 The Unfortunate Result Of Spare Time » Ang lyrics [+ Idagdag +] |
1. _ Easier Done Than Said
Like a fire burning in the kitchen sink
Like a choir that can't agree on what to sing
Like a wild raging river that just can't find the will
You change your mind a thousand times, deciding to stand still
Better to live than to explain
Better to write than to have read
Better to cope than to complain
Better in your hands that in your head
Easier done that said
Like a dying flower that just don't give a damn
Like a higher power nobody cares to understand
Like a horse on a merry-go-round spinnin' at a county fair
Just running 'round in circles not gettin' anywhere
Better to guide than criticize
Better to lead than to be led
Better to act than to analyze
Better in your hands than in your head
Easier done than said
Like a tree that doesn't grow 'cause it's afraid of the sky
Like a lamp that doesn't glow and doesn't wonder why
Like a cigarette that's burnin' on the side of the road
A little less concern and no telling where you go
Better to live than to explain
Better to write than to have read
Better to cope than to complain
Better in your hands than in your head
Easier done than said

2. _ Little Eddie
There are nights when i'm in my bed
Fear, like a freight train, runnin' through my head
Watch a man in the county seat
Bring a gavel down and he looks like me
Little eddie stares at the corn all day
He says, "wonder how god makes it grow that way"
They say, "watch that weird kid wase away his life
He's one of those kline boys and you know what they're like"
Ooh, take me away to another world that doesn't think that way
Ooh, take me away to another world
Last september, it was late one night
Eddie's on a hilltop and he's listening to a fight
Finds a young girl, well, she's younger than most
Left with a blank stare, given up her ghost
He touches her lips and shuts her eyes
Pulls the knife out and begins to cry
Look at eddie standing in the moonlight
That weird little kid's got a switchblade knife
Ooh, take me away to another world that doesn't think that way
The hour arrives and the time is at hand
Eddie gets up and he walks off the stand
Stares at the jury sitting row by row
Wonders why god ever let them grow
Ooh take me away to another world that doesn't think that way

3. _ The Unfunny
Just be clever for clever's sake, starin' at the ceiling into shadow-fakes
The circle-smokes in the ladies room only got you as far as the roles assumed
A glimpse of the perfect crime is just a reverie away
Whadaya say we hang there a while for expediency's sake?
And fantasize the great demise of the unfunny
Cut and dry, we'll bid good-bye to the unfunny
Their personality inspires like a five pound bag of fertilizer
Like living in a house with fifteen cats, you're unaware of the stench when a line goes flat
A glimpse of the perfect crime is just a reverie away
Whadaya say we hang there a while for expediency's sake?
And fantasize the great demise of the unfunny
Set 'em up, we'll drink a cup to the unfunny

4. _ Laundromat Radio
This town ain't much to look at, there ain't that much to do
With the local joe's at the stop and go and the class of '42
We go down to the laundromat and listen to that station
Find out where the fire was at and see what's in rotation
Good morning to you, good morning to you
Laundromat radio
Last year's reader's digests, weight watchers magazines
Discussions on arthritis with dirty welfare queens
With a case of light beer and a pack of light cigarettes
We try to minimize the damage but still raise our consciousness
Good morning to you, good morning to you
Laundromat radio
Tomorrow i think i'll get up and march on down to sears
And buy all those appliances i've been dreamin' of for years
Then i'll get on of those stereo receivers of my own
So i can be bored to tears from the comfort of my home

5. _ She's The Woman
She's the woman i chose to own me
She's the woman i gave the reigns
She picks me up when i'm feelin' lonely
She pays the bills, i can't complain
She's the woman who understands
She's the woman who loves her man
She's the woman who stayed in college
She's the woman got an mba
She's using all her higher knowledge
She got me where i am today
She's the woman who understands
She's the woman who loves her man
She's the woman i've been looking for
She wakes me up and helps me off the floor
She's the woman who does the drivin'
She takes me there, then she gets me home
I don't have to be out there buyin'
She sits with me while i drink alone
She's the woman who understands
She's the woman who loves her man

6. _ A Better Way To Save The World
You stand on your platform and present your views
You hand out your opinion like it's the daily news
While your checkin' your look in the mirror
From your head down to your shoes
But you don't know
A better way, a better way to save the world
Your are not my conscience and you are not my keeper
I ain't no saint, i ain't no saviour, but brother you ain't either
So let's leave the judgments up to jesus and st. peter
'cause you don't know
A better way, a better way to save the world
So before you accuse me take a look at yourself
You're just as lost and confused as everybody else
And a man never looks behind a door he hasn't stood behind himself
And you don't know
A better way, a better way to save the world

7. _ Laugh To Keep From Cryin'
Sunday morning the kids are playing in the street
Lookin' for pennies in the cracks of the concrete
And i'm looking down at them while i'm sittin' on the roof
Prayin' to a bottle of 86 proof
Well, the sun she came a-risin' so strong and proud
Took one look down upon this town and hid behind the clouds
I don't need no reasons or excuses for myself
I laugh to keep from cryin' like everybody else
I lost my job but i don't like to think about it
I get enough money to drink enough to forget about it
I ain't no beggar but they say i got the symptoms
They break a man's legs and then they blame him for limpin'
Well, the sun she came a-risin' so strong and proud
Took one look down upon this town and hid behind the clouds
I don't need no reasons or excuses for myself
I laugh to keep from cryin' just like everybody else

