Sunday Morning Angel
Look in my window look in my eyes
you'll see me waiting when it's cold outside
I gave you the diamonds
I gave you the gold
even though you won't tell me
I know I've been told
(Chorus)
I'm your Sunday morning angel and your Saturday night
I'm your Sunday morning angel and your Saturday night
(Bridge)
Don't come around here til you prove me wrong
I'm a worn out jukebox I'm a worn out song
Tired of dancing pretending there's joy
when you're just my weekend I'm just your toy
I'm leaving the window turning the blinds
the pressure is fading it was a matter of time
I gave you the diamonds
I gave you the gold
I told you I loved you
how was I to know?
(Chorus)

Beautiful Georgia
(chorus) If i could walk
through the land of Georgia
and see that land
fall neath my feet
If I could show you
beautiful Georgia
I'd find a place
where we could meet
And my family
is not from Georgia
but many of their friends are
when they stood
in the middle of Georgia
their smallest laughter
would carry far
(chorus)
I bet you'll find
your way through Georgia
Sunny fields and rainy lakes
see that mighty land before you
giving you all you can take
(chorus)

Rattle Boogie Blues
The world's got everything you'll ever hope to find
so if you don't know Bob Dylan than you ain't no friend of mine
if you don't know his albums or these rattle boogie blues
then you don't know how pretty it feels standing in my shoes
(Chorus)
I hear Dylan in my head when I'm on the phone
if I want to win a woman I'll just write her Dylan poems
I can play harmonica along with the other million
you can't be my age without loving Bob Dylan
I'm leaving this world soon and I won't be back no more
I've been sad since I found out what's in store
but I'm proud to have burned my cigarettes and smoked away my blues
listening to Bob Dylan play his tunes
(Chorus)
His songs got you by the head they go in and out of style
the critics ain't the cynics 'neath the shadow of his smile
you know he don't smile plenty his music does the work
people give him money he'll teach you not to hurt
(Chorus)

She's A Little Troublemaker
Oh my she's so fine
She's a little heartbreaker
Can I be her preacher's son?
You'll find I'm a real taker
There's no way to know how I feel
Because she looks better than she did in school
Oh my world is mine
she's a little heartbreaker
snow white fly by night
dress up tight troublemaker
there's no way to know how she feels
but she looks better than she did in school
Oh my clementine darling is a heartbreaker
sitting on a shop top preaching like Tammy Baker
There's no way to know if she's real
But she looks better than she did in school
There's no way to know if she's real
But she looks better than she did in school

L.A. Baby
Yes this used to be my farm
I don't need it anymore
I spent two days in a lonely car
heading south from 'Frisco
I wanted to be tough
and never bored
I wanted my freedom
like a war
(Chorus)
She sells the sea shells by the sea shore
this is L.A. baby what you looking for?
I passed an empty phone booth
wondered what to say
I once went into hiding
because he got his way
I wanted to be tough
and never bored
I wanted to be
whatever mystery affords
(Chorusx2)

Thought Control
I'm your rolling stone
your little organized crime
Puff Daddy in disguise
Give me a kiss
give me some life
my body is my enemy
time bomb ticking
but you know
I'm a real good dealer in the thought control.
Time bomb ticking
overcome my heart
cooperate
you start
you got shotgun
lickety split
something to shoot at
in case you forget
that I'm a real good dealer in the thought control.

Backseat Superstar
You feel a stranger everyday
pass through your life though nothing's changed
you can not grow
when you're falling down
that same trick tunnel you messed around in on
I'm making your heart ache
I told you that I loved you too soon
How silly I walk through your shock like it's a reception?
(Chorus)
I'm a backseat superstar you know how far I'm gonna go.
I'm a backseat superstar you know how far I'm gonna go.
I'm pulling my weight now
happy to be on my own
but
the man in charge hides from lies he tells to no one's eyes
letting silence tell the time
look to see if our love is blind
don't you find i mistake your beauty for good conversation?

