Rooftop Garden
04:24

Hot summer day
On their way to the pool
Hot summer day
They were watching children pray
A cry in a car
It crashed and it burned
A cry in a car
Wasn’t long since he left her
He smoked his last cigarette
All alone in his garden
It all happened on a farm
You know he can’t support it
A breeze, it was snowing, they left an hour ago
Crashed into to a tree
Splattered all around
His children they could see
In a rooftop garden
They prayed for everyone
Tried to come out smiling
Didn’t want anyone to know
Blood dotted on the sidewalk
It was such a mess
Children on their way to school
Couldn’t bear the sight
He made the girls cry
At the outdoor revival
Stood by the pulpit
and read from the Holy Bible

Broken Bones
04:13
|

Should have wrecked the place
Tried to save some face
Make my fall from grace much sweeter
Sweeter, sweeter, sweeter, sweeter
Should have broken bones
Left it all alone
Could have telephoned to say goodbye
Say goodbye, Say goodbye, Say goodbye, Say goodbye,
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Speak the truth but that ain’t nothin’
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Tried to place a bet
Haven’t won one yet
Played a different game and I lost my hand
Lost my hand, Lost my hand, Lost my hand, Lost my hand,
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Speak the truth but that ain’t nothin’
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Speak the truth but I’m not sane
Speak the truth but that ain’t nothin’
Speak the truth but I’m not sane

When the Cows Come Home

Hiding in my home
I’m just dyin’ to be alone
I’m just dyin’ to be alone
When the cows come home
When the cows come home
When the cows come home
Will you watch the sparrow
Catch the morning worm
I’m just dyin’ to be alone
I’m just dyin’ to be alone
I’m just dyin’ to be alone
I’m just dyin’ to be alone
When the cows come home
Shaking off the whiskey from a long night ago
I’m just dyin’
I’m just dyin’
Oh I’m dyin’ to be alone
When the cows come home
Oh I’m just dyin’to be alone
I’m just dyin’ to be alone
When the cows come home

Grace

First dry day
Heads in a haze
Top of the shop
Best on the block
Just work with me
Bend like a tree
Been dry for days
Head’s in a haze
Grab your suit
Grab your hat
Do it like that
Do it like that
You said Grace, You said Grace
God has phone
Talk too much
Anything you say
Stay in touch
First dry day
Heads in a haze
Top of the shop
Best on the block
Grace, Grace, Grace
You said Grace

Love Your Mother
04:45
|
|||
When pain is all you know
From your heart to down below
And you’ve got nothing left to show
For it, for it, for it
Try not to blow it
Just don’t show it
Try not to blow it
Just don’t show it
Be your best friend, embrace yourself,
love your mother, and no one else
I’d rather disappear
Get myself out of here
Find a lonely place
Where you can’t make mistakes
Light a cigarette
Evaporate
Into a peaceful place
Try not to blow it
Just don’t show it
Try not to blow it
Just don’t show it
Love your mother, she’s the best
Just love your mother, she’s all you know
She carried you, in the snow
In the Spring
When flowers grow
In the Summer
When it’s hot
In the Autumn
When it’s not
Love your mother someone does
It won’t be long now she won’t let go
Love your mother she’s got the proof
She’s all you know she cooks for you
In spite of me in spite of you
Love your mother, she carries you
In the snow she carries you
In the snow she carried you
She carries you to and fro
She carries you in the snow
She carries you to and fro
She carries you in the snow
Be your best friend, embrace yourself, love your mother, and no one else

Anything But Blue
05:10
|
|||
Haze in my head, made the words go away
Sweet love songs from me to him
Takes away my heartache and I’m anything but blue
Please don’t call me anything but true
Please don’t call me anything but true
Takes away my heartache and I’m anything but blue
You can call me anything but blue
Please don’t call me anything but true
Please don’t call me anything but true
Takes away my heartache and I’m anything but blue
You can paint my picture
You can paint the sky
You can paint me high
paint me high
You can paint my picture, you can paint me high
You can paint me high

Nepturian Eyes
03:42
|

Did you say Monday
DId you say Tuesday
DId you say anything at all
Will we meet our maker
Does that mean God
Does that mean anything at all
I just don’t miss you anymore
I just don’t miss you anymore
I see New Jersey
The colors of spite
If memory serves me
I’ll be up all night
All alone in the bedroom
All alone in the street
Copped a glaze in the mirror
Crippled by my own feet
I can see yellow
Nepturian Eyes
Sea King
Monster of the night
Did you say Monday
DId you say Tuesday
DId you say anything at all

Sin
04:23

Up here in the penthouse
With a bottle of gin
Please let me in
Please let me in
Cause this sign is a sin
This sign is a sin
So please let me in
Please let me in
Up here in the penthouse
With a bottle of gin
Please let me in
Cause this sign is a sin
This sign
This sign
This house is a sin
This band is a sin
This street is a sin
My clothes are a sin
This whole party is a sin
This high is a sin
Oh please let me in
Please let me in
This sign is a sin
This sign is a sin
Upstairs in the penthouse
With a bottle of gin
Won’t you please let me in
Won’t you please let me in
Won’t you please let me in
Please let me in
This sign, oh this sign is a sin
This sign is a sin
I have no regrets
No lessons to learn
This sign is a sin
This bottle of gin
Won’t you please let me in
Won’t you please let me in
Won’t you please let me in
Won’t you please let me in

Lawn Care

Sometimes I can float
Sometimes I can fly
Over power lines
Do you float, out to sea
Do you meet, people like me
Sometimes the rules are different
They don’t apply to me
Sometimes I can float
Sometimes I can fly
Over power lines
Do you float, out to sea
Do you meet, people like me
