I dropped by to ask her why But you can't ask Why a bird must fly Ooh Ooh-ooh Oooh I know it must be a sin When these dark clouds wander in But you can't teach a dog new tricks He gonna scratch till it don't itch Hung my head down to the ground I hit the road But couldn't leave this town No tell motel but no sleep Toss and turn Rewind and repeat Freedom tastes like dust The price is pain no matter what Take your shot Or die a thousand cuts

I'm going to the Caribbean I'm going to the land of sun Gonna stop my shivering Gonna have me some fun I'm gonna smoke cigars I'm gonna drink some rum Gonna stroll along the beach To the beat of my own drum I'm going to the Caribbean I'm going to the land of sun Gonna stop my shivering Gonna have me some fun There's ice on the powerlines Along the snow packed streets I'm bundled up so thick I'm a frozen mummy freak I'm going to the Caribbean I'm going to the land of sun Gonna stop my shivering Gonna have me some fun Can't feel my hands Can't feel my nose And don't talk about my feet And in the morning When I rise I haven't got no heat I'm going to the Caribbean I'm going to the land of sun Gonna stop my shivering Gonna have me some fun I'm pale as a ghost Look what Mother Nature done A week without no power Has got me on the run I'm going to the Caribbean I'm going to the land of sun Gonna stop my shivering Yeah I'm going to have some fun The days are short The nights are long And my nose keeps on running I've tried to ski I've tried to skate I just need some sunning I gotta get away Gotta book a cruise Gotta find some sun Tired of living in igloos Give me some relief please

I've had a spot of trouble Yeah there's been a little strife I am pulled here and there I've got an obligated life It's like I'm caught in a thicket With thorns all around So I try not to move Not to make a single sound Oooooh to be A free man A free man Got the weight of expectations Squeezing out my breath So I try to find some solace By seeking little deaths But the answers can't be found In a little black dress Or on a mountain top Or in some sacred text I see the prison bars But the keys are in my hand Am I incarcerated Or the jailor man? Well, no one's here to tell you It's for you to figure out Are you gonna take the risk Or will you stay devout?

A Thousand Shades of Blue Here we are A thousand shades of blue I've got my shades And so do you We've got to rise up From this ocean blue Swim with the dolphins Beneath a pale blue moon Ohhhhhhh Here we are A thousand shades of blue You've got your faves And I do too We orbit round This blue globe In our little capsules Doing what we're told Ohhhhh Here we are A thousand shades of blue The colours of the open sky And the great seas too Check the periscope Of our submarine All those sunny people In our deep blue dream Sometimes I manage To break through Taste all those pretty colours All those other hues But it can't last No matter what I do I just sink down In this ocean blue Oh, what will we do Deep within us A thousand shades of blue

Kissing caramello on the rockefeller square Met the kangamonga man who stopped to give a stare Careful there young fellow in case you sprain your lips Watch out for the rattle snakes/they're sure to sink your ship The pick up from the stick up hold the tools of the trade The dudes of Deuteronomy died on the esplanade The pretty porno princess likes to think she has no shame The mandibles of canibals bite harder when there's pain The kings and queens of zanzibar let loose upon the land The skinny grinning guru had a transcendental plan The distinction of extinction escapes the last one left And When they pick your pocket call it taxes stead of theft I don't give a shit I don't give a shit I don't give a shit You just gotta know when it's time to quit The domesticated tiger kept in ball and chains It was all rather shocking when he used his claws and fangs The video went viral but no one can explain How all the guts and gore can never leave a stain Both the judge and the jury jumped at the chance It was all circumstantial that the boil met the lance The waitress in the witness box gave them all a wink And in the power corridors things began to stink All the sexy secrets soon began to leak And the public clamoured for just a little peek In the helicopters the captains placed their bets For the Kangamonga man it was the final step I don't give a shit I don't give a shit I don't give a shit You just gotta know when it's time to quit The politician and mortician very different takes When the half baked polynesian burst the chocolate cake The melancholic alcholic playing minor chords Be sure to buy everything you never could afford The copious confetti rained down upon their heads But the IRS ensured they were truly bled The comedy of errors had many episodes Left me wishing for a gangster calling Al Capone The chaplain's in the cathouse checking out the nurse The exchequor dips his pecker in the public purse The constellation of abrasions always have a cost But the gawkers and sleepwalkers are always at a loss I don't give a shit I don't give a shit I don't give a shit You just gotta know when it's time to quit

Set Your Phaser On To Stun Come along now little one Set your phaser on to stun Something's lurking in your mind But if you kill it it's a crime Jump on down the rabbit hole What does the mad hatter know The sharpened senses of the blind The power of the open mind. It's nourished now it's really fed Off to school to kill it dead Or ditch the classes for some fun Set your phaser on to stun

You Got To Be Free I've been lost in the desert/ I've been lost without rain I've been tossed in the garbage/ And I've been tosssed in the flames I've been kicked to the curb/ And punched in the head Listened to lies /And believed what I read I've been thrown to the wolves/And sold for a song I've been brought to my knees/ And told to stay strong I won't swallow your shit/ Or just play along I won't say you're right/ When I know that your wrong Chorus Gonna live how I want and make my own way I won't choke it down and pretend it's okay Ain't nobody nowhere got nothing on me See the Beatles were right - you got to be free They say that pride precedeth the fall/ They say you can't make it over the wall But maybe it pays not to listen too close You can grasp at the wisps or give up the ghost I've been washed in the water and bathed in the blood I've been flung in the river and slung with the mud I've been at my best and seen at my worst Blessed by a fool and stained with this curse Down in the trenches here comes the gas If I'm not the first I might be the last Don't matter how long don't matter how fast Got my eye on the future and not on the past Chorus Gonna live how I want and make my own way I won't choke it down and pretend it's okay Ain't nobody nowhere got nothing on me See the Beatles were right - you got to be free Got a tat to remind me and one to forget Got a drug to define me and one to reject Up on the scoreboard you'll see my name I'm the one with the zero running from shame I am the sinner who casts the first stone The prodigal child who can never come home See the garden was never half what it seemed Some wormy fruit and a snake in a tree I've slipped in the back and put on a front I've acted the part and did my own stunts I've suffered a flood and been left with a thirst And I've led with my heart that's been the worst Chorus Gonna live how I want and make my own way I won't choke it down and pretend it's okay Ain't nobody nowhere got nothing on me See the Beatles were right - you got to be free
