1. Slowly (oh so slowly) Potential, you're a loaded line The veil between the world and the faceless bride There's nothing there but a bunch of white Oh, potential, you're a loaded line Tomorrow, I'm going to wait for you Laying right here, floating in this swimming pool There's a lot of things I got left to do Oh, tomorrow, I'm going to wait for you The days keep slipping down into the cracks It takes a while to realize where you're at Slowly (so slowly), slowly (so slowly), slowly, it's slowly ending Dementia, you better treat me good The human race isn't, it's like a childhood I never learned what I understood Oh, dementia, you better treat me good Sometimes, I need a place to go Classical music plays from my radio I sit real still, let me shadow grow Yeah, sometimes, I need a place to go My mind keeps slipping back into the past I hope someday that I can get it back Slowly (so slowly), slowly (so slowly), slowly, it's slowly ending Soon that train is going to pull in I hear it whistle I try to wave I grew a face Can't tell who I am Slowly (so slowly), slowly (so slowly), slowly, it's slowly ending ---------------------------------------------- 2.

Air Mattress ---------------------------------------------- 5. Cabbage Town ---------------------------------------------- 6.Ten Women Ten women (ten women) Ten women Between you and me Ten women (ten women) Ten women The nightmare and the fantasy Ten women The thrill and the shame Ten women I miss you the same While you're kissing the ring Of some good timing king Ten women A fool I have made Two faces (two faces) Two faces Two faces you have Two faces (two faces) Two faces Keep one in your bag Two faces From which you can choose Two faces And neither are you Well I'm biding my time Like a cellar of wine With two faces You'll never be true One witness (one witness) One witness Is all that I need One witness (one witness) One witness Just someone to see One witness To all that's been done One witness Whose eyes will not run Just someone to shout In this big, empty house One witness To mourn for our love Ten women (ten women) Ten women Between you and me Ten women (ten women) Ten women The glory and the tragedy Ten women To trust and betray Ten women I want you the same It will be like it's been If you come home again With ten women Who have all gone away ---------------------------------------------- 7. Difference is Time ---------------------------------------------- 8.Nikorette I'm just trying to stay a human being Sitting in the sun eating ice cream Texting my friend about a bad, bad dream Just trying to find someone who knows me But I don't got time for your cuckoo clock And I don't want to go to your Mason Lodge There's nothing more sad than a lynching mob Full of rational men who believe in God But nothing makes sense when the wave rolls through Nothing makes sense when the wave comes through Well, if there's something in me, well, I know it's in you If there's something in me, well, I bet it's in you My neighbor dreams big because his house is small Says all he needs now is some capital It's a pirate world, it's a free-for-all They take your bright ideas and they make them dull But everyone I see I think I've known before From the opera house to the grocery store My love for them I cannot ignore Like a human voice in a quiet morgue But I don't want to wear no dead man's suit I don't want to wear no dead man's suit I don't want to wait until the moon gets blue I don't want to wait until the moon turns blue It's all just a fix Just one little hit You'll hold it in Sitting on a plane chewing nicorette Paradise lost, haven't found it yet Will you talk me down if I get upset? Be the cool washcloth to my fevered head Because I don't want to dream if it won't come true I don't want to dream if it don't come true If there's something in me, well, I guess it's in you If there's somewhere in me, then I know it's in you It's all just a fix Just one little hit You're holding in You'll hold it in You're holding in You'll hold it in And I don't want to dream if it won't come true I don't want to dream if it don't come true If there's something in me, well, I guess it's in you If there's somewhere in me, then I know it's in you If it happens to me, it's going to happen to you Whatever happens to me, it's going to happen to you ---------------------------------------------- 9.White Shoes ---------------------------------------------- 10.Bloodline ---------------------------------------------- 11.Spoiled Can't break a rule that ain't been made I started chasing ponytails and mushroom clouds and black fields I don't want to feel this entertained Sitting on a crowded coach, staring at the stereo Watching all the hippies through the haze From gentle soul to sad and stoned No one wants to be alone But you know you can't always get your way Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you still feel down Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you're still let down Yeah, farmer, he's a sentient being Sipping on his canteen Passes it to me, I can't say thanks ??? She steers clear of me Remembers all those bad scenes If she'd just sit still, I could explain And every time I fucked her mind It's because I thought I was in love And I woke up with that same thought today Well, so it goes, the ebb and flow Happiness was (never us?) If it's all free, why would you ever pay? Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you're still let down Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you still feel down Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you still feel down Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you're still let down Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you still feel down Tell me what you're going to do now You get everything you wanted and you're still let down ---------------------------------------------- 12.Worldwide ---------------------------------------------- 13.Roosevelt Room Hey there son of Adam, Hey there daughter of Eve, Help me sing this tear gas riot song, To some fresh faced police. They won't even know what hit ‘em, When they lift their roman shades When the riot song comes pouring in on a brand new day. 　　 Now, you who dam the river, You could change a mountain's name, First we marched to rally back Now we're taking down Washington state. In death there’s a consolation You know only hate and rage, You paid a dowry for your child's rights, Now she's living like a slave. 　　 A prayer came down the wire, And it was all in the enemy’s code You couldn't figure out what mercy meant, Until you did like you were told. When they finally sent the doctors, Once the fireball went out, There was nothing left but the cockroaches, In a movie with no sound. 　　 What good, what good are you? With your cynical flag and your Roosevelt room, What good, what good are you? With your Cherokee trail and your unattended tomb. 　　 Yeah, go ask Hunter Thompson, Yeah, go ask Hemmingway's ghost, It all catches up with you Once you get just a little too old. Take a hard look in the mirror, It's a thing that you did not see, The shadow's long, But the day is young, It just wasn't meant to be. 　　 There's no blankets for the winter, There's no oil in the lamp, And I'd like to write my congressman, But I can't afford the stamp. You want me to pay my taxes So you can propagate your lie, While there's barefoot dudes down in New Orleans, Looking like they're gonna die. 　　 Yeah, you who quote the legends, You who poisoned all of my dreams, You pinned all of the medals on All those boys from Omaha Beach, Hope they haven't got too lazy, I know you like your apple pie, But the working poor you've been pissing on Are doing double shifts tonight. 　　 What good, what good are you? With your cynical flag and your Roosevelt room. What good, what good are you? With your Cherokee trail and your unattended tomb. ---------------------------------------------- 14.Eagle on a Pole Saw an eagle on a pole I think it was an eagle Watched its shadow fly across the cement I woke up in the snow All the trees were crowds of people No coat, no shoes, no idea where they went I followed the fence line thin Back where the yard begins My woman, she stood crying like a man Said, "Where have you been Where have you been?" I thought you said that all of that was done El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone Thought the kettle was a train Thought that Monday was a door frame I tried so hard to finally settle down Heard the fire pop and snap Like a tack piano rag I never could get used to happy sounds But I hope the world's exposed A cruel and elaborate hoax That convinces me to walk without a cane But what can you do What can you do I always heard that what is done is done El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone The past don't ever quit There's boxes in the attic Baby shoes and taxidermy dreams While the ashes of the dead, like a dandelion head Explode and then are scattered by the breeze And it's such a long way back to all the fun I had When nothing ever seemed to bother me But what can you do Child, what can you do Sleep beneath the stars, and toil in the sun El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone El cielo es azul Just don't go telling everyone ---------------------------------------------- 15.I got The Reason #2 You know a lot can happen after everybody falls asleep Ask the forest fire, ask the cop walking on the beat And do right by them, work a little in your dreams Don't let time rob you, hold onto your memories In the glass houses, in the pages of the Rolling Stone I get a sick feeling, like I'm rocking in a little boat Hear the big church bell, it's ringing like a mobile phone Such a long Sunday drive, and I'm taking it all alone I want to belong to a reason And cut a new key to the kingdom And if anybody asks me, say I want to belong If anybody asks me, say that it won't take long If anybody asks me, say I'm going to get this done If anybody asks me, say I got a reason In the last hard drive in the satellites that kick and spin You'll find that old footage so everything can live again Pretty pink roses, the ostrich and the elephant It's the next Noah's ark, everything's got to fit In the creased pages of a letter I've been trying to send To a young widow who is desperate for some kind of friend You'll find a long list of eligible, handsome men Who want to lay with her, upon the table of the elements They're going to hold strong to a reason And cut a new key to the kingdom And if anybody asks them, say they're going to belong And if anybody asks them, say that it won't take long now And if anybody asks them, say they're going to get this done And if anybody asks them, say they've got a reason ---------------------------------------------- 16.Snake Hill ----------------------------------------------
