from Chicken Little [ost] (2008)
It was a recipe for disaster
A four course meal of no siree It seemed that happily ever after Was happy everyone was after me It was a cup of good intentions A tablespoon of one big mess A dash of over reaction I assume you know the rest One little slip, One little slip It was a fusion of confusion With a few confounding things I guess I probably took the wrong direction Well I admit I might have missed a sign or two I ran a light past your affection At Humiliation Avenue Took a right turn at confusion A left when I shoulda gone straight on through I ran ahead with my assumptions We all know what that can do One little slip, One little slip It was a fusion of confusion With a few confounding things I get the feeling in this town I'll never live till I live down the one mistake that seems to follow me around But they'll forget about the sky When they all realize guy's about to try to learn to fly or hit the ground It was a cup of good intentions A tablespoon of one big mess A dash of over reaction I assume you know the rest One little slip, One little slip It was a humble little stumble With a big ungraceful… One little slip, One little slip It was a fusion of confusion With a few confounding things |

There's a word for that
But I don't seem to know it Sometimes I grow a moustache just so I don't have to show it The word for that That someone,somewhere chose For that little dented skin between my upper lip and nose (philtrum) There's a word for that What does it start with? A word for that I'd sound so smart if I only knew The word for that Perhaps you do? There's a word for that It may come to me soon It dangles down in my mouth, and it's often in cartoons The word for that It seems like such a drag To not know what to call that little fleshy punching bag (uvula) There's a word for that What does it start with? A word for that I'd sound so smart if I only knew The word for that Perhaps you do? There's a word for that It's on the tip of my tongue Well actually underneath it, and has been since I was young The word for that Although I won't quote It likely stops my tongue from disappearing down my throat (frenulum) There's a word for that What does it start with? A word for that I'd sound so smart if I only knew The word for that Perhaps you do? What does it start with? A word for that I'd sound so smart if I only knew The word for that Perhaps you do? |

There's nothing you can do or say To help me through this bad day I think I'll just stay in my room They didn't need to say That they didn't want to play I could have guessed it anyway And that's why I'm here in my room Seems like I'm the only one Who's not outside having fun I wish this day had never begun I think I'll stay in my room Sometimes I want to run and hide Today I want to stay inside Tell my bike to take itself for a ride I'm staying in today See the toys lying on the floor I don't want them anymore Think I'll sell them back to the store Or give them all away Seems like I'm the only one Who's not outside and having fun I wish this day had never begun I think I'll just stay in my room I don't need hugs and I don't want food I want to stay here in this lonely mood I don't care if people think I'm rude I wish they would all go away Dad come in and tells me with a kiss That everyone has days like this He brought my dinner, said that I was missed I think I'll be okay I know I'm not the only one To stay inside and watch the fun Thanks a lot, that helped a ton Tomorrow's going to be a better day |

Hey Steve!
Hey Ed, that sounds nice, what is it? Thank you, it's an alphabet song I'm working on Oh great, a whole new alphabet, I just learned the old one. A is for aisle B is for bdelliums C is for czar And if you see him, would you mind telling him- Okay, hang on a second, yeah aisle? Yeah, aisle like a, like a theatre. Alright, okay, and bdelliums? Bdelliums, it's a gum like tree resin, it starts with a silent "B" And then czar? Yeah, it's uh- like a Russian czar. You know, everyone knows apple ball and cat, I wanted to get into some you know, some stranger words. Right, I see what you're doing. D is for djinn E for Euphrates F is for fohn, but not like when I call the ladies I thought phone started with a "P?" ... like a "Ph" No its f-o-h-n, it's a kind of wind Yeah, I know what you mean by wind G for Gnarly, I for irk H is for hour J for jalapenos Good in either corn or flour (tortillas) Nice rhyme K is for knick-knack L is for llama Pramma, llama, ding - what's so strange about llama? Llama, its starts with two L's What's the second one for? No idea. I know, loser. M for mnemonic N is for Ndombolo O is for ouija board P for pneumonia pterodactyl and psychosis Q is for qat Okay, Q - qat? What? Yeah it's uh...q-a-t, It's an evergreen shrub It's a perfect scrabble word because it's a q with no u, There's not many of those You have too much time on your hands. R is for R-gyle No, it isn't Okay, you're right; I couldn't find a good "R?" word S is for Saar, a lovely German river T for tsunami, a wave that makes me quiver U is for urn, but not like earning money V for vraisemblance from French, And therefore kind of funny W for wren, wrinkly, and who. X is for Xian, an ancient Chinese city, true! Ancient Chinese city, huh? My guitar player, some hotshot. Y is for yperite, a very nasty gas. And zed's the final letter And by final, I mean last. Okay, when you say zed, For the benefit of our American friends You really mean Z, right? No I mean Zed, like, like Zed Zed Top. Zed Zed Top? Yeah, you know the guys with the big long beards Well, except the guy whose name is Beard, He has a mustache I always thought that was interesting You done with the alphabet? No extra letters I haven't heard of? I think so. Well this was a great help, I think, you know, The contribution you made to world literacy Well, I'm just saying, kids I'm just saying Think outside the box a little bit Box with an "R" Yeah, well, no, box with a b-a-l-k-s, like a pitcher. Ahh, as opposed to b-a-c-h-s, Right, think outside the box Get into some Rachmaninow That's Rachmaninoff with a "W" |

If I climb a tree just to see what I see
Does that make me curious? If I make a point of just cruising a joint Would that make me curious? And if if's profound this just lookin' around Well then gee whiz Don't call me crazy Never been lazy Curious it is A touch of excess with a little finesse I simply luxurious And if I confess to makin' this mess Would that make you furious But after a while you'll be crackin' a smile And that's when we'll see If I may submit you'll have to admit You're curious like me They say that curiosity was responsible For the unfortunate demise of the cat But with 8 more lives to investigate What kind of a deal is that? Not Bad A furious sun can make for serious fun So we wont let that worry us Cause the fun is outdone by a barrel of one If that one's the furriest If curious mean that you trade your routines For something free The freedom you feel's the whole point of the deal so Curious I'll be Curiouser, and curiouser Sir Curious Curious like Curious like me |

