"The Moma Dance"

"The Moma Dance"


And all throughout I gaze and glimpse you
Loving never did convince you
I see you when you're all alone
It's like a person I've not known

The moment ends though I feel winds
Blowing differently than ever before
And they're pushing me further from shore

A frothy cap the steady slap
Of lines against the rail
A biting rain take in the main

Up the rigging take in sail mind the skipper we'll not fail
He'll bring out wine all will be fine just hear the order watch the sail
The moment ends

"The Sloth"

"The Sloth"


They call me the sloth
Way down in the ghetto
Italian Spaghetti
Singing falsetto
Sleeping all day
Rip Van Winklin'
Spend my nights in bars
Glasses tinklin'

I'm so bad
He's so nasty
Ain't got no friends
Real outcasty
Stay out of my way
Or you'll end up a cripple
I'll take this piece of paper
And slice your nipple

They call me the sloth
Way down in the ghetto
Italian Spaghetti
Singing falsetto
Sleeping all day
Rip Van Winklin'
Spend my nights in bars
Glasses tinklin'

Colonel Forbin stared at the fourteen bars that stood at the end of the cell. He ran his hand across the cold, damp dungeon wall and thought again about the door. He had traveled through the door out of necessity. Once he knew it existed, he simply couldn't leave it alone. Just like Wilson. Just like Tela. Just like Errand Wolfe. And he sat in the dungeon, and he realized that he was back again through the door. And through the tiny window in the corner of his cell, he heard the distant strains.

Errand
Errand
Errand
Errand

And from atop the mountain Icculus looked down on all that went on below him. And he smiled.

"The Squirming Coil"

"The Squirming Coil"


The Squirming Coil of sunset
I keep within my reach
Tried yesterday to get away
and hitchhiked to the beach

I saw Satan on the beach
trying to catch a ray
He wasn't quite the speed of light
and the squirming coil
it got away....

The muscles flex the mother's ring
She fastens children to her king
and sends him down the crooked street
When he returns, the birth's complete

Jimmy holds the Tannis root
The forest's tasty nectar shoot
The sun tips off the monarch's suit
from sequined sash to shiny boot

"I'd like to lick the coil some day
Like Icarus, who had to pay
with melting wax and feathers brown
He tasted it on his way down"

Stun the puppy!
Burn the whale!
Bark a scruff and go to jail!
Forge the coin and lick the stamp!
Little Jimmy's off to camp

"The Wedge"

"The Wedge"


We're bobbing on the surface
and the shadow glides below
They say she feels my heartbeat
Oh..But how I'll never know
That it's the ocean flowing in our veins
Oh..That it's the salt that's in our tears
Oh..'Cause we could have come so very far
Oh..In at least as many years!
Take the highway through the Great Divide [x2]
I'm building you a pyramid
With limestone blocks so large
I drag them from the mountain top
You'll need a two car garage
And it's the ocean flowing in our veins
Oh..That it's the salt that's in our tears
Oh..Cause we could have come so very far
Oh..In at least as many years
Take the highway through the Great Divide [x2]
Cause it's the ocean flowing in our veins
Oh..That it's the salt that's in our tears
Oh..Cause we could have come so very far
Oh..In at least as many years
Take the highway through the Great Divide

"Theme From The Bottom"

"Theme From The Bottom"


I feed from the bottom, you feed from the top
I live upon morsels you happen to drop
And coffee that somehow leaks out of your cup
If nothing comes down then I'm forced to swim up
On the way upwards, the colors come back
But all along the bottom is blue, grey, and black
The darkness is cold and perception goes wrong
And the night seems to go on incredibly long
So I ask you why if I'm swimming by,
Don't you see anything you'd like to try?
Pantomime mixtures of heaven and earth
Jumbled events that have less than no worth
Time in the forest to dig under rocks
Or float in the ocean asleep in a box
Or sink just below all the churning and froth
And swim to the light source or fly like a moth
So toss away stuff you don't need in the end
But keep what's important and know who's your friend
So I ask you why if I'm swimming by,
Don't you see anything that you'd like to try?
If I'm swimming by
From the bottom, from the top [x8]

"Things People Do"

"Things People Do"


People always surprising
The things that they do
You think you got em' figured out
And they'll show you what you knew
At first they may seem rational
But wait a month or two
'Cause there's just no explaining
The things people do

