1.Perfect Lines

作词:Daniel Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davey Von
Bohlen

I traced all of the letters on all of your letters
I traced all of the letters on all of your letters, love letters

Let's talk about the sound of the phone outside of Texaco
From bell south down to a southern belle

I traced all of the letters on all of your letters
I traced all of the letters on all of your letters, love letters

Let's talk about the sound of the phone outside of Texaco
From bell south down to a southern belle
Let's talk about the sound of the phone outside of Texaco
From bell south down to a southern belle

Let's talk about the sound of the phone outside of Texaco
From bell south down to a southern belle, a southern belle

You never wrote in perfect lines
Which I never wrote you perfect lines, the perfect lines
So why aren't all roads perfect lines?
Why aren't all roads perfect lines?


2.Red & Blue Jeans

作词:Daniel Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davey Von
Bohlen

Nothing feels good like you in red and blue jeans
And your white and night things


3.Make Me a Chevy

作词:Daniel Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davey Von
Bohlen

Make me a Chevy because an old Chevy made me
And a young one makes me a Chevy
Where would I go and how do I explain your body
To the rest of my day

I'm not as good as the interstates are
I just can't take you that far
Maybe Dick Clark and Davey move a car
But not as good as the interstates are

I can't take you that far away
So, stay


4.Pink Chimneys

作词:Daniel Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davey Von
Bohlen

Where's New England in my life?
It's only cold when you sleep alone
And pink chimneys in Maine couldn't keep me away


5.Nothing Feels Good

作词:Daniel Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, David Von
Bohlen

I don't know East Texas from Louisiana
And I don't know Alabama
Or where Atlanta lies tonight
And Indianapolis

Summers in park and recreation pools
And carsick vacations in size eleven
In I'm going to heaven shoes

I don't know God
I don't know anyone or if anything will be all right
Like I don't know Billy Ocean from the ocean floor

I don't own any albums, I don't know anything
I don't go to college anymore
I've got my hands on the one hand
But I don't know where to put them

But on the other hand
I don't know if I'll talk my way out
Of this one tonight


6.The Deep South

作词:Dan Dider, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davey Von Bohlen

In the deep south of heaven, on the wavering line
Where Tennessee will leave just in time
I'm writing it down, it will be different soon
You look amazing there stuck between me and the moon

I know that bridges and houses are learning to fly
Only secretly so we won't know why
And good for them bopboodoobop everyone ends

In the deep blue sea morning there's catfish waiting to be born
They know how it happens, tonight is all to them
And I've written it down in the late, late afternoon
Street names are changing and i, and I will follow suit

I know that bridges and houses are learning to fly
Only secretly so we won't know why
And good for them

So I think, I think that's exciting
And I think that's crazy
Waiting, here in
Here in the deep south

I think that's crazy
Yeah, I think that's crazy
Waiting, here in
Here in the deep south

In the deep south of heaven, on the wavering line
Where Tennessee will leave just in time
I've written it down in the late late afternoon
You look amazing there stuck between me and the moon

So I think, I think that's exciting
And I think that's crazy
Waiting, here in
Here in the deep south

I think that's crazy
And I think that's crazy
Waiting, here in
Here in the deep south

So I think, I think that's exciting
And I think that's crazy
Waiting, here in
Here in the deep south

I think that's crazy
Yeah I think that's crazy
Waiting, here in
Here in the deep south


7.Happy Hour

作词:Daniel Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davey Von
Bohlen

Hey, Hey, where are we living now
From witching to happy hour
Which is hours and hours away from here
And god, all of these ears and eyes
Familiar faces and family ties
Which is ours and ours alone
Where are we living now
Hey J, I'm unraveling
I might be on the next train
Which may or may not come in
And Joann says, 'follow your hands.'
They don't know because they don't remember
Where are we living now


8.Things Just Getting Good

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason P Gnewikow, Scott M Schoenbeck,
David S Von Bohlen

When what I came to say, is said
And the sun sets on my summer career
How September came for Sinatra
Now it's winter then it is a new year

