Wait a Minute, Man

Breathe deep fall asleep tell yourself you’re better off alone high tide waves arrive the time has come for all of this to come undone
wait a minute man you’ve got me standing on the edge again the last thing you said was that it’s never going to end what did you expect when the world comes crashing in the last time I checked there was just a minute left
for all of this to come undone
smokescreen don’t believe I can finally feel the real thing in the world turns and another day is gone
wait a minute man you’ve got me standing on the edge again the last thing you said was that it’s never going to end what did you expect when the world comes crashing in the last time I checked there was just a minute left
for all of this to come undone

The Rocker

I am your main man if you're looking for trouble
I take no lip no one's tougher than me
I'd kick your face you'd soon be seeing double
Hey little girl keep your hands off of me
I'm a rocker
I'm a rocker
I'm a roller too, baby
I'm a rocker
Down at the juke joint me and the boys are stompin'
Bippin' an' boppin' and telling a dirty joke or two
In walked this chick and I knew she was up to something
And I kissed her right there out of the blue
I said, "Hey baby, meet me I'm a tough guy
Got my cycle outside, wanna try?"
She just looked at me and rolled them big eyes and said,
"Ooh, I'd do anything for you, 'cause you're a rocker"
That's right
I'm a rocker
I'm a roller too, honey
I'm a rocker
I love to rock and roll
I get my records at the Rock On stall
Rock and roll
Teddy boy, you got them all
Rocker
I love to rock and roll
I get my records at the Rock On stall
Sweet rock and roll
Teddy boy, you got them all
I'm a rocker

Ghosted

No one can spot the ghost in me I’d let it out but then the world would see It feels so real you start to say reminds me of the Sound’s we used to make
seven years of broken mirrors at least we live them all the hardest way
the world comes crumbling down around you leaves without a sound to taunt you there’s no way that I could haunt you wrong I know it seems there’s no one on your side tonight but I’ve been here all along
waking up and falling through the floor takes some getting used to I watch it happen all again replaying thoughts spinning around in my head
shedding tears for broken years seems to me to be the biggest waste
the world comes crumbling down around you leaves without a sound to taunt you there’s no way that I could haunt you wrong I know it seems there’s no one on your side tonight but I’ve been here all along

Miles Away
03:49
|

Breathe in the night winds and I can feel it starting to spin the cold air but nobody cares you’re miles away but I can feel it still in pardon the way that I am trying to deal your miles away but I can feelBut I can feel you rolling on and it takes too long and before you know it I’ll be gone
Burn down and let it in stop the world and start again lost in a days you’ve got a way of cashing in
And when the winds come back again blowing through my mind a skeleton a nightmare but nobody cares I’m miles away but I can hear it still I’m dying each day or I am starting to heal and miles away but I can hear it drumming on and it hits too hard and before you know it I’ll be gone
Burn down and let it in stop the world and start again do you remember the days we lost it all and nothings the same it’s only under the skin look away and we are at it again lost in a daze you’ve got a way of cashing in
And out of the ashes of phoenix is rising and then from the fire a lightning bolt the city at night is full of surprises and that’s why I’ll be going home

Ace Of Spades
03:01
|

f you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is the Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades
Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil
Going with the flow, it's all a game to me
Seven or eleven, snake eyes watching you
Double up or quit, double stake or split, the Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades
You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools
But that's the way I like it baby
I don't wanna live for ever
And don't forget the joker!
Pushing up the ante, I know you gotta see me
Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be the Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades

Long Way To Run
03:21
|
|||
|
Concentrate on getting home it’s hard to see between the lines in the road blinding lights all in a row I swear one day I’m gonna learn to let it go
blindfold times are toxic encore isn’t it enough
and when I leave what’s left is yours if it were me I set a fire and close the door but I burn with intensity the wild lights and all that fever brings
blindfold times are toxic encore isn’t it enough hammer home the point you’re making eyes closed you’ll never see too much
wake the neighbors called the papers as if you haven’t seen enough the world spills from a paper cup walk-through vapors and see-through chambers that’s a long long way to run to find out you’re the only one

Heart racing don’t go chasing your dreams now that’s a fantasy in the clouds embracing imitation saturations sounded good till now hey bright eyes worlds collide who’s got one more shout before they take it With all we’ve lost will never make it
Dead man walking no one talking I found my fire you found me out another night it’s no surprise you lied right through your teeth I know you tried but all that’s wasted and now is the time for us to take
it started off with my heart racing bet it all do it again now I’m left with my head spinning I’m a wild card I’ll let you go I lost it all but I should’ve known
left for the road less taken I’ve never seen a model T that clean last meal final appeal you know what I mean you know what I mean don’t go chasing I know you’re tired of faking
it started off with my heart racing bet it all do it again now I’m left with my head spinning I’m a wild card I’ll let you go I lost it all but I should’ve known

Golden
02:50

The fever the fire we live through a wire from all around I can almost hear the same old story doesn’t it get boring the light disappears
the world burns out of control and melts your heart of gold
as time comes on done we all need relief from the temperatures it’s hard to breathe we’ve heard it before The memories fall short disintegrating
the world burns out of control and melts your heart of gold
I can’t help it every time I think it’s over it’s just moving slower and just like disappearing ink this time nothing comes to mind there’s no air it’s hard to sleep here I toss and turn all night because outside there’s a fire in the sky
the world burns out of control and melts your heart of gold

Cinnamon Girl
03:37

|
I want to live with a cinnamon girl
I could be happy the rest of my life
With a cinnamon girl
A dreamer of pictures, I run in the night
You see us together, chasing the moonlight
My cinnamon girl
Ten silver saxes, a bass with a bow
The drummer relaxes and waits between shows
For his cinnamon girl
A dreamer of pictures, I run in the night
You see us together, chasing the moonlight
My cinnamon girl
Pa sent me money now
I'm gonna make it somehow
I need another chance
You see your baby loves to dance
Yeah, yeah, yeah
