1.Sign Of The Times
Lyrics:Jack Blades
Music:Jack Blades
I like watching sunsets
With no particular plans
I like drinking Jack and Coke
In some far away land
I like Rolling Stones records
They take their tea at three
I like making love outside
underneath a big oak tree
I like building castles
When they're made out on sand
I like watching the waves of the ocean
Wash away the works of man
Innocent pearl
Smash mouth girl
Will you share my world
Sign of the Times
Sign on tomorrow
Maybe I'm already there
Light up the sky
I'm too high to follow
The Sign of the Times
Hey hey hey
Do you like foreign movies
Like water for chocolate
Do you like walking in the rain
With holes in your pockets
Do you like drinking coffee
At an outdoor cafe
Dissing all the people
They're just trying to live their lies away
Smash their pearls
Trash their world
That's my girl
Sign of the Times
Sign on tomorrow
Maybe I'm already there
Light up the sky
I'm too high to follow
The Sign of the Times
Hey hey hey
The last I heard
Someone took my pot of gold
From the end of the rainbow
Sign of the Times
Sign on tomorrow
Maybe I'm already there
Light up the sky
I'm too high to follow
The Sign of the Times
Hey hey hey
Sign yea Sign yea Sign yea
Sign of the Times
Hey hey hey
I'm already gone
I'm too up to follow
The Sign of the Times
Yea yea yea

3.Panic In Jane
Lyrics:Jack Blades/Kelly Keagy
Music:Jack Blades/Kelly Keagy
Superficial conversation
Never going my way
Always something there to remind you
Life is a bowl of clay
There she sits in
Silent confusion
While the world spins
Gold into hay
Pressure building
Under her makeup
It's not a very good day
There's a Panic in Jane
What will she do
Drive me insane with her conversation
A day in the life
And the world crashes down
There's only one way
Go with the Panic in Jane
What's the matter
World's got her humming
A different tune for the day
Mind's expanding
Why all this madness
Is it real or a game that she plays
Get the message
Mutant down under
She cries in silence for love
Will she stumble all of her lifetime
Or burn like the morning sun
There's a Panic in Jane
What will she do
Drive me insane with her conversation
A day in the life
And the world crashes down
There's only one way
Go with the Panic in Jane
Panic in Jane
Can she ever see
Why can't she believe
What it takes to find love is a lifetime
So open the door
Let go of the past
It's just there it exists to remind you
Where you are
And where you want to do yea
There's a Panic in Jane
What will she do
Drive me insane with her conversation
A day in her life
And the world crashes down
There's only one way
Go with the Panic in Jane
Go with the Panic in Jane
Panic in Jane
Panic in Jane
Panic in Jane
yea yea yea yea yea yea
Panic in Jane
Panic panic panic in Jane
4.Don't Ask Me Why
Lyrics:Jack Blades
Music:Jack Blades
Looking down the road where I've been
Can anything last forever
Still I take my chances
Looking for the answers
I need somebody oh
I think I'm falling for love
And the morning here it comes
And I'm lying next to you
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
I told you once before that I don't know
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
I told you once before that I don't know
What is this road we call life
Can you tell it to a dreamer
Maybe there's a reason
You and me together
I need somebody strong
I think I'm falling apart
And I'm too tired to pretend
Can I see you once again
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
I told you once before that I don't know
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
I told you once before that I don't know
Maybe I should stay up for a while
(Maybe I maybe I)
Paint a picture Wan Gogh with a smile
(Maybe I maybe I)
And you could play with this puzzle
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
I told you once before that I don't know
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
I told you once before that I don't know
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
I told you once before that I don't know
Oh oh oh oh
I told you once before that I don't know
5.Kong
Written:Mark Hudson/Jack Blades/Tommy Shaw
Oh no
I got that funky feeling
Just slipped out of a Coupe de Ville
Scrape me off the ceiling
Oh yeah
Too good to believe in
Rubber lover tugging on a daisy chain
Going coming
Here I go again
In the middle of the evening
So damn sweeter
I got a penny in my pocket
To release that child within you
I don't want no one night stand
Jump into the fire from the frying pan
King Kong had a perfect plan
Got to get a woman
I've had a barbie doll
I've done it all
Short ones tall ones big and small
But King Kong baby he had a ball
That's my kind of living
Oh yea
Why am I complaining
I got money and I'm funny
And I'm semi-good looking
Keeps me good and lucky
Sometimes
I feel like Sodom and Gomorrah
But I tell you pretty mama I could use a little more of
You you you you
About two in the morning
I get so damn easy
Let your fingers do the walking
And it won't take much to please me
I don't want no one night stand
Jump into the frie from the frying pan
King Kong baby he had a plan
Got to get a woman
I had a barbie doll
I've done it all
Short ones tall ones big and small
But King Kong baby he had a ball
That's my kind of living
Why can't I have it all
I just wanna have some kinda fun
Why can't I have it all
Can it be over with it's just begun
I need it I want it
I'm frantic I gotta have it
Automatic manic addict democratic
About two in the morning
It gets so damn easy
Let my fingers do the walking
and the others do the talking
about the way and how to please me
I don't want no one night stand
Jump into the fire from the frying pan
King Kong baby he had a plan
Got to get a woman
I had a barbie doll
I've done it all
Short ones tall ones big and small
But King Kong baby he had a ball
That's my kind of living
Yea that's my kind of living
Yea that's my kind of living
6.Mother Mayhem
Written:Jack Blades/Pat Macdonald
You mother me
You ooze affection
You smother me
With protection
When I'm in need
You pour me your sweet cider
And when I bleed
You tie the tournquiet tighter
Wild daisies
Poking up thru the residue
While I
Take my chances
Hanging round down by Slagtown
Say goodbye
Mother Mayhem
You hit me hard
Like a bolt of lightning
Then you kiss me softly
Just to further confuse
You leave me alone
I'm begging on my knees
Then you carry me home
Like a bag of groceries
Wild daisies
Pushing up thru the residue
While I
Take my chances
Hanging round down by Slagtown
Say goodbye
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Alright
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Yea yea yea
When I sleep
You leave the light on
And when I weep
You dry my eyes with nylon
Industrial grade woman
Your smikestack's rising
The toast is on fire
And your baby is flying
Wild daisies
Pokin up thru the residue
While I
Take my chances
Hanging round down by Slagtown
Say goodbye
Wild daisies
Pushing up thru the residue
While I
Take my chances
Hanging round down by Slagtown
Say goodbye
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem.. Yea yea yea
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Mother Mayhem
Yea yea yea Mother Mayhem