The big bright lights take Manhattan
And I take to Berlin
Tomorrow we all get started
But for tonight I am turning in

When what I came to do is done
And we all feel a holiday cheer
I hear my swan song singing
It is winter then it is a new year

So I follow weathers together
And my best brother
With things just getting good

We're a working title for a really long book
And when you were watching my hands just shook
But if it came too easy
It wouldn't be worth all the time that it took
So I follow weather, just getting good


9.Living Around

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason P Gnewikow, Scott M Schoenbeck,
David S Von Bohlen

I'm losing my voice talking to you about talking to you
Reading your books and wearing your clothes
Nobody knows that they're not mine
I guess that just fits with all this living around

Things finally getting sound
With this place that I've found
It's the end of the world today
You drop a bomb on my bad day
You're the end of the world


10.All Of My Everythings

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason P Gnewikow, Scott M Schoenbeck,
David S Von Bohlen

Dance record from before
I was born on the stereo
Playing last rights
For my late nights

All of my evenings
And all of my every day's
No business in the same place
Coffee, scrambled eggs

Starting our separate ways
Now are separate days
By the time you read this
This house will have changed hands

One more time again
Wherever you are, dialing up friends
On someone else's telephone
In someone else's home

Why did ever we part
And give back our hands?
Nothing but wear
Between all of my everything's


11.Emergency! Emergency!

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason P Gnewikow, Scott M Schoenbeck,
David S Von Bohlen

Sometimes I wake up early to say goodbye
Just in case you don't come back
I know the coffee leaves by car
Because it goes fast really far
Then that's where you are

And soon the room can't tell you were here
And there's dust in my hair
And dusty air has gone crazy
For something late in the year and water everywhere

Sometimes I wake up early to say hello
Tell you everything you already know
So early I start watching the bed
Where we are attacked and we are one

We come all undone when I come around
Some lost and some found
I know you'll be here on the ground when I come around
I'll come around, come around, come around then I'll go around
Very emergency, SOS


12.Letters To The Far Reaches

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

Flickering on, sad to see the season
Come and gone away
My black-eyed friends couldn't stay
I'm afraid

Now I'm left with a mess
I'm way too overdressed for casual guests in time
They've all always got to be leaving
All the long, long times

For sometimes we fight
And I don't treat my stomach right every night
It hurts and I don't know what's worse
The eyes or words

Flickering on, sad to see the season
Come and gone away
My black-eyed friends couldn't stay

An' my black-eyed friends couldn't stay
An' my black-eyed friends couldn't stay


13.Feed The Night

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

Feed the night
With alibis that simplify our lives
And justify our deep ends

We speak in tongues
Keep our conversations off the table
Off the streets are filled with ice

I feel all bone
My heartbeat feeds back makes you crazy
When you are remembering a song

It's so hot
Our clothes just hang on us like we are
In the closet wait impatiently

And we get out
We still need to be remembered

Feed the night
With alibis that simplify our lives
And justify our deep ends

I feel at home
Country feedback makes me crazy
Remembering


14.Suffer Never

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

Hanging around you, turned me upside down
You stole the clock when you left town
There's never any time worn
On the flower of a storm

More inside children with outdoor names
If we suffer never
We won't know if we're out of the woods
All those waters you left me

If there's more, please correct me
The city grid on the window pane

Now the phone keeps ringing
I forgot how to converse
Two weeks full of all sick days

If we suffer never
We won't know if we're out of the woods
We won't know if we are feeling good
She wakes up when I come in to sleep

We park our cars on one spot on the street
I wanted to turn the car into a functioning heart
That we burned the house was just a start
It could be so much better, get out of the weather now

If we suffer never
We won't know if we're out of the woods
We won't know if we are feeling good

If we never suffer
Never turn the house around
Burn the car down
We won't know how


15.Jersey Shore

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason P Gnewikow, Scott M Schoenbeck,
David S Von Bohlen

Bored walking on the boardwalk, New Jersey shore
If I come to New York, can I sleep on your floor?

