LYRICS
there was a decorated general with a heart of gold
that likened him to all the stories he told
of past battles won and lost and legends of old
a seasoned veteran in his own time
on the battlefield he gained respectful fame
with many metals of bravery and stripes to his name
he grew a beard as soon as he could to cover the scars on his face
and always urged his men on
but on the eve of a great battle with the infantry in dream
the old general tossed in his sleep and wrestled with its meaning
he awoke from the night just to tell what he had seen
and walked slowly out of his tent
all the men held tall with their chests in the air
with courage in their blood and a fire in their stare
it was a grey morning and they all wondered how they would fare
til the old general told them to go home
I have seen the others and I have discovered that this fight is not worth fighting
I have seen their mothers and I will no other to follow me where Im going
take a shower shine your shoes you got no time to lose
you are young men you must be living
go now you are forgiven
but the men stood fast with their guns on their shoulders
not knowing what to do with the contradicting orders
the general said he would do his own duty bout would not extend it not further
the men could go as they pleased
not a man moved their eyes glazed straight ahead
til one by one they stepped back and not a word was said
and the old general was left with his own words echoing in his head
he then prepared to fight
I have seen the others and I have discovered that this fight is not worth fighting
I have seen their mothers and I will no other to follow me where Im going
take a shower shine your shoes you got no time to lose
you are young men you must be living
go now you are forgiven
ya got to be got to got be to got to be hey

LYRICS
Hold it now, hold tight to the line, then fall back, those who are nearly drowned, don’t fear the rain in the storm
On an earlier night, I would’ve known better but tonight I’m tired, too tired to stay warm
Stoned enough, stoned enough, to gather in the night
if your shaking, if your shaking then come inside
4 and 20 blackbirds
There goes indigo bunting, a dark eyed junko at her side
they both looked like they’d been crying and I hesitated to ask why
There was a picture of a lost cat nailed to a tree, you could see it in it’s eyes
Woefully I, woefully I, stood there and tried to be
Stoned enough, stoned enough, to gather in the night
if your shaking, if your shaking then come inside
the finch was singing to the blackbirds in the pie
sorry I, sorry I was ever born
but they paid him no mind, they were busy counting
the common grackle in the caucus, as the thrashers they aligned .. they were
Stoned enough, stoned enough, to gather in the night
if your shaking, if your shaking, if your shaking then get inside")

LYRICS:
Staring at the pen and ink drawings
There’s a crow who’s starting to bleed
I go to the bookshelf, myself and a picture of a girl in a bikini
Jumping off a dock falls out of page 43
I think it’s my brother’s old girlfriend who’s married to a woman now
My father walks like he’s run out of oil
He lurches and jerks his way around the farm
My mother walks towards him the same way she led her last horse away from the barn
We’d just built a fire to soften up the ground
You could see her saying through her tears its okay boy, come follow me one last time
Maybe, don’t know, can’t tell, if it’s so good
So good, so good, to be living right now
My kids are still young, barely weigh anything
I can carry them easy on each arm,
But I told them I wouldn’t be able to do that forever
And sometimes when I’m carrying them both
The older one says, hey look dad, you can still carry me
Maybe, don’t know, can’t tell
Yeah but it’s so good, so good to be living right now
So good, so good, it’s so good to be living right now
Maybe, don’t know, can’t tell
Yeah but it’s so good, so good to be living right now
Yeah but its so good, so good, it’s so good to be living right now")

LYRICS
I never been to London
You never been to Spain
I never been to war, you never been to prison
But we never been the same
After all is said and done
There was so much more to relate
Now the world will never know just what it lost that day
Give me some hotdamn, give me some birdman, give me some Proud Mary
The one with Claudia Lennear
Give me that mix tape, give me those school days,
Give me some hard cider the one we did not mean to make
I was never beaten down like you were
I got to grow up in your wake
Momma always protected you, and dad was my ticket away
And after all that was said and done
There was so much more to relate
Now the world will never know just what it lost that day
Give me some hotdamn, give me some birdman, give me some Proud Mary
The one with Claudia Lennear
Give me that mix tape, give me those school days,
Give me some hard cider the one we did not mean to make
In prison there was more drugs than i ever seen
And they let me stay out all night and trip the starlight til my soul was clean
And when i got out, I began my journey to the east
As they were filling you up with pills
Give me some hotdamn, give me some birdman, give me some Proud Mary
The one with Claudia Lennear
Give me that mix tape, give me those school days,
Give me some hard cider the one we did not mean to make
Give me that long skate, give me that heartache
Give me some Proud Mary the one with Claudia Lennear
Give me that penalty kill, give me some big chill
You be Dignan Redding, i’ll be Atticus Cobain")

