Something in the corner calls me,
Trials lay in store for me
Adventures I perceived when I was small

Life in present tenses a
derangement of the senses
I’m unravelling the mystery down the hall

& then my parents voices
come intruding on my choices
while I fight to earn the right to have some fun

running off to join the circus
of my personal perversions
my destiny is further but
the finest wines are wasted on the young

all poets are forsaken
reading Rimbaud, Keats and William Blake
I’m young and I’m pretentious I don’t care

reaching for the Gods yeah
all I asked for was a nod of recognition
c’mon prove to me you’re there

desire’s is all around me
and it calls me and it taunts me
like it keeps an ancient secret I’d forgot

oh those were years of dreaming
yeah some nights I wake up screaming
but I still prefer my madness to anything you got

Sex & Drugs & Rock n Roll
Work better now than back when I began
So kiss my lips and feed my soul
I came to hear the band

Growing up means taking chances
Selling soul for big advances
Mortgages a family needs space

Vacationing on sunny beaches
Scheduling of parent-teachers
Conversations we don’t want to face

But underneath it still there is still
a brutal force of will
that wants to storm the gates of heaven just because

And a growing new commitment
to a radical lost vision
some things take their time to grasp
like understanding

Sex & Drugs & Rock n Roll
Are better now than back when we began
So kiss my lips and heal my soul
We came to hear the band

When I touch you now
I can finally hear the sound
it’s like the world of sense is enemy no more

and all those silly past frustrations
now just by bodies undulating
I accept the job I came here for

I taste the fruit, the nectar drips and
I’m a sucker for your hips
the universe is singing like a bird

connected to the cosmos
I cannot believe we're this close
love is just a word until there’s music playing

Sex & Drugs & Rock n Roll
Work better now than back when I began
So kiss my lips and feed my soul
Come on baby breathe it in
Yeah I remember everything
It’s clearer than it’s ever been
we came to hear the band
we came to hear the band
