Julie Is A TV Set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
A little pause before I start
I need a little time to think
Like the end of a board sawn off
The dream was just disturbance
Will you not disturb me?
Sunlight my dream I can hear it
Sunlight open wide I can see it moving
Sunlight my dream I can feel it touch me
Sunlight open wide
Let us climb to safety
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Some things change so very much
And others not one bit
Are we still the same?
Will our bodies fit?
I wish that you were here
To share this little thought:
Some things better doing
And some things better not
Sometimes try to hard
And sometimes not enough
Sometimes I feel so weak
Who says we’re that tough?
Rough
Stuff
Will our bodies fit?
Sunlight my dream I can feel it touch me
Sunlight open wide
Let us climb to safety
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie is a TV set
Julie…

Midnite News
There’re some people they’re just passing through
And they don’t know what they want to be
There’s a moment and it always comes
And it looks around for me
There’s a person with a charming smile
But you don’t hear a word he said
And there’s another and she walks around
In a trance just like she’s dead
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you read the papers every day?
Don’t you talk to people, don’t know how?
Don’t you see the TV fade away?
You’ve got pins and needles in your arm
And there’s a chance that they might find out
There are voices talking without sound
And there’s a lady but she don’t know how
There’s a reason but I couldn’t say
And there’s a shadow moving ‘cross the floor
I saw a rabbit she was falling, falling, falling
And there’s some movement in the crowd below
You don’t believe a word I say
You don’t believe a word I say
You don’t believe a thing I do
You don’t believe a thing I do
You don’t believe a word I say
You don’t believe a word I say
I know I want a thing or two
I only need a bit of you
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?
Don’t you listen to the midnite news?

Isolated (2024)

Isolated
You’re sitting alone in your little room
I wonder if you wonder if you’ve heard that before
The reason for this, a cliché is
You’re only one person out of millions of people
Driving your car
Playing your games
It doesn’t matter
Every day is the same
Drinkin’ your drink
Smokin’ your smoke
Guess no one’s told you but our lives are a joke
Nothing to do
Wait for the phone
No where to be
You’re all alone
Sitting at home
Laying in bed
Alone in your body
Alone in your head
Out in the city
You mix with the crowds
Nobody sees you
You’re all alone
Smokin’ your smoke
Drinkin’ your dirnk
Nobody cares what we really think
Nobody
Nobody
So who in this world really knows who you are?
Who in this world really knows what you feel?
Does anybody out there know what you want?
Nobody
Your’e all alone
Nobody loves you
Nobody hates you
You simply don’t matter
You’re all alone
Smokin’ your smoke
Drinkin’ your dirnk
Nobody cares what we really think
Nobody
Nobody
You’re sitting alone in your little room
I wonder if you wonder if you’ve heard that before
The reason for this, a cliché is
Hundreds and thousands and billions of people
Living in boxes
Watching their TVs
Sitting in silence
Watching their ceilings
Alone in the dark
Alone in their beds
Alone in their bodies
Alone in their heads
Smokin’ their smoke
Drinkin’ their drink
Nobody cares what we really think
Nobody
Nobody cares what we really think.

Dreamer Who Had Nightmares
A starlit night
A child’s delight
Now I’m a man whose dreams have all been shattered
Grew up too fast
Youth couldn’t last
My innocence was buried in the landslide
Dreams were all I had
I drives me mad to think of this
I was a dreamer who had nightmares
Don’t know the time
I lost my mind
Now I’m a man whose dreams have all been shattered
Dreams were all I had
I drives me mad to think of this
I was a dreamer who had nightmares
And though I don’t regret one solitary day
If I could take it back I’m not sure what I’d say
You took my hand
You understand
That I’m a man whose dreams have all been shattered
Dreams were all I had
It drives me mad to think of this
I was a dreamer who had nightmares
And dreams are all I had
I drives me mad to think of this
I was a dreamer who had nightmares

One mistake will change your life
Discipline is freedom
Discipline is freedom
Stay focused
Stay focused
Stay focused
Stay focused
When you drive, drive

The Lonely Ones
There stands a man and he stands alone
Yes he’s the lonely one
Standing there with his vacant stare
Yes he’s the lonely one
Thinks he’s the only one
Lonely as you
She walks alone on a silent street
She walks alone
As she strolls home
She’s lonely as you
Ooh, yes they’re the lonely ones
Yes they’re the lonely ones
Ooh, yes they’re the lonely ones
Think they’re the only ones
Lonely as you
It’s 4 AM on a silent street
It’s 4 AM yet they’ve chance to meet
It’s 4 AM yet they’ve stopped to speak
It’s 4 AM but they take this chance
and now they start to dance
So let’s dance
Yes they’re the lonely ones
Yes they’re the lonely ones
Yes they’re the lonely ones
Think they’re the only ones
Lonely as you
They’re lonely as you

