Hey! Hey! Hey! Voleur
Long ago, on a path of cobblestone
Gypsy woman calls and beckons me
“Come to my tent and you will see
I sense trouble here, you have questions that, i can answer for a fee
Listen Close, i have seen the path that you have chose”
Is it something that i want to hear
I will expose your deepest fear
“Sit down, let’s join hands, candles, burning ends, spirits give us something clear”
And i look into the glass
Summoning Cecilia
Apparition manifest
Wait Where’d she go?
There’s so much more i want to know
try again before it gets too late
or we gonna leave it up to fate?
“Ok, one more time, focus all your minds, spirits, come on out to play”
And i look into the glass
Summoning Cecilia
Apparition manifest
Watching and waiting to hear what your saying
Footprints far behind
Nothing close in sight
Only the shapes and the outlines of shadows below
It’s us and the moon
Fear impending doom
Where is this taking us?
Where does it go?
Goosebumps rise and fall
Darkness covers all
Pushing our way through the trees – for some light in the dark
Clearing up ahead
Thoughts run through our heads
Is this the end for us?
Is this the start?
Tumbling down the hole
Loss of all control
Mud breaks our fall and we’re stuck where we all don’t belong
Embers burning bright (burning burning bright)
We stay out of sight (we stay out of sight)
Sneaking our way closer to hear the song
Come With Us
Venez-vous
Avec nous
A la sommeil eternel
Keep it low, don’t make a sound
This is really weird
No idea what we have found
Incantations near
Swaying in fires light
I think they’re gonna hear us now
I’m pretty sure they’ve heard us now
Venez-vous
Avec nous
A la sommeil eternel
Venez-vous
Avec nous
Venez-vous
Avec nous
Venez-vous
Avec nous
We drink it up and suddenly
Things aren’t the way they seem
This feels like another dream
But has more sensation
When I look to the right of me
Can’t recognize the sight I see
The red fox is dancing there, so come on let’s all join in
Contemplating the life u lead
Excavating a deep blue sea
Gotta crush the anxiety
That stops you from living now
Everything is a fantasy
Recreating a memory
We’re making moments here, so come on and let’s get wwwwwiiiiiiiiieeeeeierd
Allez laissez parti, tu bois des chianti
Encore si tu veux quelque chose
Tu peux toujours demander
Dawn brings light to a new locale
Of which we’ve never seen before
Greeted by a sinister smile of a clown
Who tempts us in to give us more
And now we’re stuck in this maze
Forced to see a new way
Then we hear that the show is about to …start!
Run along to the red striped tent
To see what it is all about
“Guaranteed fun for money well spent
Beyond belief, without a doubt”
Lights so bright u can’t see
Clowns are laughing at me
Cheers so loud that you can’t seem to help but stop
Is this us?
Are we the freaks but didn’t know?
Do we trust
That there’s another way to go?
Step right up to the new freak show
There is no other of its kind
It defies all the things you know
We guarantee to blow your mind
Pretty girl with mustache
Lobster man, what a catch!
A set of siblings attached singing “la la”
This is us
We are the freaks and now we know
We can trust
That there’s no other way to go
What a mess on display
Throwing peanuts our way
We don’t care cause its right where we want to stay
I’ve got these first world problems, not a new epiphany
Part of a new world order with a strange psychology
No matter how much we have, we’re distracted by what’s not priority
and if you look at your own life, tell me what you see
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da, blah blah blah blah blah
I know there’s people in countries who have way less than me
Who hand wash their clothes and don’t have bare necessities
And yet I wonder as we go, which late-night spot deserves our currency
Will we choose Taco Bell, In n Out, or maybe KFC?
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da, blah blah blah blah blah
I have some time today to make a run to the store
But should I save for my next trip or buy those shoes I can’t afford?
