Sitting in the sand like a stretched out A rubber band
Chillin to the music and the waves along the strand
(it's a) oh, no
they don't
break now
I'm gonna sink I'm gonna
Cut back and I'm burning,
sweatin' so i'm turning
and i'm hopping in the the water cuz the waves have got me yearning
but it's cold now
hop out...
heading to my towel where I blow another hour singing...
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la
I watch the girls and go
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la
She goes and cuts em' in, time again, her fist is out to do him in
She's passing off another thing, tugging on that little string
Pulling on this dream you see, Drinking in the scenery
Sipping on the the thoughts of the pretty girls that i can see
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la
I watch the girls and go
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la
I'm happy just to be here now
Sharing this world with you all
The sky above the earth below
But if I had another round
I'd take it down and share it with you all
(SOLO AREA)
Digging through the cooler looking for the coldest brew (i)
need another shot, i gotta lot-a time to kill
I think I'll Kick back
Re-lax
Fade back
It's gettin' late and now the
The sun is sinking low, I think i'll pack my <b>STUFF</b> and go
so I'm headed home to get ready for some more
Hit the shower now...
Hop out...
Heading to the bars to blow a few more hours singing...
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la
I watch the girls and go
Ooh la la, said, Ooh la la, said a Ooh la la, la
I'm happy just to be here now
Sharing this world with you all
The sky above the earth below
But if I had another round
I'd take it down and share it with you all...na, na, na...
Share it with you all...na, na, na…

I got some luck last night / You can take a bite
Met a little cutie she was looking for ride
Now who am i not to oblige
When a crazy little lady goes n' hops inside
I got my pants on the table / Got my shirt on the floor
She's ripping off her clothing / That's one girl your can't ignore
She's knocking down that freakin' door / Said Damn that
girl is hot / Gonna get me some more
Baby's got a big ol bag she pulls out of the drawer
Wondering what it is exactly that she's got for me in store
Praying that it won't be painful, someday we'll see...na, na, na,
I got a smile so wide / Everybody's gonna party inside
I've got a smile so wide / All gonna come, gonna come inside
I've got a smile so wide / Everybody's talking bout climbing inside
I've got a smile so wide / Ever-gonna, ever-gonna, ever-gonna get inside
I got the drip drip, drop drop, checking on the mountain top
Only think i'm thinking bout / checking out that flip flop
Down...on the beach... sitting in the sand soaking up the summer heat
Down...by the reef...surfing all day just my buddies and me
I---'ve got to go...quit my job, leave this place head out on the road
I---'ve got to go...quit my job, leave this place head out on the road
Praying that it won't be painful, someday we'll see...na, na, na,
I got a smile so wide / Everybody's gonna party inside
I've got a smile so wide / All gonna come, gonna come inside
I've got a smile so wide / Everybody's talking bout climbing inside
I've got a smile so wide / Ever-gonna, ever-gonna, ever-gonna get inside
(SOLO AREA)
I've got a whole lotta love / Enough for all of us
If you need a little, take a little you can be my guest
Now who am i not to help out / When you need
something, man, i'm there no doubt
You can keep my stuff / If you think it'll get you by
Otherwise leave it for the next one there in line
Everytime i go and try / To help the ones a little
less / Fortunate in life
Something about their smile warms me up inside
Knowing that i did a little bit to get them by
Praying that it won't be painful, someday we'll see...na, na, na,
I got a smile so wide / Everybody's gonna party inside
I've got a smile so wide / All gonna come, gonna come inside
I've got a smile so wide / Everybody's talking bout climbing inside
I've got a smile so wide / Ever-gonna, ever-gonna, ever-gonna get inside
Gonna get in side...
Gonna get in side...
Gonna get in side…

There must be something in the water
that's making me feel so good
There must be something in the sky above
the moon the sun some love
There must be something in the way
the way i see the world
There must be something out there man
cuz i'm really feeling good
But it's got to be something...but man i can't figure it out
it's got to be something...but it's blowing my mind out
There must be something in the sand
that falls between my toes
There must be something in those waves out there
but man who really knows?
There must be something in the sun
that's beating down upon my face
There must be something out there
something somewhere, it's got to be this place!
But it's got to be something...but man i can't figure it out
it's got to be something...but it's blowing my mind out
I'm just dreaming bout kicking back scheming out
Living for the moment like the wind i wish i owned it
Gotta a feeling like i'm flying high
Reaching out to touch the sky Go! / Go!
I'm just dreaming bout kicking back scheming out

There must be something in the architecture
making up this day
There must be some kind of cosmic forces
to make today today
There must be something in the blood
that's coursing though my veins
There must be something out there man
for my life i can't explain
But it's got to be something...but man i can't figure it out
it's got to be something...but it's blowing my mind out
I'm just dreaming bout kicking back scheming out
Living for the moment like the wind i wish i owned it

