Trade you my girlfriend for your guitar
Know that string will only bend so far
Everybody sells me
Everybody tells me how
Cause I'm feeling a little wired
I'm not drunk, I'm just tired
And I'm not gonna get fired
Cause perfection's not required
When you figure out what's going on
We'll get drunk and then we'll write a song
When somebody shows me
When somebody shows me how
Cause I'm feeling a little wired
I'm not drunk, I'm just tired
And I'm not gonna get fired
Cause perfection's not required
Well, I'm feeling a little wired
I'm not drunk yet, I'm just tired
And I'm not gonna get fired
Cause perfection's not required
Well, I'm feeling a little wired
I'm not drunk, I'm just tired
And I'm not gonna get fired

It's my decision, I'm gonna be the man
Smash the television and take a stand
And it's my opinion, you could use a hand
Smash the indecision and take my hand
On this caravan into the promised land
It's my communion, I'm down on my knees
You've got to pray for our union and believe in me...
I'm asking for your hand into the promised land
When he met her she was just 19, and everything was right
On the way back home they stopped and kissed
On a cold November night
Five years on he bought a ring
Almost to the day
A year went by she gave it back
Nothing left to say
And it's my confusion, that's tearing me apart
And your disillusion burns inside my heart
I've been tried and convicted
You're sending me away
I'll have the last inscription
On judgement day...

At the end of motion
Commit me to the ocean
At the end of thinking
All I want is sinking
The worldly pain of life I leave behind
The give and take of love is not a crime
Like wasting time
It's kinda like a fever
My sleep is getting deeper
It's kinda like a sunset
Fade to black, but not yet
The earthly joy of sex and weed and wine
The high and low of life is not a crime
Like wasting time
It's time I started a fire
Not just a funeral pyre
It's time I get busy living
Not just taking but giving
And leave the pain and hurt and fear behind
And throw away the chains and free my mind
And open up my heart and let love shine
Wasting time
Say goodbye to lonely, Say goodbye to worry
Say goodbye to money, Say goodbye to hurry

Wait a minute can we stop the car right here
Can I take a picture here can I
Have a second just to take in all the sights
All the southern stars and northern lights
Wait a minute can we put aside the past
Can we make it something last for life
Say wrong say right tonight
Say wrong say right tonight
Wait a minute can you play that song again
It makes me think about a friend can I
Have a second can you take me back in time
Close my eyes and hear her voice her rhyme
Wait a minute can I say I'm sorry now
I admit I don't know how or why
Say wrong say right tonight
I need everything that you need
I breathe the same air that you breathe
Say wrong say right tonight
I need everything that you need
I breathe the same air that you breathe
And I've been wrong now for so long

Blame it on the whiskey
Blamed it on your job
Blame the broken promises
And the words can cut so strong
Blame it on the doctors
Blame it on this song
Blame it on your childhood
But I knew all along
And I cried myself to sleep at night
Black and blue eyes, I could see
Thinking about leaving
Then I'd blame it all on me
And you twist my arm
Twist my arm
You shout about the money
And you'd shout late at night
And you'd shout about my mother
You know you're wasting my time
I won't tell you that for fear of my life
I could never figure out
The gifts you bring me hours
After you pushed me to the ground
And you twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm
Don't twist it, no don't twist it
I prayed that you were leaving
Prayed I could turn and run
Prayed I had the strength
Closed my eyes, I shot your gun
You twist my arm
Twist my arm
Twist my arm

Where you going, whatcha looking for
You're looking alright to me
When you grow up what do you want to be
Watcha doing, can I play too
I had a good life today
Mamma said it's alright, you can stay
And it's one, two, three I got my hey Marie
Come on let's climb a tree up to the sky
What's the matter, do you feel alright
Maybe you should stay in bed
Honey it's not what you did it's what you said
How'd you do that will you show me how
I wanna grow up so fast
No one told me that the child in me won't last
Well, let's climb a tree, I got my hey Marie
Come on and look at me up in the sky
I never had the chance to say goodbye
I never had a treehouse in the sky
And it's one, two, three I got my hey Marie
Come on and look at me up in the sky

I don't know about you
I don't know about your life
She's living without you
She's living without your lies
I knew she was all here
Could tell by the way she talked
She was tired of crying
Could tell by the way she walked
She walked through the weather
Took herself out of the game
Now her head's back together
Too bad you can't say the same
You're far away looking
She's pretty as you please
Had a good thing going
Too bad it went up and down
A little too much showing
All alone is a lonely sound
She walked through the weather
Took herself out of the game
Now her head's back together
Too bad you can't say the same
You won't want to hear this
Broken ashes to your knees
You're far away looking
She's pretty as you please
She walked through the weather
Took herself out of the game
Now her head's back together

He takes the pain with his coffee
Stirs up his memory
On the streets where he wants to be
Mixing up a remedy
He lights up a cigarette
One thing he ain't quittin' yet
He leans on the launderette
Trusts no one he's ever met
Yeah, the sun don't shine for me
Addiction is gradual
Love is a chemical
God is habitual
Pain is desirable
Yeah, the sun don't shine
And the rain it don't mind
Yeah, the sun don't shine for me....
For me
I'm not the one to tell you lies
I don't mean to glamorize.
It'll knock you right down to size
Don't need it to make me wise
Yeah, the sun don't shine
And the rain it don't mind
Yeah, the sun don't shine for me....
For me
You really got me going
Through my veins the blood is flowing
You really had me going

If I sing you one more song, baby would you come along
you can tell me what to do
If I kiss you one more time, baby would you read my sign
you can tell me that we're through
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna hold you one more time or maybe two
I just wanna be with you 'cause I'm a fool
If I pour you one more wine, baby can you read my mind
you can play me for a fool
If I stay just one more night, baby will you hold me tight
you can use me like a tool
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna hold you one more time or maybe two
I just wanna be with you 'cause I'm a fool

