Well, fool me once, said shame on you
I've got a thing to say or two
I've been diggin' in the dirt for days I've made
A humble home for bones to lay
So, if you've got something to say
Why don't you take it to the grave
Well listen closely, but mostly don't speak
I've toiled and I've tumbled
Told tales to the meek
Well I've crumbled and I've crawled
On the dark end of the street
and I swore a solemn oath to both the devils and the saints
So if you've got something to say
Why don't you say it with some grace?
Well, clean out your wounds and bandage what bleeds
and ramble and gamble and scramble if you please
they say the road to hell is paved with plenty of these
but then they get on their knees and go pray to a priest
So, if you've got something to say
I guess someone is always listening
Well forget what they told ya
Come over, come over
Red rover, red rover
I've got something to show ya
and if you look closely at me
I think you might see just what I mean
Well the loosest of lips have been known to sink ships
A snake with two faces is a back biting bitch
So casually, tongues do run free
but the squeaky wheel is gonna get the grease
So if you've got something to say
Why don't you say it to my face?

So quick she says, says, "I'm runnin' out of breath
so soothe me"
So quick she takes off her dress
I missed the best, missed the rest
My appetite consumed me
Must've came and then left
But I don't mind playin' it off or losing
I don't mind playin' at all
But then sometimes time can be so amusing
I don't mind playing at all
But don't you come here
unless it's quite clear:
You ditched you daughter when you quit common sense
You count your candles, count your coins, you list your lies
You're losing
And don't repent
But I don't mind playin' it off or losing
I don't mind playin' at all
But then sometimes time can be so amusing
I don't mind playing at all
Meet me somewhere - I don't mind
Raise your hell there - guard your spine
Deeds are truths, dear - you can't hide
Speak your words clear
Bleed me dry
Bleed me dry

You made a plea for your release and
so you told them everything about me
a little knowledge is a death indeed
but don't be daft - you're just a thief like me
Don't want to hear about
how you made your hasty retreat
But, oh, I want to be your king
Oh, come get the best of me
And so you woke up next to me and
You told your lover everything about it
You said you can't quite be my queen yet
but could a rose of another color smell as sweet?
And while you're down there, you'll be the death of me
But, oh, I want to be your king
Oh, come get the best of me
And so you showed up nice and clean
Just like the rain washed out your needs
We play this game of wolves and sheep
Just pull the wool down, I don't need to see
So speak your words clear
Cuz all this talk is cheap
You'll sleep out in the stars child
You'll be so still, my sweet
Or, did you just disappear dear?
Well, we'll just wait and see
But, oh, I want to be your king
Oh, come get the best of me

They would say I'm an angry man
I was a lonesome man
But, I'm just a hungry man
Look at me - the bewildered one
I am a soviet
I am the powerless
Here I am - proletariat
I'm not a tortured man
I am the everyman
Made my decision and my deed is done
I am the bastard son
I'll kill everyone
Never better over there
Never better over here
Never better anywhere
Made my decision and I'm through
It's all over now for me
Guess it's all over for you
Some would say he was an heroic man
But he was a privileged man
He was an aristocrat
Unfinished life. Well, it's over now
I am the chosen one
We bled for everyone
Never better...
So I shot him down
And they shot me down
And you shot me down
You shot me down

And from the moment I first whimpered
Until the day I met my fate
I have waited for your whisper
And I have grieved over my grave
And in the silence of my slumber
Until the morning when I wake
You have come and called my number
You have come and named my name
But in the spring my heart was soaring
You made it freeze when day gave way
You looked at me, said "don't be frightened
For this could end no other way"
For, in the throws, we're born to suffer
Of flesh and bones we'll stake no claim
And I will know no other lover
I will moan no other name

I get by, most the time
I get high, most the time
most the time
most the time
A good lie, so refined
good bye - to ties that bind
most the time
most the time you keep on waiting up
Go to sleep
and you'll dream
of ghosts that weep
of ghosts that bleed
of ghosts that need
you keep on waiting up
I'm not dead, but I'm still crawling
the walls were made for falling down
I'm not mad, but I'm still calling the man who made me shut my mouth
