The Other Day

|

These moments that we’ve seen could never be esteemed
We all show up for the mess
But it was nice being ‘round when I had a stake in this town
I’ve changed, you’ve changed, I guess
And it’ll be alright, yeah we’ll keep staying up at night
I think it’s for the best
Cause baby I’ve been yours since you came knocking at my door
Amends I can’t express
Oh yes

Drive Me Short

Drive me short man, it’s a Saturday night, I’ve got a thirst for music and I’m feeling right
I’m gonna grab the keys to my Subaru, you’ve got a cure for feeling blue
So long pops it’s time to hear the radio, driving around with my diet coke
Drive me short man, drive me all over town
I wonder what’ll be on this week’s show, I can’t wait to see where I’m gonna go
From Marshall to Wingra to Olin-Turville, I know you’ve got a setlist that’s gonna kill
There’ll probably be The Beatles or The Rolling Stones, The Shangri-Las or The Ramones
Drive me short man, drive me all over town
You’ve got the tunes that I seek, not to mention the Freak of the Week
Drive me short man, drive me all over town
You got me dancing like I really should, got me singing real loud in my neighborhood
The garage rock, the girl groups, and the punks, they all make me wanna scream and jump
Playing the coolest records in sight, no way I’d rather spend my Saturday night
Drive me short man, drive me all over town
(dedicated to Little Steve Van Zandt)

But I Knew
02:14
|
|

|
Lord you know my life, is a sin
Built on what I know is true
Built on years and years of things that I didn’t do
That I didn’t choose
But they define what’s truth and lie and most of all
What I go through
Yeah all my passion is pointless
The rest matters so much more
You can’t ever hope to connect we’re both too busy keeping score
I shouldn’t be here regardless, of whether I know what is wrong
I won’t treat myself with respect when sacrilege keeps me marching on

How Does He Dance
01:33

I wanna learn to dance, to sweep you off your feet
Take a look at that confident man and make him see
I wanna learn to dance, to set myself free
Listen to what you say and know that it’s not me
I want something to break, to give away to the beat
Demolish my foundations and set my feelings free
I want something to break, to not have to try
To open up the clouds and just let myself cry
I wanna learn to dance, to get up off the floor
Go about my life like I’m not anxious anymore
I wanna learn to dance, I wanna learn to be me
Stop thinking about my sight and just go out there and see
I wanna learn to dance, I wanna learn to be me
Fill day after day with
L - U - V

It was like it is now
The things we’d say
To feel good about
Where we lay down at night
It’s not old, but you know it can’t be right
Do as I’m told
Stay out of sight

I Forgot Them Right Away
02:30

Getting up out of bed
You can at least go to it
Your friends will be there and care about
The things you just went through
Hanging out at the back
Old faces I hadn’t seen
When you had felt it, I didn’t know
Just what it would mean to you

Whatever Happened To
01:52
|
|

|
Got told about it, it just brought me chills
Pounce on him now but don’t go for the kill
Tried so hard but I can’t distill
The purpose of it, nobody will
Spent all this time knowing just how it feels
No way, no how that this can be for real
I think it’s a catch yeah, I think it’s a steal
Will I know if I’ve ever really been healed
Sits in his room at the end of the day
Thinking so long about what to say
And how to do it in the very worst way
I bet he thinks that he’s really brave

Tell Me of This Feeling
02:03

Attention class return to the facts, put your fake books on shelves
We’re going back to the days through this linen haze to when we did things for ourselves
You’ll never be alone, it’s been shown, you’ll surely see
Why now? I don’t know!
Put your hands on the radio, baby yes.
Sweep the floors, turn up the tunes
The things we need for our lives are in those runes
And for sure, at the surface, it may seem nothing
But if you look underneath it all, we’re always up to something