Look up in the sky, they said on the radio station.
They're up quite high, flying in a V formation. Here come the geese! Here come the geese! Now they're on lawns, the patios and ponds, on the sidewalks on the rooftops, on the hillside, on the playground slide, in the shadows, the parking lots, the meadows, the fences and ledges, benches and hedges,in the schoolyard, on the boulevard, in the high school halls, in the shopping malls. Watch under your feet,they said on the radio station. Here come the geese! Flying in a V formation. |

I'm gonna plant this seed, this little tiny seed,
and it is gonna grow into a giant tree. A gigantic tree. A ginormous tree. A humungous tree for all the world to see. You've gotta love the trees, they even help us breathe. They give us oxygen. They give us scenery. When I see a healthy trunk it makes me want to jump. But I feel the opposite when I see a stump. Help me plant this seed, this little tiny seed. And let us watch it grow into a giant tree. One gigantic tree here for you and me. For our children's children's children's children's children to see. |

I can eat pork 'til the cows come come
And cheese like it's going out of style I like just about every type of vegetable I like raisins, and nuts, and seeds, and olives, And pickles, and fruit, and beef, and bread, But I don't like... salmon. I've jumped from a plane with a parachute Scuba'd to the ocean floor Driven super fast in a racing car I've bungee jumped, and zip lined too, I've crossed rope bridges over raging rivers But I don't like... those spinny rides I can fly my very own aeroplane And I've been to the top of mountains I've been to the top of mountains I've been to the top of the CN Tower I can work on a ladder, I can climb a tree I can look out the window of a really tall building But if I stand close to the edge of a railing, or up on a roof or something I realize I don't like... heights so much |

In a puddle by the trail
Flips its tiny tail Just like a great big whale But smaller than a snail It´s a pollywog in a bog Swims under soggy logs One day he'll be a frog Pollywog in a bog Overhead a cedar tree Gives the shade he needs Munching while he feeds On lily pads and weeds Knows not where he's from Or how his life had begun He's not the only one And soon he'll breathe through lungs It´s hard to believe With the arms you´ll receive you´ll lift your head Above the water and breathe Gills shrink away And may there come a day When you reach the shore With a whole world to explore Ribbit, ribbit, a tadpole exhibit it´s a transformation no one can inhibit Amphibian change may seem strange Take them gills and the tail and they all rearrange Out come the legs for the jump, jump Hope to the top of the stump, stump Out come the legs for the jump, jump Hope to the top of the stump, stump Where the mud is deep Frost will soon creep And without a peep A frog is fast asleep It was a pollywog in a bog Swam under soggy logs In the morning fog Pollywog in a bog Pollywog in a bog Swam under soggy logs In the morning fog Pollywog in a bog Pollywog in a bog Swam under soggy logs In the morning fog |

Something was strange in the air I woke up this morning and everything was different I knew that the ninjas had been there I looked all around my bedroom, underneath the dresser Behind the bed, but nothing could be found There was nothing left behind them, nowhere that I could find them No fingerprints or crumbs on the ground The ninjas are deadly and silent They're also unspeakably violent They speak Japanese, they do whatever they please And sometimes they vacation in Ireland The ninjas are deadly and silent They're also unspeakably violent They speak Japanese, they do whatever they please And if you tear off their masks they'll be smiling |

But there is an incompleteness The days are beautiful But I feel a bitter sweetness If I had a wish, or even a choice, I'd wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice I let you down And fell right off your good list I hope each day you'll find peace And forgiveness The alarm clock rings What a lonely noise And I long for the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to see In this void The saying goes There will be other dances This little song is about Second chances Just say the word And I will rejoice And wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up To the sound To the sound To the sound To the sound Waking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to see In this void |

Our whole universe was in a hot dense state
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started. Wait… The Earth began to cool, The autotrophs began to drool, Neanderthals developed tools, We built a wall (we built the pyramids), Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries, That all started with the big bang! “Since the dawn of man” is really not that long, As every galaxy was formed in less time than it takes to sing this song. A fraction of a second and the elements were made. The bipeds stood up straight, The dinosaurs all met their fate, They tried to leap but they were late And they all died (they froze their asses off) The oceans and pangea See ya, wouldn’t wanna be ya Set in motion by the same big bang! It all started with the big BANG! It’s expanding ever outward but one day It will cause the stars to go the other way, Collapsing ever inward, we won’t be here, it wont be hurt Our best and brightest figure that it’ll make an even bigger bang! Australopithecus would really have been sick of us Debating out while here they’re catching deer (we’re catching viruses) Religion or astronomy, Encarta, Deuteronomy It all started with the big bang! Music and mythology, Einstein and astrology It all started with the big bang! It all started with the big BANG! |

Alternative Girlfriend
You're in an all-girl band Your futon's second hand Your parents understand but you don't care I have a job in a shop I'm an undercover cop I make sure the customers aren't thieves Old at being young Young at being old Everything's on hold within our evolution Chorus: You're my alternative girlfriend I love you, and now you cannot pretend There's nothing left that won't cross over Last night we slept on the lawn you woke up and I was gone Back to the dream I dream to leave My life with her is a bore A worn-out metaphor No more surprises up its sleeve We're old at being young Young at being old Everything's been sold to other's revolutions Chorus You live above your dad's four-car garage With your vinyl and imaginary entourage if I pull up in a U-Haul, pack up quick So we can get out of this town 'cause it makes me sick Chorus |