You lift me up to knock me down
But I don't want to play your game
I'm giving back this thorny crown
And there'll be no one else to blame
I used to think you had a heart
Then you picked up that poison pen
I should have known right from the start
That all good things come to an end
I'm not gonna waste my precious time
I know I'm never gonna change your mind
Cause you know everything
You know everything
You know everything
You hung my pictures on the wall
But nothing in this world is free
Now you won't even catch my fall
It's murder in the first degree
I've been torn up I've been knocked down
That's all you ever meant to do
You've taken back your thorny crown

i met a man out on a bridge pier
he said he's gonna jump to save his soul
i said what's the world done to make you mad man
he said sit down son now here's the dope
i can't find work 'cause i'm a blind man
i can't see but sometimes i can see the light
now is my life a labor of love or is my life a love of labor
i still got a hollow feeling in my life
what a way to go
what a way to go
what a way to go
what a way to go
i met this girl her name escapes me
said son i'd love you to be my man
she wrote her name out on a dollar
i spent that dollar on a shot of jim
spent it on a shot of jim
i talked him down and then i walked off
i turned around and he was gone himself
a mile down the road it came upon me
it was me i talked off that ledge
it was me i talked off that ledge
it was me i talked off that ledge
what a way to go
what a way to go

there's a trian of love comin' round the corner
there's a trian of love crossing the border
there's a trian of love comin' round the corner
gonna jump on gonna jump on at the border
trian of love is comin' round the corner
i got the fear of god and some money tucked away in my shoe
i got a little green bud in a locket with a picture of you
i got permission from your dad and a kiss from your mother
they send you their love they want to send you your brother
trian of love is comin' round the corner
the engineer is crazy and the train is travellin' so fast
you've got to jump on the future with little regard for the past
johnny walked the line and i'm gonna follow
get her home tonight she might not see tomorrow
trian of love is comin' round the corner
grab your levi's and bring your cowboy boots
quit your job say goodbye tell your friends you're leaving tonight
on the train of love
train of love
train of love
if you're feeling kind of crazy we could take this train through the woods
we'll get married in the forest honeymoon in my neighborhood
the twins are on the way hannah and samantha
we'll buy a big house and live happy ever after
trian of love is comin' round to take me to you
grab your levi's and bring your cowboy boots
quit your job say goodbye tell your friends you're leaving tonight
on the train of love
train of love
train of love
train of love
train of love
(solo)
train of love
train of love
train of love
train of love
trian of love is comin' round the corner
trian of love is comin' round the corner
trian of love is comin' round the corner

They grew up in the shadow of the armory
Land of freedom right out their back door
Brothers near the middle of the century
One of them had to go and fight the war
Somebody had to go and fight the war
And the train goes...
So he left upon the rails toward Ohiopyle
Youghiogheny flows around the bend
He told his mother someday he'd be coming home
The medals shine and the stars never end
But nobody counts on scars that never mend
And the train goes...
Cast iron wheels go hungry in the fields
Searching for that silver line a long, long way to go
Cast iron hearts go hungry for spare parts
Searching for a hand to hold on late night radio
He flew missions out of London into Germany
In letters she read once then locked away
With a picture of him smiling at the armory
The colors in that flag all washed away
It's just black and white and a hundred shades of gray
And the train goes...

Well they come from miles around
Just to listen to the sound
On a train and getting close
Caravan from coast to coast
And she hears a little voice
Gettin drunk and makin noise
And the band has come to play
Gone tomorrow, here today
When the day comes to an end
On the tracks up around the bend
Today
People ask and you'll receive
Just don't ask to ever leave
'Cause this day comes once a year
And today it seems so clear
When the day comes to an end
On the tracks up around the bend
The tradition carries on
As the train drives through the dawn
Today
Today
Today
Today
Today

if i met you you were mistaken
and i'll bet you'll be gone today
cause you got what you wanted from others
but you found out it's not my way
and i'll never lend you my records
and i'll never lend you the cash
cause to you it's always like christmas
and i know you're just a flash in the pan of love
well you hustle drinks from the cotton twill boys
even ones you didn't know
made him work for his last dollar
and you made him walk home in the snow
you thought it was rough when you thought you were down
your living in greed got you running around
thought it was love but you sure had to go
thought it was free now you spend it alone
so don't tell me that the men don't love you
you made the rules you've got to sleep with the game
hustle wine on wednesdays and thursdays
want a husband the rest of the days
then you ask if this song's got your name on it
is this song about you or for you
guilt is the only cause in the world for your fear does it really annoy you
you thought it was rough when you thought you were down
living in greed got you running around
thought it was love but you sure had to go
thought it was free now you spend it alone
you thought it was free
thought it was free
you thought it was free
thought it was free
you thought it was free
it takes a truck to take what you've taken
i gotta squint to see what you gave
it takes a shovel to hear what you're talking
it takes a miracle to make you stay
you thought it was rough when you thought you were down
living in greed got you running around
thought it was love but you sure had to go
thought it was free now you spend it alone
you thought it was free
you thought it was free
you thought it was free

This old house is burning down tonight
I'm gonna watch it burn
I'm gonna stand out in the road
This old house is burning down tonight
Front porch, back door, well-worn wooden floor
All agree that since you're gone
The TV, sofa bed, brand new stereo
Just can't seem to get along
They'll all be ashes by the dawn
Your Beatles, my Stones, your My Aim Is True
Staying up late every night
With your cigarettes, Jim Beam, gallon of gasoline
Did someone say they need a light
You'll see my love for you burns bright
So send your sheriff to arrest me
He'll have to cross the county line
I'll get the devil to defend me
I was only burnin' what was mine
Black shirt, black boots, favorite pair of blue jeans
I saved my coat, I saved my hat
But your white dress, gold band, silver frame and photograph
Stayed behind the welcome mat
I never really liked your cat
This old house is burning down tonight
All Halloween orange and chimney red
This old house is burning down tonight
You're gonna say My God! when you see it on the news
And by the time the ceiling hits the ground

It only happens when I'm dreaming
It keeps on playing in my head
Recalling something that was steaming
All of this stress will leave you dead
Thankful to be alive
What I have learned and why
Friday I should have stayed in bed
Close your eyes and think of England
Lay back and take it
Close your eyes and feel alone.........
Close your eyes and think of England
You won't regret it
Tonight I won't be coming home
We crashed but gave life in November
There was no blood to talk about
Only that we survived
And parts for another life
All's well but time is running out
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, oh,
Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, oh......
Tonight I won't be coming home
Tonight I won't be coming home::.

