clowns who never lost their laughter 00:03
lyrics
long ago as wanna be mavericks trying to light our little matches artwork and music blended words meant more than the singer intended we prayed for the day we were let in the club to cherish the sacred ticket stub time flew so much faster once in the rye, now the catcher we're still chasing after clowns who never lost their laughter through the years we learned the secrets learned the chords, learned the sequence hard work and friendship married love weighed more than the gear we carried we held on tight 'til the dream came true and time would tell what the future knew time flew so much faster once in the rye, now the catcher we're still chasing after clowns who never lost their laughter after all it doesn't matter if we get rich or just get fatter inside some minor changes the major theme just rearranges we fish for the ones who can take the joke and laugh 'til we go up in smoke time flew so much faster once in the rye, now the catcher we're still chasing after clowns who never lost their laughter

how high we climb 00:03
lyrics
mixing up a fact with a fake might be our very biggest mistake one more careless slip-up we cannot afford we come to a split in the road where everyone's opinions explode regulating systems with one accord how high we climb, how high we climb, how high we climb and don't know where we're heading how high we climb, how high we climb, how high we climb to fall down again and it gets under my skin trusting in the people who lead we bargain with the love that we need love can save a life at the end of the day they say that the hurting will end but nobody is certain when we can wash our hands of the choices we made how high we climb, how high we climb, how high we climb and don't know where we're heading how high we climb, how high we climb, how high we climb to fall down again and it gets under my skin waiting for a change more or less everyone gets sick of the stress maybe we should just throw away the tv the doctors and the teachers know best but no one knows who wrote the tests and no one can be sure if the cure is soon to be how high we climb, how high we climb, how high we climb and don't know where we're heading how high we climb, how high we climb, how high we climb to fall down again and it gets under my skin how high we climb, how high we climb, how high we climb how high we climb

if you and i are a song then i'm getting all the words wrong i keep trying to make it rhyme hoping you'll join in sometime you could fool me easily humming some dumb melody i would think our song's a hit but would you remember it? so i sing the song to you and you hum along with me sometimes we don't seem to find a harmony but then we meet each other's eyes and i can see you realize i'd play this song all day if you wanted me to if you and i are a game then our rules are not at all the same i keep playing nice and slow you beat me twice in a row but i keep on swinging away just in case i hit someday would it mean i'd have a chance to make a move and to advance? so i hit the ball to you and you hit the ball to me sometimes you slam it when i hit it nicely but then we meet each other's eyes and i can see you realize i'd play this game all day if you wanted me to if you and i are a road then we're moving a fragile load i could go or i could stay you only seem to move one way somewhere between hope and doubt spinning in a round-about could it mean i'll never know where this road could ever go? so i show the way to you and you show the way to me sometimes i wonder if it still will someway be but then we meet each other's eyes and i can see you realize i'd stay this way all day if you wanted me to

it's hard to impress anyone anymore and hard to express something not said before but you only have to know número uno the number one someone who you're writing for if you think that you've got something to say or something to play in a musical way just start to write, there's no right and no wrong you could write a song about writing a song you don't need to think that it needs to be deep you can dream up a song when you're deep in your sleep you don't need to think that you need to show off showing yourself is showing enough it's hard to impress anyone anymore and hard to express something not said before but you only have to know número uno the number one someone who you're writing for it could all be made up or entirely true just so it comes from the inside of you trying too hard is a hard way to go but something will come from the hard work you show writing is fun and it's all because there's only one thing to be sure that one does just be yourself, only you play that part everything comes from your head and your heart it's hard to impress anyone anymore and hard to express something not said before but you only have to know número uno the number one someone who you're writing for to know what you feel and what you're feeling for writing leads to writing leads to writing more

