8) THE GRAND WHATEVER (breetveld)
You led me on, on a bus
All the way to Kendall Park
I followed your smile
You rescued me from above
Multi-channels to your heart
Cannot make a dumb boy smart
I waited all alone
[That day at Valerie’s pool]
I dreamt of you on the spot
[Something might happen, yeah]
Let’s make it happen

(chorus)
Your eyes said stay
And your mind made no objections
It’s making me crazy
I am not proud
I can be your grand whatever
It’s all that I live for

2- You wrestled me from the clouds
Painting flowers on my heart
I want you, come home
In case that we never part
All the happys I’d be blessed
Would be thine for e’re, my pest
And maybe after that
[This boy is wound up too high]
That means I must be the one
[there’s no forgetting, huh]
I keep forgetting

(chorus)
Our days go by
But our dream goes on forever
Or maybe I’m dreaming
I’m not so proud
I can’t do without whatever
I’ve much to "what up?" for

9) COWS IN YOUR BRAIN (breetveld)
Sweet Violet
Just gets by
Angry underneath
Her mouth gets dry
Doodies on her nails
Hair piled high
Camaro out the back
Cigarettes she buys
Thunder and lying,
The fears of her appearance
Tears in her old shoes
She buys out of clearance

Now she’s a creature-comfort-minded child
It goes to her head, right through her head
It figures by now she’d be linked to a cow
She’s got cows in her brain, cows in her brain

Freddy was the spy
Of his floor
Snitching to the boss
Fucking whore
Dying to succeed
He does his dirt
Never having friends
No pride to hurt
Blunder and flying
The fears of disappearance
He tools in the back
Lost security clearance

Now he’s the cream of ATT and flies
The air’s in his head
Wind-tunnel Fred
It’s certain, for sure, he’s no part of the cure
He’s got cows in his brain, cows in his brain
He’s got cows in his brain, cows in his brain

10) PLAY MYSELF SOME MUSIC (moore)
It's so quiet in here, hear the pin drop
oh what can I do?
There's nothin' to do, just plop down in a chair
listen to some tunes

Play myself some music
listen to side 2 first
play myself some music
pretend I did not lose you

I been so sad all day, watching the clock
oh what could I do?
My life is a bore, just lay down in the floor
listen to some songs

Play myself some music
listen to side 3 first
play myself some music
pretend I did not lose you

A ballad makes me think of you
a rocker makes me think of us
but silence makes me cry

I got all these records, but it's such a chore
to choose one
but I must play the game, get settled in the phones
listen to lps

Play myself some music
listen to side 4 first
play myself some music
pretend I did not lose you

Play myself some music
listen to side 1 first
drink myself some whiskey
pretend I did not lose you

A ballad/rocker makes me think of you
but silence makes me cry

11) PLEASE SOMEBODY (breetveld)
1- Please somebody
Say you love me
Let me be your man
My heart’s breaking
‘cause you’re not taking
The love I have for you
Every night in my dreams you’re there
My heart’s breaking
‘cause you’re not taking
The love I have for you

2- I should say good-bye and make you cry
But I haven’t got the nerve
You would turn red
And stay in bed
Which is all that you deserve
Then to think about you, I wouldn’t dare
I should say good-bye and make you cry
But I haven’t got the nerve
(bridge)
I would never think that you would leave me alone
I can’t live in peace because
You got me broken hearted once more
(solos)
(repeat bridge)

3- Please somebody
Say you love me
Let me be your man
My heart’s breaking
‘cause you’re not taking
The love I have for you
Every night in my dreams you’re there
I should say good-bye and make you cry
But I haven’t got the nerve
