Can't Stop

What's that sound, all the strokes are down
and it's just 3 chords and I don't want more
and the stance is wide its 4/4 time
and the fast eighth notes on the hi-hats fine
I just don't know but the fast tempo
makes me feel alive I wanna go go go!
and I just don't care, all the people stare
but I'm having fun while they just stand there
I can't stop
Can't stop
Can't stop
oh no
and it goes so fast that it just can't last
so i jump around and I have a blast
all the punk kids know that a punk rock show
is for good, good times not a fashion show
and i'm just here once so I'll have some fun
and I'll laugh and scream and just act dumb
I just don't care, all the people stare
I'm having fun while they just stand there
I can't stop
Can't stop
Can't stop
oh no
1-2-3-4

Dance All Night

Do you remember when we used to dance all night?
Throw your head back and laugh and scream alright
We'd fall into the bed and then
Sleep till noon and get some food and do it all again
Well I remember when you used to say you're mine
In your eyes, I was surprised you were not lying
We'd hold each other tight and then
Sleep till noon and get some food and do it all again
Oh why did it have to end?
We can't we just pretend?
That things are just like before
and then it won't hurt anymore
I remember when we used to dance all night
Throw your head back and laugh and scream alright
We'd hold each other tight and then
Sleep till noon and get some food and do it all again
Sleep till noon and get some food and do it all again
Do it all again
Do it all again

Tunnel Man

Running my mouth, I should bite my tongue
I wanna crawl back to where I came from
I can see it in your eyes, you know that I'm a ghoul
Believe me baby, I hate me too
Now that you see me, do you finally believe?
Now you know who I am
Do you want to get lost? Don' t turn back now
Come hide with me under the ground
This is my world, I live in shame
A never ending night shift, a hopeless refrain
Now that you see me, do you finally believe?
Now you know who I am.
It's just you and me, girl I like what i see
I've got eyes in the back of my head - whoah-oh
Now that you see me, do you finally believe?
Now you know who I am.

E.T. Pick me

This ship is sinking, almost out of sight
If this is living, there are better ways to die
Faded and fading but I smile despite
Looking in from the outside
ET pick me I'm calling out
Transmission to be free
Sticks and stones may break my bones
but goddamn it hurts to be alone
set me free... ET pick me
I fought hard but I'm swinging blind
These cuts and scrapes remind me that I'm alive
Looking for a sign in the stars tonight
So many memories I wanna leave behind
ET pick me I'm calling out
transmission to be free
Sticks and stones may break my bones
but goddamn it hurts to be alone
goddamn it hurts, I'm on my own
Set me free... ET pick me
ET pick me I'm calling out
transmission to be free
Sticks and stones may break my bones
but goddamn it hurts to be alone
goddamn it hurts, I'm on my own
goddamn it hurts, i feel so low
goddamn it hurts I wanna go...
ET pick me
ET pick me

Going to the park tonight
The kids are taking sides
Only one can win and the titles on the line
It happened at green square
Slap shot went in the air
Got him in the nose now its time to crack some bones
Well you better make sure I'm down
because i swing from the ground
You better make sure I'm down
I'll swing from the ground
Beat me to my back
Getaway sticks went slack
Foot sweeps just won't win and the hope is crashing in
Looks like you and the team
Beat the wheels off me
Well don't count me out if i'm bleeding on the ground
Well you better make sure I'm down
because i swing from the ground
You better make sure I'm down
I'll swing from the ground
Swinging from the ground
You better make sure I'm down
I'll swing from the ground
You better make sure I'm down
I'll swing from the ground
Swinging from the ground
Swinging from the ground
Swinging from the ground

Friday Night
01:46

I saw you standing there hanging with your friends
You see me stare and you looked back over again
I panicked and looked down
and then you'd drink and look around
and then I'd feel like such a clown
'cause it's Friday night
Head to the couch and I drink a beer that I found
start to relax and then look who sits down
I start to get uptight and then I feel that its alright
'cause you're just trying to bum a light
'cause it's Friday Night
Girl can't you see you're so groovy
I can't believe your talking to me
1-2-3-4
Music's up loud so you're yelling in my ear
This scenes so lame come on lets get out of here
You know I think that you're right I said
and you squeezed my hand real tight
and everything gonna be alright
'cause it's Friday night
You know I think that you're right I said
and you squeezed my hand real tight
and everything gonna be outta sight
'cause it's Friday night
'cause it's Friday night
'cause it's Friday night
'cause it's Friday night

All Summer (In a Day)
02:52
|
|

|
I miss the ringing in my ears
Counting lines on the highway as the stars disappear
We raced the falcon all through the night
Chasing our dreams- let the raven fly
I'll meet you at the Hi-Way cafe
In the heart of the fart- the rocky gateway
Three chords with the Indian Police
Down in the basement- disturbing the peace
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
Danny do you copy? Whats the plan?
Why are you still lying there wrapped in your afghan?
Lets go back to where we begun
and for a minute we'll stare at the sun
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
We were thick as thieves,
going down the drain
the only place to be
never be here again
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
All summer in a day
All summer in a day

Burnin' Dirt
02:19

We were burning dirt all night, burning dirt all day
There's smoke in this valley, we're gonna keep it that way
Machines keep on churning, crushing the ore
Like a fire breathing dragon spitting lava out the door
Can't stop, won't stop, we were first
Can't stop, won't stop, burning dirt
Can't stop, won't stop, burning dirt
Burning dirt, burning dirt, burning dirt
One thousand degrees, it gets hotter than hell
When the ventilation gives out we hear the alarm bells
They call it a muster, try to save our souls
Send us back to feed the dragon, gotta patch up the holes
Can't stop, won't stop, we were first
Can't stop, won't stop, burning dirt
Can't stop, won't stop, burning dirt
Burning dirt, burning dirt, burning dirt
I don't need to tell you, we'll allways believe
Can you hear that sound? We're a smelter town- it's the only place I wanna be.
I don't need to tell you, it's in the air we breathe
Can you hear that sound? we're the Smelters now- and that's alright with me.
Can't stop, won't stop, we were first
Can't stop, won't stop, burning dirt
Can't stop, won't stop, burning dirt
Burning dirt, burning dirt, burning dirt

I'm driving down Highway 28 'cause I
Got a date and they'll wait
All night I never felt
so right they've got a beer
waiting for me but it'll take
more than three, I'm getting revved
I'm ready to go the music's loud
I'm not driving slow and you'll see
I'm only happy when I'm rockin' and rollin'
when me and my friends are hanging out
do you like to rock and roll too?
I'm only happy when I'm rockin' and rollin'

We just got together and its 7 PM
Don't gotta work it's a week of jammin
Can't wait to rock n roll with you
It seems like forever since our last crusade
It only gets stronger the more create
This crew is special no doubt for me and you
Hey we're the Smelters here we go
Not gonna hear us on the radio ... GO!
Yeah we're the Smelters here we go
Not gonna hear us on the radio ... GO!
Its 4 o'clock and we're six beers in
Laughing so hard, don't know where to begin
The music becomes second - let me explain
We've known each other for thirty some years
when we get together and have a few beers
Nothing will get in the way of this gang
Hey we're the Smelters here we go
Not gonna hear us on the radio ... GO!
Yeah we're the Smelters here we go
Not gonna hear us on the radio ... GO!