Lady Of Night And Day
A time to escape this morning
this life you've built around you
no scars may control you
a dead end may await
let your curls down
learn from your mistakes
come into your own
(Chorus)
Lady of night and day take the morning train
Lady of night and day take the morning train
Lady of night and day take the morning train
a time to escape
You were sold for a dollar and had to pay the rent
fire was in your eyes before the rain came and went
before the storm you were so strong
now your heart sings along to a frozen song
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Life is so sweet when your rambling feet are drowned in misery
and you can't click your busted heels
and say there ain't no place like home
there ain't no place like home
(Chorus)
I see in your future the tears will run dry
fields will grow greener
the sun will rule the sky
and you'll hear a different song
and your heart will sing along to a beautiful song
(Chorus)

Promise Me The Roses
Give me all that's golden
with no ribbon of regret
kiss me with your lips
make me good and wet
take me to the garden gates
silver carriage too
promise me the roses
it's something you can do
Take me to the dungeon
to the top and bottom door
cage me like an animal
bleed me like a whore
echo me like thunder
meander in my shoes
buy me worlds of mirrors
it's something you can do
(Bridge)
Something I missed
I made a little mistake
did I tell you I could live off your love
and die off your hate?
ooooh
This is where the trick gets good
I want you to be huge
not interested in messing you up
can I just live with you?
promise me the roses
wander in my shoes
all I want is everything
that's something you can do
something you can do
something you can do

Anytime You'll Find Me

Anytime You'll Find Me
Now I'm in the soul scene
trying for divinity
Cold catch someone I love
I used to know enough of
Now I'm so happy to be exactly where I am
Anytime you'll find me
That's when our time began
You should have known a lot better
than to not know my bad side
It ruins almost everything
that I've touched or put aside
Give me the freedom to do what I do
Anytime you'll find me
alone and waiting for you
I should have kept our secrets
when I told the world our lies
Made it look happy
until you asked me my mind
Clearly it's hidden
I've thrown away the blame
Anytime you'll find me
I love you anyway

Another Last Day
The days are long
It's loneliness appealing
there's been nothing like this before
She's a ship
That sailed away
Without an anchor to call her home
(Chorus)
Does living ever make you feel like it's just another last day
and you're never going to leave for home?
Does giving ever make you steal like it's just another last day
and nobody will ever know?
There's so much hope
for a little inspiration
to bring her in the dark
You want what you can't hold onto
just enough to make it hard
(Chorus)

If I Never Met You
(Chorus)
I'd have been famous long ago if I never met you
I wanted to play my guitar but baby I played you
you kept feeding me coffee cigarettes and booze
I'd have been famous long ago if I never met you
My friends say you're a one night stand turned out to last ten years
They say I could have made it I could have had my big career
Instead we got our money by selling soles of my shoes
I could have sold my soul to a company but of course I met you
Sorry to sound blaming but I'm not the only one
my band are a bunch of bald headed boys who know how to have some fun
and we're putting out a CD a little later in the year
and God knows what these women are going to do to our careers
(Chorus)
You can't understand why I complain all my life
You say I could have been Bob Dylan who had six kids and a wife
but Bob Dylan had a manager who was a hell of a lot better than you
and I know I would have made it if I never met you

Written For The Radio
Everybody else has their chance to make everybody dance
everybody else has fans and the looks and the band
and every chance I take
every move I make
I have to hear those songs that make mine seem so uncool.
(Chorus)
This is my song written for the radio
This is my song written for the radio
This is my song written for the radio
and if they never play it I don't mind
Joe Public's got a curse
what they like gets worse and worse
reality is just a dream
no one takes it like they seem
sorry if I'm too real
sorry if I'm too me
sorry if I look strange
won't you listen to me?
(Chorus)

I Need You
I could love you like a needle loves a vein
but I'll love you as a dry root loves the rain
I could touch you as a tear touches a cheek
but I'll touch you as a healer touches the meek
I could hold you as time holds scars
but I'd rather hold you as heaven holds the stars
(Chorus)
I need you
Baby I want you to know
I don't need you to know me to know
Oh baby I need you so
I need you
I don't need anymore time alone
I don't even believe anymore
In emotions I hear on the phone
I could kiss you as a mother kisses a sore
but I will kiss you as an ocean kisses the shore
I could steal you like a wave steals your breath
But I'd rather steal you like a robber steals the rest
I could know you like a lover knows his lure
But I could know you like a doctor knows his cure
(Chorus)

