Track Name: Every Little Piece
You’re sitting ‘round by the 7-11
Drinking cola and a’ talking tough

I’m cotton mouthed
At the sight of your sweetness
And I know you’re gonna call my bluff

Ooo ooo ooo
You look like somebody
That the whole wide world could love

Ooo Ooo Ooo
I really am nobody
That is, nobody to speak of

It’s a mighty funny way to start
Why did I give you every piece of my heart?
When I know you’re gonna tear it apart
Oh if I could have you
For only just a moment
I’d live like a second
Was more like forever
And a day

You’re singing songs
Like you’re making an album
With Lindsey and the Fleetwood Mac

You’re laying down at the foot of my sofa
Drawing circles right on my back

Ooo Ooo Ooo
You say that we’re friendly
I’d say that we are more than that

Ooo Ooo Ooo
The space in between us
Tells me right where we are a
Track Name: Setting Sun
Will it be special?
Will it be cruel?
Will you see Jesus?
Will he see you?

Will you want a ventilator?
Will you want the machines?
Will you pay for it later?
Do we know what that means?

It’s just the setting sun
Why does it make you blue?
You’re not the only one
It’s gonna happen to

Will you be sleeping?
Will you be in love?
Will you get a reminder?
Or will you get a shove?

Will it happen tomorrow?
Agonal at sunrise.
Do you want to see it coming?
Or do you want a surprise?

I get all tangled up and worried about it
I know you worry too
I guess when we finally close our eyes
Our worries will be through

Will you fight it like a tiger?
Will you let it come sweet
You are so very shy, girl
Will you fear the release?
Track Name: Lester Bangs
Play tangerines
Play the songs
For the bums and tweekers

Oooo……Feel the fuzz
Squeeze the juice
From those orange speakers

I’m alive
When I play that music
Don’t you know

It’s revived
A quiet heart
It told me so
It told me so

Baby, Lester Bangs told me you and me could (we could learn the) rock and roll
Pick up your guitar ‘cause it’s better when it’s all home grown
Mama told me so

I love the glow
Love the smell
Of those tubes and wires

I’ll fall asleep
With my head
On the amplifiers

We don’t get paid
We don’t need love
We don’t need food

We won’t get laid
We came to play
We came to groove

Baby, Lester Bangs told me you and me could (we could learn the) rock and roll
Pick up your guitar ‘cause it’s better when it’s all home grown
Yeah, it’s better than a heaven that we ain’t a gonna get to know

We do it cause we love it, we do it cause it’s in our soul
It’s in our soul
Mama told me so

Oh, Fender amps
Vibro champs
It’s electric sunshine

Oh, Marshall stacks
Backward tracks
It’s a super fun time
Track Name: When You're Down
Adam called me yesterday just to show he cares
Susan’s stopping by to help me rearrange my chairs
All my friends take comfort in my lonely company
My mother checks in twice a day before she’s had her tea

Everybody’s happy when I’m around
Cause everybody loves you when you’re down

Some folks need a ruler just to measure their own nose
Some folks need a metric to fee l happy in their clothes
Friendly people come my and bask in their own glow
Ask me if I’m feeling fine and if I’ve learned to cope

Everybody’s happy when I’m around
Cause everybody loves you when you’re down

Everybody loves you when you’re down and oout you know
When you’re picking up the pieces of your broken heart and soul
Thery invite me to their parties just to make themselves feel good
And everybody tells me I look better than I should

All my friend take comfort in my lonely company
My mother checks in twice a day before she’s had her tea

Everybody’s happy when I’m around
Cause everybody loves you when you’re down
Everybody’s happy when I’m around
Cause everybody loves you when you’re down
Track Name: Go Nowhere
Spent some days down in Tucson, Arizona
Making some time with a jukebox jackpot gal
Rolled my way down to Southern California
And slept in the arms of rambler and a ranger pal

I’m looking for place that’s still
With clear-eyed girls and daffodils
I’m looking for a place where I can ease my mind

Oh, I wanna go nowhere
Into the wind, on the take, on a tear
I just feel asleep
Into a deep narcotic dream
And it’s easy
To believe in
Yes there’s somewhere
I can breathe in

Stopped for drink outside of Macon, Georgia
Met with some friends who only made me feel more alone
Sat right there and drank down a Coca-cola
It was sweet for a moment but now that moment is gone

(Man I never get no rest?)
I’m running like a man possessed
With finding hope and happiness
Somewhere ‘round the corner and down the line
(Around the corner and further on down the line
(With a notion of some happiness I just can’t find)

Oh, I wanna go nowhere
Into the sea, in the sun, in the air
I just feel asleep
Into a deep narcotic dream
And it’s something
That I’m hearing
Oh I feel like
Disappearing

Maybe I’ve got it wrong
Maybe I’ve got it right
Baby how am I gonna sleep
When my head is so uptight?
Track Name: Sunday's Not So Bad
The morning made liar
Of the clean and true words you said the night before
You made yourself a fire
And built an effigy of cigarettes and alcohol

I know you’re bad / I know you
Say you won’t be sorry someday
Say you won’t be sad
Say that I’m your kind of habit
Sunday’s not so bad

It’s gasoline you favor
It burns clean enough to run the engine true girl
Your mouth is sweet to savor
It tastes dangerous when you let your tongue through

I know you’re bad / I know you
Say you won’t be sorry someday
Say you won’t be sad
Say that I’m your kind of habit
Sunday’s not so bad

You say you like my color
I’m the blueset boy, bluer than you’ve ever seen
Hold my breath forever
Waiting for your go light, waiting for your go light
Green, go green