I've been living out of a suitcase on the motel floor
And running up tabs at the corner store
I'm barely walking on the boardwalk anymore

When summer gets along, your hair gets too long
I'm picking up the habit of drinking long before four

When July is gone, I'll be twenty-four and then not anymore
New Jersey shore, New Jersey shore then not anymore


16.My Life Is At Home

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

I was just thinking
Most of last Wednesday
I hope we're together
From here until doomsday

We could be each other's arms
We'd keep each other free from harm
'Cause when it's all stripped to the bone
My life is at home

Spring cleanin's coming
To amuse the cold weather so
Put away your long johns
All your thick sweaters

And we'll cut off all our winter hair
Sit out on the lawn chairs
And the sun forgets that we're here
We forget our couriers

But all the lukewarm weeks at 60 degrees
Now we're hoping it's humid, show our sunburned knees
'Cause once in a lifetime, once in a while
The sun will shine on me

It's Thursday I'm leavin'
Skip town I'm runnin'
There's cars and new faces
And jokes that aren't funny

But we laugh at them anyway
Do anything just to kill the day
No matter how far that I go
Not so far away

But all the lukewarm weeks at 60 degrees
Now we're hoping it's humid, show our sunburned knees
'Cause once in a lifetime, once in a while
The sun will shine on me

All the lukewarm weeks at 60 degrees
Now we're hoping it's humid, show our sunburned knees
'Cause once in a lifetime, once in a while
The sun will shine on me

All the humid nights parked under street lights
Now my baby's riding shotgun in her knee high tights
She looks like Heaven and I feel like the devil
In my Sunday whites

'Cause once in a while
The sun shines on me


17.Gouge Away

作词:Charles Thompson

Gouge away, you can gouge away
Stay all day if you want to
Missy aggravation, some sacred questions
You stroke my locks, some marijuana if you got some

Gouge away, you can gouge away
Stay all day if you want to
Sleeping on your belly, you break my arms
You spoon my eyes
Been rubbing a bad charm with holy fingers

Gouge away, you can gouge away
Stay all day if you want to
Chained to the pillars, a 3 day party
I break the walls and kill us all with holy fingers

Gouge away, you can gouge away
Stay all day if you want to


18.Become One Anything One Time

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

Wood water, when the shoe don't fit
All the news just has your name on it
And it's an open door when the bricks are laid
But you've got space for something more

You gotta have some faith
When you give up ground, lose the fight
Still toast the day, I'm left with pillow talk
And all I hear is whispering and heavy hearts

Hanging 'round you beat the seasons
You can't keep up but they can't keep you down

Now I'm just happy you stuck around
Yeah, I'm just happy you stuck around
And we're all altogether now

Become one, anything, one time
All of our learned things
Like angel wings, heartstrings
Books parties and tangerines

Up in smoke rings at the end of the day
Oh, Mary could not say nicer things
So it's a curtain call and I can't feel
The blood in my lips move at all

Now I'm just happy you stuck around
Now I'm just happy you stuck around
And we're all altogether now

Hanging 'round you beat the seasons
You can't keep up but they can't keep you down

Yeah, I'm just happy you stuck around
Yeah, I'm just happy you stuck around
Now I'm just happy you stuck around
Yeah, I'm just happy you stuck around

(Become one, anything, one time)
Yeah, I'm just happy you stuck around
(Become one, anything, one time)
Well, I'm just happy you stuck around

(Become one, anything, one time)
I'm just happy you stuck around
Become one, anything, one time


19.Bread And Coffee

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

Drown yourself in bread and coffee
Fast forward, right through the news
We spend weeks just window shopping
What else can we really do? We could be anybody

And every time you take the water
We are too afraid to smile
Our faces turn transparent, paper glass after a while
We see everybody

And it's a long distraction
Between our satisfactions
And any good time should be
Just rolling by

Now the bees are indicators, maybe we should go outside
A fire drill keeps humming
There are floods that change the tide
There's one day for everybody

We are pairs of apple lions
Starved for clothes that we could wear
And long strings of double lookers
Easy listeners everywhere, we could be anybody

And it's a long distraction
Between our better actions
Any good time should be
Just rolling by

