HIGH TREASON
Well I braved the untraveled path
I've gone many a nights without sleep
I've had lots of ideas that could make me rich
But somehow they just never keep

 

Millions of onlookers o'er the falls
Stand with mouths open and their eyes ajar
They can't believe just what they've seen
Involving the police chief

 

He stands there so crooked and speaks of forlorn
Gently pulls down the shade
Hopes that the light it won't silhoutte
His rejoicing for he's got it made

 

All the young men wear their hats backwards
I guess it's the latest thing
They preach of morals and working 9-5
But me see I'd rather sing

 

For the beat road that I hitch-hiked
Helped to shape me up
But on my search for knowledge I leapt
And spilt the answer that was inside the cup

 

Then I kindly asked but to my dismay
Seems like the whole thing was lost
But the funniest part was as I was leaving
They arrested me for not paying their cost

 

They tried me hard and the judge never smiled
He just adjusted his toupee
I told him how unfair it was to charge me
For I left without even gettin' my pay

 

He said it was my loss it wasn't his
And that I still broke the law
He said you were free but now you're hooked
Like a rat clung tight to our paw

 

Then while they slept I ran off for good
I swore never to return
But now I have to spend the rest of my life
Lookin' around each and every turn

 

COSMIC FORTUNE
A lake of fire and hearts aglow
Time to retire come friend or foe

Your company keeps the sun from scorchin'
Along with beauty my cosmic fortune

 

Cosmic fortune keeps the sun
Shining through the night

Cosmic fortune keeps the sun
Shining through the night

A lake of fire and hearts aglow

 

LEAVIN' FOR THE NILE
Yes and I'm sitting on top of the world
Wondering aloud who it is that's to blame
For all the time that's come and gone
Searching for a face or a name

 

Someone who I can put it all on
Somehow I know I just ain't that strong
Have I just been fooling myself
Has it been my fault all along

 

Green fields now surrender to the snow outside
Great barren prairie extending far and wide
Reached past my door and blows my mind
Why I'm here's the reason I'm looking to find

 

(CHORUS)
I'm leaving this place
Going for a while
I'm leaving for the nile

 

Sometimes I just don't know what to do
N'matter what I try I just can't get through
We're not that distant so we still can speak
Don't go playing it cool and meek

 

I want you to be honest and true
Never lie and we'll be great
And remember each night we spent apart
To see each other again I can't wait

REPEAT CHORUS

 

FOLLOW YOUR HEART
Oh lately babe I've been a little confused
Feelin' all washed up and pretty used
But see you always stayed
You never strayed
Except when I ran

 

And to nobody's big surprise
Seems like forever this feeling inside
Eating me so deep it I can no longer hide

 

(CHORUS)
She says follow your heart
Follow your heart, follow your heart to me
Follow your heart
She tells me follow your heart
Follow your heart to be free

 

Contemplate the future
Where it is I'm going to
Don't know if there's anything left to do
But if it could stay just the way we were
Feelings wouldn't be hurt of that I'm sure

 

Your eyes still love
But we're growing, growing so fast
I hope we don't grow apart
I hope we can last

REPEAT CHORUS

Decision time down to the last breath
My very conscience is lifelessness
Can't make up my mind I'm confused as hell
Where this train is going I can't tell

 

I can only follow my heart
Follow my heart
Follow my heart to you
Follow my heart, follow my heart
Follow my heart to be true
So I can love you

 

REVOLUTION (ADNA GAP ORP)
Drop your boyhood pride
There's no use anymore
We can't coincide
To recent acts of war
We must restore peace evermore

 

When you think about it
The earth is just a ball
Sometimes we get so caught up
In the madness of it all
We must restore peace evermore

 

Revolution x3
But first we gotta change
First we gotta change

 

I see a new plague coming
By the visions on TV
Propaganda's running rampant
One side is all we see
Now I just grow tired and sleep to pass the time

 

