I don’t wanna go, anywhere alone
I don’t wanna fight, anyone tonight
With you, for you, it’s two (x2)
Getting off the track, try to get it back
Did it ring a bell, one sure way to tell
With you, for you, it’s two (x2)
(Chorus)
She makes it oh so good
She makes it oh so fine
She makes it oh so mean
She’s a heartbreak love machine (x3)
I don’t wanna go, anywhere alone
I don’t wanna fight, anyone tonight
With you, for you, it’s two (x2)
Say that it’s ok, try it anyway
Mighta been the best, woulda
never guessed
With you, for you, it’s two (x2)
(Chorus)
Wooooo
(Chorus)
Hey

Rock Bottom

1-2-3
I can say I did it my way
Wouldn’t wish it on anyone
I’ve been diggin’ a ditch
They say that life is a bitch
It was over ‘fore it ever begun
Punchin’ holes in drywall
I can always find a stud
A better man
would know the lay of the land but
As usual I’m stuck in the mud (x2)
(Chorus)
Brace for impact, steady your nerves,
I’m about to hit rock bottom (x2)
Misplaced cars and blackouts
How’d I ever wind up here
Morning confusion
and I’ve got no conclusion
Did I piss or did I spill my beer (x2)
(Chorus)
Rock [rock rock rock rock bottom] (x3)
(Chorus)

Ahhh Hey!

Hey, why don't we have some fun today
I can’t wait ‘til tomorrow
Milverine, a bronze Fonze
The orange thing at the lakefront
Hooo hey
Hooo-ooo-ooo (x3)
Hey, let's go to the beach today
I can’t wait ‘til tomorrow
Hooo hey
Well-tanned Dick Bacon
Bradford Beach blanket bingo
Hooo hey
Hooo-ooo-ooo (x3)
Ahhh hey
Hooo-ooo-ooo (x2)
Hey

Creepin’ Soul
02:43
|
|||
She works the floor from front to back
Moves like a vintage Cadillac
Oblivious to stares she swings alone,
she swings alone
I thought that I knew where it’s at
My feet had on my lovers spats
Pure misery wrapped up in leopard print
It ain’t that smart, yes I’m aware
But still I’d follow anywhere
I’d trade a cheating heart for a creepin’ soul
(Chorus)
You took me back,
your lovin’ soul,
your givin’ me all,
your givin’ me all your lovin’
[all your lovin’] soul
What a prize for sweat stung eyes
I’m still believing all those lies
That led me off the path I’d stumbled on,
I’d stumbled on
It ain’t that smart, yes I’m aware
But still I’d follow anywhere
I’d trade my beating heart for a lovin’ soul
(Chorus)
All your lovin’ [all your lovin’]
All your lovin’ [all your lovin’] soul

Three Steps
02:54
|
|||
In the night we play
I can’t look the wrong way
One day it’s a kiss
The next it’s your fist
Keeps me on my toes
Higher highs, lower lows
On my arm one night
The next a public fight
Good day, bad day, what’ll it be
I’m not waitin’ ‘round to see
(Chorus)
I take one step, out the door
[You never wanted, you never wanted to leave]
I couldn’t take it anymore
[You never wanted, you never wanted me]
I take one step, out the door
[You never wanted, you never wanted to leave]
Couldn’t take it, take it, anymore
I could go or stay
You’ve got nothing to say
And I don’t need forgivin’
Was I really livin’
Thinkin’ of myself
I could find someone else
But in the back of my mind
I know I’ll never find
Good times, bad times, which’ll it be
I’m just waiting round to see
(Chorus)
You thought unattended that my
eager eye would wander
But absences in this case
has only made the thing stronger
I thought that I just couldn’t stand
another bout
Who’d of ever thought that’s what I
could not do without
(Chorus)

Dead Souls
03:14
|
|||
Spinning wheels for years now but ya,
but ya don’t make the scene
You’ve got some lovers and some haters,
but there’s nothing in between
You’ve been playing all alone in the forest,
you didn’t make a sound
There’s another world of untapped potential,
waiting underground
(Chorus)
[Dead souls] Improve a body’s station
[Dead souls] Like Gogol
[Dead souls] It’s Peter’s foundation
[Dead Souls]
Come on Prince Charming with an army like ya,
like you’ve been there before
Gotta ooze with the schmooze, maybe,
just maybe they’ll open up the door
Apply some makeup and some stardust droogie,
there’s no more Davey Jones
Cross a bridge on the backs of the nameless,
no one makes it alone
(Chorus)
And we all applaud, we love the perfect fraud
[And we all applaud, we love the perfect fraud] (x2)
It gets harder to disarm them,
now that they are under your skin
How’s about a little clarification,
not by the hair of my chin
Your so worried they won’t letcha,
if they catch ya, wasn’t a problem before
Is it better to be laughed at, or to be ignored
(Chorus x2)

