Beside yourself if radio's gonna stay.
Reason: it could polish up the grey. Put that, put that, put that up your wall That this isn't country at all Raving station, beside yourself Keep me out of country in the word Deal the porch is leading us absurd. Push that, push that, push that to the hull That this isn't nothing at all. Straight off the boat, where to go? Calling on in transit, calling on in transit Radio Free Europe, radio... Beside defying media too fast Instead of pushing palaces to fall Put that, put that, put that before all That this isn't fortunate at all Raving station, beside yourself Calling on in transit, calling on in transit Radio Free Europe, radio... Decide yourself, calling all of the medias too fast Keep me out of country in the word Disappoint is into us absurd Straight off the boat, where to go? Calling on in transit, calling on in transit Radio Free Europe |

There she goes again
She's out on the street again She's down on her knees my friend Won't have to ask her please again Look a little closer there's no tears in her eyes You know she won't make it with just any guy What can you do See her walking down the street With all your friends she's gonna meet You'd better hit her |

Did you never call? I waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away The trees will bend, the cities wash away The city on the river there is a girl without a dream I'm sorry Eastern to Mountain, third party call, the lines are down The wise man built his words upon the rocks But I'm not bound to follow suit The trees will bend, the conversation's dimmed Go build yourself another home, this choice isn't mine Did you never call? I waited for your call These rivers of suggestion are driving me away The ocean sang, the conversation's dimmed Go build yourself another dream, this choice isn't mine |

Trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let, fifty cents No cars no pool no pets I ain't got no cigarettes It takes four hours of pushin' broom To buy a four-by-twelve two-bit room I'm a man of means, by no means King of the road version |

Looking at your watch a third time
waiting in the station for a bus Going to a place that's far, so far away and if that's not enough Going where nobody says hello, they don't talk to anybody they don't know You'll wind up in some factory that's full time filth and nowhere left to go Walk home to an empty house, sit around all by yourself I know it might sound strange, but I believe You'll be coming back before too long Don't go back to Rockville And waste another year At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend I don't care if you're not here with me 'Cause it's so much easier to handle All my problems if I'm too far out to sea But something better happen soon Or it's gonna be too late to bring you back It's not as though I really need you If you were here I'd only bleed you But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and That's not how it ought to be I know it might sound strange, but I believe You'll be coming back before too long |

Ooooo, we were little boys
Ooooo, we were little girls It's nine o'clock, don't try to turn it off Cowered in a hole, opie mouth. Question: Did we miss anything? Did we miss anything? Did we miss anything? Did we miss anything? Catapult. Catapult. Catapult. Catapult. Ooooo, we were little boys Ooooo, we were little girls It's nine o'clock, don't try to turn it off Cowered in a hole, opie mouth. We in step, in hand, your mother remembers this. Hear the howl of the rope, a question: Did we miss anything? Did we miss anything? Did we miss anything? Did we miss anything? Catapult. Catapult. Catapult. Catapult. March could be darker. March could be darker. Catapult. Catapult. Catapult. Catapult. (Repeat 2nd verse) |

Come on aboard, I promise you you won't hurt the horse
We treat him well, we feed him well. There's lots of room for you on the bandwagon, The road may be rough, the weather may forget us But won't we all parade around and sing our songs, a magic kingdom, open-armed Greet us hello, bravo, name in lights Passing on the word to fellow passengers and players, passing in, Until you're tired looking at all the flags And all the banners waving This is some parade, yesiree Bob. Could we have known? Yesiree Bob, could we have known? Look at all the flags and all the banners waving. Open up our arms, a magic kingdom, open-armed and greet us all Come on aboard I promise you you won't hurt the horse We treat him well, we feed him well There's lots of room for you on the bandwagon The road may be rough, the weather may forget us But won't we all parade around and sing our songs and wave our flags. A magic kingdom, greet us all hello, greet us hello, greet us hello. |

