Track Name: 2000 Boy: Want to know just where you take me
Want to know just where you're from
Want to see your new direction
One that keeps me on the run

Walking down the street I hear it
Not your jingle jangle way
Once it became quite familiar
Brought me to your present day

Take me to your show
Someday find your rhythm
Your 2000 Boy
Showing that your with it

Come with me and I could show you
What it really means to be
Loner with a fascination
Hold on to your lucid dream

Find myself in times of worry
Am I what I seemed to be
Climb out from your mount of disdain
Find out you could let it be

Take me to your show
Someday find your rhythm
Your 2000 Boy
Showing that your with it
Track Name: Rats: Hey buddy would you buy my house?
Hey buddy would you drive my car?
Hey buddy would fuck my wife?
Hey buddy, would you do it?

Yeah, but I can see that you’re just a rat

Hey buddy wanna lease my room?
Hey buddy wanna hug my kids?
Hey buddy wanna fire my guns?
Hey buddy, wanna do it?

Yes, but I can see that you’re just a rat
But I can see that you’re just a rat
Track Name: Blood on the Tracks: Stay on some frequency louds
Running back from the boys downtown
Let me in on some nonsense
Quiet stays on a sunset

But when the train goes out
And I look at the ground
What will I see baby?

Blood on the tracks
(blood on the tracks)
I saw your blood on the tracks baby

On the highway back south
I thought about nothing at all
Letting the swell die down
Acting like no one’s around

But when my shoe’s untied
And I look at the ground
What will I see baby?

Blood on the tracks
(blood on the tracks)
I saw your blood on the tracks baby

Looking to act like a fool
In front of the hospital goons
Thinking of advil baby
I’m taking advil for you
But when my head thumps down
And I look at the ground
What will I see baby?

Blood on the tracks
(blood on the tracks)
I saw your blood on the tracks baby
Track Name: Making Friends: Break your day on mission hillside
Find your San Francisco sunlight
Kind that keeps you feeling just right
You can find you man under the street sign

Pass by people on their doorsteps
I'm just hoping I'm someone important
Stop to wonder what they're thinking
Just to know that I could still be thinking

Wrapped up in the deepest thing that you could think of
Only for a moment you're hoping to forget
You're on your own again
Get tired of making friends like that

Break your day out on the lakeside where you
Find your comfort southern sunlight
Kind that keeps you feeling just right
You can find your man under the street sign

Hold on for the hope it sets in
You can find her later for your next sin
Cut your passions leave you restless
But you can't help feeling kind of reckless

Wrapped up in the deepest thing that you could think of
Only for a moment you're hoping to forget
You're on your own again
Get tired of making friends like that
Track Name: My Boy: Indecision time’s what brought you back to me
All the consequencing, idiocy, bureaucracy
The placements of words that abide to make you upset
And the middle line that draws on your optimist self

For all the stupid lines you wait
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
For all the indifference in place
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
6pm and you made it home alright
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
The police aren’t breaking legs tonight
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy

It’s another wave the one that brought you back in here
And another rant about useless combat streaks
To be back at work from killing time in the waiting room
To be waiting for hours a week and you do it again
And again
And again

For all the stupid lines you wait
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
For all the indifference in place
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
6pm and you made it home alright
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
The police aren’t bashing heads tonight
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy

The clouds that long beneath the stares
The stamps dictate the price of bread
The streets that loom to feel deserved
The poorly rich, the useless heads

Your mother thinks you fight, alright!
Your father thinks you fight, alright!
Your sister thinks you fight, alright!
Your brother’s home, he’s staying home tonight

For all the stupid lines you wait
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
For all the indifference in place
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
6pm and you made it home alright
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
The police aren’t breaking you tonight
My boy, my boy, you go, my boy
Track Name: Vinnie: To see the pattern on your face
Mesmerized by passing days
Just tell me what you're thinking of
Is it not your world of love? Oh

I want to live carefree
Inanimate daydream
Free from persons curse
Won't know what it's worth
Mystery by design the spell I'm under

Spare the rational lament
Left with instinct heaven sent
Sweet indifference day to day
Show me how to live your way

I want to live carefree
Inanimate daydream
Free from persons curse
Won't know what it's worth
Mystery by design the spell I'm under

Holding for the next best
Thing to Vinnie's life from mine
Dream to me from six inches high
Obligated to unwind
Warm and oblivious to time

I want to live carefree
Inanimate daydream
Free from persons curse
Won't know what it's worth
Mystery by design the spell I'm under
Track Name: Suzanne: And I’m starting to move it
Boy I’m starting to move it
Oh I’m starting to move it
Yeah I’m starting to move it