That's the problem, dear, with angry people
They try to go it alone Digging in and making cranky feeble pleas That other angries disown Angry people think a good solution Is getting others involved So they surround themselves with happy people And watch their smiles dissolve We just drag them down We just drag them down We just drag them down Until they're just like us Angry people get so sanctimonious Telling us what to do Hoping no one outs them all as phonies just cause We are all phonies too And those of us who once had wives and families Understand what I mean What was once a calm and peaceful refuge Is overtaken by spleen 'Cause we just drag them down We just drag them down We just drag them down Until they're just like us I am the singer in the band We're only trying to lend a hand And though it's not what we had planned We understand That we just drag you down We just drag you down We just drag you down Until you're just like us In a square a thousand angry people Are waving signs in the air (HEY!) While a million other happy people Are trying hard not to care (BACK OFF!) You see, the happy people's biggest problem Is they're never fearing the worst While the rest of us will never sleep until Your happy bubbles are burst Yeah, we just drag them down Didn't I just drag you down Just watch me drag you down Until you're just like us Until you're just like us Oh, until you're just like us Until you're just like us |

You left Billy with the kid And all the selfless things you did with Billy You left your home town in the spring And turned your back on everything You thought your life would just go by Without a pause to wonder, don't be silly But you can't live your life in the baby seat You've got to stand on your own Don't admit defeat He came down from his retreat She saw him later on the street He said "You are the only one to recognize that I'm the son" So she bent down and kissed his feet And then that night, between the sheets she told him You can't live your life in the baby seat You've got to stand on your own Don't admit defeat You can't live your life in the baby seat You've got to stand on your own Don't admit defeat 40 days at sea Then she turned and said to me "If we make it back I'll renounce Jack Kerouac And all that romantic crap Like I'm an artist don't look back" Now we're living somewhere else We keep opinions to ourselves But still we seek a sneaky peek at heaven When the working week defeats us If you think growing up is tough Then you've just not grown enough, baby You can't live your life in the baby seat You've got to stand on your own Don't admit defeat You can't live your life in the baby seat You've got to stand on your own Don't admit defeat |

Drove downtown in the rain nine-thirty on a tuesday night, just to check out the late-night record shop. Call it impulsive call it compulsive, call it insane; but when I'm surrounded I just can't stop. It's a matter of instinct it's a matter of conditioning it's a matter of fact. Tou can call me Pavlov's dog, ring a bell and I'll salivate - how'd you like that? Dr. Landy tell me you're not just a pedagogue 'cause right now I'm Chorus: Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did Well I am lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did. So I'm lying here just staring at the ceiling tiles, and I'm thinking about oh what to think about. Just listening and relistening to Smiley Smile, and wondering if this is some kind of creative drought because I'm Chorus And if you want to find me I'll be out in the sandbox, wondering where the hell all the love has gone, Playing my guitar and building castles in the sun and singing "Fun, Fun, Fun" Chorus I had a dream that I was three hundred pounds and though I was very heavy I floated 'til I couldn't see the ground I floated 'til I couldn't see the ground Somebody help me, I couldn't see the ground Somebody help me because I'm Chorus Drove downtown in the rain nine-thirty on a tuesday night, just to check out the late-night record shop. Call it impulsive you can call it compulsive, you can call it insane; but when I'm surrounded I just can't stop. |

Some people are just all show
Well, I don't mind that if the show is worth watching But it's all bark and no tree What's more ironic than a hippie in Versace? It's all peace and love and limousines You got the right message, but the wrong intentions How can you be touchy-feely when you've lost touch? I think it's time we had a little intervention with you Hey now, wake up And lose the makeup She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth (via satellite) There's no better friends than the, the kind you pay If they don't balance, great - then the door will keep revolving It's a tight circle of the chosen few Well, how'd you manage that with the recipe involving Just a pinch of sweetness and a cup of angst? Mix it all up - you're the all-purpose flour Though it looks delicious, something smells bad I don't think I'd last a half an hour with you Hey now, wake up And lose the makeup She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth (via satellite) What's it like to love you When there's no one else above you And no one gets to know you? Well, who'll be there to show you (via satellite)? It's like making love to a TV It's kinda novel, but it's miles away from satisfying Your hangers-on say it's a great deal But what you're selling, there's no chance in hell that I'll be buying Hey now, wake up And lose the makeup She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth (via satellite) |

What's a boy to do?
When you tell your tale And it never fails I just end up feeling bad for you. With your hang-dog eyes You can bring me down Now I'm wrapped around your whole hand Stop looking so surprised. You make it easy (Easy) Make it easy (Easy) I've been burned before You're not fooling me There's no mystery You've forgotten what you're hiding for. Call it self defense You can obfuscate And manipulate But it's only at your own expense. You make it easy (Easy) Make it easy (Easy) Make it easy (Easy) Make it easy (Easy) Easy to be with you Easy to obey Easy to forgive you at the end of the day Easy now to judge you Easy to betray Easy to adore you though you want to run away. It's easy Look what you have done I can do the same Two can play this game You'll no longer be the only one. You make it easy (Easy) Make it easy (Easy) Make it easy (Easy) Easy (Easy) |

"The silence, the terror, the pain, the horror As your mom comes downstairs" Enid we never really knew each other anyway Enid we never really knew each other anyway It took me a year to believe it was over And it took me two more to get over the loss. I took a beating when you wrote me those letters And every time I remembered the taste of your lipgloss. Chorus Enid we never really knew each other anyway Enid we never really knew each other anyway Maybe we always saw right through each other anyway But Enid we really never knew each other anyway There were times when I wanted to hurt you , And there were times when I know that I did. There were times when I thought I would kill you, But can you blame me I was only a kid. Tell me why we never really respected each other And tell me why I never believed you were a person too I always thought that you fancied my brother. I may not have liked it, oh but memory is a stranage thing, oh And Enid? Enid I remember you. Chorus It took me a year to believe it was over, And it took me two more to get over the loss. I took a beating when you wrote me those letters, And every time you told me to get lost. Now it's not fair to say that it's 'cause I was three inches shorter then, And it's not fair to say it's 'cause I was only fifteen years old. But maybe it's fair to say there was a lack of communication; I took a phone message, oh and speaking of communication, oh, And Enid, Enid you caught a cold. I can get a job, I can pay the phone bills I can cut the lawn, cut my hair, cut out my cholesterol I can work overtime, I can work in a mine I can do it all for you, But I don't want to. Chorus I can teach you how to dance, how to sing, how to knit, How to make things that you never ever made before Enid, I can teach you how to use cookie cutters To make crazy things out of Play-Doh Little houses, little farms, little accessories for your mom, For your Barbie set, for your friends and your family Enid, I can teach you how to snowmobile, cross-country ski, snowshoe, But I don't want to! I took you dancing, paid for your night class... |