After 3 years ya know I'd die for you
But I wouldn't cross the street to shake your hand
If it turns out that I get nine lives
I'd swear in 3 years you took 10
Our kisses don't seem that right anymore
It seems we're living outta fear
And out love is like a foggy vacation
And I'm wishing you were clear
Well I'm wishing on my dear
That these devils were not here
If you would listen you could here
I'm still waiting on my dear
For your love...your love
Your love...your love
Well I fed the cats and
I put out the trash
To the big can in the back
And the apartment we shared next to the neighbor
Who cared a little too much for us
Well ya worked out the paper
While I sat home in bed
Wishing all the wishes I could wish
Seems like we love everything we could not have
And we hate everything that we need
Well I'm wishing on my dear
That these devils were not here
If you would listen you could here
I'm still waiting on my dear
For your love...your love
Your love...your love
After 3 years ya know I'd die for you
But I wouldn't cross the street to shake your hand
If it turns out that I get nine lives
I'd swear in 3 years you took 10
Our kisses don't seem that right anymore
It seems we're living outta fear
And out love is like a foggy vacation
And I'm wishing you were clear
Well I'm wishing on my dear
That these devils were not here
If you would listen you could here
I'm still waiting on my dear
For your love...your love

I can see your eyes they're right in front of me
They follow me through town
I can hear your voice it speaks inside of me
It makes me want to write it down
Makes me want to write it down
I can smell your skin it's wrapped all over me
Just like an evening gown
I can taste your mouth it's wet and under me
It makes me want to write it down
Makes me want to write it down for your reaction
I'm a letter waiting at your door
Deliver me and don't forget to write
I love you one more time goodbye
I'm a fallen angel on the floor
Come set me free and look up to the sky
I love you one more time goodbye
I can feel your hand it moves around on me
Push me to the ground
I can tell you're here you're deep inside of me
It makes me want to write it down
Makes me want to write it down for your reaction
I'm a letter waiting at your door
Deliver me and don't forget to write
I love you one more time goodbye
I'm a fallen angel on the floor
Come set me free and look up to the sky

In a box, by the door
I keep a letter you sent before
It says keep, your head up high
I'll think about you while you drive
And when you get up on that stage you will arrive
A collect phone call, the lobby's bare
It's a call to know I care
It's a postcard in the mail
To let you know I haven't failed
And if I miss one day it's been a long, long trail
Welcome to my world
I'm coming home.
And in this hotel lobby
You leave me alone
Will you be there when I return
It's been a question of some concern
And who's to say, what's less or more
Oh, I'll be waiting at your door
And when I see you, I'll know what I've waited for
It's the way we see the world
There's other ways we can't afford
From town to town, we're sometimes late
You hurry up and then you wait

By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone again
By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone again
You tell me you're lonely
You tell me you're only
Trying to get what you want
You tell me you're crazy
Drugs make you lazy
You're living on the battlefront
By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone again
By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone again
You tell me you know me
You're gonna show me
Show me what you really want
You tell me you need me
You're gonna please me
Just tell me what you really want
By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone again
By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone
Again
On the battle line
Again
Don't you want me this time
Again
On the battlefront
Again
What you really want is me
You tell me you're lonely
You tell me you're only
Trying to get what you want
You tell me you're crazy
Drugs make you lazy
You're living on the battlefront
You tell me you know me
You're gonna show me
Show me what you really want
You tell me you need me
You're gonna please me
Just tell me what you want
You tell me you're lonely
You tell me you're only
Trying to get what you want
By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone again
By the look in your eyes I can see
That you'll never be alone again
By the look in your eyes I can see

Know what you're feeling
It's all so real to you
Through your glass ceiling
You can't see the sky
Your angels have fallen
Your faith reads like fiction now
Your demons keep calling
And you let them inside
Time is on your side
And you won't run and hide forever no
You're gonna let it go
Oh yeah
You're down upon your knees
But time is all you need to make it through
And you're gonna make it through
Oh yeah...take your time
The mirror is broken
Your pieces are everywhere
You gather them hoping
Just leave it behind
Your down upon your knees
But time is all you need to carry you
Don't let it bury you
Oh yeah...Take your time
You can't see it
But the pain that keeps dragging you down

You changed the world, you blinked your eyes
But you never said goodbye
You saved a life with words my friend
Believe your songs can mend
Never bought a drunk a drink
Never swam swim just to sink
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
Superstar, Superstar
You laugh and sing, the whole world cries
Say you're too young to die
Some luck can mend and bend your mind
Or just make you blind
Never speak just to lie
Never live just to die
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
You're a face in the crowd, and you're screaming out loud, Superstar
Superstar, Superstar
There's a place in my mind you'll never find
At the end of a bar and a rhyme
Never gave a drunk a drink
Never cry just to blink
Never run just to fall

Sometimes I think of you
It happens oh so fast
If I closed my eyes, it would all go by
The strangest freaky thing that ever passed that night
In a big block dodge
It was two lanes wide
We wrestled with the heat and let the radio drive
There was something in the air
More deadly than fire
I picked up the key, the hotel clerk knew I lied
He said, stop, take a look around
Everbody see what's going down
Stop, take a look around
Everybody see what's going down
It was a night I will forget
And I don't remember why
All she was wearin' was something I'd seen
From a late night show on cable TV
Where'd the ring go, that he got you
Would he know the way you felt
It's just one fling, before the bells ring
Don't hit below the belt
Ahh, take a look around
Cause the truth that you might be running from
Is bigger than a river called the Amazon
It is a night you may regret
Just don't ask me why
Bless me father for I have sinned
Can you get me out of this mess I'm in
Sometimes I think of you
It happens oh so fast
If I closed my eyes, it would all go by
The strangest freaky thing that ever passed bye bye
Where's the time go, where's the love go
When you live out a fantasy
The sun will shine, you can brush it off
And say it never happened to me
Ahh, take a look around
Cause the truth that you might be runnin' from
Is bigger than a river called the Amazon.

