Who's to say
What's impossible
Well they forgot
This world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks reflections fade
But in some ways they remain the same

With everything ahead of us
We left everything behind
But nothing that we needed
At least not at this time
And now the feeling that I'm feeling
Well it's feeling like my life is finally mine
With nothing to go back to we just continue to drive
Without you I was broken

If I had eyes in the back of my head
I would have told you that
You looked good
As I walked away

If you could've tried to trust the hand that fed
You would've never been hungry
But you never really be

Well I'm just people watching
The other people watching me
And we're all people watching
The other people watching we
We're as lonely as we wanted to be
We're all as lonely as we wanted to be
Just as lonely as we wanted to be
I'm just you, you're just me

Are they laughing at or with me?
Aww, baby, those are such great shoes
I think that I'm so happy now
And I think this is a bitter you
Are they laughing at or with me?
Why can't we just say what we mean?

People are just trying to fit in

I've got to get home there's a garden to tend.
There's fruit on the ground and the birds have all moved back
Into my attic with whistling static
When the young learn to fly I will patch all the holes up again.

Well I can't believe that my lime tree is dead.
I thought it was sleeping, I guess it got fed up with not being fed
And I would be too.

Sweeping the floors
Open up the doors
Turn on the lights
Gettin ready for tonight
Nobody's romancing
'Cause it's too early for dancing
But here comes the music

When I look up at the stars
As I walk in the night
Down the street by my house
It feels good

When I look up at the stars
As I walk in the night
Down the street by my house

It’s as simple as something that nobody knows,
that her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes on the feet of a queen of the hearts
of the cards,
and her feet are all covered with tar balls and scars.
It’s a common as something that nobody knows,
that her beauty will follow wherever she goes,
up the hill in the back of her house in the woods.
She loves me forever, I know, she could.

How many times must we go through this?
You've always been mine, woman I thought you knew this
How many times must we go through this?
You'll always be mine, Cupid only misses sometimes

But we could end up broken hearted
If we don't remember why this all started
And if they try to tell you love fades with time

Its really
Too bad
He became a prisoner of his own past
He stabbed a moment in the back
With a brown thumb tack
That held up the list of things he gotta do
Its really,
No good

I can't give you everything you want
But I could give you what you thought you need.
A map to keep beneath your seat, you've been to me in time I'll get you there.
I fold it up so we don't find our way back soon, nobody knows we're here.

We can park the van and walk to town
Find the cheapest bottle of wine that we could find
And talk about the road behind how getting lost is not a waste of time.

Your voice is adrift
I can't expect it to sing to me
As if I was the only one

I'll follow you
The leaf that's following the sun
When will my weight be too much for you?
When will these ideas really be my own?

Head on Collision on a 2 lane country road,
Lord I pray let them be safe.
No turning back I'm just a mile away from home,
I sit here waiting let me be patient.

Sometimes it's hard to ease my mind to realize,
you're always with me waiting, willing
To hear my prayers, my hopes,

Drink the water drink it down
This time I know I’m bound
To spit it back up
I didn’t want this
Salty substitute, just not going to do
I need some air, if I’m going to live through
This experience reminds me of a clock
That just won’t tick

You walk into
The world you make
You loose yourself
But you find your way

Going to watch you radiate …

We turn so slow

In my review
I watch you watching the twilight
Behind the telephone lines
With nothing to prove or to assume
Just thinking if your thoughts are different than mine
In my review
I watch you
I give you your life would you give me mine?

