Another unknown
That’s coming down
I swear that she could
See right through me
She’s dressed up for a Sunday
But, this ain’t no Sunday
Leavin’ Day
The unknown won’t feel the same
Another angel
Standing in the hall
There’s nothing that I can do for you now
I'll take you with me everywhere I go
Leavin’ Day
The unknown won’t feel the same
Leavin’ Day
The unknown won’t feel the same
Leavin’ Day
The unknown won’t feel the same
Leavin’ Day
The unknown won’t feel the same

Mud flies through the sky with abandon
The latest kerfuffle is anything but cordial
We have a lifetime to kick the dead horse
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
Together?
You were sent for a reason
So don’t smile
We have a lifetime to talk past each other
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
Together?
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
Together?
We’ve got the best that money can buy
We have a lifetime to drop dead
So, don’t fret
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
Together?
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
But, in the mean time
Can we get it together?
Together?

coyote
04:08
|
|||
I can’t seem to find what I’m after
Sparking lights disappear
I can’t seem to follow the footsteps
Coyote leading me here
Taking the candle of thought from the altar
Pulls it in close to her chest
Glows in the starlight
And burns through the night
She’s brighter than all the rest
She’s brighter than all the rest
If I run
Will it tear me to pieces?
Stick to me like a disease?
If I don’t take the chance
Will the coyotes dance around
All that I used to be?
Taking the candle of thought from the altar
Pulls it in close to her chest
Glows in the starlight
And burns through the night
She’s brighter than all the rest
She’s brighter than all the rest
Taking the candle of thought from the altar
Pulls it in close to her chest
Glows in the starlight
And burns through the night
She’s brighter than all the rest
She’s brighter than all the rest
I can’t seem to find what I’m after
Sparking lights disappear
Glows in the starlight
And burns through the night
She’s brighter than all of the rest

Where it stops

sunday morning coffee

Sunday morning coffee
Is the best time of the week for me
To sit around in boxers while the world is still asleep
I know that some folks read the paper, boy
But, I can’t bear the news
I’d rather sleep until it’s one or two
Than miss that muddy brew of
Sunday morning coffee
Sunday morning coffee
Whole bean, ground or instant
Satisfaction by the pile
I have this stupid little grin on me
When I’m in the coffee aisle
My tongue has much less friction
When the mud flows through my diction
And, it’s hard to get the words out
When the caffeine’s in the kitchen
Sunday morning coffee
Sunday morning coffee
It’s Sunday afternoon
I haven’t done a single thing
My head is throbbing from the java
And the eighteen danish rings
Just can’t find my concentration
‘Cause Juan Valdez is making us another cup of
French Vanilla to feed my endless craving for
Sunday morning coffee
Sunday morning coffee
Sunday morning coffee
Sunday morning coffee

Did you think they’d make it easy?
Wake up girl

Wake up girl
You don’t need me to remind you
What you survive
Take this time to realize
The world beyond
Took it’s best shot
But, it made you stronger than ever
Yeah

bad luck
02:27
|

Kiss the rabbit’s foot
And I toss the salt off my shoulder
I keep a keen eye out for the harbinger, but
I got bad luck
bad luck
I got bad luck
bad luck
If it wasn’t for bad luck
I wouldn’t have any luck at all
Kiss the Blarney Stone
And I court the ladybug
I keep a keen eye out for the harbinger, but
I got bad luck
bad luck
I got bad luck
bad luck
If it wasn’t for bad luck
I wouldn’t have any luck at all
If it wasn’t for bad luck
I wouldn’t have any luck at all
“C’mon guys, really?”
“Oh no, bad luck jazz solo”
“Seriously?”
“What is this, Spinal Tap?”
“Oh my God, that show was aweful”
Kiss my lucky stars
And I do the lucky shake
I keep a keen eye out for the harbinger, but
I got bad luck
bad luck
I got bad luck
bad luck
If it wasn’t for bad luck
I wouldn’t have any luck at all
If it wasn’t for bad luck
I wouldn’t have any luck at all
If it wasn’t for bad luck
I wouldn’t have any luck at all

skyline
03:55
|

The wheel is spinning
But, never going anywhere
And, the skyline, it climbs
But, livin’ in the shadows
Yeah, I’m taking my time
This life’s mine
And I’m shinin’…shine, shine
Yeah, I’m taking my time
This light’s mine
And I’m shinin’…shine, shine
Together, we stand
But, divided, I’m a little higher
Don’t look down or
you could lose your balance
Yeah,
I’m taking my time
This life’s mine
And I’m shinin’…shine, shine
Yeah, I’m taking my time
This light’s mine
And I’m shinin’…shine, shine
Can you live with less than
“All you ever wanted?”
Can you live with more than
“What I've got?”
Yeah, I’m taking my time
This life’s mine
And I’m shinin’…shine, shine
Yeah, I’m taking my time
This light’s mine
And I’m shinin’…shine, shine

saboteur
02:33
|
|||
Are "we the people"?
Or what used to be?
A murder of cronies
Picking through the bones
Of our Lady of patinaed Liberty
An American star-mangled travesty
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore
Anymore
Follow the money
Follow the money and she'll
Lead you to the saboteur
The greatest degeneration
In the history of
The freedom nation
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore
Anymore
Are "we the people"?
Or what used to be?
A murder of cronies
Picking through the bones
Of our Lady of patinaed Liberty
An American star-mangled travesty
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know

Mud and sky
High above the eastern crush I knew
This must be it
It calls your name
Comforting a weary soul in need
You just don’t know
You got a fire
Fire in your heart
You got a fire
Fire in your heart
Mud and sky
Turquoise trails that lead to secret lands
This must be it
It calls your name
Comforting a weary soul in need
You just don’t know
You got a fire
Fire in your heart
You got a fire
Fire in your heart
Mud and sky
High above the eastern crush I knew
This must be it
Mud and sky
Turquoise trails that lead to secret lands
This must be it
You got a fire
Fire in your heart
You got a fire
Fire in your heart
You got a fire
