Of all the people I've known
This one, you, you really hit home Half a dozen of one thing And a decade of another You tried to change the time When you stole it from your mother I'd put my hat on my head if I had one Lord knows what he's got in store Everything is shaped by a cross And you'd do as easy as the next one Better open my eyes now Everything at the door Best keep my eyes closed I want to see the lights of Elenore Of all the people left unknown You taught me how to be alone Elenore Moth-god, daughter of the hot-rod Light like liquid moss covers up The gray hard rock |

Lost on the freeway again
Lookin' for means to an end Nobody knows which way it's gonna bend Lost on the freeway again Walkin' the breezeways again Lookin' for something my friend I've grown tired of living Nixon's mess Walkin' the breezeways again I know there'll come a day When you say that you don't know me I know there'll come a time When there's nothing anybody owes me anymore Locked in the attic again Out of the shallow and into the deep end I've got a wound I know will never mend Locked in the attic again I know there'll come a day When you say that you don't know me I know there'll come a time When there's nothing anybody owes me anymore |

Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands There's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop And an illustrated book about birds You see a lot up there but don't be scared Who needs actions when you got words When you're finished with the mop then you can stop And look at what you've done The plateau's clean no dirt to be seen And the work it took was fun There's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop And an illustrated book about birds You see a lot up there but don't be scared Who needs actions when you got words Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau Some said it was Greenland and some said Mexico Some decided it was nowhere except for where they stood But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could |

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly They go to the lake of fire and fry Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July I knew a lady who lived in Duluth She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth She went to her grave a little too soon And she flew away howling at the yellow moon Where do bad folks go when they die? They don't go to heaven where the angels fly They go to the lake of fire and fry Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July Now the people cry and the people moan And they look for a dry place to call their home And try to find someplace to rest their bones While the angels and the devils fight to claim them for their own Where do bad folks go when they die? They don't go to heaven where the angels fly They go to the lake of fire and fry Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July |

It's the shadow in the dark
it's the silver in the park it's the broken, faded bird you've learned to call your heart it's not a border that you can see just as plain as you or me i can't throw the lock back and i don't have the key it hovers in the living room just above the door it whistles while it hangs there feathers dripping from every pore they show the spectacle of falling and settle to the floor |

A long time ago
I turned to myself And said "You are my daughter" I saw that the image I saw there was well "So you are my daughter" Well then maybe we've got something to talk about Who told you so? That gold burns slow Like coal camper's candles all lost in the snow Lay down, you're on The warmth that I'm weaving is for you alone Up on the sun Where it never rains or snows There's an ocean With a wind that never blows And if you see it closer Then the finer points will show Not too much more Too much more Up on the sun Where it never rains or snows There's an ocean With a wind that never blows And if you see it closer Then the finer points will show Not too much more Too much more |

The sun is up and beating down
It's hot enough to melt the ground A little water would do us good The clouds would help us if they could They'd send showers of pouring rain Get everything wet again We could go and float around In our favorite swimming ground The best place I ever found Wasn't close to any town Was a little swimming ground Everything just floating around Out to lunch and out of town It's pretty close to falling down A little water would do us good The clouds would help us if they could They'd send showers of pouring rain Get everything wet again We could go and float around In our favorite swimming ground The best place I ever found Wasn't close to any town Was a little swimming ground Everything just floating around The sun is up and beating down It's hot enough to melt the ground A little water would do us good The clouds would help us if they could They'd send showers of pouring rain Get everything wet again We could go and float around In our favorite swimming ground The best place I ever found Wasn't close to any town Was a little swimming ground Everything just floating around The best place I ever found Wasn't close to any town Was a little swimming ground Everything just floating around |

Two rivers rolling by
Two waters side by side Never touching they remain Two rivers different names When they meet the waters change Two rivers one name River flows with many names Water leading water's aim Finding ways to change again Finding yet another name Water leading water's aim Two rivers rolling by Two waters side by side Two rivers rolling by |

Out my way
Days turns days Days in grace Out my way Blue hands face Good night's lace Out in storms Lights embrace Down in its cave My heart lays Its own sun Lights the day |

