One More Astronaut
by I Mother Earth


One more astronaut in black skin
Of universe
One more travellin' man
With heavy tired eyes, feeling cold
Thinking around the clock of drinking
On the job, of the powdered food
And piss bags, never having sex and growing old


Headspace...alive and painless,
Weightless and almost sane
I close my eyes, I become the sky
Headspace...alone and shameless
Can't wait to find the faces
I left behind in a troubled time
Back home


It gets so lonely you know
Weeks and months alone chasing
Sleep and space junk and the dying
Stars I've known and loved
Through true decline
Of the five billion minds or so
Through mudslides
And earthquakes, the blue one holds
And rolls along


One more astronaut in
Endless old universe with
One more second chance at
Wondering why he's here at all
Bold are the ones who
Come over the line to fall over
The horizon...never ones to fade away
Then it hit me, this
Cosmic pull and energy
It kinda makes me wonder
If I'll ever make it Back home

Machinehead
by Bush X


Breathe in breathe out
Tied to a wheel fingers got to feel
I spin on a whim I slide to the right
I felt you like electric light
For our love
For our fear
For our rise against the years and years and years


Got a machinehead better than the rest
Green to red machinehead
And I walk from my machine
I walk from my machine


Deaf dumb and thirty
Starting to deserve this
Leaning on my conscious wall
Blood is like wine
Unconscious all the time
If I had it all again
I'd change it all

Tahitian Moon
by Porno For Pyros


My boat's capsized, it's gonna sink to the bottom
I can see the lights on the shore getting farther away
I don't know if I'll make it home tonight, but I know
I can swim under the Tahitian moon
I came out here tonight to look for my friend
I don't know if I'll ever get to see him again...
I don't know if I'll make it home tonight, but I know
I can swim under the Tahitian moon, one last time under the Tahitian moon


The sea is a very easy place to disappear
Drift away
Fall asleep
Make your peace
I came out here tonight to look for my friend
I don't know if I'll ever get to see him again...
I don't know if I'll make it home tonight, but I know
I can swim under the Tahitian moon
One last time under the Tahitian moon
Under the Tahitian moon, under the Tahitian moon.

Queer
by Garbage


Hey boy, take a look at me
Let me dirty up your mind
I'll strip away your hard veneer
And see what I can find


The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer


This is what he pays me for
I'll show you how it's done
You learn to love the pain you feel
Like father like son


The queerest of the queer
Hide inside your head
The blindest of the blind
The deadest of the dead
You're hungry cause you starve
While holding back the tears
Choking on your smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer


I know what's good for you
You can touch me if you want
I know you're dying to
You can touch me if you want
I know what's good for you
You can touch me if you want
But you can't stop


The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
You're nothing special here
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer


I know what's good for you
I know you're dying to
I know what's good for you
I bet you're dying to
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me
You can touch me
But you can't stop

Sweet Dreams
by Marilyn Manson


Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
I wanna use you and abuse you
I wanna know what's inside you
Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Movin' on!
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
I'm gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside
Gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside you

Scooby Snacks
by Fun Lovin' Criminals


Me and Fast got the gats; we're out to rob a bank.
We got Steve outside and he's carrying
a full pack.
Now everything's cool and everthing's smooth.
I walked up to the teller, I gave her the letter
She gave me the loot with puckered up lips
and a wink that I found cute, and I said,
"baby, baby, baby"
(Is this some Kharmic-Chi love thing happening here baby or what.)
By that time Fast tapped me from behind
he said it was time to blow, ya know. So out the door we go.
Back to the ride with Steve inside and alive; off we drive
I hurt my lower lumbar, you know we'll
never get far, riding around in a stolen
police car, so we dropped it off and
piled in a Caddy; Steve was driving
because I had to talk to my man about something.


Running around robbing banks
all wacked off of Scooby Snacks!


I don't give a fuck about the hell's
gate, ain't punkin' the crowd and I'm still
standing up staight.
So, we pull these jobs to make a little money;
no one gets hurt if they don't act funny.
On the way to the yacht, we almost got caught,
fast is shooting mailboxes, not knowing
where the cop is.
They're at the Dunkin Donuts, adjacent from
the Froman's whose mailbox had just
exploded. They gave chase, but our man
Steve is an ace; we lost those brothers
with haste. We cast off and along we went
off Bermuda to an island resort we rent.


Running around robbing banks
all wacked off of Scooby Snacks!

Just A Girl
by No Doubt


Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand


'Cause I'm just a girl, little ol' me
Don't let me out of your sight
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights
Oh...I've had it up to here!


The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things
I hold so dear
Cause it's all those little things
That I fear


Cause I'm just a girl
I'd rather not be
Cause they won't let me drive
Late at night
I'm just a girl.
Guess I'm some kind of freak
CAuse they all sit and stare
With their eyes
I'm just a girl
Take a good look at me
Just your typical prototype
Oh...I've had it up to here!
Oh...Am I making myself clear?


