Voyage 04:47
I am a world-weary traveler Lost on a voyage out at sea Good thing I am a recent bachelor On this my ex and I agree I look at your black and white photograph And I like what I see A good chance that I won’t be coming back The mermaids are all that’s left for me I am lost on a voyage at sea Won’t someone come and rescue me? My head is empty and I don’t seem to care And the fish tell me I’m too thin Naked and alone is almost too much to bear Looks like it’s time I learn to swim

The secrets we keep Exposing what’s underneath Do you have something to hide? Or is it your foolish pride? Under lock and key Protected by any means Do you have something to hide? Or is it misplaced pride? If they only knew What would the world come to?

You’re unemotional You think you have it all worked out You think you have the world In the palm of you hand You don’t, don’t you understand? Do you sense the reaction? Of all talk and no action You think you have it all In the palm of you hand You don’t, don’t you understand? The bottom it drops out All talk and no action

No Blues 05:16
Everybody wants to make a living With their opinion Everybody wants to believe in A chance to believe in something true Everybody wants to be forgiven When they're misbehaving Everybody wants to be taken To a safe haven with no blues She had always filled a hunger To feel younger She had always dreamed of the big lights And black lace thigh-highs For her guy: no blues He had a genuine love for the old folks And rusty, old bike spokes He knew the difference between am and fm In giving and taking with no blues They had a desire to start a new life Find a yard to fly their kites The kids growing up in the local school district Their social life public With no blues

You escape what you fear If you to hold on to what’s dear And when you breathe your last breath And you come out on the other side No more bullshit You got your big break, man No more It’s only natural It’s time for your last call There’s no use in praying No one is here to save you And your memory lives on As you roam the great beyond Where the band always plays your favorite song You get to check your sins At the door coming in And whatever hand you’re dealt you always win No more bullshit You got your big break, man No more It’s only natural It’s time for your last call Whatever you want to be In your wildest fantasies A king a queen a joker or a thief And there’s no reality And there’s no more grief And you always get the answers that you seek No more bullshit You got your big break, man No more It’s only natural It’s time for your last call

Party rat in a sanitary trap I’m not quite sure how they're gonna feel about that Ain’t got no patience Ain’t got no relief Ain’t got no money They ain’t got no beliefs Party rats They can’t win for losing Party rats They gotta keep moving Give it some time and I’ll be front page news I’ll tell you what, I’ve got nothing to more to lose I might be too much for you to explain My own persistence ends in mortal remains Party rats They can’t win for losing Party rats They gotta keep moving Where have all my good times gone?