Well that's alright
If that's alright
2000 miles were still
And that's alright
And that's alright
If that's alright
I'll see you in the morning
If that's alright

If they tell me that the bees
Don't make honey anymore
Then what am I supposed to tell you
And if they tell me that the ocean
Is tired of her shores
Then tell me
What am I supposed to tell you

I would turn on the TV but it's so embarrassing
To see all the other people I don't know what they mean
And it was magic at first when they spoke without sound
But now this world is gonna hurt you better turn that thing down
Turn it around

"It wasn't me", says the boy with the gun
"Sure I pulled the trigger but it needed to be done

I got a faulty parachute
I got a stranger's friend
An exciting change in
My butchers blend
A symbol on the ceiling
With the flick of a switch
My new found hero
In the enemy's ditching

Maybe it's up with the stars
Maybe it's under the sea
Maybe it's not very far
Maybe this is how it's supposed to be
This is how it's supposed to be
Maybe it's trapped in a jar
Something we've already seen
Maybe it's nowhere at all

The horizon has been defeated
By the pirates of the new age
Alien casinos
Well maybe it's just time to say
Things can go bad
And make you want to run away
But as we grow older
The trouble just seems to stay

You win
It's your show, now
So what's it gonna be
'Cause people
Will tune in
How many train wrecks do we need to see?
Before we lose touch of
We thought this was low

I've got a symbol in my driveway
I've got a hundred million dollar friends
I've got you a brand new weapon
Let's see how destructive we can be
Got a brand new set of stencils
I been connecting all the dots
Got my plans in a zip-lock bag
Let's see how unproductive we can be

In times like these
In times like those
What will be will be
And so it goes
And it always goes on and on...
On and on it goes

And there has always been laughing, crying, birth, and dying

Angel

I’ve got an angel
She doesn’t wear any wings
She wears a heart that could melt my own
She wears a smile that could make me want to sing

She gives me presents

Your voice is adrift I can't expect it to sing to me
As if I was the only one
I'll follow you, a leaf that's followin' the sun
When will my weight be too much for you?
When will these ideas really be my own?
'Cause this moment keeps on moving
We were never meant to hold on
This was a scene worth waking up for

All at once,
The world can't overwhelm me
There's almost nothin' that you could tell me
That could ease my mind

Which way will you run
When it's always all around you
And the feelin' lost and found you again

I've got an angel
She doesn't wear any wings
She wears a heart that can melt my own
She wears a smile that can make me wanna sing
She gives me presents
With her presence alone
She gives me everything I could wish for
She gives me kisses on the lips just for coming home

As I was saying
Just before you left the room
Before I assumed
That you might not come around

As I was saying
Just after I took my foot from
My mouth and put it back

Banana Pancakes lyrics

Cant you see that its just raining
Aint no need to go outside...

But Baby, You hardly even notice
When I try to show you this
Song is meant to keep ya

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing
But I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,

Behind the wheel against the road next to you
The central coast
The central thought within my mind
Is how to stay within these lines
But still be free
Beneath the ground, the giants sleep
And maybe we're just in their dreams
The setting sun with every turn

With everything ahead of us we left, everything behind
But nothing that we needed at least
Not at this time
And I, feeling that I'm feeling, well
Is feeling like my life was finally mine
With nothing to go back to
We just continue, to drive
Without you I was broken

Lookin at himself but wishin he was someone else
because the posters on the wall that don’t look like him at all.
So he ties it up he tucks it in he pulls it back he gives a grin,
laughin at himself because he knows he aint loved at all.
He gets his courage from the can, it makes him feel like a man
because he’s lovin all the ladies but the ladies don’t love him at all.
When he’s not drunk he’s only stuck on himself,
and then he has the nerve to say he needs a descent girl.

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big
as her bubbly toes
on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all
covered with tar balls and scars
It's as common as something that nobody knows that her beauty will
follow wherever she goes
up the hill in the back of her house in the would she love me forever,
I know she could

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big
as her bubbly toes
on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all
covered with tar balls and scars
It's as common as something that nobody knows that her beauty will
follow wherever she goes
up the hill in the back of her house in the would she love me forever,
I know she could

Just when you were getting used to this place
You were getting used to these bones
You were getting used to the changes
Well the change won’t leave you alone

You finally caught up with the pace
The tough just might have got going
You thought you could trust all the faces

The light was leaving
in the west it was blue
The children's laughter sang
and skipping just like the stones they threw
the voices echoed across the way
its getting late

