Lazy Boy Blues
02:35
|
|||
|
have i made it?
or just faked it?
undeserved peace and quiet
am i crazy?
or just lazy?
i can't just wing it all my life
or can i?
cos i'm getting what i wanted but it don't feel right
the days i laid to rest keep me awake at night
if you think this is easy
then slip on my shoes
spend all your time
playing lazy boy blues
it isn't in my nature
to feel greater
iknock myself down
just to deal with the pressure
but i'm so efficient
that now my worries seem distant
it's like a part of myself has gone
and gone forever
however
i'm getting what i wanted but it don't feel right
the days i laid to rest keep me awake at night
if you think this is easy
then slip on my shoes
spend all your time
playing lazy boy blues
spend all your time
playing lazy boy blues
spend all your time
playing lazy boy blues
spend all your time
playing lazy boy blues
playing lazy boy blues

you know it's gonna take some time
to get a little peace of mind
between the normal and sublime
is the place that you're trying to find
and you know
that it's time
to answer the questions on your mind
so ask yourself
what do you want to do?
and the world will wait for you
for you
for you
for you
don't credit the divine
for a universal design
just a human need to define
what was naturally aligned
and you know
that it's time
to answer the questions on your mind
so ask yourself
what do you want to do?
and the world will wait for you
for you
for you
for you
(face melting solo)
there's no need to draw a line
between souls intertwined
no higher powers to decide
what is yours and what is mine
and you know
that it's time
to answer the questions on your mind
so ask yourself
what do you want to do?
and the world will wait for you
for you
for you
for you
for you
for you
for you
for you

Let It Be Right
03:52
|

|
my love will always
be there for you
any time, any place
just as true
sweeter than any song
or any word i could write
but is it sweet enough?
is it good?
is it right?
dadadadum
and i know i can be
a handful at times
but let it be known: i'm yours
and you're mine
so if you feel it in your heart
and your mind doesn't put up a fight
then let it be sweet
let it be good
let it be right
dadadadum
you know i'd wait forever
for us to be together
you know i'm going nowhere
just like i told you
i'm always gonna be your man
there when you need a hand
an ear to tell all your troubles
and a heart that can understand
i'd give it all up for you
do anything you'd ask me to
this world is a lonely place
more than i ever knew
but this is good
this is sweet
this is right

getting older ain't so easy
good times are over before you're ready
and my love is such a sensible girl
knew she had yet to see the world
so she told me that she loved me
but had to go and do what felt right
she said goodnight
so my darling
i know you're out there
and you're probably doing fine
but i miss you
i really miss you
and i'd love to know that you're alright
so until the day that you and me
cross paths again out on the street
i'll ask anyone that'll listen to me
have you seen her?
is she happy?
this is more than feeling lonely
you were my sunbeam, my one and only
i miss the look in your eyes when you'd smile at me
meeting you from work and coming round for tea
staying up all night, talking shit
not going to sleep
but it wasn't meant to be
and i can't blame you
i've been there before
it's hard to hold onto the feeling
when it doesn't feel right anymore
doesn't feel like it did before
so let the world turn
let the sun shine
you've got your world
and baby, i've got mine
and maybe someday
I will cross your mind
and if you'd ever like to say hello
then you know I've always got time
for you
so my darling
i know you're out there
and you're probably doing fine
but i miss you
i really miss you
and i'd love to know that you're alright
so until the day that you and me
cross paths again out on the street
i'll ask anyone that'll listen to me
have you seen her?
have you seen her?
have you seen her?
is she happy?

On A Weird One
03:56
|
|||
|
i like to open the door
and take my thoughts outside
i don't like them out there
so i come back inside
so i sit on the couch
sit and watch the TV
get the man on the screen
to think my thoughts for me
and i ain't having no fun
i'm on a weird one
it's harder to see the sun
when i'm on a weird one
i like to pick myself up
and take my thoughts upstairs
i don't like them up there
so i come back downstairs
when i get out the stuff
i always keep it low-key
get the smoke in my lungs
to think my thoughts for me
and i ain't having no fun
i'm on a weird one
there's not much to be done
when i'm on a weird one
(solo)
and i ain't having no fun
i'm on a weird one
it's harder to see the sun
much harder
so much harder
when i'm on a weird one
when i'm on a weird one
when i'm on a weird one
when i'm on a weird one
when i'm on a weird one
when i'm on a weird one
when i'm on a weird one