On the path of life, I wish you well
Divergent journeys, we will meet again in Hell Kept my head down and moved Till every friend I'd known was gone Then one day, I was not alone Everything had changed Everything was strange Everything had changed Everything was strange When in rags and when in wealth A solemn promise never to give too much of myself Despite the hopeful words I've said I've lived my life inside my head Then one day, I was not alone Everything had changed Everything was strange Everything had changed Everything was strange I hold my breath and count to ten I hate it now, hated it then Seen it all before A failure and a bore That's what friends are for So it seems I must have won As I survey the ashes of the damage that I've done Everyone I've ever known Is just as closed off and alone Then one day, I was not alone Everything had changed Everything was strange Everything had changed Every thing |

I'm so cool, too bad I'm a loser I'm so smart, too bad I can't get anything figured out I'm so brave, too bad I'm a baby I'm so fly, that's probably why it Feels just like I'm falling for the first time I'm so green, it's really amazing I'm so clean, too bad I can't get all the dirt off of me. I'm so sane, it's driving me crazy It's so strange, I can't believe it Feels just like I'm falling for the first time Anyone perfect must be lying, anything easy has its cost Anyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved can be lost What if I lost my direction? What if I lost sense of time? What if I nursed this infection? Maybe the worst is behind It feels just like I'm falling for the first time It feels just like I'm falling for the first time I'm so chill, no wonder it's freezing I'm so still, I just can't keep my fingers out of anything I'm so thrilled to finally be failing I'm so done, turn me over cause it Feels just like I'm falling for the first time Anything plain can be lovely, anything loved can be lost Maybe I lost my direction, what if our love is the cost? Anyone perfect must be lying, anything easy has its cost Anyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved can be lost What if I lost my direction? What if I lost sense of time? What if I nursed this infection? Maybe the worst is behind |

I met you before the fall of Rome
And I begged you to let me take you home You were wrong, I was right You said "Goodbye" I said "Goodnight" It's all been done, It's all been done, It's all been done before. I knew you before the west was won And I heard you say the past was much more fun You go your way, I go mine But I'll see you next time It's all been done, It's all been done, It's all been done before. If I put my fingers here And if I say "I love you, dear" And if I play the same three chords Will you just yawn and say It's all been done, It's all been done, It's all been done before. Alone and bored on a thirtieth century night Will I see you on "The Price is Right" Will I cry Will I smile As you run down the aisle It's all been done, It's all been done, It's all been done before It's all been done, It's all been done, It's all been done It's all been done, It's all been done, It's all been done before |

It was often talked about; it was often raised
But nothing was ever done about it To hear the way they talked about it, no one could be saved But nothing was ever done about it Shall I take back everything I've ever said And live my whole life in silence instead? It was oversimplified; it was under-thought And nothing was ever done to stop it Everything was fortified by all the lies we bought And nothing was ever done to stop it Shall I take back everything I've ever said (Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?) And live my whole life in silence instead? (All my mistrust - we never discussed anyone's reservations) There was a time when a crime was a crime But now I think I'm losing my mind Or taking it all too hard Taking it all too hard Taking it all too hard Shall I take back everything I've ever said (Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?) And live my whole life in silence instead? (All my mistrust - we never discussed anyone's reservations) Keep to myself Maybe you're right Maybe you're right Maybe you're right But I don't think so |

It's been one week since you looked at me Cocked your head to one side and said "I'm angry" Five days since you laughed at me saying "get that together, come back and see me" Three days since the living room I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you Yesterday you'd forgiven me But it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry Hold it now and watch the hoodwink As I make you stop, think You'll think you're looking at Aquaman I summon fish to the dish, Although I like the Chalet Suisse And I like the sushi 'cause it's never touched a frying pan Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes Big like LeAnn Rimes because I'm all about value Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits You try to match wits You try to hold me but i bust through Gonna make a break and take a fake I'd like a stinkin' achin' shake I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours Gotta see the show cause then you'll know The vertigo is gonna grow 'Cause it's so dangerous, you'll have to sign a waiver How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral Can't understand what I mean? well you soon will I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve I have a history of takin off my shirt It's been one week since you looked at me Threw your arms in the air and said "You're crazy" Five days since you tackled me I've still got the rug burns on both my knees It's been three days since the afternoon You realized it's not my fault not a moment too soon Yesterday you'd forgiven me And now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry Chickety china, the chinese chicken Have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin' Watchin X-Files with no lights on, We're dans la maison I hope the smoking man's in this one Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic Like Sting I'm tantric like Snickers guaranteed to satisfy Like Kurasawa I make mad films Okay I don't make films but if I did they'd have a Samurai Gonna get a set a' better clubs Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs just so my irons aren't always flying off the backswing Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon 'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes that make me think the wrong thing. How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral Can't understand what I mean? You soon will I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve I have a history of losing my shirt It's been one week since you looked at me Dropped your arms to your sides and said "I'm sorry" Five days since I laughed at you and said "You just did just what I thought you were gonna do" Three days since the living room We realized we're both to blame, but what could we do? Yesterday you just smiled at me 'Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry Still be two days till we say we're sorry Still be two days till we say we're sorry Birchmount Stadium, home of the Robbie |

