True value, true thank you
For helping me dig this grave
Weaned on it, raised for it
Parents i scrimped and saved
Rough times for the rest
But lackey, we've got it made
Bed down in your movie, your life
Let the critics rave

I'm here to quell your fears <

Hard and believe it's the end of the world
Well I hope you have something to say.
I can pretend that I love you again.
Anyway that still works now and then

Since I'm going away, I've got nothing to loose
Write me postcards like tourists that say...

I was the one

Jens is a friend, he's see better days
With millionaire kids riding V.C. parades
Every boom has a bust and now its all changed
Did you think it would last? Do you want it again?

As the party got tired the skyscrapers slow
When the money runs out funs the first thing to

Just like I learned those lessons in childhood
Same way I know I'm untouched and unharmed
Sleep like a looser and think like an arson
Don't hate my father the phone rings its "hi son"

Tonka trucks in the back yard are rusted forgotten
The apple trees fruit has all fall

Took a trip to the great lakes November 1819
Just myself and some moons boots no one to accompany me
When I got to the beach the sand had been frozen to stone
And a sign warned that lamprey had taken the lake for their home

Still a quarter mile out from the beach where i sa

Here is your ticket the ticket man said
Now step aside son the shows over there
You turn apprehensive alone in a crowd
The smiles could be snakes but you know better now...

It's a merry go round, finally I'm in that place
Where the horse are smiling people
I'm sur

Pink floyd and alison remind me its been so long.
Since fucking meant anything, I caution you, you could drown.
So reckless with my heart i fear I've worn it out.
Lampreys and gigolos, I'll sleep on the sofa now.

But I won't quietly leave this place.
And the sun will n

So you want to be a pop star?
you can start by lowering the bar
Get some platinum white teeth, an industry thief,
you might go far

So you wanna be a pop star?
Were you under-loved? attention starved?
Mommy out at the club? Daddy drunk at the pub?
All of the a

I don't know what to do with these girls anymore
They have grown into women, and I'm still a boy
tumble down, to the ground, dust myself off in real gold.
And I read in a study that kids must grow old
That they all leave the nursery, get bought and get sold.
tumble down,

I've got a secret story
and nobody else can tell it
monsters may leap out roaring
Like pop up books when you're little

I've got a secret story
And nobody else can tell it
everyone likes a story
With angels and alcoholics

Give me summertime when I'm kin

I just have the pieces but I know the whole not to touch
Bandits make off with your heart if you use it too much

And made me so far away
So far away

I never knew anyone I could trust
So I'll never know anyone that I can touch
And I'll never love you cause I'll l

could be the one that you let whisper in your ear
I could be your trusted bread for butter
Maybe if this evening lasts we'll swim into the sun
Or maybe not once more the same along

Keep in mind there's always someone else
Wanna hedge your bets? Curl up and stay home. <

Oooh, what you'll be little boy
Is doctors lawyers engineers
You see little boy?

Oooh, and you grew little boy
And learned to shed those bright ideas
You see little boy?

Now, there's a building downtown
With coffee breaks and donuts

That they offer as bribes

Fairly tales. A nursery rhythm
Balance out the sadness of my life
Make amends for my young years
Make amends, amends to balance time
say the worst, and not the best
years have gone by when I reminisce
see a girl, see how we kiss?
she will always be the one I lo

Walk away from this
I don't want to walk away from this
Baby's at my side asleep its Sunday morning
windows creeping almost golden

Still there's time to think
The way that spring is always there to sing
A song to keep your mind off disappointments
Remind you
