1. _ Driver 8
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
The walls are built up, stone by stone,
The fields divided one by one
And the train conductor says
"take a break driver 8, driver 8 take a break
We've been on this shift too long"
And the train conductor says
"take a break driver 8, driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"
I saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the farm
The power lines have floaters so the airplanes won't get snagged
Bells are ringing through the town again,
Children look up, all they hear is sky-blue, bells ringing
And the train conductor says
"take a break driver 8, driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"
But we're still a ways away
Way to shield the hated heat
Way to put myself to sleep
Way to shield the hated heat
Way to put myself, my children to sleep
He piloted this song in a plane like that one
She is selling faith on the go tell crusade
Locomotive 8, southern crescent hear the bells ring again
Field to weed is lookin' thin
And the train conductor says
"take a break driver 8, driver 8 take a break
We've been on this shift too long"
And the train conductor says
"take a break driver 8, driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"
But we're still a ways away

2. _ Romance
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
Nations call
Par-parallels
Neighbors call
All in all, in all, in all, in all
(chorus 1)
That's worth saving up for
Put our heads down on the chest
Mustn't even race for rest
Easy come, easy go
(chorus 2)
Easy come
Easy go
Easy come
Easy go
Stares conceal
Par-parallels
Neigh-neighbors call
All in all, in all, in all, in all
(repeat chorus 1)
(repeat chorus 2)
Chance is yours
And call the shot
Even in a parking lot
With one romance
One romance
(repeat chorus 2)
Neighbors call
Par-parallel
Late at night nations fall
All in all, in all, in all, in all
(repeat chorus 1)
(repeat chorus 2)

3. _ Fall On Me
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
There's a problem, feathers iron
Bargain buildings, weights and pullies
Feathers hit the ground before the weight can leave the air
Buy the sky and sell the sky and tell the sky and tell the sky
(chorus)
Fall on me (what is it up in the air for) (it's gonna fall)
Fall on me (if it's there for long) (it's gonna fall)
Fall on me (it's over it's over me) (it's gonna fall)
There's the progress we have found (when the rain)
A way to talk around the problem (when the children reign)
Building towered foresight (keep your conscience in the dark)
Isn't anything at all (melt the statues in the park)
Buy the sky and sell the sky and bleed the sky and tell the sky
(repeat chorus)
Fall on me
Well i could keep it above
But then it wouldn't be sky anymore
So if i send it to you you've got to promise to keep it whole
Buy the sky and sell the sky and lift your arms up to the sky
And ask the sky and ask the sky
(repeat chorus 2x)
Fall on me
(repeat chorus)
Fall on me
(repeat chorus)

This one goes out to the one i love
This one goes out to the one i've left behind
A simple prop to occupy my time
This one goes out to the one i love

Fire (she's comin' down on her own, now)
Fire (she's comin' down on her own, now)
(repeat chorus 1)
(repeat chorus 2)
This one goes out to the one i love
This one goes out to the one i've left behind
Another prop has occupied my time
This one goes out to the one i love

5. _ Radio Free Europe
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
Beside yourself if radio's gonna stay
Reason: it could polish up the grey
Put that, put that, put that up your wall
That this isn't country at all
Raving station, beside yourself
Keep me out of country in the word
Deal the porch is leading us absurd
Push that, push that, push that to the hull
That this isn't nothing at all
Straight off the boat, where to go?
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio free europe
Beside defying media too fast
Instead of pushing palaces to fall
Put that, put that, put that before all
That this isn't fortunate at all
Raving station, beside yourself
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio free europe
Decide yourself, calling all of the medias too fast
Keep me out of country in the word
Disappoint is into us absurd
Straight off the boat, where to go?
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio free europe, free europe
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio free europe, free europe

7. _ Finest Worksong
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
The time to rise has been engaged
You're better best to rearrange
I'm talking here to me alone
I listen to the finest worksong
Your finest hour
Your finest hour
Another chance has been engaged
To throw thoreau and rearrange
You are following this time
I beg you not beg to rhyme (blow your horn)
Your finest hour (blow your horn)
Your finest hour
Take your instinct by the reins
Your better best to rearrange
What we want and what we need
Has been confused, been confused (blow your horn)
Your finest hour (blow your song)
Your finest hour
Take your instinct by the reins
Better best to rearrange
What we want and what we need
Has been confused, been confused (blow your horn)
Your finest hour (blow your song)
Your finest hour (blow your horn)
Your finest hour (blow your song)
Your finest hour