9.Peace Sign
Lyrics:Jack Blades/Brad Gillis
Music:Jack Blades/Brad Gillis
I was born
In the heart of America
And I was raised
By a hard working mom
We didn't have as
Much that you'd call anything
But what we had
Was a whole lotta love Alright
Then I met
A girl from California
Her name was Feather
Or something like that
Her folks were Hippies
From a farm up in Oregon
The kind of place
The DEA would love to whack
She said, 'Take my hand
I've been here before
I need a barefoot lover
Wanna do it on the floor
I'm gonna live my life
Like there's no tomorrow
It's a beautiful wave'
Power to the Peace Sign
She didn't mind me
Asking lots of questions
About her beads
Or the way she wore her hair
She never shaved
Her legs looked kinda guy like
But what's the difference
On a beach naked bare
So take my hand
I've been here before
I need a barefoot lover
Wanna do it on the floor
I'm gonna live my life
Like there's no mana
It's a beautiful wave
Power to the Peace Sign
Oh happy day
Oh happy day
Power to the Peace Sign
(Peace Sign)
(Peace Sign)
Oh happy day
Oh happy day
Now here I am
On some farm up in Oregon
Growing flowers
At 50 cents a day
And Feather runs a
Multi mega corporation
Taking down millions
Oh happy day
So take my hand
I've been here before
I need a barefoot lover
Wanna do it on the floor
I'm gonna live my life
Like there's no tomorrow
It's a beautiful wave
Power to the Peace Sign
Take my hand
I've been here before
I need a barefoot lover
Wanna do it on the floor
I'm gonna live my life
Like there's no mana
It's a beautiful wave
Power to the Peace Sign
(Yea Yea Yea)
Power to the Peace Sign
(Yea Yea Yea)
Power to the Peace Sign
(Yea Yea Yea)
Power to the Peace Sign

13.Let Him Run
Written:Jeff Watson/Jack Blades/Kelly Keagy
Strap on your safety belt
Blazing in the sky
Thinking of nothing
No disguise
What happened to the one
The one you thought you knew
Did he just take away
What is missing in you
Let him run
Till he sees what he has done
Let him go on
Having all his fun
Mmm let him run
Take off your rocket shoes
And the straps from your wings
Wishing for miracles
Hear the young boys sing
What will you say to him
When he's back at your door
Got no time for users
I don't need you anymore
Let him run
Till he sees what he has done
Let him go on
Having all his fun
Let him cry
See the tears fall from his eyes
Let him run
Run run run run run