pain hurts 02:25
lyrics
you were doing homework in the morning in the kitchen while you spread the butter on your toast and ate it while you stapled all your papers but the butter on your fingers and the stapler made the stapler slip and staple through your finger tip and that is when it hurts bloody butter dripping and you're stapled to your homework and it hurts you can keep on trying but you're always close to dying pain hurts you were riding on your bike and getting close to school but when you got up to an intersection you were looking at a pretty student who was walking so you did not see the teacher driving right in front of you and you flew off your bike and that is when it hurts flying off your bike and then run over by the teacher and it hurts you can keep on trying but you're always close to dying pain hurts you were laying on a stretcher staring at the ceiling when the doctor said that you would have to stay there for a month and so you got up just to use the toilet but you did not know there was a tube inside your arm and you cut off your blood and that is when it hurts cutting off your blood supply and dying in a stretcher and it hurts you can keep on trying but you're always close to dying pain hurts you were dead and angels would not let you into heaven so the devil let you into hell to work for him by digging in the ashes that were burning and your contract was forever but forever is too long and so i have to end this song now and it hurts

single guy 00:03
lyrics
i'm single guy, single guy i don't have a girlfriend, please don't ask me why i'm single guy, single guy i never get the last piece of the pie i go into a bar and take a look around hoping that the girls don't smell that i'm a hound i walk up to a miss and ask her how she is the only thing she says is "good. bye." that's why i'm single guy, single guy women get a notion not to let me catch their eye i'm single guy, single guy i love fishing, but i always go home dry one time i met a girl and i thought i made the cut she talked to me all night until the bar was shut so then i told the chick "don't run away too quick" she said "i'm not, my boyfriend worked the bar all night" i'm single guy, single guy i always score a zero and that's my all-time high i'm single guy, single guy if charm could kill, i couldn't kill a fly one time a woman said "please come to my bed" i figured there was only one way that line could be read she brought me to her room and handed me a broom "there's a spider in my sheets!" was why i'm still single guy, single guy i'd be mister right, but i'm wrong each time i try i'm single guy, single guy my mother's even helping me, i wish that was a lie

sola 00:03
lyrics
(lyrics co-written by andrea pérez bejarano) sola todo a tu manera, sin tenerme presente solo mi ilusión siempre tu canción me dejaste cantando sola sola nada huele igual en la habitación aún no me dijiste que cambió, por qué te fuiste me despierto confundida, sola sola noches eternas, mirada vacía repito en mi pensamiento has empezado otro cuento? mi papel es quedarme sola

sometimes we wonder 00:03
lyrics
sometimes we like someone and we like them in a special way not like a pet they're more than that and we think about them everyday we wonder if they know and if they know we know they know and if we show that side will they go and hide so they won't have to say "no"? sometimes we need a friend to talk to about that special friend someone to say "it's best this way" when things don't go right in the end we wonder if it's guff do they want to hear our stuff? when they say "of course that's what friends are for" have they really heard enough? sometimes we write a song to help our feelings move along if we can sing about something our feelings may not hurt so long we wonder how the fall made us feel so weak and small then it starts to seem like a silly dream and nothing hurts at all sometimes we say "good-bye" and we don't feel that we need to cry it's good to know when we let go we find we're also saying "hi"

lyrics
wake up at dawn put dark clothes on still it's quite clear there's no deer here creep while we walk no one may talk still it's quite clear there's no deer here with every step no twig may snap still it's quite clear there's no deer here stay in a group look for their poop still it's quite clear there's no deer here find their hoof prints where they'd been since still it's quite clear there's no deer here search for horn marks in the tree barks still it's quite clear there's no deer here nightfall is near drink one more beer still it's quite clear there's no deer here

think 00:03
lyrics
a thought is a thing you think in your brain think a while and you can link your thoughts like a chain chain them all together and you'll think anything it would take forever to think everything now someone may think a very bad thought something they try not to think but they cannot not i think i can think of some so if it's okay here are some examples of some thinking today one day at a school in the art class one kid thought that he would make some art from his ass he shoved a big tube right up his rear end and shat through the tube into the ass of a friend a man was online and posted an ad eating someone's penis was the thought that he had sure enough he found a guy and cut off his pride he tried to feed it back to him but then the guy died then there was a man who needed some cash so he thought he'd enter in a bug-eating match first he ate worms, then cockroaches too just after he won he choked to death on his spew and there was a guy who was a rock star he thought if he hung himself his dick would get hard one day he was hanging from the knob of a door he had so much fun he couldn't breathe anymore the list just goes on and yes it's all true it's all on the internet for you to read through these are just examples of some people i found some end up in jail and some end up in the ground so if you have thoughts watch out where they go keep them safe inside you so that others won't know all your thoughts are locked up like a safe in your skull if you let them out your life will never be dull

