[Chorus] (no drums)
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again (drums in)
I would understand, I would understand
[Verse]
The angry boy, a bit too insane, Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first to fight, you're way too loud
You're the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well, everyone I know has got a reason
To say, "Put the past away"
[Chorus]
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand
[Verse]
Well he's on the table and he's gone to code, And I do not think anyone knows
What they are doing here
And your friends have left you, you've been dismissed
I never thought it would come to this, And I, I want you to know
Everyone's got to face down the demons
Maybe today, you could put the past away
[Chorus]
[Bridge]

Can you put the past away?
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand (x4)

[verse]
Well, I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind
I left my body lying somewhere in the sands of time
But I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
I feel there's nothing I can do, yeah
[break]
[verse]
I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
After all I knew, it had to be something to do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end
[Chorus]
If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there and holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might Kryptonite
[break]
[verse]
You called me strong, you called me weak But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back on solid ground
[Chorus]
[Guitar Solo]
[Broken down Chorus (beat like verse 1)]
If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman?

Whoa, whoa, whoa
A (mod to B)
[verse]
I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case, time and again
I thought about it
You treat me like I'm a princess
I'm not used to liking that
You ask how my day was
[Chorus]
You've already won me over, In spite of me
And don't be alarmed if I fall, Head over feet
And don't be surprised if I love you, For all that you are
I couldn't help it, It's all your fault
[verse]
Your love is thick, And it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver, Than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service
[Chorus]
You've already won me over, In spite of me
And don't be alarmed if I fall, Head over feet
And don't be surprised if I love you, For all that you are
I couldn't help it, It's all your fault
[verse]
You are the bearer, Of unconditional things
You held your breath, And the door for me
Thanks for your patience
[Harmonica Chorus]
[verse]
You're the best listener, That I've ever met
You're my best friend, Best friend with benefits
What took me so long
I've never felt this healthy before
I've never wanted something rational
I am aware now, oh, I am aware now
[Chorus]
You've already won me over, In spite of me
And don't be alarmed if I fall, Head over feet
And don't be surprised if I love you, For all that you are
I couldn't help it, It's all your fault
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
On a cobweb afternoon In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess I was lost in the pages
Of a book full of death, Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good, we'll lay to rest, Anywhere we want to go
[Chorus]
In your house, I long to be
Room by room, patiently
I'll wait for you there Like a stone
I'll wait for you there Alone
[Intro]
[Verse 2]
And on my deathbed I will pray, To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan to anyone, Who will take me to heaven
To a place I recall, I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised, The wine was bled And there you led me on
[Chorus]
++ Alone, Alone,
[Solo]
[Bridge] NO DRUMS
And on I read, Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret, Of all the things I've done
(DRUMS ENTER) For all that I've blessed, And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death, I will wander on
[Chorus]
++ Alone, Alone,

[Verse]
It's alright to tell me what you think about me
I won't try to argue or hold it against you
I know that you're leaving, you must have your reasons
The season is calling, your pictures are falling down
[Intro]
[Verse]
The steps that I retrace, the sad look on your face
The timing and structure, did you hear he fucked her?
A day late, a buck short, I'm writing the report
On losing and failing, when I move, I'm flailing now
[Chorus]
And it's happened once again, I'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands, and sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone, and I've been here for too long
To face this on my own, well, I guess this is growing up
Well, I guess this is growing up
[Verse]
And maybe I'll see you at a movie sneak preview
You'll show up and walk by on the arm of that guy
And I'll smile and you'll wave, we'll pretend it's okay
The charade, it won't last, when he's gone, I won't come back
[Chorus]

Debbie just hit the wall, she never had it all
One Prozac a day, husband's a CPA
Her dreams went out the door when she turned twenty-four
Only been with one man, what happened to her plan?
[Prechorus]
She was gonna be an actress, she was gonna be a star
She was gonna shake her ass on the hood of Whitesnake's car
Her yellow SUV is now the enemy
Looks at her average life and nothin' has been alright
[Chorus]
Since Bruce Springsteen, Madonna Way before Nirvana
There was U2 and Blondie And music still on MTV
Her two kids in high school They tell her that she's uncool
'Cause she's still preoccupied With 19, 19 1985

She's seen all the classics, she knows every line
Breakfast Club, Pretty In Pink, even St. Elmo's Fire
She rocked out to Wham, not a big Limp Bizkit fan
Thought she'd get a hand on a member of Duran Duran
[Prechorus]
Where's the mini-skirt made of snakeskin?
And who's the other guy that's singin' in Van Halen?
When did reality become TV?

