Sometimes it seems like it's never enough
Like someone's telling me that I should give up
Seems like every single move's a mistake
Getting beat up by a brand new day
Rise and shine, join the race
Hauling ass but it feels like I'm running in place
Just when I thought I was winning I'm
Banging my head against the wall
Banging my head against the wall
Banging my head against the wall
I keep going 'til one of us falls
I'm hauling ass but I'm behind the bus
I got a maybe but I needed a must
Seems like every single move's a mistake
Getting beat up by a brand new day
Rise and shine, join the race
Hauling ass but it feels like I'm running in place
Just when I thought I was winning I'm
Banging my head against the wall
Banging my head against the wall
Banging my head against the wall
I keep going 'til one of us falls
(solo)
Banging my head against the wall
Banging my head against the wall
Banging my head against the wall
Rise and shine, join the race
Hauling ass but it feels like I'm running in place
Rise and shine, join the race
Hauling ass but it feels like I'm running in...
Just when I thought I was winning I'm
Just when I thought I was winning I'm
Just when I thought

As I walk through this world it's full of chumps like you
What happens to a brain to make it act like you?
I know I've said sometimes you live and let live too
But that was bullshit and I know it 'cause of you
I wanna see some action, gonna bring you down,
Action, it's your turn right now
Action, do you see my point of view
When I catch up to you I'll even up the score
It's such a small world and I'll get my chance fo sho
Well I know I've said sometimes we live and let live too
But that was bullshit and I know it 'cause of you
I wanna see some action, gonna bring you down,
Action, it's your turn right now
Action, do you see my point of view

Hey hey Mr. DJ, same shit you played yesterday
And another lousy segue from the voice above the ashtray
I dowanna hear a replay, sucked the first time anyway
I dowanna hear it on the radio
I would rather drive downtown
See it live at the rock 'n' roll show
Now it's just one station for the entire nation
There is nothing on the airwaves that's even gonna phase me
Turn it off turn it off turn it off! Turn it off turn it off turn it off!
I dowanna hear it on the radio
I would rather drive downtown
See it live at the rock 'n' roll show

It's A Bitch

Let me take you back to Paradise City
Smokin' jays at lunch in big orange Chevy
Sellin' blood for gas, and cigarettes and Mickey's
Five for 5 at the Leemart Deli
When summer days and smoke displays were yours for the takin
Now you're never gonna get another summer vacation but uh
Suddenly it's time to figure out your station
It's a Bitch
Triple Peach is better than a job application
And you're still living in your parents' basement
Dad is on your ass 'cause you don't do nuthin' so you
Move into your van for the summer
Park it out back where you don't get bothered
When your parents go to work you sneak in and take a shower but uh
Suddenly it's time to figure out your station
It's a Bitch
Now you fought like hell when they had you in shackles
Now the chains are off it's impossible to manage
Bought everything that your heroes had to sell and now
Who you gonna fight when you're in here by yourself
It's a Bitch
(Steven, your mom's on the phone)

Somewhere out in New Mexico
She is listening to the radio
The sun it shines so warm on her face she has to close her eyes.
Spent a fortune in the Twilight Zone
Too ashamed to use the telephone
Surrounded by the nothing that she called her own
Well the glass is half full but it feels half empty
Pages are blank on the letters she's sending
Hellos are ending and goodbyes are filling her mind
Honeybee just might sting
Tastes like sugar but it's saccharine
Skinny dip, jump right in
Tastes like sugar but it's saccharine
There's no address on a rolling stone
No moss grown on a mobile home
So lock the door and say goodbye to the telephone
When the glass is half full but it feels half empty
Pages are blank on the letters she's sending
Hellos are ending, goodbyes are filling her mind
Honeybee just might sting
Tastes like sugar but it's saccharine
Skinny dip, jump right in
Tastes like sugar but it's saccharine
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
(solo)
Well the glass is half full but it feels half empty

Hellos are ending, goodbyes are filling her mind
Honeybee just might sting
Tastes like sugar but it's saccharine
Skinny dip, jump right in
Tastes like sugar but it's saccharine
Spirits wash down your sins
Tastes like sugar but it's saccharine
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Cheating Death

Well life's a game and each day's a hand
And every night you deal again
But win or lose, with every breath
You're burning out and cheating death
Close your eyes, wish for something more
Take a swing, even up the score
With every move and every breath
You're burning out and cheating death
Well luck runs cold and luck runs hot
All the world's a stage but what's the plot?
Don't waste your time with suicide
'Cause cheating death is worth the ride
Close your eyes, wish for something more
Take a swing, even up the score
With every move and every breath
You're burning out and cheating death
(solo)
Close your eyes, wish for something more
Take a swing, even up the score
With every move and every breath
You're burning out and cheating death

I hung up 16 times today, I'm hung up on the things you say
I don't bother knockin' nah I just walk in
Ooohh this party's rockin?
It's a tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here
A tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here now
Are you cold 'cause I'm here?
Well damn I wish it was the beer
It's flat and stale and cheap
Or are those memories that I keep?
It's a tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here
A tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here now
Filthy mouths and ashtrays
I've had my fifth beer, am I still here?
Bathroom breaks and heartaches
And God I wish I could stop talking...
It's a tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here
A tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here now
Well I hung up 16 times today, I'm hung up on the things you say
They're flat, stale and cheap, or are those memories that i keep
It's a tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here
A tossup, a tossup
If I could sleep I wouldn't be here now

Let's Ball

It's another night of teenage drama
With your last word I insert a comma
There's another fight waiting on the heels of this one
Now you hate my guts but I don't care
So come on take off your underwear
We can pick it up tomorrow on the telephone
And the future's there for us to call
Be honest I don't care at all
I've got a place where we can fall tonight
So c'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
c'mon, c'mon, c'mon... well allright
When we got the dime we drink and smoke
And we go to work 'cause we're stinkin'broke
But you get one ride and baby we paid for this one
So before someone looks at the clock
I suggest we better just take stock
There's another drink
Waiting on the heels of this one
And the future's there for us to call
Be honest I don't care at all
I've got a place where we can fall tonight
So c'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
c'mon, c'mon, c'mon... well allright
(solo)
So c'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
(let's ball, let's ball, let's ball)
C'mon let's ball, c'mon let's ball, c'mon
c'mon, c'mon, c'mon... well allright

One day I thought I'd be a movie star
Impress them with my stunning parts
Can't imagine lovin' nothing more than this
But Thursday's waiters still perform
In Wednesday evening's uniform
Worried 'bout the way they used to fit
Oh I never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself I'd find myself I'd find myself like this
That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it
One day I thought I'll be a move star
My headshot hangs behind the bar
Can't imagine lovin' notihin' more than this
Seven nights at Seven Brothers
Lunatics hide undercover
Out back there's another one to twist
But I never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself so fucked up
Never though I'd find myself
I'd find myself I'd find myself I'd find myself like this
That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
That's what happens when it rains
Wanna scream out loud when you're down and out
That's what happens when it
Hey!!!!!!

The Lincolns UK Detroit, Michigan
Hailed as “…arena rock through a Pignose amp..” The Lincolns UK draw on early British & US punk, Cheap Trick & AC/DC, and
filter it through the awesome early Replacements/Minneapolis vibe, but still manage to sound distinctly “Detroit”.
The band is the brainchild of artist/actor/powercouple Marc & Jennifer Nischan, and filmmaker Mikey Brown, who met through Planet Ant Theatre.
