What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (vinyl)



Not a bad hair band. Meaningful decipherable lyrics stand out. Forget what their big hit was, but it's not on this
album. You head bangers will know. Only thing I remember from here is Unskinny Bop. Aw come on, thats meaningful. A
couple of throw away instrumentals that come in at under 2 minutes. Decided to disregard this stuff if its under a
minute, but if you waste my time for more than a minute, you get penalized. Only other track I don't like is the
closer, Poor Boy Blues. Favorite is the song of despair, Something To Believe In. I guess this album was pretty
big, hitting #2 on the chart, and going triple platinum. Singles Unskinny Bop reached #3 and Something To Believe
In #4. Didn't realize they were that big till I did this. That's what makes this fun. Anyway, pretty decent album
and the only one I have I think. Makes me want to have some of them curly locks. They'd be gray though. Hey, shut
up, at least I have some.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Strange Days Of Uncle Jack

Best Track - Something To Believe In

Well I see him on the TV
Preachin' 'bout the promise lands
He tells me believe in Jesus
Steals the money from my hands

Some say he was a good man
Lord I think he sinned, yeah

Twenty-two years of mental tears
Cries a suicidal Vietnam vet
Who fought a losing war on a foreign shore
To find his country didn't want him back

Their bullets took his best friend in Saigon
Our lawyers took his wife and kids, no regrets
In a time I don't remember
In a war he can't forget

He cried "Forgive me for what I've done there
Cause I never meant the things I did"

And give me something to believe in
If there's a Lord above
And give me something to believe in
Oh, Lord arise

My best friend died a lonely man
In some Palm Springs hotel room
I got the call last Christmas Eve
And they told me the news

I tried all night not to break down and cry
As the tears rolled down my face
I felt so cold and empty
Like a lost soul out of place

And the mirror, mirror on the wall
Sees my smile it fades again

And give me something to believe in
If there's a Lord above
And give me something to believe in
Oh, Lord arise

Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now
The things I didn't know then
Road you gotta take me home

I drive by the homeless sleeping on a cold dark street
Like bodies in an open grave
Underneath the broken old neon sign
That used to read JESUS SAVES

A mile away live the rich folks
And I see how they're living it up
While the poor they eat from hand to mouth
The rich drinkin' from a golden cup

And it just makes me wonder
Why so many lose, and so few win

And give me something to believe in
If there's a Lord above
And give me something to believe in
Oh, Lord arise

You take the high road
And I'll take the low road

Yes Sometimes I wish I didn't know now
The things I didn't know then

And give me something to believe in, yeah