I lost my mind a couple of gals ago
I left behind, never saw it go Just a little bit of snow out on the leaves Just confusion drifting swirling to my knees I took the time a couple of days ago To cross my mind, the only thing I know Just a little bit of snow out on the leaves Just confusion drifting swirling to my knees Blue wind drift on Blow through till the dust is gone Gone, confusion fog I drove too fast, hit the brakes too soon I broke my wheels, blew my afternoon There's just a little bit of snow out on the leaves Just confusion drifting swirling to my knees Blue wind drift on Blow through till the dust is gone Gone, confusion fog I took the time, they never saw it go I left behind the only thing I know Just a little bit of snow out on the leaves Just confusion drifting swirling to my knees Blue wind drift on Blow through till the dust is gone Gone, confusion fog Blue wind drift on Blow through till the dust is gone Gone, confusion fog |

Way off down the road
There comes Wagon Red Found himself a nickel Went straight to his head Get on down Get on down Get on down Whoa I looked out my window I saw Medium Joe Lighting both ends of his candle Glowing from head to toe Get on down Get on down Get on down Whoa New car cherry tomato Pulled off all the doors Pulled off the steering wheel Got the pedal taped to the floor Get on down Get on down Get on down Whoa Get on down Get on down Get on down Whoa Get on down Get on down Get on down Whoa Get on down Get on down Get on down Whoa |

Been down to the corner
About once or twice I don't know but it's been nice I ain't got no money I can't buy a damn thing That I might like Let's go down to the dime store One some moonless night And look at the rain I got a shirt that costs a dollar twenty-five I know I'm the best dressed man alive I put it on and head down to the local dive To put the icing on extraordinary rides When I am done I leave em happy but insane For to look at the rain I'm a messed up torn down Worthless bag of trouble I take way too much And I get right in your hair I got a real sharp pin With which to burst your bubble This is trouble distribution And I'm giving you your share Won't tell you nothing cause that's my aim But I love the rain |

Let me see everything
Let me live forever Give me wings and show me how To control the weather Give me the mountains Give me the sea And build a mighty tower Especially for me Fill the tower up with food The kind I love to eat Send a couple maidens With soft hands to rub my feet Give me superhuman strength To wipe out what is wrong Give me all of everything I've wanted for so long Unearthly visions filled my head As I lay there and sexy music Tumbled all around And then the music turned to Emerald feathered goblins That cast their burning pearls To the ground Hot as the sun The red rubber fountain of ecstasy Flows from the palms of my hands Like the wind Hot as the sun |

Fiery spider
Candy stars in bloom Crystal fire fractures Sparks into the room Shadow seams have opened Right inside the blaze to Catch the spinning Light Flaming river Burning in the sky Falls in silence Over land to dry Gathering the elephants Turning light to day Beneath the current Light Luminescence Essence of the will Time and fire Turning burning still Upon the hour table Dreams of light are laid But I'm not sleeping Light |

I see it, I get it, to find it below
You know me, your fire, but I can't let go In silence through canyons of motion we start Beyond us these motions emerge from the dark Now I'm tied up in circles So I won't fall apart Tied up and tangled strings on your heart It's clouded in mystery surrounding your heart It stumbles to finish before it can start In silence, through canyons of motion we start Beyond us these motions emerge from the dark Now I'm tied up in circles So I won't fall apart Tied up and tangled strings on your heart Strings on your heart I see it, the emotions surrounding your heart I get it to stumble before it can start Beyond us through canyons of motion we start Beyond us through canyons emerge from the dark Now I'm tied up in circles So I won't fall apart Tied up and tangled strings on your heart Now I'm tied up in circles So I won't fall apart Tied up and tangled strings on your heart Strings on your heart |

It's out of wire
It's under grown It's out of line It's just a question Of what you know Meltdown Too good, too real Five aces, a square deal Meltdown It's what it is N' what it's not And all in all It's just a question Of what you got Meltdown |

Back before the days, back before the water
The invisible waves slammed the primal notion They said you were wrong, though you had connected These watery songs cleverly perfected [Chorus] Dispensary of predictable mind Like a new leaf, from the old days Unfolding now the most ridiculous mind Like a new leaf in the old ways These slippery shoes never fit the sailor All scattered and bruised since it left the railing It wouldn't behave, bad at problem solving So it couldn't be saved, all these things revolving [Chorus] Back before the days, back before the water The invisible waves slapped the primal notion They wouldn't behave, bad at problem solving So it couldn't be saved, all these things revolving [Chorus: x3] |