It was just another night

I would turn on the TV but it's so embarrassing
To see all the other people I don't know what they mean
And it was magic at first when they spoke without sound
But now this world is gonna hurt you better turn that thing down
Turn it around

"It wasn't me", says the boy with the gun
"Sure I pulled the trigger but it needed to be done

It's such a tired game
Will it ever stop
How will this all play out
Out of sight, out of mind

By now we should know
How to communicate instead of coming to blows
We're on a roll

How many times must we go through this?
You've always been mine, woman I thought you knew this
How many times must we go through this?
You'll always be mine, Cupid only misses sometimes

But we could end up broken hearted
If we don't remember why this all started
And if they try to tell you love fades with time

Do you remember when we first met?
I sure do
It was some time
In early September
You were lazy about it
You made me wait around
I was so crazy about you
I didn't mind

Mercury’s in retrograde
Don't believe a thing I say
You know I don't believe that stuff
My mind's only made of dust

The echo always said get real
Mostly I just go by feel
Kick it first if it don't start

She's just waiting for the summertime when the weathers fine
She could hitch a ride out of town
And so far away from that low down good for nothing mistake making fool
With excuses like baby that was a long time ago
But that's just a euphemism if you want the truth he was out of control
But a short times just a long time then your mind just won't let it go

Well summer came along and it then was gone and so was she

Drink the water drink it down
This time I know I'm bound
To spit it back up
I didn't want this
Salty substitute, just not going to do
I need some air, if I'm going to live through
This experience reminds me of a clock
That just won't tick

After we spoke I had a dream that I broke
The teeth from a mouth of a snake
That I choked on the teeth
They were mine all along
I picked up the pieces when I woke
Put them in a boat made of things that I don't wanna see
I blew on the sail
Watched it drift out to sea

Looking at himself but wishing he was someone else
Because the posters on the wall they don't look like him at all
So he ties it up, he tucks it in, he pulls it back, and gives a grin
Laughing at himself because he knows he ain't loved at all
He gets his courage from the can
It makes him feel like a man
Because he's loving all the ladies
But the ladies don't love him at all

And by the way
You know that hope will make you strange
Make you blink, make you blink
Make you sink
It will make you afraid of change
Enough to blame the box with the view of the world
And the walls that fill the frame
I turn it up

I know she said it's alright
But you can make it up next time
I know she knows it's not right
There ain't no use in lying
Maybe she thinks I know something
Maybe maybe she thinks its fine
Maybe she knows something I don't
I'm so, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying

She's got it all figured out
She knows what everything's about
And when anybody doubts her,
Or sings songs without her
She's just so mmm

She knows the world is just her stage
And so she'll never misbehave

Well we could,
Let this love be the fading sky
And we could ,
Drift all night until the new sunrise
Pass me a drink, or maybe two
One for me and one for you
And we'll be
Free, free, free, free,

Oh you’re such a pretty thing I’ll take you and I’ll make you all mine
I would steal you from this patient world let it chase us
It could never take you back

We could watch it from the clouds
We can’t stop it anyhow
It’s not ours
We could watch it from the clouds

Look at all those fancy clothes
But these could keep us warm just like those
And what about your soul? Is it cold?
Is it straight from the mold, and ready to be sold?
And cars and phones and diamond rings
Bling, bling, but those are only removable things
And what about your mind? Does it shine?
Are there things that concern you, more than your time?

Well look at all those fancy clothes
But these could keep us warm
Just like those.
And what about your soul
Is it cold
Is it straight from the mould
And ready to be sold.

