This Song
03:07
|

A song of laughter, a song of hope
A song about drowning at the end of your rope
A song of elation, a song of light
A song about murder on a cold winter night
It's all about feelings it's all about dreams
Pretty girl kisses and spiders and screams
It's all about lust and how it caught me unaware
It's all about love and how I don’t care
A song about wisdom in the mountains we climb
A song about stepping on the wrong side of the line
A song about flying through an everlasting sky
A song about treason on the Fourth of July
It's all about nightmares it's all about bliss
Roaches on your birthday cake, sweetness in your kiss
It's all about time and how it caught me unaware
This song about love and why I don’t care
A song of laughter, a song of hope
A song about drowning at the end of your rope
A song of elation, a song of light
A song about murder on a cold winter night
It's all about feelings it's all about dreams
Pretty girl kisses and spiders and screams
It's all about lust and how it caught me unaware
It's all about love and how I don’t dare

Another Speeding Ticket
02:58
|
|||
Got me another speeding ticket
Fifty-Seven in a Twenty-Five
Scared to go home and tell the Mrs.
This time she'll skin my ass alive
Oh I got me another citation
Didn't see that cop there on my six
It was a moving violation my friend
They told me I was driving much too quick
Cost me a hundred seven dollars
Points upon my license too
But if my car was any faster I swear
I would never get busted like I do
Here we go
Cost me a hundred seven dollars
Points upon the license too
But if my car went any faster I swear
I would never get busted like I do
Oh I got me another citation
Didn't see that cop there on my six
It was a moving violation my friend
They told me I was driving much too quick
Yes I got me another speeding ticket
Fifty-Seven in a Twenty-Five
Scared to go home and tell the Mrs.
This time she'll skin my ass alive
This time she'll skin my ass alive
This time she'll skin my ass alive

Into The Clouds
02:56
|
|||
Into the clouds where I keep my head
I feel all right as both my eyes turn red
When the tides of life have turned against my soul
I stick my head in the clouds
And leave all my troubles below
Yes in the clouds hey that's where I'm gonna stay
Down there on Earth nothing never ever goes my way
Any time you want to try and push me around
I tip my hat and float away into the clouds
OK everybody let’s float away into the clouds…
Yes in the clouds hey that's where I'm gonna stay
Down there on Earth nothing never ever goes my way
Any time you want to try and knock me down
I tip my hat and float away into the clouds
I tip my hat and float away into the clouds
I tip my hat and float away into the clouds

Come On Down Now
04:20
|
|||
Has Death broken the bonds
To whom we were so fond?
Can you hear us at all?
If so answer our call…
*** Come on down now
Come on down now
From your home beyond the sky
Come on down now
Come on down now
Wipe the tears from our eyes
There’s no reason for our grieving
When your spirit’s living on
Let us hear you - let us see you
Show your loved ones that you’re not gone
***
Move a table if you’re able
Shine some lights around the room
Shake the rafters – bring us laughter
Take away our painful gloom
***
Use our bodies if you need to
We know your love can’t do us harm
Leap that chasm with ectoplasm
And extend your spirit arm
***
Wipe the tears from our eyes
Wipe the tears from our eyes

Aint Gonna Move
02:16
|
|||
Well I aint gonna move
Gonna sit on my ass all day
Don't matter what you say
Aint gettin' up anyway
No I aint gonna move
Vegetating here like a stump
No way I'm gettin' off my rump
So get the hell away from me you chump
Hahaha “chump”
Yeah the boss keeps calling me
Up on the telephone
Put my stare on the wall
And impersonate a stone
Stone
Cause I aint gonna move
Gonna sleep like a freaking log all day
Makes no difference what you say
I aint gonna budge anyway
Well I aint gonna move
Gonna sit on my ass all day
Doesn't matter what you say
I aint gettin' up anyway

