Sex & Money 03:32
Sex & Money. If you’re living fast, then you’re dying young Oh, the frightening man that you’ve become Goddamn that smoke in your hand You sing a sinfully bland rendition of "Roxanne" Oh yeah, you don’t choose when you’re born, honey This is generation sex & money No, you don’t choose when you breathe, honey, yeah We got a generation of sex & money If you're living fast, are you living in fear? False liberty chants its cheer Goddamn this tear in my eye All of the flat notes that took me for a fool So I said Goddamn that smoke in your hand You sing sinfully bland! Oh yeah, you don’t choose when you’re born, honey This is generation sex & money No, you don’t choose when you breathe, honey, yeah We got a generation "sex & money" Oh yeah, you don’t choose when you’re born, honey This is generation sex & money No, you don’t choose when you alive, honey It's a generation of sex & money

Mojave Rain 03:52
Mojave Rain. "They no need no control Gonna bet a dime, little Suzie, gonna bet your soul" Checkin’ in With a little plan Been cooking it up through the summer Ain’t done what you can Good God, it’s too late Gonna get caught up in a downpour in the Mojave rain Hey, man! It's mysteriously bedlam in the Mojave rain Hurry, hurry! Can you run like the wind? He got it all, little Mama, with a soul blacker than sin Scurry, Scurry, don't you dilly dally Cause darkening clouds, are moving over the crowd Good God, it’s too late Gonna get caught up in the downpour in a Mojave rain Hey man! It’s mysteriously bedlam in the Mojave rain There's a spirit in the sky, bringing angels to life And a tsunami of pain And so, the sound of the tune, forever reminding of you And your Mojave Rain Good God, it's too late, Got caught up in a downpour, in the Mojave Rain Say son, did you make the grade? Save a brother down with a barricade, when there was rain in the Mojave? Was it oh, so D.F.A, with a window wide on 32? So the sound of the tune, forever reminding of you

Dilute 04:57
Dilute. Laying bodies on the news They say they’ll know how many soon Checkin' my six along the avenue Dilute, dilute. Ain’t you gonna dilute me now? Ain’t you gonna dilute? Panic in the U.K Reminisce of Morrissey He came out of the woodwork A lone wolf on the scene Treason of the Manc in May Claims one for every day Panic in the U.K Working like it’s a machine Scattered corpses on the news They say they’ll know how many soon Running down the London Bridge in June Dilute, dilute. Ain’t you gonna dilute me now? Ain’t you gonna dilute? Gimme, gimme chaos They be runnin’ they be gunnin’ Panic in Iran, man, wouldn’t a week be something! Without this Innocent blood spilling in the news Looking like the war machine refused So they’re coming for me and they’re coming for you Dilute, dilute. Take a little time to check the clues They’ve become the poet’s muse Checkin' my six along the avenue Dilute, dilute.

Good Reason 03:48
Good Reason. The dew of the dawn a top frozen Kelly green Seems the cool of the night sketched a gaudy August scene Puts an ache in my mind I don’t know, is leaving a good enough reason to get high again? Sugar, be mine, all mine, tell the world we’re leaving And we've got good reason Souls in the wind howling songs that need to be heard Their words, here nor there, I can’t figure them out Oh no, no one figures it out Oh no, no one figures it out That’s an ache in my mind I don’t know, is leaving a good enough reason to get high again? Sugar, be mine, all mine, tell the world we’re leaving And we've got good reason We've got good reason, man... I saw your headline, I don't think I want to read about it I saw the headline, but I don't want to know Press and print more pollution Spoon-feed us dilution I saw your headline, I don't want to know I saw your headline, I don't want to know Press and print more pollution Spoon-feed us dilution, yeah Puts an ache inside of my mind, I don’t know, is leaving good enough of reason to get stoned? Sugar, be mine, for the rest of time! Tell them all we’re leaving, We’ve got good reason, don't they know? We’ve got good reason, don' t they know? We’ve got good reason, man. I saw your headline, I don't want to know I saw your headline, I don't want to know Press and print more pollution Spoon-feed us dilution, yeah I saw your headline, I don't want to know I saw your headline, I don't want to know Press and print more pollution Spoon-feed us dilution, yeah

95 Miles 03:01
95 Miles. 95 miles with nothing but a stereo Drifting lyrics of the wise Fill my head with some premise of a compromise Watch the years fly by But the road comes to an end.... Count them away Spending your days Stompin’ your feet to the hey, hey, hey Swingin' in time Kicking my feet to the do do do 95 miles with nothing but a skyline, I see creeping shadows of the night 95 Miles up to some paradise Has got me feeling just fine Again, the road comes to an end Count it away Spending my days Stompin’ my feet to the hey, hey, hey Swayin’ in time Kicking my feet to the do do do In 95 miles...
