Title
- Maxwell can't tell he's in hell
- he just wants you to visit him there
- same old game that he's playin'
- his rules are never fair
- nobody want to look back everybody wanna get high tonight
- before they run outta time where's the felon the chargible
- felon the name of the crook who committed the crime
- dial 999 if you really want the truth
- dial 999 if you can't see it through
- he ain't jack the ripper he's your ordinary crook
- calling maxwell murder for you
- maxwell got a hand in his plan
- he knows who you are in this plan
- chop the rock before you bought it
- sick maxwell knows you got it
- nobody want to look back everybody wanna get high tonight
- before they run outta time where's the felon the chargible
- felon the name of the crook who committed the crime
- dial 999 if you really want the truth
- dial 999 if you can't see it through
- he ain't jack the ripper he's your ordinary crook
- calling maxwell murder for you
- [x2]
- Hey sister do you know what time it was when you finally seen all your broken
- dreams come crashing down your door they demand an answer and they demand it
- quick or the questions fade and the wasted days come crawling back for more
- do you know where the power lies? and who pulls the strings do you know where
- the power lies it starts and end with you the face of isolation well well this
- one you recognize well you can't get staright it's a lonely place and it's one
- you do despise boredom is for sale now and helplessness you feel it's a
- wounded dove and the hawks are above blood splattered on a reel to reel I was
- almost over my world was almost gone in a sudden rush I coul almost touch the
- things that I'd done wrong my sungle's made of concrete through silence I
- could feel my aim is true I will walk on through these mountains made of steel
- Took the 60 bus
- out of downtown Cambell.
- Ben Zanotto, he was on there he was waitin' for me
- all the punk rockers
- and the moon stompers
- are out on the corners where
- they sparing for change
- I started thinkin'.
- you know I started drinkin'.
- you know I don't remember too much of that day.
- Somethin' struck me funny when we ran out of money
- Where do you go now when your only 15?
- With the music execution and the talk of revolution
- it bleeds in me and it goes...
- Give 'em the boot the roots the radicals
- Give 'em the boot you know I'm a radical
- Give 'em the boot the roots the reggae on my stereo
- The radio was playin' Desmond Dekker was singin'
- on the 43 bus as we climb up the hill
- Nothin' incoming but the reggae drummin',
- and we all come from unloving homes.
- (I said) "Why even bother" and I pick up the bottle
- Mr. bus driver please let these people on
- rude girl Carol was a mini-skirt girl
- my blurry vision saw nothin' wrong.
- [repeat]

- If you wanna make the move
- Then you better come in
- It's just the ability to reason
- That wears so thin
- Living and dying and the stories that are true
- Secrets to a good life is knowing when you're through
- [Chorus]
- Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
- Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
- [x2]
- Well, he's back in the hole where they got him living
- Like a rat but he's smarter than that nine lives
- Like a cat 15 years old take him to the youth authority home
- First thing you learn is that you got to make it
- In this world alone
- [Chorus]
- Now he's gotten out he's gotten free he's gotta go gotta car
- 21 years old he's runnin' numbers from the bar
- His pager's beepin' he's got in deep in
- Whatever he can move on in you know that kid's a creepin'
- [Chorus]
- The boy’s a time bomb
- Tears come from the razor that's been tattooed below
- His eye his mother cries she knows that he is strong enough
- To die he's rollin' in the Cadillac it's midnight sunroof is down
- Three shots rung out, the hero's dead, the new king is crowned.
- [Chorus x2]
- Ohh, time bomb

- Hangin' out with Lars down on 6th street
- he knew I was in trouble
- I was feeling much like the devil
- there was something burnin' deep inside of me
- ran into three Puerto Ricans
- these girls took us to the funhouse
- where we played a lonely pinball machine
- hangin' on the corner of 52nd. and Broadway
- cars passin' by but none of them seem to be goin' my way
- New York City well I wish I was on a highway
- back to Olympia...
