All I NeedSo I'm talking alone with a frosty-haired girl at the bar
She says she's from Mexico and I respond "Wow, that's far"
Somewhere there in between
Vodka-fueled breath in my ear
I lose hold of gravity keeping my legs put right here
But oh, Margarita, I'm taking it easy
'Cause I've got a promise to keep
Bandaged HandI got a feelin', oh I got a feelin'
I took a beatin', oh I took a beatin'
But now, I know I need to break from it now
I really need to break.
I see you dealin', oh I know you're cheatin'
Ain't got a full deck but still I see you dealing
And now
Be meThis house is a mess
I'm in the neighbourhood of loneliness
Ridin' the wave
We are the side that makes sense of this
Livin' alone even when you're ridin' next to me
Takin' the show
I'm not a dime store refugee
Ca nationIt’s a mystery
Dressing like a target splittin the seams
It’s Sisyphean
With my dreams in a cart from the grocery
It sucks me like a thrill, Takes me like a pill
Climbing up this hill
California nation, Is bringing me round
CigaretteSmoke your last cigarette
The ashtray has no regrets
You can’t take it with you
Have a glass of chardonnay
Make it last for the day
You can’t take it with you
Don’t swallow before you chew
Cool If I Come OverAin't it strange the way your mind works
Checks and balancing your day
You got it all inside that fat purse
It don't fit but you shove it in there anyway
I been looking for you, looking for me
Your show is almost over
And you're stuck in your seat
Downtown letdownThe sun is high; I’m just waking up
And I think I might finally be giving up
My boots are tight when I’m standing up
They tap to the sound of my half empty cup
And you say “change your ways”
But I really don’t think that I could
I’ve been walking round/
EskimoI once spoke up to a meter maid
She said she liked the work but not the pay
Writing tickets while you run away...Afraid
I said hey to a polar bear
He said he liked it here but not over there
That's what its like inside a dragon's lair
The ice is fading back
Honey BeeYou woke up
Even with the nightlight on
You’re seeing shadows in the break of dawn
You called out
Deep inside a dream of my own
It was a nightmare I was all alone
There was not a little ballerina
Kind of GuyGrowing up will make you humble
Getting old will make you tired
I’m not thinking about dying
I’m thinking about life
I’m that kind of guy
There’s a light in your window
There’s a moon in my sky
LuckyI locked the keys inside again/Oh well
I might be back on top again/Cant tell
I thought I’d sent bad karma back/To hell
For now I wait on AAA /Oh well
But that’s the trick
That did you in
You let it spin and you got
Only LyinVerse
Today is no different
Than any other day
The shadows above us
Are distant and gray
The algae is slimy
And the water is dark
I wish we weren't goldfish
OverachieverThoughts in my head
Drift around like lead
Won't go away
Go away or I'll be forced to retire
They'll put my number in the rafters
Why does it rhyme?
Does it always have to fit in a box?
I think outside a lot
Past PerfectGod we look so
So in the know
So in the moment/It’s there
And that’s all we care
But now
Its taking all I can muster
Just to wake up, all pale and flustered
Pop tart HeartYou can’t finish what you started
Now there’s a pack of broken hearted
Dudes knockin at your door
They sing some forgotten carol
All dressed in the same apparel
How could you ask for more?
Roll me overGirl you come and say my name
You come and anything
Anything you say I melt for you
When you stare in to my eyes,
You give me exercise
All the pain and lies, I follow you
You're the choir and the church
She waitsHave faith, promises were made
You just take… care and behave
You left and now you are saved
The path it walks you away
Meanwhile, The house is empty
The floors lay, naked and weary
The walls barely hanging on, carry on