I'm just a Girl
I'm just a girl in the world
That's all that you'll let me be!


I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb
Makes me worrysome
I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to is making me numb
I'm just a girl, my apologies
What I've become is so burdensome
I'm just a girl, lucky me
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison


Oh...I've had it up to!
Oh...I've had it up to!
Oh...I've had it up to here.

Aeroplane
by Red Hot Chili Peppers


Looking in my own eyes
I can't find the love I want
Someone better slap me
Before I start to rust
Before I start to decompose
Looking in my rear mirror
Looking in my rear mirror
I can make it disappear


I like pleasure spiked with pain
Music is my aeroplane
It's my aeroplane
Songbird sweet and sour Jane
It's my aeroplane


Sitting in my kitchen
I'm turning into dust again
My melancholy baby
The star of mazzy must


Push her voice inside of me
I'm overcoming gravity
I'm overcoming gravity
It's easy when you're sad to be


Just one note
Could make me float
Could make me float away
One note from
The song she wrote
Could fuck me where I lay
Just one note
Could make me choke
One note that's
Not a lie
Just one note
Could cut my throat
One could make me die

The Good In Everyone
by Sloan


First off here's what you do to me
You get rough, attack my self esteem
It's not much, but it's the best I've got
And I thought you saw the good in everyone


Oo, the good in everyone
You see the good in everyone
You see the good in everyone


I close my eyes, I can't give it up
I dose my mind, I can't get enough

I'm in no shape, I gotta turn it off
Just let it play, 'The Good In Everyone'


Oo, the good in everyone
You see the good in everyone
You see the good in everyone
You see the good in everyone
Oo, the good in everyone

King Of New Orleans

by Better Than Ezra


There's an angel on the stairs
(as if you'd even care)
When the lights go up,
and the sun has nearly gone down.


Did you see him on the street?
Did you pass him at your feet?
Did you think aloud,"how dare they
even look me in the eye'?


And he loves the girls.
And he loves the boys.
Going to make twenty dollars
before the weekends over.


So set him up,
Let him fall.
Turn him over in your hands.
God save the King of New Orleans.


Got a ticket to a show.
Going to see him take a blow.
When the drunk one said,
"Cat Sssstevens was the greatest singer!"


And did you kick him in the head?
Did you see the blood run down? Did you laugh at all when the
people walked right by and said aloud,
"You gutter punks are all the same.
"Probably make twenty dollars 'fore the weekends over."?


So set him up,
Then let him fall.
Turn him over in your hands.
God save the King of New Orleans.


Radio in my head.
Radio in that car.
Going down again,
he's going down again....


Anyway you look, anyway you talk it over.
It's easier to let it slip out of your mind.
But it rips your heart out.


Then it kicks your head in.
Just give him one more chance,
try to see the beauty in his world.
All the way in on my hands, in on my feet,
and shoulders. Going to make twenty dollars
before the weekends over.


So set him up,
Then let him fall.
Turn him over in your hands.
God save the King of New Orleans.


God save the King of New Orleans.

Tinfoil
by Limblifter



Embryo, grew up missin out on most stuff
but weeds know
just where and when to crop up
Ursula, what's inside your jar of mayo?
expire cover it all up with tinfoil
it seems so corrode me so slow
it boils, won't spoil in tinfoil


purple, everything shines like chrome this summer
enthrone she wrote "beautiful ain't so divine"
Ursula, what's inside your jar?
want to know.
she said
"bold, I will win all yours and drop it in!"
It seems so corrode me so slow
turmoil in tinfoil
so we don't spoil

Corrode corrode me so slow
won't spoil, don't boil in tinfoil

Alone & Easy Target
by Foo Fighters


They knew all along, they're not dumb, they were so wrong.
She's not always fun, hate it now, call when I'm done.
Pieces fell in place, puzzles suck, laugh in my face.
Turn and swing the pace, I'll give this, keep the good waist.


Head is on, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.
Metronome, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.


Crazy T.V. dreams might be true, not what it seems.
Food and cavities, chewing words, tear at the seam.
He don't feel so good, don't feel bad, not that he should.
I don't feel so good, don't feel bad, not that I should.


Head is on, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.
Metronome, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.
Head is on, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.
Metronome, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.


Did you ever listen?  Did you ever listen?  Did you ever listen?
Get out!  Get out!  Get out!  Get out!
Get out!  Get out!  Get out!  Get out!
Get out!  Get out!  Get out!  Get out!


Head is on, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.
Metronome, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.
Head is on, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.
Metronome, I want out,
I'm alone and I'm an easy target.


Did you ever listen?  Did you ever listen?  Did you ever listen?
Get out!  Get out!  Get out!  Get out!
Get out!  Get out!  Get out!  Get out!
Get out!  Get out!  Get out!  Get out!

