Riff me outa this galaxy
Power chord me to ecstacy
Pound that beat into my brain
Roll me girl til I'm in pain (insane)
Zeta Zeta Zeta Reticuli
If the gods are blazing lights in the sky
I wanna kiss this planet goodbye
Warp me into the big black hole
Rape my ears and molest my soul
Heave my body towards the sun
Ride me into oblivion
Zeta Zeta Zeta Reticuli
If the gods are blazing lights in the sky
I wanna kiss this planet goodbye
Spaceship landing on the tarmac
They show Betty and Barney a starmap
Upon a star baby I do wish
Don't you dare debunk Marjorie Fish
solo
Use me, girl, and release my steam
Let me play in your wildest dream
anyway that you wan' me to
I'll rock you, girl, til your face is blue
Zeta Zeta Zeta Reticuli
If the gods are blazing lights in the sky
I wanna kiss this planet goodbye
Zeta Zeta Zeta Reticuli
If the gods are blazing lights in the sky
I wanna kiss this planet goodbye

Squawkin' at my face
Has it only been an hour
since you came and took my time away ?
If you were in my place
would your ears be cauliflower ?
Well at any rate I'm sure you would not want to stay
And you wanna know why I argue
You should see what you are saying
And you wanna know why I argue
I disproved that point before
in the very first 2 minutes
Oh, you seem to have a listening impediment
This is not a tug of war
but you seem to want to win it
Later when I'm gone, you'll wonder where the answers went
And you wanna know why I argue
Are you hearing what I'm saying ?
And you wanna know why I argue
Who gave you my number ?
Please don't call me here no more
It seems the time has come for me to throw that damn phone right into the lake
Oh you spout off anything
so I get to watch your brain work
Let me tell you, it is not a pretty sight to see
You get off on arguing
but your words are just a kneejerk
Sometimes you don't even know it if we do agree
And you wanna know why I argue
Do you see your branches swaying ?
And you wanna know why I argue
And you wanna know why I argue
Do you feel your edges fraying ?
And you wanna know why I argue

Until We See The Sun
03:20

oh the roar of the train, I can hear it in the distance
and it's gettin' louder, louder all the time
Train will pull up to the station in a matter of moments
I know that I'll be there when it arrives
Though you wonder sometimes, still I know you'll be there with me
When the whistle blows we'll walk on hand in hand
Fear will fade from our eyes when that engine starts a rollin'
and the past will never show its face again
So we're on our way - there's no time left for waiting
It's midnight and we're riding on til dawn
and we won't rest until we see the sun
oh the sound of your voice, it is never a whisper
but inside the woman hides a little girl
and when she talks to me, oh you know I can't resist her
She and I just stay inside our little world
With the Pennsylvania Railroad I can hardly hear you screaming
Is it just the raging storm before the calm?
We must keep pushing on, just get past all the distractions
Nothing matters now except the path we're on
Let's be on our way - there's no time left for waiting
It's midnight and we're riding on til dawn
no we won't rest until we see the sun
solo
When I think about my life, all the things that I'd do over
There is one that could never quite include
It's this road we been on oh for what a thousand years
that put us both on this wild avenue
God we struggled like dogs just to make it to the New Years
All our ups and downs were framed as mostly downs
and the snow starts to melt as the ice floats down the river
and winter made believers of us all
Let's be on our way - there's no time left for waiting
It's midnight and we're riding on til dawn
no we won't rest until we see the sun

Feuilles (Can't Wait)
02:43

Are you waiting for all the leaves to die
or just stopping to watch another century go by
I'm tired of waiting for the change of season
The second hand is quicker than this lie
If you think that you need some reason
I'm afraid you just won't qualify
You know the truth is glowing in your hand
but you still live in that neverneverland
Cash in your kingdom, buy a one way ticket
Let em shove their knowledge in the sand
If you care then you can lick it
It could cost more than you had planned
Can't Wait
You know that I can't wait
Finally it is the time to get away
Simple sentiments are easier to say
Brighter colors in the sun
and the sky is clearer day to day
A pair of aces on the run
and we waited all too long to play

