Car Parking Spaces At The Library 03:46

I see I’m all alone here on my own I see there ain’t nobody else at home There’s dirt in the alleyway Dust in the loft My footstep falls are way too soft There's no explanation, no signs of a fight An air of resignation to some pitiful plight yeah well it must have been contagious a life or death thing Don’t mean to be outrageous I just wanna sing oh I see the fire ain’t burning so bright They turned on you just for spite and nobody holds a candle light To you… to you Let the fools line up right where they stand they’ll make you regret it soon as you lend a hand Only thing left of this democracy Is car-parking spaces at the library I see I ’m all alone here, on my own I see there ain’t nobody else at home There's dirt in the alleyway, dust in the loft My footstep falls are way too soft Oh your fire ain't burning so bright they turned on you just for spite but nobody holds a candlelight to you Oh your fire ain't burning so bright they turned on you just for spite but nobody holds a candlelight to you to you to you well sing it from the mountaintops a clarion call say it’s all for one and one for all lest the only thing left of this democracy Is car parking spaces at the library is car parking spaces at the library the library

Leave Well Enough Alone 02:42
lyrics

Keep me away from the devil tonight Me I keep on praying for some kind of guiding light Beseeching and reaching for those live part time inside my phone Ain’t a one of us knows how to leave well enough alone Keep me away from temptation’s open maw Bound to feast on my sweet release I know that's what it’s looking for Befriending my crew and stalking a few and then throwing em away like a bone Ain’t a one of us knows how to leave well enough alone Don’t sleep through the credits babe you’ll never know what’s going down Don’t tantalise your bedroom eyes with guys who say they have a place uptown Stand shoulders back and your shoes on the track to the place where your dreams have grown Ain’t a one of us knows how to leave well enough alone You and I both know there’s too much information going ‘round We all need to feed the seeds of trust before we spend a penny or a pound When all your loans are making you moan and all your credit lines are blown From your ruby red lips you let slip you got to split and strike out on your own It ain’t up to me to say if only I had known Cos Ain’t a one of us knows how to leave well enough alone Ain’t a one of us knows how to leave well enough alone

My head is broken, my spine won’t bend my pockets are a burning for a dollar one to spend your tickled pink laughter was a bird song call your silver-tone thigh left a stain on the wall oh my baby oh my baby well it’s all pale in the shadow of you I can’t think I can’t speak I try to breath but my breathe too weak well you live so big you make the world feel small wise men act a fool under the weight of it all oh my baby oh my baby it’s all pale in the shadow of you They’ll steal your clothes they will steal your car steal your haircut they will keep it in a jar they will love you til the love runs dry they will come back again just to watch you fry oh my baby oh my baby it’s all pale in the shadow of you oh my baby oh my baby it’s all pale in the shadow of you

Life Of Crime 03:06
lyrics

I know you’ve heard it all before But lip service won’t pay for the plight of the poor I know you’ve heard it all before But you turn the sick and homeless away from your door Hey man, I aim to turn your head Oh woman, I aim to turn your head And if I can turn your head just one time Maybe hypocrisy will be seen as a life of crime The children weep, the babies starve Their faces are cut into the trees we carve We buy them cheap and we sell them hard Their cries can be heard in the careers we carve Hey man, I aim to turn your head Oh woman, I aim to turn your head And if I can turn your head just one time Maybe hypocrisy will be seen as a life of crime The churches rob and the churches steal your weekly confession is another cheap deal The governors mixing drinks for the corporate shills Jesus turns in the grave the devil got the chills Hey man, I aim to turn your head Oh woman, I aim to turn your head And if I can turn your head just one time Maybe hypocrisy will be seen as a life of crime Hey man, I aim to turn your head Oh woman, I aim to turn your head And if I can turn your head just one time Maybe hypocrisy will be seen as a life of crime I know you heard it all before but lip service won't pay for the plight of the poor

Love is here Somewhere deep within Come too near And it may sink or swim Open up your heart We all will die one day Too late to regret All those things you did not say Don’t be keeping yourself unto yourself That is too great a load Reach out for the one you love That is the only road The only road Love is here Somewhere deep within Lose your foolish pride Let the game of life begin All those nights you cried Tears you shed in vain Don’t have to be denied They don’t have to come again Open up your heart Cos we all die in the end Too late to regret All those things you did not say Open up your heart We all will die one day Open up your heart We all will die one day

