Mmm baby
I been thinkin bout when you gave me
All of that love like you were savin it up for me
It was like beholdin
The impetus for all motion
Heliotropism & gravity
& when yer thirsty
You can capture me & immerse me
Oh that sound when yer surroundin me
I got the strength of 10 men: got the mind, got the root
Unto oblivion I’ll supply it to you
But you will never get enough & baby that’s a guarantee
Cause there ain’t no end
Ain’t no end
No end to an endless quest
There ain’t nothin like an endless quest
Nothin like an endless quest
No end to the endless quest
No end to the endless
End to the endless
Endless quest
Endless quest

It’s like ooh
I’m so into you
Whatever you wanna do
Don’t gotta hurry
Just gotta tell me when
It’s like ooh
I never met a girl like you
Yer like a wet dream come true
Dont gotta worry
I’m holdin out till then
It’s like Nothing Compares 2 U
It’s like Nothing Even Matters
Oh the way I’m gonna be with you
When we
When we more than friends
We’ve been friends since I don’t know when
So much has been happenin
10, 000 birds descend
From the firmament
On the long weekend
And now ooh
I’m walking home with you
Wanna talk a little more with you
That’s all that I’m hopin
& now it all depends
On you
Goin up on the porch with you
& yer takin me to your room
& the door’s swingin open & yer takin me to yer bed
It’s like Fly Me to the Moon
It’s like a Nautical Disaster
I’m all set & yer soakin wet
& now we
Now we more than friends
When we, when we
When we

Thunder Bay

Everywhere I go
It’s the same
It’s like I’m out on a boat
Tossed by the wind & the waves
& the navigation is broke
I can’t see the stars
I can’t get back to where you are
Can’t get back to where you are
Anywhere you are
Wound up on the coast
Yesterday
But what’s attracting me most
Is back in Thunder Bay
Aahhh
Anywhere that you are
It’s anywhere that you are
Anywhere you are
Back home, baby
Back home
Tell me how’s it been back home?
Oh, oh
I just wanna know
I still got a ways to go
All the things you saw
All the booze
All the character flaws
I can’t argue with you
But aahhh
I could steal a car
& get back to where you are
I could get back to where you are
Anywhere you are
Everywhere i go
It’s the same
Like I’m out on a boat
Drifting farther away
Aahhh
From
Thunder
Bay
buddy, if you wanna see that girl you better get to Thunder Bay
buddy if you wanna see that girl
you better get to Thunder Bay
cause if you love someone, if you love someone
you gotta all the things that you need to get done
& if you love someone
if you love someone
You better get’er done son
& go have some fun
in Thunder Bay
Thunder Bay, Thunder Bay
Thunder Bay, Thunder Bay

Gimme Shivers

If we’re not gettin it on, I’m probly thinkin bout it
The things she does, I could go on about it
& even if we speak
Just once or twice a week
I’m on that bus in a second cause of what she does to me
She gimme shivers
Goin up the stairway to my place
She went first
& she kept that booty swayin in my face
I said yes, my life is blessed
Oh yes, no doubt, she kept pokin it out while i undressed her
She took off her ring & put it on the dresser
& after everything
She left without her ring
A little while later, when she call me up, she said I’m comin back for that thing
She gimme shivers
Went out to the mall & met her at the Dennys
Got into her car & tore apart those panties
Then we’re standin in the parkin lot
She said you know that shit was hot
& she make me laugh, yeah we’re crackin up
Then she turn around, & when she back it up
She gimme shivers

Every Time
04:40

Every time I think of you
I know what I wanna do
It happens when i wake up
It happens through the break up
(time)
Every time that I think of you
(time)
Every time I think of you
On that hillside, morning dew
Birds go crazy & the sky does too
In posing for the planet
& I sorta understand it
(time)
Every time I think of you
(time)
Every time that I think of you
In a place of delight
In the warmth of the day
In the cool of the night
With an appetite
From far away
In the moonlight
Every time I think of you
Gets me potent but it leaves me blue
The singing of the spirit
Yeah, i always hear it
(time)
Every time I think of you
(time)
Every time I think of you
All them poems of a foolish youth
Get blown wide open but they tell the truth
Yeah, it’s never mending
Oh, it’s never ending
(time)
Every time I think of you
(time)
Every time I think of you
In a place of delight, in the warmth of the day, in the cool of the night
With an appetite, from far away, in the moonlight
Every time
Every time I think of you
Every time
Everytime I think
The moment I’m awake
Every time
Every time
In the moonlight
Every time
(everytime I think of you, everytime I think of you, everytime I think of you
everytime i think of you, everytime i think of you)
Every time, every time
Every time
Every time
Every
Time

