Hey Kids 02:51
Hey kids, come quick We find a lot of things out this way Lead them out of the black and into the thick Believe me when I say Hey kids, hey kids Come quick, come quick Hey kids, come quick Come quick Come quick With your time Open eyes Put the lie to There’s only one way out Hey kids, come quick We find the best things out this way Restlessness is your greatest gift Just not the kind you give away Hey kids, hey kids Come quick, come quick Come quick Come quick With your time Open eyes Put the lie to There’s only one way out No promisers or promissory Are worth the water or cash they carry You steal the silence With your sideways statements And you rip the fabric With your fabrications No promisers or promissory Are worth the water or cash they carry You steal the silence With your sideways statements And you rip the fabric With your fabrications Hey kids, come quick We find a lot of things out this way

You’ll find everything you need on the counter You’ll find this place pretty welcoming if you’re not around a lot We’ll see how brave you are when you leave here They’ll see through your Midwestern charm and your malaprops This isn’t the day, the time or place This isn’t the day, the time or place You know I love you like a brother But this was the best I could do, it’s not like we talk a lot We try to honest with one another But I find being honest with you means lying to myself a lot This isn’t the day, the time or place This isn’t the day, the time or place Rolling thunder, rolling thunder This isn’t the time, the day or place This isn’t the time, the day or place

Hearts 02:53
That’s the shape Of a heart It’s hard to tell Where it stops And it starts It’s just a couple valves And some ventricles Much more asymmetrical Than I was lead to believe You could have fooled me But that’s the shape Of a heart It’s hard to tell Where it stops And it starts I can tell you this much It’s not something I’d touch If my life depended on it You say it does And I believe If only because You have such A big heart It’s just a couple valves And some ventricles Much more asymmetrical Than I was lead to believe Believe Believe Believe Just who you gonna believe Believe

Slope 02:27
A man falls in love with his toaster He couldn't resist that little bread smoker We never thought it could ever come to this Until he slipped down that slope What bliss? The man and the toaster got married Opinions for and against were varied We never thought that we'd ever exceed the bounds Were it not for that slope...slippin' us down.

Rarely did I understand the wise words of my old man On his way from the first to the fifteenth They were short, but hardly sweet My folks were married by the church door Maybe that's way they aren't married any more My father's off with the merchant marine My mother back with codfish aristocracy Life isn't all beer and skittles You're never further than when you're in the middle Life is short and very brittle But it's a sail life for me Life isn't all beer and skittles You're never further than when you're in the middle Life is short and very brittle But it's a sail life for me You don't have to be a saint to be a savior I've got more scotch in me than Francis Xavier You don't have to be a saint to be a savior I've got more scotch in me than Francis Xavier

Breathe 04:44
Breathe That'll put you in your place Somewhere you hope isn't the end And now you see You little life for what it is A long day at work They caught you wising it would end Breath

Mothers and daughters An old song with a new name It’s the kind with a message And a happy refrain A response to an imperative Only lightened by necessity If you’ve forgotten how to live It only takes a second to see So if you’re trying to make a start At being kind and pure of heart You’d do much worse than Mothers and daughters An old song with a new name It’s the kind with a message And a happy refrain An old song with a new name A new song with an old name

From the bar to the brothel From the grotto to the grave Are the ghosts that hold this valley down To its simpler days But being on the side of the saints ain’t gonna pay the rent And our sinners ain’t gonna be saved As sure as that black damp is gonna make this mine your grave When king coal came to Ohio He brought shanty towns and sunless days In return we gave this nation light And a revolution soon began Then on our backs the Allies won the Great War While at home our prospects did fade Denied the right to organize And killed if we dared Around this time we heard a calling And with it clarity came If our revolt amounts to nothing We’ll be nothing just the same Never met myself a bourgeois But ain’t nothing that would change The children of the vanguard will dance on your graves In Ohio . . .

Beyond on the signal Around the bend It seems like a lifetime Do you remember when? The winds will blow And the reeds will bend Beyond on the signal Around the bend