Another Dimension 03:35
lyrics

You can live with the whole world on your shoulder It’s just a rehearsal for when you get older You can break your stupid neck Just to cash that old paycheck And lose yourself like some working class soldier But I live, I live, I live I say I just do live I live in another dimension I live in another dimension I live in another dimension I live I live I live I say I just do live I live in another dimension… You can see through the words if you want to They are just words and they break when you speak them You can drag both your feet When you are out on the street But they are just steps and they are gone once you take them…. I live in another dimension I live in another dimension I live I live I live I say I just do live in another dimension I live in another dimension No repo man on the wire no tension Live in sorrow and fear On ship you will never steer But just don’t look to me I ain’t gonna give in Live in sorrow and fear On ship you will never steer But just don’t look to me I ain’t gonna give in

Now you say you wanna go far away from me Makes me wonder what it was I did that was so wrong Now you’re keeping secrets but telling everyone you meet That we been going under and I did not see it coming on Well I wish I could Be the one whose loving you ev ery night for the rest of your life I wish I’d stood Up to all those crazy naysayers babe who told me I had no right To be with you for the rest of your life You know it’s hard to keep myself together After all these years Doing everything for two and now you you started grinding on the gears I’m telling people it’s all good and we are hanging on But babe I know they see it written in my eyes, our love is lost our love is gone Tell me one last time so I can let it go Give me hope our love won’t die in a puff of second hand smoke Tell me peace will reign for ten thousand years You say love it falls like rain - well that explains this river of tears

Love is a cruel and foolish thing It don’t wait for the weary Or the gifts they bring It don’t want no piece of paper Or the words therein It don’t care about our crisis Or the mess we’re in And don’t go thinking it was all a waste of time And don’t go telling me I’m just losing my mind Love is a cruel and foolish thing Love is a cruel and foolish thing Talk about love, talk about love Talk about love, talk about love Love will not follow like the sheep in the heard It never listen to one of those meaningless words It don’t know no music but for the song it sings It don’t see no colours it don’t feel no strings And don’t go thinking it was all a waste of time And don’t go telling me I’m just losing my mi nd Love is a cruel and foolish thing Love is a cruel and foolish thing Talk about love, talk about love Talk about love, talk about love I saw you today with that look in your eyes You smiled like an ocean baby I could not realise Love came a rolling like a wave to the shore And I could not keep my heart to myself anymore And don’t go thinking it was all a waste of time And don’t go telling me I’m just losing my mind Love is a cruel and foolish thing Love is a cruel and foolish thing Talk about love, talk about love Talk about love, talk about love

Tell me one thing I can do To make your dreams come true You said I looked like death warmed up Baby tell me something new I got one good leg and one is broke Should have held my tongue but instead I spoke Is there one thing I can do for you To make your dreams come true Why not quit it with the bullshit crowd And rest your hand in mine The only friends that I got left Are the ones I plan to leave behind I got one good leg and one is broke When you run me over babe it weren’t no joke Is there one thing I can do for you to make your dreams come true If you got a problem babe Take another toke All your misery goes up in a cloud of must and smoke Is there one thing I can do for you To make your dreams come true

Won’t you tell me darling What it is that’s on your mind I got two open ears And I ain’t the hurting kind Well if you should come with me I promise I will never leave I got my head in a cloud See my heart is out there on my sleeve I know you are the one for me Maybe I could be the one for you Open your heart baby set it free I never had a love that felt so true As this love that I got for you Love that I got for you This love, love that I got for you This love, love that I got for you Love that I got for you Love that I got for you Say you’ll be mine babe right up til the end of time We got our whole lives to live babe I’m already towing the line I got two left feet darling Got me no dancing moves I save it all for loving babe But hey, we ain’t got nothing to prove I know you are the one for me Maybe I could be the one for you Open your heart baby set it free I never had a love that felt so true As this love I got for you This love Love that I got for you This love Love that I got for you Love that I got for you