- I'm having a hard time understanding
- it gets all too demanding
- she's all gone and I'm stranded
- something burning deep inside of me
- all I know it's 4'o'clock and
- she ain't never showed up
- and I watched a thousand people go home from work
- how many times will it take me
- before I go crazy
- before I lose everything
- something burning deep inside of
- me ran into three Puerto Ricans
- those girls took us to the funhouse
- I don't wanna be alone again.
- The common man doesn't suffer pain like this
- only the soul that has never been kissed
- let us adore our beautiful son
- he's ridin' on the river of Babylon
- bootin' up, shootin' up bring on the brightness
- see the son of god is comin' up and I see a likeness
- internalize the lunacy of the misery is showin'
- when you're brought up you're caught up in a system that's goin'
- no one answers no one takes that call from you
- junkyman tell me what your story is...
- water I desire
- some parents house is on fire
- slowly the house gonna burn to the ground
- the neighborhood will watch without a sound
- will someone be a witness please tell me that he's crazy
- but he's not and they know that and they can't get him cause he's not crazy
- beat lock him knock him take him away his authority
- hit 'em, ship 'em, club 'em submitted conformity
- my hand went blind
- you were in the veins clairvoyant
- my hand went blind
- i make love to my trance sister my trance sister
- went on and my trance parents see from the balcony
- I looked out on the big field
- it opens like the cover of an old bible
- And out come the wolves
- their paws trampling in the snow the alphabet
- I stand on my head and watch it all go away
- bootin' up, shootin' up bring on the brightness
- see the son of god is comin' up and there is a likeness
- internalize the lunacy the misery is showin' when
- you're brought up and caught up in a system that is goin'

- Echoes of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
- havin' a party up next door but i'm sittin here all alone
- two lovers in the bedroom and the other starts to shout
- all i got is this blank stare and that don't carry no clout at all
- [Chorus]
- Destination unknown
- Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
- [x2]
- He's singin and she's there to lend a hand
- he's seen his name on the marquee but she will never understand
- once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye
- embraces with a warm gesture it's time, time to say goodbye
- [Chorus]
- Ruby's heart ain't beatin cause she knows the feelin' is gone
- she's not the only one who knew there's somethin' wrong
- her lover's in the distance as she wipes a tear from her eye
- ruby's fading out, she disappears, it's time, time to say goodbye
- [Chorus]
- Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
- Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
- Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
- Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
- Destination unknown (Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho)
- Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
- [x2]
- He was an artist and a writer
- and a poet and a friend
- In a man's life he will take a fall
- but how low he goes it just depends
- He's shooting dope in the men's room
- at the station daly city train
- Have you ever seen an angel well I know I have
- they'll stay here for a while and then they'll fly away
- [Chorus: x2]
- Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
- When he rolled the dice he never thought twice
- never thought twice about being him
- Some grown up and some grow old
- but what about the kid who never learned the rules
- Spent all these years on this earth
- when you look back it's just a flicker of time
- Jackyl was one of the one's that perished
- He was one of the one's that was already saved
- Through all the evil and wreckage
- he maintained a sense of himself
- [Chorus x2]
- Some men are in prison even though they walk the streets at night
- Other men who got the lockdown are free as a bird in flight
- [Chorus x2]
- Reconcile to the relief
- consumed in sacred ground for me
- there wasn't always a place to go
- but there was always an urgent need to belong
- all these bands and
- all these people
- all these friends and
- we were equals but
- what you gonna do
- when everybody goes on without you?
