A Very Happy Birthday to you Poet my friend :)

JESUS OF SUBURBIA /
City Of The Damned / I Don’t Care /
Dearly Beloved / Tales Of Another Broken Home

I’m the son of rage and love
The Jesus of Suburbia
The bible of none of the above
On a steady diet of
Soda pop and Ritalin
No one ever died for my
Sins in hell
As far as I can tell
At least the ones I got away with
And there’s nothing wrong with me
This is how I’m supposed to be
In a land of make believe
That don’t believe in me

Get my television fix
Sitting on my crucifix
The living room or my private womb
While the moms and brats are away
To fall in love and fall in debt
To alcohol and cigarettes
And Mary Jane
To keep me insane
Doing someone else’s cocaine
And there’s nothing wrong with me
This is how I’m supposed to be
In a land of make believe
That don’t believe in me

At the centre of the Earth
In the parking lot
Of the 7-11 where I was taught
The motto was just a lie
It says home is where your heart is
But what a shame
Cause everyone’s heart
Doesn’t beat the same
It’s beating out of time

City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care

I read the graffiti
In the bathroom stall
Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall
And so it seemed to confess
It didn’t say much
But it only confirmed that
The centre of the earth
Is the end of the world
And I could really care less

City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care………………………………………………………………………………

I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t care

I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t care

I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t care

I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t
I don’t care if you don’t care

And I don’t care……………………………………………………………………………………………..

Everyone is so full of sh.it
Born and raised by hypocrites
Hearts recycled but never saved
From the cradle to the grave
We are the kids of war and peace
From Anaheim to the Middle East
We are the stories and disciples of
The Jesus of suburbia
Land of make believe
And they don’t believe in me
Land of make believe
And I don’t believe
And I don’t care!
I don’t care!
I don’t care!
I don’t care!
I don’t care!

Dearly beloved are you listening?
I can’t remember a word that you were saying
Are we demented or am I disturbed?
The space that’s in between insane and insecure

Oh therapy can you please fill the void?
Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed
Nobody’s perfect and I stand accused
For lack of a better word and that’s my best excuse

To live and not to breathe
Is to die In tragedy
To run
To run away
To find what you believe
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fuc.king lies
I lost my faith to this
This town that don’t exist
So I run
I run away
To the light of masochist
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fuc.king lies
And I walked this line
A million and one fuc.king times

But not this time

I don’t feel any shame
I won’t apologise
When there ain’t nowhere you can go
Running away from pain
When you’ve been victimised
Tales from another broken..

Home

You’re leaving…
You’re leaving…
You’re leaving…
Ah you’re leaving home…

Green Day

[Sgt Pepper]

Well.. I’ve been told many times that my rather obscure title has something to do with some form of group or something? :roll: Consisting of four fellows from the Merseyside region of England?
Can’t for the life of me think how or why? :-s

Anyroad, I’m not buying it!

I’m a mere Regimental Condiment and that’s the end of it!!

(Ask my Poshy if you don’t believe me!!
:wink:)

[Sgt Pepper]

Land Of Confusion

I must’ve dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They’re moving into the street

Now did you read the news today
They say the danger’s gone away
But I can see the fire’s still alight
They’re burning into the night

There’s too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can’t you see
This is the land of confusion

Well this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we’re given
Use them and let’s start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Oh Superman where are you now
When everything’s gone wrong somehow
The men of steel
Men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time
This is the place
So we look for the future
But there’s not much love to go round
Tell me why
This is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we’re given
Use them and let’s start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago
Oh when the sun was shining
Yes and the stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight
So long ago..

I won’t be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We’re not just making promises
That we know
We’ll never keep

Too many men
There’s too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can’t you see
This is the land of confusion

Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we’re given
Use them and let’s start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we’re given
Stand up and let’s start showing
Just where our lives are going to…

[Sgt Pepper]

Democracy

It’s coming through a hole in the air
From those nights in Tiananmen Square
It’s coming from the feel
That this ain’t exactly real
Or it’s real but it ain’t exactly there

From the war against disorder
From the sirens night and day
From the fires of the homeless
From the ashes of the gay

Democracy is coming
To the U.S.A.

It’s coming through a crack in the wall
On a visionary flood of alcohol
From the staggering account
Of the Sermon on the Mount
Which I don’t pretend to understand at all

It’s coming from the silence
On the dock of the bay
From the brave
The bold
The battered
Heart of Chevrolet

Democracy is coming
To the U.S.A.

It’s coming from the sorrow in the street
The holy places where the races meet
From the homicidal bi.tchin’
That goes down in every kitchen
To determine who will serve and who will eat

From the wells of disappointment
Where the women kneel to pray
For the grace of God in the desert here
And the desert far away..

Democracy is coming
To the U.S.A.

