Ain't it Something Still trying to figure it out Ain't it Something I want to scream and shout Ain't it Something to pretend Duty's incomplete, But I feel strong Just want to hit the street, But the freeway's gone Ain't it Something Still trying to figure it out Ain't it something Come on let's scream and shout Ain't it something to transcend Duty's incomplete, But I feel strong Just want to hit the street, But the freeway's gone Like an old marquee with the spelling wrong As far as I can see, I'm right where I belong

Your Love 03:01
How many times must I lie All alone again at night Feel I've waited long enough For you love To fall over me Girl you know I'll be polite When you tell me I'm uptight But I'll always call your bluff When your love Is falling from me I just want to be your guy Take you out to eat for thai Don't know what I'm thinking of Cuz your love Is all I can see Girl, your love Is all that I need

Uncle Michael knows That as soon the wind blows You'll be a man It's not hard to understand It's a part of nature's plan That all life grows Uncle Michael knows (x2) There's a 50/50 chance that you were planned And your mother's bank account is in the red Your daddy's always golfing in japan And your would be older brother, He is dead Uncle Michael vows Though he doesn't quite know how He'll be your rock There's not much in his pocket But he's got stock on a rocket Into the clouds Uncle Michael vows (x2) There's a 50/50 chance that you were planned And your mother's bank account is in the red Your daddy's always golfing in japan And your would be older brother, He is dead One day when you're old enough to drink Tell loyal Uncle Michael what you think "I say this with no quiver and no wink: Uncle Michael, you're the reason I don't blink" There's a 50/50 chance that I was planned And my mother's bank account is in the red My daddy's always golfing in japan And my mother's younger brother's my best friend

Francine 04:37
All the feelings come to me Swarming like a honey bee My soul is on a cloud Whenever you're around Francine Francine My queen Francine Hit me like caffeine Enter my bloodstream Once we both come down Let's make a pretty ghost town All the little things Get the best of me Off by a degree Sorry for drifting Francine Francine My queen Francine

Every morning She sips caffeine beans To open her eyes To the lcd screens Fluid yearbooks Invisible magazines To compare people While researching her dreams Bottle caps on the floor The clock's approaching four The house gets tickled As it's starting to pour Whistle 'long To her favorite tune Sipping bottles Crying under the moon The moon Well I know you've seen her before She tripped over her son's skateboard on the way to the door She can no doubt digest an asteroid But that depression she's got, yep, well it's a real whore The moon

Your Wife 00:25

One little thing is all it took for me to want you back One little thing is all it took to cause a heart attack One little thing my darlin' One little thing my dear One little thing is all it took for me to want you here With me again You once were my best friend Let me pretend That we can't ever end One little thing is all it took for me to change my mind One little thing is all it took for me to wanna go back in time One little thing my darlin' One little thing my dear One little thing is all it took for me to want you here With me again No longer my best friend But it's cool Get bent Cuz I found another ten

Sea Miner 02:52
Once upon a time, there was a sea miner He looked straight into the sun Cuz he thought his life was done Thought his life was done Stranded, maritime, without a cheap diner He was tired and overrun And he missed his wife and son Missed his wife and son Till one drunken, rainy day When ole sea miner changed his ways He realized his outlook was to blame So he shaped his mind with golden clay And his life was won He could taste the sun Well if there's one thing sea miner knew It's with some effort, you can escape the blues If there's one thing sea miner proved It's that the way you feel is really up to you It's that the way you feel is really up to you
12.
Marshmallow skies with some olives for eyes I am numb to the bone There's nothing quite like just being alone Nothing to disrupt the zone Cookies and oatmeal and graham crackers too Cuz I'm still living at home What will saint nick slip inside my red shoe After some time, then I'll know Wanna go Go away On a space holiday Wanna go Run away On a space holiday

It's all about the little things Wherever you may go When you're walking your way home When you scan the radio Take note of all the little things Like a hot cup of joe Or an angel in the snow Or something cooking on the stove There's a message tied to a black crow And you're the only one who knows That it's all about the little things That's all you really need to know There's a message tied to a black crow You've gotta let the whole world know That it's all about the little things That's all you really need to know
