1. _ Artists Only
I'm painting, i'm painting again.
I'm painting, i'm painting again.
I'm cleaning, i'm cleaning again.
I'm cleaning, i'm cleaning my brain.
Pretty soon now, i will be bitter.
Pretty soon now, will be a quitter.
Pretty soon now, i will be bitter.
You can't see it 'til it's finished
I don't have to prove...that i am creative!
I dont' have to prove...that i am creative!
All my pictures are confused
And now i'm going to take me to you.

2. _ Found A Job
"damn that television ... what a bad picture"!
"don't get upset, it's not a major disaster".
"there's nothing on tonight", he said, "i don't know
What's the matter"!
"nothing's ever on", she said, "so ... i don't know
Why you bother."
We've heard this little scene, we've heard it many times.
People fighting over little things and wasting precious time.
They might be better off ... i think ... the way it seems to me.
Making up their own shows, which might be better than t.v.
(chorus)
Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations.
Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations.
They've enlisted all their family.
They've enlisted all their friends.
It helped saved their relationship,
And made it work again ...
Their show gets real high ratings, they think they have a hit.
There might even be a spinoff, but they're not sure 'bout that.
If they ever watch t.v. again, it'd be too soon for them.
Bob never yells about the picture now, he's having
Too much fun.
(chorus)
Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations,
Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations.
They've enlisted all their family.
They've enlisted all their friends.
It helped save their relationship,
And made it work again ...
So think about this little scene; apply it to you life.
If your work isn't what you love, then something isn't right.
Just look at bob and judy; they're happy as can be,
Inventing situations, putting them on t.v.
(chorus)
Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations.
Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations.
They've enlisting all their family.
They've enlisted all their friends.
It helped save the relationship,
And made it work again ...

3. _ The Girls Want To Be With The Girls
The girls don't want to play like that,
They just want to talk to the boys.
The just want to do what is in their hearts,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
(chorus)
And the boys say, "what do you mean?"
And the boys say, "what do you mean?"
Well there is just no love,
When there's boys and girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
Girls want things that make common sense,
The best for all concerned.
They don't want to have to go out of their way,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
(chorus)
And the boys say, "what do you mean?"
And the boys say, "what do you mean?"
Well there is just no love,
When there's boys and girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
Girls are getting into abstract analysis,
They want to make intuitive leap.
They are making plans that have far reaching effects.
And the girls want to be with the girls.
(chorus)
And the boys say, "what do you mean?"
And the boys say, "what do you mean?"
Well there is just no love,
When there's boys and girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls.

4. _ With Our Love
It's just a look, and it makes the boys quiver.
Yes, it's just the look, and now they remember.
Had they forgotten ... what this all means?
I think they want to forget,
And they hope that this time.
(chorus)
I won't look, i've got other things to do now.
I forgot what it was, i've got to get to work now.
(and they) set an example for us (i see it!).
It can happen to me too.
(and it) didn't make any difference to us (but i)
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble.
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble.
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble.
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble.
With our love,
With our love,
With our love
They hear the words, such as "you're really special"
(and they) can't face the feeling.
(and they) can't really tell
I look out the window,
(and i) i call that education.
(and i) see all my friends standing out there
(and i) i call that education (sophistication)
(repeat chorus)
Had the forgotten...what this all means?
Things come and go (and i see 'em)
And i wont be neglected (not this time!)

5. _ Warning Sign
Warning sign, warning sign,
I see it but i pay it no mind.
Hear my voice, hear my voice,
It's saying something and i hope you're concentrating
I've got money now, i've got money now,
C'mon baby, c'mon baby.
Warning sign of things to come (take it over, take it over)
Someone's talking on my telephone (when we're older,
When we're older)
Hear my voice, move my hair.
I move it around a lot, but i don't care. (what i remember)
Warning sign, warning sign,
Look at my hair, i like the design.
It's the truth, it's the truth.
Your glassy eyes and your open mouth
Take it easy, take it easy,
It's a natural thing and you have to relax,
I've got money now, i've got money now.
C'mon baby, c'mon baby.
Warning sign, of things to come (turn me over, turn me over)
Love is here but i guess it's gone now (hurry up babe,
Hurry up babe),
Hear my voice, move my hair.
I move it around a lot, but i don't care.
Do you remember
What it is that you remember
Baby remember
Baby remember.

