Good Day to You

Good day to you
Good day to start all anew
We all like a good beginning
There’s no telling who’s winning
So a good day to you
If you’re nine or ninety-two
There’s still plenty of time
To make everything alright
So daydream with me
I tend to talk in my sleep
And since my love is away
You’ll have to tell me what I say
Good day to you
I hope you enjoy the view
So just sit back and listen
To the Junior Citizens

A Unique Place
02:58

A unique place
For you and me
A smiling face
I haven’t seen
In a little while
No not for a little while
A happy home
Where we can go
Don’t gotta be
So damn alone
Like we used to
How we used to be
I know it isn’t perfect
You know things never are
We’ve lasted this long together
I could stand for a little more
We’ll get that home, we’ll buy that car
Give ourselves a brand new start
A unique place
I’ve come to find
A broken bookcase
No books are mine
I’m just gonna go around
To every brewhouse left in town
A happy home
A dog and yard
We’ll get stoned
On the boulevard
I don’t mind to spend a dime
To just show you a good ole time
I know it still ain’t perfect
I try to do you good
Just a little more not together
Then we’ll be the way we should
We’ll get that home, we’ll buy that car
Give ourselves a brand new start

Sweet Summer Sunshine

My love, my love, where have you gone
It feels like so long since I was in your arms
My love, my love, come on love let me find her,
I think I lost her in that god forsaken winter
I want you to stay here with me
Come on cover me, cover me in
Can I say here quickly
Come on cover me, cover me in
Sweet summer sunshine
Your love is so fine
Sweet summer sunshine
Come back and be mine
My love, my love, out here I’m feeling tortured
This winter’s so cold and I’m in need of a scorcher
My love, my love, please find your way
My days are over, hanging out in the shade
I want you to stay here with me
Come on in and cover me in
And can I say here quickly
Come on in and cover me in
Sweet summer sunshine
Your love is so fine
Sweet summer sunshine
Come back and be mine
I want you to stay here with me
Come on in and cover me in
And can I say here quickly
Come on in and cover me in
Sweet summer sunshine
Your love is so fine
Sweet summer sunshine
Come back and be mine
Sweet summer sunshine
Your love is so fine
Sweet summer sunshine
Come back and be mine

Steel Toed Running Shoes
02:43
|
|||
|
All started with a line
Grabbed my steel-toed running shoes
And raced outside
Ready to go
But afraid of what I’d find
Maybe she was right
About the way I talk
(Dreaming of the things that could be)
Maybe she was right
I should of went for it all
(Seemed a little risky to me)
Never pick a side cause they both disagree
Maybe she was righter than me
Now this race still undefined
I’ve been running for forever
But I’m still behind
A strange decision on the mind
But I’m never going to make myself fall in line
(Maybe she was)
Maybe she was
Maybe she was right
About the way I talk
(Dreaming of the things he could be)
Maybe she was right
I should of went for it all
(Seemed a little risky to me)
Never pick a side cause they both disagree
Maybe she was righter than
Maybe she was righter than
Maybe she was righter than me

World Flipped Round
02:48
|
|||
|
I’m defeated
Straight up retreated
Got blindsided by a girl
Always needing
Never feeling
The sound that I just heard
She was stealing (my heart)
I wasn’t breathing
And cowered to the floor
She started pleading
I lost the meaning
And I walked right out the door
For the time the world flipped round on me
The way it often does
For the time the world flipped round on me
I couldn’t press my luck
I was defeated
Straight up retreated
But now I call the bluff
I never needed
More than the feeling
That I am always loved
For the time the world flipped round on me
The way it often does
For the time the world flipped round on me
This time I wish for luck
For the time the world flipped round on me
The way it often does
For the time the world flipped round on me
This time I wish for luck

Run
04:25
|
|||
|
Here you are again
Stuck in a fix, out of your tricks
That you usually use
To offset the mood
So what are you gonna do
You need a solution soon
You’ll run, you’ll run
To get yourself out from the bottom
You need more time to run
More time to run from your problems
You need more time to run
More time to run from your problems
You sit and wait for your deadline
You sit and wait till there’s no time
Then you blame it on clock and not
How you’re waiting for time to stop
Well you want to go far
And give your life a remodel
Go sail your life by the stars
You can’t sail far on a ship in a bottle
You need more time to run
More time to run from your problems
You need more time to run
More time to run from your problems
Are your legs feeling tired
Is your head feeling wired
I see you pander in your hunt for grandeur
Are your legs feeling tired
Is your head feeling wired
I see you pander to your delusions of grandeur
Here I am again
Stuck in a fix, out of my tricks
That I usually use
To offset the mood
What happened to the second person
What happened to the third degree
I’ll run, you’ll run
To hide from whom you’re really preaching
You need more time to run
More time to run from your problems
You need more time to run
More time to run from your problems

Home Alone
03:43

Where is the woman that you love tonight?
Under the weather? Is she not feeling quite right?
Tell her I’m sorry
Where is the woman that you love tonight?
Or is it over? Did you lose another fight?
If so, I’m sorry
Where did she go? Where, where did she go?
Why did you leave her home alone
Mishandled money and I lost a bet
I would’ve gone but I’m still not solvent yet
And now I’m sorry
I used to say no matter where you’d go
I’d make sure that you would never go alone
And now I’m sorry
Where did she go? Where, where did she go?
Why did you leave her home alone
My big man plans to make more fan could’ve been put on hold
Are my guitar and my new car really worth their weight in gold
It seems like two thousand miles is a long way to go
Seems like two thousand miles is long way to go all alone
Where is the woman that I love tonight?
If I could tell you maybe then I’d be alright
And I’m so sorry
If she could tell me everywhere she’s been
She would tell me I don’t have to fret again
But still I’m sorry
Where did she go? Where, where did she go?
Why did I leave her home alone
Where did she go? Where, where did she go?
Why did I leave her home alone