tonight 03:05
lyrics
i'm freaking out tonight because the inside isn't doing right i'm freaking out tonight and i'm taking everything in sight you can tell the entertainers and the party masqueraders that i'm tipping all the waiters and i'm turning up the faders tonight i'm watching out tonight because so many say i don't live right i'm watching out tonight but i don't even want to start a fight you can tell the mediators and the big negotiators that i'm not a big debater and i won't be back later tonight i'm getting out tonight because my papers aren't looking right i'm getting out tonight and i'm leaving on a one way flight you can tell investigators and the mass communicators that i'm not an instigator i'm just living like a traitor tonight delegators, litigators, arbitrators, moderators, stipulators, educators, designators, postulators, inundators, calculators, generators, modulators, nominators, heads of staters, all just complicators tonight

tonight i drunk so much 05:06
lyrics
tonight i drunk so much i couldn't drunk no more i'm thanking all my angels for showing me the floor 'cause without a floor i'd be on air an astronaut with not a care i'd start to wonder what all this is for tonight i drunk so much that things are back the same her eyes, her nose, her lips that always said my name i used to think it was the drink that turned her back on me but she's back to me tonight like an old flame i told her i would never let another drink get in our way and if it asked me out to play i'd have to say "another day" i told her i would never drink until the drink was drinking me until it dragged me out to sea and let me sink in misery i told her i would never lie about the times when i was getting drunk enough to keep forgetting i was letting everything drift on by bye-bye tonight i drunk so much i never knew no pain i'd eat up that whole cake someone left out in the rain if i could sway a better way i'd have my final drink today but tonight a drink goes right straight to my vein

when i had hair 02:59
lyrics
when i had hair my memory was safe and sound up there i knew when my car last had repair ask me for directions, i knew where now all is lost from all the wear and tear back in the days when i had hair girls who knew my age still didn't care my wife was unaware of my affairs now i see a girl and i just stare i don't know if i'm wearing underwear when i had hair i danced around like i was fred astaire i did anything just on a dare but getting any action now is rare i can barely get out of a chair back in the days when i had hair i felt like a multi-millionaire with more than my fair share of fame and flair now i'm a scary nightmare all that's left to lose is all my air

when you drank 04:22
lyrics
do you remember when you drank and you told me i will always be the one you have to thank for the memories, the kind reminders of the way you were when you drank early one morning after the bar you were still drinking and you could not find my toilet in the dark in the light of day i found my bed was wet and you had no alibi because i had no pet you had a singing gig, your band was pretty known but you said after we could leave and make some music of our own you were nowhere to be found when you were through you were in the men's room and your bass player was in you do you remember when you drank and you told me i will always be the one you have to thank for the memories, the kind reminders of the way you were when you drank we had a break-up for a little while so i was seeing other women just to have myself a smile one day you came by to fix your broken heart you proved your love by breaking my guitar then late one evening you took a little drive and you said the words that always made you feel more alive but they mean less now since you took that turn "there's always time to live and learn" do you remember when you drank and you told me i will always be the one you have to thank for the memories, the kind reminders of the way you were when you drank

they don't ask why
lyrics
time just got away again i don't know how i keep missing my train maybe i don't need to be anywhere else than where i was just then i'll be just fine doing my thing everyone else can go on wandering maybe i'll sit here asking why why all the world and the sky or i can be happy that i i have the time to watch people go by animals fly, they don't ask why i forgot my way again maybe this leads me to back where i was i always fine there's something new i'll let the others keep searching because i'll be just fine doing my thing everyone else can go on wandering maybe i'll sit here asking why why all the world and the sky or i can be happy that i i have the time to watch hours go by animals fly, they don't ask why
