1. _ Warehouse
See i'm leaving
This warehouse frightens me
Has me tied up in knots
Can't rest for a moment
Soom i'm going i'm slippin' slow away
Hoping to find something better than
I've got inside of here
The warehouse slips away
Hey reckless mind
Don't throw away your playful beginning
You and i will fumble around in the touches
And be sure to
Leave all the lights on
So we can see the black cat changing colors
And we can walk under the ladders
And swim as the tide turns you around and around
Hey we have found
Becoming one in a million
Slip into the crowd
This question if found in a gap in the sidewalk
Keep al lyour sights on
He the black cat changing colors
And you can walk under ladders
And swim as the tide choose to turn you
And here is it
Life goes on, end of tunnel, tv set
Spot in the middle
State fade, statistical bit
And soon i'll fade away, i'll fade away
This i admit
Taste so good, hard to believe an end to it
Smell touch feel
How could this rhythm ever quit
Bags packed on a plane
Hopefully to heaven
Shut up i'm thinking
I had a clue now it's gone forever
Sitting over these bones
You can read in whatever you're needing to
Keep all your sights on
Yeah man, the black cat
Changing colors
When it's not the colors that matter
But that they'll all fade away
This i admit
Seems so good
Hard to believe an end to it
Warehouse is bare
Nothing at all inside of it
Walls and halls have disappeared
My love i love to stay here
My love i love to stay here
In a corner was wondering
If a change could be better than this
And then i worry
Maybe things won't be better than they have been
Here in the warehouse
At the warehouse
How i love to stay here
At the warehouse
Every man and woman
Get alive
That's our blood down there
Seems poured from the hands of angels
But trickle into the ground
Leaves the warehouse bare and empty
My heart's numbered beat
Still echoe in this empty room
Fear wells in me
But nothing seems enough to defend
So i am going away

2. _ Ants Marching
he wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling
Never changes a thing
The week ends the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
These crimes between us grow deeper
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns
He forgets them
And remembers being small
Playing under the table and dreaming
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Driving in on this highway
All these cars and upon the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged
No time to exchange
And all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennas waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way
Candyman tempting the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth tortured by the weight loss
Programs cutting the corners
Loose end, loose end, cut, cut
On the fence, could not to offend
Cut, cut, cut, cut
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die

3. _ Rhyme & Reason
Oh well oh well so here we stand
But we stand for nothing
My heart calls to me in my sleep
How can i turn to it
'cause i'm all locked up in this
Dark place--
And i do not know i'm as good as dead
My head aches--
Warped and tied up i need to kill this pain
My head won't leave my head alone
And i don't believe it will
Until i'm dead and gone
My head won't leave my head alone
And i don't believe it willl
Until i'm six feet under gound
How long i'm tied up
My mind in knots--
My stomach reels in concern for what i might do or
What i've done
It's got me living in fear
Well i know these voices must
Be my sould i've had my grave
Lying wired and shut and quiet in my grave
Leave me here
Leave it to me to waste here
So young and here i am again
Talking to myself
A tv blares
Oh man
Oh how i wish i didn't smoke
Or drink to reason with my head
But sometimes this thick confusion
Grows utnil i cannot bear it all
Needle to the vein
Needle to the vein
Take this needle from my vein my fiend
I said
In my grave
Lying, lying cold in my grave
The reason--my reason
Take my head off this terror
The fearing won't come back
I can't see my mind's all wiped clean
The needle
Make my great escape
I seem caught in time
My head leaves me behing
Body fall cold
And i have seen heaven

4. _ #34
oh, my head lay back on the seating
Been so tired, throw away my surrounding
Like the sun and moon take for granted
Soon we move through the flood and we fade away
Lie about it,
Cry about it,
We'll be ok
Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay
Oh, i lay myself at your feet laughing
Hope mine eye made of the soul choir
Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay
Lie about it,
Cry about it,
Soon fade away
Lie about it,
Cry about it,
We'll be okay
Lean upon me,
I'll lean upon you,
We'll be okay

5. _ Satellite
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How i wonder.
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Satellite, headlines read
Someone's secrets you've seen
Eyes and ears have been
Satellite dish in my yard
Tell me more, tell me more
Who's the king of your satellite castle?
Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no resrictions
Television we bounce 'round the world
And while i spend these hours
Five senses reeling,
I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes.
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How i wonder.
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restrictions
Television you bounce from the world
And while i spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about this world in my satellite eyes.

