sometimes you stray it’s what you’ve got today
sometimes you’re lost it’s not for you
what was spoken it was never meant for you
sometimes you get what you require
and all that you want is a better reason
you want to understand our nature
it’s in our nature not to know
if it’s expanding what is on the other side
and you’re convinced the sky is blue
and all that you want is a better reason
you make me choose it forces one of us to lose
(what’s on the other side)
the way to win is not to play
(you need a reason)
you’re looking deep into the cracks that we have made
(what’s on the other side)
we’ll patch it up as good as new
and all that you want is a better
all that you want is a better way
set your sights and turn the ship into the sun
this trip will take you closer to the edge this time
you think they’ve shown you everything
you dig a little more
now you know you’ve got to peel away
what’s on the other side
this minute’s over you can never have it back
toss back the things you thought you knew
it goes to show how easily we are impressed
with all the things we fail to comprehend

land of the free
come on honey grab the kids and pack your bags
we’re going on a journey far away
we’ll invade a foreign land
and slay the residents
a declaration they’re decorations
land of the free
you say you want to flee the tyranny that surrounds you
who could blame you
there’s a better place you’ll see
i’ll raise the sail
we’ll cross the sea
once we kill the squaws and braves
you’ll have twenty seven slaves in the
land of the free
come along with me
land of the free my brother
we’ll develop this great nation of ours
and be the focus of the world
we could lend a hand to you and to your little land
we’ll send men to teach and some to preach
all to extend the reach of the land of the free
come along with me
land of the free my brother
and when you fly your flag you show the stains as well
do you know your history?
and if someone’s moved in on your soil
i mean the land that gives us oil
hey man we know how to kill
when it helps us take our fill
just give me your tired
your poor huddled masses
yearning to breathe in the land of the free
come along with me
land of the free my brother
it’s just a lack of thought
lack of reason

i’m not gonna lose again
not to the likes of you
how can i make it plain
i’m not beating around the shrubbery
im not gonna change my name
not gonna move away
gonna stand nose to nose
no i won’t back down anymore
i took it from you too long
now it’s built up way down inside
it’s coming around again
and i’m gonna knock you down
i’ll meet you behind the swings
you better bring some friends
cause when i’m through with you
they’ll have to carry you away
so what have we got to show
what did we solve today
there’s one thing i know for sure
she still likes me more than you

ride
jenny went to paris in the summer of love
feeling all of eighteen maybe just a little more
must have been a hard time giving up the one thing
slip into the saddle for the next wave you can ride
jenny hit the city for the glitter and the speedway
that’s okay honey cause daddy aint your landlord
remember where the seed grows you know where you left it
climb back up on the seesaw you can ride
ride with me ride
and you’ve been just a little shy
won’t you live a little
stepping off the side
slide into the middle
you can ride
jenny such a pity that it had to be this way
i wonder what you think on a particular day
if you take it back to square one i wouldn’t change anything
better in the long run i forgive you
ride
ride with me ride
i’m coming to show you
you can ride
and you’ve been just a little shy
won’t you live a little
stepping off the side
slide
i say tag that means you’re it
i don’t wanna put you wanna put you
on the spot
there’s a thing i know you’ve been missing
you’re gonna let the tears
trickle down down down

she got some second hand brushes
mixes and matches her oils
she speaks the language of color boy
so much that you’ll never know
she uses sheets for her canvas
her strokes are sweet and they’re slow
she never lets a single drop hit the floor
they say that genius is so
she doesn’t want the praise of you people
she doesn’t need pay cause it comes from the soul
she doesn’t care bout the judgment of others
making the art is making her whole
she keeps her work in the closet
at least a hundred or so
she never shows them to nobody
don’t let it get you too low
she doesn’t want the praise of you people
she doesn’t need pay cause it comes from the soul
she doesn’t care bout the judgment of others
making the art is making her whole
i guess it could make you wonder
how i could know this to be
you’ve never seen all of her masterpieces
but she showed them to me
she doesn’t want the praise of you people
she doesn’t need pay cause it comes from the soul
she doesn’t care bout the judgment of others
making the art is making her whole
she’s a painter
it’s a good thing
she’s a painter
