have you heard a bout the man
who was trapped inside a can
when he tried to get a tan?
it was such a stupid plan
but typical for stan
he was feeling kinda pale
and he wanted to get tail
cause the ladies always bail
and he always seemed to fail
especially with Gayle
but the lady from the place
had a nose upon her face
that could save the human race!
she would blow it just in case
it was raining down from space
have you heard all about it?
have you read the posts?
have you heard the jokes?
have you seen the notes?
there's a super comet storm
which is suddenly the norm
and its getting kind of warm
and its taking on the form
of a hippy in a dorm
and a tree upon the hill
that was planted there by bill
its a groovy place to chill
and i know you always will
cause you never drink swill
when the day is super long
and you feel you don't belong
you can sing a stupid song
sing a stupid song,
sing a stupid song
have you heard all about it?
have you read the posts?
have you heard the jokes?
have you seen the notes?
when the day is super long
and you feel you don't belong
you can sing a stupid song
sing a stupid song,
sing a stupid song
if it doesn't turn around
you can check the lost and found
for a different kinda sound
a different kinda sound
a different kinda sound
have you heard all about it?
have you read the posts?
have you heard the jokes?
have you seen the notes?

plan on bein dumb
03:06
|

don't nee no saddle soap to clean my shoes
don't need telescope to get the blues
i nod and smile while you talk
i never could chew gum and walk
and I'm not sure i know exactly what you mean
I'm not the best I'm not the worst I'm in between
you know what i mean?
if you plan on bein dumb well you can be dumb with me
i never understood the need to try
i never thought to ask the reason why
i never thought to ask the reason why
i didn't hear what you just said, i was drifting off instead
there's all these people in my head that i don't know
they take there time and undermine the status quo
can you tell me how i got this way?
can we try again some other day?
can i get this off my chest
I'm not the best I'm not the worst I'm in between
you know what i mean?
if you plan on bein dumb well you can be dumb with me

hard to imagine, anyone liking CHIPs,
just seems so slow now, maybe it's not
Hard to believe I, used to like Michael Knight.
maybe i wasn't right, maybe i was
KITT can be cruising, cruising the parking lot
he just needs to find a spot, a spot to fit in
You heard the captain, he said be safe out there
I know you really care, you care a lot
CHIPs is on then the A-team,
knightrider and then Hill Street Blues
(i cant wait til)
raised, raised on a tv show,
every one i know, everyone i know
You know that B.A. is picking up other guys
to throw at the other guys
his weapon of choice
Carol is a good mom quit your bitchin
gotta ask Alice down in the kitchen
throw them bad guys B.A., throw them at the D.A.
itchy and scratchy on tv with a man dressed like a bumblebee
your off the case McGarnacle, no your off your case chief!
CHIPs is on then the A-team,
knightrider and then Hill Street Blues
(i cant wait til)
raised, raised on a tv show,
everyone i know, everyone i know

lights and music
07:47

you know i cant predict the future
i just hope tonight's alright
gotta get the engine running
before the lights go down
and we cannot find our way
lights and music fill your field of view
a thousand others still just me and you
looking for it, looking for it
looking for our place
i never knew this place existed
kind of off the beaten path
I'm just glad we finally made it
before the lights went down
and we could not find our way
lights and music fill your field of view
a thousand others still just me and you
looking for it, looking for it
looking for our place

when i was a kind i had a firend, we had nothing but time and no money to spend
passenger seat, he's making me laugh, whatever i got you know youre getting half
i know that he's out there, but he's countin me out, i wanna forget what it was all about
what it was all about
lookin at pictures of you, never too many, only a few
i know I'll regret, i wanna forget, lookin at pictures of you
back in the newels, you know we had it do good. i should have known better and i knew that i could
so sentimental, you know I'm a fool, but maybe I'll see ya maybe it'll be cool
maybe it'll be cool
lookin at pictures of you, seeing a freiend that i never outgrew
i know I'll regret it, i wanna forget, lookin at pictures of you
i wanna be happy, i wanna be free, i wanna know the end i wanna mystery
i know that your comin, and i guarantee, back to where i know you wanna be, and i wanna be
lookin at pictures of you, seein a friend that i never outgrew
never regret it, never forget, lookin at pictures of you

this stories quite a gem, and it isn't no joke
black friday 4am, steppin out for a smoke.
hear that sound, come around again
it circled back again, flying low now, i just don't know how
lasers shoot out of the plane!spanning across the terrain
panning across from the sky
hitting matt right in the eye!
up in the sky there's a plane with no man in it!
glorious lasers fan down from the sky
hitting the earth and the trees and matt's eye
waiting to scan us as soon as it's near
what was the purpose the reason for it to appear
some might find it inhumane
hunting with a robot plane
soon you'll see them everywhere
soaring in the open air
some might find it inhumane...
i tried to run inside when i first saw the light
but i was petrified, inexplicable sight
laser light, dead of night, look up!
the lasers scanned the ground, just us not all around
i can still hear the sound, don't know what they have found
is it man or machine? look out!
up in the sky there's a plane with no man in it

