TELL YOUR DREAMS TO ME

I want to hit that on a star, let’s make love under the sea
I want to bang you on the moon, well, you asked my fantasy
I want to drink on party mountain, watch you plant your money tree
Now, darlin’ tell your dreams to me
Tell your dreams to me, then fade to black
Knowing thee Witches of Venus got your back
Should I be the first who passes out, feel no doubt
You're still the one I'd dream about
I want to write your name in stars, rearrange the galaxies
I want to bang near a black hole to test escape velocity
Tell the Pillars of Creation not to shine as bright as she
Your turn, tell your dreams to me
Tell your dreams to me, for all I lack
I might one day win the chance to get you back
Should I be the one to let us down, I’ll tell you now
You’re still the one I’d dream about
I want to hit that on a star, let’s make love under the sea
I want to bang you on the moon, hey, you asked my fantasy
I want to drink on party mountain, watch you plant your honey tree
Your turn, tell your dreams to me…
Darlin’, tell your dreams to me
(standing ovation)

OH GIRL, YOU'VE GOT TO LET IT GO
YOU LOVE ME STILL, I'M LETTING YOU KNOW
Ah the hell I do, what's wrong with you?
Stop holding what you're holding on to
Why do you keep on trying
Acting sly when I don't give a god damn?
I NEED A LOVE AS BAD OR WORSE THAN I AM
Oh boy, you've got the nerve to say
The things you say, are a curse to me, you
Have the courtesy to go away
You're old and I'm too cold to be true
Why do the tides all come to life
To watch the oceans try to touch the moon's hand?
I NEED A LOVE AS BAD OR WORSE THAN I AM
I BET IT RAINS DOWN ON OUR WEDDING DAY
FOR SEVEN WEEKS, WE'LL FLOAT AWAY TO
BE THE FIRST TO TRY AND TOUCH THE SKY
WE'RE CLOSER NOW, IT SEEMS SOMEHOW TRUE
Boy, you've lost your mind. Stop.
Understand that I don't give a god damn
I NEED A LOVE AS BAD OR WORSE THAN I AM
DON'T TELL THE DEAF, "LISTEN FOR DEATH"
WE AIM TO EFF WITH THE INEFFABLE AGAIN
SHE'D BEEN FILLING UP THE VOID WITH OTHER DUDES
IT AIN'T SAD IT AIN'T RUDE
He'd been drinking to avoid, out with the boys
Getting destroyed to get through

ALL MAYBE SOS
03:25
|

Everyone I lost I heard is better off now, see?
Isn't it better to be not lost and off with someone better than me
What about you, man? Remember when your girl ran off that week?
You thought the world would end
Now you're off picking names for a dog with my old girlfriend
I LET MY DREAMS ALL COME TO ME
ALL MAYBE SOS AND WE WILL SEES
I LET THE PAIN IN TIL SHE LEAVES
ALL MAYBE SOS AND POSSIBLYS
Every time you lose I lose a little too, my friend
Everything has an end
What joy to build, destroy and start it again
WHAT ABOUT YOU, MAN?
You're a new man, you tell me
You've held a world of pain
The world is sayin'
It's got to burn to return again

My buddy burned down his first High School
My cousin never made 2nd grade
Me, I was schooled by my uncles
Brown liquor and dirty old maids
Anytime, we could always find trouble
The law knew us by our first names
There ain't no 3 more crazy than we were
My buddy, my cousin and me
My buddy's mom lived with her dealer
So buddy stole whatever's around
My cousin made gin in his bath tub
And sold it to ladies downtown
Summertime, a '79 G10
Rolling past all of my dreams
Drinking from jars in a van by the sea
My cousin, my buddy and me
Granddad strummed a tune
As he ripped into the room
So sad it could break your heart
My cousin joined in
Singing like sin
Made a man from pain and gin
And I wrote the songs
Everyone sang along
One more time, kiss me my darling
Two more times and I'ma go home
Four's just two more, but I'll settle for three
No, death she ain't bothering me
None of us saw the truck coming
And all of us died instantly
Won't anyone lay a little gin on our grave?
My buddy, my cousin and me
Or better yet, drown my ashes at sea
My buddy, my cousin and me

DIE UNWANTED
03:16
|

|
What do you want, babe? I know it ain't me
What does it cost you, woman?
My heart is free
Let's make love and move to the coast
Just you, me and our ghosts
Your poor young heart, It ain't really broke, your engine's cold
Release the throttle, babe. Open the choke
It ain't wrecked, no, don't take their disrespect
It's a trick, there is nothing to fix
ONE
Why won't you take my lovin'
TWO
Why do you care what other's say
About the way you live your life
They're going to die unwanted
All that you lost, it don't mean a thing
Whatever you got, woman, is more than enough for me
Lets make love and move to the coast
Just you, me and our ghosts
Say my name, won't you babe
If you can't find the words
We all felt the same, I got lost by the second verse
I'm moved when you talk, you don't talk a lot
But I hear what you're saying
There is nothing to change
ONE
Why won't you take my lovin'
TWO
Why do you care what other's say
About the way you live your life
They're going to die unwanted
I'm moved when you talk, you don't talk a lot
But I hear what you're saying
There is nothing to change

