Here are the lyrics to the accoustic version of slogans (although I refer to it as track 19). I think the newer/punkier version has slightly different lyrics.
I remember the violent park
All the trash tried to leave a mark
All the ciggarette butts fought the needles
And the Stones fought the Beatles
I remember the first time I turned twelve
The subway door said close yourself
Now it's the seventeenth time I've turned twelve
I know I gotta rely on myself
And I'll keep repeating it to myself
'Til I convince myself it's true
Everyone you meet is not better than you
And I swore I'd say goodbye
To the new lower east side
But if I never do than nevermind
I won't leave the past behind
American anyman
I remember when
I gave advice to them
I'm always nice to them
And I'll keep repeating it to myself
'Til I convince myself it's true
Everyone you meet is not better than you
And I called you from the road
It made my spirit implode
I stumbled back shaken with loss
He said stop calling Santa Claus
But my heart's not the kind you break
It's just certain things are hard to take
But now that I've got it all on tape
I can really figure out it's shape
And I'll keep repeating it to myself
'Til I convince myself it's true
Everyone you meet is not better than you
And some say take it day by day
And that appeals to me
I mean what choice do I have
It comes that way

This is a warning.

I kept getting one line wrong. I've changed it twice now.
