1. _ Long Way Home
Oh, it's cold and lonely here-
Here in this telephone booth
There's three sides to every story:
Yours and mine and the cold, hard truth
I think there's something missing 'round here
I don't know where it's gone
But it's a long way back home
The heat don't work
The toaster don't work
The car don't work
And i guess i know why
This house don't work and this dream don't
Work no more
And lover, neither do you and i
I fall asleep with the colors flying
Over sand and foam
But it's a long way back home
And it's a long way back home
And it's a long way back home
It's a long way back home

2. _ Lilah
lilah
Like every young man, i had some things that i
Wanted to say
Ere i could begin, you know the world got
In my way
Oh lilah, to sleep like a baby
To open the window and feel the fair wind
Oh lilah, to sleep like a baby again
We spend so much time weeping and wailing and
Shaking our fists
Creating enemies that really don't exist
Oh lilah, to sleep like a baby-
To open the window and feel the fair wind
Oh lilah, to sleep like a baby again
All these comings and goings that cut like a knife
These small, simple pleasures that make up a life
A man needs a home, and a child, and a wife
To always be there-always
After i'm gone, there are some things that i know
I will miss
The taste of your mouth; the smell of the perfume
On your wrist
Oh, lilah, the fields lie fallow
Whate'r ye sow, so shall ye reap
The river's still shallow
But the riverbank is dark and deep
Oh lilah, the fields lie fallow
Whate'r ye sow, so shall ye reap
Oh lilah, this ground be hallow
Is ours to tend, but not to keep
Toodle-loo de-loo lilah
Toodle-loo de-loo de-lay
Now, while all the streets are silent
Take my hand and come away
Toodle-loo de-loo lilah
Toodle-loo de-loo de-lay

4. _ Them And Us
One finger on the button
One finger up his nose
Johnny's in some cornfield
The early warning blows
Bigger is better
More is more
Look up, america!
Gonna even up the score
Get ready boys
Third times a charm
Don't need no sweater
It's gonna keep you warm
If we can't have the ball, there won't be any winner
This time
Them and us
Them and us
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
If forty-five minutes
It'll all be done
We'll all be good and crispy
But we'll still be number one
And if things go from bad to worse
We can still kill them if they kill us first
If we can't have the ball, there won't be any winner
This time
Hell-bent
Heaven sent
It all got started by an accident
If we can't have the ball, there won't be any winner
This time
Them and us
Them and us
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Them and us
Them and us
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

5. _ Johnny Can't Read
johnny can't read
Football, baseball, basket ball games
Drinkin' bear, kickin' ass and takin' down names
With the top down, get-a-round, shootin' the line
Summer is here and johnny's feelin' fine
But johnny can't read
Summer is over and he's gone to seed
Johnny can't read
He never learned nothin' that he'll ever need
Well, johnny can dance and johnny can love
Johnny can push and johnny can shove
Johnny can hang out; johnny can talk tough
Johnny can get down and johnny can throw up
But johnny can't read
Summer is over and he's gone to seed
(you know that), johnny can't read
He never learned nothin' that he'll ever need
Well, is it teacher's fault? oh no!
Is it mommy's fault? oh no!
Is it society's fault? oh no!
Well is it johnny's fault? ohhhhh nooooo!
Couple years later, johnny's on the run
Johnny got confused and he bought himself a gun
Well, he went and did something that he shouldn't
Oughta done
F.b.i. on his tail
"use a gun-go to jail"
But johnny can't read
Summer is over and he's gone to seed
(you know that), johnny can't read
He never learned nothin' that he'll ever need
Well is is teacher's fault? oh no
Is it mommie's fault? oh no
Is it the president's fault? oh no
Well is it johnny's fault? ohhhhh nooooo!
Johnny can dance and johnny can love
Johnny can push and johnny can shove
Johnny can pinball; johnny can talk tough
Johnny can get down and johnny can throw up
Well, recess is over
Recess is over!
Sitcoms, "t.&a."
Johnny's mind is blown away
Cop shows, horror flicks
Johnny's brain is full of bricks
Rock show, video
Boob tube, rubik's cube
Game fools, sunday school
Gain fans(?), gobble gangs(?)
Wonka wonka wonka
There's a new kid in town...

