GEFFEN Lyrics
There's two blondes from the village
They're singing love to one another
at the cat club they really sucked
but one of them is Cher's daughter
and they were dressed as boy and girl
and they sang songs from yester year
they received not one applause
But I know why Geffen had a cause
It's Sonny's daughter that's the reason why
When she sings people want to cry
But Geffen says we're gonna grow with you
Do what we say and we'll make some loot
You can sleep with each other
We'll keep it secret not a bother
Your Mom's a star and you'll be one
But you won't do it just for the fun
We don't care about your talent
We just care who's your parents
We're just into making money
and make you superstar phonies
These two blonde's from the village
Are gonna be Geffen superstars
It doesn't matter what you do
It doesn't matter if you work so hard
Cause we don't care about your talent
We just care who's yours parents
TORRENT Lyrics
You grow up to respect your elders
Given the ability to stem the torrent
Set the way you want to expire
But you fall to the lot of the boring
Stop boozing yourself to a sponge
Say it to me and waste the air in your lungs
I can live my life the way I want
and you can't take away my rights
I can not do what they want me to do
I can not say what they want me to say
They want you to sign to slavery
Yet be defined as a man of action
You can shove the forty hour week
I just need enough for libation
You gave me the ability to stem the torrent?
I'm to grow up and respect my elders?
Well I'll set the way I want to expire
and you can't take away my rights
You grow up to respect your elders
Given the ability to stem the torrent
Set the way you want to expire
But you fall to the lot of the boring
You fall to the lot of the boring