All I wanted was to find my way
All I wanted was to save the day
All I wanted was to be your friend
That's all I wanted in the end
From the corner of my eye I saw you flaming across the sky
There was nothing I could do than to burn up next to you
There's a fire burning in me
It's a storm bound to win me over
People run, December morning
They run to sound the warning
Over
When we lay down in the grass
All my feelings turn to ash
All the pieces of my soul
Heart to harden into coal
In the middle of the stormy weather
When our bones start to fuse together
All the protons and unnamed neutrons
Explode in me
There's a fire burning in me
It's a storm bound to win me over
People run, December morning
They run to sound the warning
Over, it's over
Sound the warning
Sound the warning
Sound the warning

If I had a dollar
I'd buy a house where we could live
Caring for each other
Just a place to call our home
And if we just knew wrong from right
We would not hurt we would not fight
Dream sweet dreams all through the night
Until the morning comes
If I had someone to love
I would not push I would not shove
I'd never know what lonely was
Because I'd never be alone
And if I had a hand to hold
I'd hold it tight until I grew old
And listen to your stories told
They keep me hanging on
If I had a magic charm
It would protect you from all harm
There'd be no sirens to alarm
We could stay here every day
And if I were a super hero
Good guys all the villains zero
I'd save you from all that is evil

Pick me up
Are you holding, man
Up all night
Please don't melt
Falling down
Bump me up
Time to hit the town
God save the Snowman
His teeth are falling out,
His head is in the clouds
His nose is on the ground
God save the Snowman
Jump my heart
Because I'm coming down
Save my life
Help him get
The carrot from his mind
Falling down, not being round
The flakes go up, not hit the ground
Falling down, not being round
Toast the day to winter's clown
won't need a broom to help him now.
Get it up
Wish I could
Get a life
Not this time

She is sitting all alone but he sent flowers
All alone she sits there thinking this is not right
She questions all her thoughts at home for hours
He offers nothing in return for her to sit tight
Her dreams are tired and bound
Her stars are all falling down
I won't make a sound
She just sleeps right through the day when the suns up
Never knowing how to finish her dreams
All her friends will go away when she wakes up
She won't need them when there's something to believe in
The nighttime isn't so kind
Too many truths there to find
I won't change her mind
She says don't miss me
I will be alright
Because I'm not alone
I will be alright
She says don't leave tonight
She wonders why it's not right
She sees her visions in flight
I will hold on tight
I won't give her a fight
She says don't miss me
I will be alright
Because I'm not alone

she says she's free
but she's got a baby and she don't look free to me
she don't need love
she calls him to come home she calls him her tommy gun
she revolves around the sun
she revolves around the sun
she don't need me
like she don't need breathing and she don't need eyes to see
she says it's hard
berries and babies are growing in her backyard
she revolves around the sun
she revolves around the sun
she revolves around the sun
she revolves around the sun
(solo)
she revolves around the sun
she revolves around the sun
she revolves around the sun

Well we've all been through it, thinking times are tough
And I'll see you through it, when you've had enough
And I'll be beside you, many feelings the same
Give back the ruin, give back the rain
Well we've both felt lovely, things are going our way
May you rise above me, may you have your day
And I'll be proud of you, when I call out your name
Give back the ruin, give back the rain
And you know it's the only bridge I know that's still above water
I'm praying my insurance is gonna pay
And you know it's the only road I know that's still above water
I'm praying my family is gonna stay
Well we've both been better, or worse I suppose
And I got your letter, and I washed your clothes
And I'll be right with you, every step of the way
Give back the ruin, give back the rain
And I'll be proud of you, when I call out your name

there's a penny on the floor and you're gone
the television's on
have you found another man to take my place
there's a penny on the floor and i'm wise
i try to see in your eyes
but all i see is a reflection of my face
there's a penny on the floor and you're gone
i'm trying to right what's wrong
a stronger man might do it with more grace
there's a penny on the floor and i'm wise
i look up to the skies
i cry and pray and i stare out into space
there's a penny on the floor and you're standing at the door
turn around and say goodbye
a woman like you comes around just once a life
there's a penny on the floor and and i'm strong
i'll try to carry on
realizing no one can take your place
there's a penny on the floor and and i'm fine
i know it's gonna take some time
before i look at you without looking at my own face
penny on the floor i'm tired of the war
penny on the track are you coming back
there's a penny on the floor and it stays
as a tribute to the days
that were spent with you no one can take them away
there's a penny on the floor and it stays
as a tribute to the ways
you filled my soul with courage hope and grace
there's a penny on the floor and you're standing at the door
turn around and say goodbye
a woman like you comes around just once a life
there's a penny on the floor and you're standing at the door
turn around and say goodbye

You grew up in a sheltered world where money meant a lot
Your mother was a faker your parents always fought
The values they meant more before when i look at your place
Your hair it cost a hundred dollars and there's shit all over your face
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much time
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much time
The stories that we used to tell of how we'd beg and borrow
I hear your son is screaming pop would you buy me a car tomorrow
They sued the principal today for putting sister in her place
But all she sees is a reflection and the razors in her face
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much time
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much there's too much time
Your father thought he sheltered you and kept you from temptation
Now you watch a lot of tv and you tell him that you hate him
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much time
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much time
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much time
Out of sight out of mind
Too much money too much time

I met a girl that I dreamed about for years
Dreamed I'd have no fears, a place to stay
Believe me when I say she had some plans for me
But all the plans she had for me will never be
One day in my life
One day in my life
One day I won't be coming home to you
One day in my life
She had some things for sure that she would want of me
And all the things she wants of me can never be
And as for me I never ask more than I need
But one day, I will ask to be free
One day in my life
One day in my life
One day I won't be coming home to you
One day in my life
She reminds me of the things I couldn't be
Or if I could, it just would not be me
Don't get me wrong it's part of life, it's just a game
They call it Kooties maybe Twister, roll away
Please, please where did he go? Why did he leave?
She said sometimes I'm just a little hard to please
If you see me on the corner I am free
One foot on the bus and off the trapoline
One day in my life
One day in my life
One day I won't be coming home to you
One day in my life

