Re-entry Blues
( sung by dave )

I'm stealing your hearse
a terrible thirst
the love of a fast ride

Harder to tell
I'm staring at hell
or is that the sunrise

Las Vegas at dawn
getting it on
missed you so fine

Staring the pearls
maybe the curls
girl that she looks like

Say, your sun tan fades away
check my suitcase
back to L.A.

the king is dead
and I'm moving on
yeah it exploded

One last chance re-entry
abandoned

Gravity please,
come pull me under
I think I hear the sound
rolling thunder

yeah, it exploded
One last chance re-entry
abandoned

check out this place
ladies have horns
and the paste on their trays
you can shoot up your arms
truth has become
martinis and toast
and look at me now
I'm the most

still ????
a beautiful force
One last chance re-entry

Say, man at the ess
and I'm surrounded by guests
One last chance re-entry

To go as far as I can
Chasing after the things
One last chance re-entry
that I'm

Diving for pearls
and the smell of  girls
and my divine appetite

Gravity please
come and pull me under
I think I hear the sound
rolling thunder

The king is dead
and I'm moving on
yeah it exploded
One last chance re-entry
abandoned

Fireflies
( sung by scott )

Bumpercars a lazy afternoon
you know what we do best
you know how to dance and to sing

Lady fingers dancing bare
feel your fingers dancing there
you know how to swim
but you can't keep from drowning

Sometimes they forget
better yet, keep them close
cause it comes as no surprise
the sun got in my eyes

Sunshine on my face
burning embers
they don't lie
put it close to my lips
kiss it kiss it goodbye
for the last time
for the last time
for the last time
for the last time

Spaced Out
( sung by dave )

spaced out
for a couple of days now
if its daylight
together we might

yet by word of mouth
the whole world is spaced out
dreaming of just how
holes in the road
smooth out on this ride
if its this route
hop in lets get spaced out
for a couple of days now
Joe south spills out of my mouth
yeah, the games people play when their spaced out all day

And it gives me great pleasure
to introduce the kids out there
where two bits in the summertime is ecstasy squared
and god damn the universe at somebody's rave?
and pulled out the ? and less better days

yeah but I find some still missing time
so its you and me and together were spaced out
with nothing to fret about
-except-
curtains are fine but shutter make lines
sometimes sun shines
shows were spaced out
in such a good place now
I spy your shadow go by
it goes in and out and in and out

and it gives great pleasure to introduce  the kids out there
where two bits in the summer time is ecstasy shared
and goddamn the universe at somebody's grave
and pulled out the ?? in less better days

yeah but I find, some still missing time
and it you and me and together we're spaced out

if its daylight together we're spaced out
holes in the road smooth out and we're spaced out
I spy your shadow go by
you see its you and me
together we're spaced . . .

Centuries
( sung by dave )

fall into centuries
I feel the sting, I feel the sting
don't you

Walked this tread a thousand times
I never died, no I never lied
no, not to you

Within my reach for centuries
still it seams, all your dream
brand new

So now I hear that your lonely
well, hows that feel
I heard it gone lost
the only thing
keeps your blue moon shine still

Walk these shores of continents
of discontent
oh ho, I wish it meant
for you

I bought a nail from Jesus Christ
from his house in France
well, its a good luck charm
just like you

I was promised once so long ago
it would stop the flow
oh it let it go
will we ever know, how to

All I ask is
are you satisfied my love
all I ask is
are you satisfied my love
only asking
aren't you satisfied by now
won't you ask me
if I'm satisfied
satisfy me

Sail these seas on sinking ships
to initial it
oh what a trip
I owe you

bow many bags of bad advice
by selling wines
buying time
for you

I drown in dreams all these years
and if I know his
thats where the problem is
boo hoo

Now I hear that your lonely
Well, hows that feel
I heard it gone, lost
the only thing
it keeps his blue moon shine still
it keeps his blue moon shine still

Sweetest Thing
( sung by dave )

Dropped like a rake
yeah I'm falling from the sky
and I land somewhere between you and him

