all the pretty girls are waiting outside for the boys to come in their fresh clean ties, but look at me, I am locked up tight I will be your guide through the lonesome night and as we go, you will see that you're in for a treat, for a show, for a whole new way to be a a freedom fighter and the token outsider the angry letter writer, broken cigarette lighter the music is calling your name, won't you be there tonight we're moving to a whole new world where the sky is so bright my name is Gaius Jeepers and it's very nice to meet you I am right beside, I'll hold your hand we will take it step by step, I'll clothe you and I'll feed you floating right along till we see land flowers in bloom and the grass is growing the kids are playing and the mama is sewing the dawn has broken, God has spoken but we're still here, and inside it's snowing I'm pretty comfortable, I feel no pain but the silence is enough to drive anyone insane, so flip the switch, it starts to glow now grab your microphone, 'cause here we go the music is calling your name, won't you be there tonight we're moving to a whole new world where the sky is so bright my name is Gaius Jeepers and it's very nice to meet you I'm your new best friend, I'm your brother I'm the only one that you can trust with all your secrets we will learn to love one another tell me, tell me, can you smell smoke tell me, tell me, can you feel the growth the music is calling your name (x4) I don't charge admission, I just want your loving we are in remission, we're just on vacation we're just on vacation tonight

can you wait for me to find myself can you find a way to heal thyself and I listen to these these voices in my head but all they say is make it louder don't have to wonder why grows all around me like a flower don't have to wonder why my muse comes and goes and today it's here at last I asked those voices questions but they just stood and laughed and all they say is make it louder don't have to wonder why grows all around me like a flower don't have to wonder why

Tommy wasn't made for this, he has his father's genes he was valedictorian till he stepped out on the scene he rolled up to his girlfriend's in his fucking corduroys he never saw it coming, she was hanging with her boys he got blasted, blasted now he's dancing to Nirvana with a crawfish and his mama and he broke out in hives and he can't believe his eyes and he wonders if there's every gonna be an end in site brother oh, say it again with me we're in the ecstasy of our lives oh, see how your life could be here in the ecstasy of our lives the time is now, the time is now, grab it while you can every man that knows his god is in the frying pan so jump into the fire, 'cause it's only a matter of time we'll give you a break and a chance to get baked so there it is, where do I sign we'll have a manager and we'll have a chauffeur we'll be in magazines with Tommy's father's genes and never ever doubt it son, never ever doubt it Tommy wasn't sure at first, today he's all about it oh, say it again with me we're in the ecstasy of our lives oh, see how your life could be here in the ecstasy of our lives

Shit, Boy 01:47
Saturday evening, it all went down she wasn't breathing, no one made a sound like I said then, it's not my fault it went from dancing to aggravated assault so screw you and your judgmental eyes I know what you're after, I see through the lies carry that weight, wherever I roam got my pops, so I'm never going home
5.
I have often heard be all you can be I have often heard always do your best just a spoken word pushing you forward just a broken word, you have failed the test I'm so sorry you're oh so demanding I'm just passing through 'cause I'm going nowhere I'll see that day 'cause I'm going nowhere, baby and I intend to stay like a motorboat that's run out of gas but now I'm taking charge, I've got a plan in mind are you coming too? pack up all your things time to start anew, you never know what you'll find kiss your friends goodbye, they'll never know we're gone I'm just passing through 'cause I'm going nowhere I know the way 'cause I'm going nowhere, baby and I intend to stay
