Lasso The Muse

something clicked when i saw you...something clicked when the crosshairs met...something followed me down and the sound...it followed me too...and finally you
i know why you took your coat off...i know why you decided to stay...thought you’d lasso the muse
didn’t you…want to lasso the muse...keep it for you
I think police get a bad wrap...i think the police have got a lot to do...can’t just lasso the muse
tune it too...handcuff it for me...to share it with you
to share it with you

think i’ll lose me another fair fight
what’s a loser to do?
guess i’m losing my next fair fight… to you
come on come on… come on come on
[bring it on bring it on]
now that moment has finally come
now that moment has passed
things like moments are fine... but they sure don’t last
come on come on… come on come on
[bring it on bring it on]
take another best shot… come on come on
[blame it on blame it on]
from the time of your birth
to your ride in the hearse… ain’t nothin so bad...
what it might a been worse
come on come on… come on come on
[bring it on bring it on]
take your second best shot… come on come on
[blame it on blame it on]

you ain’t got to worry. no one at your back. no one out to give you your first heart attack. don’t know what you got but you know every thing that you lack. you got a clean falcon ranchero. how many doods could say that?
i got lots a money. got all kind a friends. got this box a candy. come on let me in. i know what’s the matter here: you think i’m too good for you. you drive a falcon ranchero; how could it be true?
no one out to get you. schemes to bring you down. we don’t talk about you when you ain’t around. i can tell you’re angry; really couldn’t say what about. you got a falcon ranchero. you hardly ever take it out.

out in the wind i’ve no idea where you been all the same i’ll take you in beg you to use me again out on the waves float on the sea foam and spray some things they can’t be contained some things you can’t give away
[music]

Play Ball
04:26
|

|
hand on a wire, hand on a limb
hand on a button, press it again
hands in a window; cold knuckle steel
hands dressed in silver… touch on a wheel
play ball
play ball
play ball
he belongs to the company now
printing paper and passing it out
get the cards honey i get the dice
take the money and not the advice
wheel on a window
wheel on the ground
wheel of surrender
roll it around
pick you a pigeon…
hole into crawl…
pick you a livin
spot in the wall
play ball
play ball
play ball
he belongs to the company now
printing paper and passing it out
get the cards honey i get the dice
take the money and not the advice

Branded Knees
03:29
|
|||
|
i am the real thing...
those words just don’t mean anything
much like talent means without clever marketing
it’s what you make of it don’t make it such a drag
it’s what you make of it don’t make it bad
label me please i’m on my branded knees
with aesthetic needs; spray-on sweat t’keep my work boots clean
it’s what you make of it don’t make it such a drag
it’s what you make of it don’t make it bad
nobody listens with their eyes closed after all… why try to rise above the scribbles on the bathroom stall?
it’s what you make of it don’t make it such a drag
it’s what you make of it don’t make it bad

Dead Horse
05:36
|
|||
|
we went up to the mountain top
To breathe thin air for a while
knelt to drink from a cool mountain stream and fell in and drifted for miles
cool yourself, calm yourself
be the peace you need in someone else
hold me lord heal me lord
be the peace that i could not afford
we awoke in the valley...
and gazed at the stars overhead
and the peaks there above us
look down on our river rock bed
cool yourself, calm yourself
be the peace you need in someone else
hold me lord heal me lord
be the peace that i could not afford
not that it ever came easy
not as if anything should
more like beating a dead horse
and waiting for it to feel good
cool yourself, calm yourself
be the peace you need in someone else
hold me lord heal me lord
be the peace that i could not afford

there. ain’t. no damn body gonna pull my teeth
got to keep this kill instinct
intact for a battle or a bite for two
with a major dude like you and it’s
good fun bitchin but if that gets old
and you want to rock and roll… let me know.
(come on baby won’t you let me know)
If you wanna rock and roll… let me know.
(come on baby won’t you let me know)
looks like somebody done pulled my teeth
ain’t got the kill instinct
no more for me i’m drivin home soon
back to my bedrock moon
light down to the river it’s oh so low
and i want to rock and roll… let me know

Return The Favor
04:01
|

|
whoever said that the time flies never spent a weekend with you...never had to listen to your hard luck stories and wonder if they’ll ever come true…whoever said she was my girl...take another look in her eye...can’t you see a legion of lips gone cold and purple as an evening sky
you could die for rock and roll...but don’t expect her to return the favor...if you’re lucky she’ll remember you later...i guarantee she don’t return the favor...but if you’re lucky she’ll remember you later on
while you were layin your life down she was makin glances at me...she began to fabricate your darkest secrets slowly i began to believe
you could die for rock and roll...but don’t expect her to return the favor...but if you’re lucky she’ll remember you later...i guarantee she don’t return the favor...but if you’re lucky she’ll remember you later on

Subtle Change
04:13
|
|||
|
this is a powder you choke down at night
night is an echo and you heard it right
right here a symphony
is playin on strings out of tune
now is your chance to regret
what you’re tryin to do
yeah we all know the drill
how it’s all fun and games up until
that strange subtle change… eases in
come after sundown and drink you a beer
come let your guard down and shrug off a fear
once you were my girl
now i got nothin to do
the dogwoods ain’t much to look at
when it ain’t time to bloom
and we all know the drill
how it’s all fun and games up until
that strange subtle change… eases in

What It Is
04:10
|
|||
|
if it were not what it was
than it could not be what it…
i don’t suppose
I know that i could’a done better
I know that i could’a done more
and if not for what it is
what’s to come would never be…
for what it’s worth
I know that i could’a done better
I know that i could’a done more
I know the pain and the pleasure
I know the blood around my door
where the pine trees meet the sky
where the lone clay pigeon flies
I know i cannot relate
if i’m honest i know i cannot relate
I know that i could’a done better
I know that i could’a done more
I know the pain and the pleasure
I know the blood around my door
mine is the blame and the glory
mine is the blood around your door
