Pretty Hot
It's poetry, when she talks,
and she dances, when she walks.
Her hair falls, in ringlets,
but her mood, can run scarlet.
She moves to a song only she can hear.
She says, “stay away and then begs you near.”
A crying jag and she's torn her dress.
Her mascara's run but she's
Pretty, Pretty Hot
A pretty hot mess
A pretty hot mess
She's torn her dress
A pretty hot mess
A broken heel, could be worse.
The club called, with your purse.
Who let you out, like that?
Smeared lipstick, pussy cat.

Duplicity
You're my favorite conversationalist.
With off hand, streams of consciousness.
A true, sonic, impressionist.
Whispering, ars gratia artis
Chorus: My evil twin, well where ya been? Ya know I missed you my friend.
You know it's alright, now that it's moonlight, to let those feelings rush in.
My evil twin, with bad decisions, oh why'd I let you in?
We're off the rails now, goin' down now, Oh no not this mess again.
We, won't toil away in obscurity.
This, won't end in futility.
Self doubt, embarrassment, humility.
Arrogance, confidence, duplicity.
Chorus

Too far Gone
Her band's a sonic blower
She dances and swirls
She's a natural composer
An irresistible girl
The floor falls away
She's louder than jets.
With her, there's no gray
She's got no regrets
She's out on a higher plane. She's too far gone!
We can't look away
She's a slow motion crash
A fracture on the X-ray
Uphill, jagged and brash
She can't dance any faster
Ooooh, My head!
It's the sound of her laughter
Honey's dead!
She's out on a higher plane
She's too far gone!

Bad Actor
Shopping, in the produce aisle
When I see you and your risque smile
I'm rumpled, but you're so put together
That my name, I can't remember.
Patiently, well her hair she twirls
and I'm in love with American curls.
Stumbling as I try to speak
Your number, is so out of reach
and I want you, I'd crawl through glass just to see your
and I want you, I'm coming up the stairs just to kiss you
Faster, I'm in love with her laughter,
Faster, I'm such a bad actor
Faster, this is such disaster
Faster, let's go out tonight
The library, well who goes here anymore?
God damn, is that you by the door?
I'm a paperback, and you're a kindle,
Let's do it here, between the book ailses.
and I want you, I'd crawl through glass just to see your
and I want you, I'm coming up the stairs just to kiss you
Faster, I'm in love with her laughter,
Faster, I'm such a bad actor
Faster, my therapist says just ask her
Faster, to go out tonight

Trainwreck
She’s gonna leave town, gonna miss her appointment.
She’s stopped takin’ her meds and I think she enjoys it.
She’s printed out her emergency contacts.
She’s a little excited, but don’t you overreact.
Chorus:
She’s a bad girl, such a bad girl, with a good, a good imagination.
In her world, in her world a psychotic break is like a vacation.
It’s her sweat, and her sex, and her smell that I find appealing.
She’s so direct, and perfect, she don’t wanna hold hands and talk about our feelings.
Her dad always said, “she’s a little bit spirited.”
What I think he meant was, “proceed at your own risk.”
When our band plays, she really gets into it.
Can’t bail from this train, gotta see how it all ends.
Chorus

Vickie Marie
Oh could I be the protagonist in your story?
Or is it now that you just deplore me?
A touch and a taste, It wasn't just sensory.
Do I ever surface in your memories?
Oh Vickie Marie....Come see about me
Oh Vickie Marie....Do you remember me?
Oh Vickie Marie....Come see about me
If you won't give us, another chance.
Could you please return, my brown pants?
And that Zanesville album that you borrowed,
'Cuz I guess for us, there's no tomorrow.
Chorus
Remember that show at the State, that we went to?
'Cuz I can't, I've forgotten all about you.
You don't even know... my favorite color.
...but if you haven't moved on, and found another lover.

Tornado
Do you hesitate, or are you fashionably late?
I can't stand by, I can feel your sigh.
Are there blue skies? Are you gun shy?
Are you proud to fall? Or sick of it all?
Pre Chorus: Cuz I'm the one, who's under the gun. Coming out of the gate, with your foot on the brake.
Chorus: I don't want to wait.
Stop trying to fight our fate.
You're such a mess, it's emotional chess.
Giving me vertigo, a fickle tornado.
A work in progress, and I obsess
An unfair test, and you protest.
Pre Chorus---------->Chorus
You're dancing eyes, will be my demise.
A window to your soul, or a black hole.
A magnetic pole, no damage control.
A barrel roll, to thrill your soul.
Pre Chorus ---------> Chorus

You Murder Me
Need some quiet time, alone to unwind
Take some time off, hide out from the boss
Gonna drop out, then I hear you shout
Sounds pretty dire, like your hair's on fire
Chorus: You... yeah you murder me,
and it's true... you won't set me free
It's you... you murder me,
Yeah, you
Time is so elusive, but so therapeutic
Is it the human condition, or the price of admission?
Wanna cool your jets, take a recess
You mention inadvertently, another small emergency
Chorus....to Bridge
You never hesitate, my favorite help mate
Hey nothing's shocking, why you still talking?
I've promised my time, and given up controll
So sign your name, across my soul.
Chorus

Bulletproof Heart
Hey Baby, Don't Let's Start
and we'll avoid bein' torn apart.
What did the doctor write in your chart?
Patient suffers from a bulletproof heart.
Chorus: Aww man, that's gotta smart
Even if, ya gotta bulletproof heart
A saucy quip, a flirty remark
You've well versed in those arts.
Barely dressed, such a rosey tart,
I'm immune, I'm much too smart.
Chorus: Oooh baby, that'll leave a mark
Even if, ya got a bulletproof heart
We got a journey, we won't embark
Old ideas, about court and spark
Oooh my, but how you look the part.
You're so naughty, and oh so smart
Chorus: Aww man, that's gotta smart
Even if, ya got a bulletproof heart
Am I, the biggest fool of them all?
I didn't see, the writing on the wall.
It was you, for whom I'd fall.
You've broken down, my bulletproof wall.
Chorus 2X

Sling Shot
This town is too small
and my songs are to big
I'm not takin' calls
I've found a new gig.
We've packed up the house
and cleaned up the yard
We had the garage sale
now where's my guitar
Chorus: Don'tcha know I'm a sling shot baby
ain't comin' back like no boomerang
Don'tcha know I'm a sling shot baby
I'm hittin' the road; the fat lady....has sang.
My history fades
in the rear view mirror
The windows are open
and the future is clearer
This time when I leave
well I ain't comin' back
I'm burnin' the tires and
I'm pickin' up slack
Chorus: Instrumental Chorus:
