Oh Yeah

What a funny feeling to wake up in the morning
When someone started sailing, sailing for the mainland
On a sunny day
Coast is clear
Never thought I’d feel you so near
Peeling back a quarter
Pulling all the rind off
Right down to the center
Sweet as any nectar
Savor every piece
That I could
Never knew strange fruit
Could taste so good
Barely had a moment
Feeling for the time now
Everything is slowed down
Everything is fine now
On a sunny day
Waters clear
California sky
Love is near
Oh yeah

Pretty Soldiers

Fly away pretty soldiers
We’re gonna have some fun without you
Drive away pretty soldiers
We’re gonna get things done without you
Cause you’re always on our backs
Talkin’ about attacks
And we just want to relax
And have us a good time
Night and Day dirty boulders
No one toils away like you do
Comin’ back it’ll be colder
Nothing much to miss
Cause you always did believe
That we just wanted to be
Knee deep in the good life
And you just want to live one day though
Dads carried you on their shoulders
Memories are such bliss
Now worry has left him older
Remembering the last kiss
And he’ll never feel relief
Til’ you’re between cotton sheets
And you always did believe
Now you just want to live one day through
Just want to float
Alone on stream
Alone in my head
Just want to be free
Just want to be with you
Just want to live one day through

I'm the Teacher
03:43

Are there any volunteers
I don’t see any volunteers
I’m gonna have to call on someone
Who hasn’t raised their hand
I’m the teacher
I’m the teacher
Giving you my everything
Giving you my all
Don’t blame the teacher
You might need her
Giving you her everything
Giving you her all
I’m the teacher
Yes I’m the teacher
Giving you my everything
Giving you my all
Don’t blame the teacher
You might need her
Giving you her everything
Catch you when you fall
There’s a matter of importance
A disturbance out there in the hall
It won’t help to look down
Or fidget with your pencil
It won’t work to look away
I know all the tricks
I’m the teacher….

Little Duck

Silent night
Say goodnight
One more time
For the last time
Little duck
Wish you luck
May you have pluck
All the time
You’ll be pretty when you’re all grown up
You’ll be pretty but you're acting tough
When I want to hold your hand
But you’re all grown up
Then you’ll walk
Then you’ll talk
Blackboard and chalk
For the first time
It’s a pity but we all grow up
It’s a pity but you have to be tough
I hope you’ll understand
When you’re old enough

Only Apart
04:43

You put your feet up on chairs
Where are you now
I always knew you were there
Where are you now
You always had my attention
Where is it now
Keeping me in suspension
Where are you now
Never near or far
Only where you are
Never near or far
Only apart
I search for you in the a.m.
The p.m. too
I thought you would always be staying
Now I look for you
The little things so annoying
Like the aforementioned shoes
On the chair you’re destroying
I call a truce
I love the way your shirt was open
and you stared into the sky
and tossed your head back and the hair out of
your eyes
I keep forgetting to remember
that I never should forget
Another day another night I might regret

Karen

She’s new in town
Got a pretty face
She’s new in town
Got her own nice place
Walking around
Thinking she’s so grand
Making friends
It’s more than I can stand
I’d like to introduce myself to Karen
Then I can explain why I’ve been starin’
Just let me introduce myself to Karen
Cuz that’s my husband's sweater she’s wearin’
They say don’t judge a book by its cover
But what if the book took away your love
Her hair is straight
Must take a lot of work
For all the nights
She’s spending with that jerk
I’d like to introduce myself to Karen
Then I can explain why I’ve been starin’
Just let me introduce myself to Karen
Cuz that’s my husband's sweater she’s wearin’
They say that life is full of wonderful surprises.
Well here's one for you
Here's one for you ... Karen

Why We All Believe
03:37
|

Hear me I only need a moment of your time
There’s less to hate and more to love
They hold you close when your heart breaks
Forgive when you need grace
Live every moment for your face
And that is why we all believe
in you
Warm words heard from near or far
Always there wherever you are
A smile never deceiving
Touch only relieving
Listen to your breathing
And that is why we all believe
in you

Paparazzi
03:41
|

Why did the paparazzi have to ruin my life?
I’ve had enough of all this signature signing
I wish the cameras weren’t allowed where I’m dining
I wanted to remain anonymous
While I dine with my D&G skirt on
Why did the paparazzi have to ruin my life
When you’ve got celebrity status
Celebrity status has you
I didn’t ask for celebrity status
Now what am I supposed to do
I hope the lord above can see how I paid the price
When you were learning how to play
How I played my part
You had a broken toy
Well I had a broken heart
I wanted to remain anonymous
While I flirt with my D&G skirt on
I hope the lord above can see how I paid the price

College Girl

Look everybody it's me
Look at the way I pour my syrup
Finish up the morning meal
Got my backpack on
I’m going to Europe
Look everybody its me
Grab the reigns
Foot in the stirrup
Riding into the sun
Got my backpack on
I’m going to Europe
Thinks its time I went on an adventure
Think its time I flew the coop
Momma and Papa I’ll see you in a could of months
When I need the money
Bring back my new honey
Tired of the way they divide you up
Tired of the way you get used to rejection
Don’t want to follow all the sheep
Cuz you’re gonna need more than wool for protection
Thinks its time I went on an adventure
Think its time I flew the coop
Momma and Papa I’ll see you in a could of months
When I need the money
Bring back my new honey
Cuz its cold outside
And I don’t want to have to put my coat on
Its cold outside
And I’d rather die than do as I am told
La la la
Well what happened after I left
What happened after I went to Europe?
Call it money well spent
Cuz you got to hit bottom and pull
Yourself clear up
Thinks its time I came home from my adventure
Need a little time to regroup
Momma and Papa I’ll see you as soon as I can
Isn’t it funny
I missed you more than money
Cuz it’s cold outside
With no one around to tell you to put your coat on
Yeah it’s cold outside
And I want to live until I’m really old
La la la
I’m just a college girl to you

Eye Level

Baby won’t you come down to my eye level
Maybe you would come round
And I’ll put on the kettle
Don’t think twice
Never let me go
Baby I’m not gonna be some kind of devil
Baby won’t you come down to my eye level
Don’t think twice
Never let you go
