Lucky Charm 03:02
lyrics
Everyone Gather around Hey all you people That work on the ground Look I’m a nice guy Well I’m not Kidding around There’s nothing like it So very proud Oh my lucky charm Hung upside down Oh my lucky charms Empty your bowels Look at all I’ve done No one’s done more For you than me As a matter of fact Come look and see Look I’m a nice guy It breaks my heart Lose sleep at night Folks gonna tell you The future is bright You should be grateful For what you get Is there any question I will forget Just look at what I’ve done My lucky charm Hung upside down My lucky charm Empty your bowels Look I’m a nice guy

A Lonely Touch 03:47
lyrics
buy track
Time ran out Pleasure of late Treat yourself to a cry Stay for a while Forgive the sad impression Just kidding around The half empty gesture Sharp look for a clown No thank you please That would be all Believe that will do Toughest of breaks From me to you It’s a lonely touch Lonely touch A lonely touch to feel Flowers cut A kiss to the skin Wheels turn for words Graze past your life Let us keep the other close Whisper now soft voice A solitary knot Hanging onto some choice Unpleasantries When does the axe fall Tell me what is new I can’t begin What can you do It’s a lonely touch Lonely touch A lonely touch to feel Staring down a barrel of laughs There’s a gentle bullet It’s a lonely touch Lonely touch A lonely touch to feel It’s a lonely touch Lonely touch A lonely touch to feel I keep losing it The lonely touch Gotta stay true to this Lonely touch What can I do What can I do I had enough All too much Now I’m feeling it The lonely touch Knees are getting weak Feet are getting cold Feeling it A lonely touch Got to make peace with it The lonely touch I can make peace with it Lonely touch Giving it the final touch Very nice touch

Garbage Crisis on Swastika Trail 04:30
lyrics
Take pride in The neighbourhood Those people are new It’s our home Not a zoo They block our view What’s that in their lawn Don’t they recycle Garbage crisis on Swastika Trail On Swastika Trail Our youngsters Are well behaved They do what they’re told But across from us They oughta scold That little toad Keep your child on a leash Get a stay close strap Toddler crisis on Swastika Trail On Swastika Trail

Free Range Parents 01:47
lyrics
Free range parents Let me outside It’s a sunny day Here come strangers They just pulled up Into the driveway I do I do what I want I said I’m no chicken There is yelling Your brains on drugs That leaves me confused Hit my head but I like soda I can be excused Yes I am grown up Are you amazed I talk to grownups That’s how I’m raised Free range parents What do they know Tell me Jesus saves Life on breadcrumbs Wish me good luck Promise to behave I do I do what I want I said I’m no chicken Yes I am grown up The lord be praised I talk to grownups That’s how I’m raised

Magical Thinking 03:25
lyrics
Vanishing beyond the pale Whatever did you find But the plain truth Escape all doubt Perfectly clear Fantastic lie It could’ve been magic That much I know Yes we had parlour tricks You give me the sign I play the fool Like a boy scout I volunteer To say suffice It could’ve been magic That much I know Oh save the lock of hair Cast your spell far and wide Circle back through A ring of hell Who’s got an ear For nursery rhymes It could’ve been magic That much I know It could’ve been magic That’s what I know

Time of Day 02:44
lyrics
Come again Sage advice Sugar in my bowl The morning after Find it gone I sing off key The best I can Child’s play Cool guy So I have been told Run to the castle Break the mold It’s the time of day when you get a life Bad peach to the plum You wanna squeeze that how Yes I’m right behind you Catching up behind you Once again Big surprise Sloth is pigeon toed The Stratocaster Comedy gold I wrote the book On old white man Pick a time of day when you get the life Any kind of way for who to decide If you pull my chain then you get the prize When did I ever say look into these eyes

Feast for Eyes 03:04
lyrics
Milk and honey The daily bread Open wide people Keep the swine fed Howl at the moon The future knocks You crack a smile With precious rocks Hand of fate Let me go A feast for eyes Well I could be wrong Expect the worst So much the better Always at first Across the land Bountiful crooks Take what you can lift Come have a look Yesterday Tomorrow Now feast your eyes A silver spoon Grandfather clock Been a good long while For baby talk We’re hazing Sunny Got to his head Come on now be cool Hear what I said For God’s sake Heaven knows The feast for eyes Who took the command Threw college books Off a sinking ship As the world shook Remember our song Who got the thirst Light as a feather Then my heart burst Child awake Afterglow Yeah feast your eyes
8.
The Need Met 04:21
lyrics
Kiss a bumper on the highway Chew the gum behind my ear Coors Light that’s a nice taste A toast and nothing more I want a toast and nothing more Now I’m coming back Like I never left In a plume of ash Your lips stuck on my face What do I do To leave it behind I’m starting new Again To whomsoever That it may concern We could strike a match You can watch it burn I want the need met Only the finest Living the dream yeah Everyone silent Those things that I done before I do them if I can Tell me who shut the door I got to ruin it so much better I got to ruin it that much better Right that’s my cue To leave it behind Starting new Again I pull a few strings Got my rolodex I make a few calls See what happens next I got the need met No great provider Listen to me yeah Everyone silent

Spare the Emotion 02:37
lyrics
Spare the emotion I got spare change Paint the town eggshell white Dig your own grave Tear the pages out of a new chapter Come to the end just like it began My palm of clay Hit everyone Keep your golden rule Quite a display Do carry on Training wheels on a bike Spare the emotion Why spare a name Throw the shade onto light Like it’s a game All I can hear is the sound of laughter What is this do you call it a man Try as you may To play along Blow hard on kazoo Colour TV A marathon To break off piece of mind Fare thee well Marriage of two Coils on a box spring I can leave it all behind Spare the emotion Spare the emotion

Wish Upon the Sky 03:42
lyrics
Tumbleweeds crickets Cool breeze in the air Heart strings on the harp Got my thoughts and prayers Hell is a scream to nobody Wish upon the sky We can I promise you The stars they will align It’s not our first act Up on the Marquee Wake up and smell the corpse flower Wish upon the sky Fishes that stay in school Swimming just to get by Almost just like home Breathe in the exhaust And the walls are closing in now Wish upon the sky We can I swear it’s true The words for living die The very best thing to do Tell you what that’s about
