Buena

 

I hear a voice from the back of the room

I hear a voice cry out you want something good

Well come on a little closer let me see your face

Yea come on a little closer by the front of the stage

I said come on a little closer I got something to say

Yea come on a little closer wanna see your face

You see I met a devil named Buena Buena

And since I met the devil I ain't been the same oh no

And I feel all right now I have to tell ya

I think it's time for me to finally introduce you to the

I'm Free Now

 

I'm free now to direct a movie

Sing a song or write a book about yours truly

How I'm so interesting I'm so great I'm really just a fuck-up

And It's such a waste to burn down these wall around me

Flexing like a heartbeat we don't like to speak

Don't talk to me for about a week I'm sorry it just hurts to explain

There's something going on that makes my guts ache

I got guilt I got fear I got regret

I'm just a panic stricken waste I'm such a jerk

I was honest I swear the last thing I want to do

Honest I swear the last thing I want to do

Is ever cause you pain

Oh

I'm free now

Free to look out the window

Free to live my story

Free to sing along

Oh (x4)

I'm free now to direct a movie

Sing a song or write a book about yours truly

How I'm so interesting I'm so great but I'm really just a fuck-up

It's such a waste to burn down these wall around me

Flexing like a heartbeat we don't like to speak

Don't talk to me for about a week I'm sorry it just hurts to explain

There's something going on that makes my guts ache inside

I got guilt I got fear I got regret

I'm just a panic stricken waste I'm such a jerk

I was honest I swear the last thing I want to do

Honest I swear the last thing I want to do

Is ever cause you pain

Oh (x2)

 

 

 

All Wrong

 

She had black hair like ravens crawling over her shoulders

All the way down

She had a smile that swerved

She had a smile that curved

She had a smile that swerved all over the road

It's all wrong all wrong

All wrong all wrong

She had a way of making people feel good to be around her

As it should be

It's all wrong all wrong

All wrong all wrong (x2)

All wrong

And when she laughs I travel back in time

Something flips the switch and I collapse inside

It's all wrong all wrong

All wrong all wrong (x2)

All wrong

 

 

 

Candy

 

Candy told me nothing really matters anymore

And when I ask her what she means she says I ought to know

Candy said she's made arrangements for me in the sand

And Candy said she wants me with her down in Candyland

Candy says she wonders why we try

I couldn't think of what to say

I had no ready reply

But Candy says I'd like it where she is

She says it's an opportunity that I don't want to miss

Candy said she's made arrangements for me in the sand

And Candy said she wants me with her down in Candyland

Candy said she wants me with her down in Candyland

Candy asked me if she died if I could go on

Of course I said I couldn't and of course we knew that's wrong

But Candy I said Candy no you can't do that to me

Because you love me way to much for you to ever leave

Candy said she's made arrangements for me in the sand

And Candy said she wants me with her down in Candyland

Candy said she's made arrangements for me in the sand

And Candy said she wants me with her down in Candyland

Candy said she wants me with her down in Candyland (x3)

 

 

 

A Head With Wings

 

I got a head with wings (x3)

And I can see so far away I can see so clear

You would not believe the view up hear

I got a head with wings

A head with wings

Now I'm floating around up here way above the clouds

So high about the ground

And the only thing that holds my head to the ground

Is this one little skinny string

I got a head with wings

A head with wings

I got a head with yea oh

A head with wings

I got a head with wings (x3)

And I can see so far away yea so far away

I can see the shadows fall across your face

I got a head with wings

A head with wings

I got a head with yea yea

A head with wings (x2)

Yea (x2)

 

 

 

In Spite Of Me

 

Last night I told a stranger all about you

They smiled patiently with disbelief

I always knew you would succeed no matter what you tried

And I know you did it all in spite of me

Still I'm proud to have know you for the short time that I did

Glad to have been a step up on your way

Proud to be part of your illustrious career

And I know you did it all in spite of me

In spite of me

Late last night I saw you in my living room

You seemed so close but yet so cold

For a long time I thought that you'd be coming back to me

Those kind of thoughts can be so cruel

So cruel And I know you did it all in spite of me

In spite of me

 

 

 

Thursday

 

We used to meet every Thursday Thursday

Thursday in the afternoon

For a couple of beers and a game of pool

We used to go to a motel a motel

A motel across the street

And the name of the motel was the Wagon Wheel

Oh

One day she said come on come on she said

Why don't you come back to my house

She said my husband's out of town

You know he's gone till the end of the month

Well I was just so nervous so nervous

You know I couldn't really quite relax

Cause I was never really quite sure when her

Husband was coming back

Sure one of the neighbors yea one of the neighbors

One of the neighbors that saw my car

And they told her yea they told her

I think they know who you are

Well her husband he's a violent man a very violent and jealous man

Now I have to leave this town I got to leave while I still can

We should have kept it every Thursday Thursday

Thursday in the afternoon

For a couple of beers and a game of pool

We should have kept it every Thursday Thursday

Thursday in the afternoon

For a couple of beers and a game of pool

She was pretty good too

 

 

 

Cure For Pain

 

Where is the ritual

And tell me where where is the taste

Where is the sacrifice

And tell me where where is the faith

Someday there'll be a cure for pain

That's the day I throw my drugs away

When they find a cure for pain

Where is the cave

Where the wise woman went

And tell me where

Where's all that money that I spent

I propose a toast to my self control

You see it crawling helpless on the floor

Someday there'll be a cure for pain

That's the day I throw my drugs away

When they find a cure for pain (x2)

When they find a cure find a cure for pain

 

 

 

Mary Won't You Call My Name

 

Cross my fingers and I hope to God

I knock on wood and pray with all I've got

Cross my bow with a cannonball

I see the writing on the wall hey

There's no map and there's no clue

Of where to go and what to do

Yea who to dog who to ride and who to hold

Forever by your side (x2)

Mary won't you call my name (x2)

Mary won't you call my (x2)

Mary won't you call my name

I fell into the hands of a rich man's daughter

She led me like a lamb no bother

To go and live inside a barn on her Daddy's 90 acre farm

Hide your daughters in the snow and watch out for the undertow

Hold both hands against the door and dig your feet into the floor

Tell ya there's no map and there's no clue

Of where to go and what to do

Who to dog and who to ride and who to hold

Forever by your side (x2)

Mary won't you call my name (x2)

Mary won't you call my (x2)

Mary won't you call my name

 

 

 

Let's Take A Trip Together

 

Let's take a trip together

Headlong into the irresistible orbit

Breathing the cold black space

With the glistening edges

Let's take a trip me and you

Let's go the scenic route

Get to finally (x3)

Get to know each other

Just to be alone (x2)

Just to be alone with thee

Somewhere there's no distracting breeze of information

Leaking through the windows dripping from the trees

Somewhere there's no earthquakes

Of other people's anxious questions

No nervous wrecks going down (x2)

Let's take a trip together

Headlong into the irresistible orbit

 

 

 

Sheila

 

Shelia has a cat she pets the cat

Puts a spell on the cat a beautifully cat

Shelia has a cat she pets the cat

Yea the beautiful cat says Shelia Shelia

Shelia has a cat she pets the cat

Puts a spell on the cat a beautiful cat

She takes the cat looks him in the eyes

Makes him reply Shelia Shelia

Oh most gracious of beings

Oh most gracious of beings my queen

I'm yours to command

Yours to command

I'm yours to command Shelia Shelia

Shelia has a cat she pets the cat

Puts a spell on the cat

She runs her fingers down his back

'Cause Shelia has a cat puts a spell on the cat

Looks him in the eyes makes him reply

Shelia Shelia (x2)