Memory Girl

I know I know I know I know I know
this time it wasn't my fault
You're cryin' You're cryin' You're cryin' You're cryin' You're cryin'
about that memory you caught
Let it pass Let it pass
I know that you believe
that you can will things different
but I'm tryin' to tell ya don't be so hard on yourself
that's not right now, it isn't
Only a memory baby
Yesterday's a long long time ago
Only a memory baby
Ya can't dwell on certain things that hurt you so
How many old tears are you carrying with you?
So sad to see what those memories can do
So sad So sad So sad So sad So sad
the way the world's treated you
I know I know I'd have trouble taking
all the things that you been through
Move on move on you've thought a thousand times
about that situation
One thing I'll you for sure
is that you can't go back,
that's just a bad temptation
Only a memory baby
Yesterday's a long long time ago
Only a memory baby
No use remembering the times you need not know
How many old fears are you carrying with you?
So sad to see what those memories can do
Let it pass Let it pass
I know that you believe
your worries matter
but I'm tryin' to tell you
it's just a matter of time before your past will scatter
Only a memory baby
Yesterday's a long long time ago
Only a memory baby
Now I get your pain but hey that's over though
How many old tears are you carrying with you?
So sad to see what those memories can do
Only a memory girl
Don't let the here and now be the thing you're missing
Only a memory girl
Don't waste your good time reminiscing

Mistake

Gonna get past all my cares or I’m gonna go crazy
Gonna leave this life behind, yeah I’m gonna take stock
Gotta wipe out all the complications that ruin me
Oh I won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the lame mistake again
Gotta find some kind of focus a proper direction
As I push away distractions that waste all my time
My life has been a batch of unfortunate detours
but I won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
I’m not the kind of person that tends to regret shit
Yet it feels like a life of opportunities lost
Is it even possible that I might change things
if I don’t make the same mistake again
don’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again
won’t make the same mistake again

I been known to throw in my 2 cents
I really try to lay it out there, I know it gets intense
Wait for you to answer but the cat has got your tongue
An empty look comes on your face then, so i guess the jury’s hung
There’s a lull in the conversation
There’s a lull in the conversation
There’s a lull in the conversation
without your participation
Online, someone’s starting up with me
Once they’re past the hi, how are you, there is nothing else to see
Another bore who can’t hold up their end
Block their ass for my time wasted, I’m unable to pretend
I am left to wonder where the smart people have gone
This is why I just be by myself
For the most part, dialogue is dead
They call it social media, but I’d rather wank my crank instead
Are you at a loss for words again?
Or you share your one note life now, all in all you ain’t no friend
There’s a lull in the conversation
There’s a lull in the conversation
There’s a lull in the conversation
Know the value of communication

Lookin' For A Woman

Lookin' For A Woman Lookin For A Woman
Not some little girl, no I'm in it for the long run
Do you have any suggestions
Send her over I might have a couple of questions
I'm lookin', I'm lookin', I'm lookin'
I'm lookin for a woman
One who shows all the colors of life
I don't need a mother, nor do I need a wife
Lookin' For A Woman Lookin For A Woman
Sometimes we think about not doin' what we oughta
s'best we fly loose as a goose, stand up for yourself and don't take no abuse
Do you feel that good about your truth
that you think you can withstand
all the bullshit in their cannister
if so, good for you
Lookin' For A Woman Lookin For A Woman
not a superstar, I need for her to like me
Do you have soul superpowers
Lay down on your bed, and I bet we'd talk for hours
solo
Do you feel so good about your choice
that you won't be turning back
when the upcoming shoe does drop
or is your aim untrue?
Lookin' For A Woman Lookin For A Woman
I was thinkin' about myself, and
where I hope to be goin'
Do you have any reflections
or are ya just needin' to be pointed in any direction?
I'm lookin', I'm lookin', I'm lookin'
I'm lookin for a woman
One who wields all the forces of life
Call her my lover or call her my wife

Contrary Wind
03:28

I may not be Nostradamus but there's one thing I can promise
There's no way this quiet calm is gonna turn into a storm
It's a cold sea of stagnation and this time I won't be patient
No, I'm starting my migration while the weather is yet warm
I will flee using oars in a contrary wind
and when I reach the distant shore, I won't be sorry that I did
There's a place I can go that it just won't matter where I've been
Watch these oars make great big ripples in that water
I'll paddle to the point of violence to explore elusive islands
In this soup there is a silence, almost more than I can stand
So I have to keep on rowing, though I don't know where I'm going
I can taste that stale breeze blowing but my eyes can see no land
I will flee using oars in a contrary wind
and when I reach the distant shore, I won't be sorry that I did
I must not drift along with the flow, I can't give in
Nor can I yield to the temptation of safe harbor
Oh my arms they are exhausted, but I've left the past behind
Hey no matter what I've lost, at least I'll have this chance to see what I can find
I may not be Nostadamus but I'm not a doubting Thomas
I predict that I might change this rather ordinary day
into one that just might matter
finally the boredom shattered
Though my clothes may come out tattered
I'd surely relish the disarray
I will flee using oars in a contrary wind
and when I reach the distant shore, I won't be sorry that I did
There's a place I can go that it just won't matter where I've been
Watch these oars make great big ripples in that water
Yeah, I'll make some giant ripples in that water
and tomorrow the chances are I'll be rowing farther