LYRICS
Higher yet my love, the water is rising
Up on the counter my love, grab a hold tightly
Don’t you let go my dear, I can’t let you die
‘Til you’re as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
Look both ways my dear, don’t trip on your laces
But here you lie shot in your sleep by a bullet gone stray
You gave me your blessing to keep you alive
‘Til you’re as old as I, as old as I, as old as I,
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
I’ll take all your baggage, I’ll take all your baggage
And I’ll give you mine for the passage of the time, for the distance
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
For the distance
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I, as old as I

LYRICS
Oh Do you know there’s a place you can go
A place that is weathered and worn
But you can’t stay there long
like the plow and the stone
but you can wait if you like to be born
Born to a dark heaven on earth
Plagued by man’s greed and sorrow, sorrow and hurt
Born also to the beauty of tomorrow
Leading us back to the dirt
The old oak tree watches us like we were bees
Flitting and frittering in the golden
Everybody knows, we all died yesterday
And the day after that we were born
Born to a dark heaven on earth
Plagued by man’s greed and sorrow, sorrow and hurt
But Born also to the beauty of tomorrow
Leading us back to the dirt

LYRICS
Came of age racing round the Georgia hills
Grew tall and straight around the backwood stills
you could do anything on the court and field, but you preferred getting high on the roof of the motel
One by one all the living that we done, how the days they seemed so long and true
One by one all the whiskey that got drunk, nothing ever felt as good as you
I saw you first from the back of the room
We drank together by the light of the moon
Built a fire and slept when the ground chooses you and wake up with the morning sun
One by one all the living that he done, how the days they seemed so long and true
One by one all the whiskey that got drunk, nothing ever felt as good as you
But can you give us all a sign, I don’t know how to let go or hold tighter still,
remember when you were mine
but now it’s all over, no chance to reconsider, I want to call you in from the outside, I want
to call you in for dinner
but you’re not there, you’re not there, what do I do with the years I have left that don’t belong to you
One by one all the living that he done, how the days they seemed so long and true
One by one all the whiskey that got drunk, nothing ever felt as good as you
Let’s get a jump on this, before it’s too late, can we love each other harder before we all fade away, if there’s any way that we can live without you, it’s to live with all the love that you gave

LYRICS
… Thats great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes, and aeroplanes
And Lenny Bruce is not afraid
… Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs
Dont mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no, strength
The ladder starts to clatter
With a fear of height, down, height
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasnt coming in a hurry
With the Furies breathing down your neck
… Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped
Look at that low plane, fine, then
Uh oh, overflow, population, common group
But itll do, save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched
… Its the end of the world as we know it
Its the end of the world as we know it
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
… Six oclock, T.V. hour, dont get caught in foreign tower
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn
Lock him in uniform, book burning, bloodletting
Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a motive, step down, step down
Watch your heel crush, crush, uh oh
This means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline
… Its the end of the world as we know it (I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it (I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
I feel fine (I feel fine)
… Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
… The other night I drifted nice continental drift divide
Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein
Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs
Birthday party, cheesecake, jellybean, boom
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam but neck, right, right
… Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
… Its the end of the world as we know it
Its the end of the world as we know it
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
… Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)
… Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it (time I had some time alone)
Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine (time I had some time alone)

LYRICS
would you be the wind to blow me home
would you be a dream on the wings of a poem
and if you were walking through a crowd
well you know Id be proud
if youd call my name out loud
do you suppose that I would come running
do you suppose Id come at all
I suppose I would
and if we were walking down a dead end street
would you be the one to let our eyes meet
or would you just keep on walking down to the turn around
cause you know Id be proud
if youd call my name out loud
do you suppose that I would come running
do you suppose Id come at all
I suppose I would
and if I was gone from the land we know
would be the dawn and let your beauty still show
and if you were walking and heard the cold night coming
would you call my name cause you know Id come running
if youd call my name out loud
you know I would
I’d come running
if you’d call my name out loud")
