Somethin' To Say

  Smoke and mirrors, whiskey
              and cream.
  And somethin' keeps remindin' me,
   don't forget about your dreams!
                                 
  Midnight parties,
        where I'm the only guest.
  And a body can't get no sleep,
  when a mind refuses to rest.

  I've got a hundred guitars,
      but I ain't got time to play!
  I've exceeded my excess,
    but I've still got somethin' to say,

 I didn't make the show one night,
man I, couldn't face the crowd.
 I couldn't take the heat of the lights,
and the guitars was too damn loud.

 Well I got people tearin' at my clothes,
 everybody want a piece of my art.
 I had to copyright my soul,
so the greedy wouldn't steal my heart.

And now another sound check,
We'll get a check for another sound.
But don't get me wrong, it ain't about the pay
We still got somethin' to say,
we still have somethin' to say!

And don't forget I sing for you!
And I won't quit until your through.
Like a bell, my words is ringin' true,
'Cause that's what I was born to do,
Yeah! That's what I was born to do.

     Instrumental:

And now we step on the tour bus,
and , take that lonesome ride.
Another crowd is waitin' for us,
and we got knothin' to hide.

 I feel the road beneath my bed
as we glide on through the night.
I still hear what the last crowd said.
Yeah, I guess we got it right.

So stand in line and buy your fare
 We'll see you in a day.
You best believe we sure as hell care
That you still got somethin' to say,
yeah, you still got somethin' to say.

And don't forget I sing for you!
And I won't quit until your through.
 Like a bell, my words is ringin' true,
 Cause that's what I was born to do,
 Yeah! That's what I was born to do.

                outro:      We still got somethin' to say,
                                     we still got somethin' to say,
                                     we still got somethin' to say,
                                     we still got somethin' to say!
                                     And we're gonna say it~!
