Pissing Off The Old Man

Hanging in the backyard with you,
Eyes are so two-toned, one’s blue
Pissing off the old man, that’s true
You can’t tell me anything,
I’ll do what I wanna do,
You can’t tell me anything,
I won’t give him solitude,
Trying to be friendly with you,
But you need your space girl, that’s true,
I’ll ankle bite your brother, that fool,
You can’t tell me anything,
I’ll do what I wanna do,
You can’t tell me anything,
I won’t give him solitude

C’mon dude, it’s gonna start raining
If we stay out here, I’m gonna get sick again
For reasons quite unknown, you’re moving awfully slow
C’mon dude, it’s gonna start raining
If we stay out here, I’m gonna get sick again
For reasons quite unknown to you, I can’t go to work with the flu
C’mon dude

A few stray dogs in Arizona,
It’s been so nice to get to know ya,
We’ll cancel our flights,
We’ll steal the car,
But Arizona to Toronto is so damn far,
I’ve got a buddy in California,
He could come out for ya,
Oh, I’ll see you around,
I’ve got your picture on my wall,
And I remember it all,
The snacks we ate together,
Before we hit that weather,
I’ve got a buddy in California,
He could come out for ya,
It’s pretty close, it’s not that far,
But goddamn Dylan,
Just wrecked his car,
Oh, I’ll see you around

Best Boy

I stumbled on something,
It tastes like it should,
I stumbled on something,
In my neighborhood,
I’m trying to be something,
I’m trying to be good,
I’m trying to be something,
The best boy in the neighborhood

Golden And Full Of Grace

Golden and full of grace,
Coming up here from the damnedest place,
She sold you in her disgrace,
Deserted til they saw your face,
I met you when you were young,
You shine so bright like the rising sun,
You shine so bright like the rising sun,
With eyes so wise that I’m in awe,
You shine so bright like the rising sun,
You’re golden and full of grace

Furnace Falls

Furnace Falls or something like that,
We took a wrong turn and went off track,
Now I don’t know what’s going on,
We said stop but dad said go,
Why he doesn’t listen well, no-one knows,
Now I’m not sure I’m feeling well,
You spat up so I spat up,
Now mama’s gotta get her clean-up stuff,
You spat up so I spat up,
Now I’m not sure I’m feeling well,

Friends

Where did my friends go?
I simply don’t know,
And it’s so hard to explain,
But I came here on a plane,
With my friend Joe,
So where did Joe go?
Or have you seen Moe?
Well, I don’t like him as much,
But if you put me in touch,
Then I will go,
I don’t like this place,
It feels so far away,
I don’t like this place,
I wanna run away,
I’ve got so much more to say

Vocho

They found me sitting,
I was a greeter for the wagon,
But now I’m living,
The Beatle more loved than Lennon,
I just wanna do more,
I’ve got a voice you can’t ignore,
I just wanna do more,
I’ve got a voice you can’t ignore,
They fixed my breathing,
So you can watch me while I’m dreaming,
But now I’m leaving,
I won’t forget the friends I’m meeting,
I just wanna do more,
I’ve got a voice you can’t ignore,
I just wanna do more,
I’ve got a voice you can’t ignore,

Look Me In The Eyes
01:06

|
Look me in the eyes,
And tell me your awake,
I’ve been up since 5,
I simply cannot wait,
No, I simply cannot wait,
I’ve been in disguise,
I was feeling almost safe,
A noise at 3 or 4:05’s,
Got me in a panicked state,
Now I’m in a panicked state,
If I sneak in between you,
I guess I can wait,
If I sneak in between you,
You can help me greet the day.

We Could Soon
02:02
|

|
I’m not saddened being at home,
I’m with mom, I’m never alone
But I miss driving with you,
And I wish that we could soon,
We could soon,
And I’ve got a bunch of friends,
That I want to see again,
And I miss my Uncle Gus,
If we can, we simply must,
We simply must
