1. _ Paris
Written by kevin bacon
Strings written and arranged by michael bacon
"a guide book for the paranoid." kb
I'm in paris, won't be here long
But after all it's paris, guess i'd better write a song
It's so wonderful, so magical, so romantic
Note to self to change that line, it's too pedantic
But it's paris, i've come so far
I've made it all the way from the bed
To my guitar
You can call me doom and gloom
There ain't no way i'm stepping outside the hotel room
I'm a prisoner, i'm a prisoner
I'm terrified of what's outside beyond that door
I'm a prisoner, i'm a prisoner
A prisoner of 424
Brought a girl to paris, she didn't like the food
She said the time change was killing her
The waiters were rude
But if she was here now, she'd make this all go away
She'd say baby let's pretend we're not in paris for the day
I'm a prisoner, i'm a prisoner
I'm terrified of what's outside beyond that door
I'm a prisoner, i'm a prisoner
A prisoner in room 424
I should visit saint-germain des pres
Take a walk, down the champs elysees
But this room is the only place to hide
From the gargoyles, waiting just outside
I'm in paris, i see angels in the wall
I hear arabians running in the hall
See i'm in this room and this room is who i am
And if you don't like that i don't' give
A good god notre dame
I'm a prisoner, i'm a prisoner
I'm terrified of what's outside beyond that door
I'm a prisoner, i'm a prisoner
A big strong guy like me, imagine that
I'm a prisoner, i'm a prisoner
A prisoner of quatre deux qua

2. _ Bus
Written by kevin bacon
"finally broke down and wrote a road song. or is it a love song to a prevost?" kb
She comes from nashville, tennessee
But she's not too country, not too me
She's got a janis joplin heart and aretha franklin soul
I love to feel her rock and i love to feel her roll
When i'm standing in the rain she takes me for a ride
She's says you don't need that raincoat baby you can come inside
I've known a hundred thousand boys who are just like you
You don't need to say a word
Just let me do like i do, like i do, like i do
I got a good woman
God knows nothing's gonna come between the two of us, yeah
I love that woman, god knows, i love that bus
Cd, dvd, vcr, and a satellite dish and an open bar
She don't even care if my homies hang out
Doesn't bitch doesn't moan, doesn't whine, doesn't pout
And all the wannabees wanna date her
All the bluemen and the space invaders
She's got a graceland sparkle and a vegas style
She looks like she's ready to roll mile after mile
I got a good woman
God knows nothing's gonna come between the two of us, yeah
I love that woman, god knows, i love that bus
Well i thought i'd seen the world and i thought that i was wise
But she showed me other colors just by looking through her eyes
There's thunder in the west and there's lightening in the east
In the eye of the storm in the belly of the beast
Where she gonna take us to today
It don't really matter, if we get a chance to play
Something that was lost has now been found
She can keep those worn out wheels goin' round and around
I got a good woman. god knows nothing's gonna come between the two of us, yeah
I love that woman?god knows, step up baby
It's just you and me honey and the twelve of us
Yeah, i love that woman, god knows, i love that bus
February, 2001: for the band and crew, a pivotal moment in history on the bus somewhere in indiana.

3. _ Heart Half Full
Written by michael bacon
Water is to glass as _______ is to heart. a. blood b. love c. taxi d. happiness mb
As you stare off to one side and appear to be listening
I can see in your eyes, a small tear is glistening
For years we've been drifting on sands ever shifting
'neath our feet, where we once walked hand in hand
How can i say just how much i need you to stay
When i reach out to touch, why do you turn away?
The cold winds are blowing, distances growing
Tell me we've got something left to save
Is your heart half empty or half full of love
Can you ever find the feeling again
Baby my love's so large and i'll never stop
'til i fill your heart right to the top
My words can't explain just how hard i am trying
'cause my heart hurts so badly when i see you crying
Just a sign that you need me, a hint you still care
Tell me that your love is still alive
Is your heart half empty or half full of love
Can you ever find the feeling again
Baby my love's so large and i'll never stop
'til i fill your heart right to the top

4. _ Baby Steps
Written by michael bacon
"no one asked me, but that's my advice. thanks to that soul-clapping audience of yale rep on 12/8/00." mb
My friend steve he wears his heart on his sleeve
All the girls seem to leave him lonely
Well, i'm a nice guy with a shoulder to cry on
With one bit of advice only
You gotta inch your way, working every day
Showing her all your love
Lighten her load but keep it on the road and you'll grow it
So don't you blow it
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love
It's a long, long ways and so high up above
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time
Icarus standing on the shore with his dad, saying that he wants to fly
Dad says son i can hook up the wings if you promise not to go too high
But he forgot what he said and he lost his head
He headed straight for the sun
That sealed his fate, he was a little too late for returning
Now he's burning
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love
It's a long, long ways and so high up above
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time
Keep a walking. little bitty steps are gonna work it brother
Keep a walking right on
Putting one foot in front of the other, take it
Take another baby step, up the mountain of love
It's a long, long ways and so high up above
Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb
That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time

