Current song lyrics
Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons<br />Packed up and ready to go<br />Heard of some gravesites out by the highway<br />A place where nobody knows<br /><br />The sound of gunfire off in the distance<br />I'm getting used to it now<br />Lived in brownstone; lived in the ghetto<br />I've lived all over this town<br /><br />This ain't no party; this ain't no disco<br />This ain't no fooling around<br />No time for dancing or lovey dovey<br />I ain't got time for that now<br /><br />Transmit the message to the receiver<br />Hope for an answer some day<br />I got three passports, a couple of visas<br />Don't even know my real name<br /><br />High on a hillside the trucks are loading<br />Everything's ready to roll<br />I sleep in the daytime; I work in the nighttime<br />I might not ever get home<br /><br />This ain't no party; this ain't no disco<br />This ain't no fooling around<br />This ain't no Mudd Club, or C.B.G.B.<br />I ain't got time for that now<br /><br />This ain't no party; this ain't no disco<br />This ain't no fooling around<br />No time for dancing or lovey dovey<br />I ain't got time for that now<br /><br />Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?<br />Heard about Pittsburgh, PA?<br />You oughta know not to stand by the window<br />Somebody see you up there<br /><br />I got some groceries; some peanut butter<br />To last a couple of days<br />But I ain't got no speakers; ain't got no headphones<br />Ain't got no records to play<br /><br />Why stay in college? Why go to night school?<br />Gonna be different this time?<br />Can't write a letter; can't send no postcard<br />I can't write nothin at all<br /><br />This ain't no party; this ain't no disco<br />This ain't no fooling around<br />I'd love to hold you and I'd love to kiss you<br />I ain't got no time for that now<br /><br />Trouble in transit; got through the roadblock<br />We blended in with the crowd<br />We got computers; we're tapping phone lines<br />I know that all ain't allowed<br /><br />We dress like students; we dress like housewives<br />Or in a suit and a tie<br />I changed my hairstyle so many times now<br />I don't know what I look like<br /><br />You make me shiver; I feel so tender<br />We make a pretty good team<br />Don't get exhausted; I'll do some driving<br />You ought to get you some sleep<br /><br />Burned all my notebooks; what good are notebooks?<br />They won't help me survive<br />My chest is aching and it burns like a furnace<br />The burning keeps me alive...just about
