With No Shoes (top)

Stone me, and may you always have no shoes,
And I would rather just for you
Be the devil make you mine

And she, I know you say you hardly sleep
I make you cold I make you weak
I`ll be the son of everything you hate

And come the day I`ll be the king,
The king of all and everything
Your saint is coming thru`,
You know he`s gonna feed on you

I`ve been walking with no shoes,
Keep your mountain picnic blues,
Today I`m baptising you

Stone me, and may you always have no shoes
And I would rather just for you,
Be in a taxi driving miles from here

I`ve been walking with no shoes
Fill my kidneys up with booze,
Today I`m killing you, killing you

The stars who play with laughing sam goodnight
I know God is on your side
I`ll be the devil, make you, make you mine

And I could hardly wait to shoot you down
I keep you underneath my crown,
A side of beef should see you off to sleep

I`ve been walking with no shoes,
Keep your mountain picnic blues,
Today I`m baptising you
Baptising you

North Country Boy (top)

Hey country boy, hey country boy
What are you sad about, every day you make the sun come out
Even in the pouring rain, I`ll come to see you
And I`ll save ya, I`ll save ya

What you care about, she says this and that
What do I mean to you, I`ll show you if you want the truth
I can`t remember, don`t know how to tell you
But I love you just the same

How many eyes must a young girl have
I know she makes you cry, I know she makes you laugh
I`ll be good to you if I`m gonna make you happy
If I had a son I`d be good to my daddy
Loves you though I bet it`s not the same
As your north country boy

Hey country boy
What are you sad about, I think we`re working out
Even in the morning rain I`ll come to see ya
Hope your feelings are the same

How many ears must a young girl have
I know she hears you cry I know she hears you laugh
Itchy and Scratchy come running up the alley
If you be good I`ll be good to your daddy
Who loves you but I bet it`s not the same
As your north country boy

What you care about, she says this and that
What do I mean to you, I`ll show you if you want the truth
I threw it all away, don`t know where I put it
But I miss it all the same

How many eyes must a young girl have
I know she makes you cry I know she makes you laugh
I`ll be good to you if I`m gonna make you happy
If you be good I`ll be good to your daddy
He loves you but I bet it`s not the same
As your north country boy

Tellin' Stories (top)

Come see me in the morning
Can`t you see I`m tellin` stories
My sweet angel`s everlasting true love ways
I`ll wait I`ll sow the seed I`ll set the scene
And I watch the world go by

See me come through changes
Revelations to blank pages
I`ll find a brighter guide to see me through
And leaves fall to the ground to turn brown
Through the day just like you

Live for the day I see your heart is empty
I`ve got plenty
Joe come ride with me
I see your head is is meant to be cemented
It`s true, when the stories that you tell
Come back to haunt you

I`ll be there in the morning
Can`t you see I`m tellin` stories
My sweet angel`s everlasting true love ways
While others turn to others introduce
You and walk right on through

It`s just about knowing where
You come from being you and
Singing love songs can begin to fill your day
I could lead you to the top don`t stop
I could lead you there still

Live for the day I see your heart is empty
I`ve got plenty
Joe come ride with me
I see your head is meant to be cemented
It`s true, when the stories that you tell
Come back to haunt you

One To Another (top)

One to another
Sister and a brother
And I`m changing the way that you feel
Pleased to meet you
Hope I never see her
I`ll be at ease watching you sleep, watching you smile

Love I adore you
Always looking for you
And I`ll be there whenever you need me
Be my Spiderwoman, I`ll be your Spiderman

I hear our day is coming
Gets sweeter every year
Tomorrow`s gonna be too easy
Today`s gonna be too near
Trust is for believers
And love can keep the faith
I don`t need you, I can`t buy you, I can`t hurt you

One to another
Peace to my brother
Always giving me his thing for free
It`s hard to knock you
It`s good to rock you
And I`ll do it the best that I can

I hear our day is coming
Gets sweeter every year
Tomorrow`s gonna be too easy
Today`s gonna be too near
Trust is for believers
And love can keep the faith
I don`t need you, I can`t buy you, I can`t hurt you

I stand by my accusations
I come clean, I don`t need no vice
I know you wanna keep me waiting
I think it`s funny that you might
Love is hard to leave
And it`s hard to never have
Can you please come out your window
You can play with all my love yeah yeah yeah

Box up all our records
And a headful of ideas
And a handful of escape routes
They`re gonna burn you

You're A Big Girl Now (top)

All the people gather around and see the sun set high
Leaders and your disused milk will quietly pass you by
What will it be my melody can set you free
I know you you`d rather be with us than be with them today

