Dog in a Man Suit

Life's been ruff so I'm out on the street
bumming a treat or two
I'm my owner which makes me a loner
its a long walk but what can i do
I'm a dog (a dog in a man suit)
I'm a dog (a dog in a man suit)
I am a dog (a dog in a man suit)
and this is my cat
When it all gets down to brass tacts
I think I'm just chasing my tail
a aspire to be a good boy
but all I do is fail

I've lifted every cloud in my view
and yet the tv talks of rain
under sunny skys I stroll beside you
soaked by denial once again
You run the circuit around my head
Little footsteps tapping in my brain
Morse code in the wake that you left
tells me its time to make a change
He talked to the mirror
to get rid of his fears
but the man in the mirror wouldnt show

Take it Easy, Elizabeth

Take it easy Elizabeth
There's no need to fret
when you wake the sun'll
shine shine shine
You'll be here again
Back on solid land
Not stuck between the
lines lines
Red Eddie been creeping in the corner of my eye
He shows the vertigo makes standing on your feet feel high
High high high
Take it easy Elizabeth
stop this talk of death
today there's no
time time time
We can run around
unbound to solid ground
leave the world behind

Everyday's a New Day
02:04

Bellicose comatose
an angry body who sleeping with a ghost
Lifeline Flatlines
A bug told me that its no fun to be divine
Everyday's a new day
everyday's a new day
So love it in a new way
come squeeze my mind
Betty run silent son
yelling at the mirror he don't want to be the one
noose made of fine lace
A thing to be seen but it won't support her weight
Violent rage patient sage
Pick and choose pieces but ignore most of the page
Quite right, bright light
hiding in the eyes of the hidden and the blind

Don't Fret For Me
01:55

Don't seem hungry but I'm famished
Don't seem focused but I try
I know my summers ending
by the way all the days fly
I act naive and I may be
but don't fret for me
Kathy, don't fret for me
As a musician I'm a martyr
but I promise I can work
as an writer as an ad man
even as a file clerk
I know you will
but still
When evening comes
wherever my monies earned
I will grab my guitar
and write from what i've learned

Goodbye Maria
02:47
|
|

Under flickering city lights
I search alley's for a place to hide
Now that i'm ousted from my home
My family is gone and I'm my own
What've you done
You killed my son
Were really such a fright
We kept out mind and out of sight
I'd never thought you would attack
my humble home but now I ask
Maria, Maria
Why did you do this to me?

Timeless

They say she's timeless
But now that's got to change
Ain't nothing stay the same
No, all we do is change
Timeless burning lifeline ticking
money spending tower tipping
lifting up the mourning widow
crossing swords in quasi limbo
Illumination luminary
lock the doors to the library
nothing there to read
Melancholy dusty bones
Don't the silence feel like home
She finds it funny bullet gunny
No clouds out now its all so sunny
Where did all the air just go
Am I in space or just alone
staring at the walls
Whats the matter shoots and ladders
Laughing monsters idle chatter
tricks and problems orcs and goblins
Fanstasy of my mind rotten
Meet me there meet me there
beside the side beyond the stair
walking further down
