Bob, the Nutless Wonder
Now Bob's my dog and was born with nuts
but what with the surplus of dogs and such
I thought it'd be a good idea to have both of his nuts removed
they say it makes em a better pet
so I took him down to the local vet
but little did i know that trouble was about to ensue
well they brought me bob, minus his balls
but it didn't seem to phase 'em at all
in fact he looked at me like he'd somehow been reborn
hell we hadn't even made it as far as the door
when he spotted a lassie and looking to score
he jumped on her like he was a leading...

Already There
Listen
to the new baby's cry
The time of his life
begins
Walking
while holding a hand
He'll soon understand
the way
Growing
into his own
He leaves home and drives
away
(chorus)
Maybe you're far from the end of your road
so far there's no need to care
maybe you're only along for the ride
maybe you're already there
Living
one day at a time
The years go by slow
at first
but then comes
the end of the line
He wonders where time
has gone
(chorus)
(repeat...
to the new baby's cry
The time of his life
begins
Walking
while holding a hand
He'll soon understand
the way
Growing
into his own
He leaves home and drives
away
(chorus)
Maybe you're far from the end of your road
so far there's no need to care
maybe you're only along for the ride
maybe you're already there
Living
one day at a time
The years go by slow
at first
but then comes
the end of the line
He wonders where time
has gone

Real
She laughs like she means it
and cries when she needs to cry
As gentle as a baby
But from her look you'd think there's maybe more
Yeah the truth is in her eyes
And all she ever hides
Is the pain from the lies
from before
In a sea of make believe
She's as real as the day is long
She'll take you as you are
But only go as far as you wanna go
Yeah the truth is in her eyes
And all she ever hides
Is the pain from the lies
from before
She laughs like she means it
and cries when she needs to cry
As gentle as...
and cries when she needs to cry
As gentle as a baby
But from her look you'd think there's maybe more
Yeah the truth is in her eyes
And all she ever hides
Is the pain from the lies
from before
In a sea of make believe
She's as real as the day is long
She'll take you as you are
But only go as far as you wanna go
Yeah the truth is in her eyes
And all she ever hides
Is the pain from the lies

She laughs like she means it

22 lbs of 100's
I got 22 lbs of 100's
up against my chest
they say you can't take it with you
guess they haven't seen my vest
started in the saw mill
every day after school
mama said save those pennies son
don't you be no fool
I worked the smokey coalmine
Hauled my share of hay
I did my time shinin shoes
ain't no time to play
I got 22 lbs of 100's
up against my chest
they say you can't take it with you
guess they haven't seen my vest
I ploughed the fields till the sun was gone
no time for a wife
saving up for a...

Off the Road
in news today another lost soul
took our hope and left a hole
a hole so deep it can't be filled
not after all the blood he spilled
then greed disguised as charity
set up shop to fill the need
fill the need of their own
collecting till their cover's blown
so far off the road so far off the road
words of comfort turn to rage
fights emerge on who's to blame
blame the shooter or blame the gun
our world's become a setting sun
rich or poor and black or white
blue or red and left or right
right or wrong its all the same...

Frozen World
a frozen world of time and space
the tumblers all fall into place
one by one like dominos
on and on and on it goes
on and on
a change of plans he lost a chance
one more fateful circumstance
she's so close but not close enough
she's too far away to feel the love
too far away
moving through the crowded floor
a passing glance as she finds the door
he's so close but not close enough
he's too far away to feel the love
too far away
yeah yeah
he'll meet another so will she
I guess it's just not meant to be
not...

7 Highway
(chorus)
7 highway the open road
It seems to know just what I'm looking for
My 7 highway I know for sure
It's gonna lead me home to you
Well there's a road in the midway state by the Oklahoma line
It's not well known but smooth and fast, and gets me there on time
Don't know how long it's been there and if its all the same
I'd like to think it's there for me, I'm lucky as its name, that
(chorus)
Well you're up there and I'm down here you're oh so far away
I think about your smiling face it gets me through the day
Working till...

f**k You, you f**king f**k
Fuck you, you fucking fuck
Fuck your fucking 'best of luck'
Fuck the times we spent alone
Fuck your 'miss you's' on the fucking phone
Fuck the night we fucking met
Fuck that borrowed cigarette
Fuck your smile when I gave you a light
Fuck the rest of that fucking night
Fuck the fucking way I felt
First time you unbuckled my fucking belt
Fuck the room and fuck the bed
Fuck the thoughts that filled my head
Fuck that spring and summer and fall
Fuck the way you fucking stalled
When I fucking asked you to be my fucking wife...
Fuck your fucking 'best of luck'
Fuck the times we spent alone
Fuck your 'miss you's' on the fucking phone
Fuck the night we fucking met
Fuck that borrowed cigarette
Fuck your smile when I gave you a light
Fuck the rest of that fucking night
Fuck the fucking way I felt
First time you unbuckled my fucking belt
Fuck the room and fuck the bed
Fuck the thoughts that filled my head
Fuck that spring and summer and fall
Fuck the way you fucking stalled
When I fucking asked you to be my fucking wife...

Push On
Passively push on with blinders, unaware and unspoken
No contact is the rule, but rules are made to be broken
Time is the ultimate leveler, and eventually a healer
That's what all the experts say, but I am no believer
All I know is NOW-- tomorrow's too far away
And what difference would tomorrow make, it's just another day
Breathing, eating, drinking, sleeping. (Lather, rinse, repeat)
Going through the motions so the heart will keep its beat
But beat it must and consistently through the passive and the dreary
Through solitary moments...
No contact is the rule, but rules are made to be broken
Time is the ultimate leveler, and eventually a healer
That's what all the experts say, but I am no believer
All I know is NOW-- tomorrow's too far away
And what difference would tomorrow make, it's just another day
Breathing, eating, drinking, sleeping. (Lather, rinse, repeat)
Going through the motions so the heart will keep its beat
But beat it must and consistently through the passive and the dreary
Through solitary moments...
