Frank Black (1993)
I had so many problems
And then I got me a Walkman
I really liked it a lot, and
They walked right in and they solved them
They walked right in and they solved them
I heard Ramona sing
And I heard everything
The speed they’re traveling
They are the only thing
Ramona
There were moments in the night
It was all right
There were [...]
Mary! I think you got me
You turn around, turn around, turn around and throw it back
Sugar! I think you need me
You bring me down, bring me down, bring me down, bring me down again
I think you got me where you want me
I think you got me where you want me, woman!
Mary! You drive me crazy
You [...]
Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights the TV and the radio
But still I can’t escape the ghost of you
What is happening to me crazy some would say
Where is the life that I recognize, gone away
And I won’t cry for yesterday
There’s an ordinary world [...]
It’s nights like these, I can’t believe what I would give for open space.
A breath of fresh air in this damn place, each minute is more than I can take.
And, I know that I should -
I wouldn’t even change it if I thought I could.
I held on (held on), for so long (for [...]
You thought the world owed you a smile.
Your parent’s cheer your dad was proud.
Monday’s will not apply to you.
Fuck you fuck you I won’t trust you.
So dig my head into the ground
this muscle junkie tied me down.
And cut my limbs stuff them with air
I won’t I can’t I can’t breathe here.
So lick the magazines with [...]
Hey, Mind Reader
You know what I feel before I speak
It always seems you got a one up me
Have a worse for me
Is that what you need?
I’ve got it all and you’ve got nothing
Hey, Mind Reader
Bet you didn’t see this one coming
‘Cause your eyes are never open
I’ve said sorry, you just mock me
And I’m ready to [...]
You wait up for me I don’t wake up for you
Would you like the company or are you sick of me
When your love lets you go you only want love more
Even when love wasn’t what you were looking for
Speak slow, tell me love where do we go… ah ah
Where do we go…ah ah, where do [...]
We, we are in love
and we forever
We not gonna stop
We’ll be forever
And all the stars in the sky
And all the flowers in the fields
And all the flower in the earth
Could never take you from my heart
And it’s forever, baby it’s forever
And it’s forever, baby it’s forever
And let me run till the end of time
Until our [...]
Lovely disguise
Read between the lines
You rock the magic plane with no abbreviation
Three
Four
You sell what you bought
And there ain’t no magic pen
To get back what you lost
I like it when we talk about love
I like it when you talk about love
You always were my favorite drug
Even when when we used to take drugs
Even when we used [...]
Well the past is playing with my head
And failure knocks me down again
I’m reminded of the wrong
That I have said and done
And that devil just wont let me forget
In this life
I know what I’ve been
But here in your arms
I know what I am
[chorus]
I’m forgiven
I’m forgiven
And I don’t have to carry
The weight of who I’ve been
Cause [...]
