- Bats In The Belfry
old man river said
you can go your own way
if you just leave him alone
do not deliver all your things today
we are going home
oh mama we now so hungary
[CHORUS:]
- Circles Around he Sun
When he was born, the doc said “What’s this?”
He’s much too small, it’s like he’s weightless.
When he turned six, they ran some tests.
They said, "It's for science, it's patriotic."
"Ah let’s send him where no one else has gone.
And after all he cannot speak or walk
Let’s send him at the moon, do circles round the Sun."
- Circles Around the Sun
When he was born, the doc said Whats this?
Hes much too small, its like hes weightless
When he turned six, they answered tests
They searched science, hes patriotic
Ah lets send him where no one else has gone
And after all he can not speak or walk
Lets send him out to moon, do circles round the Sun
When he was twelve, the time had come then
- Flying Horses
The river of doubt gave birth to a beautiful stone
And in my hands I held it and I knew I was on my own
So I picked it up and held it to the sky
And in my reflection. I knew I was all alone
Then I saw this girl with the most beautiful hair
She had it wrapped around her for clothes she did not wear
I asked her for a lock and she complied, after leaving
Gorgeous footsteps in the sand as if she didn't care
- Headlights
headlights
highways
your life collides with mine (x2)
leavin' our shoes behind
we cross the water
our words flow
from mouth to mouth
- Here We Go
here we go
leave it on the back burner
take it to the dry town
I got the mean time slippin' down
the slide some uptight right wing,
political homicide, do what you
want, take what you will, take it in
- Only the Wild Ones
Long hair and longer stride
And your cut off painter pants
Chargin down the craggy mountains with our thrift store friends
Who you find so... so in love with the falling earth
Oh you wake in the middle of the falling night with summer playing coy
In the attics of the city night
We talked corso and the MC5
You could dance like
- Open Up
They were looking for me when I came to
They were looking for me when I came back
Said hey you, you're looking, very suspicious
I said relax man, get off my back
I said relax man, get off my back.
Now I, I, I ain't opposed to seeking justice
- Out Loud
Would you be the wind to blow me home
Would you be a dream
On the wings of a poem
And if we were walking through a crowd
Well you know I'd be proud
[Chorus:]
If you call my name out loud
- Railway
so all of a sudden I'm facing a
raging river that passed me by
do I turn around, do I turn my eye
to the sun in the apex of the high noon
I'm on a flatbed yellow pick up
underneath a half moon
so cut me some slack jack and jump in
- The General
There was a decorated General with a heart of gold
That likened him to all the stories he told
Of past battles won and lost and legends of old
A seasoned veteran in his own time
On the battlefield he gained respect for fame
With many metals of bravery and stripes to his name
He grew a beard as soon as he could to cover the scars on his face
And always urged his men on
- Two Coins
I stick loneliness, you lips
and the two coins of your eyes
into my pickets
well the train skates into
Port Henry late sunday
sometimes when I'm riding high
feeling fine you know there's something
- Valentine
It's a fadin' blue
Into the black
The news is goin' down
Into the dirt
Crushin' the white stones
The sun expires
The wind is zipped up
Hide the fire
