TAKE ME OUT - TURPENTINE - THREE EARS - STRANGE - BAR SONG
TAKE ME OUT
Spinning like a wheel up in the sky
The state I am in is not my state of mind
A present for this, your holiday
Take me out, you know that I want to go
Take me out, I'll wait in my front yard
A blanket eclipse
The moon in the East freezes like your car on the road,
Your eyes in the breeze
I know I will see you again
In six months, my friend
I'll be all right waiting around until next time
I'm fine.
Break us out from what they want us to be
Free is the sound of everything we need
Your brother and you: I know you are close
You both like The Who
You both like The Kinks
And so I will wait until the next time
I am content thinking of you
I'm fine.
Break us out from what they want us to be
Free fall on down, tumble in turning leaves
You know I want to go
I'll wait by your front door
TURPENTINE
And when you told me that I needed you
I thought that you were making a joke
I thought I'd fall down on the floor laughing
I thought that was script we wrote
Feelings change with the weather
Feelings are changing all the time
You were a wind chime in a graveyard
I was an eskimo in heat
I met you coming across the river
You made the shallow end look deep
Feelings change with the weather
My feelings are changing all the time
You knew me well, I knew you better
You left me sipping turpentine
Got caught in your life
You're going nowhere
When it comes right down: You wear me out
Got caught up in something
Maybe the weather
Let me know and I will come around
Feelings change with the weather
My feelings are changing all the time
You knew me well, I knew you better
You left me sipping turpentine
Got caught in your life
You're going nowhere
When it comes right down: You wear me out
Got caught up in something
Maybe the weather
Let me know and I will come around
THREE EARS
Harry's on a one-night stand
Old enough to hold his hand
Big tits and not enough big tears
I'm never rough
If you go down you see the lagoon inside of me
Hot cheeks and web design
Warm enough to keep them high
You don't understand (no I don't)
I got a hot switch - It's in my hand (you're always switching your mind)
You don't recognize (they never do)
I got three ears and one big eye
I've had my eye on that simple breeze
Blowing through the wind-swept trees
It's like a hand that steals the peace from my eyes
And throws me back in disguise
You don't understand (they never do)
I got a hot switch - It's in my hand (you flicked that switch in my brain)
You don't recognize (they seldom do)
I got three ears and one big eye
I've had my eye on that simple breeze
Blowing through the wind-swept trees
It's like a hand that steals the peace from my eyes
And throws me back in disguise
Harry's on a one-night bus
Warm enough to hold him up
Big life and running fine
Big tears
They're never mine
You don't understand (I sure don't)
I got a hot switch - It's in my hand (Oh, you're always changing your mind)
YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE (I never do)
I got three ears and one big eye

BAR SONG
Love,
I'll take you home tonight
I'll make sure you're alright
Love,
I'll buy you anything
I'll fill your drink for free
There will come a day
Good looks will fade away
Leave you with the wind
Tatooed across your skin
Your mind will leave you dancing
To music that never appeared
Your heart will keep on prancing
Through puddles of wine and beer
Tonight,
I'll lay you down to bed
I'll kiss your aching head