hour 2 of an all night run
Belly to the bar and I’m having fun
In walk oldest man I've new
Round these parts since '32
(so he) Finds the only vacancy
Which just so happens is next to me
telling stories and drinking beer
"did you know i used to be a bombardier
now i know like this spot
So I lean to the bar and order a shot
"Make it 2" he adds to the line
"And a miller back and a jug of that wine"
Started talking bout success
Surviving in a world of stress
I asked him for advice to go
Listen up young man if you wanna know
baby's got a listen to the man at the bar he's got wisdom he's buyin
baby's got a list of all the lies that he's told he's a fake and he's lyin
oh come on come on now, which is it?
now, which is it?
now, which is it?
In walks a chick about half my age
5 foot nine and dressed for the stage
He sez "get lost" and he's talking to me
I hit up a table near by to see
oh my my i can't believe
what old jack's got up his sleeve
What Old Jack's mans got up his sleeve
She takes the seat right next his
I hear him start with a "pardon me miss"
2 drinks in, there having a blast
She said she didn't even know that time had past
He said that’s ok I gotta head on back
Gotta turkey in the oven and another in the shack
"You aint goin home alone"
And her heel slipped on the cobblestone
He looked at me said "member what I said
Now I got to get her home to bed"
baby's got a listen to the man at the bar he's got wisdom he's buyin
baby's got a list of all the lies that he's told he's a fake and he's lyin
oh come on come on now, which is it?
now, which is it?
now, which is it?

she wanted a man like she had read about
he needed a girl that knew a melody that only he had heard
they came to a place they'd never been before
they wanted a friend but found another thing, if anything, it's love
can you see the day grow up into the night?
can you see the night, through the city light?
can you feel the love, shooting all around the world?
tonight you'll hear them singing down in cebu.
they flew to the sun to land in paradise
they knew that the moon would glow for them
and light there passage in the night.
can you see the day grow up into the night?
can you see the night, through the city light?
can you feel the love, shooting all around the world?
tonight you'll hear them singing down in cebu.

gotta know i like the stuff you say, and I'm diggin on the notes you play
you had to go you know i had to stay, i wouldn't have it any other way
come on come on and do the stand and leer
if you give me just a half a chance, i will tell you all about the dance
just cross your arms and spread your feet apart. make a face like you just smelled a fart
never smile, never move or cheer, now you got it it's the stand and leer
come on come on and do the stand and leer
it's getting better, you know it's getting better now hey,
(now i know) you gotta love a dude with a chicken under his seat
seat meat, seat meat. i know you're gonna be ok
who are the people underneath the lights
sound familiar but it isn't right
i had to see you just the other night
can't imagine we would reunite
come on come on and do the stand and leer

when you see his face you know your done
he’s got a fist for you
another day another day
he’s got one comin too
the apple doesn't fall, very fall at all
jonny beeachalo
dude you have crossed me for the last time, you know.
and now i will take a piss in your shampoo
the day will come he’ll come undone
and strike his daddy down
and we’ll be free of tyranny
and we’ll get back our town
the apple doesn't fall, very fall at all

oh i can't sleep, oh i can't
oh i can't sleep, oh i can't sleep
don't be messin with the program I've been watchin in my head
I'll be watchin yet another later when i got to bed
i was thinkin bout the program i been watchin in my head
so i didn't get a sense of anything you said.
we tossed an turned, day broke through the window
heaven crept beyond, and our consciousness was gone
why did you wake me?
why did you wake me?
why did you wake me?
why did you wake me?

swampy
08:16

Down in the lake,
There’s a creature stirring and a bout to awake
Slimy and green,
With a head like shark and an oily sheen
Some say he’s comin to the surface,
To feed in the dead of the night
Saturday night,
I might head on down to check out the sight
Darker than black,
And we head to the lake to see it attack
Grabbing a seat,
With a bottle of tequila and package of meat
What’s that there looking at a ripple,
A figure risin on up
Gotta be it,
Then we heard it speak and I lost my shit
"feed me tequila. wanta keela wanta keela yoogota keela wan wan ta keelagood."
Don’t know what it was, It caught a buzz
Doin what he does, Just like us
Sleepin in the day, Faraway
Wakin in the night, The guys all right
What do you know, The guys alright by me.
Never knew a monster quite like swampy.
Bringin up carp, To cook up on the grill.
Givin him tequila. He likes to swill and chill.
The guy can sing. A little like a frog
What u expect. for a creature from a bog.
Don’t ever ask. How he found his this fate.
His fins go limp. Sez “The worlds got too much hate for me"
farewell Swampy, for the sun is coming up. Farewell.
