Stop Draggin' My Heart Around

Baby you come knocking on my front door
Same old line you used to use before
I said, "yeah, well what am i supposed to do?"
I didn't know what i was getting into
So you've had a little trouble in town
Now you're keeping some demon down
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
It's hard to think about what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all
I know you really want to tell me good-bye
I know you really want to be your own girl
Baby, you could never look me in the eye
Yeah, you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
There's people running 'round loose in the world
Ain't got nothin' better to do

Waiting For Tonight

I went walking down the boulevard
Past the skateboards and the beggars
I was out looking in the windows
Just out walking, letting my mind roam
If she hung around too much I might take her for granted
But when I was away, she seemed an angel
The only one who really cared about me
The only one without an angle
For so long Ive been lonely
Now Im too weak to fight
Ive been waiting for tonight
Ive been waiting for tonight
(good night my love, sleep tight my love)
Yes and I had a little time to kill
As I crossed the parking lot
And I was feeling lucky to have a place to go
Yeah my nerves were feeling shot
For so long Ive been weary
There was no end in sight
Ive been waiting for tonight

On The Street

I saw you walking down the street with him
You know I almost couldve died
I didnt know you had a second friend
I never thought you woulda lied
I guess somebody else has knocked upon your door
See somebody elses socks lying on your floor
And I saw you on street with him
You know I almost coulda died
I never said that I was all that choice
I never said I was a dream
I didnt think youd pull that second voice
It seems a little too cheap
I see somebody elses smile cut across your face
I see somebody else has taken you some other place
Yeah I saw you on the street with him
You know I really coulda died
I didnt know you had another man, I didnt know,
I thought I was in
I didnt know you had another plan, I didnt know
I thought I was in on the action

Ways To Be Wicked

Honey tell me why you smile
When you see me hurt so bad
Tell me what I did to you babe
That could make you act like that
Yes Ive been your fool before babe
And I probably will again
She aint afraid to let me have it
You aint afraid to stick it in
Yeah you know so many ways to be wicked
But you dont know one little thing about love
Yeah I can take a little pain
I could hold it pretty well
I can watch your little eyes light up
When youre walkin me through hell
Yes Ive been your fool before, babe
And I probably will again
She aint afraid to let me have it
You aint afraid to stick it in
Yeah you know so many ways to be wicked
But you dont know one little thing about love

I Need To Know

Well the talk on the street
Says you might go solo
A good friend of mine saw you leavin by the back door
I need to know(I need to know)
I need to know(I need to know)
If you think youre gonna leave
Then you better say so
I need to know(I need to know)
I need to know(I need to know)
Because I dont know how long
I can hold on
And if your makin me wait
If youre leadin me on
I need to know(I need to know)
I need to know(I need to know)
Who woulda thought
That youd fall for his line
All of a sudden its
Me on the outside
I need to know(I need to know)

Zombie Zoo

All down the street they're standin' in line
With white lipstick and one thing on their mind
Hey little freak with the lunch pail purse
Underneath th e paint you're just a little girl
Dancin' at the zombie zoo, dancin' at the zombie zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the zombie zoo
Cute little dropout, how come you pack a rod
Is your mother in a clinic ? has your father got no job ?
Sometimes you're so impulsive,
You shaved off all you're hair
You look like boris karloff and you don't even care
You're dancin' at the zombie zoo,
Dancin' at the zombie zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do is
Dance down at the zombie zoo
She disappears at sunrise, i wonder where
She goes until the night
Comes fallin' down again
She shows up with her friends half-alive

Shadow Of A Doubt (A Complex Kid)

shadow of a doubt (a complex kid)"

There goes my baby, there goes my only one.
I think she loves me, but she dont wanna let on.
Yeah, she likes to keep me guessin,
Shes got me on the fence with that little bit of mystery,
Shes a complex kid and shes always been so hard to figure out.
Yeah, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt.
Sometimes at night I wait around til she gets off.
She dont like workin, she says she hates her boss,
But shes got me askin questions, shes got me on the fence
With that little certain something, shes a complex kid,
And shes always been so hard to get around.
She always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt.
Just a shadow of a doubt, she says it keeps me runnin.
Im trying to figure out if shes leadin up to something
And when shes dreamin, sometimes she sings in french,
But in the morning, she dont remember it.

I Dont Know What To Say To You

I got a bottle in a paper bag, I can hear a little country rag
Dollar down, dollar a day, yeah I got a little one-eyed play
I opened up the windows, yeah Ive been caught cold
Here, have a little no doze, can you hear me in the headphones?
Road turkeys in the lobby, baby this is just a hobby
Just a little thin report, yeah Ive been caught short
But I cant get past how do you do?
I dont know what to say to you
Dancin in the l.a. rain, midnight blue and tangerine
Here, let me hold a cigarette, baby I just got time to bet now
I know its just casino talk but I hear you got a three foot walk
Flowin cold and hot, bankin on a long shot at a transcendental continental
The initials on the door, baby are you keepin score?
Oh I cant get past how do you do?
I dont know what to say to you
Phoenix stars in the saddle, tryin to deal with ? ? ? ? cattle
Told proud george to call the gunner, scooter rubyll put him under
Solo jack and gypsy jade, runnin through the everglades
Tryin to catch that high plain, getem touch of fair exchange
Chinese kite, folding chairs, lift on where you take the stairs

Depot Street

I live on the west side, by the county reservoir
And she lives down on depot street, behind the city hall
Behind the city hall
Her fathers name is macintosh, her mothers name is pearl
And they live down on depot street, shes my little girl
Shes my little girl
Down on depot street, Im gonna see my baby
Depot street, Im gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall
We aint got no money, we dont have no car
We stay down on depot street, just dancin in the park
Dancin in the park
And her sister doesnt like me, but I dont really care
I know the only reason is she wants me for herself
She wants me for herself
Down on depot street, Im gonna see my baby
Depot street, Im gonna see my girl
Depot street, baby, baby, baby
Depot street, behind the city hall
