one minute past midnight and i need some
cigarettes see the big sign comin up my
heart starts pounding fast everything

overpriced so i'm shit outta luck i try to buy
some rubbers and i get a murder one it's times
like these in my life i wish i had a gun

Screeching Weasel - 21 Months - lyrics

i tried to act as if i cared. i tried to act as if i didn't want to get out. i wasn't careful what i asked for and i got it but i hung on for 21 months. 49 days sitting, standing, not sleeping and going crazy in a corner. 49 days, my balls turned to brass and i finally won out. i did 21 months. the 21 strangest months i've ever lived. i think about all the sick things that i said, and what i did, and what was done to me and through it all i grew strong. made my stand; learned to live. i still live what i learned in 21 months.

Screeching Weasel - A New Tomorrow - lyrics

We don't believe in god or jesus christ anymore
We don't need colleges to validate our lives anymore
We don't need twelve steps to show us how weak we've become anymore
We don't need to buy into a system that offers empty promises anymore
We don't need protection against anything anybody might say
We know that government can't improve out lives anyway
We don't need to drug ourselves anymore to keep the boredom away
We don't anything except relying on ourselves for a change
I can see a new tomorrow
Now

Screeching Weasel - 53rd & 3rd - lyrics

If you think you can, well come on man
I was a Green Beret in Viet Nam
No more of your fairy stories
'Cause I got my other worries
53rd & 3rd
Standing on the street
53rd & 3rd
I'm tryin' to turn a trick
53rd & 3rd
You're the one they never pick
53rd & 3rd
Don't it make you feel sick
Then I took out my razor blade
Then I did what God forbade
Now the cops are after me
But I proved that I'm no sissy

Screeching Weasel - Acknowledge - lyrics

i am alive i am here i am now i acknowlege the fact of my life i am alive breathing walking and smiling acknowledge the fact of lmy life there's a big big world out there thime that i stepped in 'cause i'm getting tired of pretending that i don't really give a shit there was guilt and shame there was fear and hate but now it's finally time to appreciate the perfection of all life all the times and places and time i'd waste i learned the hard way and ever since when i look forward or back i just gotta laugh 'cause it hit like a ton of bricks i laid down on the ground and i looked around and i saw a miracle i appreciate the simple beauty of the world it came to me like a bullet to the heart but it was there in front of me all along so obvious the only meaning of life is life itself i'm not controlled by anybody else i must get out of my way get out of my own way

Screeching Weasel - Ain't Got No Sense - lyrics

I hoard my dollars 'cause I won't share
It's a time to communicate, a time to be shrewd
A time to liberate, a time to be rude
OH OH, OH OH, OH ain't got no sense, OH OH, OH
My mother kicked the bucket and my dad's on his way
Well I can hardly wait to cash his pay
My little sister's shy 'cause she's got no sense
She learns her lesson when I get intense
OH OH, OH OH, OH ain't got no sense, OH OH, OH
Does she love me for the money, that I keep for my own
Does she love me, really love me tonight
Well I spend my money 'cause I don't care
I hoard my dollars 'cause I won't share
It's a time to communicate, a time to be shrewd
A time to liberate, a time to be rude
OH OH, OH OH, OH ain't got no sense, OH OH, OH
Does she love me for the money, that I keep for my own
Really love me, really love me tonight
If I could change your mind, then things, they would be fine
If I could change your mind, then things, they would be fine
If I could change your mind, then things, they would be fine
Then I know
Well I spend my money 'cause I don't care
I hoard my dollars 'cause I won't share
It's a time to communicate, a time to be shrewd
A time to liberate, a time to be rude
OH OH, OH OH, OH ain't got no sense, OH OH, OH

Screeching Weasel - American Suicide - lyrics

Black asphalt rolling mile after mile
Getting bruised in awe and honor
Running out of things to say
Machine chaos and custom fitted cancer
Searching for an answer
Suburban kiddies' fear
When your pager reads 911
American suicide is so much fun
Lost passion along a tombstone landscape
Cosmetic surgeon's out-take
Retching on the floor
Plastic pop stars and make believe romance
Not even given a chance
The joke's on everyone
When your pager reads 911
American suicide is so much fun

Screeching Weasel - Around On You - lyrics

We don't believe in god or jesus christ anymore
We don't need colleges to validate our lives anymore
We don't need twelve steps to show us how weak we've become anymore
We don't need to buy into a system that offers empty promises anymore
We don't need protection against anything anybody might say
We know that government can't improve out lives anyway
We don't need to drug ourselves anymore to keep the boredom away
We don't anything except relying on ourselves for a change
I can see a new tomorrow
Now

Screeching Weasel - 99 - lyrics

Written by Diane Warren
I've got something I've been keeping inside
And I wanna share my secret
Want to share it tonight
And the moon outside is saying that the moment is right, right now
I've got a message coming straight from the heart
And I got so much I wanna say
Hardly know where to start
Gonna wait 'til we're together all alone in the dark, oh
I'm gonna hold you
And when the time is right
I'm gonna show you just what's been on my mind
Waited for so long, it's so strong
I just can't hold back
You know that
CHORUS:
This could take all night
From sundown up to sunlight
And we won't stop until the daylight
'Cause this could take all night
Yeah this could take all night
There's no hurry we can take it slow
I'll take the time to show you everything you need to know
You'll see everything much better with the lights down low
Oh I'm gonna hold you
And when the time is right
I'm gonna show you just what's been on my mind
Waited for so long, it's so strong
I just can't hold back
You know that
CHORUS
Waited for so long, it's so strong
I just can't hold back
You know that
We got the whole night baby
To hold on tight
Let's take a long ride
We got the time
CHORUS