Что ж, твоя взяла,
Ты теперь тут во главе -
Так что у нас по программе?
Ведь люди включат телевизоры,
И сколько крушений поездов
Нам нужно увидеть, чтобы
Перестать воспринимать реальность?
Это раньше мы думали "как низко!",

The air was more than human and
the heat was more than hungry and
the cars were square and spitting diesel fumes
the bulls were running wild
because they're big and mean and sacred and
the children were playing cricket with no shoes

the next morning we woke up, man

I've got to get home
There's a garden to tend All the fruit’s on the ground
The birds have all moved back Into my attic
Whistle then static
The young learn to fly
I will patch up the holes once again

Well I can't believe that my lime tree is dead

All at once
The world
Can't overwhelm me
Theres almost nothin'
That you could tell me
That could ease my mind

Which way will you run

Back when all my little goals
Seemed so important
And every pot of gold
Filling full of distortion
Heaven was a place still in space
Not in motion
But soon

Back when all my little goals
Seemed so important,
Every pot of gold filling full of distortion,
Heaven was a place still in space not in motion,
But soon

[Chorus:]
I got you

A brand new baby was born yesterday just in time
Papa cried baby cried said your tears are like mine
I heard some words from a friend on the phone didn't sound so good
The doctors gave him two weeks to live
I'd give him more if I could
You know that I would now if only I could
You know that I would now if only I could
Down the middle drops one more grain of sand

If I had eyes in the back of my head
I would have told you that
You looked good
As I walked away

If you could've tried to trust the hand that fed
You would've never been hungry
But you never really be

Imagine there's no heaven
Its easy if you try
And no hell, below us
And above us, is only sky

(chorus)
Imagine all the people
Livin for today.

There is no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
And no song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia tone loving

Love is the answer
At least for most of the questions in my heart

Brushfire fairytales
Itsy bitsy diamond wells
Big fat hurricanes
Yellow bellied given names
Well shortcuts can slow you down
And in the end we're bound
To rebound off of we

Everyone laughed at her joke
As if they'd never even heard it before
And maybe they were truly amused
But every word that she spoke was a bore
And maybe it's because they had seen
The previews on the TV screen
Well this part is good and that's well understood
So you should laugh if you know what I mean

Don't worry
Everybody in the room notices you
Sit back and relax
The night is early
We are about to overdo it
So come and tell me something that you've already told me
'Cause everybody's already heard your lovely stories
I'm hoping some of them are true

Well don't give me no comic book sad looks no more
Please don't use those same excuses you've used before
Mmm hmmm Mmm hmmm
You told yourself so many times it's okay
So be good to try
But you just don't know how to come back down
And now you beat me up, you break me down
Hoping I don't come around,

Well he's not necessarily trying to say that he minds it
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
Well he's not necessarily trying to say god can't be trusted
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
And certain situations scream for deviations
But somehow he always gets stuck in the middle
Of this and that and man he should try less
Because every time he's rejected man he loses affection

I feel sorrow for the fear
And everything it brings
Wonder if it will ever sleep
I know you understand
Because you briefly look away
Focusing on nothing
So now everything is clear
Cause there's noone to blame

Hey, little girl
You might not know this song
This is not the kind of song
That you can sing along to
But hey, little girl
Maybe some day
At least that's what all
The good people will say

Well, I heard the blinker's on
I heard we're changing lanes
I heard he likes to race
I heard there's six or seven words he likes to use
Are always in bad taste
And I heard that Monday's just a word we say
Every seven times around
And then we pin the tail on Tuesday

It feels good to be the one, that you want
When all I want is you
It feels good to be the one, that you want
When all I want is you
When I first saw you come across the room
And then you saw me, then I knew what to do
I tried to play it cool and attached no strings
But by the end of the day, I needed the whole thing

I heard this old story before
Where the people keep on killing for their metaphors
But don't leave much up to the imagination,
So I, wanna give this imagery back
But I know it just aint so easy like that
So I turn the page and read the story again
and again and again
It sure seems the same, with a different name

I got myself a new axe
For chopping all this wood that's
Goin' in that fire
It's gonna keep us warm tonight
Tonight
Tonight
It's cold out that window
There's cards on this table

"No Good With Faces"

No good with faces
And I’m bad with names
Gave me directions
But it’s all the same
I’m lost
I’m too tired to try

After all this time after all these seasons
After your one decision to go to the water for reason
Now it's only the ocean and you
And all these lines will all be erased soon
They go out with the tide
Then come back with the waves
It's only the ocean and you
You don't want you don't wait

