Mudhoney Album

Baby, can you dig the light?
This is the end of the tunnel
I always heard there'd be some sort of light
I finally reached the end of the tunnel
I always thought I'd see some kind of light
I want
Where is the light?


And there is no light
Where is the light?
I always hoped there'd be light
I want the light

Sowin' the seeds of discontentment
Spillin' milk all over your misspent youth
Nurture your crop with blind resentment
All your cryin' can't change the truth

The straight life, baby, has taken its toll
Confined your mind and stolen your soul

Your shit don't stink now that you're livin' the straight life
Lookin' so cute in that grown-up's suit
Chasin' down all your lost and wasted time
You don't care who the fuck you screw

The straight life, baby, has taken its toll
Confined your mind and stolen your soul

You reap just what you sow
If you reap anything at all
I let my wild weeds grow
I hope they choke your rotten crop

The straight life, baby, has taken its toll
Confined your mind and stolen your soul

You look good, as a matter of factYou'd look great in a giant vatYou look good enough to eatStomping grapes up to your knees
I'll drink the wine squeezed from your vines'Till I'm much too drunk to speakAnd I won't stop 'till we're partners in crime
Come to where the flavor isGrinning wide with purple teethI wanna comeCome to where the flavor isTo where the flavor isI understand why the Earth quakesAnd tries to open upYou leave a taste with every step you takeBut for this world that ain't enough
Come to where the flavor is

Come to where the flavor isLooking in your eyes I get mesmerizedI wanna comeWider than the oceansNew horizons openC'mon baby, let me take a biteYou know you make me feel all right
You look good, that's a matter of truthYes you're quite the toothsome treatYou taste great, with or without fruit
I'm gonna start down at your feetCome to where the flavor isCome to where the flavor isI'm gonna comeTo where the flavor is

It's not as bad as it's been
I don't remember, exactly when
Still it's not as good as it used to be
Shifting sands drift like memories

Yeah I'm a winner 'cause I've got nothing left to lose
Been wrung through the wringer
And spit out a winner

I can still see you standing in the doorway
Everything went white when you walked away
The sky behind you was clear and the sun was high
My eyes were blinded, my mind went clear and I felt all right


And spit out a winner
Yeah I'm a winner 'cause I've got nothing left to lose
Been wrung through the wringer

I got nothing and that's fine with me

I got nothing and I feel all right
Been wrung through the wringer
And spit out a winner
I got nothing I got nothing and I feel free
Yeah I'm a winner 'cause I've got nothing left to lose

Our time is coming
Here comes our time
Our time is now
This is our time

They say that time is tight
Well, we're tight too
Yeah, we know just what we gotta do
They say that times are tough
They're flying down below
They're crawling overhead

Still they don't know
They can see though walls
Our time is coming


Here comes our time
Our time is now

This is our time
We choose neither
No we're not with you
Given two lousy choices
We're not with them either
Our time is coming
Here comes our time

Our time is now
This is our time

First thing I remember baby, you came floating by
And now my heart pounds out a brand new beat
I lost touch with everything I used to be
Everything before that belongs to someone else's life

You got me cryin' for ya baby
You got me dyin' for it baby
Oh Lord, what else can I do?

You know I'm tryin' to get through
Next thing I know, you dropped out of sight


Now I see you every time I close my eyes
Moving so smoothly along the hot concrete
The way you move could make tonight complete
You got me dyin' for it baby
You know I'm tryin' to get through

You got me cryin' for ya baby
Oh Lord, what else can I do?

I'm always watching
From outside
I've been living like this
All my life
I've changed my mind
That I want in
Take you by surprise
When you do my in

Takes an inside job to make it easy
When it's hard
Takes an inside job to make it easy
When it's hard

It takes an inside job
To really get things done
You got to get inside
To make the changes come
You come around, You call out loud
And hold me tight, til the shit comes down

Takes an inside job to make it easy
When it's hard
Takes an inside job to make it easy
When it's hard

Oh!
Oh! Let me in, Let me in
Come on Let me in, Let me in
Takes an inside job to make it easy when its hard
Let me in, Yeah
Come on Let me in
You gotta let me in
Takes an inside job to make it easy when it's hard
Takes an inside job to make it easy when it's hard
Takes an inside job to make it easy when it's hard
Takes an inside job to make it easy when it's hard

When the big picture makes you feel small
And your good friends are good for nothing at all

Don't pretend that it's not your fault
You gotta take it like a man
When you lash out against society
And your cell-mate says, "You belong to me"
Take it like a man
You gotta take it like a man
Take it like a man
And find yourself in penetentiary

When you can't make your prick get hard


Once you realize that you're not in charge
It makes your codpiece feel a little too large
You gotta fake it like a man
Fake it like a man

When your big-ass truck keeps on breaking down
You wanna holler but you can't make a sound
And your big-barreled gun misfires every round
Take it like a manYou gotta take it like a man

Going in to the smallest center
And peel away every layer
Just to look it deep in the eye
Going out to the deepest space
'Till there's no place left to hide
Just to fill it with my breath
The fact that there's no vacuum left
The stars and I will celebrate
I walk, I walk, yeah I walk the crooked and wide
Don't care if it's wrong

Don't care if it's right
Gonna turn every corner
Yeah, I know I'm going n circles
Just to see what's around the bend


I'm in no hurry to get to the end

Don't care if it's wrong Don't care if it's right
You can keep the straight and narrow

I walk, I walk, yeah I walk the crooked and wide
I won't take that well-worn path
Just the thought bores me to the marrow

Don't care if it's wrong
I don't care about no-one's wrath
I walk, I walk, yeah I walk the crooked and wideDon't care if it's right

Don't hand me that line about Transubstantiation
I'm not buyin' and I'm running out of patience

I can't afford to believe your kind of Truth
Redirecting energies, I'm a shaker, I'm a mover
The Truth is plain to see, I'm a Sonic Transducer
There aint nothing, no, I won't misuse

We can turn the tide with
The time is right for Sonic Infusion
Sonic Infusion
It aint too late to make 'em sing
Permeate everything
Sonic Infusion
Penetrate and pull the strings

They think we don't exist since we've become Translucent


They feel just what they miss and it adds to their confusion
They can't afford to believe our kind of Truth

Hidden from our enemies, intercepting their Transmissions
There ain't nothing, No, we won't misuse
Rewriting History, transmitting our revisions

We can turn the tide with
The time is right for Sonic Infusion
Permeate everything
Sonic Infusion
Sonic InfusionPenetrate and pull the strings
It aint too late to make 'em sing