It's the perfect time of year Somewhere far away from here I feel fine enough, I guess Considering everything's a mess There's a restaurant down the street Where hungry people like to eat I could walk but I'll just drive It's colder than it looks outside It's like a dream you try to remember But it's gone Then you try to scream But it only comes out as a yawn When you try to see the world Beyond your front door Take your time, is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile When you realize that a guy my size might take a while Just to try to figure out what all this is for It's the perfect time of day To throw all your cares away Put the sprinkler on the lawn And run through with my gym shorts on Take a drink right from the hose And change into some drier clothes Climb the stairs up to my room Sleep away the afternoon Like a dream you try to remember But it's gone Then you try to scream But it only comes out as a yawn When you try to see the world Beyond your front door Take your time is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile When you realize that a guy my size might take a while Just to try to figure out what all this is for Pinch me, pinch me, cause I'm still asleep Please God tell me that I'm still asleep On an evening such as this It's hard to tell if I exist If I pack the car and leave this town You'll notice that I'm not around I could hide out under there I just made you say "underwear" I could leave but I'll just stay All my stuff's here anyway Like a dream you try to remember But it's gone Then you try to scream But it only comes out as a yawn When you try to see the world Beyond your front door Take your time is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile When you realize that a guy my size might take a while Just to try to figure out what all this is for Pinch me Try to figure out what all this is for Pinch me Try to see the world beyond your front door Pinch me Try to figure out what all this is for |

One day, I will build a fountain - drink and never grow old Then I'll market an elixir that will eliminate the common cold Find your sickness on my list, pay up-front and make a wish One day I will work with animals, All the tests I'm gonna do All my stuff's completely natural, and when we're done we'll boil 'em down for glue we can use to re-adhere your lips to mine if you were here Chorus: There's a lot I will never do Some fantastic, I know it's true But not as much as my want to be with you I can't stand to be in line long, so I built a new machine It just measures up the distance, and then eliminates the folks between One day I'll construct a satellite, and I'll name it after you 'Cause you are the greatest friend of all, except for when you split my lip in two To see the look upon your face as I launch you into space (Chorus) Bye bye, self-respect I haven't had much of it since you left I missed out on the best of you Some day I will find the secret to your social chemistry Then I'll print it on a T-shirt, and it'll make you wanna be with me And if I wear it past your work, you'll see other guys are jerks Much like pheremones for flies, you will not avoid my eyes (Chorus) Bye bye, self-respect I haven't had much of it since you left I missed out on the best of you (x2) Bye bye (repeated) |

The moon is full
But there is an incompleteness The days are beautiful But I feel a bitter sweetness If I had a wish, or even a choice, I'd wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice I let you down And fell right off your good list I hope each day you'll find peace And forgiveness The alarm clock rings What a lonely noise And I long for the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to see In this void The saying goes There will be other dances This little song is about Second chances Just say the word And I will rejoice And wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up To the sound To the sound To the sound To the sound Waking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to see In this void |

I tend the wheat field that makes your bread
I bind the sweet veal, pluck the hens that make your bed Mother Nature & Mother Earth Are two of three women who dictate what I'm worth [Chorus] I'm the farmer. I work in the fields all day Don't mean to alarm her But I know it was meant to be this way You cried a tear, I wiped it dry I put you up upon a pedestal so high If you should waiver, if you should sway I'd catch you, spread my tiny wings and fly away You signed your picture with an O and X I bet you don't write ""love"" each time you sign your cheques [Chorus] All of this corn I grow I grow it all for you I took a hatchet to the radio I did it all for you You could have written back, You could have said ""thank you"" I guess you've got better things, Better things to do You say you love me, is that the truth? Although they've heard the songs, my friends want living proof I know your address, I ring the bell I bring you flowers and a .22 with shells I'm the farmer I work in the fields all day Never wanted to harm her But I know it was meant to be this way |

It's hard enough to notice
Harder still to react Just a stone's throw from the center of our attention We all fade to black Save me from a villainous imagination Deliver me from my friends If I said something to make you mad I will take it back It's hard enough to stomach But try to look away Is this a news report or a trailer for a motion picture? It all fades to gray Save me from a villainous imagination Deliver me from my friends If I said something to make you mad I will take it back Long lines and warning signs Think of all the lives saved by plastic knives It's naive, but make believe We will never lose if we remove our shoes It's hard to keep your mouth shut Harder still to make noise But we can't have the perfect 20/20 hindsight That our fate enjoys Save me from a villainous imagination Deliver me from my friends If I said something to make you mad I will take it back I will take it back |

The Old Apartment Broke into the old apartment This is where we used to live Broken glass, broke and hungry Broken hearts and broken bones This is where we used to live Why did you paint the walls? Why did you clean the floor? Why did you plaster over the hole i punched in the door? This is where we used to live Why did you keep the mousetrap? Why did you keep the dishrack? These things used to be mine I guess they still are, i want them back! Broke into the old apartment Forty-two starirs from the street Crooked landing, crooked landlord Narrow laneway filled with crooks This is where we used to live Why did they pave the lawn? Why did they change to locks? Why did i have to break it, I only came here to talk This is where we used to live How is the neighbour downstaris? ow is her temper this year? I turned up your TV and stomped on the floor just for fun I know we don't live here anymore We bought an old house on the Danforth She loves me a her body keeps me warm I'm happy there But this is where we used to live Broke into the old apartment Tore the phone out of the wall Only memories, fading memories Blending into dull tableux I want them back |

A friend brought me flowers, she said they were lilacs, But I've never been good with plants Her next presentation, a new dictionary She circled the word "romance" So enthusiastic, a little bit drastic, I shaved her name in my head As she beheld it, she said I misspelled it; Need more be said? (chorus) These apples are delicious! "As a matter of fact they are," she said Can all this fruit be free? She wrote me a letter as big as a phone book I've never been big on mail I sent her a postcard from somewhere near Lethbridge, And wondered if it still went by rail I've never been frightened of being enlightened But some things can go too far Though sometimes I stammer and mix up my grammar, You get what my meanings are (chorus) I'm not trying to sing a love song -- I'm trying to sing in tune I know I am sometimes headstrong Falling in love, catching fire -- I want to be consumed Wondering will I ever tire, will I ever tire? (chorus) |

