Scrap Truck

just like those scrap trucks that you see
rollin down your alley yeah
pickin up pieces as I go
and then I'll hold low
I'm gettin heavy as I go
but any way that's to go
those things you just don't need
are just right for me
right down your alley (x2)
you're stuck behind me
and the going's slow
they're gonna take all of this trash
then I'll trade it in for cash
they're gonna melt it down
and make somethin beautiful
right down your alley (x2)
you're stuck behind me
and the going's slow
just like those scrap trucks that you see
rollin down your alley yeah
you can't leave nothin out for long
before it's gone

Wasting Away
02:34
|

there's nothiin in the cupboard
there's nothin here to eat
I'm lookin at a test pattern
and there's nothing here to see
the motels are numbered
6,7, and 8
I'm dying out here baby
I'm just wasting away
wasting away (x4)
turn on the phantom power
turn on my phantom limb
it's three in the mornin
I'm at the kettle again
I'm writing you this letter
in invisible ink
that trophy tv
the whole world's starting to shrink
wasting away (x4)
wasting away

Twisting in the Wind
02:32
|
|||
comin around the corner happy time USA
fill in the cracks
paint the walls black
put in a new PA
I know you'll always back me
even if you can't say when
it was a guarantee
but you left me
twistin in the wind
twistin
twistin in the wind (x2)
meanwhile back in Chicago
layin down my weary head
led the purple iPass
above my mind
go back to school
go back to bed
I know the ships are coming
even if I can't say when
it's guaranteed that I will be
twistin in the wind
twistin in the wind
twistin
twistin in the wind (x4)

Work = Reward
03:36
|
|||
stand outside of the company gate
buy my ticket for the lottery
read bout the lives of celebrities
the work is it's own reward (x2)
I could write a song that would make you cry
as dreary as a midwest sky
that you can't escape no matter how you try
the work is it's own reward (x2)
well I've been medning fences
fixing flags
bellyin up imagine this
suckin on candy and opiates
the work is it's own reward (x2)
the work is it's own reward (x2)

if you think of it drop me a line
pull me out of the drink anytime
a girl in a world
where brother's go round
I always felt we were related somehow
you ain't goin nowhere tonight
without one red cent
without one thin line (x2)
let me know when you'll stop chasing the sun
you'll either find it or find that it's gone
but now you got a little jewel at home
a worthy heir to a worthy throne
you ain't goin nowhere tonight
without one red cent
without one thin line (x2)
one red cent without one thin line (x4)

Hurricane Charley
03:04
|
|||
there's a song about the weather
and over lingering doubts
the rain hit hard like a violent cry
man the power went out
heavy objects fly through space
anything that's not nailed down
hurricane Charlie sleeping on your couch (x2)
on a puddle jumper to the keys
as far time as you can get
things look good for a few short hours
then it's turbulence again
you come out on the losing end
when the warm air hits the cold
hurricane Charlie soaked to the bone(x2)
a song about the weather
and cleanin up the mess
what happened yesterday
is gonna come around again
as we watch this bad boy disappear
into the great unknown
hurricane Charlie crying on the phone (x2)
hurricane (x4)

Company Town
03:20
|
|||
I woke up drunk
about two miles from hell
I can't afford the drinks at the company hotel
so I stagger I weaken I climb to my knees
I look out my window and what do I see
the whole wide world
is a company town
sing yourself to sleep (x2)
my daydream ends
as the whistle blows
lifestyles of the poor and unkown
so I hop right into my car
and I drive aimlessly
the smoke from the stacks in the air that I breathe
the whole wide world
is a company town
sing yourself to sleep (x2)
the whole wide world
is a company town
sing yourself to sleep (x2)

In the Gravel Yard
02:51
|
|||
in the gravel yard
with a number for my name
make little rocks out of big rocks all day
oh the work is mighty hard
in the gravel yard
I'll never be a free man so they say
oh lord hear my plea
won't you listen to me
I shot a man I found with my wife
you'd probably do the same so why am I to blame
stuck here for the rest of my life
in the gravel yard
with a number for my name
make little rocks out of big rocks all day
oh the work is mighty hard
in the gravel yard
I'll never be a free man so they say
in the drivin rain
with a fallin chain
my hammer makes a low and mournful sound
it sings a lonesome song
for the one who done me wrong
she's lyin in that cold cold ground
in the gravel yard
with a number for my name
make little rocks out of big rocks all day
oh the work is mighty hard
in the gravel yard
I'll never be a free man so they say
in the gravel yard
with a number for my name
make little rocks out of big rocks all day
oh the work is mighty hard
in the gravel yard
I'll never be a free man so they say

property of the department

dotted line on the lost highway

and this is to inform you that you're past due

Star
03:26
|
|||
there's a gloss on the side of the baby faced story
x marks the spot where the dream up and died
we will not get our due in the pauses of Nashville
through the glass ceiling it's raining inside
last night you felt like a star
last night you felt like a star
cause ain't nobody know who you are
there's a name on the boxes inside a cheap restaurant
would you eat anything just to be on TV
there's already enough cowboy songs to last ten lifetimes
would you do anything to be a long term memory
last night you felt like a star
last night you felt like a star
today nobody knows who you are
last night you felt like a star (x4)

Dying Light
04:23
|
|||
comin down I'm comin down to terminal 3
a guitar and a suitcase on the movin walkway
goin somewhere
I thought I'd never see
a new life and a new identity
oh baby you look gorgeous tonight
oh baby you're the dyin light (x2)
there's no life in this country
there's just money and fear
there's no light or love
that's keepin me here
I'm a different person
than I was back home
down in the catacombs
with a skull and bones
oh baby you look gorgeous tonight
oh baby you're the dyin light (x2)
