1. There Is No God
so you're a self-proclaimed messiah
or maybe a blasphemous liar
a clever hypnotic hoax
a hallowed heretic coax
who tells these stories so old
no, never the same twice told
speaking in distorted truths
I see that Thomas wants some proof
did you come to heal the sick
with one more magician's trick
your generation seeks a sign
while blind keeps leading the blind
so you say there is no God
just a clever man's charade
a once upon a fairy tales fraud
has God made man or man made God
there is no God
confused thy talk in parables
accused thou walk in parallels
a simple game of Simon Says
this month's flavor sciences
today's fact, tomorrow's fiction
leave the rest to superstition
if knowledge comes from learning books
wisdom comes from discerning looks
a fool that says there is no God
don't feel for that sorry sod
who needs proof then he'll believe
I wonder if he's been deceived
So you say there is no God
Just a clever man's charade
A once upon a fairy tale's fraud
Has God made man or man made God
There is no God
There is no God, no
There is no...
There is no God
There is no God
Oooh, so you say there is no God
Just a clever man's charade
A once upon a fairy tale's fraud
Has God made man made God made man or man made God
There is no God, no
There is no...
There is no God
There is no God
There is no God
There is no God
2. Cynical
today don't look so bad,compared to tomorrow
if time is all we have,then we're living on borrowed
yesterday's for fools who try to,try to remember(try to remember)
the good ol' days weren't always that much better
'Cause I'm a cynical (fuck)
Well I ain't nothing but a cynical (fuck)
It don't take much to be a cynical
(All you need is love)
All you need is what
To be a cynical (fuck)
Well I ain't nothing but a cynical (fuck)
It don't take much to be a cynical
(All you need is love)
All you need is what
And whatever you do, someone's done it first
though it's sad but true this is just another verse
if you can't take it with you then what's the use
(What's the use) What's the use
I never saw a u-haul being pulled behind, pulled behind a hearse
'Cause I'm a cynical (fuck)
Well I ain't nothing but a cynical (fuck)
It don't take much to be a cynical
(All you need is love)
All you need is what
To be a cynical (fuck)
Well I ain't nothing but a cynical (fuck)
It don't take much to be a cynical
(All you need is love)
All you need is what
looks like my brighter side
has gotten a bit darker
i must have stepped over
my four leaf clover
'cause someone drank my
half-filled cup of water
Cynical (fuck)
I ain't nothing but a cynical (fuck)
I don't wanna be a cynical
(All you need is love)
All you need is what
To be a cynical (fuck)
I ain't nothing but a cynical (fuck)
I don't wanna be a cynical (fuck)
Cynical (fuck)
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is what...yeah!
3. Tell Me Something I Don't Know
Sun going up, making it's rounds
It keeps on moving, painting the town
Before you know it, she's sinking low
So tell me something, something I don't already know
I don't know
Toward the south, then turning north
Whirlwind spinning on a circular course
The answer my friend returns to blow
So tell me something, something I don't already know
I don't know
Ooh, tell me something I don't know
As for the wise men who pursue their knowledge
Same as the fool, same as the fool, free falling
Prey to folly
Can only one fate befall them both?
So tell me something, something I don't already know
I don't know
Ooh, tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me
The answer my friend returns to blow
So tell me something, something I don't already know
I don't know
Ooh, tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
4. Hip Today
you'll be gone tomorrow
you'll be gone tomorrow
gone tomorrow
preoccupied with the latest fashion
hip today, hip today
with wide open eyes
on the next big thing you can cash in
hip today, hip today
no never contrived
it's an overnight sensation
a clever disguise
that hides all of your pretension
Sally's selling out
her seashells for souls
hope I don't die
before I get old
Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow
Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow
Dancing in your head
Visions of rave reviews
Hip today, hip today
Believing all that's read
Conceiving another guru
Hip today, hip today
Having made your bed
Falling short of (filling shoes)
You've been left for dead
'Cause there's always someone new
Sally's selling out
her seashells for souls
hope I don't die
before I get old
Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow
Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow

5. Naked
So you want me to take it off
Just to see what's underneath my cloth
I'll show you I'm every inch a man
Measure all that you think you can
Because I'm more than what meets the eye
Flesh and blood is often a white lie
By the cover, you misjudge the book
I said, open your mind and take
Open your mind and take another look
Naked, and I'm unashamed
Naked, with no one to blame
Naked, yeah you want the truth
Naked, here's my birthday suit
Naked
Yeah, I'm naked
I'm naked, naked
Yeah, I'm naked, naked, naked
I pretend to be not anyone
except me and my imperfections
there ain't nothing I'd expect of you
that you wouldn't expect of me
Yeah, you wouldn't expect from me too
Naked, and I'm unashamed
Naked, with no one to blame
Naked, yeah you want the truth
Naked, here's my birthday suit
Naked
Yeah, I'm naked
Yeah, I'm naked, naked
Yeah, I'm naked, naked, naked
Will you excuse me for my ignorance
'Cause I can see only one difference
Those of you who seek to find
While all the others choose to walk and talk blind
Naked
Yeah, I'm naked
Yeah, I'm naked, naked
Yeah, I'm naked, naked, naked
6. Midnight Express

