Pay To Play
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monkey see, monkey do -- I don't know why I
Walk around, follow you -- I don't know why I
Throw it out, keep it in -- I don't know why I
Have to have poison skin -- I don't know why I

Pay
Pay to play

Walk an inch, take a mile -- I don't know why I
Never faded, never smiled -- I don't know why I
Never mind, eat and run -- I don't know why I
Fuck your ass, for the fun -- I don't know why I

I don't know why I
Pay
Pay to play

Pen Cap Chew
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ummm, lies again (Alt: Once again)
Ummm, mine
Ummm, mmmm

You go, you give, you get, you get to me
All the years of tyrants such an easy way to go
You go, you give, you get, you get to me
Time to struggle and the scaling of fingernails

Ummm, lies again (Alt: Once again)
Ummm, mine
Ummm, mmmm

You're lonely

Waste your time by saying he was gullible
Give up all additions in there where it's cold
Push that gate, it is the age of red eye shame
Protest swine, go to jail, the travesty (Alt: Protest and then go to jail for trespassing)

Two minutes slow...slow...slow...oh

Raunchola / Run, Rabbit, Run
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If it's a hard, cold beat
You can go dance every night
You won't get it shown
It won't be missing the spice
You won't know that it hit ya

Nothing'll make you win
Even the law won't fight
Yeah!

Looking to make your winning
Even if it makes you look nice
You got a sound that's nice
Watching the days go by
You can't go to the day lord's house
We don't have no doubt
We go to too many cocktails
Pimples in way..

Performed at the 01/23/88 show in Tacoma, WA. Other interpretations possible.

Return of the Rat
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You better watch out
You better beware
They're coming from all sides of the country
You better beware

Return of the rat
No, no, no, no!

You better confess
You had better confess
You start to confess and see them through it
You better confess

Rio
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow!

Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch that mirror way out west
You know you're something special
And you look like you're the best

Her name is rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh rio rio dance across the rio grande

I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on tv
Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you

Hey now look at that did he nearly run you down
at the end of the drive the lawmen arrive you make me feel
Alive, alive, alive

I'll take my chance cause luck is on my side
I tell you something I know what you're thinking
I tell you something I know what you're thinking

Her name is rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh rio rio dance across the rio grande

Her name is rio she don't need to understand
I might find her if I'm looking like I can
Oh rio rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the rio grande

Originally by Duran Duran. Nirvana's cover has not surfaced yet.

Run, Rabbit, Run
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I looked you in the eye
I knew it was time for good-bye
You were the only one I had around
But you couldn't keep your feet on the ground

Run rabbit run
But what's that you're runnin' for
Run rabbit run
You ain't gonna run no more

Bye bye baby, bye bye bird!

Thought the cold sidewalk stones
Broke your little brittle bones
I know you were already dead
When the truck rolled over your head

Bye bye baby, bye bye bird!

Originally by Smack. Lyrics courtesy of Anssi.

Sappy
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And if you say your prayers
You will make God happy
And if you do what's true
You will make me happy
I'll keep you in a jar
And you will seem happy
I'll give you breathing holes
You will think you're happy, now

You're in a laundry room
You're in a laundry room
You're in a laundry room

And if you save yourself
You will make him happy
He'll bring you fine rewards
Then you will feel happy
I'll keep you in my room
I'm sure you'll be happy
And if you save your soul
You will think you're happy now

You're in a laundry room
You're in a laundry room
You're in a laundry room
You're in a laundry room

Early version of "Sappy".

Sappy [No Alternative]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And if you save yourself
You will make him happy
He'll keep you in a jar
And you'll think you're happy
He'll give you breathing holes
And you'll think you're happy
He'll cover you with grass
And you'll think you're happy now

You're really in a laundry room
You're really in a laundry room
The clue just came to you, oh

And if you cut yourself (Alt: And if you kill yourself)
You will think you're happy
He'll keep you in a jar
Then you'll make him happy
He'll give you breathing holes
Then you'll think you're happy
He'll cover you with grass
Then you'll think you're happy now

You're really in a laundry room
You're really in a laundry room
The clue that came to you, oh

You're really in a laundry room
You're really in a laundry room
The clue that came to you, oh

And if you fool yourself
You will make him happy
He'll keep you in a jar
Then you'll think you're happy
He'll give you breathing holes
Then you will seem happy
You'll wallow in his shit
Then you'll think you're happy now

You're really in a laundry room
You're really in a laundry room
You're really in a laundry room
The clue that came to you, oh

Late version of "Sappy". From "No Alternative" compilation.

Spank Thru
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There's a soft pretentious (Alt: relentless) mountains (Alt: This song is for lovers out there)
Listen (Alt: glisten) in the light of the trees (Alt: And the little light in the trees)
And the flowers sing in D minor (Alt: And all the flowers have gingivitus)
And the birds fly happily

We're together once again my love
I need you back, oh baby baby

I can't explain just why we lost it from the start
Living without you girl, you'll only break my heart...

I can feel it, I can hold it
I can bend it I can shape it, I can mold it
I can cut it, I can taste it
I can spank it, beat it, masturbate it

I been looking for day glo
Always hearing the same ol'
Say you want to be faithful
I can make it do things you wouldn't think it ever could