But this is our fair warning
Of our short mortality
Which will be cut even shorter
By bio-war technology
History is saying stop the war

Revolution x3
But first we have to change
But first we gotta change

 

YOU'LL NEVER KNOW...NATURALLY
I ran out on the corner to try and see what they would sell me
But they just simply smiled and rode on ahead
If I could only get just what they sent me
I guess I wouldn't be alone instead of satisfied

 

Sitting in a thought
Each and every a place
I ate up my meals
Without saying grace

 

I was told to hold on to what little I had
My feet were a wet and I was in a pain
I ran off down there with the cruelest of measures
And mustered mere slurrings of what I had to explain

 

My head it starts a sweatin' and I felt a cool rise
I blessed it behind me in the blistering sun
I held you that night through the north of our lives
And I think that you know that I think you're the one

 

Where was I to look
When the scenery changed
Every which way watching
Glances being exchanged

 

Feelings abounded I think you were right
My pony beside me's no longer my bride
I take what they give me though naturally I confide
To myself in an answer on this life's lonely ride

 

Now whose to say to which man now I think he was right
And I ain't going saying that you're mean and unkind
But tell me in an answer rather than a letter
Where does a heart go when hurts there to find

 

MOONLIGHT TRACKING
When the winter winds start howling
And the lone wolf starts his prowling
I take down my .303 above the door
 

To prepare for his destruction
I make sure there's no obstruction
And I head to track him as I have before

 

But he senses that I'm coming
There's no way he'll be succumbing
So he leads a merry chase around the moor
 

As I check my ammunition
I've a very big suspicion
He thinks that he's playing with an amateur

 

Thoughts of his annihilation
Gives me great anticipation
That some day I'll hang his hide upon the wall
 

Now although I'm getting weary
And perhaps a little leary
That I may not catch him now until the fall

 

As I track him through the bushes
I've a feeling that he pushes
And he knows he'll get away again to-night
 

So I trail a little faster
Wonderin' who is now the master
For by now I've lost his tracks their out of sight

 

Now to give up on this tracking
To my job had best be cracking
As I hear a far off wolf cry it's a croon
 

For I know that he is smiling
And my antics he's compiling
As again I hear his yodel to the moon

 

SINCERELY, MANANA
Well I've sat and walked a mile
Sat there many times in denial
And I've dreamed of the misty highlands
Dreamt of rubbing my toes in foreign sands

 

Well I sing to warn of war
Like I'll do next time and do forever more
But I don't like to sit and wait
Gonna take my time before it gets too late
Doin' it now while I can still negotiate

 

I dreamt of rubbing my toes in foreign sands
Doin' it now while I can still negotiate
Manana

 

GENTLY IN THE PALM OF HER HAND
(CHORUS)
You made me weak when I was strong
Told me the answers I wanted to hear
Right or wrong

 

But don't you know we had some good ol' days
Drinking wine in the sun
With all the aristocrats who stumbled
And spoke of tribal law

 

With all the joking in comedic fashion
We raced on to the show
Just a few more miles or clicks
I guess I'll never know

REPEAT CHORUS

I had a vision in a modern place
I was broke down low
With 50 cents and a mystery
And many miles to go

 

Soon the air became a misty red
And the maiden kissed the moon
Held it ever so gently in the palm of her hand
Like a child with a balloon

REPEAT CHORUS

 

GOOD AS DEAD
We'll I'm leaving this place just as soon's I rest my head X2
For feeling like I do I can't stay for I'm good as dead

 

I'm gonna get high gonna fly up to the moon X2
Well I'll watch my step I won't stumble on no silver spoon

 

Thoughts like these are bound to bring you down X2
Make you feel like nobody make you want to just leave town

 

I rest for awhile in some abandoned bed X2
Don't know why I stayed guess it's cause I'm good as dead

 

I'm bound to walk but I know you're gonna drive X2
Ain't no use babe there ain't nothing here to revive