Better yet, pay off my debt, and maybe even out my credit score
Nah, I’ll blow it all tonight, complain about how I’m so poor
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da da, la da da da da da da
La da da, blah blah blah blah blah (x2)
I was alone outside of camp, scavenging for sealed-up cans
City waste, open space, everything falsely secure
There were black leaves in the trees. No time to think what it all means
Cuz all I’ve learned is once you’re bit, the fever hits, there is no cure
Walking back, I saw the flames
Familiar sight I’ve seen before
People bitten, left for dead,
So I went in and tried to find her
All the bags were gone, no survivors…
I tried to save them (but I can’t help them)
Got to keep moving (or we’ll walk the same)
Wish I could change it (but I can’t help it)
Go to let go and move on, things will never stay
Ru- run to the hills
Cause if you stop, you will get killed
No time to waste, fill the space between what’s happened and what’s next
I heard a screaming through the breeze
I felt a shaking in my knees
Cuz all I’ve learned is you can ride or you can hide, just do your best
And so I quickly ran up, knelt beside her
Gasping for air, she was a fighter
I tried to save her (but I can’t help her)
Got to keep moving (or we’ll walk the same)
Wish I could change it (but I can’t help it)
Go to let go and move on, things will never stay.
I tried to save them (but I can’t help them)
Got to keep moving (or we’ll walk the same)
Wish I could change it (but I can’t help it)
Go to let go and move on, things will never stay.
I know I’ve gotten home past five AM way too many times in the past.
With a note at the feet, already asleep, detailing why this was the last.
“You know I’m sorry, Jacquou – it’s me not you. This is how it has to end.”
Silly California girl, you really think I give a whirl, when I’m back on the road again?
No, I don’t want no soggy blanket, NO!
But I hate to see you go, OH NO!
And no matter how you take it, girl, you have to learn to live alone.
You know you had to have seen this coming. It shouldn’t be a big surprise.
Come and go as you please without thinking of me, and telling all those interesting lies.
“Oh Régine, I forgot to tell you. I’m going out of town this weekend…” (What?)
“I’m going to party on Marilyn Manson’s yacht.”
Well, little do you know I’ve got places to go, so tomorrow I’ll be on my way.
No, I don’t want no soggy blanket, NO!
But I hate to see you go, OH NO!
And no matter how you take it, boy, you have to learn to live alone.
No, I don’t want no soggy blanket, NO!
But I hate to see you go, OH NO!
And no matter how you take it, know, we have to learn to live alone.
(x2)
J’ai cru que l’amour etait pour, toujours, pas tous les temps.
J’ai cherche encore, mais finalement, j’ai pas trouve malheureusement,
Je croises les doigts, j’espere que tout va trop bien,
Je touches du bois, que-ce que tu fais, ca va vraiment peter!
La da da da, da da, da da
La da da da, da da, da da
La da da da, da da, da da
La da da da, da da, da da
Je pleur pour toi mon Ukrene,
Je chantes sentiments tout seul sur scene,
Je pleur pas souvent parce que je m’entrein alors j’ai pas l’habitude,
Putain les americains comprennent rien,
mais je pleur maintenant pour toi Ukrene — allez les gars on y va:
La da da da, da da, da da
La da da da, da da, da da
La da da da, da da, da da
La da da da, da da, da da
Aie aie aie aie aie aie aie aie (only lyrics; instrumental song)
My father used to talk about the spirits of the night
Some would grab, some would scratch, some would bite
Some would rip off your toes (ahh!) and so the scary stories go
That’s all they were until I heard you from below
(ahhh!)
Get out! Get out!
I pretend that you’re not there
Get out! Get out!
Yet I see you everywhere
Get out! Get out!
And as easy as it’d be to let it overwhelm or take control, I gotta scream
Get out! Get out!
Most everything I think is somehow clouded by you
Moonshine does the same after one or two shots in a row
And so I’m off (hey!) to see a shaman draped in cloth
Prepares a spell and shows me how it all will stop
Get out! Get out!
I pretend that you’re not there
Get out! Get out!
Yet I see you everywhere
Get out! Get out!
And as easy as it’d be to let it overwhelm or take control, I gotta scream
Get out! Get out!
Get out! Get out!
I pretend that you’re not there
Get out! Get out!
