MAKE YOUR MAMA PROUD

1996
This was Fastball's debut C.D. This really didn't feature any singles. It was more of a "punk" c.d than "All the Pain Money can Buy." It features the vocals of both bassist, Tony Scalzo and guitarist, Miles Zuniga to put a kind of a mixed sound. (personal favorites= Are You Ready for the Fallout, Nothing, Eater, Seattle, Telephone Calls.)

SONG LYRICS


HUMAN TORCH
Turned 'round 6 o clock and I'm still sleppin'
I don't have to work on Saturday
But I do anyway
'Round the corner, right on up to the shop
I come creepin', but it don't matter anyway

'Cause I know it's just as well
And even so I feel like hell
You can say that i'ts alright
But I am rapped up tight
And I can see the forest through the trees
I am on my knees
I don't know if I'm supposed to stay or
I'm supposed to leave
It all behind the door
The world outside still spins
Waiting there behind the door
But I won't let it in
Not today
Not tommorow
Not next week

Your just gonna have to pay 5 bucks to see the geek

'Cause I know it's just as well
And even so I feel like hell
You can say that it's alright
But I am rapped up tight
And I can see the forest through the trees
I am on my knees
I don't know if I'm supposed to stay or I'm supposed to leave!

Please draw your attention
Above the center ring!
Up in the rafters!
500 feet above the crowd!
My hair is saokin' keresene
My clothes are wet with gasoline
You only get to see this once
The human torch is going down
Going down...
Going down...
Going down...




SHE COMES ROUND
She, she belongs to me
But she doesn't know it, Oh yeah
She comes walkin' down the street
She don't notice me

And She comes 'round, she knows how
To turn me inside out, inside out and upside down

She's got the bomb.

I'm twisted metal dumb
When I get around you, a mess
I stuter incomplete
I can't keep a beat

She comes 'round, she knows how
To turn me inside out, inside out and upside down

She's got the bomb.

She comes 'round, my guard is down
She gets me everytime
She don't even notice me
When she goes walkin' by

She, she belongs to me
But she doesn't know it, Oh yeah
She comes walkin' down the street
She don't notice me

She comes 'round, She knows how
To turn me inside out, inside out and upside down

She's got the bomb.

She comes 'round, she knows how
To turn me inside out, inside out and upside down

She's got the bomb.

MAKE YOUR MAMA PROUD
I can still recall the time
You were not so far behind
You were only 15 and you still had you some mind
Now your pushin' 31
Duty calls you come and run
When will this be over with? When will you be done?

I'll be your man child to be tough
Once is never quite enough
Give me 20 minutes in between, if you know what I mean
You gotta give if you want to get
Never let 'em see you sweat
You may cry and you may bleed
But only if the punch is from me

Why do you back down
In the face of a fist fight
I kick myself for caring about you
You may wander go in this it's for him I come around
You can kill yourself or you can make your mama proud

When you get the energy
You can place a call to me
My numbers in the phone book and I'm not too hard to find
I still live at the same old place
I still got that same old face
I can't give you more than 20 minutes of my time

I'll be your man child to be tough
Once is never quite enough
Give me 20 minutes in between

Why do you back down
In the face of a fist fight
I kick myself for caring about you
You may wander go in this it's for him I come around
You can kill yourself or you can make your mama proud
You can kill yourself or you can make your mama proud
You can kill yourself or you can make your mama proud!!




BACK DOOR
Brown skin in the kitchen shouting "Why!"
While draggin the dollars on the table
Keep it quiet, Quiet!

They come and go through the back door
Who's keeping score
Who's keeping

Itchin' with no mention, medicate
Sorry, an achievment, got the word in
Getting "Why!" Goodnight!

They come and go through the back door
Who's keeping score
Who's kepping score

Pistol blew the whistle on the plan
Mexican and the rebel, they have dollars,
Thay have sand, Yeah! Yeah!

They come and go through the back door
Who's kepping score
Who's kepping score

Who's kepping score

Ohhhh! Ohhhh!




ARE YOU READY FOR THE FALLOUT?
I was wondreing how your feeling
I thought I saw you kneeling
And holding your gut in tight
It looked like you were praying
But I heard someone saying
You had been in an awful fight

You get the worst of it every time
Lahing out with no reason or rhyme
To lose all this way
Yet so tender at age
Little baby growing up in a rat cage

Are you ready for the falolout
Who you going to call out
When does it finnaly come to blows
I think that your forgetting
The blood that you'll be letting
Has a price on it no one knows
You may be suffering in your sleep
May be getting in way too deep
And you may not care
For if I said I'd share
You want it and have the other

Soon you will learn how to swallow a tear
So when you are old you can cry in your beer
And you spit at the face staring back at the mirror till you have a little self respect

Soon you will learn how to swallow a tear
So when you are old you can cry in your beer
And you spit at the face staring back at the mirror till you have a little self respect
What the hell did you expect

Are you ready for the fallout
Who you going to call out
When does it finnaly come to blows
I think that your forgetting
The blood that you'll be letting
Has a price on it no one knows
You may be suffering in your sleep
May be getting in way too deep
And you may not care
For if I said I'd share
You want it and have the other

Are you ready for the fallout
Who you going to call out

Are you ready for the fallout
Who you going to callout

Are you ready for the fallout
Who you going to call out

Are you ready for the fallout
Who you going to call out

(fade)




NOTHING
Well, they'll be writing your name on the bathroom wall
But it don't mean nothing, it don't mean nothing
They wanna ruin your life, wanna see you take a fall
But it don't mean nothing, it don't mean nothing at all

Stupid people say stupid things and it will drive you right up the wall
Sometimes I feel the same way too
But it don't mean nothing at all

Your mom and dad don't care about the way you fell and you just can't take it, you just can't take it
You got the short end of a sheddy teal, just can't take, you just can't take it no more

Stupid people say stupid things and it will drive you right up the wall
Sometimes I feel the same way too
But it don't mean nothing at all

They put alot of effort into making you feel like a clown
You give it your best shot and they shot you down

Stupid people say stupid things and it will drive you right up the F*CKING wall
Sometimes I feel the same way too
But it don't mean nothing at all

Well, it don't mean nothing at all
I just don't mean nothing at all
Well, it don't mean nothing at all




BOOMERANG
Amy's going out with John
Now she's dating Paul
Paul is dating Kelsea
And Kelsea used to go out with me
After I broke up with Amy

Everybody's had
Everybody's had everybody
Everybody's had
Everybody's had everybody

Once or twice

Hey, you better watch what you say
People love to talk
People love to gossip
Everybody's going around
Well, it's a hungry town
It's a leaky fossit

Everybody knows
Everybody heard what you said
Everybody knows
Everybody heard what you said

It's a boomerang

EATER
Watch me make you
Let me take you

Further down
I will penetrate you baby
Run you into the ground
I will make you hate you baby

I'm an eater
I'm an eater
I'm an eater

Your cheeks are red and rosy, I'll keep you safe and sound
I'll keep you warm and cozy, fatten you up to wolf you down
Your cheeks are red and rosy, I'll keep you safe and sound
(Watch me make you)
I'll keep you warm and cozy, fatten you up to wolf you down
(Let me take you)

I'm an eater
I'm an eater
I'm an eater

And there's one thing that I know is true
I'll just make a meal of you
I'll leave the bones and hair to rot
I don't really care alot

Further down
(Watch Me)
I will penetrate you baby
(Make you)
Run you into the ground
(Let me)
I will make you hate you baby

I'm an eater
I'm an eater
I'm an eater
I'm an eater
I'm an eater
I'm an eater
I'm an eater
