Dolls of Voodoo
All stuck will pins
One for each of us
And our sins
So you lay us in a line
Push your pins
They make us humble
Only you can tell in time
If we fall or merely stumble
But tell me
Can you heal what father’s done
Or fix the hole in mother’s son
Can you heal the broken
Worlds within
Can you strip away
So we may start again
Tell me
Can you heal what father’s done
Or cut this rope
And let us run
Just when all seems fine
And I’m pain free
Jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
Mirror mirror upon the wall
Break the spell or become the doll
See you sharpening the pins
So the holes will remind us
We’re just the toys in the hands of another
And in time the neddles turn from shine to rust
But tell me
Can you heal what father’s done
Or fix the hole in mother’s son
Can you heal the broken
Worlds within
Can you strip away
So we may start again
Tell me
Can you heal what father’s done
Or cut this rope
And let us run
Just when all seems fine
And I’m pain free
Jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
Jab it

Suppose I say
I’m never satisfied
Suppose I say
You cut some roots
To make the tree survive
Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once
I’m oh so bored to death
Oo, I hunger
I hunger
I eat!
Born into attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell
Why cure the fever?
What ever happened to sweat?
Suppose I say
The vultures smile at me
Suppose I say
I’ve sent them down
And they plan to pick you clean

My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my viens
There’s a dog at your back step
He must come in from the rain
I fall cause I let go
The net below has rot away
So my eyes seek reality
And my fingers seek my viens
The trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
And I can’t bear to see
What I’ve let me be
So wicked and worn
So as I write to you
Of what is done and to do
Maybe you’ll understand
And won’t cry for this man
‘Cause low man is due
Please forgive me
My eyes seek reality
My fingers feel for faith
Touch clean with a dirty hand
I touch the clean to the waste
The trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
And I can’t bear to see
What I’ve let me be,
So wicked and worn

There’s a black cloud overhead
That’s me
And the poison ivy chokes the tree
Again it’s me
I’m the filthy one on Bourbon St.
You walk on by
I’m the little boy that pushes hard
And makes them cry
There’s a dirty needle in your child
Ha ha! Stick me!
Empty bottle
Still in hand
Still dead
Still me
I’m the suit and tie
That bleeds the street
And still wants more
I’m the .45
That’s in your mouth
I’m the dirty dirty whore

So wake up sleepy one
It’s time to save your world
Steal dreams and give to you
Shoplift a thought or two
All children touch the sun
Burn fingers one by one
By one
Will this Earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
So wake up sleepy one
It’s time to save your world
You’re where the wild things are
Toy soldiers off to war
Big eyes to open soon
Believing all under sun and moon
But does heaven know you’re here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears
Will this Earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?
Continue reading ‘Where The Wild Things Are’
Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
Bad
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Come clean, ‘fess up
Tell all, spill gut
Off the veil
Stand revealed
Show the cards
Bring it on
Break the seal
Ladies and Gentlemen
Step right up
And see the man
Who told the truth
Swing the noose again
Pierce the apple skin
You bit more than you need
Now your chokin’ on the bad seed
On the bad seed
I’m chokin’
Yeah!
Let on
Load off
Confess
Cast off
At the mercy
The cat is out!
Drop the disguise
Spit it up
Spit it out
And now what you’ve all been waiting for
I give you he who suffers the truth

Hit dirt
Shake tree
Split sky
Part sea
Strip smile
Lose cool
Bleed the day
And break the rule
Live win
Dare fail
Eat the dirt
And bite the nail
Then make me miss you
Then make me miss you
So wash your face away with dirt
It don’t feel good until it hurts
So take this world and shake it
Come squeeze and suck the day
Come carpe diem, baby
Draw lead
Piss wine
Sink teeth
All mine
Stoke fire
Break neck
Suffer through this
Cheat on death
Continue reading ‘Carpe Diem Baby’
Don’t go looking for snakes, you might find them
Don’t send your eyes to the sun, you might blind them
Haven’t I seen you here before?
Oo! Watch the puppets dancin’
Yeah, see the clowns fall down
Hey, tie your tap shoes tightly
Yeah, wear them into town
See you crawlin’
See you crawlin’ in
Don’t go looking for snakes, you might find them
Don’t send your eyes to the sun, you might blind them
Haven’t I seen you here before?
There ain’t no heroes here
Hey, hey, hey!
Oo! Play the game so nicely
Oh, Check it’s your move now
Yeah, we’re standing in this jungle
Yeah, with serpents I have found

I look at you, then you me
Hungry and thirsty are we
Holding the lion’s share
Holding the key
Holding me back because I’m striving to be
Better than you….(Better than you)
Better than you….(Better than you)
Lock horns
I push and I strive
Somehow I feel more alive
Bury the need for it
Bury the seed
Bury me deep
Where there’s no will to be
Better than you….(Better than you)
Better than you….(Better than you)
Oh! Can’t stop this train from rollin’
Oh, Yo! Nothin’ brings me down
No, I can’t stop this train from rollin’
Rollin’ on and on
No, no! from rolling all day long
(solo)

Lay beside me, and tell me what they’ve done
And speak the words I want to hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it’s opened if your true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you
Lay beside me, under the wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there’s no sun shinning through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there’s no sun shinning through
No there’s no sun shinning through
No there’s no sun shinning…
What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?
What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, ’cause I’m the one that waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?
Continue reading ‘The Unforgiven II’
Yeah!
I feel you too
Feel!
Those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns
To free the you that’s wanting through
Deep inside you know, the seeds I plant will grow
One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah, c’mon, c’mon, now take the chance
That’s right
Let’s Dance!
Snake!
I am the snake
Tempting!
That bite to take
Let me make your mind
Leave yourself behind
Be not afraid
I’ve got what you need, hunger I will feed
One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah, c’mon, c’mon, now take the chance
Ha, Ha
Come Dance!
Yeah, Come get’s it

Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains
Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd
Cry the nowhere cheers of honor
Like twisted vines that grow
Hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of an already
Faded prima donna
Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains
Heavy rings hold cigarettes
Up to lips that time forgets
While the Hollywood sun sets
Behind your back
And can’t the band play on
Just listen, they play my song
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane (insane)
Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
Dance little tin goddess

Gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire Ooh
Turn on I see red
Adrenaline crash and crack my head
Nitro junkie paint me dead
And I see red
One hundred plus through black and white
War horse
Warhead
Fuck ‘em man white nuckle tight
Through black and white
Ooh on I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard, loose and clean
And on I burn
Churning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline
Just gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Turn on beyond the bone
Swallow future
Spit out home
Burn your face upon the crome
Yeah!