Sail on
Sail on
Oh mighty Ship of State

To the Shores of Need
Past the Reefs of Greed
Through the Squalls of Hate

Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on

It’s coming to America first
The cradle of the best and of the worst
It’s here they got the range
And the machinery for change
And it’s here they got the spiritual thirst

It’s here the family’s broken
And it’s here the lonely say
That the heart has got to open
In a Fundamental way

Democracy is coming
To the U.S.A.

It’s coming from the women and the men
Oh baby
We’ll be making love again
We’ll be going down so deep
The river’s going to weep
And the mountain’s going to shout Amen!

It’s coming like the tidal flood
Beneath the lunar sway
Imperial
Mysterious
In amorous array

Democracy is coming
To the U.S.A.

Sail on
Sail on
Oh mighty Ship of State

To the Shores of Need
Past the Reefs of Greed
Through the Squalls of Hate

Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on

I’m sentimental
If you know what I mean
I love the country but I can’t stand the scene
And I’m neither left or right
I’m just staying home tonight
Getting lost in that hopeless little screen

But I’m stubborn as those garbage bags
That Time cannot decay
I’m junk but I’m still holding up
This little wild bouquet

Democracy is coming
To the U.S.A.

The Future

Give me back my broken night
My mirrored room
My secret life
It’s lonely here
There’s no one left to torture

Give me absolute control
Over every living soul
And lie beside me baby
That’s an order

Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that’s left
Stuff it up the hole
In your culture

Give me back the Berlin wall
Give me Stalin and St Paul
I’ve seen the future brother
It is murder

Things are gonna slide
Slide in all direction
Won’t be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard
The blizzard of the world
Has crossed the threshold
And it’s overturned
The order of the soul

When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?
When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?
When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?

You don’t know me from the wind
You never will
You never did
I’m the little Jew
Who wrote the Bible

I’ve seen the nations rise and fall
I’ve heard their stories
Heard them all
But love’s the only engine of survival

Your servant here he has been told
To say it clear to say it cold
It’s over
It ain’t going any further

And now the wheels of heaven stop
You feel the devil’s riding crop
Get ready for the future
It is murder

Things are gonna slide
Slide in all direction
Won’t be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard
The blizzard of the world
Has crossed the threshold
And it’s overturned
The order of the soul

When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?
When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?
When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?

There’ll be the breaking of the ancient western code
Your private life will suddenly explode
There’ll be phantoms
There’ll be fires on the road
And the white man dancing
You’ll see a woman
Hanging upside down
Her features covered by her fallen gown
And all the lousy little poets coming round
Tryin’ to sound like Charlie Manson
And the white man dancin’

Give me back the Berlin wall
Give me Stalin and St Paul
Give me Christ
Or give me Hiroshima
Destroy another foetus now
We don’t like children anyhow
I’ve seen the future baby
It is murder

Things are gonna slide
Slide in all direction
Won’t be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard
The blizzard of the world
Has crossed the threshold
And it’s overturned
The order of the soul

When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?
When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?
When they said
Repent
Repent
I wonder what they meant?
When they said
Repent
Repent..

Tomorrow Never Knows

Turn off your mind relax and float down stream
It is not dying
It is not dying

Lay down all thoughts surrender to the void
It is shining
It is shining

That you may see the meaning of within
It is being
It is being

That love is all and love is everyone
It is knowing
It is knowing

That ignorance and hate may mourn the dead
It is believing
It is believing

But listen to the colour of your dreams
It is not living
It is not living

Or play the game Existence to the end
Of the beginning
Of the beginning
Of the beginning
Of the beginning
Of the beginning
Of the beginning
Of the beginning

[Sgt Pepper]

:P

It was twenty years ago today
Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play
They’ve been going in and out of style
But they’re guaranteed to raise a smile
So may I introduce to you
The act you’ve known for all these years
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band

We’re Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
We hope you will enjoy the show
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
Sit back and let the evening go
Sgt. Pepper’s lonely
Sgt. Pepper’s lonely
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
It’s wonderful to be here
It’s certainly a thrill
You’re such a lovely audience
We’d like to take you home with us
We’d love to take you home

I don’t really want to stop the show
But I thought you might like to know
That the singer’s going to sing a song
And he wants you all to sing along
So let me introduce to you
The one and only Billy Shears
And Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band

Billy Shears…

:P

What would you think if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song
And I’ll try not to sing out of key
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
Mmm I get high with a little help from my friends
Mmm gonna try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away?
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day?
(Are you sad because you’re on your own?)
No I get by with a little help from my friends
Mmm get high with a little help from my friends
Mmm gonna try with a little help from my friends

(Do you need anybody?)
I need somebody to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I want somebody to love

(Would you believe in a love at first sight?)
Yes I’m certain that it happens all the time
(What do you see when you turn out the light?)
I can’t tell you but I know it’s mine
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
Mmm get high with a little help from my friends
Oh I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends

(Do you need anybody?)
I just need someone to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I want somebody to love

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
Mmm gonna try with a little help from my friends
Oh I get high with a little help from my friends
Yes I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my friends

The Beatles
