Noticable One

My image is hard and my attitude heavy
I'll take you out with the things that I say
I draw the crowds and whenever I'm ready
I got what it takes to blow them all away

I am your social and your cultural leader
I create fads and make all of the scenes
You know about me from your weekly reader
I'm on the cover of your magazines

'Cause I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
notice me, notice me, noticable ones
I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
notice me, notice me, noticable ones

My private life is scandalized by the public
But that's the price I have to pay for my fame
And all the liggers in my way with their cute tricks
Are getting over just by dropping my name

'Cause I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
notice me, notice me, noticable ones
I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
notice me, notice me, noticable ones

I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
notice me, notice me, noticable ones
I am one of the noticable ones, notice me
notice me, notice me, noticable ones

noticable ones, notice me (x5)
noticable ones, notice me, notice me
noticable ones

Windows

Something feels so strange tonight
it's not wrong but it's just not right
some hidden complications, fill me with hesiatation

and it gets so dark in here
I can't see through doubts and fears
walled in by expectation, I need a deviation
change in perspective, alternateive view
to help me see clearly, observe something new

Chorus:
All I want is a window to look through
All I need is a window to look through
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

(chorus)

outside the world's so dangerous
It's hard to find someone to trust
fills me with reservation deives me into hibernation
I watch whats going on
but I don't want to belong
leave me in my introspection
safely behind protection

(chorus x2)

looking through windows at the world
looking through windows at the world
safe behind windows from the world
safe behind windows from the world
watching my window world go by
just watching my window world go by
without my window who am I
without my window who am I

(chorus x2)

All I want
All I want is a window to look through
All I want
All I need is a window to look through
All I need
It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

(chorus)

It Ain't None of Your Business

Don't tell me what to do, and don't you ask me where I'm going to
I have to do what's right for me
Why is it so hard for you to see

Tryin' to get along with you is not an easy thing to do
Your suspicious nature drives me mad
You're wrecking everything that we had

It ain't none of your business where I'm goin
It ain't none of your business who I'm seein
It ain't none of your business

So stop fooling around with my life
you can't possibly know what it's like to be be inside of me
I'm on my own why can't you just leave me alone

I have always trusted you
If I can do it you can too
What I do is my concern, now you're just gonna have to learn

Chorus:
It ain't none of your business where I'm goin
It ain't none of your business who I'm seein
It ain't none of your business what I'm doin
It ain't none of your business
It ain't

You've got to take me serious
You're makin' me delerious
I feel like someone who's in jail now let go of my shirt tail

This kind of relationship is on the rocks
I can't take it anymore
You're driving me right out of the door

(chorus)
It ain't none of your business (x7)
It ain't, it ain't none of your business

Destination Unknown

Life is so strange when you don't know
How can you tell where yore' going to
you can't be sure of any situation
something could change and then you won't know

Ask youself
where do we go from here
it seems so all to near
just as far beyond as I can see
I still don't know what this all means to me

Tell yourself
I have nowhere to go
I don't know what to do
And I don't even know the time of day
I guess it doesn't matter any way

Chorus:
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know
Your destination
Something could change
It's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown

(chorus)

You ask yourself
When will my time come
Has it all been said and done
I know I'll leave when it's my time to go
Till then I'll carry on with what I know

(chorus x2)

Life is so strange (x16)

Walking in L.A.


Look ahead as we pass, try and focus on it
I won't be fooled by a cheap cinematic trick
It must have been just a cardboard cut out of a man
Top-forty cast off from a record stand

Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.

I don't know could've been a lame jogger maybe
Or someone just about to do the freeway strangler baby
Shopping cart pusher or maybe someone groovie
One thing's for sure, he isn't starring in the movies.
'Cause he's walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., only a nobody walks in L.A.

Walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'
Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' (x3)

You won't see a cop walkin' on the beat
Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

You only see 'em drivin' cars out on the street
Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

You won't see a kid walkin' home from school
Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

Their mothers pick 'em up in a car pool
Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.

Could it be that the smog's playing tricks on my eyes
or is it a rollerskater in some kind of headphone disguise
Maybe somebody who just ran out of gas,
Making his way back to the pumps the best way he can.

Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., only a nobody walks in L.A.

Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' (x6)
Nobody walks in L.A.

U.S. Drag

You can feel it closing in on you but there's not much you can do

It's not a thing you can put your finger on, but you know when it's gone

Endless stream of highways neon roadsigns and telephone lines

A little town somewhere in the midwest gonna put your patience to the test

Chorus:
It's the U.S. Drag,
U.S. Drag,
It's the U.S. Drag
Their ain't no drag like the U.S. Drag

Music down a windy street, half a glance from strangers you don't wanna meet

Juke box blaring, stale beat, mixes with gamblers, gangsters boredom &
fear in the pale blue T.V. light

(chorus)

An it's closin' in on you
It's the U.S. Drag
It's the U.S. Drag
and there's nothing you can do
U.S. Drag
U.S. Drag
It's the U.S. Drag
It's the U.S. Drag

Tears

I can't bear the thought of leaving you but I don't dare to stay
My heart and soul are at a tug of war but my choice is made
Left with emptyiness no second thoughts there's nothing less to say
There was time enough to tell you that you were the only one
I held thoughts of you inside me when I was the lonely one
You so thoughtlessly took all from me and drained my life away

