21st Century Real Gone Blues
I got the 21st century real gone blues
I self medicate myself with drugs and booze
Dumbing down down has hit the ground running
Sometimes it feels like the apocalypse is coming
This world is killing me and all I wanna’ do is see my baby
Bad people drilling me and all I wanna’ do is to see my baby
These modern mores could drive a grown man crazy
That state and shape of things just brings me down
And I don’t believe in, no higher being
It’s just me and she in this stinking town
Surrounded by all these clowns
I got the 21st century real gone blues
Like the Heartbreakers I was born to lose
Can’t hear myself think with the right wing screaming
There really is no future in England’s dreaming
This world is vexing me and all I really wanna’ do is see my baby
Bad people hexing me and all I wanna’ do is to see my baby
These modern mores could drive a grown man crazy
That state and shape of things just brings me down
And I don’t believe in, remain or leaving
Either way we’re on a suicide mission
We the masses, we just didn’t pay enough attention
I walked the walk but the talk I blagged
See I can’t punch my way out of a paper bag
And I’m gonna’ need more muscle if I’m to take on
The machinations of capitalism
And everything around here that is fundamentally wrong
These blues are real and gone
This world is stressing me and all I really wanna’ do is see my baby
Bad people messing with me and all I wanna’ do is to see my baby
These modern mores could drive a grown man crazy
That state and shape of things just brings me down]
And I don’t believe in, extremist thinking
I was always a sucker for common ground
These days it can’t be found
So I’m going underground

Missing a Girl
I guess like a lot of folk who came before me
I just wanted someone to adore me
I just wanted my heart to be stolen
Lovers came and lovers went
Insults wrapped in compliments
Still believing in the sanctity of hanging out
And I’m not lonely and I’m not sad
It’s just tonight I’m missing a girl that I once had
Two people can’t always live up to
The standards of a hardcore crew
Too many complicated, venerated ideals
You can’t predict how it will end
Stay hot to trot or fair-weather friends
When you mix patriarchy, anarchy and Marxist feminism
And I’m not lonely and I’m not sad
It’s just tonight I’m missing a girl that I once had
And I’m not lonely and I’m not sad
It’s just tonight I’m missing a girl
Tonight I’m missing a girl
Tonight I’m missing a girl that I once had