Tell me everything I want to hear
Sugarcoat it all for me my dear
Whisper nothing but a bunch of
Sweet lies in my ear
Tell me everything I want to hear
Do it now
Do it now
And when this new reality
Throws random compliments at me
You put a smile upon my face love
All throughout the year
Tell me everything I want to hear
Do it now
Do it now
With your next everloving breath
Remember to "Yes!" me to death
Put a smile upon my face love
All throughout the year
Tell me everything I want to hear
Tell me everything I want to hear
Sugarcoat it all for me my dear
Spin your words to fit my desire
All throughout the year
Tell me everything I want to hear
Do it now…

Here Comes The Sun
03:08
|
|||
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes (x6)...
Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right

Flea Ditty
03:04
|
|||
Wishing that my doggie had no fleas
To the man up in the sky I'm begging please
Don't want to get high this way
Tripping out on insect spray
Wishing that my doggie had no fleas
Oh great yeah the cat’s infected too
What the hell is a guy supposed to do?
Spray until all the fleas are dead
Seeing flowers in my head
Oh great yeah the cat’s infected too
And I been ***
Alright
They been feeding upon me for a while
And I pray that I don't end up with freaking West Nile
Yes I spent the whole week scratching fleas
Hope I don't get no disease
Cause they been feeding upon me for a while
They got me ***
Yes I been wishing that my doggie had no fleas
Yes I been wishing that my doggie had no fleas

I Don't Care-O
02:52
|
|||
Hey there baby don’t try to make me blue
You love somebody but you don't know who
Just got one thing I want to say to you
I declare-o - I don’t care-o
There just aint no getting through to you
And I know that this will never do
Just got one thing I want to say to you
That I swear-o - I don't care-o
Seems like there just aint no getting over you
Looks like nothing that I do will ever do
Just got one thing I want to say to you
That I swear-o - I don't care-o
Hey there baby don’t try to make me blue
With all the wicked things you always do
Just got one thing I want to say to you
I don't care-o - I don't care-o
I don't care-o - I don't care-o
Oh…

Say Goodbye
02:02
|
|||
I like to look up in the sky
Cause it makes me wonder why
I keep smoking if I'm high
Holy crap you know that I
Aint some kind of Russian spy
See you later got to fly
Back to Mother’s Apple Pie
My oh my
So pretty baby don't be shy
Cause I would never tell a lie
Gonna poke you in the eye
And count the years until you die
Cause like a bitch I’m gonna cry
And you are the reason why
The well of love is running dry
Now it's time to say goodbye
And you also know that I
Keep on looking in the sky
Cause it makes me wonder why
I keep on smoking if I'm high

Red House
03:43
|
|||
There's a red house over yonder, that's where my baby stays.
There's a red house over yonder, baby, that's where my baby stays.
Well, I ain't been home to see my baby in about ninety nine and one half days,
Wait a minute, something's wrong.
The key wont unlock the door.
Wait a minute, something's wrong, baby.
The key wont unlock the door.
I got a bad, bad feeling that my baby don't live here no more.
That's alright, I still got my guitar
Look out now
I might as well go on back down,
Go back 'cross yonder over the hill.
I might as well go back over yonder
Way back yonder 'cross the hill, (That's where I come from)
Cause if my baby don't love me no more.
I know her sister will!

Where My Money Goes
02:51
|
|||
Check…
Oh my paycheck come next Friday
But today is always now
Let's all join hands and spend it anyhow
I tell you mister it sure aint
Three bucket loads of fun
This stack of fees
For insufficient funds
Down the toilet bowl
That is where my money goes
Before I even get to spend a dime
This is what I do
When the water starts turning blue
I wave goodbye to the cash
Cause it aint mine
Bye bye now I'll miss you
I get a total rush
From an unsuccessful flush
The President came a-swimmin’ back to me
The lady at the bank
Said she was gonna close her till
If I gave her one more wet dollar bill
Hahaha I said...
Down the royal can
That is where my money has been
Before I ever got it in my hand
This is what I do
When the water starts turning blue
I wave goodbye and never see it again
Until next week when I do it all over again
Until next week when I do it all over again

