Sanitize my brain!
When you're out on the town
There are some things that you should never say aloud
So you swallow it down with a nice glass of scotch
Yeah the next one on the rocks
When you're out on the night
There are some things that are considered impolite
So keep your exits in sight coz you're bound to go wrong
Oh it won't be very long coz
It's a soul-sucking surly charade
I wanna stick a knife right in my brain
I get lifted and twisted instead
I might be able to take it
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Sanitize my brain!
When you're out on the town
There are some things that you should always keep around
Like Apocalypse Now and your favorite song
It'll keep you safe from harm coz
I have figured it out
The intellectuals have been run out of town
As the candle burns down
How can mankind move on
When the scientists have gone
It's a soul-sucking stupid charade
I wanna stick a knife right in my brain
I get lifted and twisted instead
I might be able to make it

My Lobotomy
Sanitize my brain!
I'm not so sure of what will become
I know I'm not some fortunate son
And I can't change the rules of the game
So come on and pass that bottle oh brother
The mainstream's getting too dumb
And I can't change the way that I play
It's too late
For my brain
Today
Oh oh oh oh
When you're out on the town
There are some things that you should always keep around
Like Apocalypse Now and your favorite song
It'll keep you safe from harm coz
I have figured it out
The intellectuals have been run out of town
As the candle burns down
How can mankind move on
When the poets all have flown
It's a soul-sucking sordid charade
I wanna stick a knife right in my brain
I get lifted and twisted instead
I might be able to fake it

Lorelei
Lorelei
some are made out of sugar
some are made of snakes and snails
oh but some ain't like the others
some are rare
Lorelei
Lorelei
oh you're my kind of girl
you're a hell of a guy
Lorelei
you are strong as thunder
coz you were forged in flames of love
so much love it could light
a hundred million suns
Lorelei
Lorelei
oh you're my kind of girl
you're a hell of a guy
Lorelei
oh your daddy's a sinner
and your momma's a saint
but who is the captain of your fate?
oh we're born to be sinners
and to sing "Amazing Grace"
oh it's true that you are the captain of your fate
Lorelei
Lorelei
oh you're my kind of girl
you're a hell of a guy
Lorelei

Wasteland

Cover it up again
Just a part of the wasteland
Between lovers and friends
Climb on the carousel
We are one with the darkness
That we keep to ourselves
Stand your ground
Show no sign of weakness
Just bury those bones below the ground
Bury those bones below
Bodies and broken shells
They're a part of the wasteland
Between heaven and hell
Bibles and wishing wells
There are things I could offer
That I ain't gonna sell
So drag me down
Exploit my weakness
Then bury those bones below the ground
Bury those bones below
Then cover it up
I become a part of that wasteland oh
Cover it up
I become, I become, oh
Cover it up
I become a part of that wasteland oh
Cover it up
I become, I become
There's three for hope
And two for dreams
And one for this reality
One for this reality
There's three for you
And two for me
And one for this reality
One for this reality
Poppies and pestilence
They're a part of the wasteland
Between liars and men
Climb on the carousel
There are things I can promise
But can never foretell
So strip me down
Enjoy my weakness
Then bury those bones below the ground
Bury those bones below
Then cover it up
I become a part of that wasteland oh
Cover it up
I become, I become, oh
Cover it up
I become a part of it
Please don't come back
Cover it up
I become, I become
Stand your ground
Show no sign of weakness
Just bury those bones below the ground
Bury those bones below
Bo-bo-bo-bo
The ground

Oh it thrills me
To see you smile
Yeah it fills me
With love and light
Oh I know what it is
To feel happy as you do
My dear
Oh it kills me
To hear you cry
Yeah it guts me
So deep inside
Oh I know what it is
To feel deeply as you do
My dear
You'll never be fighting alone in this war
And if I have to I will fall on my sword for you
Go up to heaven and claim my reward
It's right here with you dear
Just hold on tight
You'll never be fighting alone in this war
And if I have to I will fall on my sword for you
Go up to heaven and claim my reward
It's right here with you dear
Just hold on tight
Oh...
You'll never be fighting alone in this war
And if I have to I will fall on my sword for you
Go up to heaven and claim my reward
It's right here with you dear
Just hold on tight

fat cat in the lap of luxury
what shall you do today?
sell your soul for a piece of gold
or a nice 401(k)?
but time has gone away
time has gone away
gone away
aha!
the hourglass is now half past
what shall you do today?
running late to the masquerade
who shall you be today?
the snitch or the witch
or the bum in the ditch
or the one who always pays?
who are you today?
who are you today?
haha!
you don’t know
and so you roam
like a zombie on parade
yeah!
take time (take time)
make time (make time)
join me down at the camp
where the gypsies dance
and play and drink and sing
ja!
running late to the churchyard gate
will you repent today?
or live in sin
let the fun begin
and go your merry way?
go your merry way
go your merry way
hahaha!
come down to the camp
where the gypsies dance
and play and drink and sing
JA!
