Raised On Joni Mitchell

My guitar kills your mama
But it always beats the charge
Imma stooge named ziggy, see
And my pals are all from mars
See the bassist space your face
Yeh the band carries the weight
And the kids they are all dead
When the drums kick in their head
(Chorus)
My father was a preacher
Man my sister, Ray, I miss her and
I got a loaded pistol
I was raised on joni mitchell
My guitar cries so gently
So hang on then he kissed me
Born wild, you die crazy
Whole life spent only bleeding
I'm man not well respected and
not follower of fashion man
bad moon i was born under
sed rock n roll is for fascists
(Chorus)
I'm a son not fortunate
i hear your mother's lament
ain't sayin that yr pretty
At bus stop in Fist City
All these bad vibrations
They'll talk about the passions
Our soulless inspiration
Rock n roll is for fascists
(Chorus)

I Tell U What

U ask me all those questions
And i tell u all those lies
Yr skin is pretty thin
Gets thicker all the time
Everytime i open yr mouth
We can hardly speak
drop a deuce off a bridge
And we wind up in the creek
I tell u one thing what
I tell u two things what
I tell...three what
I dont say anything at all
I'll tell you what you wanna hear
