1.	Earthbound 02:47	lyrics	buy track
Cut my hair all the way to my scalp Earthbound I was unaware it was a cry out for help Earthbound And I didn’t care if my boss turned me out Earthbound I just need to know my two feet are on the ground Earthbound Needed a breath of a little air so I went around the block Earthbound Didn’t realize I was still on the clock Earthbound I got distracted and ended up around the docks Earthbound Spent the rest of the afternoon skipping dots Earthbound I’m wide awake I’m half asleep I’m fully framed I’m nearly beat A total product Of a grounded box Parcel post And earthbound Like a ghost
2.	Early To Bed, Early To Rise 02:39	lyrics	buy track
I was half awake and half in a dream When you were still here with me We always knew it would never be When you were still here with me I never wanted to think of all the times that we had I never wanted to be thinking back on everything we did Early to bed, early to rise Wish you were here Well I sing my songs all day From when you were here with me We always knew it would never be When you were still here with me I never wanted to be all the things I couldn’t be I never wanted to think ahead all the dreams that I had Early to bed, early to rise Wish you were here I never wanted to be all the things I want to see I never wanted to be everything that I want to be Early to bed, early to rise Wish you were here

Parlez! Tell me something I don't already know Tell me something to make my heart go Boom boom boom Parlez! Tell me something I wanna hear Tell me that you'll always be near Boom boom boom Parlez! Tell me something I don't already know Tell me something to make my heart go Boom boom boom Parlez! Take me somewhere so far away Make me wish that I could stay Hey hey hey I had a little girl She was the best around But she put me down So I lived to tell another tale Parlez! Your words are like whispers in the wind Hope I fall in love again...
5.	Sugarcoated 03:06	lyrics	buy track
I’ve tried to keep it bottled up inside But feelings won’t be denied So be kind I’ve had a lot on my mind Sometimes it’s hard to leave the past behind So if I fly off the handle Push you away Give a little less than I take I think of you always in the choices I make So be kind I’ve had so much on my mind Sometimes it’s hard to leave the past behind And I’ve tried to keep it bottled up inside But feelings won’t be denied Some songs are sweet and fine Sugarcoated like breakfast cereal
6.	The U.S.P. 04:42	lyrics	buy track
You spend money you could ill afford On a useless fight with a false reward And the banner in your own backyard Is a useless flag for a useless cause And so you put on your black shoes When the fight is coming When the fight is coming You put on your fighting clothes In the Untied States of Pandemica The Untied States of Pandemica The Untied States of Pandemica The Untied States of Pandemica Little Johnny brought a virus home Grandpa’s plugged in all alone And it’s quarantine – no vaccine No vaccine – quarantine I can’t deny I ever really knew All the damage and the tragedy these murderers could do Must be something in their motivation hidden from view In the meantime keep on jamming on the ICU you Red staters Truth haters Race baiters Mind your distances There’s a killer running free An easy cure for your mortality And when the fight is over We’ll cut off your fighting clothes In the Untied States of Pandemica The Untied States of Pandemica The Untied States of Pandemica The Untied States of Pandemica
7.	Steady Diet Of The News 04:14	lyrics	buy track
Do you wake up feeling anxious Do you wake up feeling tired Do you wake up from a fever dream Already feeling wired When you rise up in the morning Do you have to find a fix Is there something in the cycle Is there something that you missed Is your stamina and ventilation Keeping up with you Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news Are you fed up with the work week Are you done with fire drills Are you hoping for inheritance To help you pay the bills Do you hunger for distraction From another nameless day For your addiction to the headlines It’s your spirit that will pay Is your energy and circulation Keeping pace with you Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news So you wake up in the morning Check the updates on your phone Read a nonexistent newspaper Before you leave your home All the experts have digested All the news you need to know So you feast on information From your space radio Have you found a strong provider Who is customized for you Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news Are you looking for a conflict Are you looking for a fight If you’re lucky you will find one On the local news tonight And if you take a look within yourself I think I know what you will find A lot of useless information A lot of emptiness inside Before you know it you’ll be so far gone You’ll have nothing left to lose Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news
8.	Gone Gone Gone Gone Gone 03:44	lyrics	buy track
Station wagon with a seven-inch speaker Gone gone gone gone gone Tune in the radio signal’s getting weaker Gone gone gone gone gone Had an interview made a good impression Gone gone gone gone gone Feeling kinda tired take a vacation Gone gone gone gone gone Hold onto everything is muddle in your mind Hang onto memories and leave the rest behind Cellar door has a power of persuasion Gone gone gone gone gone Crawl spaces and other nether regions Gone gone gone gone gone Hold onto everything is muddle in your mind Hang onto memories and leave the rest behind Life force floats in the forest and Feels so fine if you take some time to Consider miracles Whiz-bang moments If you only have a minute chase some fireflies in the field Station wagon with a seven-inch speaker Gone gone gone gone gone Tune in the radio the signal’s getting weaker Gone gone gone gone gone
9.	Bird In Honeysuckle 03:29	lyrics	buy track
I found a dollar on the side of the road I look around to see if someone is watching I leave another one to lighten my load Feels like a little lucky omen Today I’ll probably pick up the phone Maybe my heart is finally open A small step into the unknown For too long I’ve felt intimidated ‘Cause you’re a star And I’m a bird in honeysuckle There’s no need for feeling lonely and blue Turn around find someone who’s looking for you The light is turning green nobody’s home He must be all lost in a daydream A rude reminder from the car next door I hear the horn that someone is squeezing Today I finally picked up the phone For too long I’ve been intimidated A small step into the unknown Maybe my heart was finally ready You were a star I was a bird in honeysuckle There’s no need for feeling lonely and blue Turn around find someone who’s looking for you The sun is shining on the side of the house Doesn’t mean I won’t pack an umbrella I see a silhouette of you in your blouse I’m such a lucky fella, yeah!