7. Leave Me Alone
As for this song
I'll set the mood
There's nothing wrong
Prefer solitude
Alone to think
Of what I don't know
The deeper I sink
The further I'll go
Nothing to fear
No need to hide
I'm already there
Came in from outside
Safe in my nest
My home sweet home
No invited guests
I just love to be alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(I wish you would leave me alone)
(I wish you would leave me alone)
I just want to be alone
It's better this way
No one will get hurt
If you stay away
I won't lose my shirt
If I've become
Too defensive
I'm not the one
You're livin' with
Leave me alone
(I wish you would leave me alone)
(I wish you would leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(I wish you would leave me alone)
(I wish you would leave me alone)
I just want to be alone
Leave me alone
(I wish you would leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(I wish you would leave me alone)
(I wish you would leave me alone)
I just want to be alone
Leave me alone!
I want to be
I want to be
I want to be alone
I want to be
I want to be
I want to be
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
I just want to be alone
Don't feel sorry
It's not your concern
Only the lonely
Are the ones who get burned
Safe in my nest
My home sweet home
No invited guests
I just want
I just want
I just want to be alone!
(I wish you would leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(I wish you would leave me alone)
(I wish you would leave me alone)
I just want to be alone

9. Evilangelist
Little lamb come out of the rain
You'll catch your death in the cold
A helping hand to come ease your pain
In peace you'll rest in our fold
I can be a watch towering light
For those of you who can't see
I'll separate the truth from the lies
Blind faithful, come follow me, ha, yeah, yeah
Evilangelist (Evilangelist)
Your name is on my list (Evilangelist)
Yeah, I'm your evilangelist (Evilangelist)
In what god you trust
Close your eyes while I hypnotize
A friend in need to confess
You've been denied, the cock crowed thrice
Surrender all you possess
Evilangelist (Evilangelist)
Your name is on my list (Evilangelist)
Yeah, I'm your evilangelist (Evilangelist)
I was betrayed by a kiss
So many claim to come in thy name
Promising peace they'll bring
Lest ye taste the fruit of the vine
They're just wolves in sheep's clothing
Evilangelist (Evilangelist)
Your name is on my list (Evilangelist)
Yeah, I'm your evilangelist (Evilangelist)
Evilangelist
In God we trust, ha
10. Shadow Boxing
Last round
Looks like I'm in for a fight
Knocked down
There is nowhere left to hide
Stick 'n' move
When I try to run away
Old one-two
I only end up face to face
Mirror mirror
Getting clearer
It's just me and my shadow
Dancing 'round the ring
I try to fight it but then how can I win
When I'm only shadow boxing
Time out
I'm looking for a standing eight
No doubt
Yeah, my inside has come out to play
Bob and weave
It's conscious of my every move
Been deceived
Can no longer ignore the truth
Mirror mirror
Getting clearer
Split decision
Blurs my vision
It's just me and my shadow
Dancing 'round the ring
I try to fight it but then how can I win
When I'm only shadow boxing
When I'm only shadow boxing, yeah, ooh yeah
It's just me and my shadow
Dancing 'round the ring
I try to fight it but then how can I win
When I'm only shadow boxing
When I'm only shadow boxing
Yeah, I'm only!
11. Unconditionally
So tell me what can I do, ooh
That you couldn't see through
From the very start
There is only one thing
Yet to come from my heart
Loving you unconditionally
Loving you unconditionally
That's what I want to be
What you are to me
Can you see why it's so hard
For me to break apart
From all the things that I hold
Closer to a heart
That has grown far too cold?
Loving you unconditionally
Something new to a heart yet not free
That's what I want to be
What you are to me
And though it seems impossible
When both of my hands are full
That's the only condition
That keeps me from loving you, loving you, loving you
Loving you unconditionally
That's what I want to be
Loving you unconditionally
That's what I want to be
Something new
Is what I want to be
It's what you are to me
12. Fair-Weather Faith
Prentending to act so serene
On your so called submissive knees
A shopping list of begging pleas
Adds to your complacencies
As soon as the sun don't shine your way
And you're saving it all up that rainy day
It's a matter of time before you get down 'n' pray
Fair weather faith – protect me from the storm
Fair weather faith – gonna right all my wrongs
Fair weather faith – you know i'm doing alright
Fair weather faith – out of mind, out of sight
Well I wonder if the man upstairs
Will bother to lend an ear
If you took the time to share
Another one of your puppet prayers
I ain't talkin' 'bout the weather
13. Waiting For The Punchline
You might say, hey, I lost my sense of humor
I'm quite surprised I didn't lose it sooner
Why waste my breath on anything less, then talk so trivial
As a man who ran out of material
Why did the chicken go across the road?
To get to the other side
I'm still waiting for the punchline
Whoever said the grass always grows
Greener on the other lied
I'm still waiting for the punchline
The good ol' days I was known to wear a smile
Like all good things, they've gone out of style
I will admit, usually a quick wit I found bemusing
What used to be, no longer are amusing
Why did the chicken go across the road?
To get to the other side
I'm still waiting for the punchline
Whoever said the grass always grows
Greener on the other, lied
I'm still waiting for the punch
Waiting for the punch, waiting for the punch
It's nothing that you said, no nothing that you did
Must have been a bad joke that's gone over my head
What, me worry?
Another tragedy
The latter plus time equals comedy
Why can't I get to the other side?
I'm still waiting for the punchline
Whoever said the grass always grows
Greener on the other, lied
I'm still waiting for the punchline
Waiting
Punchline
Punchline
Yeah, yeah, oh, oh
Yeah