 

Well I'm leaving this place just as soon's I rest my head X2
For feeling like I do I can't stay for I'm good as dead

 

TRAPPED INSIDE AMERICA
Well I'm trapped inside America with long hair and a tan
I'm fightin' off the government I"m fighting off the man
Who comes up to me and says boy don't I know your name
I said yes maybe you do but I refuse to play your game

Next thing I know I start singing a melody
And he is bombing Iraq for all the oil he can steal

 

For we got the mercy of a nation on it's heel
Pres. Bush just won't stop you can hear the bombs a squeal
And he sounds like Nixon of a modern time
And he says to send money be it telephone or online
Next thing I know he's moving into Kuwait
To be stealing some more oil I know he just can't wait

 

I ran off for temptation to where the secret eagle lands
I see him with his oily blood stained hands
Then he smiles at me with a devilish look
Thinks that I don't know about all the things that he took
Well a tap on my shoulder it would awaken me
When I seen the FBI pointin' their guns mysteriously

REPEAT FIRST VERSE

 

OH BABY I LOVE YOU (TO WANT YOU)
The first night we met I was electrofried
That first kiss I almost up and died
Well I treated you like a poem
That always ends a little long
So now you can hear me
Squak and moan this song
You want me like a clock to coo
Oh baby I love you to want you
And she said yes I know it's true
Oh baby I love you to want you

 

I do what I can even though I'm out of range
You got my skin crawling and it feels kinda strange
But I'd never tell you a lie
Even in the desert dry
I want you to be sweet
Because you got me laying at your feet
But forever just won't do
Oh baby I love you to want you
She said you'll help to make me feel less blue
Oh baby I love you to want you

 

In me you never doubted
But my head was feeling clouded
And I had thoughts that provoke
A long since gone old time feeling
The kind that is no joke
Leaves me feeling very free-a-wheelin'
Let's get together and rendezvous
Oh baby I love you to want you
I will not take an I.O.U
Oh baby I love you to want you

 

I know sometimes I get so insecure
I get hot and you take my temperature
But to one end I can't relate
And thus pending can never debate
The forcefulness so very quaint
I must regain self-restraint
You know you're my special honeydew
Oh baby I love you to want you
From Paris, France to Timbuktu
Oh baby I love you to want you

 

Our love was very naturalistic
Far from perfect but idealistic
But I threw it all away
On a wintery Christmas Day
And the memory will always be near
'Twill have me hanging from the chandelier
And the forgiveness that's to ensue
Oh baby I love you to want you
Come walk with me down the avenue
Oh baby I love you to want you

 

Now we're lying in bed it's partly dark
And I hear a neighborhood dog park
So I stare into yer eyes
And avidly apologize
You just tell me it's alright
Once again I love you goodnight
It's too late for a game of peek-a-boo
Oh baby I love you to want you
I said forget I just wanna screw
Oh baby I love you to want you

 

You told me that I was such a poet
I smiled and said don't ya know it
And the best unspoken thing
Is how you'd make my heart a-ring
I want you to be true
Cause baby I'm right digging you
She said let's up and start somewhere new
Oh baby I love you to want you
And I said yes that's the thing to do
Oh baby I love you to want you

 

BETTY
How many times have I missed you
And how many times have I cried
How many teardrops have fallen
Since that sad day you died

 

Thousands of times I have missed you
And longed for that smile on your face
But you have gone up to heaven
And I miss your sweet warm embrace

 

Forever and ever I'll love you
That vow once again I will make
Knowing in heaven you hear me
That vow I will never forsake

 

A lifetime of happy mem'ries
We spent here since you were my bride
Now I'm waiting here and lonely
'Till I cross to life's other side

 

I know that in heaven I'll join you
That day we will both be as one
Starting forever together
Our eternity's just begun

 

Until my last day I shall miss you
And pray that it's just a short while
When once again we'll be together
And forever I'll see your dear smile
