On Your Radio
Ex-friends, ex-lovers and enemies
Ive got your case in front of me today
All sewn up
Ex-bosses you never let me be
I got your names and your numbers filed away
Ive grown up
See me
Hear me
Dont you know you cant get near me
You can only hope to hear me on your radio
On your radio
Youre gonna hear me on your radio.
Ex-teachers still coming through to me
Tough kids dont stop trying to kick me to the ground
I dont care
Go on just do what you do to me
You look so sick when youre pushing me around
Youre nowhere

Hell Of A Town
Its a hell of a town
Theres smoke coming up through the holes in the ground
Its a hell of a town
Plenty of devils for taking you down
Any time of night and day
Its a hell of a town
Getting drunk on the tears of a clown
Its a hell of a town
Steppin out in a bulletproof gown
So get out of my goddamn way
Im walking here
Im talking here
Its a hell of a town
Swimming out where the ships run aground
Its a hell of a town
Always room on the merry-go-round
So step up and be damned today
Im walking here
Im talking here

Jumpin With Symphony Sid
Jumpin with my boss sid in the city
Jumpin with my boss sid in the city
Mr. president of that dj committee
Were gonna be up all night gettin ready
We want you to spin the sounds from the city
Far down in the land thats real real pretty
Let everything go real crazy over jazz
Make everything go real crazy over jazz
Let everything cool for me and my baby
I dont wanna think were listening too lazy
Its gotta be pressburg cheering all the basie
Its gotta get it all set right clear on the eighty
Let it roll
Let it roll

Be My Number Two
Wont you be my number two
Me and number one are through
There wont be too much to do
Just smile when I feel blue
And theres not much left of me
What you get is what you see
Is it worth the energy
I leave it up to you
And if you got something to say to me
Dont try to play your funny games on me
I know that its really not fair of me
But my hearts seen too much action
And every time I look at you
Youll be who I want you to
And Ill do what I can do
To make a dream or two come true
If youll be my
If you be my number two

Stay
Here darkness never quite descends
Only the toughest stars
Hang with neon friends
Over neon candy stores
Till the bitter end
Oh madness
Waits for me someday
Raising a champagne glass
Down some dark alleyway
Down some mean magnetic street
Stopping me to say...
You could live anywhere you want to
Give me one reason to stay
Here monsters walk the earth again
Mermaids in black and gold
Perfume and cocaine
Rising from a teeming sea
Asking me again...
You could have anyone you want to
Give me one reason to stay

Statue Of Liberty
The first time I saw you standing in the water
You must have been all of a thousand feet tall
Nearly naked - unashamed like herods daughter
Your love was so big
It made new york look small
Youve been the subject of so many dreams
Since I climbed your torso
Oh!
My statue of liberty
Boo boo
Impaled on your hair
What do you do
Do do to me
Boo boo
I leaned right over to kiss your stoney book
A little jealous of the ships with whom you flirt
A billion lovers with their cameras
Snap to look and in my fantasy
I sail beneath your skirt

Cancer
Everything
Everything gives you cancer
Everything
Everything gives you cancer
Theres no cure, theres no answer
Everything gives you cancer
Dont touch that dial
Dont try to smile
Just take this pill
Its in your file
Dont work hard
Dont play hard
Dont plan for the graveyard
Remember -
Everything
Everything gives you cancer
Everything
Everything gives you cancer
Theres no cure, theres no answer
Everything gives you cancer

Shape In A Drape
There's a guy going round the town
You got to check what he is puttin' down
Just one look you know the story is great
He's the guy the chicks love
And the cats can't hate
He's a shape in a drape
A shape in a drape
He's a shape in a drape
And you can dig that he is stookin'
Now some say he's a clipster and a tailor's toad
And he could hype a miserman for all his gold
Some say he's a hipster and some say nix
But everyone's solid when he gets his kicks
He's a shape in a drape
A shape in a drape
He's a shape in a drape
And he is sure alive and kickin'

Just Because...
Cant drink the water
Cant breathe the air
Cant hide down in the sewer
cause theres crocodiles down there
My hovel needs a barricade
My pants need an alarm
Need some non-alcoholic whiskey
And some giuliani charm
Just because youre paranoid
Dont mean theyre not out to get ya
Dont look at me on the subway
And I wont look at you
Dont touch me with your greasy gloves
And syphilitic flu
Brain cancer causes cell phones
Brain damage causes drugs
Im staying off the streets cause
Gangwar causes thugs
Just because youre paranoid
Dont mean theyre not out to get ya
