Menace To Sobriety

Written by ugly kid joe

Well, they keep on taking my heart
And they keep on taking my soul
They keep taking an inch when i give them a mile
And now it seems it's been a while since anyone smiled
They don't know me
They don't know me
But my name is on the highway sign, never look behind
All those troubles are gone, nothing left but to run
So meet me down and don't be shy
A place where we can hide
There ain't nothing to fear
There ain't no-one back here
But you and i and these cloudy skies
So it's time to leave our home
And see the faces we've out-grown
Through the years we've kept our backs to the wind
So long, farewell, good-bye my friend

I'm frank sinatra in a rock 'n roll band
I'm a hevayweight demon with a heavyweight plan
I'm uncle sam with a joint in my mouth
And my v8's floored when i headed down south
This ain't hell, sure ain't heaven
Pull on over to the seven eleven
Stop rich now, pontiac here
Big blue love budweiser beer
Can't you see them
Can't you see them
Gi joe i'm stretch armstrong
Every blade of grass i'm the water in the bong
I'm aqua man i'm the devil with a grin
Ambidextrous now 'cause i use both limbs
East palo alto, age 26
Full love circle not one love missed
A1 liquor, berone's too
Crown royal, no. 502
Can't you see them
Can't you see them
August 27th on a calendar scale
And on this day i went to jail
The blue man on my trip and on my ride
See i gotta go and will i survive
I'm the man and i do and i don't
I'm the man and i will and i won't
I'm the man and i could not lie
Why most should live now some should die

My superstars were laced up tight
And all the sinners were gathered in white
The pearly gates were opened up wide
And the lord must have seen me with his big red eyes
So i stepped out to the clouds
The holy father was getting down
And as i ordered a round of drinks
He said i got a little story tell me what you think
Moses used to sniff the lines
Noah used to rock the boat sometimes
Mary used to get undone
Jesus rode a harley davidson
All the angels were gathered around
Leather boots and lace night gowns
And one started to kiss my feet
She said the lord got a red light on at every street
My superstars were laced up tight
And all the sinners were gathered in white
The pearly gates were opened up wide
And the lord must have seen me with his big red eyes

God, please push me in the right direction
God, i'm hoping that you'll understand
God, i'm trying to make amends now
God, i'm asking for your guiding hand
Everybody's got the wrong opinion
Everybody says what's on their mind
Everybody's got the wrong tradition
Everybody pray to the man
God, i'm reading in your holy books now
God, i'm singing and i'm not afraid
God, i'm looking for the only way out now
God, i'm hoping that i can be saved
Everybody's got the wrong religion
You won't say what's on your mind
Some won't hear why others listen
Everybody pray to the man
Why don't you ever answer questions
Now my faith is slipping away
I'm looking in a different direction
Believing is the only way
Everybody's got their own tradition
(everybody's got the wrong religion)
Everybody's got their own salvation
(everybody's got the wrong submission)
Everybody's got their own religion
(everybody's got the wrong tradition)
Everybody pray to the man

Let the burning bridges tumble down
Let the water come and flood the ground
Burn a hole into the southern sky
I only wanna be walking by your side
When i see tomorrow i see you there
When i look around i'll see you everywhere
Your face is etched into my mind
When it's all said and done
I'm feeling like the milkman's son
Let your darkest spirits fly away
Come again but you won't come today
Spend the last time of my worthless job
I only wanna be walking by your side
I'm feeling like the milkman's son
Said i'm feeling like the milkman

Hey, do you finally see it
Wait, we are there
Fate, refuse to believe it
May, i don't care
Ten outta ten die
Framed, we'll try to escape it
Safe, it ain't fair
Wait, we'll try to achieve it
May, i don't care
Ten outta ten
Let me sleep, let me sleep
See me struggle and hold on to my soul
Fallen faster and don't know which way i'm gonna go
Ten outta ten die
