Middle Of The Night
02:39
|
|||
Takes a toll
To be free
Take a carry-all and
Pack it up with no more than you need
Up in the middle of the night
I am waiting for the light
We could make a little fire
From this fallen cedar tree
Pick up soles
Chicken feet
Underneath the truck I'm
Hanging on and hell am I beat
Up in the middle of the night
I am waiting for a sign
I could take a little lie down
A hundred feet beneath the sea
Dig a hole
Dig it deep
Do be good enough
To let a brother get a good night's sleep
Up in the middle of the night
I am witnessing a crime
And these lunatics and liars
Are calling out to let it be

Green Fire
02:59
|
|||
I don't need any proof
I can feel it in my gut
This old woman bears an evil omen
Bring a black horse out the front
Take her to the bridge, throw her in the water
If she don't sink like she ought to
Take her to the town, put her on the pyre
And when she burns we all get burnt
By waves of green fire
I'm an ordinary man
I've got a right to be heard
These ashes bear an incantation
Scrape them up from the dirt
Take them to the bridge, throw them in the water
If they don't sink like they ought to
Take them to the town, put them on the pyre
And when they burn we all get burnt
By waves of green fire

Up Above My Head
02:36
|
|||
Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head I hear music in the air
And I really do believe, really do believe
In the Lord somewhere
All in my home I hear music in the air
All in my home I hear music in the air
Up above my head I hear music in the air
And I really do believe, really do believe
In the Lord somewhere

Working Hard
03:48
|

All you hard working people
Will be delivered
And you lazy boys
Can sit there and shiver in the cold
Try not to get sick or old
Working hard and getting nowhere
Coming in on a wing and a prayer
Don't even know if I want to go there
If at the end of the road
There's a penniless soul like you to meet me
Just a tumbler of vodka
And a pillow of feathers
Is all I need to be ready to weather the storm
I feel like I've been here before
Working hard and getting nowhere
Coming in on a wing and a prayer
Don't even know if I want to go there
If at the end of the road
There's a penniless soul
There's a penniless soul
There's a penniless soul

Don't Want To Be Loved
02:12
|
|||
You never listen when I sing
Or let me shelter beneath your wings
Dear Lord above
I just don't want to be loved by you
We don't talk much anymore
I'm sick of fighting and I'm tired of war
Dear Lord above
I just don't want to be loved by you
It's just a game that you played
It's time to abandon any plans we made
Dear Lord above
I just don't want to be loved
I just don't want to be loved
I just don't want to be loved
I just don't want to be loved

Everything's Broke
03:42
|
|||
Thought I'd been saved
Crest of a wave
I fell and hit the shore
Lost some friends
Ne'er do wells
I ain't even going to show these people
Out the door
Everything's broke
Why can't it be just like it used to be
There's still some hope
That you're the person that's going to
Fix it all up for me
Thought I could choose
What to keep and what to lose
These useless things I've accrued
They become scars
They'll break your heart
If you can mend them don't
Throw them away

Blue Bear
03:44
|

You know there’s nothing in the woods
But what’s that sound?
Maybe better turn back now
Maybe better turn back now
Feeling like I’ve been here before
In my déjà vu
Maybe better turn back now
Maybe better turn back now
There may be troubles on the way
But that blue bear is more afraid of you
I wish I could call
And you’d appear
To calm me down
You gotta calm me down
I wish I could feel
Right again
You gotta calm me down
You gotta calm me down
Wait until the blue bear’s gone
And hear the bluebird sing
You got to get right up
And you got to brush yourself down
There’s no shame in feeling down down down
You got to get right up
And you got to brush yourself down

Old Timers
04:28
|

Here's some old timers
And they're going to have a party
And we're all invited
There's some cherry tobacco
'Cause I stole it from your packet
And there's coal on the fire
Old age waits for no man
I can't wait for dreamland
Here's a warm blanket
And when someone sings a song you start to
Gaze at the night sky
And it all seems so pretty that you know that you are blessed
Just be here and see this

See Green
03:00
|

Lover, you don't need to suffer
Troubles, buried in the rubble
Nor should you feel
Like a spoke in the wheel
'Cause I see green
You get blue and yell oh you must hate me
You see red but I know you you'll see green
See green
Summer's written in the colours
One shade looks just like the other
You can feel free
To disagree
'Cause I see green
Brother you're just like a lover
Six of one and half a dozen
Laughing at me
Beautifully
'Cause I see green

There's intruders in the store
Shouting 'everybody get down'
So we hit the floor
I don't feel safe
Behind the wall
I'm going to wait til the last bullet falls
I'm going to wait til the last bullet falls
And it's the summertime
I smell your sweet perfume
It lingers on my clothes and in my hair
And if you cover me with lime
Under a strawberry moon
Lay me down in the clothes that I'm wearing
And if I ran
I could reach the door
But there are so very few things worth dying for
And if my time's up
I'll heed the call
I'm going to wait til the last bullet falls
I'm going to wait til the last bullet falls
And my final thought
Is I don't even blame these fools
If I were in their shoes I might do the same
Yeah I could have fought
But I didn't want to lose you
Everything we have done has been in vain
I'm going to wait, I'm going to wait
I'm going to wait til the last bullet falls
I'm going to wait, I'm going to wait
I'm going to wait til the last bullet falls
I'm going to wait til the last bullet falls
