Jesus Christ

I saw Jesus Christ out on the corner
He was waiting for his man
Scratching the back of his neck
What a sweet old nervous tick
Junkies have before their fix
and he looked up at the sky
with his darling, darting eyes
Yeah he lit up a cigarette
and had himself a dance
Singing
...
I saw Lady Liberty
Out on 34th
She was flipping some funny sign
To a dead end job
All the things we do to get along
Yeah the things we do to get along
and the wind it came in
and blew that crown away
Yeah she lit up a cigarette
and had herself a dance
Singing
...

I Remember

I remember you
At the high school dance
All dressed in white
From head to toe
You had that red lipstick on
and an angel's song rolling from your tongue
and we talked about what would be
If we jumped from the balcony
Out to that hotel pool
or got lost at sea
Well I'd like to think
I'd be an orange peel floating away
Outside of a cruise ship
Not caring whether my name made it on that good Year Blimp
but then again
It sure would be nice
If it rolled around your head
Every once in a while
Every once in a little while
We were dreaming off a cloud
In the city, through the streets, into the haze
I'd fill it up
With the things I never said
Yeah the things I never did
because I was scared
They'd come out the wrong way
I remember you walking away.

Title Fight
04:39

I remember
That first time you and I laid by the lake
Looking up at that cloudy sky
Hoping to find that blood shot moon
Knowing you has been my Title Fight
and by the second round
You had me on my ass
Out for the count
It just ain't fair
The way her body sways side to side
and the sparkle in her eyes
She's a lantern and I'm her fly
Knowing you has been my Title Fight
and by the second round
You had me on my ass
Out for the count
Never crosses her arms
Always sings along
At the local Rock and Roll show
She somehow held on
To that innocence that I lost
When the going got rough
Knowing you has been my Title Fight
and by the second round
You had me on my ass
Out for the count.

Daydreams

Don't listen to your Government
Don't listen to those old men
If you end up just like them
You got no one to blame but yourself
and the mistakes you never made
Now you sit alone
By your window-sill
Daydreaming about all the things
You could have been
Tell me about your day
and about that job you fucking hate
about all the sold out dates
and how your novel ends
and all the critical acclaim
your album gets.
Don't listen to your Government
Don't listen to those old men
If you end up just like them
You got no one to blame but yourself
