1.Jimmy Olsen's Blues
Well, i don't think i can handle this
A cloudy day in metropolis
I think i'll talk to my analyst
I got it so bad for this little journalist
It drives me up the wall and through the roof
Lois and clark in a telephone booth
I think i'm going out of my brain
I got it so bad for little miss lois lane
Lois lane please put me in your plan
Yeah, lois lane you don't need no super man
Come on downtown and stay with me tonight
I got a pocket full of kryptonite
He's leaping buildings in a single bound
I'm reading shakespeare at my place downtown
Come on downtown and make love to me
I'm jimmy olsen not a titan, you see
He's faster than a bullet, stronger than a train
He's the one who got lucky got his cape around miss lois lane
I can't believe my dilemma is real
I'm competing with the man of steel
2.What Time Is It？
What time is it？
Four thirty
It's not late, naw, naw,
Just early, early, early
President, he sweat through his talcum
News paper man, he watch like a falcon
'ah, look...daddy-o...sorry, mr. president...where ya been？'
Use a little english to doctor the spin
What time is it？
Four thirty
It's not late, naw, naw,
Just early, early, early
It's my bread and butter
Ain got no other
It's on the tv
The spin's on me...
Ayatollah, he's hopping mad
Jibber about some damn jihad
Send me back to old baghdad
Spin doctor its oh so sad
What time is it？
Four thirty
It's not late, naw, naw,
Just early, early, early
It's my bread and butter
Ain got no other
It's on the tv
The spin's on me...
3.Little Miss Can't Be Wrong
Been a whole lot easier since the bitch left town
Been a whole lot happier without her face around
Nobody upstairs gonna stomp and shout,
Nobody at the back door gonna throw my laundry out
She hold the shotgun while you do-si-do
She want one man made of hercules and cyrano
Been a whole lot easier since the bitch is gone
Little miss, little miss can't be wrong
Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong
Ain't nobody gonna bow no more when you sound your gong.
Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong
What'cha gonna do to get into another one of these rock 'n' roll
Songs？
Other peoples' thoughts they ain't your hand-me-downs
Would it be so bad to simply turn around
You cook so well, all nice and french
You do you brain surgery too, with a monkey wrench
Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong...
I hope those cigarettes gonna make you cough
Hope you hear this song and it pissed you off
I take that back i hope your doing fine
And if i had a dollar i might give you ninety-nine
Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong....
4.Forty Or Fifty
Forty or fifty horses
Lying in a lot.
Red raincoats and rifles,
An epidemic has been stopped.
Scientist speaks what are you
Wondering about？
He got where he is by turning
Lab mice inside out.
The things we do
And have to do
The things i do for you
And what you do for me too
The 'yeah, but i...'
And any other excuse
And if you take it for given
Then what's the use
All his possessions
Around him in his house,
Lying beside him his
Companion and his spouse.
And in the morning
He dress and go to hell.
All activated by
A little timer bell.
5.Refrigerator Car
Your heart is a refrigerator car
It's cold and it never waits
Frozen breath and frostbite
Stacked, unopen crates
You never loved your frozen freight
Perishables and bloodless meat
You rolling snowball soul of sleet
You never wait....
You roll across desert
And clack across the sand
Though snakes may fry outside
Flowers crumble petrified in your hand
Your heart's a paid-off porter
You lied to spare your soul
With one are you bow your brains out
With the other you dig the hole
You never loved your frozen freight......
Grey ice in your hinges
Sliding doors shut frozen locked
Airtight every tiny hole
With hard white putty blocked
You never loved your frozen freight.....
6.More Than She Knows
I know she got everything she wants
I know she got everything she needs
I know she needs me more than she knows
I know she got everything she wants
I know she got everything she needs
I know she needs me more than she knows
She come on so sweet and kind
I wonder if i'm on her mind
She always turns away
I know i'll get her...one of these days...
