America Town lyrics

You were wrong
You were right
And you are gone Tonight
You were free So alive
You were wrong You were right

And you were down
You could see
And you wore hearts for me
And you were sharp Sharp as knives
You were wrong You were right

Shot down said you never had the chance
Took a ride on a suicide romance
Could have sworn there was somebody home

Over by the still she says,
“Man I think you better wait for tomorrow!
Take this pillow for your head
And I'll take you.�

Back against the beast I went
To feel her coming, hot for a follow up
Here comes the sun again…(to see me through)

On and on she takes me from you, my love
On and on she rakes me from you

Happily I leave her fed

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird…I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd…but don't be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed

I know I should be happy in your land
It's not all that wild to be me
Not that I want to be any other where
I know it's hell out there

Here in the borders of America Town
All of the dollies are spinning round and round and round
Hail to the chief
Let's just drag them all down
There's got to be a hero somewhere

Used to get annoyed at the fire and the flag
Now it just seems old to me

I don't know where to begin
I don't know how to get out there to see you
I don't know where to dig in.
I don't know how to get in there…to feel you

It's been to long and I'm about to be in time for me
It's been to long and I'm in time

Baby there's something about you that
I can hold on to
I'm going to hold on to that
Baby there's something about you that
I can hold on to

Jainy sells for three dimes a night
Morning helps her find her way blind
And I love her more than I can tell
Heaven help me now
Seems I found to find her just as well:

Jainy Yea:
Jainy Yea

Jainy takes me three times a night
Morning Saves me and I find my way blind
And she loves me more than she can tell
Heaven help her now
Seems she's found to find me just as well

Jainy Yea:
Jainy Yea:

MY SHIRT, MY HAT, MY BOOKS
A TRIP TO THE ZOO
MY COUCH, REMOTE, A LARGE COKE YEA
I'D GET ON MY KNEES, my GOD,
IF I COULD

I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING:
:TO BE YOU:

MY JOB, MY CAR, MY CASH
MY HOUSE ON THE HILL
MY PIANO I'D BURN TO ASHES (YEA)
I'D GET ON MY KNEES, my god
IF I COULD

I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING:
TO BE YOU:

MY VOICE, MY WORM, MY WIFE
A FIRST BORN OR TWO
I'D GIVE THE KNIFE, MY MIKE IF JUST,

I'm out of love again
And I need anyone
I'm out of love again
And I need everyone
I'm out. I'm in again
And I need some love
I'm out of touch again
And I need you babe

I'm out of love again
But I got your stuff
I'm out of love again
But I got your love

I'm out of wack again
And I need soft heat
I'm down to far to bend
And I need something sweet

I'm out of love again
But I got your stuff

Mr. Merry cries in his coffin
For days he says he can remember
And through the town the pallbearers sing old songs
Of a beautiful purple mountain
From every walk of life we've come to see the Last Great American

May I now present you the speaker,
�Friends he was a man of men, a man of gold…
He had a how do you say, ethical like sense�
That's when the President started to giggle

Put away your tears and your sleepy eyes
Put away that bullshit, Big boys they don't cry to their mama's
She'll be back soon
Put away your raincoat and make your bed
Take another bullet right to your head
We're going on a picnic and we'll get there soon

She says: Maybe it's over
He say's: there's plenty more fish in the sea
I say: Don't go away from me:

There's a crack in the hull
Where the penitents used to live
There's a crack in the hull
Where the Penitents used to live
And we can make it right if we row all night
Give all that we can give
There's a crack in the hull
Where the penitents used to live

There's a leak in the hold
Where the infantry used to sleep
There's a leak in the hold
Where the Infantry used to sleep

I Took her leaving like I did before
I Turned around and I asked for more
And she didn't even mean a thing to me

I Left my spirit at the chapel door
I Sailed around til I lost the war
And you didn't even think to send a thing

But I'm alright, alright, I feel alright
I never been better in my life
You know the score

I'm just fine, I'm fine, feeling fine

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm more than some pretty face beside a train
And it's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
'Bout a home I'll never see

It might sound absurd
But don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