I'm gonna quit cause it's getting old
And it'll save my life or so I've been told
You see I got this thing that I like to do
But it seems to get between me and you
You won't understand if you gotta ask why
But if it's what you want I guess I'll try
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
I can't find my key I know where it went
Straight out the door with half the rent
But I got this song that I like to sing
You can keep the key I'll keep the ring
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
And she said it's not you I just need my space
I said it is me just say it to my face
All in time it will be fine
Just me, myself and I
Sublime
We're breaking up, you're moving out, on Saturday
I'm losing friends, I'm losing face, I'm losing weight
So get your things out of my place on Saturday
On Saturday, on Saturday, on Saturday
And she it is you and I found somebody new

The expressway ends
In front of me
I've been here before
I was too close to see
Well, I'm going back
To my hometown
Well I won't stay long
Because I can't sit down
Well I used to say
That I hate this place
It was a different time
And a different face
Then a couple of years
Caught in between
You'd think I'd learn
You'd think I'd seen
On my way back home
How's it feel to be alone?
Do you wanna be alone?
Well I'm set in my ways
The way I live my life
I never get to low
I never get to high
I'm not too far gone
But I'm not all there
If I learned at all
I learned in there
On my way back home
How's it feel to be alone?
Do you wanna be alone?
On my way back to Narrow's (?) farm
I can't believe that I've been gone this long
Well I'm settling back for another night
And I'll strum on my porch in the pale moon light
I don't mind it here in the cool night air
Because I know someday I'll be somewhere
On my way back home
On my way back home
How's it feel to be alone?

Days pass and the weeks go by
Dream for hours 'bout the future
See the faces and the names go by
Between now and then...
These days
Years pass and your life goes by
All the while you stop to wonder
Brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers lie
Between now and then...
These days
Between now and then...
These days
Do you walk all the way?
Carry all that weight
Do you walk all the way?
Now and then
Days pass and the weeks go by
Dream for hours 'bout the future
See the faces and the names go by
Between now and then...
These days
Between now and then...
These days
Between now and then...

Momma ran off with a man from town
Daddy came home, found the note, got drunk and fell down
Jessie was crying, no tears would be saved
I couldn't take it so I started pining straight for the grave
I should've told you that night that we slept in the car
I would've told you but I never saw us getting this far
I met a man in a suit, he said he'd give me a job
I wouldn't have to pay taxes and I wouldn't have to rob
Man it was easy, all I had to do was drive
I didn't care what was in the suitcase, it felt good to be alive
I should've told you that night that we slept in the car
I would've told but I never saw us getting this far
I know I've been hard on you baby
Momma should've known that you can't grow up alone
And we will be together someday maybe
There's no place called home
Something was funny, the whole deal kind of strange
I could hear Momma saying son you're Daddy ain't never gonna change
I was down in an instant, just a big flash of light
Undercover lie bleeding, I guess I put up a fight
I should've told you that night we made love on the bar
I would've told you but I never saw us getting this far
I know I've been hard on you baby
Momma should've known that you can't grow up alone
And we will be together someday maybe

I'm you, you're me
You can't run from a lack of mystery
Please just go away
I'm right, you're wrong
You can't hide in a place you don't belong
Please just go away
And I'll never let you
Never let you down
I'm through, you're free
It's head first in the lap of luxury
Please just go away
Alright, you're dead wrong
You can't run, you can't drag me along
Please just go away
And I'll never let you
Never let you down
Fine you're gone away, tell me one more day
I know you're gonna stay, you ask if there's a way
I'm you, you're me
You can't run, you can't stay pissed at me
Please don't go away
And I'll never let you

Leave for the country let the day begin
I carry my share of original sin
I'm writing you a letter from a telephone
Sign it messenger man in the great unknown
And I wanna be like Mercury
With the wind blowin' through my hair
Swim up the river to the cedar trees
Follow the sun and catch a nice cool breeze
Bicycle trail only runs so far
This is a place you can't get by car
And I wanna be like Mercury
With the wind blowin' through my hair
Walk through the woods on a moonlit night
I carry a compass and a small flashlight
Deliver my message in a mason jar
Planting my seeds they're growing star to star
And I wanna be like Mercury

Maybe I should turn and walk away
Maybe I should run, but I'll probably bow my head and pray
Maybe I'll search the lost and found
Maybe like two boxers bloodied, dizzied by the seventh round
Maybe circumstances make it easier to quit
Maybe in our circle, square pieces never fit
But I want you to know
I've never walked away from the things I've wanted
I've never walked away, but I think I'm going to
This time
I've never walked away from the things I've wanted
I've never walked away, but I think I'm going to
This time
Maybe I'll move back across town
Maybe in a week or two, we can talk, but not right now
Maybe your mind plays tricks on me
Maybe it's the drawer of letters everyday I read
Maybe these tears don't look so gallant
Maybe it's a chemical imbalance
Maybe it's the lack of sunlight
But I want you to know
Still I want you to know
Maybe it hurts below the skin
Maybe lessons finally sinking in

Madeline flows like the summer stream
She talks with her eyes, she moves in a dream
Serenity grows in a pasture of green, and Madeline flows
Abagail flies on a silver wing
She might let me go she might let me sing
Prosperity lies in a mountain of things, and Abagail flies
When you find her tell her you don't mind the way that she crosses her legs
She winks to let you know
I only like to observe I don't profess to know
Kira comes on like the morning sun
She opens her eyes, she looks out for fun
Affinity flies through a canyon of one, and Kira comes on
Tabatha walks in the pouring rain
She closes her eyes to block out the pain
Disparity flows through a river of shame, and Tabatha walks
When you find her tell her you don't mind the way that she crosses her legs
She winks to let you know
I only like to observe I don't profess to know
And in the garden of blue she's coming back to you and the feeling is true
Oh Madeline won't you tell me what your gonna do
And when you find her tell her you mind the way she crosses her heart
And says I hope to die
I guess I'll never know you I guess I'll never know why
And in the garden of blue she's coming back to you and the feeling is true