I know she got everything she wants
I know she got everything she needs
I know she needs me more than she knows
7.Two Princes

8.Off My Line
I've been thinking lately
How to get you off my line
Don't seem all that easy but it
Feels alright
I've gotten rid of expectations
That i used to have
And we don't get along and it really ain't so bad
Somewhere in between the blue ＆ the red
'this is temporary,' is all she said
Someday things may be a little better than before
All these mysteries and they're knocking at my door
Alone in my room
I lay awake and dream
I'm sleeping half awake i got to
Try to explain
That i don't need your love and it
Means this much to me
I don't need your love woman won't you see
Somewhere in between the blue ＆ the red
'this is temporary,' is all she said
Someday things may be a little better than before
All these mysteries and they're knocking at my door
She must not realize
What this means to me
I figured out her disguise
Hey, mama, i'm not dreaming
(she's way off reality)
I've been thinking lately
How to get you off my line
Don't seem all that easy but it
Feels alright
I've gotten rid of expectations
That i used to have
And we don't get along and it really ain't so bad
[on the lyric sheet, mysteries is crossed out and memories
Has replaced it. but i have never heard him saymemories.]
9.How Could You Want Him(When You Know You Could Have Me)
I'm quite contented to take my chances
Against the guildensterns ＆ rosencrantses
It's a matter of cain ＆ abel
And i can feel your knee underneath the table
He doesn't dangle by the seraphim
He only wants a pretty face by him so
How could you want him when you know you could have me？
See the pigeons peck ＆ peck to pay the dues
They peck a little extra to resole their shoes
He's with the pigeons pecking crumbs
I'm on my deathbed bleeding with the cherubim
He doesn't dangle by the seraphim
He only wants a pretty face by him so
How could you want him when you know you could have me？
Ferocious angels send me falling stars
But i know just how dangerous wishes are
Ferocious angels watch me come and go
But i'm not too smart to go barging off of roof tops, though
Sit out september on the window sill
'cause you can't drink wine from a two dollar bill
Saint christopher lives on the end of a quill
Leave him a diamond in your last will
He doesn't dangle by the seraphim
He only wants a pretty face by him so
How could you want him when you know you could have me？
How could you want him when you know you could have me？ (x4)
10.Shinbone Alley
Moonlight through the chicken wire, humming windowpane,
Lukewarm water gasping down a rusty drain
Big town's in need of mending, street lights make tooth some
seams
Denim shadows shuffle in between the beams.
Different strokes for different folks so
Mind your manner and easy on the ethnic jokes
It's a dumbbell curve, your trying to tally,
All the way down to shin bone alley
Streets are metacarpal and flesh of asphalt calm
Buildings rise like fingers from a concrete palm
Yellow lit apartment trickle through the drapes
Windows frame each history hidden even from the fire escapes
Sullen winter sparrow lends wing to expanse of grey
Six-thirty-two in the morning on thanksgiving day
And the bums they hit their corners, the thunderbird rubs their
bones
And the crack addicts stare at the snowflakes zigzagging down to
greet jones
Different strokes for different folks so.....
Seven-thirty-two on the same day, your bare feet on the parquet
And the light so papery white shining past the microwave
Knuckles to eyeballs and elbows on the table
Spend the day gazing from the window gable....
11.Hard To Exist
You know how i tend to feel when nothing's happening
Like some big old bird so fat that he just can't fly
Far be it for me to be overreacting
My body hurts like hell and all i can do is wonder why
Like a man in prison, i'm occupied with busting out
I'm in no position said what are these walking blues about？
Hey mary come play with me please forget your lessons
Pete's off with captain hook and with cutlasses they play
I got a feeling you and me get along fine
Down on the beach in the fresh air with a jug of wine
Like a man in prison i occupied with busting out....
Aww yeah, i claim to be infected
Aww yeah point me in the right direction
The situation it's got the best of me
I gotta go on, you know, i gotta be strong
But it's hard to exist......
