"It Came Upon A Midnight Clear"

"It Came Upon A Midnight Clear"



It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
With news of joy foretold,
"Peace on the earth, good will to men
From heaven's all gracious King."
The world in solemn stillness lay,
To hear the angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come,
Love's banner all unfurled;
And still their heavenly music floats
Over all the weary world.
Above its sad and lowly plains
Old echoes plaintive ring,
And ever over its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.

Yet with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long;
Beneath the Angel-strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
And man at war with man hears not
The love-song which they bring;
O! hush the noise, ye men of strife,
And hear the Angels sing.

O ye, beneath life's crushing load
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow;
Look now! for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing;
O rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing.

For lo! the days are hastening on,
By prophets seen of old,
When with the ever-circling years
Shall come the time foretold,
When the new heaven and earth shall own
The Prince of Peace their King,
And the whole world send back the song
Which now the angels sing.

"It's Always Something"

"It's Always Something"



I look around me and I see what I wanted and what I settled for
Yeah, I've got the heart of a Joan of Arc but the soul of a gigolo.
I've been good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Anytime I stopped to smell the roses they drew blood from me.
Do you know what I mean?
You never ever get away clean. But it's alright,
Yeah, touchdown, turn around, flag on the play.

It's always something, you know it is, it's always something,
It's always something, everyday, it's always something.

When I was a kid the teachers and the priests said,
"Why do you let him run around like that?"
My father said, "If the boy wants to play guitar, I say we let him."
Through the hard years he was my rock
when I just could not win.
So it goes y'know my father died
just before my leaky ship came in.

Do you know what I mean?
You never ever get away clean. Oh, but it's alright yeah.
Down one, homerun, your dog steals the ball.

I step up to the table in the middle of my life
and I take my cards and I check them twice.
I've got a killer hand and I'm ready to stake my claim,
the cops raid the game.

...it's always something

"Jessica"

"Jessica"



When you walked into the room looking like Jean Harlow
Oh Jessie, everyone looked at you, you're a lady
Though I know that you've been around the world
Maybe two or three times in your daddy's pocket
I'm gonna break that rich-bitch thing with you

Oh, Jessica, you're a lady
If it takes all night you're gonna be nice
Oh, Jessica, I think lady
That sold, hard front could melt like ice
Jessica, Jessica, Jessica, Jessica
Cold like a killer's eyes
Stay with me Jessica

You're a lady of the world, you've been to Paris and London
But Jessie, it doesn't mean a thing to you when you're lonely
Though you'd have to have a heart of stone
to put me on my knees
I know you ain't got it
I'm gonna get to you no matter what you do

Oh, Jessica, you're a lady
If it takes all night you're gonna be nice
Oh, Jessica, I think lady
That sold, hard front could melt like ice
Jessica, Jessica, Jessica, Jessica
Cold like a killer's eyes
Stay with me Jessica

Jessica, you're a lady
Jessica, you're a lady
Jessica, Jessica, oh
Jessica, you're a lady
Take me home in your big black car
Oh Jessica, I think lady
You're not as hard as they think you are

Jessica, Jessica, Jessica, Jessica
Fire up your cold heart
And stay with me, Jessica
Stay with me, Jessica
Stay with me, Jessica
Jessica, you're a lady
Jessica, you're a lady
Jessica, Jessica

"Jessie's Girl"

"Jessie's Girl"



Jessie is a friend,
Yeah I know he's been a good friend of mine
But lately something's changed
It ain't hard to define
Jessie's got himself a girl
And I want to make her mine
And she's watching him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it!
And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night

You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

I'll play along with this charade
That doesn't seem to be a reason to change
You know I feel so dirty when they start talking cute
I wanna tell her that I love but the point is probably moot
'Cause she's watching him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it!
And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night

You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

Like Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman...
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

And I'm lookin' in the mirror all the time
Wonderin' what she don't see in me
I've been funny; I've been cool with the lines
Ain't that the way love's supposed to be?
Tell me why can't I find a woman like that?

You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

Like Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I want, I want Jessie's girl

"Jesus Saves (White Trash Like You)"

"Jesus Saves (White Trash Like You)"


[Voice included in Jesus Saves is Jason Batchko]

You let me read your pretty poetry
And I fell for your trailer park majesty
And I, When I said I'd die for you (for you)
I didn't mean for you to write the eulogy
You betrayed yourself and me too

I know you lie when it's true
Jesus saves white trash, baby, like you
It's too late for you to undo
Jesus saves white trash, baby, like you

I should appreciate the irony
Cause I led us both to my Gethsemane
And I, I don't hate you I hate love (it's true)
I held you so close I couldn't see
While you had the grander view

I know sometimes it's true
(Jesus saves white trash, baby like you)
We make what we can't undo
(Jesus saves white trash, baby like you)

[Solo]

I know you lie when it's true
Jesus saves white trash, baby like you
It's too late for you to undo
Jesus saves white trash, baby like you

I know sometimes it's true
(Jesus saves white trash, baby like you)
We make what we can't undo
(Jesus saves white trash, baby like you)

"Joshua"



Joshua, life is looking at you
Come as you are, it’s a room with a view
"Time to stand up" is not an innuendo
Let the world in open up your window
Joshua, I know your spirit is true
Your destiny is calling It’s no time to be shy

You can fly do or die let me hear your battle cry
Stand your ground, You can make this old earth shake
Touch the sky, testify, open up your tiger’s eye
You can turn this thing around
Make no mistake, this is your battleground

Joshua, I was there from day one
I know what you are, You’re no prodigal son
You've never been one for the false bravado
Or left me shunned incommunicado
Joshua, you’re the power of one
I know from where you stand it seems impossible to shine

You can fly, do or die let me hear your battle cry
Dragonfly your wings can make the ocean quake
Touch the sky, dream of fire looking through your tiger’s eye
You can turn this thing around
Make no mistake, this is your battleground

And you're not standing on your own
Joshua, you were born for this chance
Joshua, face the music and dance

You can fly, do or die let me hear your battle cry
Stand your ground, you can make this old earth shake

Testify, live or die, open up your tiger’s eye
You can turn this thing around
Make no mistake, this is your battleground

"Just One Kiss"



You look a little lonely, babe, a little blue
You know you're not the only one, I'm lonely too
I been surviving just day by day
I had some dreams but they all blew away

And then I saw your face across a crowded room
My heart missed a beat, oh, did you feel it too
To trust someone you just gotta be bold
The wall that you're building is crumbling, oh

Why don't we break it down
Why don't we break it down, pretty baby
It's gonna, it's gonna take
Take just one kiss, just one kiss
It's gonna, it's gonna take
Take just one kiss
To break it down

You look a little lonely, babe, a little blue
I said you're not the only one, I'm lonely too
I can't deny my heart anymore
You give me a feeling that I can't ignore

You try to play it safe, but you're not really shy
You try to look away, but I caught your eye
You can't hide, it's all over your face
The barrier between us is losing its place

Why don't we break it down
Why don't we break it down, pretty baby
It's gonna, it's gonna take
Take just one kiss, just one kiss
It's gonna, it's gonna take,
Take just one kiss, yeah just one kiss,
It's gonna, it's gonna take
Take just one kiss
To break it down

Why don't we break it down
Why don't we break it down, pretty baby
It's gonna, it's gonna take
Take just one kiss, just one kiss
It's gonna, it's gonna take,
Take just one kiss,
To break it, break it down

It's gonna, it's gonna take
Take just one kiss, yeah just one kiss,
