After-sex Madness I woke up 5 A.M. not knowing where I am to see another sunshine but pleading that it would've been in my own bed for once. I don’t know where I’ve been but I should've stayed in bed I got the same old blues, this aftersex madness. With more and more lonely hearts that say loneliness is dead, I miss London and I miss LA. So here's another morning hung-over as shit. Now roll home and be careful with the rain. Its moving quite fast, I want to get out. This is not a good ride for a man in this life. This terrible trip back home that I’m having trapped with animals and mortals and a priest at site. It's cool, stay calm, take a look around See if God or Lucifer are around. I don't see them anywhere here. They must have gone to fight for other sucker's soul man. Be calm now. Be calm, man. I wish that I would pray more, I wish that I believe. It's hard not having a belief when you feel like dying. And I fight with this microphone trying to write a song but I think I'm late again, my guitar seems to be dead.

Blue Rain Blues I feel that no one bleeds like me. No one will bleed this. I miss not loving a soul who I can write a song for. How can I stay sane when the rain is all I hear these days? So please if you see my baby girl, tell her I miss her so. Leave at least a light on here, I fear the rain now. And shut all the windows down, don't let more demons in. Cause creatures swing their wings and smash my words. They sing my songs. So please send my love to her when you see California. Won't you tell my girl to come see her baby? Won't you tell my girl to come save me now? Won't you tell my girl to come see her baby? and I'll give you my words and the speed inside my bag. Won't you tell my girl to come see her baby? Won't you tell my girl to come save me now? Won't you tell my girl to come see her baby? and I'll give you my words and the speed inside my bag. Won't you tell my girl to come see her baby? Won't you tell my girl to come save me now? Won't you tell my girl to come see her baby? and I'll give you my love and the speed inside my bag.

Encore 03:22
Encore How young and restless, this love we never learned. We fought for our prides, damn fights, almost everyday. I blamed it on lies, you blamed it on time. Let's not blame each other no more, it ain't worth the time. We've been on and off for so many years now. I just want you to know I just wanted to give you the world. You took your sweaters, you asked me where's my watch. I did lie to you but I swore one day, I would never lose that prize. We took the world out for a ride. We were young and our love grew strong, so strong. But the truth is I've finally let you go now, now, now and I couldn't end this without saying, I want to give you your world back. It's over now. You have to let it go.

Fever / 60 Minutes Never know how much I love you Never know how much I care When you put your arms around me I get a fever that's so hard to bear You give me fever when you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight Fever in the morning Fever all through the night. I heard 'em up and rolling back in '92. The news said it's not cool to be that cruel. They're on the wire and they felt like they're getting it all. You told your parents over burgers how the devil's won your friend's souls. You've grown up, you've told your children not to be poor. You think you've taught them well, you sent them to an Ivy league school. Your kids are out at night, they've told you "mom, I'm fine. I'm staying over Johnny's house, I'll call you tomorrow at 9’. Is that right, son? It cannot be Tuesday in L.A. Well, they saw Johnny B. with a bloody nose hitchhiking upon Hollywood and Vine humming his song. There's no need to be good in this day and age when everyone will turn their heads to you as soon as you'll start to fade. It's like hell time on earth. It's alright, man. Let's keep it going then, yeah? Aunt Nora's primos. Witch and zip pop. Booster's speed balls. I'll see you. I'll see you on the side brother. God's drunk in Reno and he's on the run. Seems he's stolen some souls and people want his blood. His photo's on the walls of every single corner shop. The Sunday's bells are ringing everyone get to church. Now you've given up, you blame it on the world. God's not answering the letters you sent him, he's drunk. This world is coming to an end and on your knees you pray and then go march Santa Monica to preach your words of hate. That's all you say ma' am Damn words of hate and what about peace? Well, the churches still stand. You go there to cry about the queers, the damn negroes and the bum on your side. Then you send your kids to war to fight for what's "right". You rather bury body bags than plant flowers in your back yard. It's not alright. Not alright. Here come the real words, you better pray. Here comes a new dawn. Well, oh shit. Here comes the new world, better prepare. Is it real close? It's here ma' am. Here come the real words, you better pray. Here comes a new dawn. Well, oh shit. Here comes the new world, better prepare. Is it real close? It's here ma' am. We who fear to love the perverse, will tear freely the shackles of life's vest.

Out of Control I was out in the city I was out in the rain I was feeling down hearted I was drinking again I was standing by the bridges Where the dark water flows I was talking to a stranger About times long ago I was young I was foolish I was angry I was vain I was charming I was lucky Tell me how have I changed Now I'm out Oh out of control Now I'm out Oh out of control Oh help me now And the girls in the doorway And the boys in the game And the drunks and the homeless They all know me And the police on the corner Give a nod and a wave As they point me To my final destination I was young I was foolish I was angry I was vain I was charming Feeling lucky Tell me how have I changed Now I'm out Oh out of control Now I'm out Oh out of control Oh help me now In the hotel I'm excited By the smile on her face But I wondered How was time Gonna change her I was young I was foolish I was angry I was vain I was charming I was out there Tell me how have I changed Now I'm out Oh out of control Oh I'm out Oh out of control

Love You Like Me Don't tell your man you ain't coming home tonight. I'll tell your worries they can take the night for a ride. That voodoo tattoo hawlin' up across your wrist. Damn, I love the way you drink. Mmnn. Just say you're sorry for that apology. That Stella fell let's just get another drink. Doubles please. I love your scar, your gold, acquainted with love. Just wait till we get home. You've played your cards right ma'am. And don't you worry I'm a make you feel safe. So drop your hearts and spades and make me love how you're insane. And tonight, nobody will love you, nobody will love you like me. Not like me. Nasty habits. Loaded tears that run dry. You don't give a shit what's going on now outside this bar. Feels like I'm home, drunk with love. My own reflection. Say no more. Just wait, babe. You've played your cards right ma'am. And don't you worry I'm a make you feel safe. So drop your hearts and spades and make me love how you're insane. And tonight, nobody will love you, nobody will love you like me. You've played your cards right ma'am. And don't you worry I'm a make you feel safe. So drop your hearts and spades and make me love how you're so insane. And tonight, nobody will love you, nobody will love you, nobody will love you, nobody will love you like me. Not like him. Nessuno ti amerà come me.
