S.O.L-S.O.S
Waitin'...wantin'
Down in my old neighborhood I'm hauntin'
All the old cantinas and places of worship
Back lot cop spots, oh it's nice to see ya
Pawnin'...hockin' in my mid-life rockin'
You say, "I dunno how ya do it...all of that rejection...can you see your gray hair in your reflection?"
Twenty-seven to forty-one that's when most people get it done
I was a grasshopper in the sun...livin' life on wheels
Now we're here and I must confess I'm S.O.L. you're S.O.S.
All tangled up in your party dress lookin' wobbly on those heels....
Waitin'...wantin'

I was a grasshopper in the sun...livin' life on wheels
Now we're here and I must confess I'm S.O.L. you're S.O.S.
All tangled up in your party dress lookin' wobbly on those heels....

You're an onomatopoeia
You're an evil palindrome
You mowed down the parking meter
Cause you call the world your own
You blame everyone for everything
The fault is your and yours alone
You're an onomatopoeia
You're an evil palindrome
Spray tan ampersand somethin' to believe in
I spy a little guy, flick him off my shoulder
Spray tan ampersand somethin' to believe in
Champion of the universe...step aside me first
You're an onomatopoeia
You're an evil palindrome
You sail the seven seas
Like an ancient mariner poem
You tell everybody everywhere
That they're livin' wrong
You're an onomatopoeia
You're an evil palindrome
Spray tan ampersand somethin' to believe in
I spy a little guy bellying cross the border
Spray tan Uncle Sam somethin' to believe in
Champion of the universe...step aside me first
Spray tan ampersand somethin' to believe in
I spy a little guy, flick him off my shoulder
Spray tan ampersand somethin' to believe in
I spot a little guy bellying cross the border
Spray tan Uncle Sam somethin' to believe in
Saber rattle, herd the cattle, everybody get down
Spray tan ampersand somethin' to believe in
Champion of the universe...step aside me first

Off the Stairway
Bless this house...
And all who come through....
Messin' about in your corner room
Bless this mess...
Hangin' on the wall
Bathroom's on the left as you walk down the hall
Thinking into a void staring up at all the stars talking to you
All my faith is gone, standing on the lawn wondering what to do
About what is you...
Or what is true...
Or what is is....
Bless your heart...
Wherever it is headin'
Remembering when....
We pissed off the stairway to heaven......

Haven't Signed the Papers
Well, it took a while to find out who you are
Wasn't till you took up with that 80's movie star
You jumped into his '65 Corvette
Still I haven't signed the papers yet...
Shrink says I just love the punishment
Says I'm always buying shoes from you made out of cement
My next wife I'll most surely thoroughly vet
Still I haven't signed the papers yet
I see now that you're pregnant and moved on
Tell me when's the blessed due date of your devil spawn?
I'm starting my new life out with a pet
Still I haven't signed the papers yet
No more drunken dialing with a fifth....
Resentments are like rusty knives we cut ourselves with
The time has come to forgive and forget
Still I haven't signed 'em...
Not sure I can find 'em...
I think they are behind some good sense I have to get
Still I haven't signed the papers yet...

Born by the side of the road
'Twas the morning of our lives
Learned how to speak in code
to shroud our monkeyshines
You know we never knew better
And we never wanted to...
Now we've fallen thru....
Raised on "I don't care"
Makes life an easy go
Dad says, "life's unfair...
and it's better that you know
that there's no free lunches
only heartache and punches
that you get used to...."
Now we've fallen thru
Heaven Forfend
Now we've fallen thru....
While you were out, I was in
By your drowning I could swim
You came up and I was gone
and it all went fuckin' wrong...
Now we've fallen thru
Heaven forfend
Now we've fallen thru...
Rub my chest with broken glass
Just to feel the sting
Of each and every gasp
When I am born again
you know we never knew better
And we never wanted to...
Now we've fallen thru
Heaven forfend
Now we've fallen thru....
