How does it feel<br>
"amazon"
To take the blame<br>
music and lyrics: King Buzzo
How does it feel<br>
 
To be behind the drain<br>
"Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me."
Because you take what you can get and ask for more<br>
"O.K."
You never get what you deserve<br>
Understand that you've gotta be givin' me a
And that’s the score<br>
I got nothing but I'm gonna be givin' you
Remember that the life you save may be your own<br>
Expect I have forgetten ev...er, no-one
But when you’re bankrupt you wont get another loan<br>
It's repeater better wanna be beatin' you
I hope that you’ll accept my sympathy<br>
It's a call that your gonna be goin' nowhere.
But understand I gotta think its better him than me<br>
 
It’s better him than me<br>
"AMAZON"
A chain is just as strong as it’s weakest link<br>
music and lyrics: King Buzzo
When you endure the strain it’s always later than you think<br>
 
It’s later than you think<br>
By the time you’re natural
Resign to a life of chronic cellibacy<br>
By the time you die
With fond memories and cheap pornography<br>
I’ll take my head and spin it for you
God forbid I ever wanted intamacy<br>
I’ll just look around
No more, that out out of the door<br>
And I call you liar
God forbid I should feel<br>
And I call you dead
I know that ain’t real<br>
You've come and poisoned all the things
But now I feel like I could rape a nun<br>
That I once sat upon
And it’s always the first kiss that gets you drunk<br>
Everybody’s hungry
That gets you drunk<br>
Everybody’s high
So I keep a habit on her face<br>
We’ll sit around and ask ourselves
While I listen to that Yes song<br>
If it was all a lie
Yours is no disgrace<br>
And I already told you
Mine is no disgrace<br>
And I already see
No, no disgrace<br>
But you have got to know yourself
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah<br>
And so I let it slide
How does it feel<br>
Can we be together?
To fade away<br>
Can you hold my hand?
How does it feel<br>
It takes forever for the sound
To be beneath the train<br>
To get around
The life diguised behind the backward mask<br>
And I already love you
A little dignity is all I ask<br>
And I already want
Many people cross the beach and leave no trace<br>
But will we all
Well I’m hoping for my footprints to remain<br>
Just sore?
I know that ain’t real<br>
But now I feel like I could rape a nun<br>
And it’s always the first kiss that gets you drunk<br>
That gets you drunk<br>
So I keep a habit on her face<br>
While I listen to that Yes song<br>
Yours is no disgrace<br>
Mine is no disgrace<br>
No, no disgrace<br>
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah<br>
Mine is no<br>
Mine is no disgrace<br>
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah<br>
Mine is no<br>
Mine is no disgrace.....

By the time you’re natural
By the time you die
I’ll take my head and spin it for you
I’ll just look around
And I call you liar
And I call you dead
You've come and poisoned all the things 
That I once sat upon
Everybody’s hungry
Everybody’s high
We’ll sit around and ask ourselves 
If it was all a lie
And I already told you
And I already see
But you have got to know yourself 
And so I let it slide
Can we be together?
Can you hold my hand?
It takes forever for the sound 
To get around
And I already love you
And I already want
But will we all 
Just sore?