Yet I see you everywhere
Get out! Get out!
And as easy as it’d be to let it overwhelm or take control, I gotta scream
Get out! Get out!
Stuck at a desk job from morning ’til night
Unable to spend all my days how I like
I can’t help but think if I just stick this out
Things will get better in time
There’s always a reason to take the safe route
If I don’t do this now, I will be trapped here for life
Now I play music as they walk down aisles
They’re all out chasing monies, American-style
But I can’t help but think this is right in our hands
As fragile as everything seems
Push through the walls and just follow the plan
Of doing what you love regardless of what it might bring
What makes this wrong? What makes this right? (wo-o-ah, wo-o-ah)
Who tells us all what to decide?
Huddled backstage right before a big show
Would you rather eat roach or be an eskimo?
And I can’t help but think if we’d stayed where we were
And never laid it all out on the line
We’d be the same people as ten years ago
Still yearning for more and living our lives as a lie
What makes this wrong? What makes this right? (wo-o-ah, wo-o-ah)
Who tells us all what to decide?
What makes this wrong? What makes this right? (wo-o-ah, wo-o-ah)
Lie die die die die die
Things that go on inside my brain
Lie die die die die die
Tell me I’m not totally insane
Sitting in an empty sauna
Eating chocolate ice cream
Walking down the stairs sideways
Feel the vultures circling
Lie die die die die die
Things that go on inside my brain
Lie die die die die die
Tell me I’m not totally insane
At first I’m laying on the carpet
Then standing up in supermarket
Next thing I know I have to flee for my life
Running from a figure in a hood with a knife, saying
Lie die die die die die
Things that go on inside my brain
Lie die die die die die
Tell me I’m not totally insane
After all this, things were surely getting weird
A shirtless wrestler appeared
Pulled out a map and he asked if I’ve ever had balut
How far’s the farthest bathroom in this town? (and it goes..)
Lie die die die die die
Things that go on inside my brain
Lie die die die die die
Tell me I’m not totally insane
Now there’s ice cream on my shirt but it’s ripped
From the tip of the blade that was thrust to my chest
And I run, run, run through the endless tunnel maze
When I hear ten thousand voices screaming what a mess (quel bordel!)
Lie die die die die die
Things that go on inside my brain
Lie die die die die die
Tell me I’m not totally insane
We were drinking the vino or was it sgroppinos? I cannot remember
After drying the last days and spying the fast ways of a trying December
N- n- n- not much a keeper but he was a sleeper, beneath a fountain
Getting tipsy with gypsies and digging for gold in the Azteca mountains
Yo-, Yolo Uno
Yo-, Yolo Uno
Yo-, Yolo Uno
Yo-, Yolo Uno
She was a girl from Encino or was it South Reno? I cannot decipher
But I gave her the drum, and taught her the dance, and she was a lifer
T- t- t- telling the future, describing the sutures that I’d get in the morning
You cannot deflect it, had better accept it, will hit without warning
Yo-, Yolo Uno
Yo-, Yolo Uno
Yo-, Yolo Uno
Yo-, Yolo Uno
She wants a fake limousine,
To take you shopping.
Then to buy all the things that she finds amusing,
You’re singing:
Lie die die die die, Lie die die die die die die, die die die die
Uff Da Fie!
Then to eat fancy foods, foie gras chocolate mousse
Then to dance all obtuse to these new gypsy two
You’re singing:
When it explodes you might ask yourself what’s the allure of something so insecure?
On the other hand, what does it mean if i’m destined to repeat singing “Uff Da Fie!”
When the lights all turn off,
Crumpled dirty socks,
You’re front door unlocks and i’m off with your rocks singing
Lie die die die die, Lie die die die die die die, die die die die
Uff Da Fie!
When it explodes you might ask yourself what’s the allure of something so insecure,
On the other hand, what does it mean if i’m destined to repeat singing “Uff Da Fie!”
Lie die die die die, Lie die die die die die die, die die die die
Uff Da Fie!