6. _ The Unclouded Day
O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies
O they tell me of a home far away
O they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of an uncloudy day
O they tell me of a place where my friends
Have gone
O they tell me of that land far away
Where the tree of life in eternal bloom
Sheds its fragrance on an uncloudy day
O the land of cloudless day
O the land of an uncloudy sky
O they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of uncloudy day
O they tell me that he smiles on his children there
And his smile drives their sorrows away
And they tell me that no tears ever come again
In that lovely land of uncloudy day
O the land of cloudless day
O the land of an uncloudy day
O they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise
O they tell me of an uncloudy day
O they tell me of an uncloudy day
O they tell me of an uncloudy day
O they tell me of an uncloudy day

7. _ Dirty Laundry
"i make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something i can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry
Well, i coulda been an actor, but i wound up here
I just have to look good, i don't have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick 'em all around
We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you 'bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
It's interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry
You don't really need to find out what's going on
You don't really want to know just how far it's gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're stiff
Kick 'em all around
Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry
We can do "the innuendo"
We can dance and sing
When it's said and done we haven't told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!

8. _ Nobody's Business
I went out in the darkness
Just searching for someplace to be
Wasn't looking for trouble
I guess it was looking for me
And i knew i was wasting my time
But it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mine
I was taking some comfort
I needed a break from the rain
I guess i was mistaken
And someone remembered my name
But i knew i was doin' just fine
And it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mine
Well i guess for some
Revenge is sweet
Though it be once removed
I hope you feel better
I don't know what you proved
Well, yonder comes the emperor, boys
He sure looks fine in blue
I hope you feel better, babe
I know you're scared too
Well it sure makes you wonder
The things that some people will say
They can see black and white but they
Don't seem to notice the gray
What a price for a victimless crime
When it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mine
Yeah, it was nobody's business
Nobody's business but mine

9. _ I Can't Stand Still
I know you love me
You know i love you too
You know i always will
No matter what you do
You say you haven't got another lover
You say you only want to make the scene
Then you try to keep it under cover
What does that mean?
And baby, i can't stand still (while he's holding you)
I can't stand (while he's kissing you)
So we got a little problem, baby:
How to put together love and work
If i could figure out that one, darlin'
I could save us from a world of hurt
I remember when we walked together
Makin' love on a summer night
Guess we thought that it would last forever
We were all right
But baby, i can't stand still (while he's holding you)
I can't stand still (while he's touching you)
I can take it if you need some freedom
Understand it if you miss your friends
Don't you ever try to think of me some
You never tell me where you've been
You say you haven't got another lover
You say you only want to make the scene
Then you try to keep it under cover
What does that mean?
And baby, i can't stand still (while he's holding you)
I can't stand still (while he's kissing you)
And baby, i can't stand still (while he's holding you)
I can't stand still (while he's touching you)
I can't stand still

10. _ You Better Hang Up
Out here in the country where the weather gets so mean she thinks about the places that she ain't never seen she knows that she's married but she can't remember why and she wonders what it might
Like with some other guy
And though she's hotter than an oven just to fill your lovin' cup if a man answers, you better hang up
You better hang up you better hang up you better hang up you better hang up
You're from new york city where they don't say no prayers anything goes and nobody cares and the country girl might thrill ya but you better pass her by 'cause her ol' man love to kill ya for th
K that's in your eye
And though you're hotter than an oven just to fill her lovin' cup if a man answers, you better hang up
You better hang up you better hang up you better hang up you better hang up

11. _ Talking To The Moon
talking to the moon
In the hot september sun down in texas
Sucked the streams bone dry
Turned to roads to dust
In the sleepy little towns down in texas,
The shades are all pulled down;
The streets are all rolled up.
And the only thing that breaks the silence
Are the trucks a-passin' by
Late at night on the front porch swing
You can hear their mournful sigh
And the lonesome weeping willow cries to the stars above
He was callin' out for his lady love
She's been gone so long
I was just talkin' to the moon
Hopin' someday soon that i'd be over
The memory of you-too hard to hold
And the wind across the plains
Is all that now remains
And the night shakes loose the names
But they never quite go back the way they came
So, good-bye rodeo
It's a long, funny way for men to go
Never change
Never change at all
I was just talkin' to the moon
Hopin' someday soon that i'd be over
The memory of you- too hard to hold on
I was just talkin' to the moon
Hopin' someday soon that i'd be over the
Memory of you
