One Trick Pony
03:56
|
|||
|
He's a one trick pony
with an eggy, phony baloney disguise
Don't look in his eyes
Monkey macaroni
he's an artist showing off all of his lies
counterclockwise
Galleria floating
images of Hollywood long, long ago
With the walls emoting
kitschy koo and a dash of Vincent Van Gogh
I know, he's making the scene for show
but nobody noticed...he's bogus
He's a one trick pony
got an fakey, phony baloney surprise
Just look in his eyes
every prop strategically placed for maximum effect
every drop of paint from his brush is an axiom perfect!
every slice of ego has a gravitational pull...
pulling, pulling... you
he's a one trick pony
he's a circus barker with stars in his eyes
he's wants to franchise, and digitize
his audience buys...into every dream he sells
goodbye...
Amazon imploding
20 years of honing a one trick skill
not as many doting
another face, lacking that magical thrill
i know, he's missing the scene, for show
but somebody noticed, he's bogus
He's a one trick pony
with an eggy, phony baloney disguise
just look in his eyes
He's a one trick pony
he's a one trick phony
he's a one trick
he's a one trick guy

Bombs Away!
05:33
|

Richard only lived incognito
said at the request of the band
They say he looked like Robert DeNiro
when he only had a couple of fans
He used to understudy for Hamlet
Horatio, for he knew him well
now he's just a name on a casket
doing stand-up for Shakespeare in hell
Oh, oh...
Hey, bombs away
We live today
Until the final curtain
Hey, bombs away
for we only live once, so they say
Only once... they say
Hey, Carpe diem in ole France'
Away , Montenegro or Skye
Life is a mystery
Make your own history
So they remember your name
Hey, bombs away
We live to play
Until the final curtain
Hey, bombs away
for we only live once, so they say
Pancho gave up guns for burritos
He couldn't carry on in this way
The General said that he was finito
should be happy at the end of the day
The family settled down in Chihuahua
A revolution outside his door
Chili peppers and guacamole
are the only thing he's fighting for
Oh, hey bombs away
we live to play
until the final curtain
hey, bombs away
For we only live once, so they say
Hey, find your way down to old Pompeii
Away...Maybe Montego Bay
Life is a mystery
Make your own history
So they remember your name
Oh, hey bombs away
we live to play
until the final curtain
hey, bombs away
For we only live once, so they say
Oh hey, bombs away
We live today
Until the final curtain
Hey, Bombs away
For we only live once
So they say...

My Old House
02:51
|
|||
|
The roof is leaking
The paint is peeling
The thought of leaving you makes me want to cry
I could not bare to live without you
Don't know why..
The cozy parlor
Where we would swoon
The lazy summers...
The Sunday afternoons
I could not bare to live without you
Don't know why
In My old house
Every room holds a memory
The porch wraps around like a hug
soft and tenderly
The warm sunlight pours through every window pane..no rain
My old house been around for a century
The worn maple floors are the doors to a reverie
The fence and the stream are a rolling dream come true...thank you
The view from the meadow is a jazz to beholden
The house becomes a trumpet
and The sound is somethin golden
There's no place on Earth that I'd rather be then here.. with you
The roof is leaking
The paint is peeling
The thought of leaving you makes me want to cry
I could not bare to live without you
Don't know why..

Little Bird

Little bird tell me why
Did you fly away into the sky
I barely met you, now it's over
I miss my little on my shoulder
Butterfly, by and by
at my window ever since July
I barely knew you, now it's over
You left me for some other shoulder
.
Little bird you're a wonder
You're meant to be with another
You're far away from me now (bye, bye)
I'm happy for the time we shared
Fly away little birdy
Fly away
Fly, fly, fly...little bird .
Fly, fly, fly...little bird
Ladybug passing by
Near my garden, how you caught my eye
I hardly knew you, now it's over
Maybe fly a little closer
My Ladybird my little loner
I miss my little on my shoulder
Little bird you're a wonder
You're meant to be with another
You're far away from me now (bye, bye, bye)
I'm happy for the time we shared
fly away
fly fly little birdy... fly away