Until we meet again
I'll think of you my friend
If thoughts are what you need
Until we say hello
You know I know you know
I'm down here on my knees
Let's give it one more try
Never say goodbye
Your hand it holds the key
Love is what you need
Until we meet for good
I'll take these wires and this wood
And tell you how I feel
Until we stand alone
Face to face and no more phone
Tell me this is real
Let's give it one more chance
Hold tight when we dance
Your eyes they hold the key
Until we meet again
I won't think about the end
Have a smoke and have a drink
Until we find a way
I'll keep singing about that day
I never cared what people think

I didn't think you had it in you to up and move away
All the dreams we shared baby well I hope you like LA
I was writing in my book of regrets how it seems like yesterday
It's kind of funny how that so many things rhyme with gone away
I saw the sun when I hit the ground
Took a look in the lost and found
Lost my friends but I found myself okay
It wouldn't do us any good for me to try to make you stay
It's kind of funny how that so many things time has washed away
I saw the sun when I hit the ground
Took a look in the lost and found

He met a girl on the beach in his Chevrolet
A girl that he loved that he gave away
She said go boy go, will this make you stay
He said thanks a lot, he said not today
She tried so hard she tried so long
That she lost her sense of right and wrong
He said he heard a word coming from above
He said the closest thing to death is love
Hold on, no, don't let go
I want to hold you tonight and never let you go
Hold on, no, don't let go
I want to hold you tonight and never let you go
When you wait too long and you find out that what you had was free
And the tears you fought were telling you
Just what you really need
He had to sing a song so he left that land
He never said goodbye he never held her hand
He was home in a year a broken man
Couldn't find the girl who would love him again
Now the only girls that will hold him again
Are his mother and his sister Ann
And he drives around in the Chevrolet
And he sits in the back and he cries everyday
In the car that he let the girl get away
Hold on, no, don't let go
I want to hold you for life and never let you go
Hold on, no, don't let go
I want to hold you for life and never let you
Let you
Let you
Let you

Got a message on the phone
She said let's meet I'm all alone
Do you want to see me die
Would you please stop by
She knows I follow her around
Ever since she came to town
She dreams about me in her sleep
I feel it's something she can keep
Let me down
Walk around
See me cry
So let me die
My friends stop to ask me why
They don't want to see me die
If you follow her home
She lives on the wrong side of the road
Let me down
Walk around
See me cry

Good days, bad days, pioneers of love and hope and sex and dreams
and Sunny came clear
Everything reminds me of my baby
Late night, skin tight, dresser drawers going down on dirty boulevard
five and dime store whores
Everything reminds me of my baby
I keep thinking maybe time will mend this broken down
I keep thinking I'm not crazy
Redwood, gold dust radio plays everything from High and Dry
to Sunny Came Home
All these songs remind me of my baby
Fake bake Holly wouldn't give a shit wears everything from corduroy jeans
to double knit
All these girls are nothing like my baby
I keep thinking maybe time will mend this broken down
I keep thinking I'm not crazy
I keep thinking maybe time will heal 'cause drugs don't help
I'll stop singing songs about my:
Can anyone tell me why the things that are meant to stay they turn and go
Can anyone tell me why we lust after the things we'll never know
I'll just have to let it go
Good times, bad times, red times blue equals Special K's psychedelic
satin purple shoe
I've done some foolish things but who can blame me
Good night, sleep tight, pioneers of lust and guns and hate and greed
and Sunny knows fear
If God don't kill me I know she's gonna save me
I keep thinking maybe time will mend this broken down
I keep thinking I'm not crazy
Can anyone tell me why the things that are meant to stay they turn and go
Can anyone tell me why we lust after the things we'll never know
I'll just have to let it
I'll just have to let it
I'll just have to let it go

It's a late night in this town
It's time to move on
And our time, it came and went
Find your coat, find your keys
Find the man of your dreams
And how much money he spent
So set down your drink
You've had more than you should
Your last chance has just come and gone
Well she's gone for the door
And she looks all alone
Let me know what she looks like at dawn
Last call, again
Last call, do you know where you're going
Last call, again
There are lovers and fighters
at 2:00 AM
A big girl named Carol,
Well she just left with Jim
And it's hard sometimes
To make up your mind
They're out in the lot
And she's going down on him
So roll your leg over
Take the bow not the stern
And pray before you begin
'Cause this date's not your mate
And it's not where you're going
But more like where they've been
Slip a beer in your coat
Keep your arms to your side
'Cause going home,
That's a pretty good drive
Keep it under the dash
And watch who you pass

Uh, you don't have to be beautiful to turn me on
I just need your body baby, from dusk till dawn
You don't need experience to turn me out
You just leave it all up to me, I'm gonna show you what it's all about
You don't have to be rich to be my girl
You don't have to be cool to rule my world
Ain't no particular sign, I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your kiss
You got to not talk dirty baby, if you wanna impress me
You can't be too flirty mama, I know how to undress me, yeah
I want to be your fantasy, maybe you could be mine
You just leave it all up to me, we could have a good time
You don't have to be rich to be my girl
You don't have to be cool to rule my world
Ain't no particular sign, I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your kiss
Yes oh, I think I wanna dance, uh, gotta, gotta, oh
Little Girl Wendy's Parade, gotta, gotta, gotta
Women, not girls, rule my world, I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama, not your shoe size, maybe we could do the twirl
You don't have to watch Dynasty to have an attitude, uh
You just leave it all up to me, my love will be your food, yeah
You don't have to be rich to be my girl
You don't have to be cool to rule my world
Ain't no particular sign, I'm compatible with

