ANYBODY’S BUSINESS
Billy and Michelle
Have little in common
Except billions of their cells
Got together and they bonded
Billy’s my best friend
But his love history is despicable
A bunch of complicated kooks
Beautiful nemesis specifically
It’s not
It’s not not
It’s not anybody’s business
Betty and Louise
Are pillars of symmetry
Betty’s hard to please
So naturally Louise
They got out of Bristol
On someone’s else’s dime
So Betty and Louise
Are living on borrowed time
It’s not
It’s not not
It’s not anybody’s business
Billy and Michelle
Betty and Louise
They met at a party
All thanks to me
Michelle and Louise
Got together on a tease
Betty bit her tongue
Before you know it there were none
But Billy and me
It’s not
It’s not not
It’s not anybody’s business

In Your Arms

IN YOUR ARMS
Honey what’s come between us
Buildings burning down
That thing in the elevator
Well I just wanted out
If they come to find you
And you fall in their hands
I will go there with you
To find myself again
In your arms in your arms in your arms
In your arms in your arms in your arms
Where I can feel you breathing
And I don’t feel the end
In your arms in your arms in your arms
Guns and badges numbered
Impossible arrest
I lost you in the thunder
Lightning in my chest
But who could come between us
Three thousand of them dead
The nightmare we were living
It wasn’t in my head
In your arms in your arms in your arms
In your arms in your arms in your arms
Where I can feel you breathing
And I don’t feel the end
In your arms in your arms in your arms
Where I can feel you breathing
I feel it all again
In your arms in your arms in your arms
Crushed velvet
Won’t you take me down
Closed circuit
On the floor now
Crushed velvet
Won’t you take me down
Closed circuit
On the floor now
On the floor now
On the floor

What's Left of My Heart

WHAT’S LEFT OF MY HEART
Somehow I lost direction
And the wrong looked right
Caught in the headlights
Of a godforsaken night
In the eyes of my country
In the eyes of my Lord
I was nobody’s hero
What was I shooting for
I know it’s not easy
But it can’t be that hard
I don’t know where we’re going
But it can’t be very far
I’ve got my reasons
I never learned to play the part
But I’ll give you what’s left of my heart
I’m a born believer
I wear that cross
I hope the good Lord receives me
But I’m afraid I’m lost
Hold me closely
You’re all I’ve got
It took a war to show me
What love can cost
I know it’s not easy
But it can’t be that hard
I don’t know where we’re going
But it can’t be very far
I’ve got my reasons
I never learned to play the part
But I’ll give you what’s left of my heart
I know it’s not easy
But it can’t be that hard
I don’t know where we’re going
But it can’t be very far
Besides I’d go any distance
With you driving the car
And I’ll give you what’s left of my heart
Yeah I’ll give you what’s left of my heart
I want your love
I want your godforsaken love

It's True

IT’S TRUE
I was born with this world in mine
Running down a dream I ran out of time
Somewhere along the road I must have missed a sign
I had no one to father me
I built my own empire and lost the key
If you can look right through me, tell me what you see
It’s true it’s true
Yeah I look a lot like you
It’s true it’s true it’s true
I look a lot like you
Catch your eye in the subway light
Flashing like a photograph in the night
I may be strange but I was born to be alright
It’s true it’s true
Yeah I look a lot like you
It’s true it’s true it’s true
I look a lot like you
In the mirror on the wall
I saw you
In the mirror looking out
I saw my own kind of face
It’s true it’s true
Yeah I look a lot like you
It’s true it’s true it’s true
I look a lot like you

Dying on the Dance Floor

DYING ON THE DANCE FLOOR
Was it a dream
In violence love is extreme
When I am clean
I never say what I mean
There’s no such thing as tomorrow
There’s not much left of today
You know all this joy and sorrow
Is gonna slip away
I’m not gonna die while I’m dancing tonight
No I’m not gonna die on the dance floor
I guess I got fucked up
On my own personal love
Or drugs, could be the drugs
Oh honey I’ll let you be the judge
It’s high time I got my shades on
And who knows if it’ll last
But the future’s looking brighter
Than the past
I’m not gonna die while I’m dancing tonight
No I’m not gonna die on the dance floor
It’s high time I got my shades on
And who knows if it’ll last
But the future’s looking brighter
Than the past
I’m not gonna die while I’m dancing tonight
No I’m not gonna die on the dance floor
Spin your partner round and round
Round and round
Every step one closer to the end
I’m not gonna die while I’m dancing tonight
No I’m not gonna die on the dance floor

