lyrics

Hey sister,
Where'd ya go?
You went down to the rodeo

Hey Jane,
I'm going insane..
By the way, did i tell ya that i lost my brain?

And after-hours
When you left me
I don't wanna talk to you
Don't want your sympathy
Stay away child, you won't choke me anymore
With your sinister smile, in the candy store!

Hey brother bill!
Throw me a thrill,
I'm chasing buffalo and my eyes are sinking low

Hey Peggy Lou
What do ya wanna do?
Have ya been around town?
Where the trees make no sound

You've stayed to long,
Will ya please go away?
What do ya want from me?
When the leaves turn to grey
Stay outta my room
You're not wanted anymore
Get outta my head!
And close the black door!

Cause I’m floating in a river
A lake of fire
She’s got rotten teeth
That play with desire
Avalon lives in a blind paradox
Weaving away his brain
Living out of a box
Cause I’m floating in a river
A lake of fire
She’s got rotten teeth
That play with desire!

Hey, Brother Mike,
Why'd ya hit me with a spike?
Straight into my head,
Are you alive when your dead?

Hey, Karla Marla
Are you really rock n' roll?
Well, its kinda hard to move fast
When the sidewalks movin' slow!

And after tonight,
I'll climb over the moon in ecstasy
I'll get away from them memories
I'll hop on the train
Heading down the track
I’ve got a one way ticket and I’m never coming back!