More Time with You
03:34
|
|||
It's been a long dark alley,
not a peak in the valley, it’s true
If there’s an axe to grind,
some will always find, bad news
But there’s a glimmer on the lake
and it gives me back my faith, renewed
If’n a couple more miles,
it’ll make you smile, I’ll do
I don’t care what happens out there (x2)
(Chorus)
Cuz it gives me more, it gives me more time with you
There ain’t nothin else, there ain’t nothin that we gotta do
I said it gives me more time it gives me more time with you
Like rats in holes,
with rotting souls, nothing to do
And when a wisp of a cloud,
starts to look like a shroud, all lose
Sitting out all hours,
while the whole world cowers, so cool
And then I look in your eyes
and I realize, it’s true
I don’t care what happens out there (x2)
(Chorus)
I said it gives me more time with you
Said it gives me more time, we’re having good times
Yeah, it gives me more time, it gives me more time with you
Said it gives me more time, gives me more time with you

Hot Mess
02:11
|
|||
Like a mental break down
A hot mess and a shakedown
A universal silence
Or kick up the violence
(Chorus)
You’re always wasted on the phone
[You won’t tell me, you won’t tell me]
You’re always callin’, never leave me alone
[You won’t tell me, you won’t tell me]
I thought I broke that fishing line
[You won’t tell me, you won’t tell me]
I thought I told you, girl….I ain’t got the time
Like a mental breakdown
A hot mess in action
A total mental attraction
Still I’m gettin no action
(Chorus)
Like a mental breakdown
A hot mess and a shakedown
A universal silence
Or kick up the violence
(Chorus)

I Love Everything
01:24
|
|||
(Chorus)
Whoa ooh, I love everything
Whoa ooh, I love everything
I don’t really have to make the world a better place
I just have to find myself, myself a little space
(Chorus)
A place where I like what I see and I do what I like
And if you are there with me, we’ll that is really just alright and I say
(Chorus)

Groveling Flamingo
02:00
|

Aauugghhaaww
The groveling flamingo
Aauugghhaaww
Puts both feet down and shuts one eye
Cause a rocker’s gotta stabilize (omitted for brevity)
The groveling flamingo

Time Goes By
02:52
|
|||
It creeps without a sound
Deep in the back of your mind
Focus on the road
You’ll see it in the corner of your eye
A stealthy saboteur
One step ahead all the time
(Chorus)
Not mass destruction [As time goes by]
A daily obstruction [As time goes by]
You’ll see less clearly [As time goes by]
And you’ll pay dearly,
as it ever so stealthy eats up your soul
Gotta hand in all the plans
It goes up, it may not come down
Don’t care where it lands
He’ll kill them the next time around
As fated as it seems
You scream but it don’t make a sound
(Chorus x2)
|

Another Day
02:28
|
|||
I’ll say this about that
Oh no it’s just old hat
If it’s not one thing, it’s the other
If I may interject
Let’s change the dialect
You use that mouth to kiss your mother
(Chorus)
It’s for another day
Be that as it may
It’s for another day, it’s for another day
No limits can’t be overcome
Epiphany can’t be outrun
At least nobody cares
Inspired and oppressed
It is what suits the best
There must be a story there
(Chorus x4)

Distance Between
03:53
|
|||
I stare out, at the faces in the crowd
Thoughts of one, their shouts a fading hum
Oblivious to their dance, I sit here hoping that by chance
That you walk through the door
(Chorus)
I know, I know, I know
The life I bleed is the one I need
I hope, I hope, I hope
It’s worth the distance between, distance between, you and me
Night after night, our efforts reward
Dark lows, bright highs, a heavy load
Yet the need to play, it seems to pull me further away
You know, you know, it’d end this way
(Chorus)
I stare out, at the faces in the crowd
Thoughts of one, their shouts a fading hum
It’s the ache I have to bear, it is the mask I have to wear
And I, and I, just wish you cared
(Chorus x2)