8. _ A Matter Of Time
Town clock stopped tickin', but it ain't broken
Got a problem that no one can define
While that river keeps on a-flowin'
Hang on children, it's a matter of time
Angry child, impatience growin'
Waits with her father in that unemployment line
While that river goes on a-flowin'
Hang on darlin', it's a matter of time
Scarecrow watchin' years of growin'
With floods of asphalt creepin' closer each time
While that river goes on a-flowin'
Hang on brother, it's a matter of time
Sparrow, she's sleepin' with now way of knowin'
What's goin' on inside those telephone lines
Below, that river keeps on a-flowin'
Hang on sister it's a matter of time
Some say god created man, his likeness showin'
I do believe they've got it backwards this time
Somehow that river goes on a-flowin'
Hang on children, it's a matter of time
Tainted river flows to the ocean
That coughs up on the shore its poisonous brine
Why don't that river just stop a-flowin'
Hang on children, it's a matter of time

9. _ Me, Myself And I
I'm having a conversation with some friends i know
Somebody i agree with no matter where i go
Somebody i never have to wait for or try to read their minds
Somebody i never have to say, "are you having a good time?"
Here's to the perfect evening with me, myself and i
We'll go pick out a movie and we'll all choose the same one
We'll share the same opinions after the feature's done
Then we'll discuss our future plans and we'll all just ride the fence
And we'll all agree that we're the only ones left here with any common sense
Here's to stayin' inside with me, myself and i
I get so tired of all this 'me or you or me or you'
I got better ways to spend my time with me, myself and i
So i asked myself, "what do you think?" and he said, "don't ask me"
He'll just take both sides of any point eventually
Then we'll have to sit here and try to compromise
Till we're all too god damned tired for anyone to decide
Here's to getting no where with me, myself and i
I get so tired of all this 'me or you or me or you'
I hot better ways to spend my time with me, myself and i
Hey big mama, ain't you got no soul left in those tired bones?
Hey big daddy, who you talkin' to on the bedroom telephone?
Hey little mama, i could use some help tryin' to tear off this disguise
And i ain't that hard to find with me, myself and i

10. _ It Don't Matter Anymore To Me
I climbed up the mountain, i sailed across the sea
But it don't matter anymore to me
I sent my money to the preacher man, i prayed for the lottery
But it don't matter anymore to me
Everybody has somewhere else they think they wanna be
But it don't matter anymore to me
I visited the gypsy, i visited the shrink
But it don't matter anymore to me
I drank bourbon whiskey like it was goin' extinct
But it don't matter anymore to me
Everybody has someone else they think they wanna be
But it don't matter anymore to me
I jeopardized my friends and my own mental health
Just tryin' to defend my own opinion of myself
I gave it all my money, i gave it all my time
But i don't know why
Tried to please everybody all of the time
But it don't matter anymore to me
You no sooner change yourself then they change their mind
It don't matter anymore to me
Everybody knows someone else they think you oughta be
It don't matter anymore to me

11. _ You're Not The Only One
I was sad and lonely as can be
When an angel appeared in front of me
And she said to me "you're not the only one"
And i said "darlin', darlin' you don't understand
My life ain't turnin' out like i had planned"
And she said to me "you're not the only one"
Well, we spend our lives in speculation, spend our time in thought
Try to estimate the value of every thing we bought
While the days keep gettin' shorter and the nights keep gettin' colder
And we're gettin' older
So let's not spend our time tryin' to make sense
Of all these things that make no, no difference
Or the consequence, " you're not the only one"
So we'll watch this world from a different point of view
With these angels watching over me and you
We keep them amused; we're not the only ones

12. _ Tore Down Flat In Jackson
Filthy and anonymous in jackson, a dozen keys to nowhere in his hand
Black madonna, won't you change his luck and find him fifty grand?
'cause he's tore down, months from nowhere, with the day-to-day out of his hands
One key fit the door to their apartment, another fit the business he let die
A stray dog whines as the august rains turn naked ground to mud
And he's tore down, feelin' nothin' but the third-rate spirits in his blood
He's livin' for a ticket on the whiskey train
The saddest thing's to see him venerate that ball and chain
Roadhouse corn done cut his strings to somewhere, paper rich done met a ball of fire
Black dog cloud done filled his head and drained him like a vampire
Now he's tore down flat in jackson with a daily gig in the backdrop choir
He's livin' for a ticket on the whiskey train
The saddest thing's to see him venerate that ball and chain
A thick late august field of pigweed dances, a t.v. from the fillin' station's heard
He's holdin' up the wall, the moment says it all without a word
Well, he's tore down, world stopped movin' when 'halfway to the label' claimed it cured