I had to get away
I was losing my interest
Instead of expanding my world
I was just scanning pinterest
So I left all these people
I though that I knew
'Cause there's just no explaining
The things people do

I left for the road
'Cause I needed the mileage
Brought what I owned
'Cause I thought it was stylish
Well I don't miss the folks
That I just left behind me
'Cause there's places I'm going
Kinda doubt they will find me

I never really felt
That my life was in danger
But a shot to the gut
By the hands of a stranger
Started me thinking
What I already knew
That there's just know explaining
The things people do

Well I found a new place quickly
I caught me a fast one
The people 'round here
Are the same as the last one
So I guess I'll keep moving
And find a new crew
'Cause there's just no explaining
The things people do

"Thunderhead"

"Thunderhead"


I need a new way to express
Myself so you don't need to guess
What otherwise I'd say aloud
And watch it float just like a cloud
High up above you like a thunderhead
But you would just look down instead
And wait 'til foggy skies abate
And vapor clouds all dissipate
And when with them all my words for you
Have softly sublimated too
And you'll just hope that I've moved on
So you'll look up and find me gone

"Tide Turns"

"Tide Turns"


When you're lost in the darkness
And the loneliness cuts so deep
When every breath is suffering
And you're longing for sleep
You don't have to be alone
I've still got a kind word to spare
I've still have an ear to listen
I've got time
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
Yes I will
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
Till the tide turns...
When the wolf is at your door
And the mirror holds your nightmare
There's no need to hide your tears
If it's too much for you to bear
You don't have to be alone
I'll still always be here for you
Together we can make it through
We've got time, yes we do
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
Yes I will
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
Till the tide turns...
You don't have to be alone
I'll still always be here for you
Together we can make it through
We've got time, yes we do
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
Yes I will
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
I'll wait with you till the tide turns
Till the tide turns...

"Time Turns Elastic"

"Time Turns Elastic"


In and out of focus, time turns elastic
In and out of focus, in and out of focus, time turns elastic
In and out of focus, in and out of focus, time turns

And when I stay too long, I went outside and stared
Arms outstretched and long, moved straight across the sky
(In and out of focus, in and out of focus)

If I could wrap my arms around this globe
Hands, touch the green and brown
I'd sink into the cool, cool ground
(In and out of focus, in and out of focus)

Seen all, seen all, seen all summer
Seen all, seen all, seen all spring

But I'm a submarine, submarine sinks below the ground
A submarine, I'm a submarine, submarine sinks below the ground

Now that the leaves turned to gold
The moments all glow, frozen and free from time
And out here on my own, I watch it ebb and flow

Here with the fire burning low in the honey mist that breathes
Crooked maple fingers trembling all around
I feel the winds that blow

Out here between the dark and light
The summers gone, and the reeds bow down
As the colors change all along the waterline, oh

And when it's time the landslide will free what flows inside
While all around the rocks collide, you finally see the lines
That points towards the light that never dies

Melody, shelter in the darkness take hold of me now
Memory, trapped in a corner, dark fingers are long
But all around, streaming down, rays of blue light calling out

These silver sounds are raining down on me
Here on the wheel the rhythm's turning all around
Up above the dark, it's sky is bleeding
I feel the world turning upside down

These are the reasons that we lay down on the ground
Drawn through the funnel, all the colors run together turning round
Wait for the waves to come and carry me away
Down on the ground the sounds of voices in the echoes seem to say

And as the carousel circles unceasingly
Watch while the ripples decay in this rolling time
In cascading, the wind set the wheels in motion
And it's turning in the mist around

Rolling and turning into the mist around me
Kissed by the water and held in your mother's arms
Green where you tumble and roll in these fields

The shapes of the bodies, a ship in the sun
While the blossoms all scream and it sleeps around me
The earth and these memories yields around me

In and out of focus, time turns elastic, time turns
In and out of focus, time turns elastic, time turns

Touches these woods and these waters all paved with gold
Gleaming in daylight their voices ring on
They're cold while they're pointing, lay down in the storm

And this life is bending and swelling around me
Rolling and turning into the mist around me
The winds all arising in the west around me
And the carousel turns into breath around me

In and out of focus, time turns elastic, time turns
In and out of focus, time turns elastic, time turns
In and out of focus, time turns elastic, time turns
In and out of focus, time turns elastic, time turns