6. _ Typical Situation
ten fingers counting we have each |
7. _ Pay For What You Get
Work ourselves, fingers to the bone
Suck the morrow, drain my sould
Pay your dues, and your debts
Pay your repects, everybody tells you
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Has she really lost her mind?
I said, i couldn't tell you i've lost mine
Words, words, words have you heard
A bird in hand is much better than,
Any number free to wander
Fly away...
Stay
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Has she really lost her...
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Since she went away
I said i couldn't tell
I'm okay
I'm okay
I'm okay, how are you?
Pay for what you get...
Pay for what you get...oh...
Pay for what you get...
Pay for what you get...
Oh...

8. _ Jimi Thing
lately i've been feeling low
A remedy is what i'm seeking
I take a taste of whats below
Come away to something better
What i want is what i've not got
And what i need
Is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And i'll say...
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Till i get to the end of this tunnel mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
I'll get back to you
Sometimes a jimi thing slides my way and keeps me swinging
I'd like to show you what's inside
And i shouldn't care
If you don't like it
Brother chaos rule all about
Sometimes i walk there
Well yes god knows sometimes i take a bus there
Shouldn't care shouldn't care
Bereaved as i'm feeling
The day is gone
I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
U take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind make me feel
Better for a small time
What i want is what i've not got
And what i need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And i'll say...
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
Till i get to the end of this tunnel mommy
If you could keep me floating
Just for a while
I'll get back to you

9. _ Lover Lay Down
Spring sweet rhythm dance in my head
Slip into my lover's hands
Kiss me won't you kiss me now
And sleep i would inside your mouth
Don't be us too shy
Knowing it's no big surprise
That i will wait for you
I will wait for no one but you
Oh please lover lay down
Spend this time with me
Together share this smile
Lover lay down
Spend this time with me
Walk with me, walk with you
Hold my hands your hands
So much we have dreamed
And you were so much younger
Hard to explain that we are stronger
A million reasons life to deny
Let's toss them away
See you and me we
Lay down look see
She and he
By my lover's side
Together share this smile
Lover lay down
Oh please oh please
Please lover lay down
Oh please lover lay down
And you weep lover lay down
Cause it's over lover lay down
Say love, say love, say love, say love, say love
Could i love you
Could you love me
Darling it's all the same
'til we dance away
Chasing me all around
Leading me all around
Leading me all around in circles
Say.......

10. _ What Would You Say
Up and down the puppies' hair
Fleas and ticks jump everywhere
'cause of original sin
Down the hill fell jack and jill
And you came tumbling after
'cause of original sin
Rip away the tears
Drink a hope to happy years
And you may find
A lifetime's passed you by
What would you say
Don't drop the big one
If you a monkey on a string
Don't cut my lifeline
If you a doggie on a chain
Don't bite the mailman
What would you say
I was there when the bear
Ate his head, thought it was a candy
Everyone goes in the end
Knock knock on the door
Who's it for, there's nobody in here
Look in the mirror my freind
I don't understand at best
And connot speak for all the rest
The morning rise a lifetime's passed me by
Every dog has its day every day has its way
Of being forgotten
Mom it's my birthday
What would you say

11. _ Dancing Nancies
Could i have been
A parking lot attendant
Could i have been
A millionaire in bel air
Could i have been
Lost somewhere in paris
Could i have been
Your little brother
Could i have been anyone other than me
Could i have been oh, anyone other than me
Could i have been anyone
He stands touch his hair his shoes untied
Tongue gaping stare
Could i have been a magnet for money
Could i have been anyone other than me
Twenty three
I'm so tired of life
Such a shame to throw it all away
The images grow darker still
Could i have been anyone other then me?
Then i
Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, like and taste
What's the use in worrying, what's the use in hurrying
Turn turn we almost become dizzy
I am who i am who i am well who am i
Requesting some enlightenment
Could i have been anyone other than me?
And then i'll
Sing and dance and i'll play for you tonight
The thrill of it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But i'll work it out
And then i
Falling out of a world of lies
Could i have been dancing nancy
Dancing nancy
Could i have been anyone other than me?

12. _ The Best Of What's Around
Hey my freind
It seems your eyes are troubled
Care to share your time with me
Would you say you're feeling low and so
A good idea would be to get it off your mind
See, you and me
Have a better time than most can dream
Have it better than the best
So can pull on through
Whatever tears at us
Whatever holds us down
And if nothing can be done
We'll make the best of what's around
Turns out not where but who you're with
That really matters
And hurts not much when you're around
And if you hold on tight
To what you think is your thing
You may find you're missing all the rest
Well she run up into the light suprised
Her arms are open
Her mind's eye is
Seeing things from a
Better side than most can dream
On a clearer road i feel
Oh you could say she's safe
Whatever tears at her
Whatever holds her down
And if nothing can be done
She'll make the best of what's around