8. _ (don't Go Back To) Rockville
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the station for a bus
Going to a place that's far, so far away and if that's not enough
Going where nobody says hello, they don't talk to anybody they don't know
You'll wind up in some factory that's full time filth and nowhere left to go
Walk home to an empty house, sit around all by yourself
I know it might sound strange, but i believe
You'll be coming back before too long
(chorus)
Don't go back to rockville, don't go back to rockville, don't go back to rockville
And waste another year
At night i drink myself to sleep and pretend
I don't care if you're not here with me
'cause it's so much easier to handle
All my problems if i'm too far out to sea
But something better happen soon
Or it's gonna be too late to bring you back
(repeat chorus)
It's not as though i really need you
If you were here i'd only bleed you
But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and
That's not how it ought to be
I know it might sound strange, but i believe
You'll be coming back before too long
(repeat chorus 2x)

9. _ Gardening At Night
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
I see your money on the floor, i felt the pocket change
Though all the feelings that broke through that door
Just didn't seem to be too real
The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my eyes
Somewhere it must be time for penitence. gardening at night is never where
Gardening at night, gardening at night, gardening at night
The neighbors go to bed at ten
Call the prayer line for a change
The charge is changing every month
They said it couldn't be arranged
We ankled up the garbage sound, but they were busy in the rows
We fell up, not to see the sun, gardening at night just didn't grow
I see your money on the floor, i felt the pocket change
Though all the feelings that broke through that door
Just didn't seem to be too real
Gardening at night, gardening at night, gardening at night
Your sister said that you're too young
They should know they've been there twice
The call was 2 and 51
They said it couldn't be arranged
I see your money on the floor, i felt the pocket change
Though all the feelings that broke through that door
Just didn't seem to be too real
We ankled up the garbage sound, but they were busy in the rows
We fell up not to see the sun, gardening at night just didn't grow
Gardening at night, gardening at night, gardening at night

10. _ Can't Get There From Here
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
When the world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Kick the clay that holds the teeth in
Throw your trolls out the door
If you're needing inspiration
Philomath is where i go, i go
Lawyer jeff he knows the low-down
He's mighty bad to visit home
(chorus)
(i've been there i know the way)
Can't get there from here
(i've been there i know the way)
Can't get there from here
(i've been there i know the way)
Can't get there from here
(i've been there i know the way)
When your hands are feeling empty
Stickheads jumping off the ground
Tris is sure to shirr the deers out
Brother ray can sing my song
(i've been there i know the way)
Can't get there from here
(i've been there i know the way)
Can't get there from here
(i've been there i know the way)
Can't get there from here, here, here
(i've been there i know the way)
Hands down, calechee bound
Land locked, kiss the ground
The dirt of seven continents going
Round and round
Go on ahead mr. citywide
Hypnotize, suit and tie
Gentlemen testify
If your world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Philomath they know the low-down
Throw your trolls out the door
(repeat chorus 2x)
Can't get there from here
(i've been there i know the way)
(thank you, ray)

11. _ Southern Central Rain (i'm Sorry)
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
Did you never call? i waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The trees will bend, the cities wash away
The city on the river there is a girl without a dream
(chorus)
I'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry
Eastern to mountain, third party call, the lines are down
The wise man built his words upon the rocks
But i'm not bound to follow suit
The trees will bend, the conversation's dimmed
Go build yourself another home, this choice isn't mine
I'm sorry, i'm sorry
Did you never call? i waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The ocean sang, the conversation's dimmed
Go build yourself another dream, this choice isn't mine
(repeat chorus)

12. _ Its The End Of The World As We Know It (and I Feel Fine)
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and
Snakes, an aeroplane and lenny bruce is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world
Serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. feed
It off an aux speak, grunt, no, strength, ladder
Start to clatter with fear fight down height. wire
In a fire, representing seven games, a government
For hire and a combat site. left of west and coming in
A hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. team
By team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped
Look at that low playing! fine, then. uh oh,
Overflow, population, common food, but it'll do. save
Yourself, serve yourself. world serves its own needs,
Listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and
The revered and the right, right. you vitriolic,
Patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty
Psyched
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it and i feel fine
Six o'clock - tv hour. don't get caught in foreign
Towers. slash and burn, return, listen to yourself
Churn. locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood
Letting. every motive escalate. automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a votive. step down, step down
Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh, this means no
Fear cavalier. renegade steer clear! a tournament,
Tournament, a tournament of lies. offer me solutions,
Offer me alternatives and i decline
(chorus)
It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time i had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time i had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it and i feel fine (it's time i had some time alone)
I feel fine
(repeat chorus)
The other night i dreamt of knives, continental
Drift divide. mountains sit in a line, leonard
Bernstein. leonid brezhnev, lenny bruce and lester
Bangs. birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! you
Symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? right
(repeat chorus)
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it and i feel fine (it's time i had some time alone)
(repeat chorus 2x)
Fine
It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time i had some time alone)
