Windout

Windout - if youre out of wind
Windout - if youre really spent
Windout - if youre young and red
Yeah, tick tock, its tine oclock
Once is good enough, you really go...
So find out - if youre really spent
Find out - if youre out of wind
Windout - if youre out of sin
Winding up
Theres no doubt - that youre feeling fine
No doubt - that youre out of mind
No doubt - that youre young and red
Windout - if youre really spent
Find out - if youre young and red
Windout - if youre out of wind
If youre young and red
Tick tock time to clock my band
Once is good enough, you really go...
Windout, find out, no doubt
Windout, find out, no doubt

Oddfellows Local 151

Oddfellows local 151 behind the firehouse
Where peewee sits to prove a sage to teach
Peewee gathered up his proof
Reached up and scratched his head
Fell down and hit the ground again
Firehouse. firehouse.
Why do the heathens rage behind the firehouse
Where peewee sits upon the wall to preach?
This boy and girl that gather pearls
Of wisdom falling from his mouth
Wash off the blood, wash off the rum
Firehouse. firehouse.
Oddfellows local 151 behind the firehouse
Where peewee sits upon the wall to preach.
This boy and girl that gather pearls
Of wisdom falling from his mouth
Wash off the blood, wash off the 151.
Firehouse. firehouse.
Firehouse. firehouse.

Wolves, Lower

Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, dont get caught.
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, let us out.
Wilder lower wolves. heres a house to put wolves out the door.
In a corner garden, wilder lower wolves.
House in order. house in order. house in order. house in order.
Down there theyre rounding a posse to ride.
(repeat verse)
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, dont get caught.
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, suspicion us all.
Wilder lower wolves. heres a house to put wolves out the door.
In a corner garden, wilder lower wolves.
House in order. house in order. house in order. house in order.
Down there theyre rounding a posse to ride.

(berry/buck/mills/stipe)
This world is big and so-awake
I stayed up late to hear your voice
This light is here to keep you warm
This song is here to keep you strong
I made a list of things to say
But all I really want to say
All I really want to say is
Hold her and keep him strong
While Im away from here
Hold her and keep her strong
While Im away from here
Hold her and keep him strong
While Im away from here
Ive seen the world and so-awake
And stay up late to hear me sing
Just hold her
Ive seen the world and so-awake
And stay up late to hear me sing
Just hold him

Draggin' The Line

Makin' a livin' the old hard way
Takin' and givin' by day by day
I dig snow and rain and the bright sunshine
Draggin' The Line
My dog Sam eats purple flowers
Ain't got much, but what we got's ours
We dig snow and rain and the bright sunshine
Draggin' The Line
(Draggin' The Line)
Draggin' The Line
(Draggin' The Line)
I feel fine, I'm talkin' 'bout peace of mind
I'm gonna take my time, I'm gettin' the good sign
Draggin' The Line
(Draggin' The Line)
Draggin' The Line
(Draggin' The Line)
Lovin' the free and feelin spirit of
hugging a tree
when you get near it.

Belong

Her world collapsed early sunday morning
She got up from the kitchen table
Folded the newspaper and silenced the radio
Those creatures jumped the barricades
And have headed for the sea, sea
Those creatures jumped the barricades
And have headed for the sea
She began to breathe
To breathe at the thought of such freedom
Stood and whispered to her child, belong
She held the child and whispered
With calm, calm; belong
Stood and whispered to her child, belong
She held the child and whispered
With calm, calm; belong
These barricades can only hold for so long
Her world collapsed early sunday morning
She took the child held tight
Opened the window
A breath, this song, how long

Tongue

Call my name, here I come.
90 to nothing, watch me run.
You call.
I am ashamed to say.
Ugly girls know their fate.
Anybody can get laid.
You want a room with a fire escape.
I want to tell you how much I hate this.
Dont leave that stuff all over me. it pains me.
Please just leave it.
I should toss that vanity license plate.
Toss that make-up painted face.
Box those poems, chocolate cake.
Scratch that name on the record player.
Please just leave me be.
Dont lay that stuff all over me.
It crawls all over. all over me.
Call my name, here I come.
Your last ditch lay, will I never learn?
Caramel turn on a dusty apology.

Stumble

Well stumble through the yard
Well stumble through the yard
Well stumble through the a-p-t
Well stumble through the yard
Force fields. explorer racing home, the ancient star.
Yellow mixed with golden hue.
Scan the graveyard, dead there be.
Ball and chain. ball and chain.
Ball and chain. ball and chain.
(repeat 1st verse 3 times)
It was round about midnight. hipster town.
Imagine going for a walk.
Things get around to taking place. its not a waste of time.
The rich got a little poorer.
Things get around to taking place. if theyre gonna happen at all.
Dont need that jazz. dont need that stuff.
It was round about midnight. hipster town.
It was round about midnight. hipster town.
(repeat 1st verse)

Hairshirt

I am not the type of dog
That could keep you waiting
For no good reason
Run a carbon-black test on my jaw
And you will find its all been said before
I can swing my megaphone and long arm the rest
Its easier and better
To just beat it from the chest
Of desire
I could walk into this room
And the waves of conversation are enough
To knock you down in the undertow
So alone so alone in my life
Feed me banks of light
And hang your hairshirt on the lowest rung
Its a beautiful life
And I can hang my hairshirt
Away up high in the attic of the wrong dogs life chest
Or bury it at sea
All my life Ive searched for this

Dangerous Time

These are dangerous times
Nothing to care or die for
These are dangerous times
What you want, someone will buy for you
Don't get away
It's so easy to wait
You've been wearing the green
I've been wearing the fall
And you said that all was just agreed
But, don't get away
I saw a guy out on the street
Said, I know what you need, BOY
I can set you fine
I didn't buy his line, because
These are dangerous times
I don't want to get old
You say that everything's fine
Then you leave me standing in the cold
All alone
But, don't get away