Whiskey Mouth

WHISKEY MOUTH
Phonograph
Pale music and one-night stand
No one knew that it was leading to
A shotgun wedding
I confess
I am never gonna be your best
Your daddy’s suit and my mama’s dress
There’s no use regretting
What I can’t work out
Is how we live without
The things we say
We don’t need today
What I live without
I don’t talk about
Because it hurts
Too much say
Save it for another day
Sour mash
Drank my heart into a head on crash
Heavy feelings that I can’t hold back
I don’t think we’ll make it
Whiskey mouth
Who’s fooling who I can’t get out
There’s a special kind of feeling now
Hitting the pavement
What I can’t work out
Is how we live without
The things we say
We don’t need today
What I live without
I don’t talk about
Because it hurts
Way too much say
Save it for another day
Tell me what it is I’m missing
All that static on the line
You got reasons well then give em
And I will give you mine
A little piece of mind
What I can’t work out
Is how we live without
The things we say
We don’t need today
What I live without
I don’t talk about
Because it hurts
Way too much say
What I can’t work out
Is how we live without
The things we say
We don’t need today
What I live without
I don’t talk about
Because it hurts
Way too much say
Save it for another day

4TH OF JULY
Snake river canyon speed freak
I dare the devil to make a mess
I’m not afraid of anything
Except a white wedding dress
I limped over to the station
Like some banged up alley cat
Somebody called me sweetheart
So I hit em with a baseball bat
It’s the Fourth of July
I’m gonna take you so high
It’s the Fourth of July
You’re a speed freak baby
Well so am I
You got this thrill junkie howling
Watch me fly right through the air
You can be the one spectator
Run your fingers right through my dirty hair
It’s the Fourth of July
I’m gonna take you so high
It’s the Fourth of July
You’re a speed freak baby
Well so am I
I’m pure American
A true believer
Honey, I’ve got
Everything you need
Drill the diamond from the copper
Anaconda got my love
Gonna steal it from the midnight walker
Evel comes from above
One Clearwater morning
They will call me
Call me home
Heart attack fever
And the rubber hits the road
It’s the Fourth of July
I’m gonna take you so high
It’s the Fourth of July
You’re a speed freak baby
Well so am I

When We Were Young

WHEN WE WERE YOUNG
When we were young
We swam where we are now
Your eyes were starry nights
The water deep
And we dove down
Our t-shirts on
We drank ourselves to sleep
Prayed God our souls to keep
With the whiskey
We passed around
We didn’t care about
All the things that matter now
When we were young
When we were young
Ohio River bank
The storm came in
I took your hand
And made you mine
Here we are now
Caught in the memories
Missing the nights
We don’t remember
We can’t forget
We didn’t care about
All the things that matter now
When we were young
You gave me your heart out on the water
I gave all I could, you wanted more
You’re all I ever cared about
I can’t let this flame go out
Love like lightning coming down
Bring us back to what we found
When we were young

Blue

BLUE
Oh your poetic face
Born with every heartbreak
Written on it
Lost in a cold embrace
Cemetery night
Forever haunted
You want something
And I want something
So we made something
Out of nothing
Gold is a funny color
Fades into the night
Without a warning
Blue an elusive lover
Rising with the light
Gone in the morning
You want something
And I want something
So we made something
Out of nothing
How am I to see
How am I to know
Who’s the first to go
How are we to know
When you want something
And I want something
So we made something
Out of nothing
Blue like a fever burn
You can’t bring back the dead
For all your crying
Blue I looked out for you
Some things never change
There’s no use trying

ALL I EVER WANTED
Emergency medical
I guess somebody must have
Made the call
I’m hanging on
I’m hanging on
I’m not used to the attention
Now I can’t say my name out loud
Can you hear me now
Cause I can’t hear me now
I guess all I ever wanted
Was to love and not be haunted
Crybaby left over an hour ago
The sun set like a picture show
All the pretty horses coming down
I guess all I ever wanted
Was to love and not be haunted
Make make believe
In the whispering waves
It was beautiful and strange
It was beautiful and strange
Somebody’s praying in the waiting room
There’s an ocean in the window view
Reach out to touch it and I’m gone
I guess all I ever wanted
Was to love and not be haunted
