Walking these streets with a slight headache
Wondering how I could have made what I make
See I don't want to be carried and I don't want to be buried
I just want to be married to the very first thought
But oh, I get so caught up thinking these thoughts that I thought up
And I know I've got to, I've got to find a way
I've got to find a way to get my mind off
Replayreplayreplayreplayreplayreplayreplay
See I try my very best to be just how I am
But everybody wants me to be like Zimmerman
So I thought about giving in, ah, but then I think again
I don't care about what who said
I'm too busy listening to the voices in my head
Let the haters hate, tell them to pull up a seat
I'll serve their words on plates
Talking all that shit, tell them time to eat
Let them eat

Shit scheisse merde
Do any of you squares know where I can get a joint around here?
Shit scheisse merde
Do any of you ladies care for a game of truth or dare?
Shit scheisse merde
I ain't fucking scared of no lions, tigers, or bears, oh
Shit scheisse merde
Catch me singing this in 20 years at some local county fair

If I had a dollar for every single yes
But you took away one for every no
I'll have about six dollars
Which incidentally is how much I got in my pocket right now
If I had a dollar for every single yes
But you took away one for every no
I'll have about six dollars
Which divided by seven and do your math right and that ain't

Shit scheisse merde
All you fucking squares better say your fucking prayers
Shit scheisse merde
But I ain't fucking scared of no lion, tigers, or bears, oh
Shit scheisse merde
What did George Bush say when he met Tony Blair?
Shit scheisse merde
He said you act like you care and I act like I care and we both stay rich
Stay rich as shit scheisse merde

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
