Funny Thing 03:09
IT'S A FUNNY THING IT'S A FUNNY THING IT'S A FUNNY THING WHEN WE DON'T GET ALONG Life went soft Like a swivel seat I took a shot from the rum gun So somehow I could think It was like a three door tank A port for everyone The therapist, priest and jesus Now I'm under the sun If you're loving my new stuff Then we should dance and drink This is the time for some surreal danger

No one's playing the dangerous games You see the snow is the summer rain Was it Alice at the last parade or Calamity Jane She's the kind of girl with charge in her head About the tight she took the rebound Was it Mary not quite addressed or Calamity Jane With the kind of look that makes you dead Hey you're a pine living in the ground Was it Lesley in an Ariel dress or Calamity Jane No one's playing the dangerous games You see the snow is the summer rain Was it Alice at the last parade or Calamity Jane

Let It In 04:03
I'm never going to make you go out I'll let you in When your life is full of strangers You see a friend Never going to make you go out I'll take you in Life is full of wonders You need a friend You see I'm never going to make you go out I'll take you in When your life gets hard and times get dark I'll take you in You see life sometimes can heal you just fine You've got to let it in You see life sometimes can heal you sometimes You've got to let it in Life sometimes can heal you sometimes You've got to let it in

Glass Cat 02:50
LOOK UP There's a light in the sky There's a lot of my time That's going to feel like mine LOOK DOWN It's a half glass of wine CHORUS: Glass Cat Sometimes a heart can break like that LOOK UP Yeah that fast... I can't mine my own gold A broken glass cat can't be sold To even Jesus George or Jane Sure there are some problems I'm not sure I'm going to solve them But they're calling my name And my hands are shaking And when I'm seeing stars That really aren't all there Let's say they are LOOK DOWN They've got to be there Friends after midnight

I Feel Fangs 03:46
I'm feeling magical It's not a false feeling like I had before Like a feeling that I had before I'm feeling magical SOMETIMES I FEEL FANGS LIKE THE SHADOW OF A SHADOW OF A BURNING FLAME REACTION IS JUST THAT THING LIKE THE SHADOW OF A FLAME BURNS LIGHT The sun and the moon and stars Are all in my drink The evening sky is waiting for me Instant reaction is just that thing It's all over the streets Like the shadow of a flame that burns at night Trick or Treat Sometimes I see Stars When we're somewhere between the bedroom and mars
8.
Low Light 03:34
Caught up to what's left of you today You didn't have much of anything to say Caught up to the rest of you today You didn't have much of anything to say EVEN WHEN YOU'RE LOW LIGHT THEN YOU'RE SHINING JUST LIKE ME It's sad to think that the therapist would say It's time to spend some valued time away It's sad to think our good friends had to say It's time to spend some valued time away EVEN WHEN YOU'RE LOW LIGHT THEN YOU'RE SHINING JUST LIKE ME
