Radio Nowhere
I was tryin' to find my way home
But all I heard was a drone
Bouncing off a satellite
Crushin' the last lone American night
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
I was spinnin' 'round a dead dial
Just another lost number in a file
Dancin' down a dark hole
Just searchin' for a world with some soul
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?
I just want to hear some rhythm
I just want to hear some rhythm
I just want to hear some rhythm
I just want to hear some rhythm
I want a thousand guitars
I want pounding drums
I want a million different voices speaking in tongues
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?
I was driving through the misty rain
Yeah searchin' for a mystery train
Boppin' through the wild blue
Tryin' to make a connection with you
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?
I just want to feel some rhythm
I just want to feel some rhythm
I just want to feel your rhythm
I just want to feel your rhythm

You'll Be Comin' Down
White roses and misty blue eyes
Red mornin's and nothin' but grey skies
A cup of coffee, your heart shot clean through
Jacket you bought me gone dazy grey-blue
You're smilin' now but you'll find out
They'll use you up and spit you out now
Your head's spinnin' in diamonds and clouds
But pretty soon it turns out
You'll be comin' down now baby
You'll be comin' down
What goes around it comes around and
You'll be comin' down
Easy street and cruel luck and true lies
Smile's as sad as those dusky blue skies
A silver plate of pearls my golden child
It's all yours at least for a little while
You'll be fine long as your pretty face holds out
Then it's gonna get pretty cold out
Endless streams of stars shootin' by
You got your hopes on high
You'll be comin' down now baby
You'll be comin' down
What goes around it comes around and
You'll be comin' down
For a while you'll go sparklin' by
Just another pretty thing on high...
Like a thief on Sunday mornin'
It all falls apart with no warnin'
Satin sky's gone candy-apple green
The crushed metal of your little flyin' machine
You'll be comin' down now baby
You'll be comin' down
What goes around it comes around and
You'll be comin' down

Livin' in the Future
A letter come blowin' in
On an ill wind
Somethin' bout me and you
Never seein' one another again
And what I knew had come
Stood I struck deaf and dumb
Like when we kissed
That taste of blood on your tongue
Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet
Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet
Woke up election day
Skies gone clouded and shades of grey
Beneath the dirty sun
I whistle my time away
Then just about sun down
You come walkin' through town
Your boot heels clickin' like
The barrel of a pistol spinnin' round
Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet
The earth it gave away
This hero's tortured sun
I opened up my heart to you
It got all damaged and all done
My ship liberty sailed away
On a bloody red horizon
The groundskeeper opened the gates
And let the wild dogs run
Alone I limp through town
A lost cowboy at sundown
Got my monkey on a leash
Got my ear tuned to the ground
My faith's been torn asunder
Tell me is that rollin' thunder
Or just the sinkin' sound
Of somewhere I'm just goin under
Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na

Your Own Worst Enemy
You can't sleep at night
Vou can't dream your dream
Your fingerprints on file
Left clumsily at the scene
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Yesterday the people were at ease
Baby you sleeped in peace
You closed your eyes and saw her
You knew who you were
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemy's come
Your world keeps turning round and round
But everything is upside down
Your own worst enemy has come to town
There's a place you know
Staring back from the shop window
The condition you're in
Now you just can't get out of this skin
Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah
The times are not to clear
So you moved over here
What's the family past a cure
Now no ones very sure
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemie's come
Vverything's falling down
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemy has come
Everything's falling down
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your flag it flew so high
It drifted into the sky

Girls in Their Summer Clothes
Well the street light shine
Down on Blessing Avenue
Lovers they walk by
Holdin' hands two by two
A breeze crosses the porch
Bicycle spokes spin 'round
Jackets on, I'm out the door
Tonight I'm gonna burn this town down
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
Kid's rubber ball smacks
Off the gutter 'neath the lamp light
Big bank clock chimes
Off go the sleepy front porch lights
Downtown the store's alive
As the evening's underway
Things been a little tight
But I know they're gonna turn my way
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
Frankie's Diner's
Over on the edge of town
Neon sign spinnin' round
Like a cross over the lost and found
Fluorescent lights
Flicker above Bob's Grill
Shaniqua brings a coffee and asks "fill?"
And says "penny for your thoughts now my poor Bill"
She went away
She cut me like a knife
Had a beautiful thing
Maybe you just saved my life
In just a glance
Down here on Magic Street
Love's a fool's dance
I ain't got no shoes but I still got my feet
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
La la la la, la la la la la la la

I'll Work for Your Love
Pour me a drink Theresa in one of those glasses you've dusted off
And I'll watch the bones in your back like the stations of the cross
'Round your head the sun lifts a halo at your lips a crown of thorns
Whatever the deal's going down, to this one I'm sworn
I'll work for your love dear
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love
The dust of civilizations hang love's sweet remains
Slip off of your fingers and come dripping down like rain
The pages of Revelation lie open in your empty eyes of blue
I watch you slip that comb through your hair and this I promise you
I'll work for your love dear
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love
Well, tears they fill the rosary at your feet my temple of bones
Here in this perdition we go on and on
Now I see the pieces crumble and our book of faith's been tossed
I'm just out here searching for my own piece of the cross
A late afternoon sun fills the room with a mist in the garden before
the fall
I watch your hands smooth the front of your blouse and seven drops of
blood fall
I'll work for your love dear
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love