Lonely faces all along the way
Broken city all dressed up in gray
In the rain outside the restaurant
I make money but I still feel broke
I start drinking and I want a smoke
Doing doughnuts in the parking lot
Driving fast moving cars and drinking
Old in these bars and thinking I could
Paint all those stars
Empty bottles on an empty stage
End of story on the final page
Of a book that no one knows about
This is it this is my last goodbye
This is where my dreams go to die
In the trash behind the record shop
I'm driving fast moving cars and drinking
Old in these bars and thinking I could
Paint all those stars
Singing old timey songs and thinking I could
Right all these wrongs and drinking 'til the
Pain is all gone
After all this time I still believe
With a few tricks hidden up my sleeve

your mama cries your daddy lies your sister falls to the ground
you make your way upstairs pulling out what's left of your hair
the spinning starts to die down
king of the asylum
king of the asylum for a day
king of the asylum
king of the asylum for a day
you were the one you had your fun
but you left it along the way
but i got the joke you gotta smoke
you didn't care anyway
king of the asylum
king of the asylum for a day
king of the asylum
king of the asylum anyway
tell me when he laugh tell me when he cries
tell me when he's gone way down inside
tell me when he lives i know he's gonna die
tell me when he's gone i won't be mighty mighty mighty mighty surprised
to find you're still around you never left town
you should've got on that out of town train
king of the asylum
king of the asylum for a day
king of the asylum
king of the asylum for a day
king of the asylum
king of the asylum for a day
king of the asylum
king of the asylum anyway
tell me when he laugh tell me when he cries
tell me when he's gone way down inside
tell me when he lives i know he's gonna die

Will you walk with me
Will you talk with me
Take my hand let fate decide
We'll go out for a moonlight ride
We can take our time
Through the clouds we'll climb
Hurry up don't make me wait
Tomorrow might just be too late
And it all comes down to what we're feeling now
And I know what I see when I look into your eyes
I'm inside you...And you don't even know it
Deep inside you...And it's time to show it
Deep inside you
If it feels alright
We can drive all night
The wind will whisper in our ears
Collecting stars like souvenirs
And the sun will rise
Under painted skies
Tell me we don't have to wait
Tomorrow might just be too late
And it all comes down to what we're feeling now
And I know what I see when I look into your eyes
I'm inside you...And you don't even know it
Deep inside you...And it's time to show it

Thank you, thank you, for the things you said when you left
I hope you still remember them in the end
It's true, it's true, ain't nothing we can do about it
It makes no sense for us to just be friends
I know that we could never be friends in the end (In the end)
I know that we can never make sense of the end (In the end)
And you, and you, you were the one who talked about it
You were the one who kept me up late at night in the end
For you, for you I give it back cause I'm the better for it
You take what's yours, I'll take what's mine and we'll go on no regrets
In the end
I know that we could never be friends in the end (In the end)
I know that we could never make sense of the end (In the end)
I wonder what your doing, I wonder who your fooling
You were the one who kept me up late at night
With your bitching and your moaning and the phone 'cause of all of your friends
You were the one who kept me up late at night in the end
For you, for you, I give it back cause I'm the better for it
I take what's yours, you take what's mine and we'll go on no regrets
In the end
I know that we could never be friends in the end (In the end)
I know that we could never make sense of the end (In the end)
I know that we could never be friends in the end (In the end)
I know that we could never make sense of the end (In the end)
In the end
In the end
The end
The end

I couldn't think of someone that I'd rather see
I couldn't think of any place that I'd rather be
I thought I knew you once before when you cast your spell on me
Someone cut my past baby let it bleed
I tried to write you letters but it wasn't me
I tried to find your pictures out of curiosity
I thought I had it all figured out but confusion reigns supreme
Someone cut my past baby let it bleed
If memory serves me, memory's all I need
The spirit moved me once before can I find a way
Open up your door
All these things you can't ignore
The spirit moves me once again can I find a way
Stop and count to ten
All these things I can't pretend
I'm the rain in springtime you're the autumn leaves
We push our hearts to the top of the mountain then roll them down our sleeves
I thought I had you back in my arms but it turned out to be a dream
Someone cut my past baby let it bleed
If memory serves me, memory's all I need
If memory serves me, memory's all I need

if i stop and say that's it what would you do
if i lie down and quit and put and end to you
if i fall through that hole would you pick me up
if i lose my control and break your loving cup
if i fall through
if i fall through
if i love you too hard would you slow me down
if i crawl through your yard my face on the ground
if i fall through that hole mighty river below
if i lose my control would you not let go
if i fall through
if i fall through
(solo)
if i fall through
if i fall through
if i fall through

If i stop and say that's it what would you do
If i lie down and quit and put and end to you
If i fall through that hole would you pick me up
If i lose my control and break your loving cup
If i fall through
If i fall through
If i love you too hard would you slow me down
If i crawl through your yard my face on the ground
If i fall through that hole mighty river below
If i lose my control would you not let go
If i fall through
If i fall through
If i fall through
If i fall through
If i fall through

You are the one for me I don't think you know it yet
You are the one for me though we've never even met
I can tell by the way you looked at me the other night
Something tells me I'm the only
We both got somebody that don't matter anymore
'Cause everybody's playing there's no one left to keep the score
It could be a lost weekend in the mountains or at the shore
Something tells me I'm the only one around for you
In this town for you, it's coming down for you and me
I know you're trying to get by and you don't seem to care
The way you pretend not to look as your hand falls through your hair
Well I just wanted to say sorry I don't mean to stare
Something tells me I'm the only one around for you
In this town for you, it's coming down for you and me
I'm the only
I'm the only
I'm the only
I'm the only one

I'm living in the hills
My accountant pay my bills
I got a Mercedes-Benz
I hope this life never ends
And something's always happening when I show up
Man he drops a line about some bump uptown
For a disco diamond dog he met at the pound
The way she stood, I knew he would
His money is good
In Hollywood
I'm living with my man
No marriage in the plan
But like Mercedes Ruehl
He's gonna find I'm a jewel
And my boyfriend says he wants to break up
So I brought my pills and my makeup ground
Just in case I stay over or sleep on the town
The way she stood, I knew he would
The head is good
In Hollywood
And every goddamn things serves to remind me
That I'm alive but someday they're gonna find me
On the ground
I'm living on the street
I've got blisters on my feet
Could you spare some change for some food?
You ain't got to be so rude
And I've got no family to speak of
But I've got some cardboard and a tea cup
Found it in the garbage
You kick me, tell me to move up and down
The avenue, but I like the view
The sun is so good
In Hollywood
Spare a minute and listen to my story
There's fame, fortune and of course there is sex and glory
Bound for the big time houses, the rich side of town
The way he stood, I knew he would
The sun is so good