- to the end to the end i'll journey to the end
- started in 87 ended in 89
- got a garage or an amp we'll play anytime
- it was just the 4 of us, yeah man the core of us
- too much attention unavoidably destroyed us
- 4 kids on tour, 3000 miles in a 4-door car not know what was goin' on
- we got a million years
- tourin' out like this hell
- no no premonition coulda seen this
- my friend came from far away
- from new orleans into the east bay
- he said this is a mecca i said this ain't no mecca man, this place's fucked
- 3 months go by, he had no home he had no food he's all alone
- matty said fool me once shame on you didn't fool me twice
- he went back to new orleans
- The way that she moves well i was aroused
- impowered impassioned by every move
- it's cold outside we need a place to hide
- go into the club to thaw out for the night
- she's automatic so automatic the way that she moves
- she asked me if I would stand by
- her side like glue that I would till the end of the night
- my head was spinnin' a million miles an hour
- the chance I was takin' I get anxious around her
- she put her head on my shoulder I started to hold her
- swingin' and swayin' the morning began
- [Chorus:]
- Good morning heartache
- You're like an old friend
- Come and see me again
- Look up you're in Cleveland again
- A solid line that never ends
- I've got stories you'll never believe
- And i know it i wear it on my sleeve
- There must be somethin' about you that I liked but
- Right here in the rain you know it just don't seem right
- I always go out I never hide but in Cleveland
- I should have stayed inside
- [Chorus]
- Testify my love for you
- I know it runs deep through your body too
- From the cold blacktop to the hot concrete
- The old tan van it ain't so sweet
- Somewhere in America in the city at night
- We were far from home but you know it was gonna be alright
- The unfortunate get prayed on by vultures eyes
- 86 cents in these pockets of mine
- And you can take my money,
- You can take my time,
- But you can't take my heart it's in the city behind
- [Chorus]

- Bussiness man come shake my hand show me numbers that I understand your my
- candle I'm your burnin' wick two sides comin' in quick say goodbye when you
- see me sign now I'm crucified Crucify me the ground is feryile and the grass
- is green so many things to be seen so many bands to be heard just for once can
- I be ignored
- Little Sammy was a punk rocker
- you know his mother never understand him
- went to his room and smashed his Billy Bragg record
- didn't want him to hear that communist lecture
- Little Sammy was a punk rocker
- you know his mother tried to take him to war
- Sammy now the war is over now we're at the wars end
- Little Sammy was a punk rocker
- now it's time for you to leave home
- A cat lies awake when it sleeps
- was she conscious of her own miseries
- will the amount of her pain
- win her to enlightenment and set conscience free
- do you really wanna know what's happenin'
- do you really wanna know what's goin' on
- hey girl you better please take a look around
- you better explore your heart and find out for yourself
- Jenny Demilo you don't care nothin' about me
- I never realy had a reason
- never had a use for one before
- but now I know that there's now a prize
- but for the wise and the unwise
- do you really wanna know what's happenin'
- do you really wanna know what's goin' on
- hey girl you better please take a look around you explore your heart
- and find out for yourself
- Jenny Demilo you don't care nothin' about me
- I saw an old man on the street
- he was in a dumpster lookin' for somethin' to eat
- he moved so slow like a dyin' dream
- like a machinist who got caught in the machine
- I saw this lady and she was cryin'
- she said it's hard when someone you love is dyin'
- I saw this kid who was about 5 years old
- he was in the park all alone he was cold
- there's something coming around
- as wicked as it may seem
- as wicked as anything could be
- I know this girl she's barely alive
- she's all haggard she's only twenty-five
- she said she never had a friend before
- I said "hey girl I'll be your friend but who's keepin' score"
- I sawthis other little girl on the phone
- her mother comforts her from far from home
- the little girl was very hesitant
- her best friend lie dead on the pavement
- I always end up back on the hill
- lookin' down at the landfill
- I always go there when I can
- my friend Marty said Tim you're a lucky man
- Pick me back up just to throw me back down
- apoogies too like when you're up against the wall
- compassion heals while duplicity kills
- you say I'm different the only thing different is
- the way I feel about you
- Na na na na na na na na na na
- You moved up the ladder at a very rapid speed
- we moved methodically
- and calmly when you got to the top you see enemies
- if I knew back then what I know that
- it would all turn out like this
- I'd sit back and I'd watch you squirm
- cause you say I'm different
- the only thing different is
- the way i feel about you.....
