GIVEN ON DELIVERY
I got an itchy trigger finger
Rolling the blues around 26 hours a day
I hear that you’re a decent singer
Shall we find out if you can come out and play all day long
Come out and play
CHORUS
Given On Delivery
You Are Wonderful Energy, Hey
Almost Looks Like Another High
But Underneath the Dues Dance an Alternate Hawai’i
Maybe Under Half A Million Mums And Dads
Jump Every Hump Over Victory’s Asphalt
Keep Right, In Sight, Holding No Alms
Johnny English Sings Us Songs
If you go messing with the Jetsons
Better bring your oxygen tank and scuba
I lean towards retro effervescence
A cosmic hoedown of lunar bulls stampeding
Leading us on
CHORUS
You and Everything Seen
We Emulate All Regulated Entropy
We Effortlessly Alter Realty’s Esteem

NOVA
You've been runnin'
Since the day you realized you were open
You wouldn't end up in the desert, all alone & crying
And now you're greeted by the minister of wishin' & hopin'
Now you've learned a thing or three from dreams 'bout flyin'
CHORUS
And what I wouldn't give to see you
One day I might live to be you
Soaring like a nova in the sky
And each day is a new tomorrow
Beggar, stealer, lend or borrow
We all end up in the presence of the light
And now you find yourself ablaze in the new day's fashion
What you wouldn't give for a frosty margarita
Don't you remember what you told me in the sea of passion
And how I swore I'd never bore my little señorita
CHORUS
Start a rhythm and you know you're gonna get 'em
With the chorus, then the bridge, then the hook...

Love & Beef

LOVE AND BEEF
I hear the cattle are a fumin’ at the human
It’s a volatile mixture
Please take an ample bit of sample of each
And try it in for size
I find myself amazed at the way we phase it
Out of the picture
You know I’m banking that the flank and the tongue
Have sprung a big surprise on us all
CHORUS
Love & beef, love & beef
Love and be free (repeat)
Like so much curd we eat our own words
On a daily basis
It’s a cyclical, triplical extraordinary day in the sun
And every day a new flavor bathes in it’s own oasis
In & out like Flynn we begin to let our belts out
In so many ways
CHORUS
Eat me, said the bread to the prophet
Take me as your own sang the wine
Freeze ye, cried the officer and drop it
You have the right to not remain
To suffer not your pain
So choose and choose again…
CHORUS
You were born to be free

Broken

BROKEN
A frightened boy in a sad situation
His only toy is a bottle of booze
An angry male with a bad disposition
A rusty nail with nothing to lose
CHORUS
We did what we could, it do any good
‘Cause it’s broken
Let’s cut our losses today and quietly walk away
‘Cause it’s broken
A banged up girl with her own medication
A freaked up world that give a ration of compassion
As I dry her tears I feel my own fall upon her
You’re finished here, I’m taking you home; home
CHORUS
Take a step behind the scenery
And you thought all those accidents were real
Metropolis and greenery
Set design by you & me, yes you & me
Yeah, we are that we are
Nothing’s broken, nothing’s broken
Bro can you help me with a nickel or a dime
Or to be honest just a little of your time
Sister can you kiss her on the cheek
So that she can see that everything is gonna be just fine
Nothing’s broken

TRAVELING THROUGH TIME
Let flow the wine, one in each hand
We signify our last night on land
This air that we drink, this beer that we breathe
We’re not going to go till we’re ready to leave
CHORUS
Such is the case as we travel through time
All in a days work traveling through time
A question of taste and a suitable rhyme
Nothing is wasted traveling through time
Shed your tears of sorrow and joy
Mending the years, picking up toys
Nothing is truly gathered or gained
No soul is too old or lost to reclaim
CHORUS
Here’s to your land, here’s to your woman
And cheers to your family and friends
Hope you have seen enough of them
We shan’t return here again
CHORUS
Sample the wine, traveling through time
Try some of mine, traveling through time
Able to fly, traveling through time
Forever high, traveling through time
Subtle sublime, traveling through time
Gathering rhyme, traveling through time
Traveling through time

PROBABLY
He rounded up what he could
Though he knew it wouldn’t do him any good
Gently kissed his wife
Then crawled off to a brand new life
Never to defile again
CHORUS
But (he, she, we) probably, eventually will
Though (he’s, she’s, we’re) headed for a nasty spill
Yeah, (he, she, we) probably eventually will
(He, She, We) most certainly, probably will
She swore to herself & God
She wouldn’t end up with another oddball
This time gonna make it work
Nothing wrong with a little bit of flirting
She’s not gonna cross that line
CHORUS
Don’t get your panties in a bundle
Let it tumble like a wave of centrifugal motion
If’n you got the notion
Everyone is sheathing their swords
Everyone is polishing their armor
Bad news debuts in hordes
Fear’s a bitch and no one can disarm her
We’re lucky if we survive
CHORUS
We most certainly, probably, actually, presently
Yes, we undoubtedly will

For Freak's Sake

FOR FREAK’S SAKE
Crying & buying your way to emotional freedom
I’m counting on you for an employee discount
Spying on the boss and crossing yourself with her credo
Don’t frown on the poor while you can still see the floor
CHORUS
For freaks sake, you call that love?
Somebody wake me I‘ve had enough
For freak’s sake don’t bust a gut
Everything’s rosy
For freak’s sake shut up
Paving the day to go the way of the caveman
Me got more teeth than chew
With pockets so huge they could deluge into a meltdown
Either that or feed and format a world or two
CHORUS

ONLINE
I’m trapped in a wire
But that’s okay; my brother lives in a cable
And the lamb is floating in from God knows where
There’s fixin’s in the kitchen, but I don’t care
And if I could grip it, I’d be ripping out my hair
CHORUS
Online
I’ve surrendered my nights
Online
Anonymity bytes
No time
For a shower and shave
Online I’m a willing slave
It’ll never catch on
Said the mantis to the spider
Much too intelligent and over their heads
Well, tell that to Kelley as he works from his bed
Who knows
Maybe we can get these hungry people some bread
CHORUS
It’s hard to keep a natural pace
When you’re living with no time and no space
And now we’re running in the ultimate race
I’ve forgotten what lap I’m on…
(nerds: “he’s forgotten which lap-top he’s on_[LOL]_...)

LIVES
CHORUS
Extraordinary, ordinary lives
More than just a sign of the times
I see nothing but extraordinary, ordinary lives
Locked into your mediocrity
Life ain't what you thought it would be
On your knees with your philosophies
Well, act on your capacity
CHORUS
The bath ain't as hot as you'd thought it would be
The wine, not as cold as it was meant to be
Minimum service for a nominal fee
Put it away, this one's on me
CHORUS
Get a gander from my perspective
See you through another's eyes
Well commander, I'm no detective
But I'm picking up a few vibrations
An omnipresent dedication
One more round for the house on me...

ENOUGH
Reaching for the stars, they always seem so far away
Clouds roll in from afar
I guess they’ve always been there anyway
I see the fear in your eyes
But I’ve got a special surprise for you & me
CHORUS
There’s enough to go around
Or haven’t you found the source yet
You’ll laugh when I tell you where it’s been
From Africa to Andromeda & all points in between
And as what’s lost becomes found
There’s enough to go around
Cold can fold the night, searching for that inner flame
Something isn’t right, but what it is I just can’t say
Slipping into the past
I’m doing my best to make it last forever
CHORUS
Reach into your pocket or your purse
Contemplating what you might find
Do you hold a blessing or a curse
Why don’t you decide…
CHORUS
