Still Got a Smile Well I listen to the rhythm and I feel no pain, Like a shower for an hour pouring down like rain, all over me, Yeah you see it, try to steal it and you feel it too, And you spike it, cause you like it, what are you going to do, can you follow me? Break down the walls they built around us, Rockin’ the streets no one ever found us, Don’t turn your back on me my friend, I think we can make it. Things get strange and they change and you’re wondering why, Pretty people, pretty steeple and you want to cry, are you feeling down? Say hooray, drift away, sing a song every day, You believin’ makes it even and you get your way, it goes around. Chorus See the light, way too bright and it’s hurting your eyes, Stay up late, it feels great and you wonder why, you can’t slow down, So you bet it and regret it, cause I’m paying your bills, Know you’re hoping and you’re coping and you’re getting your thrills, new kid in town. Chorus

Joint Review 03:48
The Joint Review I guess you have to pay to play, Words are free you’d have to say, It feels so real to be so poor, Flash a card walk through the door, Flash a card walk through your door. There used to be a path we could go down, But there’s no profit in a smile, Just cause you’ve got a king don’t mean that there’s a crown, I’d rather drown. Remember when you were young? You used to have so much fun, In the light you can’t escape, Flash a card walk through the door, Flash a card walk through your door. Chorus

Jennifer 03:57
Jennifer I haven’t felt this way in a long time, My mouth gets dry and I don’t know why, Should I pick up the phone or maybe leave you alone? I feel I’m going to scream out, I want you! Jennifer I get scared that I want you, Is your heart with mine? Your kiss as sweet as wine, You’re beautiful to me, so I’ll sing you this song, Someday I’ll tell you, together we belong. Jennifer

Steeplechase 05:12
Steeplechase Have we done enough? It can’t always be about us, Is there no point to this? Spinning around the Sun, We’ll be wondering what we’ve done, Wondering where we’ve gone, No one to blame anyone, The mirror reflects the gun, I’m holding to your head, The bullets don’t blame anyone, They just bleed heads. I’m tired of staring at you, I’m tired of staring at me, You’re burning my eyes, You’re burning my eyes, I’m tired of staring at them, They’re staring at me, They’re burning my eyes, We’re burning our eyes, Just leave it to yourself, You don’t need anyone inside your head, Just leave it to yourself, You don’t need anyone.

Thick Traffic People always think they’re cool? Making up our golden rule, Why do they think that they’re so special? How come nobody remembers? How long it takes until December, I don’t want to leave and fade away. I feel a rhythm that’s too tame, Scared of neon, dance is lame, Nobody’s real they’re all just faking, Dig on our beat, we want you shaking! It was back in ‘91 Had a sound was so much fun, Want that wheel to keep on turning, I guess we’ll have to wait and see, Maybe you, but no not me, I want to feel what you’re believing. Chorus
7.
Spring Forward I always thought that I, Could tell you that I, Love you, Strings will attach my chords until I die, Way back then I stopped and you asked why, I’ll bend over backwards then you’ll say two words. I get sick cause I’m far from home, Buy rings to fill the hole in my heart, Distance makes it hard to fill the gap, I’m closer than a point on your map. Claim a victory, makes us losers all, Entwined in a battle, waged before we fall, Comfort comes from a Southern Belle who stays, I’ll ring out in silver, now my lining’s smudged. Chorus
8.
Fall Backwards Leaves are turning brown, Colours are the only sound that we hear, Object to foreign lands, Go wash your dirty hands in the mud, Through the field and over the hill, you’d lie there still, I’ll tell a tale of love, When push comes to shove, you’re my only friend, I don’t want to know, What I would do without you, I don’t want to know, What I would do without you, I work hard for the man, Trouble helps me understand in my life, Dark roads they need light, Plant a bulb and you’ll gain site, you can see, In the know and ‘round the bend, You’ll fuck the trend, Winter’s coming soon, I’ll see you in June, That’s when I’ll feel warm. Chorus
