Detouring America With Horns

You know the way to my enemies
You keep your eyes on my enemies
Calling me backwards
Stringing along my heart (that way)

You're on your way to my enemies
You're moving in on my memories
Calling me over
Taking this heart of mine (away)

Upside-down

Mary calls from far away
sure there is another
Walks the floor cause she can't settle down
Waiting for the phone to ring
Stuck inside the bedroom
Drinks too much to make the room spin round
When she sits down

No one knows the world is upside-down
Watches how it spins around
No one knows the world is upside-down

Knowing if she'll just admit
one revealing detail
She can't hide her state of mind behind
She sits down

No one knows the world is upside-down
Watches how it spins around
No one knows the world is upside-down

Everybody wants to be the lucky guy
They're just uncertain how to please her

Everybody stops to see the setting sun
They're not just looking for the time

Caring not what people say at other people's parties
Mary finds someone and settles down
She sits down

No one knows the world is upside-down
Watches how it spins around
No one knows the world is upside-down

Mushroom Cloud of Hiss

See you walking sometimes, circumstances start to happen after awhile
and it's starting to seem like there's nothing left
like there's nothing left at all
Well it drags me down, it's pulling me down
lower, lower
I feel it pullin, here it comes

So come on take the time,
come on, to make up your mind,
come on, Let's give it all away

Starts to wear me down
And I can't get it to stop
When's it gonna stop
Look on your face, just the look on your face
Makes me feel all a little down, down inside

Come on, take the time, come on, make up your mind, come on
Let's give it all away

Come on, take the time, come on, make up your mind, come on
Let's give it all away

Back To Top

Swing for Life

Oh, true rider, fasten me
I saw a mystery, mystery

How you cast your reins aside,
and sidle up to me, up to me

Sweet obsession, devil's den
Lassos my blind eye
My blind eye, my blind eye

Oh, true rider, nothing's lost
Take me for a ride, for a ride

Back To Top

Five-cornered Drone

Time waits for reason
but there's no reason
Things just go wrong, they always do
Nothing works out right, though you try and try

You can search, you can look all around you
With both eyes open, but it doesn't matter
It's always the same, it's always like that,
you try and try and try

Back To Top

Some Kinda Fatigue

Sitting in a parked car
Trying hard to smile
But I've been looking for one good reason
But I haven't found it yet

Took awhile, well, what's it gonna be?
The way it's got to be
I know it's out there
One good reason
But I haven't found it yet

I'm stepping away, stepping away from you
Some weird kinda fatigue
Someday I'll find it,
One good reason
But I haven't found it yet

Back To Top

Always Something

Well, it's raining outside
At least it's gotta be somewhere
There's a long dark cloud just moving around
Moving around
Over nothing town
And it's always something
And it's always a touch of the same

Well, the light is on
And I have to see you
But it wasn't glowing
And it wasn't on
I'd love to know
How much it glows

And it's always something

And it's always something
And it's always something, touch of the same
And it's always something
And it's always something, touch of the same
touch of the same, touch of the same

Back To Top

86-second Blowout

See myself as a bug on the table
Find a way, but I gotta come down,
When I do there's gonna be some decisions to make

See yourself as a weight on my shoulders
Shruggin' it off, will I still fall down
Back it up, let's see if that matters,
I don't mind

Everyone's got a million opinions,
1 or 2 are gonna be alright
Let's take a chance and just see if this is one of those

Back To Top

Out the Window

I'm sitting round like I got nothing to do
Got something to say, but not to you, not now
I'm just waiting for the back and forth that won't begin
Back to back, that won't seem to end
I'm here waiting for a sign

Everything goes out the window
Watching you walk out the door tonight

When my hope falls, bounces off you, hits the floor
splits into 2 or 3 pieces.
Well, I'm still waiting on it,
down and down to the empty space where it lays
Where it falls apart
I'm stuck waiting for some sign.

Everything goes out the window
Watching you walk out the door

I wrote a letter to my oldest friend,
forgot it for awhile.
Then on second thought, I read it through and threw it out,
I'm through waiting on a sign.

Back To Top

Satellite

A lonely walk until the heaven's break
Come back home and see what's changed
Flipped the TV on and every channel's got some satellite

A broken shoe to practice walking straight
Take a little step and stop to think
About the planets and the atmosphere
and the satellites

Wait for the day to come, the day to go
Take all the needles from your hair
See how the things that happen
never really ever happen with a thought unaware

Around the corner, a while to zero in
And feel for where it ought to be
If not the nuts and bolts and that'll come
Like a satellite
Wait for the day to go, the day to come...
