Spendin' Money
Bought it at the five and dime
Played it till my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69
Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Joey got married
I should've known we'd never get far
Oh when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life
Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's where I met you - yooh
Standin'
Get Me Out
Get up early every morning just to put your make up on
The wardrobe's full of useless clothes, your winter coats are gone
The jackal pack is feeding, the motorway sweeps down
The council tries to bribe the rich just to stay in town
Chorus: Get me out, get me out of this place
Get me out of this trap, get me out of my brain
Ysidro down to Melbourne, the pressure starts to build
The bullets fly at random when you least expect they will
Everybody feels guilty so anyone can pay
I'm just surprised it doesn't happen every bloody day
Chorus: Get me out, get me out of this place
Get me out of this trap, get me out of my brain
So here come the nineties, the temperature is rising
I cannot seem to lose the stains when I wash my hands
One world is rising and one world is dying
And one has got it's precious head buried in the sand
Chorus: Get me out, get me out of this place
Get me out of this trap, get me out of my brain
