January the Sixth
03:38
|

|
The skies were gun metal grey in Washington DC
The Stars and Bars and Trump banners were waving in the breeze
The President was priming the pump, he told his Maga cult
March down Pennsylvania Avenue and overturn the election result
Now they’re carrying hangman’s nooses,
Clubs and pipes and sticks
This ain’t no Fourth of July parade
This is January the Sixth
Oath Keepers and Boogaloo, Proud Boys and Nazis too
They’re marching in stacks up the Capital Steps and now they’re breaking through
The cops are outnumbered fifty to one, no chance to hold them back
Somebody call out the National Guard the Capital’s under attack
And they’re carrying hangman’s nooses
And they’re looking for Mike Pence
They’re surging through the hallways
It’s a matter of life or death
The Guard arrived, the coup had failed, now somebody has to pay
So the soldiers are marched off to jail while the ringleaders get away
There must be somebody smarter than me who can tell me what I missed
Why is Trump still on the loose today after January the 6th
There must be somebody wiser than me who can tell me what I missed
Why is Trump still on the loose today after January the 6th

Radio Days

A whisper of truth will get you in trouble
If it reaches the wrong ears.
Rumors are spreading, the talk on the street
is the End Times are already here
You shouldn’t be surprised when false prophets arise
Telling us all the signs are clear
The Big Lie wears the crown these days
And carries a gun, I hear

Without Your Love

Don't wonder if I love you, baby
You know that you're always on my mind
Don't worry i won't hurt you, baby
You know that I'd never be unkind
Without your love I'm nothing at all
Without your love I'm nothing at all
Without your love I'm nothing at all
Without your love I'm nothing at all
On nights like this when I need your kiss
I can almost feel you touching me
The scent of you fills this lonely room
Then I wake and I find that it's just a dream
Without your love I'm nothing at all
Without your love I'm nothing at all
Without your love I'm nothing at all
Without your love I'm nothing at all
On nights like this when I need your kiss
I can almost feel you touching me
The scent of you fills this lonely room
Then I wake and I find that it's just a dream

Too Much Information

Too Much Information
There’s too much information
Living in a digital age
If my baby’s not posting on Twitter
She’s checking her Facebook page
There’s too much information
She’s on Instagram all the time
There’s too much information
I need a place to hide
I used to tool around town in a red corvette
You could always find me in it
Now I’m answering Instant Messages
Seems like every other minute
There’s too much information
I’m seeing ads in my sleep
So think before you click that link
Better look before you leap
There’s too much information
And it’s coming from all sides
There’s too much information
And there ain’t no place to hide
I used to tool around town in a red corvette
You could always find me in it
Now I’m answering Instant Messages
Seems like every other minute
There’s too much information
Why just the other night
I was texting some chick and almost got hit
When a pickup ran a red light
There’s too much information
It’s blowing like a hurricane
It’s pouring on me like a waterfall
It’s going right down the drain

I feel myself slipping
A little more every day
I know I should listen
To what my heart has to say
It says what are you waiting for
You know just what to do
So go ahead and tell her
What have you got to lose?
You’re the most beautiful
Woman I’ve ever seen
(2x)
If I could write like Shakespeare
I’d put it down in rhyme
All these feelings I have for you
And maybe make you mine
Or if I could paint a picture
Like Michelangelo
I’d paint you a masterpiece
Just to let you know
You’re the most beautiful
Woman I’ve ever seen
(2x)

Plumb Loco
02:27
|
|||
|
They’re blowing up the Internet this morning
They’re spreading lies and wild conspiracies
They say that Dr. Fauci is an alien
They say he’s from another galaxy
But I say all of them are plumb loco
What’s wrong with them is no great mystery
Somewhere in the game they lost their marbles
So lock em up and throw away the key
They claim that there’s a vaccine in the tracking chip
On the cell phone that you bought from the Chinese
And every time you click a link on Instagram
An aerosol vaccine gets released
But I say all of them are plumb loco
What’s wrong with them is no great mystery
Somewhere in the game they lost their marbles
So lock em up and throw away the key
They say that Satan worshipping pedophiles
Conspiring against the human race
Have taken baby Jesus out of Christmas
And put Jewish laser beams in Outer Space
But I say all of them are plumb loco
What’s wrong with them is no great mystery
Somewhere in the game they lost their marbles
So lock em up and throw away the key

