Bone By Bone
03:37
|
|||
We built this bridge baby bone by bone
Spirits in a cradle like a catacomb
You can’t come runnin’ back
You can’t undig the hole
Ah oooo
Ah oooo
My father built a home in the eye of the storm
His daddy spilled blood in the Battle of the Marne
Better batten down your heart
Batten down your soul
Rise to the heavens
Circle with the crows
Sink sink sink to the bottom like a bag of stones
Everybody rattle
Everybody roll right roll
Gotta give yourself up to the shudder of it all
Now I’m countin’ money off cashin’ steel
Turning bodies into rods, grindin’ bones to meal
Taking any everything that passes under me
I am the lock I am the key I am the bay I am the sea I am the heat I am the street I am the beat I can’t be beat I am fleet I am no flea I am the seed no amnesty
Walkin’ the block popping the glock
Watching the clock chopping the flock
Stocking the rocks mocking the cops
Blocking the cock stacking the stocks
Copping the locks chalking the walks
Running the docks the capitol box
Racking the racks waxing the tracks
Taxing the lacks Cash in the Black
Packing the mack flashing the plaques
Head of the pack slashing the hacks
Back in the traps money on max
Staking the stacks Lumberjack’s back
ah oooo
ah oooo
ah oooo
Rise to the heavens
Circle with the crows
Sink sink sink to the bottom like a bag of stones
Everybody rattle
Everybody roll right roll
Gotta give yourself up to the shudder of it all
Rise to the heavens
Circle with the crows
Sink sink sink to the bottom like a bag of stones
Everybody rattle
Everybody roll right roll
Gotta give yourself up to the shudder of it all
Skeleton steel and the skin gone cold
We built this bridge baby bone by bone

On Our Own
02:51
|
|||
You could hear ‘em singing
You had to paint by numbers
That’s how ya remember your Saturdays
A sundown premonition
A distant television
You might have learned it somewhere
But you still can’t count the days
On our own
Thunder at our heels
On our own
Turning weakness into steel
They can show ya how to listen,
But they can’t teach ya how to feel
On our own
Turning weakness into steel
Ya don’t remember leaving
Just remember being.
The details stand to reason
There’s a million ways to rhyme
We didn’t get the mansion
But maybe no one’s asking
When you rely on luck
It gets ya every time
On our own
Thunder at our heels
On our own
Turning weakness into steel
They can show ya how to listen,
But they can’t teach ya how to feel
On our own
Turning weakness into steel
On our own
Turning weakness into steel

How Could I Go
04:20
|
|||
As the sun came past the glass
And covered his skin in the colors of the curtain
I was certain this moment was here
To stay
She sat on my bed with her hair hanging back
As she wore that cigarette between her teeth
I thought I could see
She’s the one for me
How could I go
Over that bridge
Beginnings begin
But then came to an end
Once we were in a car
She told me to stop at the top of that bridge
And said when we were kids
She stared at me more than the boys starin’ at her
That’s when I told her
My love, to this girl
How could I go
Over that bridge
Beginnings begin
But then came to an end
Two years later
In the same spot
She told me the last time to stop
At the top of that bridge
She said she just wasn’t enough
How could I go
Over that bridge
Beginnings begin
But then came to an end
How could I go
Beginnings begin
But then came to an end
But then came to an end

HoliDazed
05:07
|

Woke up in a holidaze
Stroke of genius touched my brain
Did evoke a lucid phrase
Saw the music in my mind
Psychedelic lullaby
As sleep was falling from my eyes
I never ever wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m home
I never ever wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m home
Bridge the lapse in time and space
No future, past; we’re holidazed
Open doors and sounds to taste
Connecting the collective ohm
Free to feel and safe to roam
Waiting for the welcome home
I never ever wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m home
I never ever wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m never gonna wanna leave
I’m home

