Man Downtown

I never said that I am Al Capone
I make my living doing what I know, that’s building all I can
Mix use living with cheap floor plans.
The man’s been living in a funky shack
It’s downtown living but he’ll have to pack his things and go
I’m warming up the bulldozer
I love it when they run, I’m moving in
I love it when they run, I’m tearing it down
I love it when they run, you can’t stay no more
It’s too expensive
Go on and get
Like Rocky said just know your role.
The bowling alley with the Schlitz and smoke
I’ll gut it out and put a Target for all the wanted crowd
The ones who can afford to be around
The man’s been living in a funky shack
Downtown living but he’ll have to pack his things and go
The Kosher fun is over
I love it when they run, and I’m moving in
I love it when they run, and I’m tearing it down now
I love it when they run, you can’t stay no more
It’s too expensive
Go on and get
I don’t pretend, I don’t rope a dope.
I bulldoze. I bulldoze.
You don’t know nothing if you say so it’s a lie.
You know this town is going down down down on my dime honey.
I love it when they run, and I’m moving in
I love it when they run, and I’m tearing it down now
I love it when they run, you can’t stay no more
It’s too expensive
Go on and get
Like Rocky said just know your role and shut your mouth!

I heard the temperatures high, that’s just too bad
Not like you had to save up to get out now
Everybody knows you go up like a ballon
You figured out the burnings not like fire
Squat down and squirt it while we lay on the tile
Squirt it up
My mainlines incubated
If you’re gassed up
Might wanna douche
Whoa it’s time to go out, Let’s have for drinks and dinner
Hang with the Blackflower crowd, and in the flashbulb
Blowing clouds inside we’re all faceless and mute
It’s starts to rain, my insides feel like fire
Let’s hurry back to the hotel tile
Squirt me up, pass me some elevation
Placebo or not, just one more Boof!
In the hotel lobby I’m flying. Got my wallet back in my heart.
I’m so happy in spite of just falling, I’ve been waiting for this hope so long.
It lifts me up
Squirt me up, give me some elevation
It’s enough, just one more Boof!

Why You No Hold Me

Why you so cold on me
Why you never there
Why you never call on me darlin’ like you used to do
You know I don’t think it’s fair
Why you never hope
Why you never care
Didn’t get all wanted for did you?
In solitude
You know it’s not there
Didn’t you see me?
Didn’t you see me here?
I’ve been out alone
Nursing all my tears
And if you hear
I’m in the kitchen
I’m in the kitchen cracking ice
I awoke
was full dark, hear no voices. I’ve been forgotten.
And there’s a heat, a steady heat
I feel the glow
I feel a heartbeat, I feel a heartbeat
It’s getting louder, it’s getting clearer
I feel a heartbeat, from within
I know it’s mine now, and I’m here
I standup free and I’m here
I can feel myself getting loud and clear
You can get up and put me in the oven
Pick me up put me in the oven
You can cook me at 425
Cook me medium rare alive
I feel a heartbeat, I know I’m here
You cut me open, can’t ignore me now
I’m here
Why you no hold me
Why you never there
Why you never call on me darling
Like you used to do
You know
I do not think it’s fair
Why you never hope
Why you never there pal
There’s still time to change the mood darling
It’s alright, it’s okay
You’re just not there
I know
Time rolls on
Life goes by
Through it all
Why don’t ya hold me?
I’ll thank ya.

that is the essence of the blues, often with a hint of the ragged, seat-of-the-pants spontaneity that defined early punk.
