Lazy Bones
02:07
|

It's time to wake up lazy bones
Come on and leave your world of monochrome
It's time to keep up with the Jones'
You're warm and fetal, safe at home
Why work your fingers to the bone

Slab City

Rain bringing us no relief
A change gonna come in our time of need
Take me there
To a land
With caravans
covered in sand
Round goes the sound of the spinning wheels
I'm going out to Slab City where the air is free
No clouds or crowds or opportunity
I'm going out to Slab City that's the life for me
Rays baking my memories
Days from here to eternity
Write a note
Send my regards
In no-man's land
The future is ours
Round goes the sound of the spinning wheels
I'm going out to Slab City where the air is free
No clouds or crowds or opportunity
I'm going out to Slab City that's the life for me
Round goes the sound of the spinning wheels
I'm going out to Slab City where the air is free
No clouds or crowds or opportunity
In the land that time forgot, Slab City

The Day The Radio Died
03:45
|
|||
Driving Friday night
Grandma saw it first
first we lost the headlights
Then we lost reverse
It came out of the sky
Clouds began to burst
When we lost the music
Things had gone from bad to worse
nah nah nah nah
It came from the sky
The day the radio died
What did they believe in
What'd they hope to find
Where were they going
How many empty miles behind
They just kept going
Since the day they came
We thought we'd change forever
But our lives remained the same
nah nah nah nah
It came from the sky
The day the radio died

A Brighter Day
04:19
|

Who's that knocking on the front door
Got us creeping on the floor
Like the time before
All the bills and commotions
Driving us insane
But time's in motion
So we'll just wait...
For a brighter day
To chase the clouds away
Keeps us going round and around and around
We say
nah nah nah
You're a stranger in your own head
Can't remember what was said
You used to be well read
All the pills and the potions
Get us through the day
Like little notions
For those who pray
For a brighter day
To take the pain away
Keeps us going round and around and around
We say
nah nah nah
Are we divine or resigned
On a beautiful decline
If you see the light
It's not a sign
It's just a brighter day
Keeps us going round and around and around
We say
nah nah nah

Home Wrecker

My my ha hallelujah
Good god Homewrecker be mine
Mi-mine ha hallelujah
Won't you take me Homewrecker
Got one crutch, one cigarette
two fuzzy slippers and a wife
This is what we get for our labors
Kids are crying at our feet
Another punch-up in the street
It's a matinee for the neighbors
But here she comes to save the day
My my ha hallelujah
Good god Homewrecker be mine
Mi-mine ha hallelujah
Won't you take me Homewrecker
They say that beggars can't be choosers
Is that for sinners or for losers
'Cause this girl's got roller derby knees
So many fools go to school
And they just can't find the answer
But American Gothic in a tube top's got it
My my ha hallelujah
Good god Homewrecker be mine
Mi-mine ha hallelujah
Won't you take me Homewrecker
Take me far from circumstances

My my my what a beautiful dream
Let's head out west and take all we see
Well we look pretty good, don't have much to say
On the open road it's better that way
My my my what a beautiful dream
All the miles keep on speeding
Leave it all behind
Everybody's off the deep end
Well maybe it's about time
By by and by this is the way
A time tested cure that drives the blues away
It's manifest, It's destiny
Just another moving target in the land of the free
By by and by this is the way
All the miles keep on speeding
Leave it all behind
Everybody's off the deep end
Well maybe it's about time
Well come tomorrow
There 'll be no more sorrow
Where the people graze and the animals pray
for….

In The Sun
03:42

Hello my dear friend
We won't meet again
But sometimes in my mind I can find…
you haven't changed
It seems strange
I still see you when you shine
In the Sun
With everyone
In the sun
Memories slowly fade away
Hello my dear friend
Do you remember when
We thought we had it made…
In the shade I
Write a song
That says so long
And I'll see you when you shine
In the sun
With everyone
In the sun
Memories slowly fade away
We'll see
You in the sun
We'll see you

We've Arrived
03:06
|
|||
I've got a feeling maybe I was born with two left feet and no rights
So disengage the brain and hit the passing lane, put reality out of sight
We just drive
No where to go
I think that we've arrived
She looked at me and said shut up and drive
You say you want a revolution maybe dreams really do come true
We're spinning round and round and round round nothing we'd rather do
except…
Drive
No where to go
I think that we've arrived
She looked at me and said shut up and drive
In the land of the free and the brave
Everything is alright
'thing is alright
One foot on the gas and one on the brake
Well I think it's my right
Think it's my right
We just drive
No where to go
I think that we've arrived
She looked at me and said shut up and drive

Too Big To Fail
03:54
|
|||
Liars, thieves and other lovers
You drive a bargain
Desires, needs and a mother's cover
Is all we've ever gotten
All the good times trickle down and out
We've been forgotten now
Get ready
Hold steady
Stand up now
We're too big to fail
In the morning
In the evening
Get up up now
We're too big to fail
(anything you have to do
to make your little dreams come true)
Oh good fortune be our guiding star
We've lost our way
We were riding but now we'll drive
So start the getaway car
Get ready
Hold steady
Stand up now
We're too big to fail
In the morning
In the evening
Get up up now
We're too big to fail
Set us free
With do re mi
Stand up now
We're too big to fail

Living The Dream
02:52
|

Hey, I've got it good
It's understood
This is the good life
Without a doubt
My ship's come in
The tide's gone out
I'm living the dream
Living and dreaming
All that I see
It's been quite a ride
My way's been paved
With miles of smiles
Every day
I'm living the dream
Living and dreaming
All that I see

Sandy Meadows
03:43

Back home where the days
and the folks all look the same
There's a girl
There's a girl
She was cornfed and vain
A pagan goddess of the plains
She had the world
She had the world
Life was good on Sandy Meadows
Take me back there when the wind blows
Plant a dream on sandy meadows
And lay your head down where the weeds grow
She'd always love 'em and leave 'em
and love 'em again
In a whirl
In a whirl
But we were free enough to laugh and to dance and to cry
At the same time
At the same time
Life was good on Sandy Meadows
Take me back there when the wind blows
Plant a dream on sandy meadows
And lay your head down where the weeds grow
Life was good on Sandy Meadows
Take me back there when the wind blows
Plant a dream on sandy meadows
And lay your head down where the weeds grow
Life was good on sandy meadows
Take me back there
Sandy Meadows in my mind

Far Away From Here
05:20
|
|||
One strange day I realized
I'm Far away from here
Far away from now
Safely away from all that I feel
So far away from here
Far away from now
Sail above atmosphere a million miles away from all who care
People places, things and time and everything between lost in the glare
Somewhere in a memory
All that I see is not very clear
Far away from here
Far away from now
Got a new view but nothing has changed
Far away from here
Far away from now
Sail above atmosphere a million miles away from all who care
People places, things and time and everything between lost in the glare
Somewhere in a memory
One strange day I might head back home
It's far away from here
Far away from now
