Other Planet Girl

She came from outer space
From a really far off place
Found herself in the States
In the Summer of ’66
Girl from another planet
She walked like a zombie babe
From a different time zone yeah
Found herself in strange places
All of these new and young faces
Shooting star up in the sky
Like a dragon in a fire fight
High upon a hill of granite
Girl from another planet
She appeared like a comet one day
Woke up early morn by the bay
On a quest or so they say
Lost her memory on the way
Shooting star up in the sky
Like a dragon in a fire fight
High upon a hill of granite
Girl from another planet

Viper O' The Shadows

Viper O’ The Shadows
Walking around with your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground
Dreaming of better days
Checking the signs with one foot on the mound
Then you change your pitch
Give ‘em a heater
Cursing out loud with a sweaty brow
A C-note in the shade
Things start to turn around
Don’t look now but it’s ol’ Smokey Brown
With a lumberjack gaze
Big Slim knows his job
Come on in and mow them down
Big daydreamer we need you here
Throw a strike you viper o’ the shadows
Walking around with your head in the clouds
And your feet on the ground
Dreaming of the golden age
Checking the signs with stolen bases in mind
Then the warm wind shifts
We’re just one run away
Cursing out loud with a sweaty brow
A C-note in the shade
Things start to turn around
Don’t look now it’s ol’ Smokey Brown
Big Slim knows his job
Come on in and mow them down
Big daydreamer we need you here
Throw a strike you viper o’ the shadows

Look Out Above
02:31
|
|||
|
Seen you hanging out
Smiling in sleepy town
City of many lights
Missing those midnight flights
You better look out
Hold your tongue
Turn a right into a wrong
You better look out
Switch it up
Make the best of what you got
You better look out
Got one choice now
Lifting up into the night
Million shadows burning bright
In a haze of city lights
On a train, a midnight ride
All the streets empty now
Lost in space but you don’t know how
You better watch out
Save the best
Turn a butterfly into a pest
You better watch out
Cut the fat
Let the weasels fall thru the cracks
You better watch out
Leave it alone
Make an ocean into a home
You better watch out

Airport Escape Route
03:08
|

|
She said take my hand now
Even if you don’t know how
There’s a flight at midnight
She said I don’t want to fight
Give it time now you will see
We took a cab to the airport
Nestled next to a fine resort
She took a trip to the restroom
Waited four hours couldn’t find her
Live your life don’t stare at me
We’re the ones making history
Give it time now you will see
We can make this what we want it to be
Found you drunk in the bar there
Slumped in your indifferent chair
All the wolves slightly growling
Should’ve seen the look on your face
Drink your drink don’t look at me
We’re the ones making misery
Give it time now you will see
We can be what we want to be
Give it time now you will see

In The Summertime
04:12
|

In the summertime you can sit and wait by you windowside
In the summertime when your friends pull up they want to go for a ride
In the summertime you can fall in love about a million times
In the summertime you live all of your 9 lives
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to matter
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to matter
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to happen to us.
In the summertime you can walk on down to the record store
In the summertime you can buy a Beatles or a Doors record
In the summertime you can paddle out for the seventh time
In the summertime, for ten dollars, you can buy a dime
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to matter
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to matter
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to happen to us.
Cause everywhere she goes
The time just rolls and rolls
I hear she’s coming back
For me
In the summertime you can sit and wait by you windowside
In the summertime when your friends pull up they want to go for a ride
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to matter
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to matter
Don’t care about it, nothing’s going to happen to us.

Back-Lit Sun
03:40
|
|||
|
Highs in the mid 60s rising
green grass Fast backs and 302s
The past is monochrome and silent
Watched you turn Olympic white
Colors bring A time of flowers
Nothing lives inside of sorrow
May this be the year
Of perfect vision
We’re all gonna see
What trouble’s coming
May these be the days
Of saturation
A sunburst affair
Of Collective stojke
May this be the year
Of perfect vision
We’ll bathe in the pools
Of a back lit sun
Seis y seis en Bratislava
Shje’s your contact in the square
Out the indoor and thru the Arched door
You made a pass through the Leaded glass
The beach is calm, with minor chords
Ballads sung about the war
Lunar spoils never bigger
Pull the plug unwind the trigger
We’re on love standard time
Clocks are running well behind

Cinnamon Cinder

Said meet me at the Cinnamon Cinder
See you there with my friend Linda
In the back rooms they come to play
Hands in their pockets fear leads the way
Don’t play around with fire now
Might get burned but you won’t know how
Said meet me at the Limbo Shifter
Gonna take a ride on the big rollercoaster
Meet you backstage when the time is right
Unlike those creatures there shift out of sight
Don’t play around with fire now
Might get burned but you won’t know how
Don’t mess around with fire now
Leave the stone unturned and move around
Don’t play around with fire now
Might get burned but you won’t know how
Don’t mess around with fire now

Out Of Our Heads
03:38

|
Take the orders to their leader
It will benefit so many people
Ring a bell across the town
People so curious from all around
Make amends to the teachers
In the trenches with ghostly creatures
Hide and seek is fun to play
When you’ve given up for the day
Things are not what they seem
Woke up in a strange dream
Let me out of this prison
Find a weakness and let me in
Make a pact we cannot keep
Let the sun shine down on me
Force the damn to flow big water
Secrets of a river daughter
Check the window in dim light
The fireflies dance out of sight
Things are not what they seem
Woke up in a strange dream
Let me out of this prison
Find a weakness and let me in
Life your life and fly so free
Let the sun shine down on me
In the morning you’ll feel the glow
When shadows fade the red carpet rolls
Things are not what they seem
Woke up in a strange dream
Let me out of this prison
Find a weakness and let me in

The Endless Summer

Here we go again
One way ticket to Neverland
On the road again
Taking you back to ’66
The piano was drinking
Just like Mick and Keith
Big joint was jumping
Who are those burger thieves?
We’ve come such a long way
We’ve got so far to go
We’ve been thinking of you
Just wanted to let you know
Here we roll again
Cash our ticket and walk away
Sip on the sunshine
In the garage we rock all night
We’ve come such a long way
We’ve got so far to go
We’ve been thinking of you
Wanted to let you know
All you know today
Will never be the same
Live this day today
With a smile on your face
We’ve come such a long way
We’ve got so far to go
We’ve been thinking of you
Just wanted to let you know
We’ve come such a long way
We’ve got so far to go
We’ve been thinking of you
Just wanted to let you know
We’ve come such a long way
