The King of Everything

One of these days my phone will ring
They’ll make me the king of everything
One of these days when I don’t feel so down
One of these days I’ll lose my mind
I worry about it some of the time
One of these days I know you’ll be around
Ooohh
One of these days they’ll knock on my door
With everything I want and more
One of these days when I don’t feel so blue
One of these days it all will end
It’s nothing I’d like to go through again
One of these days I hope I get a clue
Ooohh
One of these days my phone will ring
One of these days my phone will ring
One of these days my phone will ring

Late bloomer when I learned to ride my bike
Keep fallin til I finally get things right
Late bloomer never learned how to decide
Late bloomer when I learned to tie my shoes
Ain’t nobody gonna tell me what to do
Late bloomer feelin lonely and confused
I would have given up for you
I only wish that I had known
Ahhh impatient and always waiting
I only wish that I had known

Ain't Nothing

I came from the north with a note in my hand
Two shoes and a bag and a quiet man
In love with his home, but there’s nothing there
On his way to a new anywhere
And there ain’t nothing I can conceive
That even comes close to bein so mean
But that ain’t nothing that I can explain
That girl she went straight for the jugular vein
On down the road, on down the street
With all of the bugles calling retreat
I don’t think I’m ready to give up today
But I think that I might do it anyway
And there ain’t nothing this heart can contain
Despite the best efforts of a noble brain
And there ain’t nothing noone can say
That can’t be solved just by changing your name
I think of the time I was in 2nd grade
I fell through the ice the pond had made
I’m not sure quite why that comes to mind now
Anyhow
Now I know there ain’t nothing that’s worth waiting for
And I swear to god I won’t wait anymore
And there ain’t nothing I can do to atone
But goddamn you know I hate feeling alone
I came from the north with a note in my hand
Two shoes and a bag and an expired man

Some Enchanted Evening
03:37
|
|||
|
I grew up disaffected in a town that never wakes
Where everyone’s a preacher’s son and heavy on the brakes
All my friends were fooled into the usual mistakes
And I left to find the fortune that deluded youth creates
Uh huh, keep out of trouble
Uh huh, keep to yourself
Uh huh, keep out of trouble
Uh huh, keep to yourself
All the lovesick writers bury dreams in manuscripts
Their objects of affection, this for that and that for this
I couldn’t bare my soul, I couldn’t deal in artifice
So I chose the road of apathy and forged a farewell kiss
Chorus
Some enchanted evening this all turned out to be
Spinning round in circles with renewed velocity
If there’s a God somewhere up there I hope that he can see
I take that back, I hope he’s blind, cause then it’s up to me
Is there anyplace left for quiet desperation?
Chorus

The king he walked through town today
The earth was still, the sky was grey
Down Southern Boulevard
And when he spoke nobody heard
I saw the king walk through town today
Nobody knew quite what to say
I hurried back to tell my friends
Out to where the pavement ends
Holding on, holding on, holding on, holding on
Now I’m back behind this cracked glass pane
And everywhere I look it’s rain
I know I don’t know much right now
I’m frightened anyhow
Holding on, holding on, holding on, holding on
I saw the king in town today
He looked at me, I saw him wave
I didn’t see dirt on his hands
I hope he understands
Holding on, holding on, holding on, holding on

Burning Down the House
04:45

They’re burning down the house tonight
You oughtta come see with your own two eyes
Noone in town but you and me
Would care enough to come and see
They’re burning down the house tonight
You ought to come and see the light
Nobody here but you and me
Is living with the memory
And you’re gonna feel it
Ninety years of grey and brown
Seeping into the poison ground
Heat and light the most it gave
There’s nothing there that I would save
Broken stairs and shotgun racks
Crumbling walls and stray cats
I know I never saw things right
A crooked home bears crooked life
And you’re gonna feel it
One more dies a violent death
With choking ash that steals your breath
Although the hurt may never heal
There’s nothing left that it can steal
And you’re gonna feel it
They’re burning down the house tonight

The World Before
02:40
|
|||
|
I was young, I was cautious, I was a kid
Didn’t want to regret the things I did
All that time I never knew
I’d regret the things I didn’t do
Things are the same
I think I remember the world before
Before I knew what it had in store
I’ve got analog under my skin
Should I express my feelings in
Digital?
I could tell you everything, it wouldn’t change
I could say I’m old for my age
But underneath I’m still afraid
Oh the mess that I have made
I haven’t changed