I Only Want You For Your Money
Who beat you down and shook your ground?
Told you lies you liked to hear?
Made a mirror turn you around
and sent you down the hole you steer
you're someone I can't have for free
I'll make ends meet when you're next in line
you show me what you're wanted for
won't you blind my worried eyes
And it's too late to go back there
And it's too late to go back there
And it's too late to go back there
why don't you say to me?
(Chorus)
I only want you for your money, baby
I only want you for your diamond eyes
I only want you for your golden hair
I only want you to realize.
I only want you for your money, baby
I only want you for your diamond eyes
If you want to stay I'll surely go
you pretend I'm an eskimo
like you'll never flee my cold embrace
but I can save it for a rainy day.
(Chorus)

Heaven Sent
There's a child from the darkness falling form the sky I see
and he knows what he's going for but it don't matter
for he's never found
what love he's falling into now
he stands in a river
he stands so cheap with his tongue so deep
and he's holding your hand
and he never understands
yet he knows you're here
he just feels so unclear
and he fears if he falls he'll fall farther away
(chorus)
I don't know why heaven never sent you before
I don't know why heaven never sent you before
I don't know why heaven never sent you before
but God only knows where you're coming from
but God only knows where you're coming from
You can flirt so deep let your conscience sleep
it's a strange way to feel when you're in love again
(Chorus)

True (I've Made Up My Mind To Be True)
She said "it's simple just let go"
She said "nobody has to know"
I've made up my mind to be true
even if that means losing you
If I talk too loudly say goodbye
If I tell you too much it's all lies
I've made up my mind to be true
even if that means losing you
(Bridge)
True to myself true to you
I'll do exactly what I want to do
be myself no holding back
all I have is all I lack
She said "it's simple just let go"
She said "how could you feel that I should know?"
I've made up my mind to be true
even if that means losing you
I've made up my mind to be true
even if that means losing you

Have No Chains On Me
Sing a morning song
when the sun is high
when I know it's over
and I'm running out of time
All I ask of today
is to have no chains on me
Sha na na na na na
chains on me
Cold steel shadows
make me creep and scare
I'm gonna spend my life with you
believe me if you dare
All I ask of today
is to have no chains on me
Sha na na na na na
chains on me
I’m pretty good
I guess I deserve the chance
to romance any circumstances
and If I should
because I’m nobody’s bad news
I’m just a fool who sits and dances
You've caught me on the run
caught me in the cold
living my lies again
and never coming home
All I ask of today
is to have no chains on me
Sha na na na na na
chains on me

At The End Of The Sunset (Lyricist Unknown)
I can see forever in the velvet of your eyes
The melting of my heart meets the setting of the skies
Mystery rises and tightens my heart
Can you feel it? Beating in the dark?
My breath echoes inside your ear
I can feel the moisture of one lonely tear
(Chorus)
The stars in the sky sing your rapturous song
Angelic, mysterious I won't do you wrong
Just keep on kissing and holding me near
At the end of the sunset I will still be here
The spark you feel when you touch my face
spirals me into a heavenly place
Where no one can reach us just you and me
sharing our love so blissfully
Forever seems like a dream
and I finally know what it means
(Chorus)
I can see forever in the velvet of your eyes
The melting of my heart meets the setting of the skies
Mystery rises and tightens my heart
Can you feel it? Beating in the dark?
My breath echoes inside your ear
I can feel the moisture of one lonely tear
(Chorus)

Make The Most Of The Day
It's 6 o'clock in the morning
and I'm going home
It's 6 o'clock in the morning
and Lord I'm coming home
there's no good in being down
nothing worries me but fear
it's seems the end of my life
now is drawing near
(chorus) So it's out the door
because breathing's a chore
and I've got to make the most of the day
x2
It's 8 o'clock in the morning
the bus is letting me off
I couldn't handle the fumes
and I'm embarrassed to cough.
Nobody loves me
Told close friends of this disease.
Told some friends
"can someone be my friend please?"
(chorus)
It's 10 o'clock in the evening
and I'm home laying in bed.
I can't run no longer
maybe I'm better off dead.
No one to feed me
No one to care for me at all.
(chorus)