Let It Ride
well I grew up in California with the beach just to my left
the paradise i came to call my home
when the first chance i got i took right to the stage
feeling like i’d never be along
so pile in the open with open minds and open hands
there’s plenty out there on the open road
i keep a towel on hand
dont’ get too drunk to stand
probably make it back to tell us all
so let it ride
out of this state
i know the drive just might illuminate
the best of times
the worst of days
somehow it all just blows away
well i was born on this train
bred to feel all this pain
my house another 14 hour tow
while on these late summer nights i was kicking out the lights
everything was all hell below
so i stashed another key in a forbidden city
only to return another day
while the clouds have all lifted
skyscrapers not shifted
maybe it was all supposed to change
so let it ride
out of this state
i know the drive just might illuminate
the best of times
the worst of days
somehow it all just blows away
Mariachi
Me and my gypsy band of thieves
Ride the seven seas and as the western world permits
We play cruise ships for hire to subsist
Yea the clientele is stiff
Sip back on their top shelf and flick the wrist that beckons me
To play freebird at least 10 times a day
We took off (La la la la la la la la)
We took off (La la la la la la la la)
We took off (La la la la la la la la)
And we were never coming home
The afternoons we’d serenade
The trophy wives on deck as they sunbathe and misbehave
Fidelity means nothing to them
One afternoon we strayed
Did the things we were forbade
Mariachi mariachi “play monkey play” i don’t believe
We took off (La la la la la la la la)
We took off (La la la la la la la la)
We took off (La la la la la la la la)
And we were never going home
Well today i woke up naked on the floor of my living room
My neighbor came a banging on my door a bit too soon
He said you caused a great commodation when you kicked my door last night
Anywhoo reminding you about your show tonight
I get along (I get along)
I get along (I get along)
And every night I sing new words to the same frickin song
I get along (I get along)
I get along (I get along)
As i stumbled to my room ADLR’s were in my bed,
The booze they consumed was too fresh inside their heads,
Regine pulled up hooked the trailer up and found Nick in the car,
Last thing he remembers we were playing The Shamrock bar… (AKA The Shamrock Irish Pub & Eatery in Murrieta)
I get along (I get along)
I get along (I get along)
And every night I sing new words to the same frickin song
I get along (I get along)
I get along (I get along)
La La
Je suis malade, je suis perdu,
Tuer le temps, devenir fou,
Mes sentiments sont contre moi,
Et finalement, j’arrive pas sans toi…
La la la la la.. Hey! (x4)

Tuer le temps, et je m’en fous,
Mes sentiments sont contre moi,

Je veux pas casser, tout tes baisés,

Quand je rêve, je rêve de toi
toute la nuit, je me rappelle de toi
quand je m’enfuis, je pense à toi,
j’ai pas sourie, et tu es pas là.
Tu attends, toute seule,
tu prends, toute seule,
je comprends pas tout est perdu,
tu souffres, toute seule,
t’engouffres, toute seule,
c’etait le mieux que j’ai connu.
Moi je rêve pas souvent,
quand je rêve, je rêve de toi,
quand je me réveille je pense à toi,
il reste une feuille, et tu es pas là.
Tu attends, toute seule,
tu prends, toute seule,
je comprends pas tout est perdu,
tu souffres, tout seul,
t’engouffres, tout seul,
c’était le mieux que j’ai connu. Hey!
C’est pas logique,
tous mes rêves,
et je t’explique,
ils m’achèvent,
quand je me réveille,
je pense à toi,
il reste une feuille,
et tu es pas là.
Tu attends, tout seul,
l’apprends, tout seul,
je comprends pas tout est perdu,
toi, tu souffres, tout seul,
t’engouffres, tout seul,
c’était le mieux que j’ai connu.
La lune est brille, ma tête me fait mal,

c’etait moi le grand voleur, hey! hey! hey! hey!
tu es devenu en colere, hey! hey! hey! hey!

c’est pas juste les choses comme ça,
je peux pas revenir, je vois pas trop clair,

comment on va faire maintenant?