5. _ Grace
Written by kevin bacon and michael bacon
"a song about thanksgiving - not the holiday, just the act of giving thanks." kb
Bobby's lyin' round like the wakin' dead
He's got a big black cloud hangin' over his head
I want to get him up, get him out the door
I'd like to get him drunk, but he don't drink no more
He says, "oh, buddy, i really thought she was the one
Tell me what happened, 'cause we were havin' so much fun."
Some of us will live in love, and some will watch love die
There but for the grace of you, go i
Girl but for the grace of you, go i
Teddy married betty, when they were still in school
And he never was her first choice, she never was his fool
50 years together, that was somethin' less than bliss
Rarely did they tell the truth and rarely did they kiss
Pass the fish sticks, and tell me what you did today
And the clock ticks, they're runnin' out of things to say
I've seen ashes in the wind, and i've never seen him cry
There but for the grace of you, go i
Girl but for the grace of you, go i
Off we go in a cloud of dust, let the chips fall where they must
Girl you turned my life around, in the time it takes a heart to pound
Some of us will live in love, and some will watch love die
There but for the grace of you, go i
Girl but for the grace of you, go i

6. _ Can't Complain
Written by kevin bacon
"actually, i can, and do, and will continue to." kb
He jack of all trades master of none
Seen down the barrel of a teenagers gun
Puts on his makeup in the a.m., pretends to cry, for that they pay him
And his best friend held his head on the night they thought that he was dead
On the dirty, dirty kitchen floor, but he ain't around much anymore
He can't complain, he can't complain
One look and there's no doubt, there's not a damn thing to complain about
It's just a little rain, can't complain
She run run run run run from the east
She run run run run run to escape the beast
Cuts her hair and change her name
Into her life a child came
Helped her escape her past, they all said it would not last
But he took every bit of trust, and he ground it into dust
But she can't complain, she can't complain
She better get those tears off her face, if she wants to stay in this race
It's just a little rain, she can't complain
Here's a letter from my mom and dad
Oh it's lovely here don't you dare be sad
Maybe someday you'll see greece, maybe someday you'll find peace
It'll be the best damn birthday you ever had
And i can't complain, i can't complain
To complain would just be wrong, unless of course you count this song
It's just a little rain, yeah just a little rain, i can't complain

7. _ Light The Way
Written by kevin bacon
"it's about having the strength to re-define your life's work. a follow-up to 'guess again.'" kb
Emma rae's riding on a north-bound train
Spilling all that pain
On the plains of dover
Emma rae's crying from a hot cell phone
She said she never felt so alone
This time the dream is over
Surely this is her darkest hour
I've even heard her talk about a higher power
Deep in her heart comes a tiny voice
And it says "hold on momma,
'cause you've got one last choice"
Bring your dreams down to the river
And let the water wash all your dreams away
When the night comes, it will deliver
Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way
Old man standing on a soap box
He's wearing wool socks
On the hottest day all year
Old man preachin' to the handful
With a head full
He says "the end is surely near"
Now, who among you even cares?
They're turnin' circles into squares
But deep in his heart comes a tired voice
And it says "hold on daddy,
You've got one last choice"
Bring your dreams down to the river
And let the water wash all your dreams away
When the night comes, it will deliver
Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way
Light the way, light the way
Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way
Light the way, oh light the way
Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way

8. _ Sooner Or Later
Written by kevin bacon
"a tune for a real old friend." kb
Sheridan square, high as a kite
Beer in a bag, toasting the night
And we dreamed as the manhattan moon, sunk like a stone
Oh but sooner or later
You're gonna have to stand, and walk back home
Your gonna have to stand, and walk back home
You were good with your hands, good with your heart
Good to your friends, that's a good place to start
You say a man's not a man, if he don't do it alone
Oh but sooner or later
You're gonna have to stand, and walk back home
You're gonna have to stand, and walk back home
Now your fading away, like a freeway mirage
Are you out in the valley, or in your garage?
I know it's hard, every dog loves his bone
Oh but sooner or later
You're gonna have to stand, and walk back home
You're gonna have to stand, and walk back home