Butt Face Song
03:24
|
|||
Life been really hard
I got a butt for a face
There is a crack in every mirror
Lord it's such a total disgrace
Shoulda never cut that Witch Doctor
Off in line
He substituted the face
With an ass upon mine
So now I been trying to speak
But nobody understands
They always tell me I reek
And start waving their hands
And everybody assumes
I just aint got no class
Ever since I gave up my head
In exchange for my ass
So come on over here now baby
Won't you give me a kiss
Wonder wonder what I am ever
Gonna get outta this
Nothing really been the same
Since the mug got replaced
Sure aint easy walking around
With an ass for a face
Butt Face Butt Face
Gotta say it really sucks
To have a butt for a face
There is a crack in every mirror
Lord it's a total disgrace
Wish I never cut that Witch Doctor
Off in line
He substituted the face
With an ass upon mine

Fall
03:05
|
|||
Yeah fall is quite the bitchy season
Starts out pretty but it leaves you freezin'
Swear by golly it just aint pleasin'
To smile when everything dies
Just like me inside
Don't like pulling the leaves in
And this has really got me seethin'
I had any cash I would surely be leavin'
Way before anything dies
Especially me inside
I would almost rather get me a splinter
In the eyeball than look at one more winter
Freeze my nuts off just like my sister
It all starts out on a fine autumn day
And aint that just always the way?
Fall is quite the bitchy season
Looks all pretty while committing treason
Can't think of one single reason
To smile when everything dies
To smile when everything dies
To smile when everything dies
Just like me inside

People come into your life
Hey brother don't you know
The ones that seem to matter
Are the ones that always go-go-go
People come into your life
Aint nothing more to say
The ones that act indifferent
Are the ones that stay and stay
And stay and stay
And stay and stay
Don't let them aggravate you
If they try to get your goat
Throwing stones all year
But not a single one shall float
Don't you listen to their nonsense
Honey don't you know
I will think about you
Anywhere that you may go
Yes I will think about you
Everywhere that you may go-go-go
So never put your heart
Upon the ones that drag you down
Those little people smile
Every time they make you frown
And they never go away
Just stick to you like glue
So put them all behind you dear
Whatever you may do
Cause people come into your life
And brother don't you know
The ones that seem to matter
Are the ones that always go
The ones that seem to matter
Are the ones that always go
The ones that really matter
Are the ones that always go-go-go

Christmas Is A Bummer
02:19
|
|||
Christmas is a drag
If you aint got no money
To hit the old price tag
Before it drops upon your head
Christmas is a drag
I swear it just aint funny
And I don’t want to sing no Yuletide crap
Until after the turkey is dead
Oh Christmas is a bummer
Especially right after Halloween
Might as well be summer for crying out loud
If you know what I mean
Yes it makes me want to gag
So instead I’ll sing this song
Dig from a grave of Christmas bills
Until next year comes along
Oh Christmas is a bummer
When you’re all broke and such
If it happened in the summer
Christmas wouldn’t suck as much
Yes Christmas is a drag
If you aint got no money
To hit the old price tag
Before it drops upon your head
Gotta hit the old price tag
Before it drops upon your head
Gotta hit the old price tag
Before it drops upon your head

Henry
02:47
|
|||
Every year along about this time it all goes dry
Looking around for love or money that’ll get you high
Henry got pissed off and said he’d run to Mexico
See if he could come back holding twenty keys of gold
Now the road to Acapulco is very hard indeed
And it isn’t any better if you haven’t any weed
Henry’s driving hard and straight along twisty mountain road
Fifty people waiting back at home for Henry’s load
*** And now he’s rolling down the mountain
Going Fast! Fast! Fast!
And if he blows it this one’s gonna be his last
Run to Acapulco to turn the golden keys
Henry, keep the brakes on for this corner
If you please…
Henry got to Mexico and turned his truck around
Talking with the man who has it growing from the ground
Henry tasted, he got wasted; couldn’t even see
How he’s gonna drive like that is not too clear to me
***
Sunday afternoon Tijuana is a lovely town
The bullfight brings the tourists and their money flowing down
Border guards are much too busy there at five o’clock
Henry’s trucking right on through, and hardly even stopped