And I’m starting to move it now
Boy, I really need to move it now

I know a boy like Suzie
I know a boy like Suzie
I know a boy like Suzie
Yeah, I know a boy like Suzie

I know a boy who likes Suzanne
Man, I really gotta tell Suzanne
Track Name: Restless and Tired: I can see myself intaking
Borderlining every angle
Taking notes off every ladder
Wondering what makes me like it

But nobody’s talking
But nobody’s talking
But nobody’s talking
But nobody’s talking

Everytime I’d talk to birdie
She would tell me all her problems
Everytime I’d try to solve them
She would tell me “not for longer”

It’s nobody’s laundry
It’s nobody’s laundry
It’s nobody’s laundry
It’s nobody’s laundry

She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
Of you

Caterpillar, touch of iron
Every moment, loss of calcium
Healthy statements just to say it
“Reassure me I ain’t fake it”

But nobody help her
But nobody help her
But nobody help her
But nobody help her

Everytime I’d talk to birdie
She would tell me all her problems
Everytime I’d try to solve them
She would tell me “come back monday”

She’s nobody’s daughter
She’s nobody’s daughter
She’s nobody’s daughter
She’s nobody’s daughter

She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
Of you

Come on now
Bring it home

I can see myself intaking
Borderlining every angle
Taking notes off every ladder
Wondering what makes me like it

But nobody’s talking
But nobody’s talking
But nobody’s talking
But nobody’s talking

Everytime I’d talk to birdie
She would tell me all her problems
Everytime I’d try to solve them
She would tell me “come back monday”

It’s nobody’s laundry
It’s nobody’s laundry
It’s nobody’s laundry
It’s nobody’s laundry

She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
She’s just restless and tired
Of you
Track Name: Clank: Wasting away mid summer rain
Hoping you'll wait for the big day
Oh no!
It's just for show
Feeling since may faced with the gray
Trying to find it out this way
Don't know
Where we could go

Got a feeling it's the season
Tell me what's your better reason now

Notice the change?
It's wintery rain bring the doubts to your windows
Don't know
Where we could go

Warmth of the same take me away
Tell me the same thing a different way
No
Comes to a close

Got a feeling it's the season
Tell me what's your better reason now
Going on just hoping I'm not wrong
But is that wrong?
Track Name: Hips: Saturday night
Feeling alright
The hair on my head
The feeling is right

He comes to me
His hand on his drink
His hand on my hips
He says to me

“Boy i’ve been feeling alright
And you’ve been looking just fine
I think you look like something that I needed
Boy when I look at you
I don’t know what to do with myself
Boy I’ve been feeling just fine
And you’ve been looking alright
I think you look like something that I needed
Hesitate to participate
But I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed
I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed
I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed”

Walking it home
The feeling is gold
Arraining the hold
Steering so bold

Looks at my eye
Looks at my eye
Looks at my eye
He tells me he's right

“Boy i’ve been feeling alright
And you’ve been looking just fine
I think you look like something that I needed
Boy when I look at you
I don’t know what to do with myself
Boy I’ve been feeling just fine
And you’ve been looking alright
I think you look like something that I needed
Hesitate to participate
But I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed
I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed
I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed”

“Boy i’ve been feeling alright
And you’ve been looking just fine
I think you look like something that I needed
Boy when I look at you
I don’t know what to do with myself
Boy I’ve been feeling just fine
And you’ve been looking alright
I think you look like something that I needed
Hesitate to participate
But I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed
I won’t leave this place until I get what I needed
I won’t leave this place until I sell what I needed”
Track Name: Jackson: Pushing down the road to Mississippi
Took a stop in Jackson town
Saw a friend to talk about the times we got the run around

Land of unfamiliar faces
It's a great day for showing all your friends
That you've gone your own way not the pattern of your yesterdays

Feels so out of reach
Conversation in the sheet
Try to find a rhyme
For keeping things in time
Hop aboard your train to nowhere
Just to leave your mind now
Track Name: Diets (I've Decided To Keep On Trying): I’ve decided to keep on trying
Diets

pleasure suck

supported by 11 fans who also own “Blood on the Tracks”

In short, this is hands down one of the best albums ever created. I listened to this baby (especially pleasure suck II) on repeat during my senior year of high school. Each song is so intricate and boldly yet PERFECTLY flows into the next track. Love love love. Would buy 1,000,000 times if I could. Kiana Hugins
