Something Now

Gotta do something good
Gotta do something now
Gotta do something good
I don’t know just how

Sunglasses Feelings
02:47
|
|||
|
I’m hitting the road
I don’t know where I’ll go
I’ll be there when I know
I just really wanna go
Time to get away
Just a few days
Seeing something new
That’s what I wanna do
I’ve got those sunglasses feelings
On the open road
Keeping the sun out
I’ll go where I wanna go
When I get there
I’m sure I’ll know
But in the meantime
I just really wanna go
Asking around
I won’t be found
At least not for days
I just wanna feel the haze
I wanna see a new town
I wanna walk on new ground
After I roam
Then I’ll come home
I’ve got those sunglasses feelings
On the open road
Keeping the sun out
I’ll go where I wanna go
When I get there
I’m sure I’ll know
But in the meantime
I just really wanna go
I’ve got those sunglasses feelings
On the open road
Keeping the sun out
I’ll go where I wanna go
When I get there
I’m sure I’ll know
But in the meantime
I just really wanna go

Do You?
02:47
|
|||
|
I remember running down the beach
Seashells were out of reach
I was looking for sharks teeth
Oh, I was young and so were you
Times they changes and people grew
Things got old and things got new
I still don’t know what to do
Does anyone? Do you?

Apologize
04:38
|
|||
|
I get to apologize
When I act like an ass
And I don’t know why
But I do, I do
Sometimes, I don’t stop
Until I’ve made someone cry
It’s a real dick move
And I don’t know why
I’m getting better
I don’t want to be this way
It’s not ok

The Mountain
03:02
|
|||
|
I was standing on the mountain
River flowing like a fountain
I was standing on the tundra
It was only me and Lucy
Just remember this November
Things might be different this year
With all the cha-cha-cha changes
There might be no snow this year
Think about what’s happening
The warning light is blinking
What are all the people thinking?
Hell man, I just don’t know
Just remember this November
Things might be different this year
With all the cha-cha-cha changes
There might be no snow this year

Impossible Task
03:06
|
|||
|
People often say
Be happy with what you got
But then when you talk to them
They’re really, really not
I tried to get to the bottom
And this is what I got...
I’m being asked to complete
An impossible task
I don’t think that its too much to ask

It’s so Easy to...
01:34
|
|||
|
It’s so easy to drop bombs
It’s so easy to kill moms
It’s so easy to go to war
It’s so easy to send the poor
It’s so easy to hide in your bunker
It’s so easy to live high on the hog
It’s so easy to talk really tough
It’s so easy to lie like a dog
It’s so easy to send the poor to die
It’s so easy to pretend to cry
It’s so easy to play chess with peoples lives
It’s so easy for you to thrive

Ballad of Andrew Finch
02:16
|
|||
|
I was just sitting in my home
I heard some noise and went the door
I opened it up to see what it was
I stepped on the porch to much confusion
Before I had a chance to know what was what
I was shot down, a policeman shot me down

Drowning in Nothing
02:20
|
|||
|
We’re all drowning in nothing
Drowning in nothing, drowning in nothing
Seems to be the new American way
You read the papers, you read the news
Everybody’s got the American blues
So many answers to the wrong fucking questions
You got boner pills. You got stolen elections
We’re all drowning in nothing
Drowning in nothing, drowning in nothing
Seems to be the new American way
If I gave you advice, would it be really good?
Would you ever listen? Do you think that I should?
Nothing to say. Nothing to do. Nothings the answer
Fuck it. we’re through
We’re all drowning in nothing
Drowning in nothing, drowning in nothing
Seems to be the new American way

Stay Right Here
02:35
|
|||
|
It’s getting late now
It’s getting late now
It’s getting late now
But I’m just gonna stay right here...
Wake up this morning
It’s an ugly day
Cold and windy
Dark and gray
Searching for the words
I don’t know what to say
I’m still hopeful it will be ok
It’s getting late now
It’s getting late now
It’s getting late now
But I’m just gonna stay right here...

Last One... Baby
06:48
|
|||
|
This is the last one baby
I don’t know what I’ve got
This is the last one baby
I better quit before it gets hot
This is the last one baby
I don’t know what I’ve got
This is the last one baby
I better quit before it gets hot
This is the last one baby
I think I better stop
This is the last one baby
I better quit before I get shot
This is the last one baby
I think I better stop
This is the last one baby
I better quit before I get shot
This is the last one baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby
