1.WE CARE A LOT

We care a lot
We care a lot
We care a lot about disasters, fires, floods and killer bees
              about Los Angeles falling in the sea
              about starvation and the food that Live Aid bought
              about disease, baby, Rock Hudson, Rock       Yeah!

We care a lot
We care a lot
We care a lot about the gamblers and the pushers and the freaks
              about the people who live off the street
              about the welfare of all the boys and girls
              about you people cause we're out to save the world

Yeah!

(chorus)  And it's a dirty job but someone's got to do it!

We care a lot about the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines
              about the NY, SF, and LAPD
              about you people, about your guns
              about the wars you're fighting
              gee, that looks like fun

We care a lot about the Cabbage Patch, The Smurfs, and DMC
              about Madonna and we cop for Mr.T
              about the little things, the bigger things we top
              about you people, yeah, you bet we care a lot

(chorus)  And it's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it....
 

2.EPIC

        Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
        If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
        You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
        And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
        It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
        It's so groovy, it's outta sight
        You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
        But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
        You want it all but you can't have it
        It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
        So you lay down on it and you do it some more
        You've got to share it, so you dare it
        Then you bare it and you tear it
        You want it all but you can't have it
        It's in your face but you can't grab it
        It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
        It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
        It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
        It's sad it happened and it's a shame
        You want it all but you can't have it
        It's in your face but you can't grab it
        What is it?
        It's it
        What is it?...
 

3.EASY (Written by Lionel Ritchie)

Know it sounds funny but I just can't stand the pain
Girl I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl you know I've done all I can
You see I begged, stole and I borrowed
Yeah
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
I wanna be high
So high
I wanna be free to know the things I do are right
I wanna be free
Just me
Oh baby
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
 

4.THE GENTLE ART OF MAKING ENEMIES

The words are so familiar-
All the same greats, the same mistakes
It doesn't have to be like this.
If you don't make a friend, now
One might make you-
So learn
The gentle art of making enemies
Don't look so surprised
Happy birthday...fucker
Blow that candle out,
We're gonna kick you
[Don't say you're not because you are]
[Don't say you're not because you are]
[History tells us that you are]
[History tells us that you are]
All you need is just one more excuse
You put up one hell of a fight
I wanna hear your very best excuse
Never felt this much alive
Your day has finally come -
So wear the hat and do the dance
And let the suit keep wearing you.
This year you'll sit and take it
And you will like it -
It's the gentle art of making enemies
I deserve a reward
Cuz I'm the best fuck that you ever had
And if I tighten up my hole -
You may never see the light again
[There's always an easy way out]
[There's always an easy way out]
[You need something wet in your mouth]
[You need something wet in your mouth]
Never felt this much alive
 
 

6.CUCKOO FOR CACA

It's cold and it's
Smooth and it's
A hard shade of white
And everybody needs to lick the surface clean
But it never tastes better
White blooms to white and
freezes white again
Close it before something crawls in
Commit it, leave it, get away-
we always
Drop our good side
Being good gets you stuff
Being stuff gets you good
Good stuff gets you being
And wheelin' and dealin' and squealin'
Shit lives forever
They have no legs, but chase us anyway
Wipe the shadow of your best friend
Gave birth to something we don't want to be
We drop our good side
You can't kill it
Eat is just as deep as you can fuck it
So cough it up or go down
And there's only one thing that separates
A man...
Shit lives forever
We'll retire with a turd on our lips
Under a pair of knowing eyes
I'm gonna take a few down with me
And drop my good side
You can't kill it
Take it from our drummer, "Puff"
Being good it gets you stuff
 

7.ASHES TO ASHES

I want them to know it's me
It's on my head
I'll point the finger at me
It's on my head

Give it all to you, then I'll be closer

Smilin' with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
I'll see you

I will let you shout no more
It's on my head
I'll pick you up from the floor
It's on my head
I'll let you even the score
It's on my head

Give it all to you, then I'll be closer

Smilin' with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain
I'll see you

Give the same to me then I'll be closer closer
Give the same to me then I'll be closer closer

Smiling with the mouth of the ocean
And I'll wave to you with the arms of the mountain

Give the same to me then I'll be closer closer
Give the same to me then I'll be closer