I could be alone with you
While all the pretty people watch the years go by
And in your free world you will sail on

Ooh! You`re a big girl now
You`re a big girl now

I see her through jet pilot eyes mysterious and thin
Like a raven breakin` free from the towers they keep you in
What a scene it is to see I`d love to have you round

I will be alone with you
I would wait out on the streets watching wheels go by
And with your freedom you will sail on

Ooh! You`re a big girl now
You`re a big girl now

How Can You Leave Us (top)

Darlin` don`t you cry
Whatever is yours is mine
All the pictures on your wall
I know you look up to them all
Usually love comes first
I watch as you twist and turn
I could give you mouth to mouth
And only the truth would come out

Here I come how can you follow
It`s only a gut feelin` I don`t want to believe it
How can you leave us how can you bleed on us

Darlin` you live to learn
Hanging on all our words
Promise me you`ll be home soon
I could rush through the city to you
Won`t find you in this world
Catchin` dinosaurs
No saint will save you this time round
I only wish you were here with us now

Here I come how can you follow
It`s only a gut feelin` I don`t want to believe it
How can you leave us how can you bleed on us

How can you leave us (How can you leave us)
How can you bleed on us (How can you bleed on us)

Area 51 (top)

(instrumental)

How High (top)

How high, oh I can kiss the sun
Run a minute mile while you hitch hike
Loves shines a light, I`ll be a lovin` cup and
I`m lookin` for the one who cut you up
You`re not having me you know the skies are mean and
I`m lookin` for a way to free you, love

I`m fixing holes the ones you break up,
Come in from your drive,
And the hand that rocks you cuts you up
Like lyrics of your mind

I can`t buy what I`ve done before
I want to open up another door
I`m gonna let you pass I`m on another path
I wanna be the king, while you zig-zag
On a holy road, like Caine from kung fu
How high, oh I can kiss the sun

Hang on to your hopes my darlin`
Don`t let it slip away
And the hand who holds you keeps you warm
And helps you live today

Love shines a light and it takes and it hurts,
I know I`m right, I can bend `til I burst
And love shines a light and repays you with us
Yeah, too right I`m gonna pledge my time `til the day I die

How high, oh I can kiss the sun
Run a minute mile while you hitch hike
Loves shines a light, I`ll be a lovers cup and
I`ll be down when you`re down,
I`ll be up when you`re up
You`re not having me you know the skies are mean and
I`m lookin` for a way to free you, love

I`m fixing holes the ones you break up,
Come in from your drive,
And the hand that rocks you cuts you up
Like lyrics of your mind

Love shines a light, and it takes and it hurts,
I know I`m right, I can bend `til I burst
And love shines a light and repays you with us
Yeah, too right I`m gonna pledge my time `til the day I die

Only Teethin' (top)

I`ve been lookin` to save the city,
Looks like the biggest thing
And now you seem like you`re not so real
As the songs you give

So you pack up your bags and leave
To what seems like a better dream,
It`s alright we`re only teething, only young

Yeah, since you came, last week to say
You`re on your way,
You don`t have to say good luck
`Cos I don`t need it babe

The occasional sin
Is like your music my friend
And the singer he don`t look me in the eye

Is there a soul in young things,
Or in the people you meet
I know you`re obviously misbelieving,
What you`re saying is only right

Yeah, since you came, my sweet to say,
You`re on your way,
You don`t have to wish good luck
`Cos I don`t need it babe

Meanwhile, you`re only dreaming,
Me I`ve got something to see in,
A heartache`s as good as you feel it,
And now you`re on your own

I know I`ve been loosing you
And it looks like I`ll use you too,
It broke in a million pieces overnight

I`ve been to the promised land
And I shook the almighty hand
Who said it`s alright
You`re only teething in my eyes

Yeah, since you came, last week to say
You`re on your way,
You don`t have to say good luck
`Cos I don`t need it babe

Get On It (top)

When you`re low and I`m feeling awry
And it`s time to say goodnight
When you finally lay your soul to rest
I`ll be falling asleep on an empty street

No matter how you`re feeling
You know you`re never on your own

Hear the bells ring in the morning
As you crawl back from the church
All the buildings go up to the sky
All the people goin` down to the ground

No matter how you`re feeling
You know you`re never on your own

And your boss is quietly hounding
As he creeps into your sleep
No voice or poet`s pen can touch what
Hits you in the morning

It don`t matter how you`re feeling
You know you`re never on your own
You don`t even have to answer the phone

Ain`t nobody talkin` me down
I will destroy you
I`ve shown my soul come on

Ain`t nobody listening to you
I`ll be your eyes your ears
Get on it