You say "why does everything revolve around you?" You say, "why does everything I do confound you?" You say that I pulled the world from under you, You can't go through it this time I could be good, and I would- If I knew I was understood And it'll be great, just wait- Or is too little too late? One day, This embarassment will fade behind me And that day I could think of things that won't remind me But these days it's unbearable for both of us, We can't dicuss it this way I'm gaining strength, trying to learn to pull my own weight But I'm gaining pounds at the precipice of Too Late Just wait I could be good and I would- If I knew I was understood And it'll be great, just wait- Or is it too little too late? Record and play, after years of endless rewind Yesterday wasn't half as tough as this time This time isn't Hell Last time, couldn't tell This mind wasn't well Next time, hope I'm... Going to be good, and I would- If I knew I was understood And it'll be great, just wait- Or is it too little too late? |

I'm not surprised it's come to this
Sooner or later there must be another's kiss Behind that kiss a promise of a life of bliss Yeah, great I won't be takin' the bait I'd rather drown And I will not turn my whole life upside down Imagine everything you've done Under a microscope on view for everyone And if the King of Circumspection's here He's come in vain I won't be sharing the blame I wear the crown And I will not turn my whole life upside down Nothing's good enough for me To shake me from complacency I make my mind up and I'll never be The kind of man who'd make a choice For if I hold my tongue I'll never lose my voice If each attempted act of sabotage destroys all hope I won't be needing a rope I'm gagged and bound And I will not turn my whole life upside down And if the genie were set free And by the laws of things like that, he's indebted to me I'd bury my three wishes deep down in the ground So I will not turn my whole life upside down Though I appreciate the aim Tell Andy Warhol's ghost that he can keep his fame I'd only use it to make everything the same again So don't applaud till the end I'm not around Cause I will not turn my whole life upside down Nothing's good enough for me To shake me from complacency I've made my mind up I won't make a sound |

Stop, drop and roll and I'll tell you where I'm coming from.
You've done a lot of yelling pointed at my eardrum. I'll offer all of me that you can lay your eyes on. I'll get right back to you once I get my disguise on. Hearts on fire you'll learn End up with heartburn Wind me up, my dear. Had it up to here. Wind it up. I can't believe that you'd believe that I would fake it. Wait, 'less you count the things I said when we were naked. Run, run away from everything we'd ever hoped for. I can't believe that this is what people elope for. Throw your sticks and stones Throw your mobile phone Wind me up, my dear. Had it up to here. Wind it up. If you are leaving then I wish you luck I hope someone can make your heart warm I was a baby when I learnt to suck But you have raised it to an art form. Yes I'm out of line You're out of your mind Wind me up, my dear. Had it up to here. Wind me up, my dear. Had it up to here. Wind it up. |

A is for angry, which is what you are at me A is for adult, which is what I'll never be A is for applesauce, my favorite meal A is for Adam, which is how I sometimes feel; Like I'm the only man on earth and I've forgotten what that's worth A is for Arthur, he's a lovable drunk A M & Azing like Thelonius Monk A is for argument, A is for apparent A is for antagonism that's not even there and It's just you begging for attention or something I won't even mention. (chorus) And I don't even know why you keep on trying Like I don't even know why I keep on lying There are millions of people in worlds of their own And two of them can't let go. A is for algebra, I learned it in school A is what Fonzie said, 'cause he was very cool. A is for adversery, A is for alection A is arousal, you are giving me an arection C'mon I'm trying to show affection for longer than a half an hour. (chorus) I met a woman I used to know Long before you, long ago All I could say, after hello Was "are you still single?" A is attitude I can't help but wield A is for arrogance; emotional shield A is for acting, A is for abhorrently A is for asshole, which is what I am, how rude of me, I owe you an apology I'm sorry (chorus) |

That's the problem, dear, with angry people
They try to go it alone Digging in and making cranky feeble pleas That other angries disown Angry people think a good solution Is getting others involved So they surround themselves with happy people And watch their smiles dissolve We just drag them down We just drag them down We just drag them down Until they're just like us Angry people get so sanctimonious Telling us what to do Hoping no one outs them all as phonies just cause We are all phonies too And those of us who once had wives and families Understand what I mean What was once a calm and peaceful refuge Is overtaken by spleen 'Cause we just drag them down We just drag them down We just drag them down Until they're just like us I am the singer in the band We're only trying to lend a hand And though it's not what we had planned We understand That we just drag you down We just drag you down We just drag you down Until you're just like us In a square a thousand angry people Are waving signs in the air (HEY!) While a million other happy people Are trying hard not to care (BACK OFF!) You see, the happy people's biggest problem Is they're never fearing the worst While the rest of us will never sleep until Your happy bubbles are burst Yeah, we just drag them down Didn't I just drag you down Just watch me drag you down Until you're just like us Until you're just like us Oh, until you're just like us Until you're just like us |

It was an upset
In two minutes flat We're back on the freeway Foot to the mat I can't understand it We had it down pat It's very upsetting Could we leave it at that We all had positions We each had a role We'd overrehearsed it We had full control They can't teach you acting It's there in your soul It's the same with a bank job And each thing we stole So I don't need attitude Cause you knew just what to do We all did our best now We all need to rest now Leave me alone And wait by the phone I was the driver You ran the show You had the last word The go or no go I knew every laneway In Ontario But it's not what you're sure of It's what you don't know It should have been filled with The usual ones Throwing their cash in To mutual funds We all had our ski masks And sawed off shotguns But how do you plan for A bank full of nuns But I guess we panicked We all have taboos And they were like zebras They had us confused We should be in condos With oceanfront views Instead we're most wanted On the 6 o'clock news So, I don't need attitude 'Cause you knew just what to do We all did our best now we all need to rest now Leave me alone And wait by the phone Inside the police car You tried to explain Your crisis of conscience The voice in your brain And now that the whole thing Has gone down the drain I think we all know who Should shoulder the blame 'Cause you made a choice there Almost sublime I'm all for compassion Just not on my dime You look like an amateur And that's the real crime So I'll take a walk now And you do the time And I don't need attitude 'Cause you knew just what to do We all did our best now We all need to rest now Leave me alone There's no need to phone We all did our best now We all need to rest now Leave me alone We all did our best now We all need to rest now Leave me alone |

