- 21 - Open Invitation
Gin no aikagi sotto watasu wa
(I gently show a key made of silver)
anata hitori no shoutaijou yo
(it's invintation only for you)
I try to keep it
My little secret
yakusoku wa kyou
(The invintation is for today,)
- Animal Past
Paint me on the walls of Pompeii
With my eyes open wide
Paint me on the walls of Pompeii
With my mouth forever shut
I never had much to say
Now I can finally shut up
Paint me in the caves of Lascaux
Where the walls curve over head
- Lost Dog
Just when it matteredbefore you had a name
You said hey come with me
Let's go walk across the bridge
It's easy to seeYou're not even fooling me
With your face like a cardboard box there's a stray cat inside
We could walk the seven milesto the boardwalk from Sunset ParkTake the bus back to the city
Fall asleep and miss our stop
It's easy to seeYou're not even fooling me
- Love Triangle
It's not quite 9 in the morning
I'm on the bus going the wrong way
Everyone is starting their day
Me I've got my bra in my pocket
Me, you, and that empty bottle
It's just another love triangle
Make it home, sleep til Wednesday
Look outside, another bright day
- Move to LA
I could move back home again
They say it's where I belong
I can picture all the streets I knew
The buildings and their lights at night
But I wouldn't last long
I could move down to LA
And make my case for depravity
I'd be all alone again
- My Friend
Oh you're strange sometimes
You make me nervouslike you're a rich girl who's crying
But oh it's hard on me because what you are is what every song should be
And I'll try not to believe my very own eyes
Oh the things you sayany other girl she would get carried away
But oh I hear your voice my friend it's like my favorite song it fades out at the end
And I'll try not to believe my very own mind
Oh I'm strange sometimes you make me nervous as though you could read my mind
- Song 36
I try to take the long view from up here on the lost roofand a song keeps me in time
Saw an ad in the classifieds for the lost art between you and Ibut I know I'm not qualified
But hey you know mehand me one corner and I'll find the other three
What if I could get it rightcross the t's and dot the i's?
Oh heaven it belongs to the satisfied
If I sing the verse once more it's less true than it was before but now I know the words by heart
And some things just have to be
There's no stopping that train from Kansas City
- Yours Alone
Just when I thought I'd be just fine alone
Stopped waiting by the phone
I'd be alright
That's when I saw you standing near to me
As if you would be
There all night
Just when I thought
I need no one to be
