1. _ Trouble
Trouble, that's what we had
And everything that goes around
Comes around in a bittersweet lament
Well my heart's already broken down
Looking for a sweeter sound
Looking for a brighter day
I'm face down on the pavement
Step aside, see the light, close your eyes
And let us live our lives
As the rally |
2. _ Dying On The Vine
Dear one, i had enough
Killjoy hold up in above
I been sick and tired playing out my day in a dream
Hurry up, hurry up it's late
I'm dying in the shadow
I'm just a little baby boy in your arms
So you, you know who you are
Thought i saw you in the rearview mirror looking down
Took the dive friday night
Had a pretty good alibi
Gasoline it hit the deed, not taking it for granted
Hurry up, hurry up it's late
I'm tongue-tied and getting something
Chorus:
Babe, scared of you, scared of you
Babe, scared of you, scared of you
Headed down to kingsfield
With the key in my hand
Took a swim down at hidden beach
You and me in the sand
Hurry up, hurry up it's late
I'm dying in the shadow
I'm just a little baby boy
But now i'm getting something
(chorus)
Dear one, i've had enough
Raise the flag, i'm giving up
I'm just sick and tired living out my day in a dream
I want to be the first to say it
Black or white but never gray
I don't feel like me today
I'm dying in the shadow
Hurry up, hurry up it's late
But now i'm getting somewhere
Babe, scared of you, scared of you
Babe, scared of you, scared of you, scared of you
Scared of you, scared of you, scared of you
Scared of you, scared of you, scared of you

3. _ Big Star
I'm flat-busted, wild-eyed and free
I couldn't get arrested if i tried
A has-been at a mere thirty-five
Straight, honest, forthright and true
Great expectations for someone
Doesn't anybody know how to have fun
But i'm gonna be big star
I'm gonna be a big star someday
I'm gonna be a big star someday
Grape's bitter, i'm no quitter
Revolutions come one by one
Seems it's high noon and i ain't got no gun
But it so hard, so hard
So hard getting by
Gonna be big star
I'm gonna be a big star someday
I'm gonna be a big star someday
Fine bourbon, cuban cigars
Rude remarks observed in the c.c.bar
I'm perfecting the finest art of wasting hour
But i'm gonna be big star
I'm gonna be a big star someday
I'm gonna be a big star
I'm gonna be a big star someday

4. _ Bottomless Cup
Walk me to the bus
Tell me it's all right
Talk the man out of
The first drink and drive
Rock away my terror
After i burn the place down
But you know
The years make things different
If you go
The bottomless cup runs out
You never gave up on me
Chorus:
I think i let you down
I could use you around, use you right now
There's nothing quite like the sound of
Your voice in the evening
Calling my name
It's getting late
I used to say "i love you"
A hundred times a day
What ya gonna say
When you learn they turned me
The day is gonna come
For something to take you
But it's clear
Nothing comes near to you
When we go
I lower my sights
You never gave up on me
(chorus)
But i can't wait
To get on back
No, i can't wait
To get on back
I can't wait
Get back
I'll take it back (*4)
It back

5. _ Haywire
Billy was a vampire
Carving out an empire
Strolling pirates' alley in the middle of the night
Buy a round of cocktails
Spinning sordid fables in the twilight
That's all right
Scattered words that matter
It's a disaster in the making
Take the time to smell the leaves beneath the trees
( smile, smile, smile)
That's all right
Chorus:
My whole life has gone haywire
I'm just a blade bending in your shade
For your love i'm a vampire
Strolling the ways of esplanade
I headed up to pittsburgh
Heard you could get a pretty god sandwich
For fifteen and a dime
Ooh, what i miss that old stretch of road
Down to the bayou
In the middle of the night
Guilt by association
The mere smell of speculation conjures up for hell
That's all right
Feel the touch of oil from the tankers upon the breeze
( smile, smile, smile)
Yeah, that's all right
(chorus)
That's my whole life in a nutshell
Take it as you will
I can hear that old brass band
Playing our song down the hill
That's all right
Won't you smile, smile, smile. that's all right
Won't you smile, smile, smile. that's all right
Won't you smile the smile
That fills the room with an independent light
But that's all right
(repeat 4 times - fade)