We keep a graveyard of ships sunk in glass
The silverware is buried out back

And it's a long distraction
Between our satisfactions
Any good time should be
Just rolling by


20.Say Goodbye Good

作词:Daniel Dider, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

Say goodbye good, hey hey hey
We might not be fooling around today
If we go all the way, hey hey hey
All the ills after us is the songs that we play

Say goodbye good, hey hey hey
All we've got is right now if you're not going my way
My eyes are listening, hey hey hey
We might not mean anything that we'd say, no no way, no way
We might not be fooling around today, no way, no way

Trees have caught fire when your eyes lit up
The season's changed and the movie has stopped
Front lights are out, the curtains are drawn
Now I was before our first days are gone

And at the end of the song, so long
We might not know what we've done so long
We might not know what we've done so long
We might not know what we've done, no no way
We might not be fooling around today

So say goodbye good, hey hey hey
Say goodbye good, hey hey hey
Say goodbye good, hey hey hey
Say everything good, hey hey hey
Say everything good, hey hey hey

Say goodbye good, hey hey hey
Say goodbye good, hey hey hey
Say goodbye good, hey hey hey
Say goodbye good


21.Size Of Your Life

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

All left hands and accidents
Size of your life
I didn't see you coming out
Corner of my eye

Yeah, I've been around before
But this time I don't
Know what's in store

Let off the gas, let the whole day pass
Back of your hand
The stereo hums 'cause it's up too loud
Ran through the night

And yeah, I've been around before
This time I don't
Know what's in store
Now, baby, I don't know what's in store

And yeah, I've been around before
But this time I don't
Know what's in store

And yeah, I've been around before
This time I don't
Know what's in store
Now, baby, I don't know what's in store


22.Stop Playing Guitar

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

So if I had a dime for
Every time I should've
Stopped playing guitar
And put my nose in a book

Well, then my head would be healthy
And my guitar would be dusty
And that just might save me
From a bunch of bad songs

So maybe I'm too polite
Just like good Moses
But just like good manners
We've had enough of them

Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
And now we're moving a little bit slow
Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Another round for my friends
I'll get paid back later
When evening turns midnight
I'll be just getting warm

I know you're hot and you're bothered
Now your skin's going crazy
It's one hundred degrees
And you've got a sweater on

So I'd like to come off
The side of the kitchen
So when this party's ending
I'll be taking your number home

Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
And now we're moving a little bit slow
Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Now were moving a little bit slow

I like books better than
Movies and present tense
And I can keep up with them
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

Stop playing guitar
Stop playing guitar
Stop playing guitar
Stop playing guitar

Stop playing guitar
Stop playing guitar
Stop playing guitar
Stop playing guitar


23.Half Year Sun

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

At the top of the world there is a half-year sun
The water's all froze
And one thousand men old
On the side of the hill there are no wanting eyes

But you're a spectacle a spinning doll
Now the hour is fading but ours is staying
It's all syncopated to your heart's hard heartbeat time
You may never miss a sign

At the base of your skull
I've got a place there still
All my clothes spread out
In a permanent row

Now the hour is fading but ours is staying
It's all syncopated to your hearts hard heartbeat time
We will never not get together, we will never not get too old
The water's all frozen one

And I've got a place there still
And we will not get too old


24.Skips a Beat (Over You)

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason P Gnewikow, Scott M Schoenbeck,
David S Von Bohlen

My girl's car 'round the corner on Clarke
She's in the window as its getting dark
Hope I'll be in there after dark

So wouldn't it be nice
If we could live twice in just one life
And then we'd know what to do

When I'm shaking in my shoes
And my heart skips a beat over you
What to do when I'm shaking in my shoes


25.Happiness Is All the Rage

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason P Gnewikow, Scott M Schoenbeck,
David S Von Bohlen

I got my body and my mind on the same page
And honey now, happiness is all the rage
I got my body and my mind on the same page
And honey now, happiness is all the rage

And we could do more outdoor things
If we weren't so busy getting busy
So doing laundry finally, the first sign of first light
And still there's nothing to wear between us