Everything To Me
03:58
|

I thought it was done
I thought it was over
I thought it was done
But you were right on my shoulder
When you get what you want
When you get what you need
That’s all you wanna talk about
All you see
When you get what you want
You always think it’ll leave
But you’re telling me “forever’s what I mean”
That’s everything to me
You're right by my side
There’s no need for layover
Let’s grow up and retire
I can’t till we’re older
When you get what you want
When you get what you need
That’s all you wanna talk about
All you see
When you get what you want
You always think it’ll leave
But you’re telling me “forever’s what I mean”
That’s everything to me

Raining
02:30

|
It just won’t stop raining
Oh what am I to do?
The printer just ain’t printing
It’s looking pretty blue
The people just aren’t drinking
Maybe they have the flu
It just won’t stop raining
What am I to do?
I can try to be the person I am
While she’s over there catching a tan
Here the rain may fall and the printer may stall
Maybe someday I can take a stand
I’m feeling kinda lazy
Don’t wanna go tonight
It’s happening so quickly
Don’t wanna go outside
All I said was maybe
Well something just ain’t right
I’m feeling pretty queasy
Don’t wanna go tonight
I can try to be the person I am
While she’s over there catching a tan
Here the rain may fall and the printer may stall
Maybe someday I can take a stand
She hasn’t written back yet
She’s always on my mind
All I can do is practice
Practice all my lines
Oh well…

Maintenance Man
02:00
|
|||
|
Well it’s a life but it’s no living
Making twelve an hour with nothing for saving
So saying he’s just gotta save some away
Means he’s not gonna eat lunch today
But hey, that’s the life of your maintenance man
Won’t you give him a hand, your maintenance man
Steers a gas guzzler with an hour commute
Still gotta switch your light by noon
He’s got a kid with a wife on the way
Still should’ve snaked your drain yesterday
But hey, that’s the life of your maintenance man
Won’t you give him a hand, your maintenance man
Can spackle a hole but the hole in his jeans
Means he gets written up by the big whig machine
He’s a couple days behind on all his to dos
You think that it’s important to tell him get to it
And at the end of the day
It’s a wonder he’s awake
And in the middle of the night that blue hard light
Tells him he’s gotta make your problems alright
But hey, that’s the life of your maintenance man
Won’t you give him a hand, your maintenance man
But hey, that’s the life of your maintenance man
Won’t you give him a hand, your maintenance man

Mr. Marmalade
Turned 88 today
I can still hear him say
That’s my favorite marmalade
He hasn’t gone away
Just gone a little gray
I can still hear him say
That’s my favorite marmalade
Marmalade man
He wants a jar not a can
There’s one thing that man can’t stand
That marmalade can
Mr. Marmalade
Turned 88 today
I can still hear him say
That’s my favorite marmalade

Morgan Vanity
No faith in humanity
Skin deep lover of mine
She never seemed to pick up the phone
She never took out a loan
She’s never spending a dime
But when she walked my way
There’s nothing else I could say but
Vanity was never a crime
Morgan Vanity
Always used profanity
But I was too enamored to mind
She always seemed to be all alone
She had a mind of her own
And not the delicate kind
But still she walked my way
There’s nothing else I could say but
Vanity was never a crime
Morgan
That Morgan
You never should’ve messed with Morgan
Morgan
That Morgan
You never should’ve messed with her
Morgan
That Morgan
Should’ve told ya never mess with Morgan
Morgan
That Morgan
You never should’ve messed with her
Morgan Vanity
Cure to my insanity
At least that’s what I thought at the time
She was hard as stone
But it was deep in my bones
So I’d be gone about quarter to five
Cause then she’d walk my way
And I would beg her to stay cause
Vanity was never a crime
Morgan
That Morgan
Should’ve told ya never mess with Morgan
Morgan
That Morgan
Should’ve told ya never mess with her
Morgan
That Morgan
Should’ve told ya never mess with Morgan
Morgan
That Morgan
Should’ve told ya never mess with her
Morgan Vanity
No faith in humanity
Skin deep lover of mine
She never seemed to pick up the phone
She never took out a loan
(She’s) never spending a dime
But when she walked my way
There’s nothing else I could say but
Vanity was never a crime
Vanity was never a crime

Let's Retire
02:55
|

In the mood for something sweet
It’s been a long day on my feet
My legs are tired, my back’s on fire
But seeing you can get me so rewired baby
Ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Oh baby ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Oh baby ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
We’ve got some technicolor pattern sheets
Can’t play games with you you always cheat
So we’re in the garden getting down and dirty
Sixty-five is the brand new thirty baby
Ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Oh baby ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Oh baby ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Looking at all these old photographs
I looked so dumb when I wore that baseball cap
Back when everything seemed new
Anyway you want to
You could get and I’d give it right to you
But these days I’m running pretty low on juice
We could be the way we were when things were new
If you really want to
I’m still craving that something sweet
My mouth is bitter from drinking neat
All my subscriptions are about to expire
You’re the last thing that I require so baby
Ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Oh baby ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
Oh baby ooh let’s retire
(Let’s retire)