6. _ Stick In The Mud
I've been getting by
I've got no cross to bear
But i'm still getting there
Chorus:
You've got me down on my knees
Begging you please don't leave
Let me be nice to you
You're still my best friend
Who says this is the end
Why do good things divide
Why did they all choose sides
Slow steady wins the race
Slow steady wins the race
You've got the sweetest eyes
You just couldn't be mean
See you down on skyline drive
(chorus) *3 (fade)

7. _ It's Up To You
|
8. _ Think About It
Took her pills and her magazines
Left her lying in her misery
He was locked up in his room
Colored pinwheels as the sirens whine down the avenue
Think about it once
Take your time, don't fuss
What you got to lose
Everybody choose
Think about it once
Take your time, don't fuss
All the dog-eared pages on your shelf
You never talk except about yourself
All the red eyes in the room
Tried to rearrange your world for you
Think about it once
Take your time, don't fuss
What you got to lose
Everybody choose
Think about it once
What you got to lose
As he pulled his pad and scribbled «suicide»
The county coroner, he shock his head from side to side
He was a little less than pleased
Very pale and very tired
The toil of love had brought them to their knees
Think about it once
Take your time, don't fuss
What you got to lose
Everybody choose
(repeat 3 times)
Think about it once
What you got to lose

9. _ Poor Little Fish
Chorus:
Poor little fish, swimming in the water
Hide behind the coattails of your father
I've been alone so long i thought i'd never last
Stuck up on a shelf like an old dusty hat, yeah
But then you come along
You put me on that throne
Up into the sky, yeah
Thought i saw nick cave down at the laundromat
You put your hand in my hand ant that was that, yeah
Your perfume on my sleeve
You lit my life like a christmas tree
Up into the sky , yeah
(chorus)
Y'know a cold, cold heart sleeps awful well
While the maids vacuum the hall outside my cheap hotel room
The whole damn shit came down
Exploded to the ground
Pusssh, up into the sky, yeah
(chorus)
Where you are is who you are
When you're sleeping
Where you are is who you are
When you're sleeping
Poor little fish
Poor little fish
Poor, poor little fish
Poor, poor little fish

10. _ Sound Of Lies
Chorus:
It's a matter of time
Till i fall
In the middle of the town
There stands a tall brick wall
In the middle of a dream
Where time plays in between
The sound of lies rings funny
Against the truth
When i was young, outspoken
Mama said it'll work out right
The sixteen brought a moody star
Mama said it'll work out right
Mama said it'll work out right
Boulevards and green leaves billowing
(chorus)
(chorus)

11. _ Sixteen Down
Sunshine stealing stage time
From the moon and stars above
She said leave me alone
I said take me home
Sixteen down living in the hallowed ground
Chorus:
Now the blue has turned to red (ahh madeline, breathe)
All but given up for dead (ahh madeline, breathe)
Ooh, madeline (madeline, breathe) madeline, breathe!
Skiff rocked like a cradle
And the poor girl fell overboard
Rope wrapped around her neck
Tangled in her hair soaked wet
They dragged the stream
The body never to be found
(chorus)
The dirt in the stream
The body never to be found
Accepting for the footprints caked
In the muddy ground beside where she laid
My life made the headlines
Beneath the waterlily sky
She said leave me alone
I said take me home
Sixteen down living in the hallowed ground
Now the blue has turned to red (ahh madeline, breathe)
All but given up for dead (ahh madeline, breathe)
Ooh, madeline (madeline, breathe)
Now the blue has turned to red (ahh madeline, breathe)
All but given up for dead (ahh madeline, breathe)
Ooh, madeline (madeline reid) madeline reid can't breathe

12. _ The Man Who Loved Life
Won't you take my hand
Won't you be my friend
Take my advice, go away
When the days get short and the chips are down
Will you be there, will you stick around
And if thou shalt give
Thou shalt be deceived
This traveling band was not well received
No open arms, or reception lines
Just handlebars wearing five point stars
Chorus:
Am i living in your dream
We got the guns, we got the guns
A thousand to one, a thousand to one
He's the man, he's the man
He's the man who loved life
Served by different stories
Am i living in your dream
Pretty metal green
Can i ride upon your wings so free
In the canyon walls there's a trusty lot
The stakes were high
And the sun was hot
You can rest assured as the casinos rise
Buzz around my ears like the dragonflies
(chorus)
Served by different shores
Am i living in your dream
Pretty metal green
Am i living in your dream so real
Heard a million stories
Am i living in your dream, yeah
Pretty metal green
Am i living in your dream, yeah