And I got my body and my mind on the same page
And honey now, happiness is all the rage
I got my body and my mind on the same page
And honey now, happiness is all the rage

And I am so filled with just one girl
My eyes barely open, I can barely read
So this is the end of the past, the first sign of first light
Yeah, now, it's alright between us

I got my body and my mind on the same page
And honey now, happiness is all the rage
I got my body and my mind on the same page
And honey now, happiness is all the rage
It's all the rage

And still there's nothing to wear between us

And happiness is all the rage
Happiness is all the rage
Happiness is all the rage
And happiness is all the rage


26.Wake Up April

作词:Daniel John Dideer, Jason P. Gnewikow, David S. Von Bohlen

Wake up April, it'll be summer soon
And you'll be sipping your morning coffee in the afternoon
Walking slowly because there's nowhere to go
But your heart keeps beating so, so, so

Everyone in the neighborhood
Wishes you well as much as any person could
It's a friendly forever, a forgotten now
So when we don't remember we won't know how

Wake up April it's been one cruel year
And we all feel better knowing that you're back here
You wouldn't believe it, so I might as well lie
But I almost had to say goodbye

So wake up America, now they're setting me free
And I've been the next big thing since I can remember me
But I'd take the light air of permanent care
Before perfect hair and heavy stares, before perfect hair and
heavy stares

There's a break in the choir double wide, we slipped outside
There's a break in the choir double wide, we slipped outside
There's a break in the choir double wide, we slipped outside
There's a break in the choir double wide, we slipped outside

Out the back door, too wide
Out the back door, too wide
Out the back door


27.Why Did We Ever Meet

作词:Daniel Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davey Von
Bohlen

Your hair pinned up in circles
Worn like a widow to second the motion of second nature
Like two rafts knotted and ju-knotted
And still where sound is lost and found
But I fear it's all just comin' back to me

And I fear that it's all just comin' back to
Comin' back to, comin' back to me
Under that threat of sky we lie together
Why care about the weather
It only ends, it ends in darkness

You, you're always, you're always
Dressed and buttoned up
Ba ba ba da ba ba ba ba ba da ba bap
Do do do do do do do do
And you, you're always, you're always
Dressed and buttoned up
Ba ba ba da ba ba ba ba ba da ba bap
Do do do do do do do do

And between nineteen, nineteen, forty
For the tea it will have changed me
Turning from the invading light on my
My naked room, my naked room
Our coffee stains and dusty coughing

You, you're always, you're always
Dressed and buttoned up
Ba ba ba da ba ba ba ba ba da ba bap
Do do do do do do do do
And you, you're always, you're always
Dressed and buttoned up
Ba ba ba da ba ba ba ba ba da ba bap
Do do do do do do do do and you

You, you're always, you're always
Dressed and buttoned up
Ba ba ba da ba ba ba ba ba da ba bap
Do do do do do do do do
And you, you're always, you're always
Dressed and buttoned up
Ba ba ba da ba ba ba ba ba da ba bap
Do do do do do do do do and you


28.A Picture Postcard

作词:Dan Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Schoenbeck, Davy Von Bohlen

Don't forget to kiss me if you're really going to leave
Couldn't you take the second bus home?
Couldn't you just take me with you?

Couldn't you take the second bus home?
If I put my hands to your stomach or put my lips to your hand
Birmingham has gone to motors, motors
Take me home, take me home, take me home

Keep your eyes on the road
On the road, on the road, on the road
And I'm convinced that you're from mars
And I'm convinced that you're from mars


29.I Never Trusted The Russians

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Yeah, I'm eatin' but I'm lose
But I'm losing weight again, again
Yeah, I'm eatin' but I'm lose
But I'm losing weight again, again, again, again

Like I could faint
Like I could faint, faint, faint, fade away
Like I could faint
Like I could faint, faint, faint, fade away


30.Everywhere in Denver

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Your young English eyes on the highways
Climbs and dives, climbs and dives like it's alive
And the black in Indiana is leaving for Atlanta
I wonder if shell ever go anywhere, anywhere with me

From the corner of coffee and fever
Hazel and curry and your long walking worry
You say, it's easier to sleep when the engine beats
And you think, I'm not eating

'Yeah, what have you been reading?'

