It's been a long, long time Since I've felt alive It's been just three days But it's still too much We should never go out We should stay inside Pull the curtains down And stay inside Turn down the lights Turn down the lights And stay inside Turn down the lights And never go out It's been a long, long time Since I've felt alive So now I'm gonna get up Spit out all the pain that I got 'cause right now I just feel Like always want to feel Gimme your hand, babe I'll pull the curtains down Turn down the lights And stay inside Turn down the lights And never go out Do you understand what we're trying to say I mean Can you really dig all this shit and all this noise Well, if you don't You know what you should do You should Roll with Detroit Roll with Detroit Roll with Detroit Roll with Detroit Roll, babe roll Throw away everything you know All the god damn Rolling Stones And Led Zepellin and Muddy Waters and Bob Dylan And everything you hear on the TV and on the radio And all the folk and blues and jazz You know what you should do Roll with Detroit Throw away Mozart and Beethoven and Tchaikovsky And roll babe, roll with Detroit Turn down the lights And stay inside Turn down the lights Babe never go out Turn down the lights Fuckin' turn down the lights And never go out

Tell me something, boss Can I get this weekend off Or do I Need to share Links on Twitter Where you're naked in bed Gotta tell you something, boss I know you're A pornstar But it's all acting boss Where money rolls No one cares for your soul You feel the pleasure Can you pay the cost When everything's falling apart I'm a guy who believes in love I've had enough Paid my dues I've done my time Paid my dues Keep on fucking boss You're so cool Keep on fucking boss You're so cool I'm gonna use my soul Get myself A band that is strong Everytime the riff rushes out Maybe then you'll realize You've been livin' a damn lie Maybe then you'll realize I've had enough Paid my dues I've done my time Paid my dues Keep on fucking boss You're so cool Keep on fucking boss

When he was sixty four He just left Detroit When he was sixty four He just left Detroit Since you've been gone Dear Malcolm Australia went down Their Sun went down in darkness Everything was covered with darkness When he was sixty four He just left Detroit Today we're singin' for you, dear son Today we're singin' for you I went down down to Elysian Fields And I want me some kangaroos And go howl with them And go riding down And you go out to the palma tree You better get some kangaroos Up in heaven Waiting for you Dear Malcolm You were not in the middle Always around Warm and gentle sound baybe Malcolm up in the sky I can go twice as high Malcolm up in the sky We can go twice as high When he was sixty four He just left Detroit Today we're singin' for you, dear son Today we're singin' for you

I always thought that I knew What this world was all about Always thought that I knew What this world was all albout Now I see that I was wrong Now I see that I was mistreated All the people around me They are so untrue Stop what you do Get on up, get on up Stop what you do Get on up, get on up Stop what you do And better listen to Motor City Funk Motor City Funk Now I see I do all the things that I used to do When I was a little child It all comes right back to me Now I see I do all the things that I used to do So stop just what you're doin' baybe Stop there what you're doin' now Stop what you do Get on up, get on up Stop what you do Get on up, get on up Stop what you do And better listen to Motor City Funk You better change your evil ways You better think on what's on the inside Forget about what your outside appearance looks like Stop what you do Get on up, get on up Stop what you do Get on up, get on up Stop what you do And better listen to Motor City Funk Motor City Funk

We've been on Mars Don't know our hearts And we conquered everything Every jungle, every sea We've been on Mars Don't know our hearts We can swim, we can fly Can look up and touch the sky When you look up What do you see You see the stars They shine so bright You see your soul Do you see laughter Child-like, God-like laughter Gimme your hand Don't be afraid Don't be afraid Just gimme your hand And try to feel Somethin' real Try to feel Somethin' real I want to pull my heart out And then put my hand in it And watch it bleed Watch it fall to the ground We've been on Mars Don't know our hearts And we conquered everything Every jungle, every sea We traveled down We traveled way down below We traveled down Don't know our hearts We're so full of hateridge We're so full of hateridge Can we twist and turn it Turn it into love Turn it into love Turn it into love Turn it into love And try to feel Somethin' real Try to feel Somethin' real I want to pull my heart out And then put my hand in it And watch it bleed Watch it fall to the ground We've been on Mars Don't know our hearts And stop usin' technology Throw your cellphone away Rip off your camera Throw your cellphone away Don't do nothing Stop & smell & breathe And just do nothing See, we've been on Mars Don't know our hearts Don't know our minds We don't know nothing We live in a lie Big, fat lie We live in a lie The only medicine is For you to try to feel And try to feel Somethin' real Try to feel Somethin' real I want to pull my heart out And then put my hand in it And watch it bleed Watch it fall to the ground And then I'll take my own blood And then put it on your head And we could dance Bare naked In a sacred moonlight Try to feel Somethin' real Try to god damn feel Somethin' real Somethin' real