Hey, boy, what do you say
Sun’s goin’ down over Sturgeon Bay
You and me, young and free
Doin’ what comes so naturally
Take my hand, hit the floor
King and Queen of the County Door
I will be your holiday tonight
(Can I get your name?)
Shake it like you’re stoopin’ (one fist!)
Everybody’s groovin’ (two fists!)
Come to dance, take a chance (now swish!)
Gonna do it right (hips!)
Ride the road together (and dip!)
Cruisin’ to forever (bridge!)
Lose your mind, now’s the time (and ship!)
Commandeer the night (now clap! …… stop!)
Hey, now, what’s goin’ down
Everybody’s doin’ the Cherry Bounce (the Cherry Bounce!)
It’s the latest craze
Takin’ it back to the good old days
Listen up to the song
Don’t take much to dance along
I just wanna bounce with you tonight
(‘Til the mornin’ light)
Shake it like you’re stoopin’ (one fist!)
Everybody’s groovin’ (two fists!)
Come to dance, take a chance (now swish!)
Gonna do it right (hips!)
Ride the road together (and dip!)
Cruisin’ to forever (bridge!)
Lose your mind, now’s the time (and ship!)
Commandeer the night (now clap! …… stop!)
Shake it like you’re stoopin’ (one fist!)

Agatha you send me
Agatha you send me
Oh, Agatha you send me
To a New World every day
No bridge to get across the sea
So a ship it had to be, oh yeah
Agatha, let’s put the anchor down
When we get to Provincetown, oh yeah
In the New World you don’t have a job
You eat corn on the cob, uh huh
Did you say you had a baby on the way
Oceanus is his name, uh huh
Agatha you send me
Agatha you send me
Oh, Agatha you send me
To a New World every day
I can see by the buckle on your hat
While you’re churnin’ butterfat, oh yeah
And I know that it doesn’t take a lot
To shoot a musket shot, oh yeah
Oh, Agatha you send me
Oh, Agatha you send me
Oh, Agatha you send me
To a New World every day
To a New World every day

I’m a weary pilgrim on a lonely road
Got a destination and a heavy load
Darkness fallin’ still miles to go
And my only friend is the radio
Tryin’ to count the miles but I’m countin’ sheep
This body’s achin’ and I’d kill for sleep
I wanna keep goin’ but I can barely see
There’s a long dark bridge in front of me
Where do you go when you wanna get home,
When that clear blue sky turns stormy?
Do you drive on strong like nothin’s wrong
Or do you take it as a warnin’?
I think I’ll cross that bridge in the mornin’
It’s a tough call to make when you wanna roll
A blurry vision and a thinnin’ soul
If you decide to take the chance to go
You might slide off the bridge and into the water below
Where do you go when you wanna get home,
When that clear blue sky turns stormy?
Do you drive on strong like nothin’s wrong
Or do you take it as a warnin’?
I think I’ll cross that bridge in the morning
I won’t get far in my getaway car
And sleep is gunnin’ for me
The radio’s on and they’re playin’ my song called
Cross that bridge in the mornin’
Cross that bridge in the mornin’
Cross that bridge in the mornin’
Cross that bridge in the mornin’
Cross that bridge in the mornin’

Bridge To Nowhere
03:15
|
|||
5am throwin’ another one out on the road to burn
Time under my wheels, escapin’ lessons I never learned
How many miles to go
10 in the tank, it’s gotta hold me through
I’ve got nowhere to be, nothin’ to do
Just runnin’, runnin’, runnin’ from you
On this bridge to nowhere
The one place in my mind
There’s peace in not knowin’
What I left behind
Drivin’ down this bridge to nowhere
Nowhere fast and I’m takin’ my time
Your porch light’s on as if everything is fine
Is it fine?
Goodbye, goodbye, good luck down the road
Maybe someday you’ll find yourself a home
You’ll find, find yourself a home
On this bridge to nowhere
The one place in my mind
There’s peace in not knowin’
What I left behind
Drivin’ down this bridge to nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Life’s little lessons that don’t mean much to me
I’ve seen enough to know by now, that eventually
They’ll catch me, catch me, before I get too deep
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere

Long Way Gone
04:19

How high, how high is the moon
In the sky, mama?
Tell me, how high is the moon?
Someday we’ll fly just as high
Oh my little one
Someday we’ll fly just as high
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
And be a long way gone
When will I find my true love
My true love, mama?
When will I find my true love?
You’ll know true love when it’s right
Oh my little one
Until that time, take your time
It’s alright
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
And we’re a long way gone
Where do we go when we die
When we die, mama?
Where do we go when we die?
Where do we go? I don’t know
Oh my little one
Where do we go? I don’t know
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
And we’re a long way gone
Why are those tears in your eyes
In your eyes, mama?
Why are those tears in your eyes?
These tears I cry, they’re just love
Oh my little one
Someday you’ll know tears of love
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it
And we’re a long way gone
We’re a long way gone
We’re a long way gone