The Hassle
04:46
|

|
Some people gonna try to tell you to do what you don’t wanna do
But don’t do it
If they keep tryin to, i’m remindin you
Just leave em alone
Criticisin, underminin you, that’s just what they do
So come on
Don't do it
You gotta go a little deeper
You gotta leave a lot behind you
You gotta throw away the beeper
So nobody can find you
You gotta hold it through the hassle
Often gotta overdo it
Act like a asshole
Get used to it
Some people gonna try to tell you to do what you don’t wanna do
But don’t do it
They might get a rise outta you, sometimes they do
But that needn’t be know
They always got advice for you, so wise so cool
& so on
But come on
Don’t do it
Own it
Keep it growin
Come on
Hold it through the hassle
Oh oh own it
Ho ho hone it
Through the ha ha hassle

Road Alone
05:45

Perseveration is
A kind of meaningless
Red leaf
On an
Empty tree
Shaking in the wind’s anxiety
Shaking with the wind’s anxiety
I guess the thinking is
That once the stimulus
Ceases
A response remains
Perseverating in yer brain
Making circles in, circles in the brain
& those remorseful thoughts
You hoard em up a lot
They do
Appear to
Tell the truth
But all they do is lie to you
Here’s a little something you can use:
You go down that road alone
If you got a while we can talk about it
Tell me where yer calling from
Put a little money in the phone
It’s the only thing we’ve ever know
& not a thing at all we can do about it
But bitch & whine & grive & groan
Put some money in the phone
& wander out of sight
Into the evening light
It’s golden
Till it’s
Overthrown
Goin down that road alone
Down that road, down that road alone

White Capris
05:22
|

I seen it shake when you come through the door
With a little more shake than it had before
Met you last year at the end of the bar
& you took me to the top of the hill
& you brought me to the basement floor
Got up on that ass, looked like a… centaur?
It’s hard to believe, & each time I see you girl, I still can’t believe it
I’ve been away, just got back today, hope that I’m still yer friend
Oh girl what you do to me
Get yerself a g & t
& you do it beautifully
You gimme a glance
Put down yer glass
Come on over & you say
Hi Brass
& you touch me with yer fingers
Lightly but it lingers
So you back in town?
Yeah I’m back in town
Let me grab my drink...
& you turn around
Not too fast, kinda languidly
With yer big fat ass
In yer white capris
(in yer white capris)
Now you got yer drink, you got me mesmerized
With yer perfect shape & yer perfect size
I wanna get those capris down yer thighs
& I’m thinking that I probably will
You got that look in yer eyes
Like, you bring the shake & I’ll bring the fries
It’s hard to believe, & each time I see you girl, I still can’t believe it
I’ve been away, & all I can say is we should do it again
Oh girl what you do to me
Get another g & t
Maybe another 2 or 3
& I pay in cash when I pay the tab
& you say thanks babe I’ll get the cab
Up to the escarpment
Back to yer apartment
Soft & round, soft & round
All these garments fallin down
Best for last, when we’re tryin to squeeze
Yer big fat ass
Out yer white capris
All the girls with the big fat ass
Time to get down now
Time to shake it around
All the girls with the big fat ass
Now it’s time to get down
Time to shake it around
Tell me, how’s that sound?
I could rephrase the statement
Cause it’s not a demand
I’ll find a better way to say it… hmm…
(white capris, white capris, in yer white capris)
No one in the world’s gotta listen to me
I use the word Girl cause syllabically
It’s just an easy word for a melody
So playfully
Respectfully
I’m askin all the girls who live out in Orleans
All the girls with a tambourine
All the girls from the Philippines
All the girls in quarantine
Ethiopian, Japanese
Caribbean, Portuguese
Scottish girls with the freckly face
& the Lebanese with the white capris
Shake it!
If you wanna shake it, shake it, yeah!
(in yer white capris)