I never thought that you would love me
The way that you do. I never thought that you would love me Half as much as I do. You say you want to know everything about me, Well, here you go; You say you couldn't live your life without me, I don't know; But if you want it girl, you got it; It's all right here in my box set. I never thought that words like product Could ever leave my lips, But something happened to me somewhere That made me lose my grip. Well, maybe it's a lack of inspiration That makes me stoop, Or maybe it's a lack of remuneration; I can't recoup. But if you want it, folks, you got it; It's all right here in my box set. Disc One It's where we've begun, it's all my greatest hits, And if you are a fan then you know that you've already got 'em Disc Two It was all brand new, an album's worth of songs, but we had to leave the whole disc blank 'cause some other label bought 'em Disc Three This is really me in a grade school play, I had about a hundred thousand lines, but of course I forgot 'em I never thought there'd be days like this, There was always someone at my door. I never thought I would ever miss, And the crowd would always holler for more. But now it seems all that people want Is what I used to be And every time I try to do something new, All they want is 1973. I never thought I'd be regretful Of all my past success, But some stupid number one hit single Has got me in this mess. You can put it on every compilation -- that's alright. You can hear it on the oldies radio station every night. And if you want it again, you got it -- It's right here in my box set. Disc Four Never released before, and you can tell why; It's just some demos I recorded in my basement. Disc Five I was barely alive, I was hacking up a lung So they had to use a special computer as my replacement. Disc Six A dance remix, to catch the latest trend and it'll make you scratch your head and wonder where my taste went. So now my fans are crying sellout, They say I've lost my touch. They say I should just get the hell out Before I do too much. Hear my songs in an ad for a bathroom cleanser -- They say it's greed, And now I'm wondering where my friends are In this time of need. But if you change your mind and buy it, I hope you enjoy my new box I hope you enjoy my new box I hope you enjoy my new box set. |

Break Your Heart
The bravest thing I've ever done Was to run away and hide But not this time, not this time And the weakest thing I've ever done Was to stay right by your side Just like this time, and every time I couldn't tell you I was happy when you were gone So I lied and said that I missed you when we were apart. I couldn't tell you, so I had to lead you on But I didn't mean to break your heart. And if I always seem distracted Like my minds somewhere else, That's because it's true, yes it's true it's this stupid pride that makes me feel Like I have to follow through Even half-assedly, loving you Why must I always speak in terms of cowardice? When I guess I should have just come out and told you right from the start Why must I always tell you all I want is this? I guess 'cause I didn't want to break your heart And you said; "What'd you think that I was gonna do, Curl up and die just because of you? I'm not that weak, you know What'd you think that I was gonna do, Try to make you love me as much as I love you? how could you be so low? You arrogant man, What do you think that I am? My heart will be fine Just stop wasting my time" And now I know that you will be okay, and that I got what I want and that's rid of you Good bye And it's not cause I'll be missing you That makes me fall apart it's just that I didn't mean to break No I didn't mean to break No I didn't mean to break Your heart |

Some people are just all show
Well, I don't mind that if the show is worth watching But it's all bark and no tree What's more ironic than a hippie in Versace? It's all peace and love and limousines You got the right message, but the wrong intentions How can you be touchy-feely when you've lost touch? I think it's time we had a little intervention with you Hey now, wake up And lose the makeup She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth (via satellite) There's no better friends than the, the kind you pay If they don't balance, great - then the door will keep revolving It's a tight circle of the chosen few Well, how'd you manage that with the recipe involving Just a pinch of sweetness and a cup of angst? Mix it all up - you're the all-purpose flour Though it looks delicious, something smells bad I don't think I'd last a half an hour with you Hey now, wake up And lose the makeup She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth (via satellite) What's it like to love you When there's no one else above you And no one gets to know you? Well, who'll be there to show you (via satellite)? It's like making love to a TV It's kinda novel, but it's miles away from satisfying Your hangers-on say it's a great deal But what you're selling, there's no chance in hell that I'll be buying Hey now, wake up And lose the makeup She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth She makes you wanna know her When you don't know what it's worth Now you really wanna show her How she's just so down to Earth (via satellite) |

Well let me tell you if you're feeling alone, Instead of whining and moaning, Just get on the phone, tell her you're coming home If you need, you should be there If you scream in your sleep, or collapse in a heap And spontaneously weep, then you know you're in deep If you need her, you should be there Go Home There's nothing better than affairs of the heart To make you feel so good then tear you apart Make up your mind and stick it out or start again You can't imagine what an effort it takes When you make a mistake And you know in the wake that a heart's going to break If you need her, you should be there If you're flummoxed and flushed And your heartbeat is rushed Then get out of the slush, tell your dog team to mush If you need her, you should be there Go Home If you think of her as Joan of Arc She's burning for you, get your car out of park If you think of her as Catherine the Great Then you should be the horse to help her meet her fate If you need her, you should be there, Go Home You can't believe it, but it's true She's given everything to you Now take a moment to be sure Before you give it all to her Well now you're thinking that it's over at last, All your woes in the past But you've got to be fast; put your foot on the gas If you need her, you should be there so now you're out from under the gun And it's over and done I won't spoil all the fun but if you ever wonder She'll be there if you need her Go Home If you're lucky to be one of the few To find somebody who can tolerate you Then I shouldn't have to tell you again Just pack your bags and get yourself on a plane If you need her, you should be there Go Home If you need her, you should be there Go Home |

She fed me strawberries and freezer-burned ice cream I said "Good-bye I guess" She lifted up her dress and so I must confess we made out one more time before I left for good She thought I'd come back but I wouldn't want to seem like other guys A book-and-record love, we sat and read our books between those longing looks, compounded by our fear My tongue inside her ear, my tongue inside her in the basement of her mother's house where she once taped the first three sides of Sandanista! for my car We were looking for ourselves and found each other In the Car It was rare to do much more than simply mess around In the Car It was mostly mutual masturbation And though we spoke of penetration I'd have to wait for someone else to try it out Once I had this dream where I slept with her mom A secret all along, unless I've got this wrong unless she hears this song unless she hears it on a tape inside her car with her new husband and she turns to him and says "I think that's me" In the Car we were looking for ourselves but found each other In the Car We groped for excuses not to be alone anymore In the Car we were waiting for out lives to start their endings In the Car We were never making love We were never making love We were never making love |

I love you intermittently I love you intermittently When immeasurably Turns to intermittently There's no use in going on Except for fear of being wrong Every morning I just hit the ground yawning... Stick around if you enjoy disaster 'Cause if you can't see what I'm after You must be blind I love you intermittently I love you intermittently Didn't have the heart to say goodbye So I continued in my charlatan ways Did I say heart? I meant to say guts Now I'm on my own and I'm sorry that you're gone |

You said good-bye, I said good night It's all been done, It's all been done, It's all been done before. I knew you before the west was won. I heard you say, "the past was much more fun."

