  1. amanda is in love

    with the sight of the moon

    she's got pale green stars

    in her room

    right above her bed

     

    put them on the ceiling

    leave on the light

    when the sun goes down

    then the stars might shine

     

    shining in the dark

     

    skinny little girl in her room alone

    she's got hell to spare

    in her home

    if you can call it a home

     

    doesn't want to be

    like anybody else

    when no one is around

    she talks to herself

     

    I can hear her in the night

     

    hey- hey yeah

    it's hard on a girl

    when the blood won't come

    when it ought to come

    it's hard on a girl

    when you try to walk around

    on the shaky ground

     

    hey, hey

    daddy's going away

     

    scared little girl

    watching aladdin on tv

    amanda always cries

    when you yell at me

     

    yeah- please don't yell at me

     

    climb up all those stairs

    close the door

    doesn't want to

    hear us fighting anymore

     

    yeah, better call it a day

     

    hey- hey yeah

    it's hard on a young girl

    she thinks it's all her fault

    when it all goes wrong

    it's hard on a grown man too

    see my baby crying at the window

    calling out my name

     

    hey, hey

    daddy's going away

     

    she's got pale green stars in her room

  2. I wanna know

    I wanna know

    I wanna know

    I wanna know

     

    Was the garage your playground

    Your pool a hose

    Did you piss in the alley

    and get your toes caught

    In the spokes of a bike with a banana seat

    Did you carry a knife that was rusted shut tight

    You got drunk after church at 13

     

    We may well be the ones

    To set this world on its ear

    We may well be the ones

    If not, then why are we here

     

    I wanna know, I wanna know

    The sweet smell of candles burnt low by young women

    Alone on their own for the very first time

    Under posters of rock stars that you vaguely resemble

    In front of a cat a responding "Perhaps"

    Means that you'll be the next one in line

     

    We may well be the ones

    To set this world on its ear

    We may well be the ones

    If not then why are we here

    Why the hell then are we here

     

    I wanna know, I wanna know

    You may well be the next one

    Someone sell me a handgun

    Goodbye Ma, I'm done for

    It's the law, tell me what for

     

    I wanna know, I wanna know

    Smoke cigerette butts

    from your brother's green helmet

    He wore in that war once

    where everyone lost

    And they taught him to pour coffee and napalm

    And traded his storm for an intense calm

    That just won't let him be

     

    We may well be the ones

    To set this world on its ear

    We may well get it done

    Why the hell else are we here

    We may well be the ones

    To set this world on its ear

    We may well be the ones

    If not then why are we here

    If not then why are we here

    We may well be the ones
