Time and Space
He said show up wearing black or white
I looked at my clothes and it seemed
Ahhh, they were all black
They carried my clothes in coffins
You said yeah, put them in the closet
Oooh, time, oh, space
He wound a silver thread around my neck
I looked around but ahhh
Land sakes!
They bought all their oranges from Florida
You said just put them in the closet
Oooh, time, oh, space
He brought a lot of phony eyebrow pencils
I hid behind an electric fence
Oh they brought all the jellyfish from Ireland
Ireland
You said ah, just put ’em you know where
In the closet, that’s where
In the closet
Oooh, time, oh, space
He said show up beat up
Wearing black or white
I looked at my clothes, they were all, all black
They carried in my clothes on coffins
Ahh, you just said put ’em in the closet
Oooh, time, oh, space

The Cat That Walked From Shelbyville
For today I’ll smoke a cigar
For today I’ll play your guitar
For today I’ll be real nice
For today I’ll cut you thrice
For today I’ll cup your eyes
For today make no disguise
There’s a blanket for your doctor
There’s a full-fledged man o’ war
There’s an ink spot on your jersey
And scuff marks on your floor
For today you smoked a cigar
For today you felt real cool
For today you wore a blue shirt
For today you wore some old brown shoes

Quinn Boys II
Did you ever go down to see the Quinn boys?
When I walked outta there I went awwwww!
Meet you in the Bowery
Goodbye Beacon Hill
Hello misfortune, I’ve got time to kill
Time to kill, I’ve got time to kill
Spend all of my days roaming all of the ways
Deliver me and see the sun, see the moon in dark June
Kiss the sand and ocean salt
Take my brother by the hand
It’s you, and I demand (I the man?)


 

The Way That You Act
As a matter of fact
It’s the way that you act
As a matter of well (where?)
It’s customary
It was a real pie
I got it all in the eye
My friend Dusty she told me
She wanted to hold me
I laughed to myself
It’s all on a shelf
It burns and I smoke it
These words (?) that I choke it
Finally he cried louder
I wanna be out-ah [repeat]

I Know The Times
I know that the time
We spent together
Weren’t always meant to be
Oh the voices outside that we heard so clearly
Weren’t meant for us to hear
So it’s true I was with you
With you an everlasting moment
Grew to be
Listen to the other side of life
Listen, don’t turn back the tide of life
If I should go and try to find
The only thing that’s on my mind
Each and every day I dream a dream
In which I don’t return
But I can never feel the threat
No never feel a threat of losing
Anything I get for free
So listen to the other side of life
Listen, don’t turn back the tide of life

When the Telephone Melts
When the telephone melts
And it’s still ringing your name
When your shoes got holes
And the sidewalk’s not the same
And you’re falling down
Then you can think about your mother
Yes, and you can think about your friends
But you can’t blame me for not being around
You know I told you long ago
Before you grew so old
That I wasn’t made for claws falling on my face
I say you knew it was a jungle
And I was a man, had a place to go
If you can’t go with me
Then I just don’t know
But I’ve thought about your humor
When you laughed in my face
You know I didn’t mind
When you stood on my hand
And then I turned the tables around
I thought it just another day
I thought you saw it my way
But oh, to my surprise
There’s a difference in your eyes
And I thought it hard to find you
Say you wandered astray
Say you think you’ll find a way
But you can joke about me baby
Yeah, you can say my name in vain
Say my name in vain

War Dance
It’s all goin’ to the war path
I swear I must be part Indian
Ridin’ to a war path
Move up the warpath
Dance of death
Run around the red fire
Thump thump thump thump
War dance all night long
War dance all night long
War dance all night long
Sun give us the strength to live
Wind bring our path back home
Oh moon, give us stealth
Oh moon, flow like their blood
Oh rain, flow like their blood
At the pierce of our spear
At the pierce of our spear