We talked over Ida and Arkansas
Like the country whispers to nothing near at all
And they put out the lights and I lit up the crickets
They knew, I was taking you out


31.American Girl

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Michael Schoenbeck,
David Von Bohlen

American girl
Your young country world sleeps like promising
And sleep is promising

American girl
Queen radio plays, our slow fills the spaces
We know time is tight but not tonight
That's right, I know


32.Run Down The Waterfall

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

I wish you'd just ask me about Mercury
So I could answer truthfully
Singing startles the night and the night is over
South of the South Dakota border

The moon is hunting you, and I'm hunting you too
It's not as though you can go to Heaven at night
It's not as though you can go in the daylight
It's not as though anything will be all right, all right

So why do you stay alive
When you're left to die?
I swear, I never tried to try
Never tried to run down the waterfall to watch you fall


33.Sea Of Cortez

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

When the motor stops, I can't sleep
There's nothing so quiet as a boat under anchor
And the black amnesias in heaven
Are lighting the Sea of Cortez

All the wishing sounds and kissing sounds
Are all missing sound in a boat alone
Without a spring after winter and a fall over summer
Is there anyone else alive outside?

So vulgar to send these brakes to the bend
On the empty blue side of the moon
Where you broke your body, you kept on wandering
And I'm still listening but your still drowning

You broke your body before I could get to you
The dew soaks the deck like the breeze hits your neck
And it's morning when your hair finds your eyes
Mourning eyes, California can't see the sun rise

We're both fire signs dragging our line's line
Only magic to have a crack in the wire
And California won't see another Sunday
As the poets say, 'The ice will bar the way'


34.Tell Everyone We're Dead

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Michael Schoenbeck,
David Von Bohlen

Caught without people or drink
I don't know what else to think
But I'm going to grow wings and sing
'Amen, I'm checking out'

So withdrawing within the drawing room
Drawing you and remember my memory was a mess
When we'd undress near the dresser together
And you'd take me apart

But then I'd say, 'Storms are born
Really far away somewhere west of LA'
Where birds have kids like crazy
Seagulls and turtledoves

And remember we'd tell everyone to tell everyone we're dead
And right now sugar and water will put me down
That's all right, I know


35.Is This Thing On?

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Delaware are you aware of Air Supply and Television?
Are you still there, is this thing on, am I coming down?
Delaware where are you, where are you from Philadelphia?
Are you aware, are you tonight are you?
(Do you remember the 70's or the 17's?)


36.Mineral Point

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Butterfly kissing you by the river where it started
Sandy strands of dishwater hair
And raspy whispers of cotton-picked fields
Off-white, under dry wind skies

The sun visits you, shorelines undone
Waits on wading ankles in shivering pools

Just moving on, forget me not, dear

God created butterfly kisses to ruin concentration
Land in you warmer than a whisper
Like ivies come, comets break
West turns north, sends you home

The sun is just moving on, forget me not, dear


37.Scenes from Parisian Life

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

The sun comes up a little later
So, you can drink a little longer
I wish I had a dream last night
So half the time you'd be here

I'm on your vine now, so high, I can see Italy


38.Electric Pink

作词:Daniel John Didier, David S Von Bohlen, Jason P Gnewikow,
Scott Michael Schoenbeck

I live on a small street with very small shoes
But in a big house with a big wardrobe
I've got the whole world in my hands
It's a small world after all

And there's not much to say on five bucks a day
And there's no other way so we're just hanging around
For the weekend to come we're all hungry
And dumb for Friday

So yeah, I feel electric pink in the cheeks
We look like animals seven days a week
I feel electric pink in the cheeks
I'm too polite and maybe you're too brief

Please don't press that we dress
High heels and loud shoes are a mess step out with quiet feet
And now I'm pleased to meet
Meeting is so hard to do when you're dead

So yeah, I feel electric pink in the cheeks
We look like animals seven days a week
I feel electric pink in the cheeks
I'm too polite and maybe you're too brief