WHAT IS LOVE?
04:08
|

|
Carry on young soul, don't get old
The cold that calls out to you is not to do now
Carry on young one, don't become
What they all told you to
It's not for you, done
Go find out who you love
I'll share with you that load, don't get low
There's nothing you're supposed to do
It's up to you, love
Bury all that weight
Live your way
Yesterday is over you, you are over it to
Go find out who you love
The soundman said WHAT'S THAT SONG?
And I'll take two of whatever the driver's on
The driver says WHAT IS LOVE?
You say,
"I'm enough for you and you're enough for me too."

SUMMER DRESS
03:51

Summer came along, you had every moment by it's throat
But then the weather broke, left you on a sour note
I DON'T REMEMBER SUMMER EVEN SAYING GOODBYE
No I don't
I know you had it rough, now you've had enough
You can lean on me any time
Give them yesterday
And we'll get weird tonight
Knock the dust off of your summer dress
I'm gonna take you to a show
Nail your broken heart to the wall
Call when you're ready, I'll be ready to go
Put on my cleanest dirty shirt
I'll clean out the good van
You, this broken hearted woman
Your friends say you shouldn't
Go out with a whole hearted man
One such as I am
Do you belong with me?
Do I belong with you?
Would it be wrong to see
If it could be the truth?
You won't belong to me
If you get it on with me
I won't belong to you
Unless you want me to
You've had it rough, now you've had enough
You can lean on me any time
Give them yesterday
And we'll get weird tonight
Knock the dust off of your summer dress
I'm gonna take you to a show
Nail your broken heart to the wall
Call when you're ready, I'll be ready to go
Put on my cleanest dirty shirt
I'll clean out the good van
You, this broken hearted woman
Your friends say you shouldn't
Go out with a whole hearted man
One such as I am

GIRL DETECTIVE
01:04
|
|||
|
And the way that's most effective
To romance a girl detective
Is to leave her clues and dude
She's going to sort it out herself
As I peruse the Nancy Drews
Above her tidy row of shoes
I leave a note in chapter 3 of
The Spider Sapphire Mystery
Everything should point to me

THE SHIP'S GOING DOWN
03:44
|
|||
|
No lakes, no oceans, no tricks, no potions
Just barren land, just like living man
Don't sigh, don't grieve, don't you cry over me
If we lose in this life, that's how it's supposed to be
No lakes, no river, no always, no never
The sea don't care if you want to live forever
Wear shorts, wear leather, maaaan you can wear whatever
The ship's going down
We should go down together
YOU, YOU DON'T KNOW ME NOW
YOU, YOU DON'T OWE ME NOW
The course of a life is short
I want to stop and say, "hi!"
HELLO, HELLO, HELLO
Goodbye to regrets, goodbye to the past
Goodbye to regrets as she swallows the mast
Hello to new love, I hope we set sail
To be born again in the belly of a whale
Impale me on the bowsprit, nail me to the keel
The ship's going down
She don't care how you feel
We're all part of it all
Some fall hard, others just fall
We're all drowning together
The ship's going down
But it's been going down forever

WHISKEY
03:12
|

|
Whiskey, you're the devil and a thief
All of the grief you keep from me
You always leave another in it's place
I'd gladly pay you twice tomorrow
If you'd take my yesterday
I won't pay my own
Won't you stay my old mistakes
Whiskey, you're the devil and a dear old friend of mine
I hear you call me now
You hold the very heavens in your hand
You spin it like a weathervane
You take it for a dance
We're the same, I know
Not to blame for no romance
We say, "Oh, we ain't sleeping good these days"
Our dreams are stayed, hey, maybe try again tomorrow
WOAH
Buddy, I ain't new
The only thing we both know to be true is this
At first call I can feel it all
By last call I ain't feelin' nuthin
Whiskey, you're the devil and a thief
You steal my grief, release me now
You're the one who'll never make me wait
Never cuss my ma out, never take my landlord on a date
We're the same, I know
Never claimed to no restraint
We say, "Oh, we ain't sleeping good these days"
Our dreams are stayed, hey, maybe try again tomorrow
WOAH
Buddy, I ain't new
The only thing we both know to be true is this
At first call I can feel it all
By last call I ain't feelin' nuthin
Kiss me, lady, frisk me
I got whiskey making all my sentences
I'm still two hundred dollars short on rent
Water says it's in my jeans
But whiskey says it's spent
I think no one's wrong
Can't we drink and get along?