Delusions
03:52
|
|||
At the local Holiday
Breaking in the sheets
Just opening my ears
To the people rooming next to me
I’m seventy percent sure
The people next to me ain’t dead
But that’s not much fun to think about
While lying in this bed
Did the break in the whispers
Mean something much more
Than stopping of the talking
Or are the people dead next door
Creating black delusions
Keeps me intrigued
I’m pacing on the bridge
Between reality and fantasy
Oh, and it’s hard to
But don’t pretend you don’t want it
Yeah
As daylight comes creeping in
My thoughts evade the sun
I’m focused on the crime here
That wasn’t really done
Creating black delusions
Keeps me intrigued
I’m pacing on the bridge
Between reality and fantasy
Creating black delusions
Keeps me intrigued
I’m pacing on the bridge
Between reality and fantasy
I’m pacing on this bridge
Between reality and fantasy

Watchu Heard
03:06
|

Have you ever thought about the man in the tower
Who opens that bridge every half an hour on the hour
All that time locked in that box
With just the tickin’ and the tockin’ of the clock
What you think he do all day
I heard that that dude’s real strange
Jamey said he’s a robot
Uh no but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen him sneeze
Well if he ain’t a robot he’s sweatin’ his ass off
It must be 200 degrees
Now what you heard
What you heard
My mother said since she was a kid
He’s never left his post
Never seen him eat, never seen him on the street
Yeah, she swears that he is a ghost
But Suzy B’s cousin says he eats a dozen Door County cherry pies
Every day with his lunch now he weighs too much
And he’s stuck inside
Well Officer Chad that’s Tad’s dad says that down at the station
The story goes he actually chose this as his incarceration
Cuz once upon a time he lost his mind
When he caught another man with his wife
Could’ve handled it better and now he’ll forever
Be up there the rest of his life
Now what you heard
What you heard
My brother Larry heard from Sherry he chopped up that guy with an axe
When they chained him to the desk his only request
Was don’t take my alto sax
Now what you heard
What you heard
That can’t be true
Uh, uh

Hand In Hand

Stand with me a little while longer
Stand with me a little while longer
Stand with me hand in hand across the bay
Stand with me hand in hand across the bay
I don’t know if I
Tell you just how much I
Need you to stay alive
Not just for me but for
Our family you know
You’re the North Star in our sky
Stand with me a little while longer
Stand with me a little while longer
Stand with me hand in hand across the bay
Stand with me hand in hand across the bay
Can you hear the songs brewin’
Capturing the feelings
Writing down what’s inside
Are you listening to
What I’m saying to you
You’re the Catcher in the Rye
Stand with me a little while longer
Stand with me a little while longer
Stand with me hand in hand across the bay
Stand with me hand in hand across the bay
Hand in hand across the bay
Hand in hand across the bay
Hand in hand across the bay

Hearts Are The Same
02:50
|
|||
If I build a bridge to your shore will you quiet your waters?
If I lay the foundation I promise you will stand strong
When I walk across to your side will you be there to greet me?
If I come in good faith will you lower your arrows?
I can’t say for certain this river will soften its currents
And I’ll open my arms, but I can’t say that I’m unafraid
All I can tell you is baby our hearts are the same
I’ve stumbled down mountains and crawled out of valleys I’m broken
There’s a storm in my soul and it comes and it goes without warning
When you finally see who I am will you still recognize me?
You don’t have to answer, I’m waiting for you when you’re ready
I can’t say for certain this river will soften its currents
And I’ll open my arms, but I can’t say that I’m unafraid
All I can tell you is baby our hearts are the same
All I can tell you is baby our hearts are the same
All I can tell you is baby our hearts are the same

Forget To Tell You
03:06
|

See the water blue and wide
See the fishes jumpin’
See you drift into the night
Forgot to tell you somethin’
Forgot to tell you
See my lover in the mist
Will you give me one more kiss
Were those lies on your sweet lips
Forgot to tell you somethin’
Forgot to tell you
You’re too far, and it’s so clear
The water is dark and you’re not here
And you’re not here
I release you to the tide
To the water blue and wide
To the one I do admire
I forgot to tell you somethin’
Forgot to tell you
Forgot to tell you
You’re too far, and it’s so clear
The water is dark and you’re not here
And you’re not here
I release you to the tide
I release you to the tide
I release you to the tide
I release you

