Lyrics

Uncivilized

I am the gatekeeper
Your only sonic savior
The culture's defender
I know what's best
You're so uncivilized
You don't know what it's like
Been here since seventy nine
I was around when punk rock died
I saw it

You're not our kind of people
You just don't think like we do
I bet you couldn't if you tried
You're not smart enough no

Now all you working masses
Who never took art classes
You think that you deserve a say
No way
You don't respect the memory
Of everything punk meant to me
And I will not let you dance on its grave

You're not our kind of people
You just don't think like we do
You're not open minded enough
Not like us
You're not our kind of people
You don't know the rules like we do
And I think that you should just go away

Gin and Ginger Ale

Last night's gin and ginger ale shot this morning all to hell
Limp my way to rise and shine throw some water in my eyes
They get blurrier each morning think I'm starting to go blind
And it's really scaring me but there's no one I wanna see

I want sobriety I want a billion dollars
And the whiskey and the women I can spend it all on
I want 20/20 vision peace of mind and clarity
But I can't see a point to anything

I can't see a point to anything
I can't see a point to anything
I can't see a point to anything
I can't see a point to anything

Should I go look for a job should I just go shopping for
Another guitar cable a new microphone cord
A couple temporary things I can pretend are hopes and dreams
Just enough to fill the ache without getting my life straight

I want sobriety I want a billion dollars
And the whiskey and the women I can spend it all on
I want 20/20 vision peace of mind and clarity
But I can't see a point to anything

I want sobriety I want a billion dollars
And the whiskey and the women I can spend it all on
I want 20/20 vision peace of mind and clarity
But I can't see a point to anything

I can't see a point to anything
I can't see a point to anything
I can't see a point to anything
I can't see a point to anything

I Won't Stand

I don't know what the hell you expected to find
There's nothing for you here inside my silent mind
You're looking for the face of who you think that I should be
But I don't owe you that don't owe you anything

Going crazy going crazy going crazy
I don't want to
Falling faster falling faster falling faster
I refuse
You turned every part of me you touched
Into a tick-tick-ticking time bomb
And I will not be defused

You love the perfect me you made up in your head
I hate the real you that's here with me in bed
It's been more lonely ever since you came around
I disappear a little more each day soon I won't be found

Getting smaller getting smaller getting smaller
I won't stand for
Growing darker growing darker growing darker
I'll escape
You turned every part of me you touched
Into a big black black black hole
And I will crush your shape

In Disguise

Don't listen to their lies
They'll pull the wool over your eyes
They might've suckered you
But not me I know the truth that

Joe Perry is Gary Busey in disguise
It's in front of your eyes man
Joe Perry is Gary Busey in disguise
Don't listen to their lies

Say they're trying to protect the youth
'Cause the kids cannot handle the truth
It's all a conspiracy
Open your eyes you'll really see that

Joe Perry is Gary Busey
Joe Perry is Gary Busey
Don't approach him on the street
Just beat a positive retreat 'cause

Joe Perry is Gary Busey in disguise
And I'm ready to fight for the truth

Joe Perry is really Gary Busey
Joe Perry is really Gary Busey
Have you ever seen them in the same room
No

'Cause Joe Perry is really Gary
Joe Perry is really Gary
Joe Perry is really Gary
And I heard Tim Allen's a lobster

Happy Go Luck

I been drinking in the House of the Moon
Couple dollars just to buy me a tune
I don't wanna hear a single sound right now
But my own voice as I sing along with what the jukebox is kicking out

Life is painful love is too
I drink my cares away in the House of the Moon

Happy go lucky 'til closing time
Then a silent barmaid with faraway eyes
Leads me upstairs for the night yeah
Happy go lucky 'til closing time
Then a silent barmaid with faraway eyes
Leads me upstairs for the night yeah

And the college kids all come by after class
They start off loud and they raise their voices everytime they raise a glass
Talking sex love God and politics Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung
I'm just smiling to myself I used to be that young

Life is painful love is too
They'll all find that out someday but I hope it ain't too soon

Happy go lucky 'til closing time
Then a silent barmaid with faraway eyes
Leads me upstairs for the night yeah
Happy go lucky 'til closing time
Then a silent barmaid with faraway eyes
Leads me upstairs for the night yeah

Life is painful love is too
But I hope they never get to be too much for you
When life gets painful love's untrue
Raise a glass with me my dear in the House of the Moon
