Hey, you better get out of town
You better get out of town
Hey you get outta town
You better get outta town
Walk the streets of misery
Take a walk on filthy streets
We never know where we're gonna be
in twenty minutes or it's free
Hey, you better get out of town
You better get out of town
Hey, you better get outta town
You better get outta town
Order me with a side of honey
I'll feed your soul
I'll be like silver and gold
Walk away just for a day
I'll need you
I could see you still
I want everyone to know...
Seven times seven is forty-nine
Seven times heaven is you and I
Seven times seven is forty-nine
Seven times heaven is you and I
I need a beer
I need some wine
I need some hard liquor in my time
I need a...
A little bit of...
A little bit of something
that's what I need, yeah
A little bit of lovin'
A little bit of lovin'
A little bit of lovin'
That's what I need, yeah
A little bit of lovin'
A little bit of lovin'
A little bit of lovin'
that's what I need, yeah
Seven times seven is forty-nine
Seven times heaven is you and... I
is you and... I
want everyone to know

Sun on My Face
03:25
|
|||
Living on a tumour of land
Every nation a marching band
I’m the best
She’s the best
We’re all the best at complaining and hating all the rest
Nicotine, caffeine, sugar we must
Nicotine, caffeine, sugar we trust
Nicotine, caffeine, sugar we must but unity is something we don’t use enough of
A minute (I’m in it) four years deep
Might not give it another sleep
Things repeat, things repeat, things repeat
Things repeat, I won’t retreat, I won’t be beat
Give up your rich and gory history
It was his story, not your victory
To win today you gotta do it through unity
To win today do it through unity
Nicotine, caffeine, sugar we must
Nicotine, caffeine, sugar we trust
Nicotine, caffeine, sugar we must but unity is something we don’t use enough of
Between our walls of mortar and hate
Let’s believe that we can change this fate
Between our walls of mortar and hate
Let’s believe that we can change this fate
Between our walls of mortar and hate
Let’s believe that we can change this fate and change this fate!
Sun on my face, mind out to sea

Mind Out to Sea
02:38
|
|||
Problems come storming in
Forget to breathe before I begin
Open my eyes to the morn’
And already the curtain’s torn
Here they come now, here they come
Here they come now, here they come
Not one by one but all at once
A thousand monsters about to pounce
(Ooh wee, wowie!)
Why don’t you take a trip to Hawaii
Or take a walk down the Sunset Strip in Maui
Put that sun back on your face
Mind out to sea
Mind out to sea

Coastal
02:26
|
|||
Listening to the waves
Of other people's lives
Blows out of crappy stereo
Sounds like a good ol' time
Observing the details
but from a social distance
They are different than mine
but it looks like happiness
Looking within me
I see bullet holes in a bag
Weak but willing not to bottom out
Listening to the waves
of my new beach life
But still sometimes life
is a coastal region with sand

Burden of Man
03:14
|
|||
I wish I were a light-hearted man, if only for the weekend
I need to let go of the burden, society and The Man
I'd rather be six feet deep than have my mind in the sand
Oh, I can't stand the burden of man
I need to be a working man no longer searching the fields
They say I should let go of the muse, be normal and refuse
I'd rather be six feet deep than let go of her hand
Oh, I can't stand the burden of man
Bury me now I can't survive in the world they've created
Society makes no one free, it's all mind pollution
But still my mind cannot breathe without the money in my hand
Oh, I can't stand the burden of man

Of Avenues
02:07
|
|||
The sounds of nature will have their turn
to be my guests comin' through my ears doors
The doors of perception lead to many rooms
and most of them have a splendid view
An outside perspective of avenues
Enter to consider the top view of you
How do I look to bigger things?
Probably a scrambling insect without wings!

Glad You Came
03:05
|
|||
I was gonna be alright with it
But I decided to hit it right
Hit it right
Right, hit it right this time
Right, hit it right on the head
I’ll be like a hammer this time
I won’t be such a fighter next time
But I’ll hit it right on the head
I’ll hit this nail till it’s all said
I’ll be yours if you want me
I’m glad you came
I’m glad you came
I’m glad you came around
You taught me how
How to be brave
I was chicken shit until you came around
You taught me how
How to deal with my
Deal with my mind and its thoughts
I’m glad you came
I’m glad you came
I’m glad you came around
I’m glad you came
It’s not a shame to be trying
Trying with me
I’m glad you didn’t go away

Neighbourhood Bars
03:23
|
|||
Walked in silence
Ears still ringing
Couldn't tell if I was flying or swimming
Looked above and counted the stars
Laughter poured from neighbourhood bars
The weather bit me and it's kind of funny
That I can't drink cause I ain't got no money
Looked ahead and saw a bar
Laughter sprinkled from the stars
The weather bites and it's not funny
Gotta keep walking I ain't got no money

Tick Talk
04:01
|
|||
She puts on her lipstick as she crosses the street
Where she's going, I don't know
Maybe to the mall maybe to a show
She'll be on time
She's looking fine
She's looking outta sight from my balcony
Where I'll go, oh I know, I'm staying here
For the time being
Time is a tick-tock away from now
And I don't wanna tick or talk
They cross the street diagonally
A group of hip-cats parading
Smoking, talking, singing, dancing
It looks like a good time
It looks like a great ol' time
It looks like a good ol' great ol' time from up here
I watch the ashes fall to the street
Where they'll go, I don't know
Maybe to the sewers down below
Maybe to the birds maybe to and fro
They're flying free, they're flying free
They're flying free just like me
I just wanna sit here and walk
In my adventurous mind
I can keep it moving without really moving
As long as the wind blows
As long as the wind is blowing
As long as the wind keeps blowing I can be still

Vagabonding
02:24
|
|||
I’m vagabonding
But I’m not alone
I’ll wander this globe
But not alone
There are hundreds of us
There are thousands of us
There are two of us
It will be a journey till we’re old
Till we, until we die
And then, I don’t know why,
But we’ll keep on going