[Verse 1] (no drums
I got my first real six-string, Bought it at the five and dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled, Was the summer of '69
[Verse 2] drums enter
Me and some guys from school, Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married, I should've known we'd never get far
[Chorus]
Oh, when I look back now, That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice, Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life
[PostChorus]
[Verse 3]
Ain't no use in complainin’, When you got a job to do
I spent my evenings down at the drive-in, And that's when I met you, yeah!
[Chorus 2]
Standin' on your mama's porch, You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh, and when you held my hand, I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
[PostChorus]
Oh, yeah
Back in the summer of '69, oh
[Bridge]
Man, we were killin' time, We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothing can last forever, Forever, no
[Verse 4]
And now the times are changin’, Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string, I think about you, wonder what went wrong
[Chorus 3]
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that it'd last forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Used to spend my nights out in a barroom
Liquor was the only love I've known
But you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom
And brought me back from being too far gone
[Chorus]
You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time
[Verse 2]
I've looked for love in all the same old places
Found the bottom of a bottle's always dry
But when you poured out your heart I didn't waste it
'Cause there's nothing like your love to get me high
[Chorus]
You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time

I was down at the New Amsterdam, Staring at this yellow-haired girl
Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation, With a black-haired flamenco dancer
You know she dances while his father plays guitar, She's suddenly beautiful
And we all want something beautiful, Man, I wish I was beautiful
[Verse 2] Drums Enter
So come dance the silence down through the morning
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, yeah, Uh huh, yeah
Cut up, Maria, Show me some of them Spanish dances
Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones,
Believe in me, Help me believe in anything
'Cause I wanna be someone who believes, Yeah
[Chorus]
Mr. Jones and me, Tell each other fairy tales
And we stare at the beautiful women, She's looking at you Ah, no, no, she's looking at me
Smilin' in the bright lights Coming through in stereo
When everybody loves you You can never be lonely
[Verse 3]
Well, I'm gon' paint my picture Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
Yeah, well, you know gray is my favorite color I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picasso, I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
[Chorus]
Mr. Jones and me Looked into the future
we stare at the beautiful women, She’s looking at you, I don't think so, She’s lookin at me
Standing in the spotlight, I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely
[Bridge] Half Time
I will never be lonely, Said I'm never gonna be lonely
I wanna be a lion, Yeah, everybody wanna pass as cats
We all wanna be big, big stars, Yeah, but we got different reasons for that
Believe in me,'Cause I don't believe in anything
And I wanna be someone to believe, to believe, to believe, Yeah
[Chorus]
Mr. Jones and me, Stumbling through the barrio
We stare at the beautiful women, She's perfect for you, there's got to be somebody for me
I wanna be Bob Dylan, Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
When everybody loves you, ah son, That's just about as funky as you can be
Mr. Jones and me, Staring at the video
When I look at the television, I want to see me, Staring right back at me
We all wanna be big stars, But we don't know why, and we don't know how
But when everybody loves me, I'm wanna be just about as happy as I can be
Mr. Jones and me, We're gonna be big stars

Hook me up a new revolution,'Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing and watched the last one die

Now I'm looking to the sky to save me, Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication, Looking cause I'm tired of lying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly high

I think I'm done nursing the patience, It can wait one night
I'd give it all away if you give me one last try
We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life
Run and tell the angels that everything's alright

Now I'm looking to the sky to save me

If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when she sang

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up, I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid? Or am I just stoned?

He takes off her dress now, Let me go

Her placenta falls to the floor
The angel opens her eyes, The confusion sets in,
Before the doctor can even close the door

Her intentions fall to the floor
The angel closes her eyes
The confusion that was hers
Belongs now, to the baby down the hall

Oh, now feel it coming back again
Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
Forces pulling from the center of the Earth again
I can feel it

This moment she's been waiting for
The angel opens her eyes
Pale blue colored iris
Presents the circle, Puts the glory out to hide, hide

People say I got a drinkin' problem, But I got no problem drinkin' at all

They keep on talkin’, Drawing conclusions
They call a problem, I call a solution

Alright, already, we'll all float on (I'm told don't function and listen everyday)
Alright, already, we'll all float on (The worlds' still going strong)
Okay, don't worry, we'll all float on (I lose hair)

Alright, already, we'll all float on (Alright!) (float on)
Now don't you worry, we'll all float on (Alright!)

