Bohemian Dreams | Dunning-Kruger 02:02
lyrics
download
First man is above average The second guy thinks so too The third one is on stage With a talent oh so true Five and six look so fine In their perfect suit and tie Nobody knows what they do In that office near the sky One dozen men, Bohemian dreams Working all day for the Dunning machine One dozen men, Bohemian dreams Swimming all night in the Kruger stream Number seven is feeling lucky Waiting for his big break His eyes look a little puffy Blowing candles on his birthday cake The eighth man calls it quits The ninth extends his stay All the rest keep working it Looking so far away One dozen men, Bohemian dreams Working all day for the Dunning machine One dozen men, Bohemian dreams Working all day for the Dunning machine One dozen men, Bohemian dreams Swimming all night in the Kruger stream

Breaking Bad Song 15th Anniversary 2023 03:05
lyrics
download
Breaking Bad made me sad Wow! It’s all over now Breaking Bad made me sad Oh! What will we do now? No more high school teachin’ megalomaniac Lying cheating killing meth-makin’ Dad We love you Walt you’re the best we ever had But you ruined the life of one fine lad When you rode along to bust Jesse’s pad! Wow! It’s all over now We love you Hank the Man that never quit We love you Skyler you’re nobody’s bitch We love you Junior and your minor glitch We love you Jesse the justified snitch We all paid the price of getting rich! Wow! It’s all over now We miss you Mike the quintessential fixer You too Gus sponsor of elixirs We miss you Saul the professional trickster And you Marie the good wife and sister But Walt is the man we all call Mister! Wow! It’s all over now The study of change we call chemistry Lessons in pride fall from Greek tragedy Am I the danger? My own worst enemy? Can I say my own name? Do I know me? Until then maybe I should tread lightly! Breaking Bad made me sad Wow! It’s all over now Breaking Bad made me sad Oh! What will we do now? Wow! It’s all over now Wow! It’s all over now Wow! It’s all over now

Cemetery Friends 02:44
lyrics
download
They told us to Rest In Peace Six feet under the grass Now we spend our eternities Accidental neighbors who have passed If I could my friend I'd stretch my hand To hold yours and comfort you If I could my friend I would stand And hold you in the morning dew I want to hear you story I want to get to know you The moments of your glory And the times you felt so blue Do you wish sometimes We could do it again? Erase all our crimes And bury all our sins Would you make the same choices? Would you click on the same bait? Do you think it's really possible Or maybe it's all just fate Life is short That's what they say But death is shorter still Forever is just one day When our bodies begin to chill If I could my friend I'd stretch my hand To hold yours and comfort you If I could my friend I would stand and hug you in the morning dew Yeah, that's what I'd do That's what I'd do Ooh ooh ooh ooh oh oh oh oh

FATE 01:49
lyrics

Just in case I burn in the fire Or lose my god damn soul Just in case you don't hear my scream In the bloody afterglow Please pause a week or two Before you post your first "Oh, No!" It's all fate just another day Fading into tomorrow Just in case I drown in the waves Or forget my keys Please don't look too long for me In the parking lot Or the god damn ocean breeze It's all fate just another day Fading into tomorrow It's all fate just another day Tasting of our sweet sorrow It's all fate just another day Fading into tomorrow

Goodbye Time | Sex, Love, Good Times 02:57
lyrics
download
I fell asleep last night Without you by my side I don’t know where you go Would you stop if I said no? Do you worry about leaving clues Don’t you know I always knew You say I’m your only one What you mean is I’m just for fun Now let's just be kind Baby it’s our goodbye time Tomorrow you’ll say hello With one more guilty smile to show You just call when you're hot And forget me when you’re not Sure I love you just the same We both like those nighttime games Don’t pretend we’ve just begun When we know we’re almost done Our love just don’t rhyme Baby it’s our goodbye time So let’s stop playing around Kiss once more and then climb down Those stairs without flights The path that shines no light If you want to be free Go on swim strong into the sea I don’t mind being alone Don’t need your heart against my own Now let's just be kind Our love just don’t rhyme Baby it’s goodbye time Good luck goodnight Baby it’s our goodbye time Goodbye time Goodbye time

Made Me Think of You 02:13
lyrics
download
An old receipt from ten years ago From back then when we were new Under the seat of our first car Made me think of you An Instagram from five years before From that day we said "I Do" Buried in my i-Phone Made me think of you Your earring lost one year ago From that night we loved so true I found it Honey under our bed Next to an old forgotten shoe A strand of hair from yesterday From your kiss and hug goodbye I found today on my one black suit With tears pouring from my eyes Tonight I'll see you in the stars I'll see you in the moon Tomorrow in the sunrise And the clouds in the afternoon Honey I will always love you Honey I will always love you Honey I will always love you

Money Game 01:40
lyrics
download
Money don't make you happy We hear that all the time But we never really know Until that last bell chimes Money don't make you happy There's nothing we can buy We might still feel crappy Up until the day we die And on that day, we might say "What the Hell was I thinking?" I got lots of stuff I bought lots of friends But now the Grim Reaper's winking Oh oh no What do we do with all our money We collected so brilliantly Do we make the world a better place Or pretend that wink is friendly Money don't make you happy We hear that all the time But we never really know Until that last bell chimes

My Body Had Been 02:21
lyrics
download
Not long ago I'd catch the eye of every girl passin by I'd hold their glance, they'd ask my name But now we never play that game Oh no, no not again. You just looked right through where my body had been. I'm disappearin by degrees a fadin ghost that no one sees Yesterday I was young and hot Today I'm driving in your blind spot Oh no, no, not again. You just looked right through where my body had been. I got money, and I got power But I don’t want to pay by the hour For what came so naturally Seems like yesterday, actually Oh no, no, not again. You just looked right through where my body had been. I am invisible to you, and there's nothin, nothin I can do No, No, No Oh! Oh no, no not again. You just looked right through where my body had been.

