La Melodía
04:31

=================================================
I could be your smoking gun
If I had the might
And I could be your left-hand glove
If you had the right
No matter what the case may be
It will involve
All these ambiguities we must resolve
I could be your microphone
If I had a voice
And I could be your ticket home
If you made the choice
No matter what the outcome is
It will entail
The need for some strange sort of
Logic to prevail
The melody is slowly creeping
Through the doubts left in my mind
It seems that she has been keeping
Well this secret for some time
And now those wishful words
So seldom heard
Are brought forth in a song
And by the way she sounds
I know it won't be long, no
The melody . . .
I could be your mystery man
If I found my way
And I could be your one-night stand
If you'd let me stay
No matter what the circumstance
It will include
Communication that's not
Nearly so crude
The melody is slowly creeping
Through the doubts left in my mind
It seems that she has been keeping
Well this secret for some time
And now those wishful words
So seldom heard
Are brought forth in a song
And by the way she sounds
I know it won't be long, no
The melody . . .
Melody . . .
I may be worth a 2nd glance
But I ain't worth a 2nd chance
I'm always failing to heed
The remonstrance . . .
The melody is slowly creeping
Through the doubts left in my mind
It seems that she has been keeping
Well this secret for some time
And now those wishful words
So seldom heard
Are brought forth in a song
And by the way she sounds
I know it won't be long, no
The melody's . . .
Hold on me . . .

When She Cries
02:39
|
|||
================================================
Through the window
I can see her
Looking at me
Through her window
That is where
Our love will stay
'Cause that's the window
That divides us
And the window
That reminds us
When our love
Went astray
When she cries
I can hear her
And she cries
Everyday
When she cries
I am near her
But there is
Nothing I can say
In the garden
Where we first met
That is where I
Used to meet her
Now I'm forced
To stay away
'Cause when she's
Lonely in the garden
Begging for
Another pardon
That is where
She likes to stay
When she cries
I can hear her
And she cries
Everyday
When she cries
I am near her
But there is
Nothing I can say
When she cries . . .
When she cries . . .
When she cries
I can hear her
And she cries
Everyday
When she cries
I am near her
But there is
Nothing . . .
Nothing I can say

Stereotypical Gary
03:35
|
|||
================================================
He slides through the door
And he's right on time again
He straightens his tie & makes
Sure his shirt's tucked in
He's not content with his
Cramped little office space
But like the coffee mug on his desk
He wears a smiley face . . .

Old-Fashioned Morphine

=================================================
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
It's good enough for me
Well it was good enough for my grandpa
It was good enough for my grandpa
It was good enough for my grandpa
It's good enough for me
Sister don't get worried
Sister don't get worried
Sister don't get worried
For the world is almost done
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
It's good enough for me
Well it was good enough for Billy Burroughs
It was good enough for Billy Burroughs
It was good enough for Jesus Christ
That's good enough for me
Sister don't get worried
Sister don't get worried
Sister don't get worried
For the world is almost done
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
It's good enough for me
Well it was good enough for Mark Sandman
It was good enough for Mark Sandman
It was good enough for Mark Sandman
That's good enough for me
Sister don't get worried
Sister don't get worried
Sister don't get worried
For the world is almost done
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
Gimme that old-fashioned morphine
It's good enough for me

It never rains in a tunnel;
I do believe that's right
He loves to swim in a puddle
Of his insecure insight
I let you in
That's what I get
The face you give
Reminds me of a silhouette . . .

Fyre & Gunpowder
03:10
|
|||
================================================
Fyre & gunpowder;
She had a vision that spoke louder
It was of fyre & gunpowder
And now she knows me better
Than she knows myself
There was a girl
In a storefront window
With a banjo
Well I asked her
If she'd ever marry a fella
Marry a fella like me;
She said, "no"
But she was pretty
Fyre & gunpowder;
She had a vision that spoke louder
It was of fyre & gunpowder
And now she knows me better
Than she knows myself
Don't talk to me
About Missouri;
About mystery
I'm on the verge
Of losing my mind
And gaining your experience;
What's a dollar to me
In the city?
Fyre & gunpowder;
She had a vision that spoke louder
It was of fyre & gunpowder
And now she knows me better
Than she knows myself
Fyre & gunpowder;
She had a vision that spoke louder
It was of fyre & gunpowder
And now she knows me better
Than she knows myself
Now she knows me better
Than she knows myself
Now she knows me better
Than she knows myself

================================================
We passed upon the stairs
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long, long time ago
Oh, no!
Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
I laughed and shook his hand
I made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazer's stare
We walked a million hills
I must have died alone
A long, long time ago
Who knows?
Not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
Who knows?
Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