But when you said
it'd be forever
thats the sweetest thing I ever heard
thats the sweetest thing I ever heard
thats the sweetest thing I ever heard
the sweetest thing

drunk like a snake
I'm falling into the ground
but I land somewhere between you and him

fought by the lake, how many souls does it take
losing my mind, am I wasting your time

sweetest thing I ever heard
thats the
sweetest thing I ever heard
thats the
sweetest thing I ever heard
thats the
sweetest thing I ever heard
thats the
sweetest thing I ever heard
sweetest thing I ever heard
sweetest thing I ever heard

Happy
 (sung by scott )

Underneath that crown
you always wear a frown
on such a perfect face
its really out of place
I lay awake at night
and hope tomorrow night
to make you happy

happy

happy

Underneath that crown
your rays a bit unwound
its such a perfect fit
from all those pills you slip
and when you turn it on
that's when we get along
you see, suddenly your happy
happy
happy
happy

a frozen cup is bound to crack
tried one cup too matter

and the cup thats cracked  is written there by itself and you and it never learns( or something like that )

underneath it all
your still my beacon call
your still my better end
you still my only friend
I lay awake at night
and hope tomorrow night
to make you happy
happy
happy
happy
happy

( sung by dave )

? can tumble
a simple erection
mine is faver the succulent matter
oh that wicked thing

shes on the floor
from the apples she bore
for the prettiest one
who can't be ignored

That wicked thing
That wicked thing
That wicked thing
That wicked thing

behind the linen
the dogs are still barking
the knights in shining armor
well who are they calling out to

torn is the night when I wait on the sun
she echoes well
something must be done
about that wicked thing

did you see did you hear

That wicked thing
That wicked thing

Behind the henhouse
the dogs are still barking
the knights in shining armor

Seen on the floor
from the apples she bore

Blood Thirsty Lovers
( sung by dave )

Let me take you to the hotel come on
we haven't got much time
if we stick together
we'll have a real good life

One thing I got to know up front
is can you pay my rent
she led her eyes to the top end
and away we went

Yeah, she did it to me
I think the devil kissed me
will power, it's now or never
yeah, she did this to me

Oh no, it looks like the bad lucks here again
at the stroke of midnight
I saw a black cat cringe
then the car went crashing
and the place got ripped
underneath the spotlight
blood thirsty lovers
blood thirsty lovers
blood thirsty lovers

Yeah, she did it to me
I think the devil kissed me
will power, it's now or never
yeah, she did this to me

blood thirsty lovers
blood thirsty lovers
blood thirsty lovers
blood thirsty lovers
blood thirsty lovers
blood thirsty lovers

Yeah, she did it to me
I think the devil kissed me
will power, it's now or never
yeah, she did this to me

Hours
( sung by scott )

oh, yes I know
it's a lonely thing I'm good at
then it goes away, just like the hours
where do the hours go to?
where do the hours go to?

sea-shell bright, while the hours away in the night
and all they ignore, we do

oh, yes I know, its the only thing I'm good at
and it goes away just like the hours
where the hours go to
where the hours go to
where the hours go to

I feed your life,
keen, sharp, high
linger on in my light, would you?

Forgive slight,
your tongue lies, untied,
dangle on my knife, would you?

back to top

Cigarette
( sung by scott )

Yeah, you lie like a dog
or should I say
its more like a rat

Yeah, like a snake in the grass
shy and cool
well look out for my cat

'cause nothing intrigues me more
then a red haired women
she says she don't seem to see the light in my room

Yeah, your talking so loud
step outside
watch it
hell yeah

Yeah, I'm talking that trash
and its fine
'cause I know you like it

'cause nothing intrigues me more
then a red haired women
she don't seem to see the light in day

Here we are, with five bags of gold
should we run should we hide
oh its your choice stop your crying
'cause your face is so beautiful

and nothing inflames me more
then a red haired women
I promise you won't see the light of day

While working on this line
you came across my mind

While digging in the yard

and I'm thinking that it come from you
'cause no one ever visits me
unless I'm just a total wreck

and the rumors that you were never found
and the presence of things no one can explain

See today, is Tuesday, the fourth of November
two weeks since you were last in my life
I wanna know, where did you go
and did you disappear into the light

While staring at the phone
I pictured you at home
bored out of your mind
with nothing more to do than
picture me calling you
