Local H : The '92 Demos
Lyrics
1. NOTHING MUCH AT ALL
Do you recall the word you said to me?
The one you could not wait to hear from me
You called yourself the poet to my face
And the minute that you said it
You turned into nothing much at all
Whoa, yeah
When the who's, the what's and why's and where's
Your psyche come face-down and hit me full up-front
And you chase away the praise
You called yourself the rebel to my face
And the minute that you said it,
You turned into nothing much at all
Yeah
Do you recall the word you said to me?
The one you could not wait to hear from me
You called yourself the beauty to my face
And the minute that you said it
You turned into nothing much at all
And the minute that you said it
You turned into nothing much at all
The minute that you said it
You turned into nothing much at all
The minute that you said it
You turned into nothing much at all
The minute that you said it
You turned into nothing much at all
2. BLUR
You know this year was a blur
I think I know you, but I'm not sure
If I don't know, I don't care
I only took you home on a dare
It's only livin' now
It's all I'm givin'
We're only livin' now
The quarter to seven
Hits me with the bright light
We're only livin' now
It's all I'm givin'
You know this year was the worst
I really thought it was fun at first
And I don't care if I'm wrong
You know this bender's been all year long
It's only livin' now
It's all I'm givin'
We're only livin' now
The quarter to seven
Hits me with the bright light
We're only livin' now
It's all I'm givin'
It's only livin' now
It's all I'm givin', YEAH!
And things are starting to blur
I almost called your name
Things are starting to blur
I almost made a mistake
Things are starting to blur
I only shut myself up
Things are starting to blur
I almost fucked myself up
3. USER
I used - I used her right - oh, yeah
I used - I used her right - oh, yeah
Don't you give me no
Don't you give me no shit
I used - I used her right - oh, yeah
I broke her open wide - I broke her open wide - oh, yeah
Don't you give me no
Don't you give me no shit
Digging down deep in my conscience
Digging up something nasty and white
Break wide down the middle and hard
I'll tear away what I came for
I used - I used her right - oh, yeah
4. NO MORE
You took mine away from me
You made me say please
You gave me those feelings
That made me get down on my knees
No no no
No more (x4)
The way of today
The way of today
You make me feel bad
And you take my defenses away
Nah, hell no
No more (x4)
You don't want my love
You don't want my heart
You want my respect,
But that's not what you'll get when you tear me apart
No more (x20)
5. BIGGER
The big hollywood movie
You don't mean nothing to me
Big grand gesture
You don't mean nothing to me (x3)
Yeah
Yeah
How can you say that bigger is better
When I've seen everything before
Yeah
Yeah
How can you say that bigger is better
When I've seen everything before
Big shot
Big star
You don't mean nothing to me
Big shot
Big star
You don't mean nothing
You don't mean nothing
You don't mean nothing to me
Yeah
Yeah
How can you say that bigger is better
When I've seen everything before?
Yeah
Yeah
How can you say that bigger is better
When I've seen everything before?
How can you say that bigger is better
How can you say that bigger is better
And how can you say that bigger is better
When I've seen everything before
6. MAYONNAISE & MALAISE
Writing what you say and saying it all back to you
Mayonnaise and malaise to go
The catcher in the rye caught a catch 22
Keep it at a pace... My life is like a crawl to me
Catatonic face... I'm marking time randomly
Mayonnaise and Malaise to go
Dull and null and void and all my best instincts stink
They pay me by the hour and I don't even have to think
Charismatic bore and I don't wanna work no more
I'm gonna kill the next customer who walks in the door
Mayonnaise and malaise to go
It's really something to be twenty-nothing
I feel my place is so secure
A culture spot that I have got
So glad to be unsure
We've passed our prime in record time
I never thought we'd fall so low
We've come this far to sell your cars
I want all my unease to go
It's really something, to be twenty-nothing
I feel my place is so secure
A culture spot that I have got
So glad to be unsure
I've come to resent what I represent
I'd like to smack that smile off your face
But for my angst I must say thanks
So good to be put in my place
Mayonnaise and malaise to go
Punk rock car
7. CONGRESSMAN
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You can leave it
Cuz I don't want it
It's all fucked up and tangled
Just leave it behind
You can have it, if you want it
I can always get another
Yeah, they ain't hard to find
If you don't want it,
Then screw it
Don't try to tell
Me all about it
No, don't waste my time
You can leave it
Why don't we leave it
No, I don't wanna talk
And there's nothing on my mind
It's been two long years
And it's re-election time
But I ain't running
I ain't a Congressman
I ain't no Congressman
Two years
I ain't a Congressman
Now you're complaining
But I don't play it
Yeah, I threw away those rules
A couple of days ago
Why don't you go?
Don't make me turn around
And be hard and tell you truth
That I can't take it
I can't stand it
This is not what I wanna
Do with my life
Can't you believe it?
Why don't you see it?
Get the quarters off your eyes
That are making you so blind
It's been two long years
And it's re-election time
But I ain't running
I ain't a Congressman
I ain't a Congressman
Two years
I ain't a Congressman
I know
You're so blind
It's been two long years
And it's re-election time
But I ain't running
I ain't running
I ain't a Congressman
I ain't a Congressman
Two years
I ain't a Congressman
I ain't a Congressman
Two years
Yeah
I ain't no Congressman (x3)
I ain't a Congressman
I ain't no Congressman (x2)
I ain't no
I ain't no
I...no
