1.Love Is Good
She was just a lonely girl
But i didn't know if i should try
She was just a lonely girl
But i didn't know just which way she'd fly
Over by the corner now she stands
Cornered by the angels of her many plans
She was just the saddest girl
From that sad old american town
Staring at the empty stage
To see some ego tripping rock 'n' roll band
Over by the corner now she stands
Cornered by the angels of her many plans
Chorus
Love is good love is sweet
Lover hold my hand
Love is good love is sweet
Lover hold my hand
Solo
She was just a lonely girl
But i didn't know if i should try
She was just a lonely girl
But i didn't know just which way she'd fly
Chorus
2.Havana Bound
I was encased in an aircraft
Feeling so sick i couldn't say
When the cat next to me
Said let's take it down to cuba way
Well his manner wasn't nice
But his hand grenades looked very mean
And the luger down his trousers
Well that was twice as obscene
When we touched down in cuba
The temp was a 105~
Though the cantenna was closed
Even i was glad to be alive
As for two weeks in miami
I sussed then that they were blown
Dr. fidel wasn't home
So they showed us where the sugar was grown
Chorus
Havana bound hi-jacked by some joker
Took me down to cuba
Where the grass was green
Solo
Well the passport man came up to me
And he really looked sly
Well he chalked on my valise
And then the cat let me by
Well i didn't mean to immigrate here
I told him all so quiet
But he gave me my visa
But then he wanted me to buy it
Chorus
3.Peter
So nice to see after long years of marriage
A couple can still be in love
Through all the winters and hard times and troubles
With faith in each other and infinite love
For 15 long years they waited for children
Then late in 1951
Caesarean birth at the hour of sunset
The couple were blessed with a fair headed son
4.Rip Off Train
Young man made it to the city
Searching through the wet streets
Looking for a rock 'n' roll band
Caught the rip off train to freedom
A line of agents holding out their hand
Work your arses off forever
Midnight highways really bring you down
But you're there and you're working
So don't complain so many miss the train
Chorus
Find a sound lay it down
They say it's underground
Starts to sell do it well
But you never can tell
Now the young man's star shines brightly
Breaking hearts his records in the charts
Finds it hard to freak twice nightly
Falls in love the hardest fall of all
Chorus
He was just a lonely boy
A very well known clown
He was just a lonely boy and down
Chorus
5.Over The Moon
There's a pain i cannot kill
And i guess i never will
Bluebird of love has knocked me down
Sang her songs then left town
Oh the lady sang so sweet
Had the kids up on her feet
Playing the town hall she took her bow
Left me this letter i'm reading now
Chorus
I was over the moon but my
Poor heart came back soon
There was only a rainbow left to see
Left to see
Oh she said it gets so tough
Airline schedules can be rough
Wanted to stay here and live with me
One more show and she was free
So i waited here at home
Played some stills and got myself stoned
And as i lay in that empty bed
Bluebird of love flew above my head
Chorus
Stay with me stay with me
Lay your head upon my shoulder
Chorus
6.Religions Dead
When they left you on tobacco road
The piggies they really left you there for dead
Do you really greet the morning
With your eyes red
And do people pick your body now for lead
Pick yourself just one more seat
And sit yourself right down
Rest assured some jack here must know
I just can't stop bleeding
Resurrection was so long ago
Chorus
All the churches have fallen
They've pulled them on their heads
There are no jesus left
And all religions dead
Solo
Pick yourself just one more seat
And sit yourself down
Rest assured some jack ass must know
I just can't seem to stop this bleeding
Resurrection was so long ago
Chorus
7.Country Road
Chorus
Tired and warm somebody near you
Tired and cold someone far away
Turn your head shadows are falling
Turn your head see the new day
Country road it gets so hard
Many winters since i went away
Now i find myself without the sun
You know we both went through it
If only we hadn't blew it
Chorus
Solo
Country mile it grows so hard
Grass seems taller since i went away
Now i find myself without the sun
You know we both went through it
If only we hadn't blew it
Chorus
8.Allnight Sailor
Allnight sailor poor man failure
Join one line there's no other
Cement mixer backroom fixer join one line
Theres's no other
I've been through this town i think i've stayed too long
There's some truth in what i say
Even though it's getting late i must be moving on
I can't stand vampire day
You whose hand shakes witness stand takes
Save yourself forget your brothers
Heroes die here bombers fly here
Killing one to save another
Solo
Allnight sailor poor man failure
Join one line there's no other
Heroes die here bombers fly here
Killing one to save another
9.Onion Soup
I've got onions in my soup
I've got zebra in my zoo
I've got airplanes in my sky
Without you i will die
Chorus
Everybody says you're leaving
If you do you know it'll surely break my heart
I've got bad breath in the morning
I've got shepherd's pie red sky warning
I've got pictures on my wall
Without you i'm so small
Chorus
Everybody says your leaving
If you do you know you'll surely break my heart
Foolishly i still go on believing
As the sun paints crazy patterns on the park
Solo
I've got onions in my soup
I've got tobbies up my snoop
I've got airplanes in my sky
Without you i will die
Chorus
10.Another Bowl?