Between a wink and an earthquake there are conversations
And complications go on, on, and on

I pretend that I understand my hands
And the rest are only a test
To be paid to be pressed when we end
We will be softly kissed

So yeah, I feel electric pink in the cheeks
We look like animals seven days a week
I feel electric pink in the cheeks
I'm too polite and maybe you're too brief

I feel electric pink in the cheeks
We look like animals seven days a week
Yeah what did you think that I would be feeling, electric pink
Yeah yeah yeah what did you think that I would be feeling,
electric pink
Yeah yeah yeah now what did you think that would be feeling,
electric pink
Electric pink

I live on a small street steppin' out with quiet feet


39.Saturday

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

She drank white wine
Makes me want to marry her memories, madly
And she slept across the ocean as we crossed the ocean
And I got cross with the ocean


40.Between Pacific Coasts

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Down the lane, I breathe out loud in half frozen air
And the black amnesias in heaven are lighting a half moon on the
stairs
Down the lane and I bite my lip when I breathe out loud
Wrapped in Japanese paper all the way around

And California can't see the sun rise
Smoke doesn't climb like it lingers
And California can't see the sun rise
Smoke doesn't climb like it lingers
And California

Runs long on a broken, broken lung
Runs long

I breathe out loud in half frozen air
I bite my lip when I breathe out loud
I bite my lip when I breathe out loud, loud, loud, loud, loud


41.Best Looking Boys

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Michael Schoenbeck,
David Von Bohlen

By the way I say your name
I always know, and by the way, I always say your name
So lets talk about anything, you make up drinks, I'll make up
things
And we're never boring, 'cause nobody knows

By the way I say your name
I always know, and by the way, I always say your name
That nothing changes but the words and the weather it's better
So we'll get older and we'll get good

Michael D., David K., best looking boys
Michael D., David K., best looking boys
Michael D., David K., best looking boys go all the way
Home is where they hang out, it's where they go
Best looking boys go all the way


42.Anne You Will Sing

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Now I'm breathing like a boy full of you

Built like houses in the seventies
Born to self-destruct in messages
I dreamt of you and me, we were swimming
Shivering, a little bit shy
We're only seventeen forever for a moment

Now I am breathing like a boy full of you
And I am breathing like a boy full of you
You know you are, you know I am breathing
And I am breathing
Like a boy you know I am, you know I am breathing


43.Heart Of A Broken Story

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Four in the afternoon
I should be up and gone soon
This is the shirt that I'm wearing out
Torn at the elbow from too much football

And one size, too small all around
Stretched shoulder to shoulder
A stretch from soda to soda
And I slept to the radio over the wind in the morning

I'm turned like an elbow, a slumber after parting
Red faced from too much sun in too many summers
And your state fair mirror of John Taylor saw the whole thing


44.E. Texas Ave.

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Your house chased smells of sweets and cakes
Strolled down around the bend
After rain, rising, springing, aspiring to be a hill
I'd hang my hat in Hartford union

Strolling down the way to River Park
Around the bend
Like gentle stemmed flowers we bloomed
Where we planted, so seasonal like sand, I'd hang my head in


45.Strictly Television

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Michael Schoenbeck,
David Von Bohlen

The greatest favorites, Willie and Max McGee
A brewer killer and a touchdown against the Chiefs
It's not my memory, it's everyone I could not be
I'm living vicariously on better authority

So isn't it absurd beginning the world on strictly television
I name the losses I lose the names, I talk in circles
The world is round the world is coming around
The world is round, I talk in circles


46.A Broken Tenor

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Red, blue, where are you tonight?
You say, everything's just right
You say, everything's just right

I live on a dead-end street where men and women meet
The country's really far from me

We need seasons universal
The seasons universal
Why are you still surprised
By a quarter of gin and a quarter scotch
A quiet airplane and a half-hour off the clock

Where are you? Where are you?
Your hair knows, your hair knows

Your hair knows the top of your T-shirt
The top of your T-shirt
And your back was up in arms about it

But I'm not as good as the inner states are
Not as good as the inner states
I can't take you that far
And I just can't take you that far

And I'm not as good as the inner states are
As the inner states are
I just can't take you that far

Into a Polish town, into a German town
A German town
And in time with Irish round
And he thinks you're young and every Russian girl is you

Into a Polish town, into a German town
A German town, in time do you know it's round, round, round
Did he hear? Do you hear
Hear, hear, hear, hear, hear

Red, blue, where are you tonight?
Where are you and where are you tonight?