Ghostwriter

Hey ghostwriter
Write me another song
Go on now, get along
You ain't done me wrong just yet
Hey ghostwriter
Like we agreed upon
So go on and write a hit song, so we can get rich
You can pay the bills and while we wait I'll go fish
He sits alone and he works all day
The fans who adore him don't know his name
He writes the songs that make the whole world sing
If you need a good anthem ...give him a ring
Hey, ghostwriter
Strong as the lexicon
Open from noon until to dawn
Go write a hit song for me
He works alone and he writes all day
The words from his pen are not the words he might say
He writes the songs that make the young girls cry
If you need a rain maker, give him a try
Hey, ghostwriter
Last one was kinda long
Go on and write me that song, so I can be rich,
You can pay the bills and while we wait I'll go fish
The lyrics should be perfect for me
Our drummer would be grateful for a solo or three
Hey ghostwriter, go write a hit song for me
Hey ghostwriter, go write that hit song for me
You pick the key
Hey ghostwriter, go write a hit song for me
me, me, me
Hey ghostwriter, go write that hit song for me
The band would be grateful if you write a hit song for me
me, me, me,
Hey, ghostwriter

Diamonds on the lake and rowing oars
There's a kettle on a wire and a warm bed to retire, near the door
One, two, three, four
Can I play with you a little more...by the fire?
We got time enough to do all that we do
And the Forrest is as green as anything you've ever seen
Or ever will
Five, six, seven, eight
Would you like to stay up late with me for awhile?
Cos I wanna to be with you
Waking up to bacon and sunshine
Climbing trees and chasing ducks,
gettin mud and mucky muck on all our clothes
One, two, three, four
Can I play with you a little more in the wood?
Counting every star up in the sky
And the moon is just a face with silver cracks in every place
That we spy
Five, six, seven, eight
Would you like to stay up late with me for awhile?
Cos I wanna be with you

I love my mountain momma
And mountain momma she loves me
I love my mountain momma
Were as close as two can be
Making love in the high grass where the little ones they can't see
Early to bed, early to rise, mountain momma with the sun in her eyes
I need my mountain momma
mountain momma she needs me
Every morning gonna tend the garden, the goats and the Apple tree
livin high in the backwoods is where we wanna be
early to bed, early to rise, chicks to feed, and hay to ride, with a mountain momma by my side
country livin til the day we die
Ooh yeah, mountain momma
She's such a beautiful sight
10 chickens and an ornery llama
keeping us up all night
Little wee ones playing with the piggies
Momma say she don't care
Son of a gun, let em have some fun
wash em in the creek when the day is done
I love my mountain momma
And mountain momma she loves me
I love my mountain momma
Were as close as two can be
Making love in the high grass where the little ones they can't see
Early to bed, early to rise, mountain momma with the sun in her eyes
I need my mountain momma
mountain momma she needs me
Every morning gonna tend the garden, the sheep and the Apple tree
livin high in the backwoods is where we wanna be
early to bed, early to rise, chicks to feed, and hay to ride, with a mountain momma by my side
country livin till the day we die

Meet in the barn
Meet you there where we can spin a few yarns
Tell a story bout the birds and bees
I'm askin you please to meet in the barn
Where have you gone?
I made a bed where we can lay until dawn
Nobody has to know
I'll sing you a song if you come along
Just be in the barn...
I'll sing you a song if you come along
Meet in the barn

Someday
They're gonna tear down Maggie's Farm
Someday
They're gonna burn down that old barn
Someday
They're gonna dig up all that land
Someday
They're gonna find that missing man
Somebody somewhere let her down
And now Maggie can't be found
She ran Juniors farm into the ground
Maggie, Maggie where have you gone?
Somebody somewhere let her down
Now Maggie's gone and she can't be found
Everybody's saying we should burn the whole thing down
Maggie, Maggie where have you gone?
Maggie, Maggie what have you done?
Maggie, Maggie....run!

Autumn Leaves
03:26
|

|
Her work was her life
but at home she's the wife
the one put the flowers in the vase
the one who can't afford to make mistakes
the forever war she treats so common...
place her so high
what boundaries her sky?
The little things that get into her way
the passion that secretes from day to day
the love she had to live her life...
thrown away....went the future that she'll never know
and potential to ever grow
this I believe, so Autumn leaves
Gone went the future that she'll never know
and potential to ever grow
all of that talent is thrown to the breeze
Oh no, it's not fair that she'll never even care
but I hope someday she may dare to understand why
Autumn leaves
Her art was her life
but instead she's only his wife
the one who runs the errands day to day
the one who tries to stay out of his way
the love she had to live her life was thrown...
away....went the future that she'll never know
and potential to ever grow
all of that talent is thrown to the breeze
Oh no, it's not fair that she'll never even care
but I hope someday she may dare to understand why
Autumn leaves

