The devil appeared like Disney through the steam in the street
Showin’ me a hand I knew even Dreamworks couldn’t beat
I felt his hot breath on my neck as I dove into the heat
It’s so hard to be a saint when you’re just a mouse

Quark's nightclub, an old friend on the edge of the demilitarized zone
The neon sign spinning round
Like a cross over the lost and found
The fluorescent lights flick over Rom's grill
A Bajoran brings the coffee and asks "Fill?"
and says "latinum for your thoughts now my boy, Bill"

Dynamite’s in the belfry playin’ with the bats
Little Gun’s downtown in front of Woolworth’s
tryin’ out his attitude on all the cats
Papa’s on the corner waitin’ for the bus
Mama she’s home in the window rolling blunts for us

Crazy Vinny and his agent man
Were back in the alley tradin' hands
'Long came Wild Turtle with his friend E-Man
All duded up for Saturday night
Well, Turtle slammed on his coaster brakes
And said, "Anybody wanna go on up to Greasy Lake?
It's this club down on the dark side of Route 88
I got phone full of hos, so let's

I swear I was never that way even when I really cracked
Didn’t you think I knew that you were born with the power of a locomotive
Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound?
And your Chelsea suicide with no apparent motive
You could laugh and cry in a single sound

Tonight, Wendy, we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all of the madness in the Overlook Hotel
Someday, girl, I don't know when
We'll get out of this place and we'll walk in the sun
But til then
Here's my ax, Wendy you'd better run.

Now I want some answers, mister, I need to know
I hear all the talk but I don't know what you're sayin'
But I think I got a good idea of the game that you're playin'

She drove down to Tampa
In an Eldorado Grand
She wrote back, Dear Mama
Life is just heaven in the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
From small effects, Mama, big effects one day come

Don't you know that I danced
I danced till a quarter to three
With the help, last night, of DJ Roomba?
He was swingin' on the floor with the girls of blue
And I was dancin' all over the room

Me
Steve except sometimes Steve is out being an actor
Nils
Tom
Soozie
Garry if Garry ever played guitar which he can we just don't really need him
Clarence's ghost
Danny's ghost
Patti (don't tell Patti, my couch isn't very comfy)

When I'm out on the Newswire, I talk the way I wanna talk.

I believe you mean third-most-important guitarist in the E Street Band Tom Morello.

I see strange flashes in the sky up above
Gonna spend the night at the drive-in with the one that I love
At dusk the star wars all appear on the screen
Yeah, just like they do each night in my dreams

They say Eve tempted Adam with an Apple 1
But man I ain't going for that
I know it was her pink Cadillac

What is this land, the newswire, so many comment there
I'm going now while this is still fun, my fan club meet me there
Wish me luck and upvotes, I'll send for you when I can
And we'll make our home in the Newswire land

So Vince keeps a little secret down deep inside his dresser drawer
For dealing with the heat he's feelin' out on the studio floor
No matter where he acts he feels he's never out of danger
So the comfort that he keeps a chrome-plated-snub-nose-thirty-two

Those first nervous evenings of marbles and gin
The lost smell on your breath as I helped you get them in
The rush of your lips, the feel of the games
The thousands of marbles, the devil's arcade

My name is Joe Grey, I work for the state
I'm a sergeant out of Bellingham
Out of barracks number 8
I always done an honest job
As honest as I could
I got a brother named Christian,
And Christian ain't no good

Well my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in the Overlook hotel downtown
Well when I was a lobby boy he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