She touches me with her shadow
At the break of dawn from across the bay
Waves roll by, they shimmer
And I feel fine
A mesmerizing beauty
A constant charm and a will so strong
I raise my arms and imagine
She is mine
I wish, I wish you wouldn’t
Go away
I need a little more time
Be cuz I wasn’t brave enough to say
You were the sun in my sky
I woulda, coulda, didn’t
Tell you babe
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
How I miss her on the horizon
So alone at the end of the day
Stars fade in and they glimmer
She’s on my mind
Somewhere under the moonlight
Is she a memory or a distant dream?
She’s the everything I have lost
And cannot find
I wish, I wish you wouldn’t
Go away
I need a little more time
Be cuz I wasn’t brave enough to say
You were the sun in my sky
I woulda, coulda, didn’t
Tell you babe
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I wish, I wish you wouldn’t
Go away
I need a little more time
Be cuz I wasn’t brave enough to say
You were the sun in my sky
I woulda, coulda, didn’t
Tell you babe
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line
I shoulda laid it on the line

Every thirty seconds it’s your birthday
Every thirty seconds it’s your birthday
How long has it been, it’s your birthday again
Every thirty seconds it’s your birthday

How long has it been, it’s your birthday again
Every thirty seconds it’s your birthday (hey!)
Every thirty seconds it’s your birthday
Every thirty seconds it’s your birthday
How long has it been, it’s your birthday again
Every thirty seconds it’s your birthday (you’re dead!)

This Is Not The End
02:42
|

I was standing on a bridge
Was ready at the edge to jump and turn the water red
I remembered what you said:
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
I was trapped inside my head
Was balanced on a razor’s edge on my meds in my bed
But I remembered what you said:
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
I, I was filled with dread
And with the bled I almost shed, almost dead, but instead
I remembered what you said:
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end
This is not the end

Hold the line
Heed the sign
Don’t look back, it’s coming down again
Bascules move to guide you in
Silver sturgeon steady through the aisles
River current carries you for miles
Gates of steel
Will reveal
Water shining like a tide of chrome
Bascules move to guide you home
Ships will sail to guide you through the straits
Gentle lakes and harbor havens wait

Bridge Of Love

When the bridge goes up, that’s when I go down
And you know what I mean, when I say I’m ready now
Those beams of steel, oh, they look so strong
Now you shine and you gleam, ooo you really turn me on
I hear you moanin’ under my wheels
I know you love the way it feels
Gonna get it up
For the bridge of love
Can’t get enough
Of the bridge of love
Alright!
Now the sun shines down, gets you so hot
And now you’re burning, ooo I said I like it a lot
You don’t open up for just anyone
It’s all wet down there, it’s time to have some fun
I hear you moanin’ under my wheels
I know you love the way it feels
I’m gonna get it up
For the bridge of love
Can’t get enough
Of the bridge of love (alright, alright)
The bridge goes up
I go down
The bridge goes up
I go down
Get it up
For the bridge of love
Can’t get enough
Of the bridge of love
Bridge of love
Oh the bridge of love
Bridge of love
Bridge of love

The 27 Club
03:04
|

She’s elusive
Hidden in plain sight
We’re a nuisance
Off our faces, just a pastime
She wants to be in the 27 Club (27 Club)
She’s on her way, on her way up
Your tactics wore off with each passing day
Suffer the losses and I’m here to say
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime
Winter came and left
A pain in my chest
Since October froze
The dog on the road
April showers washed away
The gunpowder
And the salt from the bridge
Into the lake it now flows
She wants to be in the 27 Club (27 Club)
Her fake ID says she’s close enough
She wants to be in the 27 Club
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime
That was not your plan for a minute or a night or a weekend or a lifetime

Spotlight

I never asked to be your golden child
It’s magnetic
Not poetic
Just do my thing and kids go running wild
A newer model
Y’all in the bottle
Friends want favors
Harrassin’ the neighbors
Just to take a closer look
To assess the damage
That I tried to manage
But I wouldn’t fix it if I could
Spotlight
Don’t shine
On the weak
And fragile mind
Spotlight’s
All mine
I can’t outrun it
I’m going blind
Spotlight
Don’t shine
On the weak
And fragile mind
Spotlight’s
All mine
I can’t outrun it
I’m going blind
Pack my bags
But I ain’t leavin’
Got contraband
Yo call policeman
Don’t need to swim
I touch the bottom
Tell her and him
They know I got ‘em
Birdie says you got my name on file
Y’all want credit
Just forget it
When I go, I’m goin’ out of style
Like a midnight bandit
Just up and vanish
Y’all gon’ need a
Spotlight
Don’t shine
On the weak
And fragile mind
The spotlight’s
All mine
I can’t outrun it, no
I’m goin’ blind
Spotlight
Don’t shine
On the weak
And fragile mind
Spotlight’s
All mine
I can’t outrun it
I’m going blind
Spotlight
Don’t shine
On the weak
And fragile mind
Spotlight’s
All mine
I can’t outrun it
I’m going blind
I never asked to be your golden child
It’s magnetic