Man I tell you baby / Got-ta go and take it
Got-ta keep on pushing / Man you gonna make it
This time, this time, this time you can make it through
I'm taking a bets / That you can't forget
You won't feel hate / Hope you relate
It's the sun and sky shining down on you
Everybody says / That they know what's best
But how could that be? / Cuz they don't know you
Everybody claims / That they know who to blame
But how can they blame anybody / They haven't a clue
Life can drive you crazy / Things (shit) can end up hazy
Dreams can often Vanish / Leave you sitting lazy
But man i know, i know you can make it through
I'm here to try / To help you on this ride
Just takes some time / Set free in your mind /
It's just that something out here wants to see you through
Everybody says / That they know what's best
But how could that be? / Cuz they don't know you
Everybody claims / That they know who to blame
But how can they blame anybody / They haven't a clue
I'm sitting round waiting for / you...to heal your mind
If you need someone then baby, I'll sit with you
I'm hanging round waiting for / (you to) feel just fine
If you need someone then baby, I'll sit with you

Do you care what people say when they're standing in your way
Not walking in your shoes / Even when they say ...They feel it
No matter what they do / Or what they put me through
Advice they wanna give / Gonna make it through ...And feel it
Turn it up loud, downtown where the beat began
Open up the windows and listen to the groove within
Turn it up loud, now, turn it up loud, now turn it up loud!
Do you hear the drums lock / the bass they tick tock
Feel it in your chest / They hear it down the block ...They feel it
There's something in your soul / Going overload
Feeling like your chest is ready to explode ...You feel it
Turn it up loud, downtown where the beat began
Open up the windows and listen to the groove within
Turn it up loud, now, turn it up loud, now turn it up loud!
Because I've got no money / I've got no time
I got no fancy job / But baby that's alright
I've got a crap load of friends and ice cold beer
I've got a nice 6 string / & nothing to fear
Because I waste my life / The one I choose
Spend half my life buzzed off cheep booze
I've got a crap load of friends and ice cold beer
I've got a nice 6 string / & nothing to fear
Can You Feel it? Can you Feel it?
Aw man I feel it!
(MUSIC/SOLO AREA)
Oh no, whatchya gonna do / Everyone's trashed in this entire room
Oh man, i think that you can take it / No time for me to explain it
Everybody's talking about everybody else
Nobody's looking back at themselves
Everybody's burning out / Everybody's churning out / Everybody's getting down
Do you hear it in the night / Damn that stuff is tight
The Beat is sounding Fat / Guitars are sitting right ...I Feel it
Something hanging round / The vibe in this old town
Put a smile on my face / Whenever she's around ...I Feel it
Turn it up loud, downtown where the beat began
Open up the windows and listen to the groove within
Turn it up loud, now, turn it up loud, now turn it up loud!
Can You Feel it? Can you Feel it?
Aw man I feel it!
Can You Feel it? Can you Feel it?
Aw man I feel it!

It's been a long day / got nothing to say
Nothing wrong with kicking back and drifting on your way
But you may find yourself gone, to old and gray
Wishing that you didn't go and waste your life away
I said now how long, how much time you think you've got
could be 80 years or right around the block
because it's ticking, ticking, time it never stops
what the hell you doing man is that the best you've got?
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
This one girl i dated, man was she sedated
Locked in her inside her little world of TV where she waited
She had no hope, no dreams, no life, no aim
No love, no hate, no time to wait
I said now how long, how much time you think you've got
could be 80 years or right around the block
because it's ticking, ticking, time it never stops
what the hell you doing man is that the best you've got?
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How ya gonna spend your life
Waiting around for the life to pass you by
(Solo Area)
The rich mans shot, same time upon the clock
Poor man loses out only if he chooses
Equal times gained it's how you play the game
dealing with the time your given man it's all the same
Well, some day when i go... Man i think i know
If I make it there, clouds will fill the air
Angels gather round, with that loving sound
And those big ol' wings, They'll turn to me and sing
And they'll sing
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around, i said waiting around to die
How DID you spend your life
Waiting around for life to pass you by

Oh, here she comes again / Just what i needed
This time, I can not pretend / That I don't need her
All this time i acted like a fool
Pretending I don't need you
Passed you up and went on my own way - damn i'm sorry
Never need everything to go and be alright
Needed time to spend alone to think 'bout shit tonight
Burned it down, smoke wisped away, Blowing through these city streets
Took a while, but now I'm smiling, and everything's just nice n' sweet
Oh, here she comes again / Just what i needed
This time, I can not pretend / That I don't need her
All this time i acted like a fool
Pretending I don't need you
Passed you up and went on my own way - damn i'm sorry

What makes you a better man?
What makes you a better man than that old man sitting in the park
Beggin' for your change cuz that's all he's got
What makes you a better person?
What makes you a better person than that same man 30 years ago
He's got the perfect life and a perfect home
Looking back you see, but don't believe me...
Man, we're all the same as anyone can see
So, go (a)head and burn it down
go head and light it up
Burn that down got that wall that separate us all
oh...oh, oh, oh
Burn down that thinking/ man you got me drinking?
It's a mighty long way to get back where you're kickin' it back home
What make you a lesser woman?
What makes you a lesser woman than that pretty girl in the magazine
Anorexic, superficial, coked up queen
What makes you a lesser soul than?
What makes you a lesser soul than that, young, man, of cloth,
spent his whole damn life trying to make stuff up
Looking back you see, but don't believe me...
Man, we're all the same as anyone can see
So, go (a)head and burn it down
go head and light it up
Burn that down got that wall that separate us all

Hey, oh, whatchya gonna do
I'm gonna get a oneway ticket and i'll send you back to school
Down, line, take it every time
Cuz your going, but now knowing what your doing with your life
Enter/tain me is all you ever say
Why don't you drop another drink until you slip on your way
Cuz exist...resist...persist...exist
I said now oh....
So, go (a)head and burn it down

Burn that down got that wall that separate us all

Burn down that thinking/ man you got me drinking?

