I know so many people
Who think they can do it alone They isolate their heads And stay in the safety zone But what can you tell them? What can you say that won't make them defensive? So... Hang on to your ego Hang on, but I know that you're gonna lose the fight They come on like they're peaceful But inside they're so uptight They trip through the day And waste all their thoughts at night But how can I say it? How can I come on when I know I'm guilty? So... Hang on to your ego Hang on, but I know that you're gonna lose the fight And how can I say it? How can I come on when I know I'm guilty? Hang on to your ego Hang on, but I know that you're gonna lose the fight Hang on to your ego Hang on, but I know that you're gonna lose the fight Hang on to your ego Hang on, but I know that you're gonna lose the fight |

Beyond below above
A gravity that slumbers At the center of Places named after numbers A different kind of love She was right She was right there She was right there all the time Collapsing all the way And though it seems from here That she was never there Light beams disappear Into her blackened hair I wonder if they reappear She was right She was right there She was right there all the time Collapsing all the way |

Time
If he could travel time He would have been on time Instead of making rhyme He didn't need a band He was a mountain man Oil The national turmoil They hide it in the soil A singer and his spoil Just singing thanks I've got my own gas tanks And there's no time for the man Who has sung his bars And there's no time And there's no time for the man called Czar Blue Extraodinary blue Ten million porthole views They're saying on the news The Russians just said "No. You can't go." And there's no time for the man Who has sung his bars And there's no time And there's no time for the man called Czar |

This gravity
Is feeling like a tether I want to want to be So high above the weather All frequency around Round, round, round, round Without a sound And there's today And there's two spaces And too many places Not to go to, ooh This big old sea Is feeling like a pleasure I look cautiously At all the falling treasure With some frequency it comes down Down, down, down, down Without a sound And there's today And there's two spaces And too many places Not to go to, ooh |

And if a ship meets your car
You know you can't go real far Well they could treat you real nice Or put a tracking device Way down inside I'm checking out inventions at the UFO convention tonight Planes above the Hilton make it sunny Brought my money tonight Blue blond ladies of abduction strumming guitars of instruction tonight A lot of wannabe truckers Making eyes with starfuckers tonight I've got my hands on some sights Electric glasses with lights They got me feeling deluxe For just a couple of bucks Way down inside I'm getting patterns from a trekker And it sounds like soul records to me They're waving hi from some gazebo Waving on to Arecibo to me I'm getting patterns from a trekker And it sounds like soul records to me I'm getting patterns from a trekker And it sounds like Desmond Dekker to me Sleep machine In your silo Transmarine Things you've never seen Parry the wind high, low |

Every time I go around here
I see tumbles Gone is the regal automobile And ever since I'm down Im down We used to ride in it In this frozen town Any time we had in the time we had We found We found In some frozen place Parked half off the ground Every time I go around here I see tumbles Through my head and the glass cleared And the motor rumbled I don't know if it's good that they did make the wheel But ever since I know I know Ive been rolling on Rolling on to you Any time we have in the time we have Well go We go To that frozen place Frozen place that we knew Every time I go around here I see tumbles Through my head and the glass cleared And the motor rumbled |
