Thank God for my poor memory It makes old stories new And from the past we are so free Free to be me and you Zoom, zooma zooma zoom The shooter's in Wallingford White guy with a beard Don't ask me how my year has been I'll just say it was weird (weird) Can't keep track of all the mes I am There's a new one everyday Some of them are my biggest fans Some have too much to say Teargas clouds Riot cops downtown Rookies with poison toys The delegates were stopped And the yuppies Said freedom makes too much noise Noise... Buses can't fly But one sure did try When some asshole did his talking with a gun To the kids it's all the same It's a video game It's like starin' at the sun The shooter's in Wallingford White guy with a beard Don't ask me how my year has been I'll just say it was weird...weird It was weird... (talking) (unintelligible)...Everybody was worried about Y2K Fake news reports (voices are me): "It's a white male with a gun...The shooting happened approximately 2 o'clock on the waterfront Consider this man armed and dangerous..." "Everybody's really upset because they can't Christmas shop this year because of the WTO..." "Dumpsters on fire, tomatoes and rocks being thrown..." "Police are taking corrective action."

Own Heart 03:10
Be the King or your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the King or your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the King or your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the King or your own heart Be the King Be the Queen See the warnings from the start Look in the mirror when you part See the warnings from the start Look in the mirror when you part Look in the mirror when you part See the warnings from the start Look in the mirror when you part See the warnings from the start A relationship's not an Entity There's a Kingdom of You and a Kingdom of Me A relationship's not an Entity There's a Kingdom of You and a Kingdom of Me An alliance of souls for all to see A Kingdom of You A Kingdom of Me A relationship's not an Entity There's a Kingdom of You, a Kingdom of Me Be the King or your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the King or your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the King or your own heart Be the Queen of your own heart Be the King or your own heart Be the King Be the Queen Or be somewhere in between...Somewhere we've never seen....Just be the Monarch of your Heart Of your own heart Of your own heart Of your own heart Of your own heart Of your own heart Of your own heart Own your own heart