11.	Consuela 03:26	lyrics	buy track
Late summer evening Middle of August Temperature falls That’s when I think of Consuela At least this is the name that I gave her If only in my mind If only in my mind I drive to the schoolyard Lay on the asphalt Smile as I look at the sky In a cloud is the face of Consuela At least this is the face that I gave her If only in my mind I see her if only in the sky All that I want All that I need And all that I know Baby I’ve tried To see through your eyes I’ve given her everything Everything Everything It’s four in the morning I wake up yawning Wondering where you may be I imagine you sleeping, Consuela Maybe dreaming of us while the daylight Is several hours away Daylight is several hours away All that I want All that I need And all that I know Baby I’ve tried To see through your eyes I’ve given her everything Everything Everything
12.	Mother Hochman 05:05	lyrics	buy track
Sometimes I wake up in the morning Yawning boring Just another day on the farm Then I remember Mother Hochman Dancing clowning Boom-shak-a-laka-boom Maybe today I can go fishing Tackle open fieldhouse Burn it all down I can’t afford another setback Pushback way back Going going gone Mother Hochman Mother Hochman Pumping up your belly Just by cranking your arm Mother Hochman Mother Hochman Psychedelic sun Casting shadows of light upon my life Oh light upon my life I found a message in a bottle Rocket red glare Better put on my shades I wait around for Uncle Albert Admiral Halsey Back seat of my car Maybe tomorrow there is nothing but rain Oh liquid sunshine never caused me no pain I found a message in a bottle Rocket red glare Better put on my shades I cant’ afford another setback Push back way back Going going gone Then I remember Mother Hochman Dancing clowning Boom-shaka-laka-boom
13.	Gimme Distance 03:39	lyrics	buy track
I took a chance Didn’t know what it would cost me Went out with friends But they were acting really frosty Gimme distance You look alright But I don’t know who your friends are Cruisin’ around In your Cadillac clown car They never listen To a single word I say I know they hear me But the sound goes another way You look ok But I don’t know who your friends are Cruisin’ around In your Cadillac clown car They never listen To a single thing I say I know they hear me But the sound goes another way I never thought Our little fling would get messy I changed your life At the minute that you met me Gimme distance I’ll tear you up And I’ll put you back together again Gimme distance
14.	Funny Paper 02:32	lyrics	buy track
If every finch is gold And every jay is blue How come I can’t spend A little time with you Throw your funny paper on the bed And walk away Light me up Put me out Like it was ever in doubt Light me up Put me out Like it was ever in doubt Light me up Put me out If every finch is gold And every jay is blue How come I can’t spend A little time with you Throw your funny paper on the bed And walk away You know we’ve seen this movie Many times before I guess you don’t want to See this movie anymore Throw your funny paper on the bed And walk away Lift me up Pull me down I was always around Lift me up Pull me down I was always around Light me up Put me out Like it was ever in doubt Light me up Put me out Like it was ever in doubt Throw your funny paper on the bed And walk away Early days together (Well that was a blast) We fell in love forever (I guess that didn’t last) Throw your funny paper on the bed And walk away
15.	Tiger Moon 02:12	lyrics	buy track
Leaves are green Even when they can’t be seen And there’s a smell of gasoline On the fire Tiger moon Why’d you disappear so soon Do you think I’m just a soul Here for hire Fishing pole Tackle box Sleeping bag Tent I’d throw my job away But I gotta pay my rent Leaves are brown Ever since you’re not around And there’s no fear of falling down In the fire Tiger moon Why’d you disappear so soon Do you think I’m just a soul Here for hire Money fund Auto pay Credit card Check I’d cash my job away But I gotta pay my rent Trees are bare When the world’s a Frigidaire It’s as if they take their hair off And hide it Tiger moon Just an overblown balloon Gonna reach out from my room And ride it
16.	And We Drove Off Into The Night 05:10	lyrics	buy track
You were glad to see me again In a blue suede skirt And Sleater-Kinney pin And we drove off into the night And we drove off into the night And we drove off into the night Before we knew where we were going I was glad to see you again With a blue tattoo And skinny jeans And we drove off into the night And we drove off into the night And we drove off into the night Before we knew where we were going Said farewell to Olympia And our lives began In a speeding car And we drove off into the night And we drove off into the night And we drove off into the night Before we knew where we were going

Sound travels everywhere All you really have to do is hear it Sound travels in your ear You don’t even need to be near it For you Want me to be true Want me to be there Want me everywhere Want me to be near you So only I can hear you When you call my name Sound travels through a phone Sorry to hear you’re so disappointed Sound travels through a wall I swear those two must be double-jointed For you Want me to be true Want me to be there Want me everywhere Want me to be near you So only I can hear you When you call my name I hear you call me in the daytime I hear you call me in the night And when you call me in the evening Then I know everything’s alright Sound travels everywhere All you really have to do is feel it Sound travels in your ear You don’t need a speaker to reveal it For you Want me to be true Want me to be there Want me everywhere Want me to be near you So only I can hear you When you call my name

15 years of making pay Saving up for another day Need to find some time alone Find some time to meditate I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart Every night I’m on the air Pretend I haven’t got a care Even in the darkest days Your faith takes my breath away but I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart 4 long years of lies and shit We tried to make the best of it Insult to sensibilities Now finally we’re dancing in the streets I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break my heart I didn’t know it would break