Chorus:
All I have left to give are my tears
All I have left to give are my tears
All the time spent through all of the years
All I have left to give are my tears, all my tears

all my tears (x5)

They say time will heal everything; reason and common sense
But with time and reason surely comes the loss of innocence
I've outgrown this kind of silly game I just don't want to play
Who'd have thought from such a simple start this would get so involved
Who'd have thought that this would ever end being unresolved
And for now I think I've had enough so let's call it a day

(chorus)

If there were someone I could turn to
it would be easier for me
It's not an easy thing to go through
without a reason to believe

They say time will heal everything; reason and common sense
But with time and reason surely comes the loss of innocence
I've outgrown this kind of silly game I just don't want to play
Who'd have thought from such a simple start this would get so involved
Who'd have thought that this would ever end being unresolved
And for now I think I've had enough so let's call it a day

(chorus)
all my tears (x7)

Here and Now

Here we are in the here and now
All I can see is what's in front of me
All I know is what is you tell me now
All I know is what is you tell me now so tell me now

I'll continue on I know somehow
Can't remember how it felt just then
Can't seem to remember when
Can't seem to remember when... even then

Refrain 1:
Did it feel the way it should
Did it feel really good
I want to be back there now
Wish I could, and you would

Refrain 2:
Wonder if you held me tight
And did you shield me from my fright
Where are you now
Where are you now... are you now

Chorus:
All I can see is what's in front of me
All I know is what is you tell me now
It doesn't seem the same somehow
All I can see is what's in front of me
All I know is what is you tell me now
It doesn't seem the same somehow
In the here and now, now and then
In the here and now, now and then

(refrain 1)

(refrain 2)

(chorus)
In the here and now, now and then
In the here and now, now and then
now and then
now

Words

Chorus 1:
Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care

My lips are moving and the sound's coming out
The words are audible but I have my doubts
That you realize what has been said
You look at me as if you're in a daze
It's like the feeling at the end of the page
when you realize you don't know what you just read

Chorus 2:
What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all

I might as well go up and talk to a wall
'cause all the words are having no effect at all
It's a funny thing am I all alone

Something has to happen to change the direction
What little filters through is giving you the wrong impression
It's a sorry state I say to myself

(chorus 2)

(chorus 1)

Let me get by
Over your dead body
Hope to see you soon
When will I know
Doors three feet wide with no locks open
Walking always backwards in the faces of strangers
Time could be my friend
But it's less than nowhere now
less than nowhere now
less than nowhere now
now
ow ow ow

Pursue it further and another thing you'll find
Not only are they deaf and dumb they could be going blind and no one notices
I think I'll dye my hair blue

Media overload bombarding you with action
It's getting near impossible to cause distraction
Someone answer me before I pull out the plug

(chorus 2 - x2)

(chorus 1)
tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
tell me what are words for
Do you care
tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
so tell me what are words for
Do you care
so tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
tell me what are words for
so tell me what are words for
Do you care
so tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
tell me what are words for
so tell me what are words for
Do you care
so tell me what are words for

Bad Streets

I'll tell you right now I'm committed to myself
I'll use you, I'll put it to you
No one will ever play chess with my life
I'm for certain, a free person
It's only real when it's real for me
I'm tryin'- not cryin;
Seven chances means seven times changed
No waiting- no debating

I'm kicking down, bad streets
Just looking at what I'm becoming
I'm dancing to my beat
Just look at the game I'm running

No one ever gets close to me
I'm selfish stand offish
You'll never guess what I'm gonna do next
I'm impulsive-compulsive
I'll get over if its the last thing I do
I'll make it- I won't fake it
You can't tag along if you've got nothing better to do
I'll show you- won't slow you

I'm kicking down bad streets I'm having fun looking out for number one
I'm just dancing to my beat
Look at me go I know a lot of things that you don't know

Rock and Roll Suspension

Sh she says that you need too much attention
What is the answer to this Rock n' Roll suspension

Will you remain alone to spend your old age pension
To reconcile with the housr of school you spent in detention
When she is gone where will you regain this adoration
Now what will you declare to be your destination

Can you defend on your reflection to disguise your love contamination
So she says that you need too much attention
What is the answer to this Rock n' Roll suspension

Do you examine your projections based on the impulses of your impressions
Just know only you will live your reputation will be the culmination be
perfection

Can you depend on your reflection to disguise your love contamination
Too much attention, this Rock n' Roll suspension

No Way Out

No way
No way out
No wat
No way out

I'm watching all my friends
Searchin' so desperately
They don't know but they really don't see
They can't find peace of mind
They're wasting all their time
Lookin' for something
That they'll never find

I face the music n' dance
Be what I have to be
There's no escapin' from it now for me

Who cares what it all means
'cause there can be no doubts
You won't find me searchin'
For an easy way out

Every one's so afraid
In this atomic age
Can't seem to handle livin'
Day to day

Becomin' so confused
They don't know what's in view
They seek escape in everything
They do

I've had my fill of kicks
I'm tired of drugs and sex
And I don't worry 'bout what's
happenin' next

I'm not searchin' for a way out
I'm not searchin' for a way out
You won't find me searchin' for an easy way
All you wanna do is seek escape escape escape

I know there's no way out for me
I know just what I have to be
Days go by it's getting late
Don't you know you're tempting fate
