It was so long ago
I can’t remember when
I don’t recall
‘Cause I was younger then
In the concrete jungle
I was a soldier man
Try to get a show off
The promoter man
In the city
What time’s the show go down?
In the city
How will you make it down?
I got no problem with
Your drunken crazy ass
Just chip in for
Some fucking beer and gas
We’ll always have times like this
Gotta live in the moment ‘cause the future’s never clear
No way of knowing if we’ll still be here
Can’t live in the past ‘cause the future’s much too near
Well, I’m older now
Still feel the same way
Gonna play a show
‘Til my dying day
Hit the dance floor
There’s no time to waste
Gotta move
‘Cause we still have faith
Who could have known
How much things would change
We never gave up
We never walked away
For all those people who
Could never understand
Just shut the fuck up
And listen to the band

I Could Relax

I could relax
If I wasn’t always singing the blues
I could relax
If I would stop reading the news
I could relax
If the money wasn’t so tight
I could relax
If I went out and saw you tonight
I could relax…
I never thought it would end up this way
My nerves are shot and my mind’s all frayed
Neurotic psychosis isn’t so funny
I’ve got to move, so dance with me honey
I could relax
If the world would give me a break
I could relax
If you gave as much as you take
I could relax
If the past wasn’t so haunting
I could relax
If the world wasn’t so daunting
I could relax…

This Cycle

We’ve got to break this cycle
Gotta break this cycle somehow
We’ve got to break this cycle
Gotta break this cycle somehow
Listen, they’re gonna ask ‘What ‘cha gonna do?’
‘Cause your dreams aren’t anything you’re gonna build a life with
‘Take my advice, you’re gonna think twice
When you don’t have anything to fall back on’
It’s all part of a trap
Enrolling you in an insta-institution
Made by design
Makes you a slave to your wage for fifty fucking years now!
We’ve got to break this cycle
Gotta break this cycle somehow
We’ve got to break this cycle
Gotta break this cycle somehow
You’ve got a choice, but you’d better not choose
The path they tell you not to go down
Do what you’re told, conform to society
Or you’ll never have a chance at the fucking brass ring
Another system, set up to make money
Under the guise of being good for you
Lies of this size, so hard to see through
But you’re the only one who knows what’s best for you!
We’ve got to break this cycle
Gotta break this cycle somehow
We’ve got to break this cycle
Gotta break this cycle somehow

Bright Moonlight

I can smell the shit
Piled up in my city
I take a look around
I wonder who's the enemy?
I don't know who
Who I can trust
When the city's all I've got -
and the city's gone bust
It's a race now
To be the enemy
Just look around
They'll tell you who to envy
What have you got to lose
When they take it all away
This city's all I've got -
and the city's gone insane
So I'm heading downtown
In the bright moonlight
Gonna have a few drinks
Til' the feeling's alright
The jungle sleeps
with one eye open at night
I'll see you downtown
In the bright moonlight
Gonna sing a few songs
Get the feeling just right
When the city sleeps
The darkness creeps
Gotta find a way to keep me warm
Tonight
Sidewalk scams
The party never ends
The people sleep on benches
While you hustle to exams
The future's bleak
If this is all we've got
The leaders of tomorrow
Are not the ones we've sought
There's hope now
To fight the enemy
Just look around
To find your brethren
Don't listen to
The lies that they say
We're where we've always been
And we'll never go away!
So I'm heading downtown
In the bright moonlight
Gonna have a few drinks
Til' the feeling's alright
The jungle sleeps
with one eye open at night
I'll see you downtown
In the bright moonlight
Gonna sing a few songs
Get the feeling just right
When the city sleeps
The darkness creeps
Gotta find a way to keep me warm
Tonight
So I'm heading downtown
In the bright moonlight
Gonna have a few drinks
Til' the feeling's alright
This jungle sleeps
with one eye open tonight
I'll see you downtown
In the bright moonlight
Gonna sing a few songs
Get the feeling just right
When the city sleeps
The darkness creeps
Gotta find a way to keep me warm
Gotta find a way to keep me warm
Gotta find a way to keep us warm
Tonight