Say you won’t be sorry someday
Say you won’t be sad
Say that I’m your kind of habit
Sunday’s not so bad
Track Name: New York City's Not Alright
You said you wanted some rock and roll distance
You said you wanted just to be left alone
You said you met upon too much resistance
But nobody really knows where you’ve been
They tell me you’ve been gone with the wind
Nobody really knows where you’ve been

You’ve buried yourself down deep in the burrough
A pretty girl whose come into her own
Don’t you know I’m that gonna be thorough
And search every club on the scene
I’ll look inside each magazine
Oooh, I need my peaches and cream

New York City’s not alright with me
It’s taken all my friends into the make believe
Vampires on the bus
Man, they’ll make you bleed
You virgins are the fuss of the bourgeoisie

It takes a man just to say that he’s sorry
It takes a man just to let well alone
I’ve seen your sky and I know that it’s starry
Baby you’ve got gold in your shins
Babe you’ve got original sins
Held together with diamond pins

I’ve been uptown and the city is maddening
A million pieces that move on their own
I swear to God that I don’t know what’s happening
This place can’t be good for your soul
This place is gonna take it’s own toll
And baby it’s swallowed you whole

New York City’s not alright with me
It’s taken all my friends into the make believe
Vampires on the bus
Man, they’ll make you bleed
You virgins are the fuss of the bourgeoisie
Track Name: Summer Bummer
So slow
I feel listless
I got up to pile of dishes
It’s been weeks since I’ve been feeling OK

Sunset
Feel the splendor
I’m eating dinner from a candy dispenser
I wake up to see I slept through the day

Oooo summer
Oooo bummer
You know we need to take the medicine
I say we are the innocents
You know we need to take our medicine
You know we are the ones

Oh my
It’s all so hazy
The summer sun makes me feel so lazy
With my porcelain face, I’m a vampire in the light

The Beach Boys
Sound ironic
We’re gonna mix ourselves a gin and tonic
And shutter up the windows just to lock in the night

Lovers float in the salt of the sea
People soak up the glorious heat
All the kids sing in fine harmony
But that’s not for me

Oooo summer
Oooo bummer
You know we need to take the medicine
I say we are the innocents
You know we need to take our medicine
You know we are the ones
Track Name: Interstellar Pioneer
I’m a gonna stay in my room
I’m a gonna stay ‘til the the dawn
I’m a gonna shoot for the moon
Baby, let’s get real gone

I was born to ride on the thunder
And to drink up the rain
But I was born in a world without wonder
Where the sun is explained

They keeping us comfortable
They keeping us free of fear
But baby we’ll take a trip
‘Cause we’re the Interstellar Pioneers

Chemistry has made me a savior
And it’s made you one too
Father’s worried about my behavior
What are you gonna do?

I don’t wanna go to work
I want a new frontier
We can buy it by the pound
‘Cause we’re the Interstellar Pioneers

Oh we’re gonna blaze through the sky
Oh we’ll leave the world behind/Oh we’re gonna have some fun
Mama likes the look in my eyes
When they get that special shine/Mama this is how it’s done

Son, you gotta work!

I’m a gonna stay in my room
Maybe we can play it by ear
I’m a gonna shoot for the moon
Baby, we’re the interstellar pioneers
Track Name: Back To The Land
Mother nature is tired of your silly games
You know you’ve all been warned
There’s nothing meaner than a mother wronged like that
And a woman scorned
She’s building her whole holy arsonel of wind and waves
She’s building her bombs out of chamomile

Maybe it’s time you got way down on your knees
The sea will sweep your houses back to the sand
The flowers are taking your children back to the land

She’s coming for you and your womenfolk
You’re all compost and ditch
She’s cutting he losses starting now
Cause payback is a bitch
Don’t you know this time that it’s personal, you’ve cut it too deep
She’s sneaking around the corner now

With her jasmine shears she’s playing for keeps
Oh she’ll be a lady when she slices your hand
The flowers are taking your children back to the land

The sea will sweep your houses back to the sand
The flowers are taking your children back to the land
Track Name: Nail Biter
Leave, leave what you know
At the door with your bags and your overcoat
Strip right down to your cell
And bathe in the healing waters of our hell

Clear, clear your brain
Cause your alabaster skin is like cellophane
Barely holding in your pleasure and your pain
It will be hard but you’ll find you’l find yourself again

What you need is a stabilizer
Something to push in your head
We all know you’re a real nail biter
Your cuticles are raw and red

Life, lay right on in
We’ve prepared the warmest pool of the medicine
It’s made of hope and gelatin
Let’s all breathe out the doubt that lies within

Feel, feel the light
Now your technicolor dreams have all turned to white
And you’ve learned to tell the wrong things from the right
And you’ll rid yourself of the nasties in the night

What you need is a stabilizer
Something to push in your head
We all know you’re a real nail biter
Your cuticles are raw and red

A head full of stars you got a galaxy in your mind – yeah
You feel up and down and sometimes a waste of time – yeah
We have just the pill that will keep your demons in line – yeah
There’s a little dry mouth but soon you’ll be feeling fine my friend
Track Name: You Are A Winner
It’s a hummer
In the summer
When the world begins

Oh elation
The vibrations
Make you want to spin

You are a winner
You are a beginner

You’re perfection
A confection
Sugar cane, it’s true

You can capture
All the rapture
With your eyes of blue

Pretty pictures
On the fixtures
Fill the living room

Kiss your mother
Kiss your brother
Kiss your daddy too

You are a winner
You are a beginner
You are a winner
You are a beginner