9. _ Don't Leave The Lava Lamp On For Me
Written by michael bacon
"hey man, how great were the 60's?!" - "well...uh..." mb
Overweight 60's rock star, staring from the tv screen
Begging the youth of america, to live a life that's sober and clean
But the kid's 17 in a ganja haze, this summer he's following phish
Watching the aging rock star, coming through his satellite dish
Don't you do that blow, all around the world
Don't you make that dough, don't you make them girls
Am i even getting through to you son?
Do like i say. don't you do like i done
She's a yellow rose of texas, she's smiling from the crowd
The message is the medium and man that guy talks loud
He tells her that it's earth day and he loves all mankind
She gives that talking unicorn her body, soul and her mind
That american flag, you must invert
As the sweat pours down his mexican wedding shirt
He leads her to oblivion
Now the rose is dead and he's long gone
Don't you leave that lava lamp on for me
Don't need a walk down memory lane
I've had enough of that sorrow and pain
Through your orange globs a-churning
There're body bags and cities burning
Don't you leave that lava lamp on for me
401 north broad street, i'm standing in my underwear
Turn your head and cough son, then go stand over there
But me i've got my letters and my middle class |
10. _ She Is The Heart
Written by kevin bacon
"it was fun writing a song for piano, but writing it on a guitar. since i can't play piano, it was a thrill to hear irwin bang it out for the first time." kb
She says she's from the city
But he knows that's not true
'cause she came down on angel wings
Out of the blue
She brings him things that he can't buy
Like light and wind, and rain
She brings a child
And he is born again
He is lost, she is the way
He is darkness, she's the break of day
When he's lying there, dying there
And his world's been blown apart
She is life, she is the heart
She's a botticelli
A breathing masterpiece
She can lift him up on high
Or bring him to his knees
When he's falling through the clouds
Just falling to the ground
Her arms are like a parachute
And together they go down
They go down
He is lost, she is the way
He is darkness, she's the break of day
When he's lying there, dying there
And his world's been blown apart
She is life, she is the heart

11. _ Mother Fear
Written by kevin bacon
"kind of exploring the role that fear plays in my life. thanks to trav for the cool lick." kb
She'll wake you in the morning
As she fills your head at night
She'll drop by, without warning
Just when you thought you were doing all right
You think she's far away in california
But she has never been so near
Mother fear
She was there the day you turned your cheek
She led you from the fight
She was in your throat, when you couldn't speak
She sings harmony tonight
She knew just were you lived
She brought the sedatives
She brought the whiskey and the beer
Mother fear, mother fear, mother fear
That peaceful feeling's so deceiving
You check the kids to see they're breathing
And as you watch your house come tumbling down
She stands beside you in the rubble
She'll be the first to recognize the sound
Of the bursting of the bubble
And as you prance and pose
In your new emperor's clothes
She'll get the crowd to laugh and cheer
And here she comes
Mother fear, mother fear
Year after year after year

12. _ I'm So Glad I'm Not Married
Written by kevin bacon
"we want this to become the 'you're so vain' of the millennium." kb
There's a line around the block, and it stretches a mile
They're gonna pay good money to see your dazzlin' smile
You got a come-hither look in your babydoll eyes
And you got the kind of body make a man tell lies
And when you're standing next to me, you do the little things you do
I say, i'm so glad i'm not married, so glad i'm not married
I'm so glad i'm not married, to you
You're the center of attention everywhere you go
Sittin' on the boys' laps puttin' on a show
You get your clothes and your shoes and your drugs for free
And god knows you've got a lot more money than me
When you're bendin' over just to give us all a better view
I say, i'm so glad i'm not married, so glad i'm not married
I'm so glad i'm not married, to you
You introduce me to your guy and you say your love is true
Well he's a better man than i, 'cause he's got to live with you
In the movie of your life, he is just an extra in it
But baby, if you were my wife
To have and hold, the truth be told
I couldn't take it for a new york minute
Now you're crying 'cause the paper printed something rude
You say you never, ever, ever, ever touched that dude
Well, it's the national enquirer it can't be true
But i'm not so sure they got it wrong about you
You're feeling kind of tragic and your eyes get misty-blue (boo-hoo!)
I say, i'm so glad i'm not married, so glad i'm not married
I'm so glad i'm not married, to you

13. _ Summer Of Love (woodstock '99)
Written by kevin bacon
"written from the perspective of a young man attending woodstock '99." kb
Me and joey came a long way, to hear that singer
Play the one that we know so well
He got up there and gave us the finger
Told me and joey to go straight to hell
Me and joey in a blacktop garden
A big old burnin' sun above
And the fires will soon be starting
But this ain't no summer of love
Me and joey had a good time with some farmer's daughter
Left her lyin' in a muddy hole
You charge an arm and a leg for a bottle of water
Well hey, i guess that's rock and roll
Me and joey in a blacktop garden
A big old burnin' sun above
And the fires will soon be starting
But this ain't no summer of love
Now me and joey's in his dad's car, overheating
Two hundred miles i-95
Joey's dad gives him a hell of a beatin'
Says we was lucky just to be alive
Someone's knockin' on the back door, momma's crying
And my head is hurtin' mighty bad
Tell you old man, and i ain't lyin
Best damn time i ever had
Me and joey in a blacktop garden
A big old burnin' sun above
And the fires will soon be starting
But this ain't no summer of love
