Lyrics for WINTER DRINKER"
The leaves are shufflin under my shoes
The sky is hung with overturned mountains
Goin to the place to drink That I choose
Anchor my mind on winters cheep booze
Head is swimmin drunk in the sunlight
The sky is hung with boney fingers
Chimney smoke will fill the moonlight
Stayin for a while its best you sit tight
Fox tails of dust will rise upon us
The sky is hung with shapely beast heads
The rivers edge will color with rust
She being mean and shes being unjust
Glowing signs of armless cowgirls
The sky is hung with citys crown
Your true self will begin to unfurl
this swine has been cast a good pearl
"Lyrics for LUNG ROCKETS"
Stuble growin on my chin/Sloppy hair we look like wrecks
Drunken heads begin to spin/They could fall right off our necks
Men on bikes with bags of beer/Blood red n shining eyes
Under garbage chandeliers/Passin out n killin flies
At times my stories dont make sense/Eyes all filled with alcohol
Living lives of decadence/Nail my liver to the wall
Got myself a pickled finger/From stirring all these endless drinks
Got a buddy, rock n roll singer/We dont care what the outside thinks
Twenty pack of lung rockets/On and endless drinkin bender
Dollars scattered in my pocket/Slide another mister bartender
me n buddy bobby joe/Carry our souls in paper bags
Me n buddy whiskey moe/Under the bridge in our best damn rags
"lyrics for GREAT DIVIDE"
~Steve Barakat on drums~
Lookin at the stars all over town with my bottle close by-close by
Sittin on the dock and drinkin whiskey chewin the fat and cuttin the cards
But its time to go from town tonite and its time to go from you tonite
take a walk from a beaten trail-take a walk far from the city
You can go and do what ever you want and burn all your bridges-do who you want
try to understand face in the sand
bones bleach in the sun
our great devide
but its time to run from town tonite and its time to go from you tonite
take a walk far from nature trails take a walk far from the city
"Lyrics for RIAHM AND FAERIN"
Riahm gazed down from his mountain
which was his own
Beardown his eyes in all the ways he knew
looking for his heart which was in the hands of Faerin
by day and under earths shadow
he listened for her voice that he would seem to hear even in the sea
he sought for another chance
to prove his worthiness for he had failed her without measure
Though his failures where by the misjudgment of others
Faerin believed that it was only him forgetting
but not so for he was plagued with the love of her
and the weight of providing for her every thought for him
was of her drifting away into the arms of undestined future
She suddenly appeared behind him my blind fold she said
it has been lifted from me
"lyrics for JOHN THOMAS"
Once there was a star above a lovely one a lovely one who knew-nothing about the inside of a can of worms-kill or be killed said a smashing man in a resturaunt-get it while it lasts says the prominent john thomas-i think i see the light-says a girl in umrella'd rain
she knows-the same-she knows-as me-she thinks-the same-she knows-as me
"Lyrics for TERRIBLE LOU"
Guitar, Bass, Organ Vocals~Timothy Jason Wright
Distorted Guitar~Bryan Register
Drums/Enginerring~Steve Barakat
Privacy shattered by the man in the dark looking
through walls and clawing at the bark x=ray
vision of a lonely mind using the tools of a
sickly design didnt you know hes hiding outside
Terrible Lou hes got the gift four sets of eyes he
makes a trip
You in your bed youre now his debt youre on the slide
the film he bought
Quiet movement on the back of the roof pushing the button
getting all his proof his size doesnt matter silent as the wind
getting his pictures and you cant defent didnt you know youre
on his mind
All in the house on every shelf
Up on his walls youre in his life
"Lyrics for RISE INFINITY"
(Old cassett four track recording)
When the light in youreyes reflects the blinds to the left
I know theres something good outside if the haze shrouds the
sky I wont care if I have to fly to the moon alone but Id
rather you come along ride the breeze on my back talk some smack
in outer space the days are so long without your voice toss the
world behind and hold a thought of me to mind for one more moment
Jump from the north pole fall infinity look at the stars from
your window rise infinity
"Lyrics for RUN YOUR WORLD"
(Old cassett four track recording)
Give someone a chance again let shining stars take notice
of skys over people with all colored eyes that run your world
I know its gone away but who would take it back to be in times of labor
must get skinny while they get so fat
alright I dare you
"Lyrics for CAKES AND ALE"
(Old cassett four track recording)
And for naught would I muster my strength that day in the old hose where
I fancied you to stay cakes and ale forever now that you have gone off
with half of this addled man the best I can do is raise my drink in hand
cakes and ale forever