Thank you
for every little thing you do
for opening the door that let me through
I just need to say
Thank you
Thank you
for every little thing you are
For lighting up my sky, you are a star
That's what you are
Thank you
The hours of the day tend to melt away when you are next to me
When your not beside, I couldn't tell you why...
I'm a mess without you
I do
cherish and adore you too
every day you give me something new
That's just what you do
Thank you
The hours of the day tend to melt away when you are next to me
When your not around, one thing I have found
I'm a mess without you
Thank you
for every little thing you are
for giving me so much
you are a star
that's just who you are
thank you
for everything you do
thank you

Somewhere My Love
03:26
|

Ordinary people
living ordinary lives
Drawn together
Though they know not why
Cautionary feelings
giving cautionary lies
binding to a truth they left behind
Somewhere my love
Somewhere my love
Calling on the universe
Where do the answers hide
far above the wake
of our divide...oh, oh, ohh...
Somewhere my love
Somewhere my love
We are together
Somewhere my love
Somewhere my love
We are forever...
Ordinary people
pass each other every day
Lovers or lament
It's hard to say...
Somewhere my love
Somewhere my love
We are together
Somewhere my love
Somewhere my love
We are together...
Somewhere my love
Somewhere my love
We are forever...
Oh, oh, whoa...

Please Stay

Well I never , loved nobody
the way I love you
oh the things you do
When I hold you in my arms
You know my love is true
Yes you do...
Well, I never, no, no, never
Met somebody, somebody like you
you're like a dream come true
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Just Like a rubber band
You understand...
If you ever go away
or lead my heart astray
I would die, I would die that very day
If you ever say goodbye
and make me wanna cry
Well I'd beg you, I would beg you to stay
Please stay
Well , I'll never want somebody
The way I want you
Oh, believe me, and I want you
I want you with me all the time
I need you by my side
You know you're mine. Mine, mine mine mine
If you ever go away
and lead my heart astray
I would die, I would die that very day
If you ever say goodbye
and make me wanna cry
Well I'd beg you, I would beg you to stay
Please stay...
If you ever go away
and lead my heart astray
I would die, I would die that very day
Please stay

Hey, hey, hey...Bonnie Parker
Your money or your life, that's how you do
Hey, hey, hey ... Bonnie Parker
The bottom of the Barrow ain't for you
You gone and fell in love
with the wrong end of the law
And the folks are so delighted by the news
Hey, hey ...
My, my, my...Bonnie Parker
You taught us all a naughty trick or two
My oh my, Bonnie, partner
You shot em down 13 times, in lieu
Of a cozy honeymoon,
with a gentleman as groom
but to trade that picket fence
Didn't make no moral sense
So you soured on the vine
And you lived be true to thine
For in 1934 you shot the moon
And it shot you
bye, bye, bye...Bonnie Parker
bye, bye, bye...Bonnie Parker

The Harmony of Love
02:11

The harmony of love is all you'll ever need..
When you're feeling glad
and the world is on your side
When nothing makes you sad
And the mood is right, all day and night
That's the harmony of love
Ooh, there are roads to take you there
If you only care...
So when you're feeling fine
and the stars align for everyone
the harmony of love
It's older than the universe divine, all mine
yeah...
So when you're feeling fine
and the stars align, every time
That's the harmony of love
So when you fall asleep
in the arms of one you love, and..
give your heart to keep
when you know it's right, all day and night
When the stars align, every time
And your heart is just a bell to chime
That's The harmony of love

Penny was a friend of mine
She was. Was a friend..
Until the very end
Then one day she opened up a door
She walked thru
It was the only thing to do
Penny was the kindest girl whom everyone adored
Gentle eyes and pony auburn hair
Penny loved her horses and she rode them on the Moore
Now Penny doesn't ride there anymore...
Many people often stopped and stared
When she rode by
Her beauty uncompared
Now the trail is over grown and green
She was 18. The last time she was seen
Penny was the kindest girl whom everyone adored
Gentle eyes and baby auburn hair
Penny loved her horses and she rode them on the Moore
Now Penny doesn't ride there anymore...
Thru the door
Penny only wanted something more
There's no one here that she need answer to
She disappeared in summer, seven four
Now Penny doesn't live here anymore
Thru the door
Penny only wanted something more
There's no one here that she need answer to
She disappeared in summer seven four
Now Penny doesn't live here anymore