Well I'm just people watching
The other people watching me
And we're all people watching
The other people watching we
We're as lonely as we wanted to be
We're all as lonely as we wanted to be
Just as lonely as we wanted to be
I'm just you, you're just me

Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen
Most of 'em dreams, most of 'em dreams
Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder

Questions, I've got some questions
I want to know you
But what if I could ask you only one thing
Only this one time, what would you tell me?
Well maybe you could give me a suggestion
So I could know you, what would you tell me?
Maybe you could tell me what to ask you
Because then I'd know you, what would you tell me

Well I woke up this mornin',
Rainbows filled the sky,
Yes I woke up this mornin',
Rainbows filled the sky,

And there was God,
Tellin' me,
"Everythings gonna be alright"

Everybody is made of clay
That’s what they used to say
Til the truth stepped on us all
Now everything that was big is small
Were just little crying robots
Program me I wanna win the race
I wanna find the place
Where the king locked up the princess

Не существует комбинации слов,
Которые я мог бы написать на задней стороне открытки.
Нет такой песни, которую я смог бы спеть,
Но я могу попробовать ради твоего сердца,
Наших мечт, а они сделаны
Из реальных вещей,
Как коробка фотографий
С эффектом любимой сепии...

Sweepin the floors, open up the doors
Yeah turn on the lights, getting ready for the night
Nobody's romancing, 'cause its too early for dancing
But here comes the music ...
Bright lights flashing
They cover up your lack of so many people
So many problems
So many reason to buy another round

Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You might even say it glows
And all of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose
and if you ever saw it
you would even say it glows
all of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names
they never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer games

Same Girl lyrics

If you could read my mind
You'd say "Baby you were right
And I don't want to fight anymore"
You're usually righter than I am
And I'm not a very good fighter
Am I? No neither are you

Sexy sexy made up of plexi disaster
Pushing and pulling conservative rolling
Unlike plastic, easier to see through
Just like glass with no ring
Softer and sadder you sing
Sexy sexy do your thing
Learn to be shy and then you can sting
Plexi, plexi bend don't shatter

Sexy sexy made up of plexi disasters
Pushing and pulling conservative rolling
Unlike plastic, easier to see through
Just like glass with no ring
Softer and sadder you sing
Sexy sexy do your thing
Learn to be shy and then you can sting
Plexi, plexi bend don't shatter

Shot reverse shot
Look what the other got
Shot reverse shot
Look what the other got

Drop the anchor make it stop
Edible digital clocks
Infinity figure eight

Now I was sitting waiting wishing
That you believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
But Lord knows that this world is cruel
And I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool
Learning loving somebody don't make them love you

Must I always be waiting waiting on you?

Situation number one:
It's the one that's just begun,
But evidently it's too late.
Situation number two:
It's the only chance for you;
It's controlled by denizens of hate.
Situation number three:
It's the one that no one sees;

Trouble travels fast
When you’re specially designed for crash testing
Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon
Come on and tell us what you’re trying to prove

Because it’s a battle when you dabble in war
You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together
Whether the storm drain running rampant just stamp it

Someday at Christmas, men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like boys play with toys
One warm December, our hearts will see
A world where men are free

And some day at Christmas, there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found out what life is really worth

It's really too bad he became a prisoner of his own past
He stabbed the moment in the back with a brown thumbtack
Then held up the list of things he gotta to do
It's really no good he's movin' on before he understood
He shot the future in the foot with every step he took
Caught from the places that he did cause he forgot to look
Better staple it together and call a bad weather
Staple it together and call it bad weather

I know I've seen your face somewhere
Selling something, some big idea
I know I've seen that vacant stare
Selling sunsets for somebody else
You find yourself asking yourself
What is any of it worth
You find yourself looking up at night
From the bottom of the earth

Maybe it's up with the stars
Maybe it's under the sea
Maybe it's not very far
Maybe this is how it's supposed to be
This is how it's supposed to be
Maybe it's trapped in a jar
Something we've already seen
Maybe it's nowhere at all

