Tried for days all the ways And now I'm feeling no pain Out the door down the track Roll it up and that's that Well I'm afraid to come down Now I really got a view of this time Well I'm amazed can't sleep for days And I know that you've got something to say Because You can get it done In your mother tongue Climb a wall on the roof And watching the sunrise I'm curious mysterious Can you see what's in the cards for us? Whimsical cereals Are the first thing in the morning I eat Then you burn some sage Bless the place You know it's written all over your face You can get it done In your mother tongue

Hey there wait a minute This won't take too long Danger elevated, can't tell write from wrong Brushing off the canines Flossing on veneers What you got to give em? I wanna know You're looking long in the tooth And I think they cooked your goose I wanna know if you know What it will take to turn you loose I want to see you get there All without a care So turn it up, turn up Overfilled my cup Brushing off the canines Flossing on veneers What you got to give em? I wanna know

Tea For Two 03:52
Taking matters in my own hands Cuz the rot sure set in Headed out here tonight Gonna shed this old skin You had me hypnotized I'm feeling sanctified I'm here to testify Pour me some Rock n' roll tea for two That's the way it turned out Lord I never lost sight All this pain was for nothing Now I'm feeling alright You had me hypnotized I'm feeling sanctified I'm here to testify Pour me some Rock n' roll tea for two

Liquid Lair 06:13
I found a ride for you I know you wanted to And when you go to sleep You know you got me beat Get down stay down Look around take me down anywhere Get down stay down Look around take me down liquid lair And there's a time and place full of love And there's a way so below as above I'll travel round with you I know you want me to It doesn't ever cease It's just you and me Get down stay down Look around take me down anywhere Get down stay down Look around take me down liquid lair And there's a time and place full of love And there's a way so below as above

Spun out burned down open wide Sun comes up in the blink of an eye I need to believe it's true Shatter my reality before you're thru These things beyond my control Let it loose, let it roll Jump right into your afterglow Laughing tears while me fever flows Burn up left out on the tracks Won't turn it around, can't never go back See my rider Now I'm gonna play with fire Thought that something was missing But now I got a blues technician These things beyond my control Let it loose, let it roll Late night creep thru your marigolds Back in the habit of the Cherokee Rose See my rider Now I'm gonna play with fire Oh I would be so distraught If you, you could be sold and bought All you Grady babies

Got a small room in a grand hotel Then she starts to ring that morning bell Milk of the stars on four legs Head of the lioness painted green When it let's out I try to hook it up I just need her to pour me a cup Look out look out Open up take your medicine Look out look Take a sip of Mrs. Vinegar Nobody's home the owner's gone out for a while Outside it's cool, but inside there's a roaring fire A five fold spirit sensation Time and tide burnt across the back The joker laughed so hard he cried And you can guess the reason why Look out look out Open up take your medicine Look out look Take a sip of Mrs. Vinegar
7.
Just about a mile away Forever and a day Looking for something to say But there's nothing Looking out across the dawn Cherub above the door All that my eyes can see Moving backwards Forever and a day Forever and a day Forever and a day Forever on our way All about your ways and means Lucid as you dream All the things that might have been Moving onwards Time to put the fields to bed Listen to the things she said Close the circle spin the thread Til tomorrow Forever and a day Forever and a day Forever and a day Forever on our way

Wait for rotations rolling 3 into 9 It's going to rap again It seems unreal but you start to believe Some things you just can't explain Tables Turning Electric theory rolling on through the night We're gonna light up the sky You don't believe it gonna figure it out I'd like to see you try Tables Turning Everybody's got a load to bear Everybody's got tale to tell Everybody's got a soul to sell Tables Turning

Hobby Horse 02:47
Hobby horse quit watching the ketel Hobby horse got something to settle Hobby horse with your foot on the pedal Ride ride hobby horse Hobby horse gonna roll thru the city Hobby horse and you're feeling so pretty Hobby horse on the one Mississippi Ride ride hobby horse Hobby horse gonna break out the stable Hobby horse are you willing and able Hobby horse from the grave to the cradle Ride ride hobby horse Hobby horse gonna roll thru the city Hobby horse and you're feeling so pretty Hobby horse on the one Mississippi Ride ride hobby horse

Even Out 05:01
I never knew it was around me And when you let it go You showed me out of these surroundings What can I say about it Even out, even out, even out Tell the world about it You never a thing about it Just like to talk it up You know it's all in how you frame it Why don't you hang it up? Even out, even out, even out Tell the world about it