Love, Love, Love

I’d love, love to see you
Love, love, love to meet you
Love, love, love to love you
With the stars twinkling high above you
So won’t you say, yes you’ll see me
And yes, yes, yes you’ll meet me
And yes, yes, yes you’ll love me
With the stars twinkling high above you
I’d love, love to see you
Love, love, love to meet you
Love, love, love to love you
With the stars twinkling high above you

Your Truth

Your Truth
The circumstances you found yourself in
Left you in a place you never had been
Now you’re all alone caught in a trap
Trying to escape without a map
All alone with just your truth
Was it your pain or your vanity
That made you rearrange reality
That left you with only a fantasy
That you picked up thumbing through a magazine
All alone with just your truth
You can’t turn blood into water
Or silver into gold
And Truth isn’t yours to own
Or haven’t you been told
You can fool yourself, you can make believe
But you can’t rearrange reality
So don’t believe everything you hear
You better take another look in the mirror
All alone with just your Truth

All I Ever Wanted
03:09
|
|||
|
You know it's more than just my foolish pride
That makes me hurt so bad inside
And sometimes I do things I shouldn't do
But all I ever wanted was you
I guess lately I've been acting insecure
How I wish there was a way I could be sure
So sometimes I do things I shouldn't do
But all I ever wanted was you
All I ever wanted was you
To love me half as much as I loved you
You know it's more than just my foolish pride
That makes me hurt so bad inside
And sometimes I do things I shouldn't do
But all I ever wanted was you

Eyes On The Prize

It’s a long ways to Memphis
So hitch up your pants
It’s bound to get better
If you give it a chance
So don’t give up keep your eyes on the prize
I knew a man
He run a hundred miles
In 24 hours
I don’t know how
But he didn’t give up he kept his eyes on the prize
It could be just a matter of days
It could be just over the hill
Maybe you’ll find it in a minute or two
But if you don’t keep looking you never will
I’ve been on the bottom
And one thing I’m sure
The view is much better
On the 14th floor
So don’t give up keep your eyes on the prize
It could be just a matter of days
It could be just over the hill
Maybe you’ll find it in a minute or two
But if you don’t keep looking you never will
It’s a long ways to Memphis
So hitch up your pants
It’s bound to get better
If you give it a chance
So don’t give up keep your eyes on the prize

Five Weeks

Maggie lived in a house down by the sea
Where she'd walk along the beach and think of me
At least that's what her letters used to say
You see I haven't heard from Maggie in five weeks
I was just 18 a year ago
When I loved and lived with Maggie on the coast
Til the Army called and took me from our home
And I remember how she cried to see me go
I've seen the shattered faces around me
Of the men who look like me
Waiting for a letter
Then dying as they read
Maggie, Maggie, Maggie
Now I'm sure that he's handsome and more fun than me
Cause how much fun is a soldier across the sea
Still it breaks my heart to think of what used to be
And I haven't heard from Maggie in five weeks

The Blessing

Blessed are the poor in spirit
And all of those who mourn
Blessed are the innocent
And every baby born
Blessed are the widows
Grieving all alone
Their sorrow shall be lifted
And they shall be consoled
Blessed are the merciful
And those without a friend
There’s a place in Heaven
For every one of them
Blessed are the meek
And the tired seeking rest
And all of those who hunger
And thirst for righteousness
Blessed are the innocent
And the wrongfully blamed
Blessed are the pure in heart
Who died In Jesus name
Blessed are the merciful
To those who need a friend
There’s a place in Heaven
For every one of th

Your Lovin' Was Good

Your lovin’ was good
So good I hoped it would last
Longer the the last good lovin’ I had
If tonight should be the first
And the last night that we have
You lovin’ me so good it’s leaving me sad
So many times, so many tries
And everybody said goodbye
Am I wrong to keep longing
For more than just one night
There’s something so sad
In lovin’ this way
Remembering faces and forgetting the names
Never holding on too long
To any love I had
Your lovin’ me so good it’s leavin’ me sad