That's when Wendell Gee takes a tug
Upon the string that held the line of trees Behind the house he lived in He was reared to give respect But somewhere down the line he chose To whistle as the wind blows Whistle as the wind blows, with me He had a dream one night That the tree had lost its middle So he built a trunk of chicken wire To try to hold it up But the wire, the wire turned to lizard skin And when he climbed inside There wasn't even time to say Goodbye to Wendell Gee So whistle as the wind blows Whistle as the wind blows, with me If the wind were colors And if the air could speak Then whistle as the wind blows Whistle as the wind blows |

There's a problem, feathers iron
Bargain buildings, weights and pulleys Feathers hit the ground before the weight can leave the air Buy the sky and sell the sky and tell the sky and tell the sky Don't fall on me (What is it up in the air for) (It's gonna fall) Fall on me (If it's there for long) (It's gonna fall) Fall on me (It's over it's over me) (It's gonna fall) There's the progress we have found (when the rain) A way to talk around the problem (when the children reign) Building towered foresight (keep your conscience in the dark) isn't anything at all (melt the statues in the park) Buy the sky and sell the sky and bleed the sky and tell the sky (repeat chorus) Don't fall on me Well I could keep it above But then it wouldn't be sky anymore So if I send it to you you've got to promise to keep it whole Buy the sky and sell the sky and lift your arms up to the sky And ask the sky and ask the sky (repeat chorus, etc.) |

This one goes out to the one I love
This one goes out to the one I've left behind A simple prop to occupy my time This one goes out to the one I love Fire (she's comin' down on her own, now) This one goes out to the one I love This one goes out to the one I've left behind Another prop has occupied my time This one goes out to the one I love |

He's not to be reached, he's to be reached.
He's not to be reached, he's to be reached. Called the fool and the company, On his own where he'd rather be. Where he ought to be, he sees what you can't see, can't you see that? Maybe he's caught in the legend, maybe he's caught in the mood. Maybe these maps and legends have been misunderstood. Down the way the road's divided, Paint me the places you have seen. Those who know what I don't know refer to the yellow, red and green Maybe he's caught in the legend, maybe he's caught in the mood. Maybe these maps and legends have been misunderstood. He's not to be reached, he's to be reached. (4 times) The map that you painted didn't seem real. He just sings whatever he's seen Point to the legend, point to the east, Point to the yellow, red and green Maybe he's caught in the legend, maybe he's caught in the mood. Maybe these maps and legends have been misunderstood, been misunderstood. (Maps and legends) (Maps and legends) Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached. (Maps and legends) Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached. (Maps and legends) Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached anymore. |

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and
snakes, an aeroplane and Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. Feed it off an aux speak, grunt, no, strength, Ladder start to clatter with fear fight down height. Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site. Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped. Look at that low playing! Fine, then. Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right, right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine. Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign towers. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn. Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down. Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh, this means no fear cavalier. Renegade steer clear! A tournament, tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine. The other night I dreamt of knives, continental drift divide. Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs. Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine...fine... (It's time I had some time alone) |

The time to rise has been engaged
You're better best to rearrange I'm talking here to me alone I listen to the finest worksong Your finest hour Another chance has been engaged To throw Thoreau and rearrange You are following this time I beg you not beg to rhyme (blow your horn) Your finest hour (blow your horn) Take your instinct by the reins Your better best to rearrange What we want and what we need Has been confused been confused (blow your horn) Your finest hour (blow your song) Take your instinct by the reins Better best to rearrange What we want and what we need Has been confused been confused (blow your horn) Your finest hour (blow your song) Your finest hour (blow your horn) Your finest hour (blow your song) Your finest hour |

Ask the girl of the hour
by the water tower's watch If your friends took a fall, are you obligated to follow Time after time after time when the bull's on his hooves, when you gather friends by the tower If you try to refuse, will they judge your worth by the hour? If your tired and you're tried you can find me in my room You can stay if you want and the third time you can't lose Ask the girl of the hour, by the water tower's watch We can fight if you want but who will turn out the light |