Just do my thing and kids go runnin’ wild
A newer model

She's So Extra Extra
03:23
|
|||
I got a girl, her name is Erica
She said she coming to America
Got her a ticket, passport, and visa
And a blessing from her ma Teresa
She wore white lace
I dressed in leather
Dreaming of our life together
She said, “I love you
And that’s forever
But I think I like your money better”
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, I gave it in the name of love
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, never seemed to be enough
Sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la, hey!
Sha la la la la la la la la la la
First came the lovin’, and then the trouble
At check-out time the bill, it double
The cops were called to the casino
They kicked us out our room in Reno
First the flash, and then the fury
Then the trial, judge, and jury
Nolo contendere
I’m a fuckup
So I’m filing for d’vorce in lockup
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, I gave it in the name of love
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, never seemed to be enough
Sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la, hey!
Sha la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la, hey!
Sha la la la la la la la la la la
I drove out to that bridge
To end this life of sin
Took my wedding ring off and I threw it in
If you want to know
How the story ends
You’ll have to ask the fishes in Lake Michigan
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, I gave it in the name of love
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, never seemed to be enough
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, I gave it in the name of love
She’s so extra, extra
Everything she wanted, never seemed to be enough
Sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la, hey!
Sha la la la la la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la, hey!

Come on down to the cabin, baby
Don’t be afraid, you can trust me
You got a secret sittin’ on your chest
Don’t look so scared, just come and confess
The plastic in the backseat
Is not what it seems
The knife in my pocket
Is just make believe
Honey, sugar, darlin’
There’s no need to run
I haven’t even spoke yet
Don’t you dare jump the gun
Played a good game, really put up a fight
But in my field there’s nowhere to hide
I’ve never seen you shed a single tear
But tonight’s the night that changes, my dear
Go ahead and claim
You don’t know her name
Would you sit still
You’re fuckin’ up my aim
Oh, oh, oh, you should’ve thought twice
1, 2, 3, you’re out of strikes
Was lookin’ down at the water one night
Standin’ on the bridge cast you in a new light
All the red flags became so clear
That’s when we knew that you must disappear
Go ahead and claim
You don’t know her name
Would you sit still
You’re fuckin’ up my aim
Oh, oh, oh, you should’ve thought twice
1, 2, 3, you’re out of strikes
Come on down to the cabin, baby
Don’t be afraid, you can trust me

Peanut Butter Jelly Jam
02:09
|

This is the peanut butter jelly jam
And this is how it goes
We got to get out the sauces
And spread them on the loaf
When two tasty tastes combine
Baby, it’ll blow my mind
Peanut butter jelly jam
It’s crunchy, creamy,
Oily, no stir,
If it’s not organic, I don’t want it none, no sir
Cherry, blackberry,
Apple freezerve,
I put it in my mouth, I get what I deserve
When two tasty tastes combine
Baby, it’ll blow my mind
Peanut butter jelly jam
A bridge is a lot like a sandwich, see
Ya got two sides and philosophy
If ya got one side you only got half
Gotta bring two together, duh, do the math
A sandwich is a bit like a bridge to me
A little bit of sweet and some savory
PB&J can stand by themselves
But when they are together
It’s something else
When two tasty tastes combine
Baby, it’ll blow my mind
Peanut butter jelly jam
Peanut butter jelly jam
Peanut butter jelly jam
Peanut butter jelly jam

