in the night, black thoughts, alone
i sit by the bed and dream
i drink in memories
some make me smile
some make me scream
and the music comes out
and i feel so many things
searching for the word

and solitude calls me from afar
for a boy and his thoughts are never truly alone
in blackness

by the light of this black lamp
i lie on the bed and scram
i’m drowning in memories
some make me smile
some make me dream
and the music comes out
and i feel so many things
searching for the word

here’s a message from the boys of all
not to be rude but when it comes to food
there’s really only one place you can go -
go to alfredos, in lomita

even the russians go to alfredo’s
even the martians go to alfredo’s
my heart yearns for you alfredo
my heart burns for you alfredo
romance is in the air
you’ll always find us there

if my allculations are correct
the dishwasher is a victim of much neglect

our name is all and we wrote this song
it’s not very good, people say it’s too long
well listen up alfredo, this is for you
the reason why we wrote this is to get some free food!

we want: massive enchiladas with rice and beans!
we want: two beef tacos, #10 that means!
we want: chicken tostadas, lots of beans and rice!
we want: lots of cokes and lots of ice!

and another thing, alfredo -
we’re all - we practically live here
we want you to stay open
595 hours a day
765 days a year
7 weeks a month
645 minutes an hour
1733 pacific coast highway, in lomita, 90717
534-9924 - give ‘em a call

we don’t speak spanish
we just speak food
because we’re all
and that’s all we do

this is no place to take a chick
the food is great but she might get sick
it’s just a hole in the wall
but it’s good enough for all!!!

i think of all the things we did
back when we were alive
i watched around the corner
as you rode up on your bike
i sat with you and held your hand
when movies made you cry
i think of all the things we did
back when we were alive

so many things to believe in
so much room to spread our wings
the joy we found in every little thing

i never will forget the day
you heard your brother died
i’m sorry now i couldnt help more
while you sat and cried
the letters that you sent me
that summer you were gone
i couldnt wait for your return
i couldnt wait that long

swimming holes to sing in
open fields we’d go to dream
all the joy we found
in every little thing
every little thing

i think of all the things we did
back when we were alive
when we made love i held you close
and kissed you when you cried
im sorry that it had to end
im sorry youre not mine
ill be with you until the end
in dreams of you tonight
ill be with you until the end
in dreams of you tonight
i think of all the things we did
back when we were alive

she’s got pictures scattered on the floor
scattered pictures from the days of yore
she’s got letters from a boy obsessed,
you had me on a string, had me at my best

you can’t leave the faith till you die
she won’t leave that men when he cries
you can never leave the church,
and she’ll never leave me anymore

she’s got promises of a perfect time,
when i’d say anything to make you mine
and she’s got faith in the things i say
i made you a promise, and the world
can’t take it away

she can’t move she knows for sure,
i’ve got the key to the after world for
this girl

i spent all my nickels and dimes, we
were lovers when we had the time to
kiss girls

my devastation asks no questions,
my failure leaves no one to blame
she’s got pictures, promises to seal the fate,
and i’ve got to face the fact
it’s not too late,

she says it’s not too late

when i was young i wallowed in none
you know none is no way to be
you must go for all
go for all and all will set you free

if you continue to wallow in noneconcious and hollow
nonetheless go for all and allness will follow
all, like gravity, is there all the time
applehead newton was a figment of mind
run far and wide but you can’t hide
we’re all - we got no sense of pride!
we won’t exercise undue force
or engage in somenatious intercourse

allulations to the all-worthy
all is all you need
it’s the fifth primary colour
it’s the number between zero and infinity
some would have you settle for itself
when all is in your grasp

when i was young i wallowed in none
you know none is no way to be
now i go for all!
go for all and all will set you free

don’t mistake all for love or hate
it’s not like any other mental state
it’s the total extent, when nothing else remains
the utmost possible of possible gains
there’ll be no selfishness, evil, or greed
all don’t care about your race or creed
all is all you have to do
cause anything else would be a.u.
i was a non entity once
then i receive a revallution
it made me re evalluate my way of life
i allivated my outlook
some daid i had allterior motives
they were right
my life started all over again
it’s all up to you
but are you up to all?
ye must quest all
lest ye become somefull
or something of a noneskull
saying something that is nonesense