One Day Soon 02:23

One day soon I'm gonna choose To step into your shoes One day soon I'll change my tune Fly from my cocoon One day soon I'll rest my beliefs Listen more than I speak One day soon I'll think with your brain I'll feel your pain One day soon One day soon One day soon One day soon I'll see with your eyes Taste your tears when you cry One day soon I'll hear with your ears Understand your hopes and fears One day soon I'm gonna choose To step into your shoes One day soon I'll change my tune Fly from my cocoon See with your eyes Hear with your ears Cry your cries Fear your fears Think with your brain Open my mind Open my heart Feel your pain One day soon One day soon

Photo Booth 02:54
lyrics

Photo booth take a picture of me I'm a young man of 23 Take one when I laugh Take one when I cry Take one for the half a man am I It's early morning the world is mine American Dreams and warm sunshine Photo booth take a picture of me I'm a middle aged guy of 43 Got an OK job, an OK wife I'm working for Bob it's an OK life I'm searching for my American Dream Eating beans and rice Drinking good old Jim Beam Photo booth take a picture of me I'm slowing down at 63 Sitting on my porch when the sun goes down I see younger people all around They don't see me but I see them I fall asleep at 9PM Photo booth take a picture of me This old man of 83 Little by little I disappear The midnight hour is almost here I'm staring into my TV screen Rocking my chair and my American Dream Take one when I laugh Take one when I cry Take one more before I die

Red Light Lovin | Traffic Light Love Song 02:49
lyrics
download
Red light lovin nearly stopped my heart Sixty-two seconds of braking apart I looked at you, you smiled so sweet I wondered if you felt lonesomely Like me, on that dirty city street That red light lovin nearly two years ago Still washes over me, I don't know I sometimes wonder what could have been Married with kids, or just living in sin Today, could our lights still shine on in? Is red light lovin just a traffic crush? Intersections of loss and lust? Fueled by fears and unspent tears Do we play it safe for too many years? Did you, too, see an angel disappear? I buckle up each morning at eight O five And blend into the rush of a million caffeine drives Racing to get to where even rats won't go A prison of steel roll real slow Looking for a secret shadow show Our red light lovin never turned to green You sent me signals, but I was just nineteen Too young to know I should have looked again One last time to swap adrenalin Or say goodbye in the heat of a Hollywood Tuesday Stop light, red glow, you're there, then you go Look out your window, you going my way? Want to share my ride on the passenger side? I don't like to say it but I do it everyday I'm red light lovin my life away I don't like to say it but I do it everyday I'm red light lovin my life away

I hope you remember the good times I hope you don't forget me You're a good friend of mine And I remember thee I hope you are happy and healthy I hope you will forgive me You and I were barely twenty When you and I were we I miss you my friend I miss you today Do you remember me? Do you remember yesterday? All those motions so far away I hope you remember the good times I hope you don't forget me You're a good friend of mine And I remember thee Oh I remember thee Oh I remember thee Oh I remember thee

Sixteen Secrets 03:41
lyrics
download
You don't try to impress me Don't complain like a fool You don't describe yourself constantly You make me feel smart and cool You don't give me your opinion Don't provide your point of view On politics or religion Or the latest whoop-de-doo You hide your ideology And the chaos of your mind We all love our own garbology And yours is no better than mine You don't say all your thoughts out loud You pretend to agree with me You listen to how I feel You get to know how I see You don't always give an answer You don't always explain yourself You say you'll tell me later And sometimes you say farewell

Sound N Fury 02:59
lyrics
download
Can you hear that train a coming? Do you hear the tune your humming? Can you hear them church bells ringing? Do you hear the hymn your singing? Can you hear that train a coming? Do you hear the tune your humming? Can you hear them church bells ringing? Do you hear the hymn your singing? Can you hear that foghorn groaning? Do you hear your baby moaning? Can you hear that siren screaming? Do you find yourself day dreaming? If you hear that sound and fury Then you don't need to worry All those worsterdays are gone And tomorrows never come Can you smell the flowers blooming? Do you take the time for spooning? Do you tell them that you love them? Do you hold them do you hug them? Can you hear that clock a ticking? Do you hear your shoes a clicking? Can you feel your heart a beating? Are you sure it's still repeating? Are you walking in your shadow? Are you playing on your stage? Will you light another candle? Will you open up your cage? If you hear that sound and fury Then you don't need to worry All those yesterdays are gone And tomorrows never come

Whistleblower 01:41

I still hear that whistle blowing As she steps onto that train I don't know where she's going I don't know her real name Seems like I knew her forever But we just met the night before She told me she had never ever Done that before She promised to stay in touch I wondered if we would I like her oh so much She's smiles oh so good She looked into my eyes She smiled oh so sweetly We kissed a long goodbye Oh so completely I don't know where she's going I don't know her real name I still hear that whistle blowing I hope she hears the same I don't know where she's going I don't know her real name I still hear that whistle blowing I hope she hears the same

Your Little Boy 02:37
lyrics

Mommy, can you hear me? I’m your little boy Delivered from eternity Into your ocean of joy Mommy, I’m your little boy I am not a mistake I’m just a little guy Waiting for my first break My first breath, and my first cry Mommy, I’m your little boy Now that you and I are one Our courage must be found When they tell us to run We have to stand our ground Mommy, I’m your little boy And if you can’t keep me Give me to parents who can It’s OK to set me free I’ll always be your little man Thank you Mommy for letting me be And giving me a voice Thank you Mommy for loving me And making me your choice Mommy, I’m your little boy Mommy, I’m your little boy
