Phossy Jaw A great debut album by Doesin. You'll find yourself moving your feet just as much as ripping your vocal cords out with the screams. Favorite track: March of the Elephants.

Johnny had a hope Johnny had a plan Johnny learned to play guitar and started up a band 'Cuz Johnny had a dream, And can't you understand? Johnny wanna ride around the country in a van Now Johnny had a home And Johnny had a bed Johnny let a cactus start to grow inside his head Johnny got a wife Johnny got a kid Johnny bought a car Johnny's horse is dead!

Xaniña 03:38
Is that what they say about me nowadays? I figured I might ask you And what do they say about me anyways? Some of it might be true Rumors of my debauchery have been mildly exaggerated The levels of my depravity have been slightly overstated I've been coming apart At my seams And I've been seeing a face In my dreams Why is this so familiar? Why do you look the same? Every time I come around the wheel I could've sworn you would have changed Little Miss Aphrodite Daughter of the Morning Star Priestess high and mighty Inanna, Isis, Ishtar! Heaven and Hell are empty Purgatory is full God and the Devil are in me And I still play the Fool Heaven and Hell are empty The waiting room is full God and the Devil are in me And I still play the Fool

Well, everything is alright with me I've been hanging upside down in a tree I never thought I could believe That everything is alright with me My mind hangs on precariously My life I love vicariously My words fall short inevitably Not everybody is clever like me Not everybody's a rebel like me I'm the greatest there's been I'm Muhammad Ali I've been over I've been over I've been over And I've seen what I've seen And I mean what I mean One if by land and two if by sea The devil ran off with miss Annabel Lee But Love is the Law, and so it must be The truth comes out eventually It's hard sometimes to give and receive You'll lose your mind in order to see Now all I do is try to set free Whatever's inside of this chimpanzee... 'Cuz I've been everything that ever was or is or ever will be I've been everything that ever was or is or ever will be In the end we'll get together When the land falls in the sea And we'll all sing-song forever, "All is one eternally!" I been cooped up for so long that I forgot what she's like I been cooped up for so long that I forgot what she's like Oh believe me now, I seen her Oh believe me now, I seen her Oh believe me now, I seen her She's all she's cracked up to be Yes I told the truth I couldn't lie The truth'll set you all free Yes, and I wrote The Book So you say The Word And I'll tell you what The Word means Oh believe me now, I been it Oh believe me now, I been it Oh believe me now, I been it I've been I've been over I've been over and over and over Again and again The band played on 'til quarter past three Singing about the summertime birds and the bees If I've been long-winded, then pardon me please But everything Is alright With me!

ऊँ गं गणपतये नमः Did you dream about - Did you dream about it? Did you dream about her again? Well, I could fly and We were flying And she was riding an elephant I don't mean to Just go on about it But it's kinda hard to forget You don't think about it You don't talk about it You don't talk about the About the - about the- The Queen danced and I saw her dancing She could dance so elegant "Did you ever dream about her? Said the King to the Hierophant Said the King to the - Said the King to the - Said the King to the Hierophant When the White Knight talked backwards, The Queen yelled "Off with his head! You ate one too many mushrooms And forgot what the Dormouse said!" When you go home, Do you sleep at night? Do you dream about her again? Close your eyes and fantasize and Come march with the elephants

Diamond Head 04:51
All composite forms decay All warfare is deception Strive for greatness anyway The rule proves the exception Your alchemy has been reversed You changed from gold to lead Will you keep a fire in your heart And a diamond in your head? Well I heard there was a way That one might be released From all of the weight Of this world of disease So the ocean will not drown you And the fire will not burn And the earth it will not hold you down To the sky you will return When the work is finished We will change from gold to red If we keep a fire in our heart And a diamond in our head Lock them out! Bar the door! Break the chain! Cut the cord! Drain the wound! Let it bleed! Burn the witch! Set us free! Wow, Bob, wow! WOW BOB WOW!

There's a light in everything It's the reason that I sing And it always shines the brightest when I'm with you It grows stronger every day As I hold your hand and pray That the gods would make us one instead of two And if you ever thought that you could try to run You know they'll get you in the end And if you ever thought that you could try to hide You know they'll get you in your head I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this way I'm becoming this - You're my everything Every word you made me sing I could never try to shine as bright as you But something there was lost I never got my point across To the gods to make us one instead of two You know the snake That ate itself? You know the snake That ate itself Remember the snake That ate itself It ate and ate and ate and ate And ate and ate and ate and ate and... I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating myself I've been eating my-

Winter it broke us And spring never came The spark in your eyes It cannot be named It cannot be named It cannot be named The spark in your eyes It cannot be named And shadows, they come But we shall not decay Your body is gone But something remains What I saw I can't say What I've done I can't change But I know From the way That I felt I'll fall again And again and again And again and again... You're a speck on the page You're a speck on the page You are the light of the world But you're a speck on the page You're a speck on the page You're a speck on the page You are the light of the world But you're a speck on the page And I'm a speck on the page And you're a speck on the page We are the light of the world But we're a speck on the page And he's a speck on the page And she's a speck on the page We are the light of the world We are a speck on the page