Well i'm mutilated, compensated all the shit i ever hated
Everything i ever needed all the times i've been sedated
Don't drink much / i don't know why
always seems like i'm too drunk to drive
But that's ok, i moved away and sold my shit the other day
And now i'm sitting in the car waiting for you
you don't miss me / but damn she's fine
It always turns out to waist my time...
So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling
I took a cooler in, a fifth of gin and mixed it with a little grin
And shared it all night with a sexy pretty little thing
I'd kinda like to see / Maybe it's just me
Streaking through the halls of this of this lobby
Cuz i don't drink that much / Sometimes i lie
Always seems like i'm too drunk to drive
Because you don't miss me / but damn she's cool
I always turn out to play the fool
So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling, So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling
Well I raised the bar and crashed my car and drove it to a foreign shore
and pushed that little fucker until it wouldn't go no more
I sold that beast / And hitchhiked home
Stuck with a phycho and no telephone
But that's alright, I lived in spite to tell the tale of that night
And now i'm sitting in the bar waiting for you
Getting trashed / But that's just fine
Nothing else good to do with my time
So i'm rolling, Yes I'm rolling

I was sitting up all night / waiting for you last night
for you to come around
But you never did / must have been FAKING IT
when / When you said that you would
I was tired of getting lied to / take it in stride to
tired of being tied to/
tried to be through... from me and you
So I called up an old friend / just to console in
she said that she'd swing by
It started off innocent / talking 'bout the government
thought it'd clear my mind
But the next thing you know / we were taking of our clothes
...rolling on the floor / tearing up the night
going back for more / going back for more
We had a good time / a good time
Everybody's talking about the good time that we
had last night / When we were giving it a try
Running through the motions and tearing up the night
A good time / a good time
Just...thought i'd tell you that you can...
get back / get back / get back on that track
Get back you can go if you've got to go
Next morning when we woke up / felt a little awkward
until i saw her smile
Wondered how we'll play this / Wondered how we'll say this
this all went down
We decided just go back / Like it all was back
Like it all was the day before
When we were friends...nothing more.
Could i say I want to go back?
Could i say I wish i'd never played this game at all?
Could i say I want to go back to that flow
Before the hook up and my good luck, man/hell noWe had a good time / a good time
Everybody's talking about the good time that we
had last night / When we were giving it a try
Running through the motions and tearing up the night
A good time / a good time
Just...thought i'd tell you that you can...
get back / get back / get back on that track
Get back you can go if you've got to go(SOLO AREA)

...oh no cuz she's beautiful
Freed my mind with a / long ass drive to the
spot where we met and/ talked and sweat our love
...oh no cuz she's beautiful
Every time i see her i just lose my mind when she comes near
Everything, everything, I see you...oh, no, no, cuz she's beautiful

Oh, I need... To get outside so i can go and
Feel the breeze... Blowing through my soul
Until I feel at ease.... Disappear into the distance
Oh man, whatchya gonna do this time
Stuck inside, cuz you can't hide, for your whole life
Dig down, way down deep inside
Strap it up and fill it up and take a ride (I said now oh...)
Oh...I need... To strip on down to basics just
Once, you'll see... You don't need that fancy STUFF (shit)
To feel free... Just friends and love and shelter
Hey man, do you really live like that
Materialistic / Pessimistic / All that crap
Let go / Slow mo / Just relax
Possessions own you if you let them (I said now oh...)
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
OH.....I FEEL FREE.
I don't / Need to / Be the one that holds you back
I don't / Need to / Be that monkey on your back

Op-en dreams... Don't give up on the things you'd like
To achieve... Nothing is impossible if

Lazy / Crazy / Hypnotize
Coasting through this life is such a waste of time (I said now oh...)

Ma-hittable the horrible, she strikes yet once again
You can take her out to dinner and act like your best friend
But - when the when the food arrives and everyone digs in
Mahittable the horrible, she gets that evil grin
And she throws and she throws....
and the food, flies everywhere
You'd better duck, and hope for luck. Mahittable is here!
Ma - hittable the horrible she snaps just like a twig
You can have the greatest time until she flips her lid
Cuz - when the party starts and and the room it starts to spin
Mahittable the horrible, is the worst she's ever been
And she throws and she throws....
and she throws a giant fit
You'd better duck, and hope for luck, or you just might get hit!
