Cigarettes And Valentines
I don't wanna go back home
I don't wanna kiss goodnight
Let us paralyze this moment
'til it dies
To the end of the earth
under the valley of the stars
There's a car crashing
deep inside my heart
Take a ride to the avenues
across the Great Divide
There's a siren screaming
"I'm alive", it cries
Red alert is the color
of your paper valentines
Intertwined on this moment
passing by
Take a ride through the avenues
across the Great Divide
There's a siren screaming
"I'm alive", it cries
Red alert is the color
of your paper valentines
Intertwined on this moment
passing by
Oh, come away with me tonight
with cigarettes and valentines
Cigarettes and Valentines!
So, come away with me tonight
with cigarettes and valentines
Oh, come away with me tonight
with cigarettes and valentines
Cigarettes and Valentines!
Waiting
(I love this song. It's my favourite song for all time, The Video is ACE!!)
I've been waiting a long time
for this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all
Downtown lights will be shining
On me like a new diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
No one can touch me now
And I can't turn my back
It's too late ready or not at all
Well I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up
Dawning of a new era
Calling... don't let it catch ya falling
Ready or not at all
So close enough to taste it
Almost... I can embrace this
Feeling...on the tip of my tongue
Well I'm so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars
Shey hey hey
I've been waiting a lifetime
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all
Dumbstruck
Color me stupid
Good luck
You're gonna need it
Where I'm going if I get there at all
Wake uuuuuuuuuup
Better thank your lucky stars
Wake Me Up When September Ends
Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Like my father's come to pass, seven years has gone so fast.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars;
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.
As my memory rests,
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Ring out the bells again.
Like we did when spring began.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars;
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.
As my memory rest,
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Like my father's come to pass.
Twenty years has gone so fast.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Wake me up,
When September ends.
Wake me up,
When September ends....
HomeComing
I. The Death of St. Jimmy
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
My heart is beating from me,
I am standing all alone,
Please call me only if you are coming home,
Waste another year flies by,
Waste a night or two,
You taught me how to live
In the streets of shame,
Where you've lost your dreams in the rain,
There's no signs of hope,
The stems and seeds of the last of the dope,
There's a glow of light,
The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night,
Bearing gifts and trust,
A fixture in the city of lust,
"What the hells your name,
What's your pleasure what is your pain?
Do you dream too much?
Do you think what you need is a crutch?"
In the crowd of pain, St. Jimmy comes without any shame,
He says "We're fucked up,
But we're not the same,
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame"
Jimmy died today
He blew his brains out into the bay,
In the state of mind its my own private suicide
II. East 12th Street
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Well nobody cares,
Well nobody cares,
Does anyone care if nobody cares?
Well nobody cares,
Well nobody cares,
Does anyone care if nobody cares?
Jesus filling out paperwork now,
At the facility on east 12th Street,
He's not listening to a word now,
He's in his own world,
And he's daydreaming
He'd rather be doing something else now,
Like cigarettes and coffee with the underbelly,
His life's on the line with anxiety now,
'Cuz she had enough,
And he had plenty
Somebody get me out of here,
Anybody get me out of here,
Somebody get me out of here,
Get me the fuck right out of here
So far away,
I don't want to stay,
Get me outta here right now,
I just want to be free,
Is there a possibility?
Get me outta here right now,
This life-like dream ain't for me!
III. Nobody Likes You (Written and sung by Mike Dirnt)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
I fell asleep while watching Spike TV,
After 10 cups of coffee,
And you're still not here,
Dreamin of a song,
But something went wrong,
And you can't tell anyone,
'Cuz no one's here
Left me here alone,
And I should've stayed home,
After 10 cups of coffee,
I'm thinking,
Where'd you go?
Nobody likes you,
Everyone left you,(Where'd You go)
They're all out without you,
Havin' fun,(Where'd you go)
Everyone left you,
Nobody likes you,(Where'd you go)
They're all out without you,
Havin' fun,(Where'd you go)
(go, go ,go)
IV. Rock And Roll Girlfriend (Written and sung by Tre Cool)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Tre: Geez.....*sigh*...
-----
I got a rock n roll band,
I got a rock n roll life,
I got a rock n roll girlfriend,
And another ex-wife
I got a rock n roll house,
I got a rock n roll car,
I play the shit out the drums,
And I can play the guitar
I got a kid in New York,
I got a kid in the Bay,
I haven't drank or smoked nothin',
In over 22 days,(dont wanna be an american idiot!)
So get off of my case
off of my case
off. of. my. case!
V. We're Coming Home Again
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Here they come marching down the street, (ooh,ooh)
Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat, (ooh,ooh)
Coming back from the edge of town,
Underneath their feet
The time has come and it's going nowhere, (ooh,ooh)
Nobody ever said that life was fair now, (ooh,ooh)
Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear,
In the summer heat
The world is spinning round and round,
Out of control again,
the 7-11 to the fear of breaking down,
So send my love a letterbomb,
And visit me in hell,
We're the ones going
Home.
We're coming home again
Home.
We're coming home again
I started fuckin' running,
as soon as my feet touched ground,
We're back in the barrio,
And to you and me, that's Jingletown thats
Home.
We're coming home again,
Home.
We're coming home again,
Home.
We're coming home again,
Home.
We're coming home again,
Home.
We're coming home again,
Home.
We're coming home again,
Home.
We're coming home again,
Home.
We're coming home again,
(written and Sung by mike dirnt)
Nobody likes you,
Everyone left you,
They're all out without you,
Havin' fun!
