Lyrics of The Big Cheese
Whiskey Bottle -
Whiskey Bottle running down my spine,
an odious breath of a life so fine.
Well, a breath is less when I feel depressed,
leaning on the corner of my slanted shed.
I'm gonna give you what you need,
a little confusion, a little bit of greed.
Just one more chance to get down,
leave your body on the ground.
I, I go down by the bay.
Sister, sister can you see
what in life is reality?
Sister, sister can you see
what in life is reality?
Repo Man -
Flashing lights, the glow bright from the middle of the field.
Possessions in succession as the birds in flight are yield.
Sinking, is it drowning or is it rising up?
Crows cover cleverly in awe or just in lust.
But she tries,
and you lied.
But she tries.
The Repo Man.
Succeed all you need for the fear of getting lost.
Confusion and illusion come at a cost.
Lipids lying dying on the ground everywhere.
Does she really give a shit, does she really care?
But she tries,
and you lied.
But she tries.
The Repo Man
Tramp Junkie -
Ain't nobody's business what I'm saying in my bed.
Ain't nobody's business what I'm saying in my head.
I was looking for a diamond lady,
I was looking for her at the top of the moon.
Such a funny feeling, when your down on your luck,
when you realize, you feel in love with a tramp.
Funny, how it's funny, how things just seem to change.
The girl you thought was the world, won't even make an exchange.
I was looking for a diamond lady,
I was looking for her at the top of the moon.
Such a funny feeling, when your down on your luck,
when you realize, you feel in love with a tramp.
Quick Tune -
I told the people that the rain was coming today.
Yeah, I told the people that the rain was coming today.
The people called me dumb, and went about on their way.
The rain's gonna come now, soak my feet until they bleed.
The rain's gonna come now, soak my feet until the bleed.
What the people don't know, is they won't leave.
Really, I don't know nothing but what I can't see.
Really, I don't know nothing but what I can't see.
The way you look into my eyes will cause a blind man misery.
I built me a boat now, a holy boat on the shore I see.
I built me a boat now, a holy boat on the shore I see.
The people dont know, a holy boat should leak.
Really, I don't know nothing but what I can't see.
Really, I don't know nothing but what I can't see.
The way you look into my eyes will cause a blind man misery.
Dusty Trail -
Voices from the graveyard, oh they call to find their pet.
One man's walking loudly now as feet on dry leaves have met.
The sun's glare, he covers his eyes, and prepares to die.
To shield away a thousand glares reflecting on the western sky.
See a man with a golden rope, he's high up in a tree.
See a man who's cupping his ear, for broken all is he.
The cardoor slams in such haste, the wonder why we waste
our lives watching other people die.
Checkered patterns fall on the floor, light keeps time and eyes are sore.
There's swirls in the air, but they're not really there, people calling out but they don't really care.
And then when finnally sweats have rolled off, all there is is memories and tweaked thoughts.
There's touches on the head but all humans have fled, dogs tossing turtles filled with hot, hot lead.
Too many smells, my nostrils too big, nostalgia of water from which I dig.
I can't keep running the same race, cant keep it sane.
Walking down steps, dropping down high lips, on the corner I pass a man with a tip.
He say, " Inject the water before you pass, the shit your running will never last."
Wake Up! -
The morning sun shines behind me, driving though edenside.
The purple light of dawn's reflected off the frost of midnight.
I could see your light, in an electric sea.
But through the waters of thought, I thought I saw your light shine on me.
That could be my explination in reminisce,
the rain is falling on my head, but this time it will miss.
When I opened my eye's the sun leaned in through my blinds and said,
"Wake up!"
A ciggarette grows bright and dissappears in the moonlight,
and the only reflections that can be seen are from the sunflowers in your eyes.
Judging by the moon I could see, it was only two or three,
but by the cloud I'm set upon it seems time was up to me.
I could see you face in the urinal next to me.
You fall in love with devil, are you suprised when she leaves?
When I opened my eye's the sun leaned in through my blinds and said,
"Wake up!"
Blind Misery -
I've got tired eyes from watching over you.
Oh, so many long nights you brought me down with what you do.
Well you used to suit me fine but now you've lost your mind.
All my memories are getting blue.
You called me on the telephone,
and no one, no one was there.
You called out, out through the neighborhood,
and no one, no one heard you anywhere,
Your voice it ain't the same now that you've changed
my memories are getting blue.
I watched you tap your foot on the street,
just shaking your body to an imaginary beat.
I watched you, as you walked straight up to me
and you told me, "Honey I'm a have ta leave you cause you got two left feet."
Well I never learned to dance,
but I sure know how to shake the blues.
I'm hoping, I said, "I'm hoping that the grim reaper is at my door."
But all that I'm finding, all that I'm finding yeah,
is broken mirrors, broken mirrors all about the floor.
Well, I ain't who I used to be only who I am.
All my memories are getting blue.
Time is Speed -
The rooster crowd early in the city today,
the seeds dissolve quietly in the pavement cracks where they lay.
Pidder-padder keeping time in haste, no time to waste.
Like addicts for material, crows will kill for a taste.
I can hear footsteps on the outside of my door.
I see boots, I see knives, I see guns galore.
I know those cops can't be smelling that good
coming from the crack of my door.
I just can't hide it no more.
The clocks dipped in tone, on an ageless time.
The trains speeding fast, onward down that line.
The hour hands only as quick as the eyes that see.
Left alone and unabridged, time is speed.
Du's Song -
Du's been travelin' since when I can't remember when.
Travelin' all over the country looking for something to begin.
He's working constuction, he's working on the rig.
If he'd find peace of mind, he might find some place to stick.
Catch him on the country side with a half ounce in his tank.
Shortcuts are a special, straight lines are just a flank.
He's headed to Almo, he's headed down to the 'ville.
The look on his face, like a can of mase, it says,
"I ain't got no time to kill."
"Chimmy-chota boys!" he says while he's driving with his knee. (Kee-Kee!)
"I got some things I got to tell ya, cause I know you're straight with me.
I'll be far out of Ken-Tenn when the sun's just setting down."
One hand to shake you with, but the other hand was pointed straight out of town.
65 to Nowhere -
Sixty-five to nowhere, nothing to do but drive.
Trucks and cars are passing me by as I dodge those white bright lines.
The place that I'm going is not the same place that I'm from.
One man nods to me, he's got those electric eyes.
The gaze he takes would never make me casually pass him by.
He points one direction opposite of where I'm from.
The time has come, you got to bite your tounge, but it's gone away.
One guy. (one guy)
Too sly. (too sly)
He'll take your money before you even know it's there.
One more lie. (one more lie)
Who could lie?. (who could lie)
To man with his hands holding on the street so bare.
The time has come, you go to bite your tounge, but it's gone away.
It's gone away.
Sandi -
The day that Sandi died, that was authentic sympathy.
No prayer or no church, we all carry a disease.
We went down to the basement, and the ceiling it started to shake.
When that bass hit that low B string, she felt the water's wake.
Penny's mother's gone and she still shutters her eyes.
Her mom went out in a fight to save the young one's life.
Sandi still exist in every face, in every tear and in every breath.
You can't hear her in this place but we can feed her ears after death.
Sandi, I can see you rolling on the floor.
Oh Sandi, you can hear that music roar.
Sandi! Sandi! This songs just for you.
The darkness never hid so well the crying yelps and bloody swells
of a grown women in her prime.
When the darkness didn't recede a valiant opponet gained his greed
and he left Penny's mom behind.
Blood, blood, blood, blood coming out the back door.
In sputters of life, reflected in the moonshine.
Penny had a suprise when she woke up,
her mom had just died.
Sandi, I can see you rolling on the floor.
Oh Sandi, you can hear that music roar.
Sandi! Sandi! This jam's just for you.
