I wonder what it’s like to be the rainmaker I wonder what it’s like to know that I make the rain I’d store it in boxes with little yellow tags on everyone and you can come see them when I’m...done, when I’m done

I wonder what it’s like to be a super hero I wonder where I’d go if I could fly around downtown from some other planet, I get this funky high on yellow sun boy I bet my friends will all be...stunned, they’re stunned (chorus) straight up, what did you hope to learn about here if I were someone else, would this all fall apart strange, where were you, when we started this gig, I wish the real world, would just stop hassling me

I wonder what it’s like to be the head honcho I wonder what I’d do if they all did just what I said I’d shout out an order, I think we’re out of this man get me some boy don’t make me wanna change my...tone, my tone (chorus) please don’t change, please don’t break the only thing that seems to work at all is you please don’t change, at all from me to you, and you to me (chorus)

she’s got a little bit of something, God it’s better than nothing and in her color portrait world she believes that she’s got it all she swears the moon don’t hang quite as high as it used to and she only sleeps when it’s raining and she screams and her voice is straining (chorus) she believes that life is made up of all that you’re used to and the clock on the wall has been stuck at three for days, and days she thinks that happiness is a mat that sits on her doorway but outside it’s stopped raining (chorus)

4) PUSH (3:59)

she said I don’t know if I’ve ever been good enough I’m a little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in and I don’t know if I’ve ever been really loved by a hand that’s touched me, well I feel like something’s gonna give and I’m a little bit angry, well

this ain’t over, no not here, not while I still need you around you don’t owe me, we might change yeah we just might change (chorus) I wanna push you around, I will, I will I wanna push you down, I will, I will I wanna take you for granted, I wanna take you for granted I will

6) BACK 2 GOOD (5:40)

it’s nothing, it’s so normal you just stand there I could say so much but I don’t go there cuz I don’t want to I was thinking if you were lonely maybe we could leave here and no one would know at least not to the point that we would think so

everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about somebody else it’s best if we all keep it under our heads I couldn’t tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do but I’m lonely now, and I don’t know how to get it back to good

this don’t mean that, you own me this ain’t no good, in fact it’s phony as hell but things worked out just like you wanted too if you see me out you don’t know me try to turn your head, try to give me some room to figure out just what I’m going to do

and everyone here, hates everyone here for doing just like they do it’s best if we all keep this quiet instead and I couldn’t tell, why everyone here was doing me like they do but I’m sorry now, and I don’t know how to get it back to good

everyone here, is wondering what it’s like to be with somebody else everyone here’s to blame, everyone here gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain, everyone hides shades of shame, but looking inside we’re the same, we’re the same and we’re all grown now, but we don’t know how to get it back to good

everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking ‘bout somebody else it’s best if we all keep this under our heads I couldn’t tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do but it’s over now, and I don’t know how, it’s over now there’s no getting back to good

7) DAMN (3:20)

until there’s nothing at all yeah there’s nothing at all well there’s nothing at all to make her change her mind

8) ARGUE (2:58)

she don’t, but she will he says anything to keep her by him she takes what she gets, and she never did flinch, no

so over, and over, well anyone with any mind would think that’s all she gets (chorus) if you want you can get to know me well we get along so we shouldn’t argue, yeah and I don’t know yes, said I don’t know no all these feelings cloud up my reasoning cloud up my reasoning

I know, but I still believe in ignorance as my best defense so go on, wreck me funny how I carry on, and not be taken over will not roll over on anyone, cuz anyone would stand up on my side (chorus) you know it’s funny how sometimes, it don’t work out like you want to no you never get nothing at all then she tells you that it’s nothing at all then she tells you that it’s over, boy don’t you hate it when it’s over I guess something just got lost, and it deeply saddens me so over, and over anyone, who’s anyone (chorus)

9) KODY (4:03)

kody sat down on the avenue he tapped his feet, to the humming of the highway he watched the light shine down on the broken glass and thought I don’t got no reasons, yet there it is and there it was it was clear to all of us we kept this hat of broken dreams and we pulled them out, when we needed them around (chorus) so please hand me the bottle, I think I’m lonely now and please give me direction, I think the hurt set in and I don’t feel nothing

there’s a squeak hinge down on the back gate it lets us know if he comes around I don’t sleep that good anyway if you’ve never heard the silence, it’s a God awful sound (chorus) I don’t feel nothing, no I don’t feel nothing there’s nothing to feel good about here

don’t much get down to the avenue I could drive, but it takes so much to get there don’t get off on all the broken glass, the cadillac scene, well I’ve seen a lot of good things die and I’m in an over emotional way (chorus)

10) BUSTED (4:15)

I forget when words were only words she knows the party makes me nervous in this stage we can’t get hurt don’t try to understand me

we’re too cool to be alone but, not too crazy to get busted

I found out one life ain’t enough I need another soul to feed on I’m the flame I can’t get burnt I’m wholly understated

I found silence in this space an on and off again attraction I need such amazing grace heaven sweep me away (chorus) love don’t change, don’t come around here don’t wear my heart on your sleeve like a high school letter don’t strain, cuz nothing ever comes from it and the people we’ve become, well they’ve never been the people who we are

I strap on one horse and prayed for luck I dug another hole to bleed I know exactly how this works I need a new feel dirty

I don’t need you crowding up my space I just want to get inside you you can’t blame the heart you save giving something away (chorus) I dreamed that the world was crumbling down we sat on my back porch and watched it I dreamed that the buildings all fell down we sat on my back porch and watched it in my head I heard the sound like fifteen strangers dancing

but oh how I want you to know me oh how I want you to know me oh how I wish I was somebody else, baby oh how I wish you could own me (chorus)

11) SHAME (3:35)

what we learned here is love tastes bitter when it’s gone past yourself forget the light, things look dirty when it’s on funny how it comes to pass, that all the good slips away and there’s no one around you can remember being good to you

(chorus 1) shame, shouldn’t try you, couldn’t step by you and open up more shame, shame, shame

what we lost here is something better left alone second steps have been forgotten, will you tell me how they go set yourself, situate, like a fool try again there’s no one around you can remember being good, for you so

(chorus 2) shame, shouldn’t try you, couldn’t step by you, and open up more shame, shame, shame shame, shouldn’t try you, couldn’t step by you and open up more shame, shame, shame

we never thought we’d get so troubled we could never think that much it should never get this bad

so let the wind blow ya, across a big floor but there’s no one around who can tell us what we’re here for funny in a certain light, how we all look the same and there’s no one in life you can remember ever stood for you, so

12) HANG (3:47)

she grabs her magazines she packs her things and she goes she leaves the pictures hanging on the wall, she burns all her notes amd she knows, she’s been here too few years to feel this old

he smokes his cigarette, he stays outside ‘till it’s gone if anybody ever had a heart, he wouldn’t be alone he knows, she’s been here too few years, to be gone

and we always say, it would be good to go away, someday but if there’s nothing there to make things change if it’s the same for you I’ll just hang

the trouble understand, is she got reasons he don’t funny how he couldn’t see at all, ‘til she grabbed up her coat and she goes, she’s been here too few years to take it all in stride but still it’s much too long, to let hurt go (you let her go) and we always say, it would be good to go away, someday but if there’s nothing there to make things change if it’s the same for you I’ll just hang the same for you I’ll always hang well I always say, it would be good to go away but if things don’t work out like we think and there’s nothing there to ease this ache but if there’s nothing there to make things change if it’s the same for you, I’ll just hang
