Get It
I turn on the and what do I see A whole lotta people cryin' "Don't me" They point crooked little fingers ar everybody else Spend all their time feelin' sorry for Victim of this, of that momma's too thin; your daddy's too fat Get it Get it All this and cryin' and pitchin' a fit Get it, get over it You say you haven't been the same since you had your little But you might feel better if I gave you some The more I think about it, Old Billy was kill all the lawyers, kill 'em tonight You want to work, you want to live like a king But the big, bad world owe you a thing Get it Get it If you don't want to play, then you might as split Get over it, Get it like going to confession every time I hear you speak You're makin' the most of your streak Some it sick, but I call it weak You drag it around like a and chain You wallow in the guilt; you wallow in the You wave it like a flag, you it like a crown Got your mind in the gutter, bringin' everybody Complain about the and blame it on the past I'd like to your inner child and kick its little ass Get it Get it All this bitchin' and moanin' and a fit Get over it, get it Get it Get it It's gotta stop sometime, so why you quit Get over it, get it

The Girl Yesterday
It reall sad the way they said good-bye Or maybe it just hurt so bad she cry He packed his things, out the door and drove away And she the girl from yesterday He a plane across the sea To some land She stayed at home and to understand How someone who had so close could be so far away And she became the girl from She doesn't know what's She doesn't know wrong She only knows the pain that from waiting for so long And she count the teardrops That she's cried he's away Because she deep in her heart he'll be back someday The light's on in the she's waiting by the phone to a memory that's never coming home She dreams of his returning and the things he might say But she'll always be the girl from Yeh, she'll always be the girl yesterday
To Be Still
It's just day in paradise As you stumble to bed You'd anything to silence Those voices ringing in your You thought you could happiness Just over that hill You thought you would be But you never to be still We are sheep without a shepherd We don't know how to be So we wander 'round this And wind up following the wrong gods But the flock out for another And they keep answering bell And one starry-eyed messiah Meets a farewell- Learn to be Learn to be Now the flowers in garden don't smell so sweet Maybe forgotten The heaven lying at your There are so contridictions In all messages we send (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the world is and shaken if your heart is breakin' It's for you to awaken And you will- Learn to be Learn to be You just on runnin' on runnin'
Tequila
It's another tequila slowly 'cross the sky, said goodbye He was just a hand Workin' on the he planned to try The go by Ev'ry when the sun goes down Just lonely boy in town And she's out runnin' She wasn't another woman And I keep from comin' on been so long Oh, and it's a hollow feelin' It down to dealin' friends It ends Take another shot of Wonder why the right words never You just get another tequila sunrise,this old world still the same, frame, mm...
Hotel
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my Warm smell of colitas, up through the air Up in the distance, I saw a shimmering light My head grew and my sight grew dim I had to for the night There she stood in the I the mission bell And I was to myself, 'This be Heaven or this could be Hell' Then she lit up a and she showed me the way There voices down the corridor, I thought I them say... to the Hotel California Such a place Such a face of room at the Hotel California Any time of year, you can it here Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes She got a lot of pretty, boys, that she calls friends How dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat. Some dance to remember, some dance to So I up the Captain, 'Please bring me my He said,'We haven't had that spirit since nineteen sixty nine' And those voices are calling from far away, Wake you up in the middle of the to hear them say... Welcome to the California a lovely place Such a lovely They livin' it up at the Hotel a nice surprise, bring your alibis on the ceiling, The champagne on ice And she said 'We are all just here, of our own device' And in the chambers, They for the feast The stab it with their knives, But they just can't the beast thing I remember, I was Running for the I had to the passage back To the place I was 'Relax,'said the man, We are to receive. You can checkout any you like, but you can leave!

New York
got up Dressed all in down to the station And he never came They his clothing Scattered down the track And he won't be down on Street in the He had a The of a girl But men get sometimes As years One day he crossed line And he was too in this world But I guess it doesn't matter In a New York Everything can In a New York Things can get pretty In a New York can change In a New York Lying in the darkness I hear the sirens Somebody going to going to jail If you find somebody to love in this You better on tooth and nail The wolf is always at the In a New Minute can change In a New Minute Things can get a little In a New York can change In a New York And in days When darkness early And rush home To the ones love You better a fool's advice And tak care of own One day they're day they're gone I pulled my around my shoulders And a walk down through the park The leaves were around me The groaning in the gathering dark On some solitary A desperate lover his mark, "Baby, I've changed. Please back." What the head makes The makes very clear The days so much brighter In the time when she was But I know there's somewhere these dark clouds disappear Until that day, I to believe I believe, I In a New York can change In a New York You can get out of the In a New York can change In a New York

What is and what is mine? 'Cause there is no more new We got to make it here We satifsy our needs and our bloody deeds, in the name of and the name of God And you can see there, On morning They it paradise I don't why You someplace paradise, it goodbye
