All Gray 02:39
I looked around and it was all white Everything else had changed All the colors vanished from sight Only my thoughts remained In my mind I just need a little bit of sweet sweet time To get to where I’m going I looked around and it was all gray Is it so hard to see The difference between night and day Inside the heart of me And in my mind I just need a little bit of sweet sweet time To get to where I’m going

Gold Bug 02:15
Gold bug can’t even really see it straight Brain of spiders within a golden egg I know every game you’re playing I know every word you’re saying Gold bug find the way again And I’ll come runnin back These days can’t even seem to tie your shoes Your time’s really all you have left to lose But I see many tiny rainbows After every time the rain shows Gold bug tell me where to go And I’ll come runnin back

Warts 02:57
I’ve got a wart no Matter how hard I try It will not leave my Finger I don’t know why Do you believe in heartache Not the ego kind But cause you loved somebody And got left behind I’ve got an ache yeah Maybe I’m sleeping weird Hope I don’t break In pieces from there to here Do you believe in heartache Not the ego kind But cause you loved somebody And got left behind
4.
I don’t know where I am going But you can see how hard I try Although lately I’m not seeing straightly I’m by your side Cause I’m a temporary diamond I’m a lazy limousine Turn me round until you Find a radiant side of me In the morning people say hello You can let them, but you can’t let go Cause I’m a worker of your heartache I’m the memory of your dreams Help me out and I will be waiting to Lay some schemes In the evening people pass you by You can tell them but you can’t tell why If you see me I will treat you kind I’m a loser but I win sometimes
5.
I want to thank you Lord for looking after me I’ve been a stranger and a fool My thoughts are weirder than they’ve any right to be But you’re the voice that keeps it cool It’s not a force of habit It’s just a moment and I’m falling into you Not even sort of magic It’s just a moment and I’m falling into you Can you believe it when I tell you it’s a choice I make to love you every day I really meant it when I said you were the voice That helps me through the cloud of gray

Paper Cup 03:31
Lay me down and help me up I fell into a paper cup Swimming in your dinner drink I cannot move I cannot think Gone gone where have I gone It seems I am destined to wander on Save me from my deepest fears I sat beside a pool of tears Drank till I was out of sight And then I drank some more besides Gone gone where have I gone It seems I am destined to wander on Give me kisses show me love I fell into the sky above Sailing through a starry sea Resigned to drift eternally Gone gone where have I gone It seems I am destined to wander on
7.
Little morning little sunshine Little flower it’ll bloom There is a bright sun hovering Above my little room And it says if you believe me I will tell you what is true You are a great big little man Little darkness little evening Little sky yeah little moon There is is a white cloud hovering Above my little room And it says if you believe me I will tell you what is true You are a great big little man Sweet youth, sweet youth I was only trying to take a bite But then I lost my tooth Sweet youth, sweet youth Now I’m a great big little man
8.
Well I wanna let you know that you never died Your body may have quit but you’re still inside Some fragment of the sky And I know a magic word that can bring you back Then I’ll see you at my house have a heart attack And laugh until I cry Laugh until I cry
