Cool Songs

Billy was a Bird dog
He pulled up in a Bonneville
I went to see my manager
He usually handles these things

Billy pulled his wallet
Full of hundred dollar bills
Took me for a joyride
Talkin' 'bout the stereo
Drivin' in the left lane
I'm thinkin' 'bout my burial

We pulled into the liquor store
And he was underage
And all he said to me was
Put your money away

'Cause Billy is a runaway

Billy's got a Family
Gonna skin him alive
His dope dealing sister
Wants him to join the enterprise

I leave him at the motel
They can talk it all over
His sister's got a baby now
And Billy hardly knows her

Well I'm a friendly kind of guy
And I had to have him over
I gave him a drink
What do you think
His hands start shakin'
His boots start quakin'

Billy is a runaway (x4)

Runaway (x3)

His hands start shakin'
His boots start quakin'

Runaway baby

Billy is a runaway (x2)

...well,at least the video collage features Draia,the coolest geek girl ever...


here we go axemen here we go
at the pep rally i stole the show
wearing our purple and our whites
hey look around there's so much white
do you wanna live this teenage dream
the punk white privileged scene
oh quarterback i'll steal your axe
and cut it out of here
cuz i'm out of my head
i'm out of my mind
i'm out of my life tonight
i'm going out there and i'm going fast and i'm going hard
i'm going crazy do you wanna watch
do you wanna come?
cuz i'm out of my head
i'm out of my mind
i'm out of my life tonight


i said oh teacher, teacher can you tell me what to do
or do you believe those white lies
you are supposed to teach in school
she said don't believe everything you read
that's written down
she said don't believe
and then i will burn the school down


cuz i'm out of my head
i'm out of my mind
i'm out of my life tonight
i'm going out there and i'm going fast and i'm going hard
i'm going crazy do you wanna watch
do you wanna come?
cuz i'm out of my head
i'm out of my mind
i'm out of my life tonight


cut off the part of me that's privileged
cut off the part of me that's privileged
but that's too easy this is work i've got to do
high school it's me in highschool


cuz i'm out of my head
i'm out of my mind
i'm out of my life tonight
i'm going out there and i'm going fast and i'm going hard
i'm going crazy do you wanna watch
do you wanna come?
cuz i'm out of my head
i'm out of my mind
i'm out of my life tonight


here we go axemen here we go
at the pep rally i stole the show
wearing our purple and our whites
hey look around cuz there's so much white
do you wanna live this teenage dream
the punk white privileged scene
oh quarterback i'll steal your axe
and i'll cut it out of here

I was talking to larry
The scene was really hairy
We were sitting in the dark
What you don´t see you don´t know
He said this town is getting kinda scary
Pretty soon comes the big fall
He said he´s gotta get away
Go larry, get away
I just saw suzie by coincidence
I thought she looked really healthy
She said she´s feeling pretty queasy
She said she hasn´t been very lucky
Her life is all fucked up
She said she´s gotta get away
Go suzie, get away
Have you seen mitchell
Got a call from him in jail
He asked if I could post the bail
Busted and strung out
He said he´s feeling really sick
Really sick
He said he´s gotta get away
Go mitchell, get away
Go go get away

3E -
Mother said I don't like the way you always want to stay in bed
I don't mind the service
But I think you're getting overfed
I said Mama this is better than a girl
Because from this standpoint I can understand the world

You're not suppose to break your toys
Drop the papers - make the noise

It's too much mystery to always only see half a face
Out on the street marching unrestrained the human race
All this ceaseless motion takes all my might
Close the curtains give up the light

Take the file smooth me down
Drop the bodies on the town

The wall cries out:
"Hey pal I'm starving how about something to eat"
Opens up his lips tunnel tongue regurgitates the street
Mother unbondaged mouth wakes up the hand underneath the steps -
trips down the stairs drops the milk gets the sheets all wet

Mother don't abuse your child
It's not the time to make the smile

Scorn-
A transcription of the unintelligible mutterings of John Candia, a homeless man befriended by Sumner.




NEW YORK NO WAVE....

Ever live a life that's real
Full of zest, but no appeal
Ever want to cry so much
You want to die
Ever feel that you've been had
Had so much that you turn mad
Ever been depressed that
(to) those you turn to, you bring distress
Ever sit in tormenting silence
That turns so loud, you start to scream
Ever take control of a dream
And play all the parts and set all the scenes
Ever do nothing and gain nothing from it

Ever feel stupid and then know that you really are
Ever think you're smart and then find out you aren't
Ever play the fool and then find out that you're worse
Ever look at a flower and hate it
Ever see a couple kissing and get sickened by it
Ever wish the human race didn't exist
And then realize you're one too
Well, have you ... ever .. I have
So what

...down on energy today,black flames giving way to a light blue hue...need power-pop...to get it up...

...this will get the adrenals going...excellent Aussie Powerpop...by much loved and respected,Spiderbait...Hmmm,Hi Janet!!!,always had a thing for you...

Love this two piece,likeable people...

Regurgitator marries Spiderbait...and this is the result...Hi Janet.

...this blew my mind when it come out,to actually see a Vietnamese have a voice in this country,when the media at the time,painted the T-5 Gangs as public enemy number one...it was refreshing at the time,cool one Quan...

Loved my little refugee friend from school,he made a paper dove kite that flew higher,more stream-line than the rugged Box-kites and diamond designs,we were doing in class that day...Nicest boy I ever knew,and since him,always favoured them as a people,very humble,loving and funny...

this was my favourite music video for many years,listen to the lyrics,print them if I can find them...

"...Up all night making bombs,fill my time listening to hate songs..."...so funny...so true

...How it all begun...




best and most favourite of the classics...the emotions it stirs.

...and dad would play these quirky tracks when I was a kid...but thank God for mum,who would play Rock 'n' Roll soon as he went on shift...

but still like some of them



The Villain...my fave...



...and Mouldy Old Dough...they're big hit...

...those old 60-70's cars,they'd have these great big seats...and coins would collect there...and I had to save $2.99,which was heaps of money back in 1976.Since Paddle Pop Ice-creams were 8c each,cans of coke were expensive,a luxury at 20c,with a few Bex powders,you could trip out...but was very scared.Hot chips,you could'nt finish,for 15c and the sea-gulls followed you around,knowing they're gonna end up with a feed.
We had a Russian defector at school,Vladimir,who looked like a vampire,the only kid I was afraid of,thought he was planning on blowing the school up...such was the fear back then of the Communist...

weird days back then,oh yeah,I got kisses after school (Geraldine Partell an Austrian) and the two Michelles up the street fondled my penis,telling me how their parents were all swinging back then...Good days

anyway,so David Chan told me about the Beatles,so I took the money between the seats,ran upto Fossey's,in Campsie...and bought my first Rock'n'Roll album...blew my mind...and absolutely levitated on the spot,when this track came on,it was The Beatles Double Gate-fold album,Rock "n " Roll Music...still got it,but a bit worn...




the bass sounds like a digeridoo...absolutely amazing track...still fresh I think...

...four months later,I was totally perverted...and understood the content of what I was listening too...
