Digital Daze 03:43
Love in the digital Love in the digital age Some say it can't be found Wake up from your digital Wake up from your digital daze And let me chase you down Open up an app So convenient, darts on a map What kind of girl am I looking for today? So many ethnicities in LA You pop up in my phone Swipe right baby, now we're in the zone I don't mean to objectify you But your body's hanging out Of your bikini by the pool Let's talk Let me take your memory for a walk But before we get too radical Are the zodiac compatible? I'm leaving it to chance This digital romance Will never make me smile Meet me in the sun We'll have a little fun And feel a real emotion Ooh Love in the digital Love in the digital age Some say it can't be found Wake up from your digital Wake up from your digital daze And let me chase you down Time to meet up in person Will my opinion of you worsen Indeed it does 'Bout time I get working on a buzz SIp sip sip uh Silly noises coming out your lip-uhs I fake a laugh and pretend to be caring A smokeshow at the bar is staring I got to go An urgent matter to attend to, ya know? Better luck next time, I'm mean But I appreciate you setting the scene I'm leaving it to chance This digital romance Will never make me smile Meet me in the sun We'll have a little fun And feel a real emotion Ooh

Still rolling around in the garbage Can't shake an image of a marble staircase Spiraling up to my bedroom Pretty lover wearing nothing But a diamond ring Is it possible I'm responsible for my stench? Dirty fingers reaching for a handle Unlocking a world I never knew before Pretty faces assembled for a party Erupt with laughter as I hit the floor Is it possible I'm responsible for my pain? I don't know when it started Maybe ever since we parted But now I feel retarded Bleeding on a stranger's carpet I've never felt so alone Ambulance dancing on the freeway Weaving in and out toward the hospital Hey nurse, don't you recognize me? I'm Dr. Feelgood, you're on my floor Is it possible You've forgotten everything? Doo doo doo doo Is it possible You've forgotten everything? I don't know when it started Maybe ever since we parted But now I feel retarded Bleeding on a stranger's carpet I've never felt so alone So alone

Don't wait for the future to fade Like a wave in the ocean I know a place where we can erase Trepidatious emotion So let's roll from the bayou Toward the bay of Gibraltar In Pensacola we can lie low Let the see be the altar, ya know? Surrounded by wind and water Under stormy skies Hounded by wicked marauders They'll never take us alive Either you do or you don't Feel the fear in the swelter A spicy Cajun storm is raging I think we better seek shelter So let's roll from the bayou Toward the bay of Gibraltar In Pensacola we can lie low Let the see be the altar, ya know? Surrounded by wind and water Under stormy skies Hounded by wicked marauders They'll never take us alive Better keep moving or you're toast Hurricane cruising up the Emerald Coast

A Reason Why 04:04
For fifteen years I sold my wares to the world I ran the local five and dime Every week I'd make Just enough to take my wife For a bite and a bottle of wine But they shut me down Everyone in town was surprised Now I'm on the street And I'm begging for a reason why A reason why, oh why Begging for a reason why Why? I fought two years For a country dear to my heat In a desert far away When I came back home I intended to roam around My beautiful US of A But they locked it down Was the freedom we fought for a lie? Why was I overseas? I'm begging for a reason why A reason why, oh why Begging for a reason why Why?

I feel like a bumblebee I can't hate you I only want to pollinate you We've got a buzz going on Why don't you Open up and let me poke you? What I got to do To make you my little buttercup? Jalapeno Eyes I bought a used Chevy Round two I can pick you up Jalapeno Eyes You're a spicy little chica That I don't want to irritate Jalapeno Eyes Looking at you could make A grown man salivate Jalapeno Eyes I just can't handle the heat When I kiss you I'm always reaching for a tissue No, I don't want to leave Your garden I'm on my knees, I beg your pardon What I got to do To make you my little buttercup? Jalapeno Eyes I bought a used Chevy Round two I can pick you up Jalapeno Eyes You're a spicy little chica That I don't want to irritate Jalapeno Eyes Looking at you could make A grown man salivate Jalapeno Eyes It's a never-ending tragedy It's a dance that never dies An eternity I'll wait for you And your jalapeno eyes Jalapeno Eyes

Hey divine Love of mine Take your time Don't hurry Show your sign Draw the line Drink your wine Don't worry We'll be fine Come rain or shine You and I were meant to be Keep in mind If we rewind You were my worst enemy Ooh Hey divine (hey divine) Love of mine (love of mine) Take your time (take your time) Don't hurry (don't hurry) Show your sign (show your sign) Draw the line (draw the line) Drink your wine (drink your wine) Don't worry (No, don't you worry) We'll be fine Come rain or shine You and I were meant to be (hey, hey, hey) Keep in mind If we rewind You were my worst enemy (hey, hey, hey) Ooh

Esmeralda 03:58
Esmeralda, Esmeralda Esmeralda, why'd you run away When I said I need your loving evermore Esmeralda, why'd you run away When I said I'm burning for you at my core Seven summers I watched you grow Into a woman from an indigo child Ain't it funny how a heart can change And a man can hallucinate Esmeralda, why'd you run away When I said In you I wish to confide Esmeralda, why'd you run away When I said Ooh will you be my bride? Seven summers I watched you grow Into a woman from an indigo child Ain't it funny how a heart can change And a man can hallucinate

Hopeful 03:28
Everybody's hopeful For some kind of miracle Everybody's hopeful For some kind of change Everybody's hopeful For some kind of miracle Everybody's hopeful For some kind of Shiny toy that'll never break A never-ending holiday A real friend who won't forsake ya A government that won't betray ya Ooh Everybody's hopeful (everybody's hopeful) For some kind of miracle Everybody's hopeful (everybody's hopeful) For some kind of change Everybody's hopeful (everybody's hopeful) For some kind of miracle Everybody's hopeful For some kind of Fancy car that never fails A partner in crime that never bails An underdog who will prevail A politician not for sale, oh Ooh Everybody's hopeful (everybody's hopeful) For some kind of miracle Everybody's hopeful (everybody's hopeful) For some kind of change Everybody's hopeful (everybody's hopeful) For some kind of miracle Everybody's hopeful For some kind of Ooh waiting on a miracle (waiting on a miracle) Ooh waiting on a change (waiting on a change) Ooh give my miracle (give my miracle) Please give my change Change, change, change

On the day Lily ran away I knew not what to do So he made you from a rib inside of me The original barbecue Without warning You came storming into my heart Without evening There'd be no morning Nowhere to start You, me, and a serpent in a tree Ain't no one else around Who knew that a fungus or a fruit Could turn the whole world upside down And without warning The pain came pouring Into my brain Without evening There'd be no mourning No one to blame Ooh On the day we were sent away The prophecy was fulfilled If I'd obeyed and let Lily have her way I might be in the garden still Without warning You came storming into my heart Without evening There'd be no morning Nowhere to start Ooh

Tell me when the curtain falls Are we going to have withdrawals? Addicted to a fake economy I don't want to to wear the mark of the beast Inside me Get your needle out of my face Enough of this damned rat race I'm holding on to my humanity Why you want to mess with my DNA So slyly? I just want to have some fun Soaking up the sun And be a soldier for the truth I look around and wonder What's the use anymore? Ooh hallelujah Hallelujah
