Shop 'Til You Drop 03:54
lyrics
download
The world is going to hell in a hand basket The end is getting closer all the time Nothing but bad news every night on the TV I need a way to escape this reality What can I do? You got a shop `til you drop There’s a rainbow of savings in every store You got to shop `til you drop There values are too big to ignore Shop `til you drop, Want buy have Shop `til you drop, Want buy have It’s the American way I love my credit cards like a ball and chain Cell phone radiation rots away my brain I got a microwave, computer, and a brand new car These clothes I wear Make me feel like a superstar You got to shop `til you drop We’ll put you in the driver’s seat You got to shop `til you drop Our low, low prices just can’t be beat Shop `til you drop, Want buy have Shop `til you drop, Want buy have It’s the American way I’m gonna ride off into the sunset in my SUV To the manufactured land of opportunity To my paradise, in suburban sprawl Near the outlet stores and the super mall The super mall You got to shop `til you drop Why wait when you can own it today? You got to shop `til you drop These lonely feelings just won’t go away Shop `til you drop, Want buy have Shop `til you drop, Want buy have It’s the American way

Killing Time on Broadway 04:18
lyrics
download
There’s a place in my neighborhood Where I like to go People watching, every shape and size See the masses pose Down and out in the gutter Designer label clothes Tattooed philosophers I seen them come and seen them go See it all everyday Killing time on Broadway Hey man, hey man Can you spare a little change? I’ve been down on my luck I’ve been to hell and back again Looking for a buck or two Get me on my way Looking for a kind soul Help me out today Life’s so hard, they all say Killing time on Broadway All the beautiful people Come on out to play They frolic in the sunshine They got nothing to say Walking past the restaurants Checking out the view You can smell the loneliness in the air You can taste it in the dew Waiting for the rain Wash away the pain Wash away the emptiness And bring it back again We lost some souls along the way Killing time on Broadway

Got to Be Some Kind of Way Out of Here 04:38
lyrics
download
Late at night I’m on my way home Every house A Light in the window The locks are latched and the shades are drawn Behind closed doors Something is wrong Behind closed doors Their lives goes on and on and on And I know there’s got to be some kind of way out of here There’s got to be, got to be, got to be, some kind of way out of here Just not for me Midnight I hear the wind blow I get up I look out the window I look as far as mind can see But all that’s out there are the mountains that surround me The valley that chains me It just won’t let me be free And I know there’s got to be some kind of way out of here There’s got to be, got to be, got to be, some kind of way out of here Just not for me

Eugene 02:56
lyrics

I'm going down to Eugene I'm going back down to Eugene This city life has been messing with me So I'm heading back to Eugene I'm packing my bags and splitting the scene I'm gonna hop on that Interstate Highway and go back to Eugene I'm going where the sky is blue and the ducks are green Get my old tye-dies and my ripped blue jeans I'm gonna hang with some hippies and make the scene I'm going down. Down to Eugene I'm going down to Eugene Going back down to Eugene Going back down, back down back down, Down to Eugene Here I come baby Here I come

Sing to the Ages 05:39
lyrics

I'm a face in the crowd I'm sure you don't know I was here for a while But I had to let go I made some mistakes and I have my regrets But it's too late for me now Time rolls on, soon forgets So I sing to the ages, I sing to the ages Cause I want you to know, I want you to know I was here... For a little while I had a good woman She needed more than I gave But she always stood by me With devotion and grace I loved my family my flaws they endured and my conscience it haunts me Still I did the best I could So I sing to the ages, I sing to the ages Cause I want you to know, I want you to know I was here... For a little while I'm a voice from the past reaching out to you and I hope that you hear me and know that I'm true Follow your heart and never forget To savor the moments and love that you getf So I sing to the ages, I sing to the ages Cause I want you to know, I want you to know We're all here... For a little while I was here, for a little while

Politics 101 03:22
lyrics
download
Everybody can be bought I wish I was wrong, but I'm not And everybody is for sale They'll disappoint you without fail And greed will win out in the end there's nothing you can do about it, my friend So make the best of what you got 'cause everybody can be bought It might just be my perception Maybe it's all in my mind For every rule there are exceptions No matter how hard I search, I still find.... It took some time to figure out The evidence leaves little doubt And to the core it does rot Everybody can be bought I might sound cynical but I'm not Everybody Can be bought Everybody can be bought I wish I was wrong, but I'm not...

I Can Take You There 06:15
lyrics
download
I know you had it rough I know you had it hard You deserve so much better woman You deserve so much more I can take you there Where you want to go We’ll close the blinds on the outside world I can take you there Sometimes you need a shoulder to lean on Sometimes you need some slow hand I know you’re a sensitive woman You need someone who understands I can take you there Make you feel so good I’ll be your knight in egg shell armor I can take you there. I know what you want I know just what you need You don’t have to feel so lonely You can come with me I can take you there Where you want to be You don't have to say you love me I can take you there
