A Good Day
Planes flying low over the bay
Murder of crows flying every which way
Did a good deed, didn’t take no pay
You can lay your head down
You had a good day
Saw the sunrise, saw the sunset
Walked in about without regret
Play what you love, love what you play
Your back don’t hurt
You had a good day
Never too low, just high enough
Smooth off the edge
When the going gets rough
Let your eyes close
Hear a saxophone play
You’re doing ok, you had a good day
Watching the breeze pushing the leaves
Sway and lean, branches and trees
Silky blue sky get you so high
Wish it would stay
When you have a good day

Too Late
It’s too late now, the last train’s gone
Last ship sailed over the horizon
It’s too late baby, no more songs
They pulled the plug
Now the band is gone

It’s too late baby, too late now
The clock is turning and there’s no one around
Too late baby, too late now
You’re stuck with me and there’s no way out

It’s too late baby, it’s not a curse
You could do better, could do worse
Lay your head inside your hand
It’s too late darling, time for bedIt’s too late now, the last train’s gone
Last ship sailed over the horizon
It’s too late baby, no more songs
They pulled the plug
Now the band is gone

It’s too late baby, too late now
The clock is turning and there’s no one around
Too late baby, too late now
You’re stuck with me and there’s no way out

It’s too late baby, it’s not a curse
You could do better, could do worse
Lay your head inside your hand
It’s too late darling, time for bed

Man on the Moon
A long time ago there was a man on the moon
Looking out his telescope
Tiny little bed, tiny little room
Liked to call it home sweet home
He’d come down to the earth every once in awhile
To see how things were playing out
Never stayed too long, he felt he didn’t belong
Misunderstood what all the fuss was about

Haven’t seen you in a while
It’s hard to travel all those miles
Come on down, won’t be too soon
Come on down, tell you a story about the man on the moon

He sits by the window and stares at the stars
The earth rises silently
Here comes Saturn and here comes Mars
Over the Sea of Tranquility
He went over to the dark side a couple of times
To see if all the talk was true
He liked it much better where the golden sun shined
And he could get a better view
Come on down…

You Can’t Sweet talk Anymore
Too bad you lost your voice now Sonny
Can’t sweet talk all the ladies now
Can’t sing a song that drips with honey
Not sure that you could anyhow
Sitting all alone in darkness
Hear the tires hissing down the street

You’re all alone
Like someone put you in the hole
And you spun out of control
Cuz you can’t sweet talk anymore

Feeling tight and kinda torn
Like the that shirt that’s on the chair
Wish that you could be reborn
Anywhere else than over there
Didn’t blow out all the candles
And your wish didn’t come true

You’re not alone
Not the first one in the hole
To spin your plane out of control
You just can’t sweet talk anymore

Mr. Airplane conductor
Are we ever gonna land
We can’t fly around forever
I think I see a patch of sand
But the Geiger counter’s ticking
Faster than it was before

We’re not alone
Wonder who’s been here before
Someone sleeping in my bed
Who’s that knocking on my door
You’re not alone
Not the first one in the hole
To spin your plane out of control
You just can’t sweet talk anymore

Find Out Who Your Friends Are Float like a feather, sink like a stone Think you’re gonna live forever  Since the day you were born  You’re drifting in the wind Like a dandelion seed  When you’re face down on the sidewalk  You find out what you really need 

Nobody gets off clean Plenty of mud to go around  When you wrestle with the devil You get below the ground  Try not to get bit ry not to get squeezed  You’re gonna get dirty When you get down on your knees 

 In my sweet short life I found this to be true  Friends will let you down  You’re gonna let them down too I wouldn’t take it so hard  Who am I to tell it to you  You find out who your friends are  They find out who you are too

No use in trying to unring that bell No use in crying You’re just crying for yourself  Do unto others  To thine own self be true  You find out who your friends are  They find out who you are too

In my sweet short life…

 I’d rather be taken, rather be took  The way the earth is shaking  Has got me all shook You shook me baby Like an earthquake moves the land Nobody wants to lift a finger  Never mind give a helping hand 

Floating Man
Have you heard about the floating man
He tried crossing to the other side
His spirit started to expand
But strange things happen
When your soul collides
So many things he didn’t get to know
As he floats above the power lines
All the people walking to and fro
In and out a little ring of light

It’s an urban myth some people say
But it depends on who you talk to that day
Lovers holding hands
Have seen his lonely glance
He must be shy ‘cause he turns away
He dangles right below that old street light
Ever since he met that fateful night
Seems a lot of time’s gone by
Watching pieces of life
Moving in and out that ring of light

You can ask about the floating man
Is he waiting for someone to show
Did he have important plans
Where on earth did he have to go
Did his spirit finally dissipate
Did they let him in the pearly gates
Did that angel finally set things right
Is he still shining down that ring of light