Don't the hours grow shorter as the days go by You never get to stop and open our eyes One minute you're waiting for the sky to fall The next you're dazzled by the beauty of it all Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time These fragile bodies of touch and taste This fragrant skin this hair like lace Spirits open to the thrust of grace Never a breath you can afford to waste Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time When you're lovers in a dangerous time Sometimes you're made to feel as if your love's a crime Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight Got to kick at the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight When you're lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time Lovers in a dangerous time We were lovers in a dangerous time We were lovers in a dangerous time |

It's been one week since you looked at me Cocked your head to one side and said "I'm angry" Five days since you laughed at me saying "get that together, come back and see me" Three days since the living room I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you Yesterday you'd forgiven me But it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry Hold it now and watch the hoodwink As I make you stop, think You'll think you're looking at Aquaman I summon fish to the dish, Although I like the Chalet Suisse And I like the sushi 'cause it's never touched a frying pan Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes Big like LeAnn Rimes because I'm all about value Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits You try to match wits You try to hold me but i bust through Gonna make a break and take a fake I'd like a stinkin' achin' shake I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours Gotta see the show cause then you'll know The vertigo is gonna grow 'Cause it's so dangerous, you'll have to sign a waiver How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral Can't understand what I mean? well you soon will I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve I have a history of takin off my shirt It's been one week since you looked at me Threw your arms in the air and said "You're crazy" Five days since you tackled me I've still got the rug burns on both my knees It's been three days since the afternoon You realized it's not my fault not a moment too soon Yesterday you'd forgiven me And now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry Chickety china, the chinese chicken Have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin' Watchin X-Files with no lights on, We're dans la maison I hope the smoking man's in this one Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic Like Sting I'm tantric like Snickers guaranteed to satisfy Like Kurasawa I make mad films Okay I don't make films but if I did they'd have a Samurai Gonna get a set a' better clubs Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs just so my irons aren't always flying off the backswing Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon 'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes that make me think the wrong thing. How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral Can't understand what I mean? You soon will I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve I have a history of losing my shirt It's been one week since you looked at me Dropped your arms to your sides and said "I'm sorry" Five days since I laughed at you and said "You just did just what I thought you were gonna do" Three days since the living room We realized we're both to blame, but what could we do? Yesterday you just smiled at me 'Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry Still be two days till we say we're sorry Still be two days till we say we're sorry Birchmount Stadium, home of the Robbie |

It's the perfect time of year Somewhere far away from here I feel fine enough, I guess Considering everything's a mess There's a restaurant down the street Where hungry people like to eat I could walk but I'll just drive It's colder than it looks outside It's like a dream you try to remember But it's gone Then you try to scream But it only comes out as a yawn When you try to see the world Beyond your front door Take your time, is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile When you realize that a guy my size might take a while Just to try to figure out what all this is for It's the perfect time of day To throw all your cares away Put the sprinkler on the lawn And run through with my gym shorts on Take a drink right from the hose And change into some drier clothes Climb the stairs up to my room Sleep away the afternoon Like a dream you try to remember But it's gone Then you try to scream But it only comes out as a yawn When you try to see the world Beyond your front door Take your time is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile When you realize that a guy my size might take a while Just to try to figure out what all this is for Pinch me, pinch me, cause I'm still asleep Please God tell me that I'm still asleep On an evening such as this It's hard to tell if I exist If I pack the car and leave this town You'll notice that I'm not around I could hide out under there I just made you say "underwear" I could leave but I'll just stay All my stuff's here anyway Like a dream you try to remember But it's gone Then you try to scream But it only comes out as a yawn When you try to see the world Beyond your front door Take your time is the way I rhyme gonna make you smile When you realize that a guy my size might take a while Just to try to figure out what all this is for Pinch me Try to figure out what all this is for Pinch me Try to see the world beyond your front door Pinch me Try to figure out what all this is for |

With each mistake,
You either bend or break With every word I choose You only seem to bruise Powder blue always suited you, Or was your suitor too Until you're powder blue You're going off the deep end I'm going over all the things I've gotta say Apologies from my front door I couldn't love you more The bell was cracked Your senses sacked What once seemed civilized, In fear was paralyzed I made love blind, I lost my mind And now I'm over you As I'm not under you We thought we'd drive forever Now is it okay if I walk you to your car? Apologies, from your car floor I couldn't love you more I couldn't love you more I couldn't love you more Baby between you and me, love is all we need You held out your heart So I could watch it bleed I never thought you could ever fall Into my life, so banal But something so light shouldn't hurt ... at all Apologies, from my front door I couldn't love you more I couldn't love you more I couldn't love you more |

The moon is full
But there is an incompleteness The days are beautiful But I feel a bitter sweetness If I had a wish, or even a choice, I'd wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice I let you down And fell right off your good list I hope each day you'll find peace And forgiveness The alarm clock rings What a lonely noise And I long for the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to see In this void The saying goes There will be other dances This little song is about Second chances Just say the word And I will rejoice And wake up to the sound of your voice Oh, how I miss waking up To the sound To the sound To the sound To the sound Waking up to the sound of your voice Take it from me: there's not much to see In this void |