Today's Alien
05:01
|
|||
|
nowhere near the boy that i used to be
the changing face of human suffering
a broken heart and a stoner's memory
are the bridges burned from here to yesterday
i've seen the true nature of the life we lead
and now i pay the price for my curiosity
a stranger's face reflecting back at me
the consequence of lost humanity
oh, what it means
to be
homo sapien
all my friends
were all
today's alien
and these are the growing paints of life i've come to see
like the ever fading scars on the trunk of an old oak tree
if everyone's a slave to simplicity
then those against the grain are truly free
oh, what it means
to be
homo sapien
all my friends
were all
today's alien
what it means
to be
homo sapien
all my friends
were all
today's alien
today's alien
today's alien
today's alien
oh, what it means

Peace
07:44
|
|||
|
hello
goodbye
are words that one cannot deny
goodmorning
goodnight
you can close your eyes and not lose sight
get up
lay down
just keep your feet upon the ground
go through
or around
either way it can be found
you gotta suffer
to succeed
face your fears
to dream
happiness is a momentary feeling of release
so find peace
find peace
night
and day
are more than any man could say
life
and death
are all the world has to confess
the clock is ticking
but don't watch it turn
we all must learn
that a good life is earned
you gotta suffer
to succeed
face your fears
to dream
happiness is a momentary feeling of release
so find peace
find peace
you gotta suffer
to succeed
face your fears
to dream
happiness is a momentary feeling of release
so find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace
find peace

Lone Ranger
05:54
|

|
he takes a step on the dusty road
one eye open and the other closed
a little drunk and a little stoned
a tired mind can be a heavy load
another corner, another street
faces pass looking incomplete
the cool moonlight over the desert heat
a tired mind walking on tired feet
you can live
or die
or just get high
you can live
or die
or just get high
you can live
or die
or just get high
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
on walks the man who cannot rest
a cowards price put on his head
the weight of the world was his arrest
and one more smoke was his last request
so you can ride and leave your past behind
and seek salvation of another kind
so bite the bullet and walk the line
and you might see the end this time
you can live
or die
or just get high
you can live
or die
or just get high
you can live
or die
or just get high
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
(solo)
you can live
or die
or just get high
you can live
or die
or just get high
you can live
or die
or just get high
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time
you're on your own this time

Human Dumb, Human Tough
04:12
|
|||
|
say what you want of me
and i won't listen, probably
cos i'm the enemy
of my own sympathy
and i've never had a thick skin before
and i won't play the victim anymore
so when you get knocked down
get back up
cos human dumb
but human tough
so take what you will from me
i'm always looking to please
but you won't find me on my knees
looking for attention i so desperately need
and i've never had a thick skin before
and i won't play the victim anymore
so when you think i'm wrong
call my bluff
cos human dumb
but human tough
and i could lay down and show you
every trick up my sleeve
but that's no way to be
living obviously
and the movie that you're starring in
upon the silver screen
is only in 3D
a happy end is no guarantee
so you can think what you think of me
and i will focus on my own reality
we all see what we wanna see
and mine's a place most heavenly
and i've never had a thick skin before
and i won't play the victim anymore
so when you get knocked down
get back up
cos human dumb
but human tough
peace and love
and all that stuff
human dumb
but human tough

Livin' Like A Pimp
04:37
|
|||
|
it could be over
it could keep going
but just remember
there's no way of knowing
all the problems
all the outcomes
just gotta face them
weigh up your options
there's no use waiting
on your dreams to come true
just gotta face them
show the world what you can do
no more tears
no more fears
just turn off the sound of the world around you
and the answer will come clear
and it's alright
it's alright
when you're living like a pimp in your own paradise
and it's alright
it's alright
when you're living like a pimp in your own paradise
and it's alright
it's alright
when you're living like a pimp in your own paradise
and it's alright
it's alright
when you're living like a pimp in your own paradise
don't listen to anybody else except one's self
cos if they don't know you then how will they know whats best?
and the feelings come and go, doesn't matter how slow
if it's all in your head
and it's alright
it's alright
when you're living like a pimp in your own paradise
