Planes
Watching the planes go by
Looking for a hero
Inside of me
In spite of me
Arresting my own damn time
Filling in a million windows
Inviting me
It frightens me
Why won't you let me decide?
It's fine
And you might be surprised that I
I'm always
Watching the planes go by
Banking on the shadows
Reminding me
It's guiding me
Wrestling the nerve to try
Kicking in a million doorways
In front of me
Confronting me
Why?
Why won't you let me decide?
It's fine
And you might be surprised that I
I'm always
Watching the planes go by
Looking for a hero
Inside of me
In spite of me
Arresting my own damn time
Filling in a million windows
Inviting me
It frightens me
Why?
Why won't you let me just fly?
And you might be surprised that I
I'm always
Watching the planes go

Pyongyang Town
I'm going down to Pyongyang Town
The devil may care
But I can't say why
I'm going down
To Pyongyang Town
I'm going down
To Pyongyang Town
The little man called for a Soju toast
So I packed my rings and a wedding gown
Cuz I'm going down
To Pyongyang Town
I'm going down
From Chicago off the ground
Called up the Chief but he never calls me back
No, No
But a player's gotta play and the man he pays in cash
It's my backboard to crash
You can't cry foul if you've never been hacked
Oh no
And it ain't your party and it ain't your crown
I'm going down
To Pyongyang Town
I'm going down yeah
From Chicago off the ground
I'm going down
To Pyongyang Town

Sour Patch Kid
Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say something
Yeah, it's been along time
It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end
What are you reading?
What is your story?
Are you bah bah black sheep?
Or Hikikomori?
I don't know what to tell you
But I've been there too
Damned if I don't
Damned if I do
I can't get through
Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say something
Yeah, it's been along time
It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end
How are you sleeping?
The pills are candy coating
Where's your fortune cookie?
How's your future going?
I don't know what to tell you
But I've been there too
Damned if I know
Damned if I knew
I still can't get through
Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say something
Yeah, it's been along time
It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end
What are you reading?
What is the story?
Are you bah bah black sheep?
Or Hikikomori?
I don't know what to tell you
But I've been there too
Damned if I don't
Damned if do
Why so quiet?
Kitty got your tongue?
Please say somethings
Yeah, it's been along time
It's no secret
You don't have to pretend
It's a sour patch kid
But it's sweet in the end

Mayor

Mayor
Look what's coming down the street again
Marty Balin, Bernie Taupin, Bowie, Bolan
Kris Kristofferson
Amen
Heaven knows we're always on the mend
Old Messiahs
New pariahs
Maybe all the Gods retire
In the end
And the mayor don't rock
And the mayor don't roll
While the whole world is watching
They're stealing the show
Right out from under your nose
Didja hear what's crawling up the charts my friend?
Sounds like someone's lying to you
Sounds of sirens
Lullaby-ing
You to them
Diplomats and Go Go brats
On the disco floor with the technocrats
It's a foxtrot in a honey trap for sure
Sounds like someone's plying you
With chemicals and crazy glue
Who made that bed?
And the mayor don't rock
And the mayor don't roll
While the whole world is watching
They're stealing the show
Right out from under your nose
Repeat Chorus
Diplomats and Go Go brats

Big Dumb Heart (Love Song For Nala)
Big dumb heart
I feel it beating
Where to start?
To tell you that
I'm onto you
But I can't tell you what to do
Or how to play that part
Big dumb heart
Long lost road
The one that I'm taking
Tries my soul
But I'm not breaking down
Trying to get out of town
Cuz now the bridge is out
Sunny five degrees
A breeze is in the trees
It's where we want to be
Thru the arteries
The highways if you please
Will take you back to your
Big dumb heart
Big dumb heart
I feel it beating
Where to start?
To tell you that
I'm onto you
But I can't tell you what to do
Or how to play that part
Big dumb heart
Sunny five degrees
A breeze is in the trees
It's where we want to be
Thru the arteries
The highways if you please
Will take you back to your
Big dumb heart
Big dumb heart
I feel it beating
Where to start?
To tell you that
I'm onto you
Now you do what you whatcha gotta do
Whatcha gotta do
But ya got to play that part
Big dumb heart
Big dumb heart
Big dumb heart