Saint Vin 03:23
He curses, he gambles He lies, he cheats He don't say hello Well baybe, he drinks He's friends with ladies of the night He gets up late His house is a mess He don't care for himself Nobody knows him Neighbours only know his name They say he's weird Sittin' on a porch Listenin' to Mr. D Has a sign on his head „Avoid“ it says He's a good man Others can't see He's a good man He's a good man Eyes can't see Saint Vin His wife is sick It's been 8 years now Vin visits her and makes her laugh He does her laundry She doesn't remember him His cat is eating better food than him Keeps his goodness like a secret I'll call him He's a good man Others can't see He's a good man He's a good man Eyes can't see Saint Vin

Where can I put my ash It's time to tell the tale of Purple Johnny, babe Purple Johnny cleanin' his gun Gettin' ready to shoot at the sun Purple Johnny waxin' his shoes His boat is ready For a cruise at the moon Forsaken child with no home Without a place he can call his own When he was left for the first time alone He sprayed with purple all of his walls Suddenly he felt joy He was calm for the first time Later in school he loved to draw Sky and stars he painted purple, you know Teacher was not happy, wasn't satisfyed Sky is blue and yellow is sun, little Johnny Don't fucking fool around Johnny Don't fool around He was sad but up with a plan He's gonna hijack the plane The fastest one with rocket on If you can see it, dreams will come true Purple Johnny died for you All cans are filled to the top With purple colour he saved through his life Purple Johnny gonna fly to the sun He doesn't care for the dangers of the journey He's doing it for the beauty Johnny never made it to sun A star ate him Star with no name, with no shine Sun remained yellow, still shines bright But in the night, when everything's dark and clear You can see that purple spot If you can see it, dreams will come true Purple Johnny died for you

Extreme disorder All over Detroit Federal troops are on the ground Motherfuckers all around He says: "Where you runnin' down here boi What you were doin' in that hotel It ain’t polite to hang out with whites Now you’re gonna end up dead" Order must be restored Yells president Johnson All laws are filled with flaws But that motherfucker don’t seem to know cause’ He thinks about the pieces and pawns On a chessboard White gotta have more luck They got that right just from the start Shoot first then eat heart Order must be restored Yells president Johnson All laws are filled with flaws But that motherfucker don’t seem to know because He thinks about the pieces and pawns On a chessboard White gotta have more luck They got that right just from the start Shoot first then eat heart Order must be destroyed

Farewell my friend Gonna miss you everyday Thousand miles away Trying to remember Every second we spent Makin’ music always the same So we can put it on a record That everybody can play Big dreams my friend Are never too late We’re gonna hit it one day Ride those dolphins across the bay In favorite local bar Detroit brothers are playin' it loud Favorite local bar Farewell my friend Gonna miss you everyday Farewell my friend Gonna miss you Chain smokin’ blindness I can’t even see them chains This love is so damn hard on me I need to break free This time I need To say goodbye This time I need To say goodbye Farewell my friend Gonna miss you everyday Farewell my friend Gonna miss you

Forgive me darlin' I have sinned Forgive me I have sinned Always wanted everything Just for me Forgive me I have sinned Always went by With the rules 'cause I thought that it was the best For me to do When I was seventeen I quit goin' to church Forgive me darlin' I have sinned Forgive me darlin' I have sinned Now I see I was wrong Now I see I was blind All I had to was pray And be thankful For each and every day Forgive me darlin' I have sinned
