Where'd We Go Wrong?

You take a look at the dawn
When you blink it is gone
Lost like the fawn
That sang nature's song
It's all dead
We've got no chance
Global warming is real
Let's dance
I was reading the newspaper yesterday
Why why Mr President do you say
That our science is a lie
There are facts you can't deny
But were never good at facing the truth
Were ya? Were ya?
And you never wanted to accept the facts
Did ya? Did ya?
But you were never good at hiding your thoughts
Were ya? Were ya?
You never ever thought you'd be attacked
Did ya? Did ya?
You take a look at the dawn
When you blink it is gone
Lost like the fawn
That sang nature's song
Where have you gone?
Where have you gone?
My friend. My friend.
Where'd we go wrong?
Where'd we go wrong?
It's all dead
We've got no chance
Global warming is real
Let's dance
Where have you gone?
Where have you gone?
My friend. My friend.
Where'd we go wrong?
Where'd we go wrong?

Light
03:15

When things go bad, I'll be here
To let you know it's alright
When it gets dark at night
And the shadows come
I'll be your light
Your eyes
Over-sized and wide
Just like an ocean to me
I get lost in the sea
Just know I'll be there for you
In every shade of grey
And every hue of blue
When things go bad, I'll be here
To let you know it's alright
When it gets dark at night
And the shadows come
I'll be your light
When it get's bad and it get's dark
When things are bad you fall apart
When it get's bad it breaks your heart
So I'll be your light
When things go bad, I'll be here
To let you know it's alright
When it gets dark at night
And the shadows come
I'll be your light

I Am a River
02:10
|

A river knows no time
So of time it doesn't care
You cannot hurt a river
So it has no wounds to bare
When you are a river you can go anywhere so
I am a river
A river wastes nothing
Cherishes every single breath
Rivers slow but never die
So rivers don't fear death
So I don't fear it either
Disregard dying's shibboleth for
I am a river
A river is at its source
And the streams of which it flows
Every glistening tributary
And the ocean where it goes
Of all the things I've learned
The one thing I truly know's that
I am a river

Chemo

Chemo makes the flowers beautiful
Look at you, look at your eyes
Full of hidden pride
Your head is so shiny and that's ok
Don't let it make you grey
You're pretty anyway, cause
Chemo makes the flowers beautiful
I promise one day, things'll be ok
Believe the words I say
Lookin at you 'n you're lookin down
I'll get you outta this town
Turn your frown upside down
Chemo makes the flowers beautiful

Left my love scattered on the floor
For you to find when you get home
Cherish every little note
Before I walk through the door
Happy Valentine's Day, I miss you
Like a loyal pup I will wait
Everyday I hope and wish
Dreaming of your loving kiss
My will won't ever break
Happy Valentine's Day, I miss you
Love Lovely, I love you honey
Everybody knows
That daily my love grows
All I have to say to she is
Happy Valentine's Day, I miss you

Good Spirits
02:16
|

|
Lost my shoes
Lost my mind
Lost my groove
Lost some time
But it's ok
It always seems
That the world
Is always working
Working so hard
Against me
And I guess that I'm ok
Dropped my hat
Dropped my keys
Kicked my cat
Scraped my knees
But it's ok
It always seems
That the world
Is working against me
But I just keep
Good spirits
And I guess that I'm ok
Left my notes
Left my dreams
Left my coat
Ripped the seams
Of my jeans
It always seems
That things
Never go my way
But I keep saying
It's ok
Bad day
Today
Left late
Hate bait
Why do I try?
Found my shoes
Found my mind
Found my groove
Found some time
So I'm alright

Smile More
03:04
|
|||
|
Just you and me
Positively
Far as the eye can see
Positively
Like a melody
I hear clouds sing
Like a remedy
It's a good feeling
What makes you happy?
As far as the eye can see
Love, you and me
Positively
Like a melody
I hear clouds sing
Like a remedy
It's a good feeling
Golden sunshine door
I should smile more
What's to be sad for?
Silver lining floor
Like a melody
I hear clouds sing
Like a remedy
It's a good feeling

Dead Flowers
02:33
|
|||
|
Everyday I walk outside in the garden
I see your flowers sitting there
Dead as disco, dead as shit
But I still grab my pail and care
I'm still
Watering dead flowers
No matter how decomposed they become
No matter how withered and shriveled up
I still feed them fertilizer
I still share a spare Budweiser
I'm still
Watering dead flowers
Every day I walk outside in the garden
To water your dead flowers
With no hope, I've got some hope
Hanging from little ropes
I'm still
Watering dead flowers

Sad People
02:04
|
|||
|
Sad people don't understand
You gotta feel bad for them
They don't understand
Lonely people are never happy
A symptom of negativity
Ridden with sadness
Look at all the sad people
Jealous people never win
And envy is a sin
A poison of the mind
Hateful people don't progress
All they do is stress
And hate themselves
Look at all the sad people
Gotta get away from all these sad people

Petroleum Jelly
02:49
|
|||
|
I went outside this morning
And smelt some petroleum jelly
It made me sick
It was very smelly, petroleum jelly
Then I sat under a watermelon fall
But I left when I heard a licorice bird call
I've never seen your God before
But I have praised it
Felt the worlds weight on top of me
And then I raised it
But I got stuck in an Alaskan tar pit
And I had no place at all to sit
I ate a Korean apple pear
It was from Fiji
Strawberry hard candies
A lemon squeegee
They were fruit based artifacts
I like to call them fruitifacts
They helped me outta the muck
And I snuck into Canada
I went to the zoo in Ontario
And got married to a panda
I started work as a bamboo farmer
Working for 10 Euros and hour

Pennsylvania Frostbite
04:55
|
|||
|
I can hear you crying now
Even from so far away
I wish that I could make up for
All the stupid mistakes I made
But I'm just a stupid kid
Yeah just a stupid kid
We can stop talking if you want to
Even though it'd make me sad
Burn my sweater if you want to
I'd completely understand
We're both just stupid kids
Yeah just stupid kids
I guess this is goodbye
The thought gives me a fright
I think I'm gonna cry
From that Pennsylvania frostbite
We're all just stupid kids
We're all just stupid kids
We're all just stupid kids
We're all just stupid kids

What Humans Sound Like
03:34
|
|||
|
Do you know the hum of a radiator's song?
Or that buzz from a television that's been left on?
While it's an acquired taste that many dislike
I quite enjoy what humans sound like
While we used to sound more natural
What we sound like is very cultural
An industrial sound, an industrial face
I love the sound of human waste
Gotta love the sound of a busy city street
Gotta love the sound of busy business men's busy feet
While it's a noise that the orthodox despise
I find much comfort in what humans sound like
While we used to sound more natural
What we sound like is very cultural
An industrial sound, an industrial face
I love the sound of human waste
I don't know where the forests go
When the people move to the city
I don't know where the dead ducks go
When the lake freezes over
While it's an acquired taste that many dislike
While it's a noise that the orthodox despise
I quite enjoy what humans sound like
I find much comfort in what humans sound like

I get lost in the words you say
I get lost in my brain
Things are bad sometimes
It makes us sad sometimes
And that's ok
I'll be here every way
I'll be here at every low
I'll be here when you get out of the hospital
I'll be here everyday
And every night
I'll be here
Every way
I will always sing to you
Even when my guitar is outta tune
I don't care it's ok
For you it'll always play
Everyday
Every way

A Song for a Funeral
01:16
|
|||
|
Hey, take it from me
Hey, don't take it personally
Escape is at the end of the tunnel
And the tunnel is a double barrel shotgun
Hey, take it from me
But, don't take it personally
Don't take it personally
