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 04:34
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

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

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 02:51
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

Stampede 03:40
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

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

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

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

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

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