6. _ The Good Thing
I will fight; will fight with my heart.
I will fight; will fight with understanding.
In my mind, the weather never changes
Skill overcomes, difficult situations.
A straight line exists between me and the good things.
I have found the line and its direction is known to me.
Absolute trust keeps me going in the right direction.
Any intrusion is met with a heart full of the good thing.
Try to compare what i am presenting.
You will meet with much frustration.
Try to find ... similar situation.
You will always find the same solution.
As the heart finds the good thing, the feeling is multiplied.
Add the will to the strength and it equals conviction.
As we economise, efficiency is multiplied,
To the extent i am determined the result is the good thing.
So i say:
I have adopted this and made it my own:
Cut back the weakness, reinforce what is strong.

7. _ I'm Not In Love
...pretty!
What is? brand new? well that's not the way i think of you.
You'll touch me, in a minute; but that's not what i want to do.
We are two strangers,
We might never have met.
We can talk forever, i understand what you said.
But i'm...no in love.
What does it take to fall in love?
Do people really fall in love?
...happy!
Is there time for this? is this responsibility?
Girl time, boy time, is that the difference between me and you?
I won't ask any questions,
Who needs to make a new start?
I choose to believe you,
I said before that i can't.
...'cause i'm not in love.
What does it take to fall in love?
Why would i want to fall in love?
...feeling!
Take it easy baby...don't let your feelings get in the way.
Some day, i believe, we can live in a world without love.
I can answer your questions,
If you won't twist what i say.
Please respect my opinions,
They will be respected some day.
Because we don't need love.
I believe that we don't need love.
There'll come a day when we won't need love.

8. _ Take Me To The River
I don't know why i love her like i do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen the worst of it yet
I wanna know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Take me to the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down
I don't know why you treat me so bad
Think of all the things we could have had
Love is an ocean that i can't forget
My sweet sixteen i would never regret
I wanna know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Push me in the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me
Hug me, squeeze me, love me, tease me
Till i can't, till i can't, till i can't take no more of it
Take me to the water, drop me in the river
Push me in the water, drop me in the river
Washing me down, washing me down
I don't know why i love you like i do
All the troubles you put me through
Sixteen candles there on my wall
And here am i the biggest fool of them all
I wanna know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river and drop me in the water
Dip me in the river, drop me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down.

9. _ The Big Country
I see the shapes,
I remember from maps.
I see the shoreline.
I see the whitecaps.
A baseball diamond, nice weather down there.
I see the school and the houses where the kids are.
Places to park by the fac'tries and buildings.
Restaunts and bar for later in the evening.
Then we come to the farmlands, and the undeveloped areas.
And i have learned how these things work together.
I see the parkway that passes through them all.
And i have learned how to look at these things and i say,
(chorus)
I wouldn't live there if you paid me.
I couldn't live like that, no siree!
I couldn't do the things the way those people do.
I couldn't live there if you paid me to.
I guess it's healthy, i guess the air is clean.
I guess those people have fun with their neighbors and friends.
Look at that kitchen and all of that food.
Look at them eat it' guess it tastes real good.
They grow it in the farmlands
And they take it to the stores
They put it in the car trunk
And they bring it back home
And i say ...
(chorus)
I say, i wouldn't live there if you paid me.
I couldn't live like that, no siree!
I couldn't do the things the way those people do.
I wouldn't live there if you paid me to.
I'm tired of looking out the windows of the airplane
I'm tired of travelling, i want to be somewhere.
It's not even worth talking
About those people down there.

10. _ Thank You For Sending Me An Angel
Oh, oh, baby you can walk, you can talk just like me.
You can walk, you can talk just like me.
You can look, tell me what you see.
You can look, you won't see nothing like me
If you look around the world.
Oh, baby you can walk, you can talk just like me.
With a little practive, you can walk like, talk just like me.
If that's what you wanna do.
Well, you can look, you'll walk in circles around me.
But first, i'll walk in circles 'round you.
But first, i'll walk around the world.
I'm walking 'round the world
I ... you can.
But first, show me what you do.

11. _ Stay Hungry
I think that we can signify our love now,
Ooh girl, you can initiate an impulse of love.
Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry
Move a muscle, move a muscle, move a muscle.
Make a motion, make a motion, make a motion.
Pull it tighter, pull it tighter, pull it tighter.
Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin'
Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin'
Palpitation, palpitation, palpitation.
Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry.
Here's that rhythm again.
Here's my shoulder blade.
Here's the sound i made.
Here's the picture i saved.
Here i am.