My head wouldn't give a second thought
About telling me what to do
My feet wouldn't give another inch
If they were giving it up to you
I'm on the highwire, yelling burn fire
My heart wouldn't have another chance
After all that I've been through
My hands wouldn't give enough away
I've given it all to you
I'm on the highwire, yelling burn fire
My heart is in a shroud, sun goes up and down
I've been here all afternoon
My head is in the clouds, faith goes up and down
I could use a talking to:about you, about you
Oh baby give me one more chance
My soul wouldn't give another year
I'm almost thirty-two
My eyes wouldn't give another tear
I've given them all to you
and I'm on the highwire, yelling burn fire
My heart is in a shroud, sun goes up and down
I've been sleeping way past noon
My head is in the clouds, faith goes up and down

If you're gonna jump
Hey you, hang on
If you feel like giving up
Hey you, hang on
I won't forget today
The sun is bright the sky is blue
The pain will go away
In another year or two
If you got a phone
Hey you, call home
If you got a voice
Hey you, rejoice
I won't forget today
The sun is bright the sky is blue
I won't forget to pray
Day is night the world is new
The pain will go away
In another year or two
In a hundred years or two
If you're gonna fly
Hey you, don't cry
You gotta live to die

Saw this kid get busted
Got thrown against a wall
I saw Ron and Nancy doing laps inside the mall
I seen cops and razors
Sixteen years go by
My best friend's been in institution
Seen the other side
'Cause living in this city makes me feel so helpless
We are hesitating
Coming after you
We are hesitating, baby
Trying to get through
Well every time I see you
Doin' hits inside the stall
Every time I see you
You're floating 'round inside the hall
Remember at the party
When I fell into your pool
Get you at the bus stop
Get you after school
'Cause living in this city makes me feel I have to
But we are hesitating
Coming after you
We are hesitating, baby
Trying to get through
We are hesitating
Coming after you
We are hesitating
Trying to get through
We are hesitating

You always told me that you'd
Understand if I ever found something else
That I wanted to do
You always showed me right from wrong
You always let me sing my song
That's what I wanted to do
Help me out
I'm just a little down and out
Help me out
You gotta let me scream and shout
Help me out
C'mon help me out
When I find myself alone
Living life without a home
That's where I wanted to be
If I need you in the end
Will you always be my friend
That's what I need you to be
Help me out
I'm just a little down and out
Help me out
You gotta let me scream and shout
Help me out
C'mon help me out
Help me out
I'm just a little down and out
Help me out
You gotta let me scream and shout
Help me out
C'mon help me out
C'mon help me out
Help me out
I'm just a little down and out
Help me out
You gotta let me scream and shout
Help me out
C'mon help me out
Help me out
I'm just a little down and out
Help me out
You gotta let me scream and shout
Help me out
C'mon help me out
Help me out
I'm just a little down and out
Help me out
You gotta let me scream and shout
Help me out

I've got the moon over my shoulder, I'm not a looking back
I've got the world in my headlights, and it just feels right
This stream of consciousness, no surprise
I can see when I close my eyes, tonight
I've got a Civic to my right, and he's starts talking smack
One thing I can't, ignore, is a punk like that
He's the devil I know or the devil I don't
Welcome to my dust and stones, goodbye
Hell on Wheels, free at last
When the road is your world, there's nothing like going fast
Hell on Wheels, free at last
What's left behind leaves one less thing to pass
There's a yearning and desire still burning in the back of my mind
I won't kiss away the best days of my life
Hell on wheels, free at last
When the radio fades, you'll know life's moving fast
Hell on wheels, free at last
I've got the moon over my shoulder, I'm not a looking back
I've got the world in my headlights, and it just feels right
There's a breeze that blows in through my hair
The colors in the desert air
Nothing in this world compares, tonight
Hell on wheels, free at last
When the road is your world, there's nothing like going fast
Hell on wheels, free at last

You are the one for me I don't think you know it yet
You are the one for me though we've never even met
I can tell by the way you looked at me the other night
Something tells me I'm the only
We both got somebody that don't matter anymore
'Cause everybody's playing there's no one left to keep the score
It could be a lost weekend in the mountains or at the shore
Something tells me I'm the only one around for you
In this town for you, it's coming down for you and me
I know you're trying to get by and you don't seem to care
The way you pretend not to look as your hand falls through your hair
Well I just wanted to say sorry I don't mean to stare
Something tells me I'm the only one around for you
In this town for you, it's coming down for you and me
I'm the only
I'm the only
I'm the only
I'm the only one

I'm never gonna smile
I'm never gonna stay for awhile
I'm never gonna laugh
You might as well just cut me in half
Just want to run
Just want to live til I'm done
Just want to be
As happy as I'm gonna be
And there's nothing on the inside
I'm not high on life I'm not drunk on love
I'm broken down not feeling right
I'm happy as I'm gonna be
When there's nothing on the inside
I'm not high on life I'm not drunk on love
Not feeling right
I'm never gonna find
The thing I need to make up my mind
I'm never gonna stand
Next to you I do what I can
Just want to run
Just want to lie in the sun
Just want to be
As happy as I'm gonna be
And there's nothing on the inside
I'm not high on life I'm not drunk on love
I'm broken down not feeling right
I'm happy as I'm gonna be
When there's nothing on the inside
I'm not high on life I'm not drunk on love
Not feeling right
I'm never gonna write
Lay with you or whisper goodnight
I'm never gonna call
That way I'll have nothing at all
Just want to run
Just want to live til I'm done

My sometimes lady
Call her sexy Sadie when she comes around
She dances for me
I spend my twenty when I roll through town
I think I'll be leaving
There's no one here I have not been
There's no more believing
I'm only saved 'cause I'm tired of sin
And every day when the sun goes down
Every way when her walls come down
My baby dances at the Gypsy Lounge
This drunked-up trucker
He tried to luck here into going down town
Smashed his kneecap
House's ball bat a fifth of Crown
I think I'll be leaving
There's nothing here I have not seen
There's no more believing
That nothing comes like in between
And every day when the sun goes down
Every way when her walls come down
