Another day, another walk Too much time for idle talk My time and my mind just slippin’ away My dreams are blank, no visions today. I try to be smart and try to hold fast I like it when the crowd is aghast Quantum level chess on a holographic field Preacher sayin’, all will be revealed! Somethin’ dirty, somethin’ dirty, somethin’ dirty’s going on Tired of wakin’ up, achin’, naked on the lawn Somethin’ dirty, dirty, dirty, somethin’ dirty goin’ on Suspicions risin’, conclusions drawn Lookin’ for a chance to make my escape Contingency plans startin’ to take shape Two steps ahead of who-knows-what Can’t get away from the ifs, ands, or buts Sunrise waiting for the next sunset The day will come, on that you can bet Go all in, it’s not too hard Now which sleeve was I hidin’ that card?

One day, you’ll say, show a little faith in me But it’s always, always something, and we never seem to agree It’s just a matter of time, wondering when you’re gonna change your mind If not for love, it’s not for nothing, you can’t stem the tide Someday or someway, have a little sympathy All the signs, well, they say, you’re tired of waiting for me It’s just a matter of time, wondering when you’ll make up your your mind If not for love, it’s not for nothing, you can’t stem the tide Hey babe, what’s that you say, don’t interrupt me, no not today Hey now, you just slide away saying, everything’ll be alright It’s just a matter of time, wondering if you’ll ever change your mind If not for love, it’s not for nothing, you can’t stem the tide

Out Of Time 03:23
I thought I saw you, I know that’s crazy Maybe I dreamed it, maybe I didn’t We had forever, so we got lazy But I never, thought I’d never, see you again Na na na na na na na, Na na na na na na na Maybe we just ran out, we ran out of time Maybe we just ran out, we ran out of time Was it good as, I remember? What’s the difference, what’s the difference? We had forever, so we got lazy But I never, thought I’d never, see you again Na na na na na na na, Na na na na na na na See you again (Never, never, never) Maybe we just ran out, we ran out of time Maybe we just ran out, we ran out of time I don’t want to talk about it - it makes no sense

I need a slow, self-driving car Maybe not too smart, with the heart of a star Self contained, with just one job Simple plan, to get ahead of the mob I need a slow, self-driving car No Beep-beep, beep-beep, yeah, driver for this star Isolation works, when it comes to this job Takes a better man to get ahead of the mob There I can think, there I can dream Maybe I’ll cry, maybe I’ll scream Over the bridges and thru the woods Using black grid roads to deliver the goods You need a slow, self-driving car Smile and wave to those who think you’re a star All those fans, come to see and sob Always feeding off the embrace of the mob We need a slow, self-driving car Maybe that shiny, blue one behind the bar Always an adventure with this job Simple plan to get ahead of the mob

Twelve years old, Summer of Love Soon enough, push came to shove Clung too tight, they’d crushed the dove Came too late to the Summer of Love Summers came and summers went Wasted time, best days spent Old habits just don’t want to relent Best intentions, not worth a cent Is it too late, still a chance? for another try, another dance? Is it too late ... (too late, too late) For another ... Summer of Love? Fashions come, and fashions will go Here comes another circus show Just another do-si-do You’ve seen it all, for all you know Everyone’s hurt, their ego’s bruised So hard to fix, so much to lose Don’t look back, you’ll just get confused Here’s a love bomb, who’ll light the fuse? It’s getting dark, failing light Could be ... the end is in sight Don’t give up, c’mon, show some fight Maybe this time we’ll get it right

Drive On 03:12
On we drive into the settin’ sun Blood red sky to the west Head straight down the Boulevard Keep your cards close to your chest Just keep hopin’ for the best Find an all-night parking lot, Then meet me at the bar Leave the briefcase with the hat check girl And the product in the car Please tell me you locked the car... Don’t keep askin’ me questions Do the deal and we’ll be gone Stay in your lane, and keep singin’ this refrain Drive on, Drive on, Drive on Sweaty palms on the steering wheel Heart poundin’ in your chest? Calm down and take a couple of these Soon we’ll be out of this mess And just keep hopin’ for the best Too late to cut and run You know the reason why Can’t hide in the City of Angels, And you’re all out of alibis And your dreams have already died

The truth is, I lie all the time Family, friend, or client, just get in line I lie even more, cause I use pills I’ll be out the door, leaving you with my bills I like to drive down country roads With my windows rolled all the way down Drive real fast down country roads So my lies can’t be found Lord no not me sir Lord no not me Lord no not me sir Lord no not me The truth is, I lie all the time Except for the times, something’s on the line I lie even more, cause I found the Lord I beg forgiveness, from the state’s mighty sword I like to drive down country roads With my windows rolled all the way down Drive real fast down country roads So my lies can’t be found

Tallest Palm 03:33
Sunset on the patio, cocktails by the pool Tiki torches flickering, the moon shines pale and cool I watch him pull you closer with a kiss and a caress Using every trick he knows, he’s desperate to impress Cuz when he pulls you close, and you gaze into his eyes You tell how you want him, and other lover’s lies Meet me at the tallest palm Come to me with your red dress on I’ll be waiting with my pistol drawn I’ll be waiting at the tallest palm The scent of rising passion, fills the evening breeze He can have you just for now, do what he please Cuz when he pulls you close, and you gaze into his eyes You tell how you want him, and other lover’s lies Meet me at the tallest palm Come to me with your red dress on I’ll be waiting with my pistol drawn I’ll be waiting at the tallest palm

I’m in love with the world, now the winds is in a whirl The clock is ticking down, the jewels fall off the crown Out of the blue, and over night, a spark in the dark, turn out the light Now’s the witching time, riding broom, spitting fire Oh the running kind, you raised a king then let him fly You’re dancing with the devil, hey now my my Say a prayer on Christmas Day, when the wise men lose their way Can’t tell right from wrong, we play along The knights and dragons failed to bring, the rotten harvest to their king Double trouble, never say goodbye Sometimes I shy away from my dreams that are in play My senses steer me wrong, we play along Come judgement day for the king, you failed to bring the precious ring Was there any doubt, hey now my my Bless me father I have sinned, I wouldn’t miss this for anything There will come a day and I will bow and I will pay It’s good to be alive
