haired girl with freckles
Her heart is whistling like a kettle
The love she got for me is real
And I don't need those sugarpills
Yeah, I don't need no sugarpill kiss
I think I've head enough of this
I'm gettin too old for candy cane
I need something to cure my pain
Just give me something to cure my pain

Auditors of Reality
03:17

The sixth horn is crowing
The seventh messenger is frowing
The same old winds are blowing
But I can't see where this ship is going
Waiting for the smoke to clear
To witness his true fears
The kings heart quivers
As the face of the betrayer appears

Shout at the Mountains
03:48
|

When you shout at the mountains
The mountains will shout right back at you
But no one will ever tell you
About the joker in the pack
Jokers and thieves can't fool the Lord
But you know that I can
As sure as the night is bright
And day is black
The one that you neglect could be
The joker in the pack
Jokers and thieves can't fool the Lord
But you know that I can

Coccinellidae

I can drink as much liquor as anybody can
But I can't stay cool when I see you walking with your man
Skyline is on fire, cigarette-ash-colored skies
I'm just a romantic fool, I don't take no ones advice
I got a buzzard on my shoulder and a chicken up my sleeve
Countryside can't hold me, I guess I'm bound to leave
If I fall for the soot they say I will never return
But sweet smell of elderberries follows me wherever i turn
There's a fork in the road and it bothers me so
There's a sign on the door that says please don't go
My broom needs dusting, my baby needs a pill
If she want's me to stay, well, you bet I will