Magic
I got a coin in my palm
I can make it disappear
I got a card up my sleeve
Name it and I'll pull it out your ear
I got a rabbit in my hat
If you wanna come and see
This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be
I got shackles on my wrists
Soon I'll slip and I'll be gone
Chain me in a box in the river
And Rising in the Sun
Trust none of what you hear
And less of what you see
This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be
I got a shiny saw blade
All I need's a volunteer
I'll cut you in half
While your smilin' at me
And the freedom that your songs
Drifting like a ghost amongst the trees
This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be
Now there's a fire down below
But it's coming up here
So leave everything you know
Carry only what you feel
On the road the sun is sinkin' low
Somebody's hanging in the trees
This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be

Last to Die
We took that highway til the road went black
We marked Truth or Consequences on our back
A voice drifted up from the radio
Yeah, some other voice from long ago
Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Whose blood will spill
Whose heart will break
Who'll be the last to die
For a mistake
The kids are sleeping in the backseat
We're just countin' the miles you and me
We don't measure the blood we've drawn anymore
We just stack the bodies outside the door
Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Whose blood will spill
Whose heart will break
Who'll be the last to die
For a mistake
The wise men were all fools
What to do
The sun sets in flames as the city burns
Another day gone down as the night turns
And I hold you here in my heart
As things fall apart
A downtown window flushed with light
Faces of the dead at five
A martyr's silent eyes
Petition the drivers as we pass by
Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Whose blood will spill
Whose heart will break
Who'll be the last to die
Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Darlin' your tyrants and kings form the same fate
Strung up at your city gates
And you're last to die
For a mistake

Long Walk Home
Last night I stood at your doorstep
Trying to figure out what went wrong
You just slipped something into my palm then you were gone
It was the same deep green of summer
Above me the same night sky was glowin'
In the distance I could see the town where I was born
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home, a long walk home
In town I passed Sal's grocery
The barber shop on South Street
I looked into the faces
They were all rank strangers to me
Veteran's Hall high up on the hill
Stood silent and alone
The diner was shuttered and boarded
With a sign that just said "gone"
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
It's gonna be a long walk home
Here everybody has a neighbor
Everybody has a friend
Everybody has a reason
To begin again
My father said "Son, we're lucky in this town
It's a beautiful place to be born.
It just wraps its arms around you,
Nobody crowds you, nobody goes it alone"
You flag flyin over the courthouse
It means certain things are set in stone.
Who we are, what we'll do and what we won't
Well it's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
'Cause it's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
It's gonna be a long walk home

Devil's Arcade
Remember a morning
We dug up your gun
Four rooms in a barrel
A hanging sun
Those first nervous evenings
Of Perfume and gin
They'll all smell on your breath
As I helped you get in
The rush of your lips
The feel of your nails
The beat of your heart
The Devil's Arcade
You said "Here are the needy
So here it'll get made"
Somebody made a bet
Somebody paid
The cool desert morning
and nothing to save
Just metal and plastic
Where your body caved
The slow games of poker
with Lieutenant Ray
and the ward with the blue walls
A sea with no name
Where you lie adrift with the heroes
Of The Devil's Arcade
You sleep and dream
your buddies Charlie and Jin
And wake with the fake desert dust on your skin
Voice says "Don't worry
I'm here
Just whisper the word tomorrow in my ear"
House on a quiet street
Home for the brave
A Glorious kingdom
with the sun on your face
Rising from a long night
As dark as the grave
On a thin sheet, the next moments
and something like faith
On a morning to order
A breakfast to make
A bed draped in sunshine
A Body that waits
For the touch of your fingers
The end of the day
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The slow burning away
Love’s bitter fires
of the Devil's Arcade

Terry's Song
Well they built the Titanic to be one of a kind, but many ships have ruled the sea
They built the Eiffel Tower to stand alone, they could build another if they pleased
Taj Mahal, the pyramids of Egypt, kinda unique I suppose
But when they built you, brother, they broke the mold
Now the world is filled with many wonder under the passing sun
And sometimes something comes along and you know for sure it’s the only one
The Mona Lisa, the David, the Sistine Chapel, Jesus, Mary and Joe
And when they built you, brother, they broke the mold
When they built you brother, they turned dust into gold
When they built you, brother, they broke the mold
They say you can’t take it with you, but I think that they’re wrong
Cause all I know is I woke up this morning, and something big was gone
Gone into that dark ether where you’re still young and dark and cold
Just like when they built you, brother, they broke the mold
Now your death is upon us and we’ll return your ashes to the earth
And I know you’ll take comfort in knowing that you been roundly blessed and cursed
But love is a power greater than death
Just like the songs and stories told
And when she built you, brother, she broke the mold
That attitudes a power stronger than death
Oh I’ve been burning (her stone cold?)
When they built you, brother
