TROLLS
I TIRED TO REASON WITH CONVICTION
GOT TIED, AND LOCKED UP IN CHAINS
LONG NIGHTS, SOLITUDE HELD ME
IN THE BED I MADE
WITH A DEAD BRIDESMAID
DON'T GIVE IT AWAY
DON'T LET THEM STAY
WHY SHOULD THEY OWN YOU
DON'T GIVE THEM A CHANCE
DON'T LET THEM IN
THEY GOT NOTHING TO SHOW YOU
DEEP DOWN HELL'S PIT IS WHERE I LANDED
COCKROACH PEOPLE WITH LIZARD-SKIN EYES
STABBED ME THROUGH MY BRAIN, SLIME-COATED KEYS CLACKING
I COULD SMELL THEM THROUGH THE GLASS
RIGHT BEFORE I DIED (SMELLED FRIED)
LOOKED BACK IN COLD HARD TERROR
WERE THEY BEHIND ME, WHERE DID THEY GO
WAS IT JUST THE DEMONS INSIDE ME
POISONED MOTHER'S MILK OR THAT '80S BLOW (DON'T KNOW)
LIKE A DEAD-MAN'S BONES
AIN'T NOBODY HOME
ON AND ON THEY DRONE
NOTHIN' BUT TROLLS

TILL YOU'RE IN IT
TOUGH BREAK DON'T WAIT
NO ONE GONNA OPEN UP YOUR GATE
STEP UP STEP BACK
GOTTA GET ON THE TRAIN IF YA WANNA RIDE THAT TRACK
CAN'T WAIT A MINUTE AND A MINUTE IS ALL YA GOT
IF YOU DON'T TAKE IT SOMEONE WILL
WHETHER YA LIKE OR NOT
DON'T MATTER HOW YA FEEL
SAY YOUR PRAYERS LATER NO TIME TO KNEEL
YOU WON'T KNOW TILL YOUR IN IT
IF YA GOT A CHANCE TO WIN IT
CAN'T FEEL THE STING
UNTIL YOU GET INSIDE THAT RING
FALL DOWN GET UP
GOTTA MOVE NO TIME TO STOP
WON'T KNOW TILL YOU'RE IN IT
THINK HARD THINK FAST
THINK ALL YA WANT BUT THOUGHTS DON'T LAST
THE SWEAT THE BLOOD
THAT'S THE STUFF THAT WE'RE MADE OF
LIP SERVICE DON'T PAY THE RENT
A PENNIE'S WORTH A BITCH
ONE MORE SELFIE FOR THE ROAD
WATCH OUT FOR THAT DITCH
NO DICE NO DEAL
NO LUNCH TICKET, NO FREE MEAL

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT
SLOW DOWN MAMA, YOU'RE GONNA PUT ME IN THE GROUND
MAYBE TRYIN' TO KILL ME, IF I'M LUCKY JUST WEAR ME DOWN
I WANT I WANT I WANT IS ALL I HEAR YA SAY
I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN STAND ANOTHER DAY
BUT LET ME GET A PENCIL SO I CAN JUST WRITE IT ALL DOWN
IS THAT WHAT YA WANT
IS THAT WHAT YA WANT
IS THAT WHAT YA WANT
SHUT UP GIVE UP DON'T YA EVER RUN OUTTA GAS
GIMME GIMME GIMME TILL THERE'S DUST FALLING OUT OF MY PANTS
YOU SPIN ME ROUND AND SHAKE ME DOWN UNTIL I'M DRY
THERE'S GOTTA COME A DAY WHEN YOU ARE SATISFIED
MAYBE WHEN YA BLED ME DRY AND LEFT ME HANGING FROM MY...
MIND IF I ASK?

HEROES AND BUMS
SILVER EAGLE TOUR BUS ROLLIN' ALONG
THEY'RE LIVIN' MY DREAMS WHILE I'M LIVIN' MY SONGS
TAKIN' IT AS IT COMES ONE MILE AT A TIME
THEY'LL BE RIDIN' THE HIGH LIFE AND HOLIDAY INNS
I'M BRUSHIN' MY TEETH IN A TRUCK STOP AGAIN
LISTEN TO THEM BIG DIESELS HUM
IT AIN'T SO BAD I GOT VENDING MACHINES
COFFEE IN THE MORNING AND A PLACE TO SLEEP OFF HIGHWAY 41
AND THE NEXT TOWN TO SING MY SONGS
HEROES AND BUMS
THEY TOLD ME THAT I'D NEVER GET TOO FAR
LOOKS LIKE THEY WERE RIGHT 'CAUSE THIS BROKEN-DOWN CAR
JUST PULLED TO THE SIDE TO LET THE DREAM DIE
NOW I COULD GO BACK OR I COULD HEAD EAST
EITHER WAY'S A LONG WALK DON'T MATTER TO ME
'CAUSE THIS GUITAR SHE AIN'T HEAVY
IT AIN'T SO BAD THERE'LL BE VENDING MACHINES
COFFEE IN THE MORNING AND A PLACE TO SLEEP OFF HIGHWAY 41
AND THE NEXT TOWN TO SING MY SONGS
HEROES AND BUMS
THEY TELL ME I'M A FOOL FOR CHASING THIS DREAM
BUT DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT IT REALLY MEANS
ON HIGHWAY 41
WALK OR RIDE, WE ALL BECOME
HEROES AND BUMS