Disco Ball
03:11
|

I see you over there, tryin’ not to stare
I promise I don’t bite hard
Flashin’ neon lights make me feel alive
Would you like to share the beat tonight
Oohoo, tell me that you want me
Oohoo, more than with your eyes
Oohoo, tonight could be so crazy
You and me, we could be all we fantasize
Baby, I’m buildin’ a bridge under the disco ball
All you gotta do is trust that I won’t let you fall
Baby, I’m buildin’ a bridge under the disco ball, ohh
All you gotta do is trust that I won’t let you fall
My hands start to sweat, the butterflies won’t rest
Gotta make this torment last
Gonna make you mine, just paint me a sign
We can’t dance this life away
Oohoo, tell me that you want me
Oohoo, more than with your eyes
Oohoo, tonight could be so crazy
You and me, we could be all we fantasize
Baby, I’m buildin’ a bridge under the disco ball
All you gotta do is trust that I won’t let you fall
Baby, I’m buildin’ a bridge under the disco ball, ooohh
All you gotta do is trust that I won’t let you fall
Baby, I’m buildin’ a bridge under the disco ball, ohh
All you gotta do is trust that I won’t let you fall, oooh
Baby, I’m buildin’ a bridge under the disco ball, yeah, yeah
All you gotta do is trust that I won’t let you fall

Oh My Stranger
03:12
|

Oh my stranger
Oh what a night
Do you think that I will see you again?
I walk alone
But there’s no shame
It’s a pity I didn’t even get your name
On the bridge I wonder if you care
I’ll call you if I find my phone somewhere
I think I remember the fun night that we shared
So call me if you find my underwear
First time I saw you it was at Poh’s
Or was it Butch’s, god only knows
Stopped counting cocktails at 109
You grabbed my hand at closing time
Of all the times that I cannot remember
This one really sticks out in my mind
What are you, a mystery or a lover
Or a creep that I happened to find
On the bridge I wonder if you care
I’ll call you if I find my phone somewhere
I think I remember the fun night that we shared
So call me if you find my underwear
On the bridge I wonder if you care
So call me if you find my kid somewhere

Objects In Mirror
03:43
|
|||
I see the smile lines setting in
I feel the high times are getting thin
Can I just be twenty-six again?
I’m kinda feelin’ like I’m caving in
I think I’m drowning
In lines unwritten, in paths not taken
I sense it breaking
The years forsaken, the time I’m wasting
It’s everything we’re taught without a doubt to fear
Objects in mirror are closer than they appear
It’s everything we’re taught without a doubt to fear
Objects in mirror are closer than they appear
Handful of Tylenol to greet the day
Good habits getting in the way
I care more about these recent greys
Than a fresh new way to misbehave
Sick of the beach, man, I think I’m done
Protect my skin against the harsh sun
When did drinking stop being fun?
I fought the morning, and the morning won
I think I’m drowning
In lines unwritten, in paths not taken
I sense it breaking
The years forsaken, the time I’m wasting
It’s everything we’re taught without a doubt to fear
Objects in mirror are closer than they appear
They said I’d cross that bridge when I came to it
Well, I came to it, oh
And my reflection’s staring back at me
I don’t want to see, oh no
It’s everything we’re taught without a doubt to fear
Objects in mirror are closer than they appear
It’s everything we’re taught without a doubt to fear
Objects in mirror are closer than they appear
They said I’d cross that bridge when I came to it
Well, I came to it, oh
Objects in mirror are closer than they appear
They said I’d cross that bridge when I came to it
Well, I came to it, oh
Objects in mirror are closer than they appear

My Love Won't Save You
04:12
|
|||
Dreams rush through your open door
A house upon the northern shore
Can you see it?
Days blow by like cigarettes
Vapors making minarets
Can you feel it…?
Life is drifting with the tide
Every wave a downward slide
Will you notice?
Late for work
Your boss is nuts
You’re dying from a thousand cuts
You can’t feel
Your children will not meet your eyes
Off to school with alibis
They can’t deal
You climb back on that carnie ride
The slow and gentle suicide
You should know this
Sha la la la la la la
My love won’t save you
No matter what you hear me say
There’s nothing to do
Oh, but there’s your love
Yes, there’s your love
The nest is filled with broken eggs
You’ll never see things whole again
Can’t mend it
You’re dreamin’ of a prison cell
And hopin’ for a shotgun shell
To end it
You’re waking up an hour late
While waters rise and angels wait
Can you stand it?
Sha la la la la la la
My love won’t save you
No matter what you hear me say
There’s nothing to do
Oh, but there’s your love
Yes, there’s your love
This is your love

