Tender Loving Abuse
Love Is The Only Way
LOVE IS THE ONLY WAY
( Dufay )
Love's game's fine by me
I can accept defeat
But when she marks the deck
I just can't win
Win
I'm one of the last fallen angels
Broke all the laws of love
Cuz each time my love calls
I go down
Love is the only way that I go down
Flew into her moon last night
My entry too quick... whoa
Could be why she's so uptight
She said
'Mama no... mama yeah... yeah
I wrote this song hopin' one day
To prove to you my point
With these three simple chords
You'd understand that
Love is the only way that I go down
Tonight
TONIGHT
( Dufay )
I can't believe no love's come true
Can't feel the flame
And I blame you
She's fancy free
She only sees
Her zodiac and her angel's dust
Tonight... tonigh...igh...ight
Tonight... it's a free fall flight
Tonigh...igh...ight
Tweedle dee... Tweedle dum
Now... Cinderella now... here I come
I've seen you dance
Your hard up prance
Things are strange
And I'm born again tonight
Say what
Tonight... tonigh...igh...ight
Tonight... it's a free fall flight
Tonigh...igh...ight
I can't believe your soft words
They're lies
With a smile on your lips
Your cold eyes they speak
Beware my sweet love
When I cease to adore
I fell in your hands
But not down to the floor
And you don't know
You don't know
You don't know
Don't Talk Back
DON'T TALK BACK
( Dufay )
Oh... you can't feel it
Oh... you can't hear
Cause all I get
Is your sweet double word play
Now I'm out of love
And I'm not in your way
Don't talk back
Don't talk back
I have to get you
Just where you want to be
I have to talk you down
To listen to me
Jealousy got the best of me
I never knew how to referee
Shot down by your cold and thin eyes
Now I know how to speak my mind
Don't talk back
Don't talk back
Won't see me runnin'
With my tail between my legs
I haven't left my balls
Sitting on the shelf
Here comes whip woman
Taking her place
A refugee from hall of pain
Pain boogie... her foot in my face
Pardon... you're past
What's left to say
Cause I don't want to hear why can't I get home
I can't get away
Don't talk back
Don'tcha... don'tcha... don'tcha talk back
Don't talk back
10,000 Bands
10,000 BANDS
( Dufay )
Don't wanna sing about dreams
Or star struck plights
Rock and roll memories
And those burnt out nights
Swallowing splinters of life
And coughing up fear
Then I hear my strung out Stratocaster blues away
Yeah
I played guitar
In ten thousand bands
With nothing to show
But bloodied hands
I played my leads
Screaming high and loud
I've been fuzzed and phased
And echoed and synthesized
Ten thousand bands and me
Ten thousand bands and me
Just wanna sing a little sing song
And I'll have some fun
But my fine fretted friends in my band
They're turning on me
They say stick to pop
It's gonna take me to the top ten
With a bullet
Then I hear my strung out Stratocaster
Blues away... yeah
I played guitar
In ten thousand bands
With nothing to show
But bloodied hands
I played my leads
Screaming high and loud
I've been fuzzed and phased
And echoed and synthesized
Ten thousand bands and me
Ten thousand bands and me
My eyes too open
Too vulnerable
Too full of chemicals
And a lotta... lotta booze
With the three J's gone