I want to be where the talk of the town
Is about last night when the sun went down
And the trees all dance
And the warm wind blows in that same old sound
And the water below gives a gift to the sky
And the clouds give back every time they cry
And make the grass grow green beneath my toes
And if the sun comes out

From my tape deck there's a recklessness
Inflections of the world we want
All my friends, my rusty truck
We’re just specs of love, directionless
We’ll call this band just what we want
We can change the name from month to month
Four guitars and zero drums
We sounded folk but we wanted to be punk

They say Taylor was a good girl, never want to be late
complain, express ideas in her brain.
Working on the night shift, passing out the tickets,
You're gonna have to pay her if you want to park here.

Well mommy's little dancer is quite a little secret
Working on the streets now, never gonna keep it.
It's quite an imposition and now she's only wishin

Three it's a magic number
Yes it is, it's a magic number
Because two times three is six
And three times six is eighteen
And the eighteenth letter in the alphabet is r
We've got three r's we're going to talk about today
We've got to learn to
Reduce, reuse, recycle

Hey, what do I do
If the captain is drunk
And the winds are too much?
She's out looking for something
And maybe it's love
Or some adoration and baby, too much
He's looking for something to prove
What can I do?

A billion people died on the news tonight
But not so many cried at the terrible sight
Well mama said
It's just make believe
You can't believe everything you see
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonight
Who's the one to decide that it would be alright

It's always more fun
To share with everyone
It's always more fun
To share with everyone
If you have two, give one to your friend
If you have three, give one to your friend and me
It's always more fun
To share with everyone

Some will say
This place is wrong
These hands are fast
This face is long
Just stop upsetting yourself
Upsetting your thoughts
Upsetting this world
That you're standing on

Tied down against the tracks
Screamin' in silent black and white
You trust us
We are such villains
We will tell ourselves anything we want to hear
If we are willin'
To listen is to learn
And too much is what we deserve

in times like these
im times like those
what will be will be
and so it goes
and it always goes
on and on and on and on and on
on and on and on and on and on it goes

Bring on your hunters
Let them bring their dogs
It's me that your wanted
I've been right here all along
Right here all along

You better bring your buckets
We're got some dreams to drain

There's traffic in the sky
and it doesn't seem to be getting much better
there's kids playing games on the pavement
drawring waves on the pavement
shadows of the planes on the pavement
its enough to make me cry
but that don't seem like it would make it feel better
maybe its a dream and if I scream

mellow rock instrumentation
folk influences
a subtle use of vocal harmony
mild rhythmic syncopation
extensive vamping
acoustic sonority
major key tonality
a dynamic male vocalist

In the morning when the world came awake
Before you knew me I knew your name
It was painted across the day as it breaks
An impression in your window frame
When you saw me out your window
Singing from the garden
Only the beginning
I'm only getting started

Yea
And I'm just a waste of her energy
And she's just wasting my time
Mmhmmm
So why don't we get together
And we could waste everything tonight
And we could waste and we could waste it all tonight
Yea

Fall is here, hear the yell
Back to school, ring the bell
Brand new shoes, walking blues
Climb the fence, books and pens
I can tell that we are going to be friends
Yes I can tell that we are going to be friends
Walk with me Suzy Lee
Through the park and by the tree

Well I cant give you everything you want
But I could give you what you thought you need
A map to keep beneath your seat
You'll read to me in time I'll get you there
But fold it up so we don't find our way back soon
Nobody knows we're here
We can park the van and walk to town
Find the cheapest bottle of wine that we could find

Watch you when you say
What you are and when you blame
Everyone, You broken king
Watch you change the frame or
Watch you when you take your aim
At the sum of everything

[Chorus]

Well, your mama made you pretty
And your mama made you sweet
Your daddy gave you daydreams
And more cushion in your seat
Your mama gave you those windows
To your beautiful soul
Your daddy’s got more love for you
Than you could ever know