47.Red Paint

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

I was sad enough last Saturday
I woke you to talk but you didn't have much to say
You came to, to two cherry cokes, came to, to coke

In the morning, when the wind is still warm
And the rivers still coming and following
The Astor hotel is black in the windows
Black in the hall, since we left separately

A country letter, straight from a widow, come in the nighttime
To the back porch, throw rocks at my window
And climb the terrace to the landing
This house built cleverly for you and me
(You sound like young love)


48.Make Me a Mixtape

作词:Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow, Scott Michael Schoenbeck,
David Von Bohlen

You reminded me that I would never be twenty-two
Listening to the alarm, waking up south of north avenue
My skin is gonna wonder what
My skin is gonna wonder what I'm doing now
And my skin is gonna wonder
My skin is gonna wonder what I'm doing now

So write me a letter and tell me where you are
How to get there and how long
That it takes to tape me some songs

Make me a mixtape something old and something new
Something I said or that we did, that reminds me of you
Make me a mixtape that makes me yours

My skin is gonna wonder what
My skin is gonna wonder what I'm doing now
My skin is gonna wonder
My skin is gonna wonder what I'm doing now

So write me a letter and tell me where you are
How to get there and how long
That it takes to tape me some songs

Make me a mixtape something old and something new
Something I said or that we did, that reminds me of you
Make me a mixtape that makes me yours

Make me a mixtape, don't leave out Husker Du
Put something on that The Cars did in 1982
Make me a mixtape that brings me closer to you
Make me a mixtape that brings me closer to you

Make me a mixtape, don't leave out Husker Du
Put something on that The Cars did in 1982
Put on the 'round, the 'round, the 'round, the 'round you too
Make me a mixtape that brings me closer to you


49.Miette

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark

Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark

Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark

Some nights my room's dark
Some nights my room's dark


50.The Heart of a Broken Story

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

Four in the afternoon
I should be up and gone soon
This is the shirt
That I'm wearing out

Torn at the elbow
From too much football
And one size too small
All around

Stretched shoulder to shoulder
A stretch from soda to soda
And I slept to the radio
Over the wind in the morning

I'm turned like an elbow
A slumber after parting
Red faced from too much sun
In too many summers

And your state fair mirror of John Taylor
Saw the whole thing


51.Watertown Plank

作词:Scott Thomas Beschta, Daniel John Didier, Jason Gnewikow,
David Von Bohlen

There will be ice cream for naked boys swimming in kettles,
diving in
Tornado country beat Allen lumber into mud ponds, sinking in
My ears are ringing, I keep hearing summer setting
I keep hearing, my ears ringing

I want to live in your house, I want to live in your room
I want to sleep in your bed, this summer, afraid
Like fire, you never really know what's there


52.Somebody's Done For

Summer sets on summertime
I'm getting wetter to wed you, forever
Falsetto keeps time, belated
I won't die so I don't forget
Until the porch light goes down
And the porch swing slows down


53.Get On The Floor

There's no one to save with your albums
So come on, baby, take off your headphones
No more guitar songs
It's just nervous energy you're sending to me

We go dancing and I feel paranoid
I get on the floor and I just freak out
Now I need someone that'll slow me down
And pick me up

We might be wrecked but it's just the principle
We choose our sides, we raise our right minds
We spend our time, we feel alright

In a second life, I'd never become a singer
They've all gone mad, sad and angry
If it ended tonight I'd consider myself lucky and leave

We might be wrecked but it's just the principle
We choose our sides we raise our right minds
We spend our time we feel alright

I feel paranoid, I get on the floor and I just freak out