Move
I knew somebody since they were born
Used to be here but now they’re gone
They turned me onto so many things
But the road ran out and my eyes got rings

You gotta move, got to keep on moving
You gotta go, either fast or slow
You gotta move keep on moving
It don’t matter which way you go

You learn to crawl, you walk and run away
You got a mortgage for the other day
You got to hide from the air you breathe
You wear a mask and stay away from me
You gotta move

My mama’s face was in the sky
She looked down at me and started to cry
Couldn’t believe the things I’d done
I thought I was a kid having some fun
I did some bad and I did some good
If I had an eraser, I surely would
Remove the hurt, remove the pain
But I’d probably do it all over again
You gotta move

Some Kind of Light
Was feeling low I was feeling down
The world was giving me the runaround
In the moment you’re supposed to live
Share a gift you’re supposed to give
It should be easy, yes I know
Which way I’m supposed to go
Seek the truth with all your might
When it gets dark try to reach the light
Don’t give up without a fight
Some kind of light shine on me

I hope there’s something but I don’t know
When you’re gone where do you go
Feeling blue then feeling high
Take it in and breathe a sigh
This mean old world could make you cry
If I had wings I would fly, fly, fly
Some kind of light shine on me

Smoke signals floating in my brain
Boats creaking in the misty rain
Sails falling off the horizon
Rising tide, setting sun
Waiting for another one
Here comes the night and the day is done
Some kind of light shine on me

  Remembering Wrong Lyrics by Bill Flanagan

Aren’t you the guy who used to get high, borrow money that you never repaid Aren’t you the punk who used to get drunk, brag about the girls you betrayed A real big man with a broken glass Till the police came along But I don’t know Maybe I’m remembering wrong

 Weren’t you the cheat it was so tough to beat, walked around taking bets Aren’t you the one with a silver gun, waved it ‘round making threats A double dealer, a rotten squealer No place you belong But I don’t know Maybe I’m remembering wrong

 Aren’t you the liar who wore a wire, testified against your friends Aren’t you the snitch who took dirty pictures with a telephoto lens You liked to pick on the little guys You ran from anyone strong But I don’t know Maybe I’m remembering wrong

Maybe you came back to apologize Try to make things right Maybe you been born again Perhaps you’ve seen the light

 Aren’t you the liar who started a fire, blamed it on another kid You went missin’ when he went to prison, everybody knew what you did He died inside, a suicide While you kept going strong But I don’t know Maybe I’m remembering wrong

Stole money from your mother’s purse Swiped your sister’s credit card Refused to admit it, When they proved you did it Said family life was hard

 Aren’t you the weasel who stole the diesel from his neighbor’s truck Ran out of gas on the overpass, you said it was his bad luck You’re the wife beater, serial cheater, Sold heroin from Hong Kong But I don’t know Maybe I’m remembering wrong

Aren’t you the crook who used to keep books for the Chinese underworld You left town when the heat came down, blamed it on an Asian girl I heard later you betrayed her To the Falun Gong But I don’t know Maybe I’m remembering wrong

Aren’t you the loser who went to a boozer with a pistol and a pillow case Stuck it in the nose of Tokyo Rose, She spit right in your face You started retreating She gave you a beating Without staining her sarong But I don’t know Maybe I’m remembering wrong

Keep an Eye Out For You
Don’t know the next thing that you’re going to do
You’re not alone, I’ve been there too
If you’re in need, I’m your man
Seal deal, come on shake my hand

I’ll keep an eye out for you
You keep an eye out for me too
When the morning comes
And the rain’s falling down
I’ll keep an eye out for you

Send a signal from across the way
No words spoken, I know what you say
Truth in your eyes, fire in your heart
There might be distance but we’re never apart
I’ll keep an eye out for you

Don’t know the next thing
That you’re going to be
Take your time
Eventually some things work
Some things fade
It’s brand new morning
Another bed is made
I’ll keep an eye out for you

I Know What It’s Like
I know what It’s like to feel no pain
I know what it’s like to be lost in the rain
Destined to roam, locked out of your home
Side streets glisten, no one to listen
I surely know

I know how it is, can’t take off your shoes
I know how it is, scared and confused
Trouble recalling, afraid that you’re falling
Spinning around drilling holes in the ground
I surely know

I was lost and adrift so late in the game
So much mystery, I couldn’t give it a name
You are my true north, lead me back home
Who wants to be destined to ramble and roam

I know what it’s like to be high on the hill
I know what it’s like to tumble and spill
Watching the river gives you a shiver
Drift in the ocean, gives you a notion
I surely know

Home

How lucky can you be Standing by the windswept sea Beneath the sky and sunlight You know every word Every song of every bird Whistling on the power lines 

A new day and a new surprise  Every time you open your eyes  Welcome home

 How high I have felt When the ice starts to melt First green sings in the sun 

A new day’s first sigh Before you know The checkered flag flies Seems like race just begun
