Flip a coin, oh, heads up or tails?
Either way, I just might fail
I see that dead end coming up ahead,
Maybe I better just stay in bed...
I must have been in such a rut,
Oh, whatever it was, I spilled my guts to her
She didn't have a word for me,
Well, that's just the story of my life.
I got a few more chapters left to write
Before I can go and call it a night
I'm sitting here wondering who's gonna break my heart tonight
I won't go down, not without a fight
If I see you in the middle of that great big wide, ocean blue
You know I'll begin the motions to swim my way back to you
You and me, we can go up to the treetops of my mind
You know I'll leave the ladder down
If you wanna climb on up next time.
I got a few more chapters left to write
Before I can go and call it a night
I'm sitting here wondering who's gonna break my heart tonight
Day after day, time after time.
Day after day, time after time
Day after day, time after time
Oh I'm sitting here wondering who's gonna break my heart tonight
Well, I won't go down, not without a fight
Oh I'm sitting here wondering who's gonna break my heart tonight
Well, I won't go down, not without a fight
Oh well I won't go down, not without a fight.

Never Have I Ever

Pack some smokes, I'll pack some jokes
I'll pack me something that'll get me along
That road, that road,
Ooh that jealous road
How'd I go so long?
Yahoo!
Well, never have I ever seen her favorite eastern skies
Never have I ever been to the other side
Never have I ever seen her favorite eastern skies
Never have I ever been to the other side
Take a sip, take a rip
Stay if you like, it ain't no crime
Don't even trip, mama, or leave a quip
About how you just ain't got the time
Yahoo!
Well, never have I ever seen her favorite eastern skies
Never have I ever been to the other side
Never have I ever seen her favorite eastern skies
Never have I ever been to the other side
Well, never have I ever seen her favorite eastern skies
Never have I ever been to the other side

Just for Tonight

I've done some things I'm not exactly proud of
I'm still learning 'bout this thing called love
Scaled up to nothing but chalk in the rain
Finding out there's more than just my name
As I grow a little older
I find a grow a little bolder
I found the guts, I finally told her
But I ain't the one who gets to hold her.
Passing distraction was my great attraction, I know
Pour me a bullet, straight down my gullet it goes.
Raise your glass, let's make a toast
To all the ghosts we've ever known
As I grow a little older
I find I grow a little bolder
I found the guts, I finally told her
But I ain't the one who gets to hold her
As I grow a little older
I find I grow a little bolder
I found the guts, I finally told her
But I ain't the one
(No, you ain't the one)
who gets to hold her
(Who gets to hold me)
No, it ain't my arm
(No , it ain't your arm)
Around her shoulder
(It never will be)

Ohh, da da do
It started out when I was a kid
Never paid attention to the mess I hid
Things won't be the same,
I know a change gonna come
I know the flow don't go like it used to
But I refuse to lose to the change in current
Oh, watch out for that torrent
The angels came and gave me my name
They said let's go outside
we're playing your favorite game, Red Rover
Calling Bossman over
(Bossman Nova)
Honestly, if it were up to me,
I'd rather stay inside, let me hide,
Let me live my life...Let me off this ride!

It's too early
Feel the sunshine on your face
And everything is in its place today
There's a cloud above your head
And I've been known to stay in bed
Too long.
Keep this melody with you and forget
all the things you're supposed to do;
Sometimes the only way to keep on living
is to let life live for you.
These days, these days
Are ones that I won't miss
I'm safe, I'm safe
In this early morning bliss
Wipe the sleep from your eyes
Or don't
The day is yours to decide
Walk with me in my stride
I hope my eyes
Up in the sky
Won't make us slow
Do you take your tea with cream?
I don't imagine so, but here you go -
I have it if you like.
Sit here and sip it slow
Take a moment, don't you know;
It's easy.
These days, these days...
These days, these days
Are ones that I won't miss
I'll fake, I'll fake
I'm not tired even though
you see right through this
These days, These days
are ones that I won't miss
I'm safe, I'm safe in this early
Morning bliss
It's too early.

American Trashbird Monterey, California
American Trashbird is an arrangement of familiar faces in the Monterey, California music scene. The music is pure and understated; somewhere between the quaint seaside villas and the middle-American ghost town dive bars. Recycling forgotten refuse from the bins of blues rock, the richness of roots music, and some liberties with Latin beats. ... more
