Runaway 02:20
Waiting tables for money, honey I bring a drink to you I look around and the world seems funny I know you see it too I spill your drink I make you think Look around and what do they say Life is a joke Everyone's broke Come on, baby Do the runaway Burning all the money, honey Wasting all the time I look around and everyone's running The world is yours and mine I kiss your shoulder Stop from getting older Ain't no more people, can't hear what they say Everyone's dead Drunk in the head Come on, baby Do the runaway

Double Wide 02:06
Life in the low But I sing from my soul In my double wide Touch your androgyny Feel my monotony In my double wide Cooking for love Making love on the rug In my double wide Carpet stains Lazy-E-Boy back pains In my double wide Broken t.v. Now you gotta watch me In my double wide Cat fish fry 'Til the day I die In my double wide In my double wide

Sometimes in the mornin' When I can feel you breathin' I lay there for a minute I wonder what you see In your dreams There are bad men And people who would kill But I put my arm around you I'm here with you still Baby, wake up The nightmare is through Baby, wake up I'm lying right beside you Baby, wake up The nightmare is done Baby, wake up Let's have some morning fun... When your eyes finally open I greet you with a kiss Good morning, I love you Ain't no place better than this In your dreams You were cryin' But you've had your fill I put my arms around you I'm here with you still Baby, wake up The nightmare is through Baby, wake up I'm lying right beside you Baby, wake up The nightmare is done Baby, wake up Let's have some morning fun... Baby, wake up The nightmare is through Baby, wake up I'm lying right beside you Baby, wake up The nightmare is done Baby, wake up Let's have some morning fun...

Shadowbus 03:12
Greyhound won't do In times like these Praying for a ride I fall on my knees It's two a.m. I can't get home I walk to the place Where the shadowbus roams Don't need a ticket Ain't no fuss Don't need a suitcase Shadowbus Don't matter where you're going Hop on with us But don't ride too far On the shadowbus I'm looking out the window Waiting for a sign Empty plastic seat For that girl of mine I left in a hurry Said, "Babe, I gotta go" She asked when I would be back home I said, "Baby, I don't know" Don't need a ticket Ain't no fuss Don't need a suitcase Shadowbus Don't matter where you're going Hop on with us But don't ride too far On the shadowbus Don't need a ticket Ain't no fuss Don't need a suitcase Shadowbus Don't matter where you're going Hop on with us But don't ride too far On the shadowbus

Out of the dog's head And into the creek Grab my shirt collar And hit me if If I speak I'll take you to the river Swim and then sweat Tell me you'll be there At that house In my head Dive in the Cannon Swim in my head Dive in the Cannon Until I'm dead Let's give each other bruises Cigarette burns I won't refuse it If you make Love hurt The party is over The house guests are gone We were in my head Swimmin' All along Dive in the Cannon Swim in my head Dive in the Cannon Until I'm dead Dive in the Cannon Swim in my head Dive in the Cannon Until I'm dead

Pop Sounds 03:10
My radio picks up From over the ocean I hear a little girl Singing that song Toes begin to tap In a twisting rhythm I don't know the language but I Sing along Pop sounds In my head Pop sounds so Bright red Pop sounds Shooting pool Pop sound so French cool That little girl is older now And that time is past I feel the organ swell And I wish I could go back So I turn the stereo up To hear the trumpets moan Little girl in the Sunday shoes gonna Take me home Pop sounds In my head Pop sounds so Bright red Pop sounds Shooting pool Pop sound so French cool I don't know the language Pop sounds In my head Pop sounds so Bright red Pop sounds Shooting pool Pop sound so French cool

Two bars City hall You come To get it all Livin' In piss When you're drunk is the Only time you wanna kiss My head is amiss My head's in a dish My head is amiss Give my brain a kiss Two bars And a mill You come To get your fill Leaving town On a rail Devil gone now I own Hell My head is amiss My head's in a dish My head is amiss Give my brain a kiss Two bars City hall You come To get it all Livin' In piss When you're drunk is the Only time you wanna kiss me My head is amiss My head's in a dish My head is amiss Give my brain a kiss