Ophelia
by Moist


Morning came to pieces without offering is it still real
Precious little pistol beaten senseless till she cant feel
Still the moments passing by its only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came been too close to be so close again
I never meant to be so cold its only the time that we could never stop
Still the moments passing by
Im letting ophelia die
Daisy dusted lightly so politely till she cant see
Itchy little trigger will deliver what you cant be
Still the moments psasing by its only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came been too close to be so close again
I never meant to be so cold its only the time that we could never stop
Still the moments passing by

Im letting ophelia die

Just
by Radiohead


can't get the stink off,
he's been hanging around for days.
comes like a comet,
suckered you but not your friends.
one day he'll get to you,
teach you how to be a holy cow.


you do it to yourself you do
and that's what really hurts is
you do it to yourself just you,
you and no-one else
you do it to yourself.


don't get my sympathy hanging out the 15th floor.
you've changed the locks 3 times,
he still comes reeling through the door.
and soon he'll get to you,
teach you how to get to purest hell.


you do it to yourself you do
and that's what really hurts is
you do it to yourself just you,
you and no-one else
you do it to yourself.

Angry Johnny
by Poe


Johnny, Angry Johnny, this is Jezebel in Hell
I wanna kill you, I wanna blow you...away


I can do it you gently
I can do it with an animal's grace
I can do it with precision
I can do it with gormet taste


But either way
Either (way), either way
I wanna kill you

I wanna blow you...
Away


I can do it to your mind
I can do it to your face
I can do it with integrity
I can do it with disgrace


But either way
Either (way), either way
I wanna kill you
I wanna blow you...
Away


Johnny, Angry Johnny, this is Jezebel in Hell
Johnny, Angry Johnny, this is Jezebel in Hell


I can do it in a church
I can do it any time or place
I can do it like an angel
To quiet down your rage


But either way
Either (way), either way
I wanna kill you
I wanna blow you...
Away


I can do it in the water
I can do on dry land
I can do it with instruments
I can do it with my own bare hands


But either way
Either way, you know where it stands
I wanna kill you
I wanna blow you...
Away


Johnny, Angry Johnny, this is Jezebel in Hell
Johnny, oh my Johnny


Where did your pleasure go
When the pain came through you
Where did your happiness go
This force is running you around now
Getting you down now
Where is your pleasure now Johnny
Where has your pleasure gone now


Johnny, Angry Johnny...

Rave & Drool
by Killjoys


I come undone, wound too tight
I know that I'm wrong and you were right
I can't look you in the face
And settle with my normal grace
You can't put me on a shelf
Then take me down again when you feel like myself


I come undone, wound too tight
I know that I'm wrong and you were right
I can't look you in the face
And settle with my normal grace
You can't put me on a shelf
Then take me down again when you feel like myself


It was just another cure
Never bother, just ignore
I'm not anything at all
I'm not a monster, I'm a friend who raves and drools


you come around, well you might
I know that I'm wrong and you were right
I can't look you in the face
Settle with my normal grace
You were pristine, I was filth
Lets just get it out and get it over with


It was just another cure
Never bother, just ignore
I'm not anything at all
I'm not a monster, I'm a friend who raves and drools


I can't look you in the face
And settle with my normal grace
You can't put me on a shelf
Then take me down again when you feel like myself


It was just another cure
Never bother, just ignore
I'm not anything at all
I'm not a monster, I'm a friend who raves and drools

Paste

by Pluto


So I'm ready to leave, Polly you're sure that you want me to go?
Brush it off my sleeve, Polly your fleece was white as snow
I can taste the glue holding the smile upon my face
When I think of you scrubbing the stain


Face me
Make me


So I'm ready to leave, Polly you're sure that you want me to go?
Brush it off my sleeve, Polly your fleece was white as snow
I can taste the glue holding the smile upon my face
When I think of you scrubbing the stain

Make me


To beg to me

Novacane
by Beck


Keep on talking like a novacane hurricane
Low static on the poor man's short-wave
Stampede's got to dismantle
Code-red: what's your handle


Mission incredible undercover convoy
Full-tilt chromosome cowboy
X-ray search and destroy
Smoke stack black top novacane boy


Got so low your mom won't drum
Getting late with the suicide beat
Test-tube, still-born and dazed
Chump scum plays in the razor's haze
Got the momentum radioactive
Lowdown!


Circumsized for the operation
Don't expect some generation
Cyanide ride down the turnpike
Hundred hours on the miracle mic


Grinding the gears eighteen wheels
Rigs and robots riding on their heels
Fine tune robot making a sand box
Heats and infernos burning like drano
Down the horizon purple gasses
Semi-trucks hauling them asses
Novacane, hit the road expressway
Explode!


Novacane! Novacane!
