Handstands in a crowded street Got arrested again in the name of a foreign queen Life high, entertainment cheap Put him on the cover of a magazine Who’s the man with face pristine Everybody wondered… We don’t know Chic shoes and designer suit Looking mean, clean Million-dollar face Sharp gaze through to you Most knew they’d seen him before Was it in a movie or a TV show Who’s the man of charms unseen Everybody wondered… We don’t know Front Page Superstar Then back to the dirty track To the same old tricks and the same old life out of a hat No no, they wouldn’t believe He was the man on the cover of that magazine An unknown celebrity Dancing for quarters on Hay Street Front Page Superstar

She’s the shadow of big star She never met A fine copy with an accent From outer space Your new crush between the lines Spotlight eyes A flash exploder A red lipstick overload Fireless smoke The perfect cover In love with the entertainer Prime life through the eyes of strangers Switch it up for the new sensation She’s got heels for days And funny-name pills You’ve got quotes by a buddhist monk From Beverly Hills Who wears what, who likes your tweets How did you meet And what did they order Random ink or impeccable style Two frozen smiles With a cocktail hangover In love with the entertainer Prime life through the eyes of strangers Switch it up for the new sensation

La Güerita 05:15
Another long and lonely road Blindly searching high and low East to west, and west to Hell Cast adrift by an evil spell I didn’t know, I had no clue When she walked into that room If La Güerita stares at you You’ve got your muse to lose Güerita, please, where did you go You stole my voice and I’m out of control My throat is dry and my lips are burned Güerita, please, I won’t let go I’d rather you would’ve taken my soul I’m begging you, I need your cure She lit a smoke and drank for free Watched the crowd from the Devil’s seat We were on fire, the house ablaze ’Til I was struck by her wicked gaze I didn’t know, I had no clue When she walked into that room If La Güerita stares at you You’ve got your muse to lose Güerita, please, where did you go You stole my voice and I’m out of control My throat is dry and my lips are burned Güerita, please, I won’t let go I’d rather you would’ve taken my soul I’m begging you, I need your cure She comes back in my dreams In the heat and the light Turns a drop into steam And I’m in for the ride And so this tune’s inside my head Waiting for me to sing again Until I do, I’ll just ramble on Dive to dive and dusk ’til dawn Güerita, please, where did you go You stole my voice and I’m out of control My throat is dry and my lips are burned Güerita, please, I won’t let go I’d rather you would’ve taken my soul I’m begging you, I need your cure

Drifter 04:35
I don’t want to be here any more I don’t want to be here any more I don’t want to be here any more I’ve got no place to call my home Been drifting all around and all alone My friends are far away, I couldn’t stay I wonder if they miss me anyway My boots like open mouths Overfed with the miles they devoured When they were still hungry for new beginnings Hidden meanings Sunrise creeping in I don’t want to be here any more I don’t want to be here any more I don’t want to be here any more My hands are cold One thousand winters ago you’d keep them warm And I still wonder: where did you go? Who stole your soul away from us? I lost it all They won’t talk to me any more I’m only shame to my own blood Guilt is heavy Heart is aching Bottle’s empty I don’t want to be here any more I don’t want to be here any more I don’t want to be here any more I don’t want to be here any more (Guilt is heavy) I don’t want to be here any more (Heart is aching) I don’t want to be here any more (Bottle’s empty)