Some Some Summertime
03:53

Some some summertime
Is where my dreams all lie
And it feels so fuckin’ pretty
It makes me wanna die
Oh, kiss it while it sees you
Let your arms turn into grass
Take me to the drive-in
With your foot upon the gas
Some some summertime waiting for you
I been in my bed and I been so blue
But you got me hopin’, you got me dreaming again
I get to thinking things that I’m scared to tell
I wonder if there’s a redemption or hell but
You make it pretty you make it simple again, again, oh
When I call your name, can you hear me
Window pane – summer rain
Never felt so free. it’s the youth inside of me
They say it’s long gone but it’s living in a song
Oh I know you
You’ve been away for too long
And you hide yourself
‘Til the winter is gone
So let’s welcome the sun
All my friends, everyone
We are one
We are one
We are one
Some some summertime waiting for you
I been in my bed and I been so blue
But you got me hopin’, you got me dreaming again
I get to thinking things that I’m scared to tell
I wonder if there’s a redemption or hell but
You make it pretty you make it simple again, again, oh

Keep It On
03:56
|
|||
I keep takin’ you back
Don’t know why
When you do this to me every time
Got nothing to say
So I wait
I’m not the one who’s always running away
You keep takin’ your time
Ooh wee ooh
It keeps me waiting up at night
There’s a light on my door
You’re unsure
But I keep you coming back for more
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Ooh
Everything in this town
Goes around
But I don’t care what people have to say
I’m at your beck and call
Through it all
I wouldn’t have it any other way
So I keep takin’ you back
Ooh wee ooh
Even if I have to wait my turn
I’m just a light on your shore
Nothing more
Baby, I was made to burn
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Ooh
Here I am, again, I’m stuck
The bridge is up
Your light shines out
Across the sky
Catchin’ my eye
After the dusk
The minutes go by
I just want to drive
All the time through this fog
You’re always on my mind
Driftin’ off towards the shoreline
You seem to be callin’ out to me
Can’t ignore it anymore
I’ve got to get closer
The night comes to a closure
I keep takin’ you back
Ooh wee ooh
Even if I have to wait my turn
I’m just a light on your shore
Nothing more
Baby, I was meant to burn
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Keep it all night long, keepin’ it on
Ooh ooh ooh

Super Song-O-Matic
03:58
|
|||
We come here every year
With our mission clear
We set our sights upon the song
Move the forms around
Until we nail it down
We don’t quit until it’s done
We’re an autocratic
Super song-o-matic
And we got rhymes that rhyme in time for days
We’re a jewel collective
With our own directive
Won’t let any good riff get away
When we started out
We would flail about
Couldn’t get the feel to come out right
We kept pushin’ on
With our will so strong
Now we got the grooves to last all night
We’re an autocratic
Super song-o-matic
We got rhymes that rhyme in time for days
We’re a jewel collective
With our own perspective
Won’t let any good bridge get away
And here it comes
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ahhh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ahhh
‘Cause we’re an autocratic
Super song-o-matic
We got rhymes that rhyme in time for days
We’re a jewel collective
With our own directive
Won’t let any good riff get away
We’re an autocratic
Super song-o-matic
We got rhymes that rhyme in time for days
We’re a jewel collective
With our own perspective
Won’t let any good bridge get away

Dear John
02:31
|
|||
We crossed paths
We had our past in tow
We weren’t stung
By the lover’s bow
Tell the truth
Are you breakin’ glass
Behind my back?
Behind my back?
See your cheeks
Are cherry red
Bit the seed
Betrayed me again
You thought magic
Would keep you safe
But we got none of that babe
We got none of that babe
Ran a radio
On the Bering Sea
Called your name
Didn’t hear you answer me
Fit for enemies
And World War II
I hope she can handle you
I hope she can handle you
You thought magic
Would keep you safe
We got none of that
Babe

Where I Am
03:26
|

Where I am, you will one day be
Of all the criminals who wait in cages
Planning with precision perfect crimes
You may become folk heroes for the ages
You can rob the riches, but you’ll never steal back time
Where you are, I have been
Where I am, you will one day be
Where you are, I have been
Where I am, you will one day be
With all the things that you can buy with money
You can never touch the greatest wealth
And while outside these walls it’s warm and sunny
I’ll walk within the freedoms of my cell
Where you are, I have been
Where I am, you will one day be
Where you are, I have been
Where I am, you will one day be
The people isolated in their suffering
Trapped within the scripts of all their shame
The cultures and the colors all look different
Until they see our suff’ring as the same
Where you are, I have been
Where I am, you will one day be
Where you are, I have been
Where I am, you will one day be
When you are, where I am
Take my hand, we can all walk free
Where you are, I have been
Where I am, you will one day be
