What Did I Do?!
01:52

I dropped my keys and fell through the back door
I set some records then I hit the floor
I didn't know which way to go
Turned over on the hardwood floor
Another bruise it's a quarter to four
What do I know?
Do I know?
Pretty sure that I picked up the phone
Surprised you answered cause you're always alone
I know I know
And what did I do?
I know I dialed you
What did I do?
I fucked up, laid it on the line
I'm sure I told you that I love you this time
What were your words?
My head hurts
Held the bowl when I woke up
Am I your boyfriend or did we break up?

Train Station
01:31

Pacing, thinking
Pacing, thinking
Waiting, waiting
Waiting by the phone that never rings
Waiting for the letter that the postman never brings
Telling me that you're sorry, that you miss me
That I was right, that I was wrong
We could work it out and get along
And I'm waiting for the words that never come
Sitting smoking in the doorway in Dinky Town
Waiting patiently for you to come around
Thinking if I look hard enough into each passing face
Maybe they'll turn into you
Or someone to take your place
But the people and days pass
And I'm still sitting, thinking
Drinking on the platform at the station
Drowning my sorrows, waiting for the train to come
Having so much fun
Wish you were here
'Cause it's been years since the trains have run
And I'm still waiting, waiting, waiting
Waiting for the words that never come

Aberdeen

I’m done seeing days last longer than fish food here in Aberdeen
Done when my eyes peek open fourteen hours ain’t enough of sleep
Take this one stop light town away before it buries me
Corn fed cousins watch the grass grow feed the cows and watch them eat
I can’t sit back to work up some energy or sit stagnate
And suck in losses we’re gonna die young
Distressed here
The youth all look like Dwight Yoakam decaying like a cavity
Chewing tobacco filling spit buckets wonder why they got no teeth

Did you know that I kept that for a year?
And all this time I figured you'd be there
Last time I saw you I tried to move through the crowd
And I was calling your name but the band played too loud
Rodeo clown
Rodeo clown
Do you know?

I Only Drink Bud
02:35
|
|||
|
I don't wanna hear your shit
Don't wanna see your face
'Cause when it comes to drinking beer
Don't you get on my case
Heineken is skunk piss
And Miller sucks so bad
I'm Joe Kerr I've tried 'em all
I've spilled more than you've had
Hey you motherfuckers I only drink Bud
Hey you motherfuckers I only drink Bud
Ben Weasel don't know a thing
Rancid don't even drink
Even little Vapid's on the wagon
Don't it stink?
People in Chicago always brag about Old Style
Before I drink that swill again
It's gonna be a while
Written By Hugh O’Neill / Chris Barnard / Joseph P. King

Stick

He kicked back on the sofa put his feet up
And poured himself a drink
She stood in front of the ball game and said
"Don't you ever think?
I'm trying to save our lives
I'm trying to open your eyes
But you just sit there and pretend
You're not missing a thing”
"Why must you act the way you do?
Why can't you believe in me and you?
Is there something wrong with me
That makes you act the way you do?
Do you desire to kiss me
Do you ever really miss me?"
Some simple questions
Answer now or it's on to the next one
He jumped up with a six pack and headed for the door
And to the car
She hollered for him to come back in
And she headed down the hall
Grabbed a suitcase and threw it on the bed
Started crying and she bowed her head
She thought, love, is was what it was all about
But she ain't learnin' a thing
"Why must you act the way you do?
Why can't you believe in me and you?
Is there something wrong with me
That makes you act the way you do?
Do you desire to kiss me
Do you ever really miss me?"
Some simple questions
Answer now or it's on to the next one
Sixty-five in a school zone
Thinkin' 'bout the wife he left at home
Old memories were pounding into his head
He stopped to use the phone
"I'm truly sorry for what I've done
I swear to God that you're the only one
And if you'd only let me come back home
I'd love to be there for you"
"Why must I act the way I do?
Why can't I believe in me and you?
Is there something wrong with me
That makes me act the way I do?
Yes I desire to kiss you
And I always miss you"
Some simple questions
Answer now "you're the only one”

Jet Lag

Hell yeah I’ll repeat him I know its all the same to you
Whether if its Wednesday or Friday or Saturday or Monday or some such
Got a way about you Jet Lag to give the devil his due
But you don’t worry about the details all that much
Jet lag ain’t it a drag
When theres no one else around to talk to ‘cept for you and me
Jet lag ain’t it a drag
But I know i can count on you to keep me company
International dateline well you know that it ain’t no friend of mine
When that table or wheel locks wear that well
Jet lag you been a real good friend and I know that we’ll meet in back in the air
Til then have a seat and lets talk it over again
Jet lag ain’t it a drag
When theres no one else around to talk to ‘cept for you and me
Jet lag ain’t it a drag
But I know I can count on you to keep me company
I can count on you to keep me company
Well I can count on you to keep me company