Psychic spies from China try to steal your mind's elation
And little girls from Sweden dream of silver-screen quotation
And if you want these kind of dreams, it's Californication
It's the edge of the world and all of Western civilization
The sun may rise in the East, at least it settled in a final location
It's understood that Hollywood sells Californication
[Prechorus]
Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin: is this your chin or is that war you're waging?
First born unicorn. … Hardcore soft porn

Marry me, girl, be my fairy to the world, be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard, it's Californication
Space may be the final frontier but it's made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain, can you hear the spheres singing songs off Station to Station?
And Alderaan's not far away, it's Californication
[Prechorus]
Born and raised by those who praise control of population
Well, everybody's been there, and I don't mean no vacation
First born unicorn …… Hardcore soft porn

Come to decide that the things that I tried, Were in my life just to get high on
When I sit alone, Come get a little known, But I need more than myself this time
Step from the road to the sea to the sky, And I do believe that we rely on
When I lay it on, Come get to play it on, All my life to sacrifice
[Chorus]
Hey oh, Listen what I say, oh
I got your hey oh, Now listen what I say, oh

When will I know that I really can't go, To the well once more time to decide on?
When it's killing me, When will I really see, All that I need to look inside
Come to believe that I better not leave, Before I get my chance to ride
When it's killing me, What do I really need, All that I need to look inside

Running through the field where all my tracks will be concealed, there's nowhere to go

When to descend to amend for a friend, All the channels that have broken down
Now you bring it up, I'm gonna ring it up, Just to hear you sing it out

When I lay it on, Come get to play it on, All my life to sacrifice

On a live wire right up off the street, You and I should meet

Junebug skipping like a stone, With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess, Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

Double-cross the vacant and the bored, They're not sure just what we have in store
Morphine city slipping dues down to see

And poured cement, lamented and assured, To the lights and towns below

Beneath the sound of hope

When you're on a holiday You can't find the words to say
All the things that come to you And I wanna feel it too
[Chorus]
On an island in the sun We'll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine I can't control my brain
[Intro]
Hip hip (x2)
Hip hip
[Verse 2]
When you're on a golden sea You don't need no memory
Just a place to call your own As we drift into the zone
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore
[Intro]
Hip hip (x2)
[Guitar Solo Verse]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore
[Outro]
Hip hip (x8)
[Intro]
Oh, yeah, Alright
[Verse]
Somebody's Heine’ Is crowdin' my icebox
Somebody's cold one Is givin' me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes
Oh, yeah, Alright
Feels good, Inside
[Verse]
Flip on the telly, Wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling, Behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so, Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so, My love is a life taker
[Verse]
I can't confront you, I never could do
That which might hurt you, To try and be cool
When I say
This way is a waterslide away from me That takes her further every day
So be cool
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Dear daddy, I write you, In spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up, found Jesus, Things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Steven's awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather, The son is drowning in the flood
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[solo]
[Chorus]

[verse 1]
I'm gonna fight 'em all, A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off, Taking their time right behind my back
[Prechorus] SD enter
And I'm talking to myself at night, Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind, Behind a cigarette
[Chorus]
And the message coming from my eyes
Says, "Leave it alone”
[bass intro] —-> BD enter
[verse 3]
Don't wanna hear about it, Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it, From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell
[Prechorus] SD enter
And if I catch it coming back my way, I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear, But that's what I'll do
[Chorus]
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says, "Find a home"

[verse4]
I'm going to Wichita, Far from this opera forevermore
I'm gonna work the straw, Make the sweat drip out of every pore
[Prechorus] SD enter
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, Right before the Lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me, And I will sing no more
[Chorus]
And the stains coming from my blood,
Tell me, "Go back home"

I saw werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of SoHo in the rain
He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fooks
For to get a big dish of beef chow mein
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
Ah-hoo
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
Ah-hoo
You hear him howling around your kitchen door
You better not let him in
Little old lady got mutilated late last night
Werewolves of London again
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
Ah-hoo
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
Ah-hoo, huh
He's the hairy handed gent who ran amok in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
You better stay away from him, he'll rip your lungs out Jim
Huh, I'd like to meet his tailor
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
Ah-hoo
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
Ah-hoo
Well, I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
Doin' the werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney Jr. walking with the Queen, uh
Doin' the werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinkin' a piña colada at Trader Vic's
His hair was perfect
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
Hey draw blood
Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
