Lyrics

Jojo left Wisconsin
With his suitcase and his name
Went off to the big city
His heart set on fame

He had exciting discourse
With a disgruntled cactus by the Arizona plains
And decided it was time to drag his carcass across the desert
Despite all his aches and pain

Lies, lies, they?re all bloody lies
Everything about a person?s written in their eyes
You may speak to me and not believe
That I can see what?s written there
Beneath all the deceit

Summer is red, it?s fiery heat glows
The passion ignites my mind
It?s the final hour, the witching power
Dare to travel to new heights, dare to brave the winds, dare not to
Diatribes and endless meaningless words
Repeat them over and over in case you miss a beat
Ooh the politicians always lie, the promises they never try to keep, Oh oh
