1. _ Medley (second Half)
I tend to forget when i drink
I'm doing it again i think
A hand to hold an ego to flatter cause you were the wineskin and i was the bladder
Time passes and events fall away and
I don't think they'll hurry up hurry up
I'm blacking out high on the vapor cause i was the typo you were the liquid paper
Talkin over talkin over talkin the answers still the same
Discontent humiliation cause you were the theme and i was the variation
Try to take the less frenetic
Course of action
Introspection diction ooohh prediction
Breaking my heart again
Breaking my heart

2. _ Sad Sweet Heart Of The Rodeo
Not another existential cowboy,
And no more california champagne,
Not another saddle tramp, sick, sore, lonely and out of place ,
Crying in his coffee ice cream, c'mon,
Edith cannot fix another engine,
Nor paint another face on a rubber can clown,
She takes another temp job,
But in her secret heart she rides,
Sad, sweet heart of the rodeo,
Awooooo-ooooo,
Not an urban legend now, sad, sweet heart of the rodeo,
Awoooo-ooooo-oooo-ooo-ooo
Give it a rest, give it a rest, give it a day,
Norman says that you can take a valium,
Or maybe something stronger,
'cause he doesn't understand,
Well, how do you get so excited watching the lusty man?
The marlboro man died of cancer,
And he wasn't a rocket scientist when he was healthy, ha ha ha,
She took one last gulp of soft city condensention,
And blasted off from his little ....? (no clue in heaven.)
Sad, sweet heart of the rodeo,
Awooooo-ooooo,
Not an urban legend now,
Sad, sweet heart of the rodeo,
Listen, cowboy bill, where are ya? (awooo-ooo-ooo)
(*long guitar solo*)

3. _ Pity And Fear (ballad Of The Tragic Hero)
Remember pericles?
He democratized the city with his mind.
A little wisdom never hurt anyone...
Tell that to socrates!
Telling the citizens what they needed to hear
(but still, they fed him hemlock.)
Now, the greeks don't speak my language.
I don't get the relevance.
I am the reverence, i have no reverence.
Show me no deference; i'll do the same for you.
La la la la
Did you ever know you're my tragic hero?
You be the pity, i'll be the fear,
And every subscriber will know what a truly
Great man you are.
In the conference room he said to me, quote,

4. _ Sometimes You Have To Work On Christmas (sometimes)
A studio apartment in a dull part of seattle
A strand of light suspended by a thumbtack in the drywall
The restaurants are closed
So are the record shops, the banks, and bars, and bartel drugs,
And so's the half price bookstore
But the movies are always open
And i always have to open
A repertory movie house
Well life is not so wonderful
For 15 soggy patrons who have no better place to be
Not to mention me
I'm working for a holiday wage
My family is two time zones away,
I'm supposed to call them
My vodka and snow is melting
The alcohol isn't helping
Sometimes you have to work on christmas, sometimes
You have to work on christmas, sometimes
You gotta work on christmas,
I doubt i'll miss this
There's an artificial tree blinking in the lobby,
Sitting on the coffee table, yea
Strangers and spare changers stand in line like poor relations
At some kind of sad reunion
And i'm selling the tickets
They come in out of the weather
For christmas alone together
Sometimes you have to work on christmas, sometimes
You have to work on christmas, sometimes
You have to work on christmas,
I doubt i'll miss this next year
Sometimes you have to work on christmas, sometimes
You gotta work on christmas, sometimes
You have to work on christmas,
I doubt i'll miss this at all