Foreign Movie

Foreign Movie
Half past time and a quarter to some
A whole lotta runnin' when the train's gone down
Slave to the suburbs
And dinner downtown
Mukbang Sally at the barber shop
Say, "American man need to settle down."
Bedrooms and basements
and dinners online
I dreamt that we were living
Renting a room on the Casa Del Soul
Fishing for meals
Singing for drinks
And tickets home
Woke to the screaming
Of sirens and cynics
Fools and their gold
Scheming for deals
Hustling for winks
And centerfolds
Half past time and a quarter to some
Need a whole lotta lovin'
When the day is done
Lottery wishes and heavenly wants
Hard Luck Candy at The Lemon Drop
Ready to retire at the age of twenty one
Hand in your pocket
And a foot on your gun
I dreamed we were leaving
Making our bed in the Casa Del Soul
Flash in the pan
Cash in the pot
For another go
Woke up retreating
From liars and critics
That had us on hold
Dig up the hatchet to bury the bone
Pushing through the crowd now
So get out of the way
It's a foreign movie
Milk punch for breakfast
Now boarding Volaris
And it's a foreign movie darling
(Repeat All Chorus')
Half past time and a quarter to some
Mukbang Sally at the barbershop
Half past time and a quarter to some
Hard Luck Candy at The Lemon Drop

WT34 (Some Run Away)
Long year
Wrong year
For Jumping the gun
This year
No fear
As we back into the sun
Wouldn't it be nice
To get out of traffic for a while
Turn off the noise
Turn on the sky
Come here
My dear
Let me whisper in your ear
Nothing
Something
Anything you wanna hear
Wouldn't it be sweet
To cheat the timer for a while
Turn in the chains
Turn on the tide
And when they question
All the fools
Who'd want to stay
Some run away
Some run away
(Repeat)
Long year
Wrong year
For jumping the gun
This year
No fear
As we back into the sun
Wouldn't it be nice
To get out of traffic for a while
Turn off the noise
Turn on the sky
And when they question
All the fools
Who'd want to stay
Some run away
Some run away
Some run away
Some run away
Some run away
Some run away

Show Business Weasels
Show business weasels
Couldn't take me by surprise
But as they tried
I couldn't care, I had no time
I didn't mind if they took the door and ran away
I had to catch a cab
To catch a plane
Cuz at the other end
Is you
My heart was racing
So it seemed to stop my watch
But I knew you'd be waiting
All I had was to carry on
I had to find a way to push past all the yawning men
Leaning on their bags
I couldn't wait again
Cuz at the other end
Is you
Slow me down
Throw you down
To the ground
Take my chances
I gotta fly
Security guy
Speed up the line
(Repeat)
Show business weasels
Couldn't take me by surprise
But as hey tried
I couldn't care, I had no time
And I didn't mind if they too the door and ran away
I had to catch a cab
To catch a plane
Cuz at the other end
Catch a plane
Cuz at the other end
Is you
Is you
Is you

Watch That Name
You'd better watch that name
Midas promise everything yeah
You'd better watch that game
With eyes out the back of your head
You're waiting on that big pay day
Love and peace and hoping for some petty change yeah
We're sorry but the lottery
Won't be paid today
You'd better watch that name
Judas gonna turn you in yeah
If you don't buy in to their plan
With lies put in the back of your head
You're thinking that you'll have your say
Taking pictures of yourself out on the motorway
We're sorry but it just won't play on the beat today
And I heard about this kind of thing
So many years before
So I'm going down to the river
To watch that willow bend
And I've had my doubts like I did before
So I'm really not that sure
I can't stand in this land of pretend
And still have the sun on my skin
And my back to the wind
You'd better watch that name
They run in packs, enslave the kid yeah
Common Core zombies to the highest bid
Oh my! Who made that bed?
You're swinging on a pendulum
Drawing your conclusions from the late night shows
We're sorry but you're being sold
The goods today
And I heard about this kind of thing
So many years before
So I'm going down to the river
To watch that willow bend
And I've had my doubts like I did before
So I'm really not that sure
I can't stand in this land of pretend
And still have the sun on my skin
And my back to the wind
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
My back to the wind
You'd better watch that name
Midas promise everything yeah
You'd better watch that game
With eyes out the back of your head
You're waiting on that big pay day
Love and peace and hoping for some petty change yeah
We're sorry but the lottery
Won't be paid today
You'd better watch that name
Judas gonna turn you in yeah
If you don't buy in to their plan
With lies put in the back of your head
You're thinking that you'll have your say
Taking pictures of yourself out on the motorway
We're sorry but it just won't play on the beat today
You better watch that name
You'd better watch that game
Midas promise everything
You'd better watch that game
You better watch that name
You better watch that game
You'd better watch that name
You better watch that game
You better watch that name
Midas promise everything
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