Of Whales
You say 'hello' I hear that sound
I look around and then I turn and run
It doesn't mean that much to me
I say it's all been said and done
Too much to see too much to do
It's up to me it's up to you
No time to talk you'll stop my life
It goes so fast it goes too soon
Look up don't go look down below
They're watching you they're watching me
Help me
Help me
I pull the plug run out the door into the night I'm howling at the moon
They say I'm mad "a little strange" it's just another dog day afternoon
I can't believe
I cannot speak
I cannot hold a conversation
Just let me stare into your mind
I'll slowly bloat with information
Look up don't go look down below
They're watching you they're watching me
Help me
Help me
Whales beach themselves in suicide
Look up don't go look down below
They're watching you they're watching me
Look up don't go look down below
They're watching you they're watching me
Help me
Help me
Whales beach themselves in suicide
Whales beach themselves in suicide

Earth
I know who killed the planet Earth
It was me
It was me
It doesn’t seem like that much
But every little thing I touch
Affects my world to some degree
Although I can’t defend it
I just can’t seem to end it
My greed for everything I want and need
Like power cords
Christmas trees
Hardwood floors
Batteries
Candy bars, pickup trucks, greeting cards, drinking cups
Soda straws, bubble pack, vitamins, paperbacks
Telephones, masking tape, styrofoam, chocolate cake
Olive oil, birth control, potting soil, rock n roll
Cleaning rags, telescopes, plastic bags, liquid soap
Internet, chewing gum, cigarettes, hot dog buns
Styling gel, LEDs, stainless steel, bubble tea
Gasoline, oil change, coffee, tea, microwaves
Butane lighters, ink jet printers, magic markers, television
Fruit juice boxes, plastic razors, running water, elevators
I just don’t understand it
It’s not as though we planned it
We’ve gone to far, this is the end
I know who killed the planet earth
It was me
It didn’t seem like that much
It was me
It didn’t seem like that much
My greed for everything I want and need

Talking About
Some things are bigger than both of us
Other things are bigger than most of us
Other things are better if you don’t see
And other things might never ever let you be
Talking about
Talking about
Talking about
Talking about
Put yourself in my place
And I’ll put myself in your place
If you put yourself in my place
then I’ll put myself in your place
Some thoughts are better if they’re left behind
And other thoughts will slowly crawl into your mind
Some thoughts are better if they’re left alone
And other thoughts will follow you no matter where you go
Talking about
Talking about
Talking about
Talking about
Put yourself in my place my place
And I’ll put myself in your place
If you put yourself in my place my place my place
then I’ll put myself in your place
Talking about talking about
Talking about talking about
Talking about talking about
Talking about

And Without A Word
Without meaning to I touch
Through my eyes I can see you cry
Candles light up a darkened room
And without a word we’re broken
We’re broken
Oh we’re gone
Off on
Nothing touches me anymore
And I see how nothing every changes
Ever changes
Slowly watch my feelings rearrange
Change my life
Do it right
It’s not that easy
Touches me
Not that easy
No no no no it’s not that easy
Don’t you see?
Don’t you see?
Don’t you see how my heart weeps?

Open Window
I’m looking through an open window
Dirty with a broken pane
No one hears the words I sing
And over in the corner lies
A lamb in broadway’s city lights
And in the distance sits the fool
Who watches daytimes turn to nights
Around and around and around and around she goes
Around and around and around and around she goes
No one knows what I mean
Gravel road beneath my feet
Or walking on a city street
I try to be a city country boy
Staring crowds don’t bother me
They bother you but you can’t see
The way I like my friends to see
Around and around and around and around she goes
Around and around and around and around she goes
No one knows what I mean
No one hears the words I sing
7” 12” EP LP
Wheels of fire
I’m looking through an open window
Dirty with a broken pane
No one hears the words I sing
Staring crowds don’t bother me
They bother you but you can’t see
The way I like my friends to see
Around and around and around and around she goes
Around and around and around and around she goes
No one knows what I mean
Around and around and around and around she goes
Around and around and around and around she goes
No one knows what I mean
No one hears the words I sing

Part In Peace
Once again
Once again it’s time to go and say “I’ll see you”
Now it’s time
Let me part in peace and gently quietly leave you
Once in a while a special moment comes
And when it does we all know
Just let yourself go
Feel the emptiness inside you as you leave
Until we meet again
