White on white, lace on satin  
Blue velvet ribbons on her bouquet  
White on white, lace on satin  
My little angel is getting married today

</div>

Volcano pierce the air, ashes block out the sun  
Down in the lair, well I met her there  
With a price for everyone  
I paid eighty dollars for this wedding ring  
I couldn’t take it off if I tried  
And the cactus sure tastes strangely sweet  
As it goes down inside

I’ll dream I’m safe  
In my hotel womb  
Soft and soul made  
It’s a wonderful room

</div>

There’s a place downtown  
Where the freaks all come around  
It’s a hole in the wall  
It’s a dirty free-for-all

And they  
Turn me on  
When they  
Take it off  
When they  
Take it off  
Everybody take it off!

Pull up your pants,  
Stretch out, take a chance.  
If it can be done, you can do it.

If you change your mind  
I’m the first in line  
Honey, I’m still free  
Take a chance on me

They say that you have found a love  
And maybe it’s strong enough  
But should you ever change your mind  
Let me be the first in line

For I would give my heart to you  
With a love pure and true  
And it would last till the end of time  
So let me be the first in line

</div>

And when you’ve taken down your guard  
If I could change your mind  
I’d really love to break your heart  
I’d really love to break your heart

Shout  
Shout  
Let it all out  
These are the things I can do without  
Come on  
I’m talking to you  
Come on

He’s the wolf screaming lonely in the night  
He’s the blood stain on the stage  
He’s the tear in your eye  
Been tempted by his lie  
He’s the knife in your back  
He’s rage  
He’s the razor to the knife  
Oh, lonely is our lives  
My heads spinnin’ round and round  
But in the seasons of wither  
We’ll stand and deliver  
Be strong and laugh and  
Shout…Shout…Shout  
Shout at the devil

The king is dead  
And long live the people who aim above  
All the simple stuff never understood  
Like right from bad and wrong from good deny  
That you were ever tempted by the Lie  
That there’s an answer in the sky

Measure by measure, drop by drop  
And pound for pound, we’re taking stock  
Of all the treasure still unlocked  
The love you found must never stop

In her white lace, you could  
Clearly see the lady sadly looking  
Saying that she’d take the blame  
For the crucifixion of her own domain

I get up, I get down  
I get up, I get down

Two million people barely satisfy  
Two hundred women watch one woman cry, too late  
The eyes of honesty can achieve  
How many millions do we deceive each day?

I get up, I get down  
I get up, I get down

I listened hard but could not see  
Life tempo change out and inside me.  
The preacher trained in all to lose his name;  
The teacher travels, asking to be shown the same.  
In the end, we’ll agree, we’ll accept, we’ll immortalise  
That the truth of the man maturing in his eyes,  
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you.

Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid,  
As a moment regained and regarded both the same,  
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid,  
A clearer future, morning, evening, nights with you.

And you and I climb, crossing the shapes of the morning.  
And you and I reach over the sun for the river.  
And you and I climb, clearer, towards the movement.  
And you and I called over valleys of endless seas.

There’s always gonna be another mountain  
I’m always gonna wanna make it move  
Always gonna be an uphill battle  
Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose  
Ain’t about how fast I get there  
Ain’t about what’s waitin’ on the other side  
It’s the climb

The water is wide  
I can’t cross over  
And neither have  
I wings to fly  
Build me a boat  
That can carry two  
And both shall row  
My love and I

There’s a message in the wire  
And I’m sending you this signal tonight.  
You don’t know how desperate I’ve become  
And it looks like I’m losing this fight.  
In your world I have no meaning  
Though I’m trying hard to understand

And it’s my heart that’s breaking  
Down this long-distance line tonight.

I ain’t missing you at all

But Since U Been Gone  
I can breathe for the first time  
I’m so moving on  
Yeah, yeah  
Thanks to you

Since U Been Gone

How can I put it? You put me on  
I even fell for that stupid love song  
Yeah, yeah  
Since U Been Gone

If you’re gone - maybe it’s time to come home. There’s an awful lot of breathing room. But I can hardly move.

But they’ll laugh at you in Jackson, and I’ll be dancin’ on a Pony Keg.  
They’ll lead you ‘round town like a scalded hound,  
With your tail tucked between your legs,  
You’re goin’ to Jackson, you big-talkin’ man.  
nd I’ll be waitin’ in Jackson, behind my Jaypan Fan,
