i tell you boil
well hey it’s high time you know
motherfucker it’s right now sun down

Driving Your Car
no time
to waste
moonlight
the greed
it tastes
so fun
long time coming
i break
you shout
the ford
it shakes
the red
and the brown
long time coming
i’m driving your car tonight
you hear that knockin
that ain’t the engine
just stay in the back
it’ll be easier for you
if you don’t i’ll tie it down
with the low end bass
and a spare for the both of us
long time coming
it’s a long time coming
i’m driving your car tonight
Big Black Sequoia
fire
corner of myrtle and grand
they play at night
before the dawn
rollin strong
orange the sky
light the night up
in your home
think i might have figured the point
slow it all down
got to leave, go, run on out of town
cause a big black sequoias finally down
ya a big black sequoia s finally down
well their singing get on up in the middle of the night
i see a fire
state wide ya it’s moving along
wind it came
now the rain
who said it’s wrong?
two thousand years
standing there
who’s got the time
i think they’re trying to blur out the lines
between the ash owners and homes
got to leave, go, run on out of town
cause a big black sequoias finally down
ya a big black sequoia s finally down
their singing get on up in the middle of the night
it’s growin higher than it was before
that’s all that i can give well see me rise from the floor
my brother said get on up before i burn it down
he said you gotta to get on up before i burn it down
they said you gotta get on up before it burns to the ground
did he say i’m gonna get you up before i burn it down
ya well some day your gonna lose the will, ya fighter
it’s growin higher than it was before
that’s all you gonna get see me rise from the floor
my brother said get on up before i burn it down
he said you gotta to get on up before i burn it down
that big black sequoias finally down
Instincts
you can see the rip in my eye
you wouldn’t know what to do
don't blink or tell me why
you don't slow when i'm quick to move
take inside the need to bend
around your joy to see the hand that's
killing the right mind
preserving the instincts
if it's just a natural way
or habits tossed in a slough
could you keep worry at bay
and bet a house on the cards you drew
you need to know what stands what lies
momentary judgement cries
kill the right mind
preserve the instincts
all that is sane for a little time to be in the prime
all that is sane for a little time to be in the prime
now the floodline’s overhead
you chose what you chose to sell
dream a dream of your own bed
and help us build a house in hell
the scent is sweet
the sun it shines
the world you’ve drawn
between the lines of
killing the right mind
preserving the instincts
all that is sane for a little time to be in the prime
all that is sane for a little time to be in the prime
Build Them An Image
build them an image over the eye
kiss the candy say goodbye
to the veil on their eyes
what is seen was always shown
and they come for lost attention
give them all forever they always knew
build them an image over the eye
here it comes the big big lie
for our new lifetime again
split the source mine to share
every breeder needs it’s pairs
pick the new swallow the old
new breed old possession
waking dream capitulation
did you hear the other side
mind crimes in the vestibule
they’ll never turn or change or lose
through the walls i’ll turn and shoot
build them an image over the eye
Hours & Days
you’re mine
for all time
in the hours and days and months and years in line
unless we change
change our mind
do they say that was my crime
that one time they tried
when the weather comes on down
the cars grow and lock your town
and the radio plays only 1 or 2 sounds
she says lonely stranger
in my head same as the dead
closer to the last time
you’re mine
for all time
i’m counting the hours and the days and every moment we choose
unless we change
change our mind
when we say we need more time
more time to arrive
for the hours and days and months and years
the odds grow in our time
they still remember their one crime
unless we change
change our mind
they’ll say that was our crime
your mine
for all time
in the hours and days and months and years in line
in the hours and days and months and years in line
for the hours and days and months and years in line
for generations only one made peace
maybe more but not over my mother
everyday the homeless spread the streets
is that guy an orphan, guy is still an orphan
selling diamonds by the light outside
even junior’s got a mobile in the pocket
new neighbors moving in by night
sharon seeville
all over people
sharon seeville’s getting her axle replaced
city pavers don’t come around here anymore
she says she’s got 50 cent got a cigarette
not today sharon no not tomorrow either
little primos got a new set of wheels
morning comes and he’s still in at night
pile of butts he’ll leave outside
no sharon seeville
all over people
what good is it, if i give it to you
buy a bag of chips
smoke them cigarettes
oh what do i know
here ya go
there’s a moment when alarms ring high
shoulder over shoulder take the long way round
little big tip poppin by roadside
no time to waiver, no time for favors
ya i’ll jump your car just gimmie some time
work the weekend dumping all them tires
same guys will patch a hole in the middle of the street
then got 50 cent, got a cigarette now
what good is it, if i give it to you
buy a bag of chips
smoke them cigarettes
what do i know
here ya go
Iron Shoes
see the iron shoes
before the change
before you play
you in the lines of your fools voodoo blues
if your leaving the ground you might just break the frame
of references playing
the show were all writing and playing
you tell it to tell you
see yourself in view
you set the stage
you rule the way
it's written and it's told broken from your mold
small chance in making it real
in a dirty weightless mirror
turning trial in mind to something i’dfollow
well everybody
has the story
everybody
makes it more
everybody
makes it so much more than
you tell it to tell you
Dreaming In The Town
gentle slide in the rule that’s gonna take me on and over
doing it slow
once again
now once again
roots are tied and the only one that sees is on the roof of my back door
once again
once again
lift on up
don’t pretend at all
lift on up
don’t pretend at all
at all
dirty walk in the lowlands ‘neath the risers
and the growers
shout again
shout again
all just and i’ll be all you’ve ever need if we’re the only say now please
march again
now march again
and i’m dreaming in the town
