Radio
Free Europe (original hib-tone single)
Beside yourself if radio's gonna stay
Reason: it could polish up the grey
Put that, put that, put that in your wall
That this isn't country at all
Raving
station, beside yourself
Keep
me out of country in the word
Deal the thought is easily absurd
So don't let's, don't let's, don't let's carry it far
That that push and followed us too far
Straight
off the boat, where to go?
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio Free Europe, radio...
Beside
defying media too fast
Instead of putting, carry it up the fall
Push that, push that, push that up your wall
That this isn't nothing at all
Raving
station, beside yourself
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio Free Europe, Radio Free Europe
Decide
yourself, calling all of us
Keep
me out of country in the word
Reason: it could follow up absurd
Straight
off the boat, where to go?
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio Free Europe, Radio Free Europe
Calling on in transit, calling on in transit
Radio Free Europe, Radio Free Europe
Gardening
At Night (different vocal mix)
I see your money on the floor, I felt the pocket change,
though all
the feelings that broke through that door just didn't
seem to be too real
The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my
eyes, somewhere
it must be time for penitence, gardening at night is never
where
Gardening at night... Gardening at night... Gardening
at night...
The
neighbors go to bed at ten
Call the prayer line for a change
The charge is changing every month
They said it couldn't be arranged
We
ankled up the garbage sound, but they were busy in the
rows
We fell up, not to see the sun, gardening at night just
didn't grow
I see your money on the floor, I felt the pocket change,
though all
the feelings that broke through that door just didn't
seem to be too real
Gardening at night... Gardening at night... Gardening
at night...
Your
sister said that you're too young
She should know she's been there twice
The call was 2 and 51
They said it couldn't be arranged
We
ankled up the garbage sound, but they were busy in the
rows
We fell up, not to see the sun, gardening at night just
didn't grow
The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my
eyes, somewhere
it must be time for penitence, gardening at night is never
where
Gardening at night... Gardening at night... Gardening
at night...

Central Rain
Did you never call? I waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The trees will bend, the cities wash away
The city on the river there is a girl without a dream
I'm
sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Eastern
to Mountain, third party call, the lines are down
The wise man built his words upon the rocks
But I'm not bound to follow suit
The trees will bend, the conversation's dimmed
Go build yourself another home, this choice isn't mine
I'm
sorry, I'm sorry
Did
you never call? I waited for your call
These rivers of suggestion are driving me away
The ocean sang, the conversation's dimmed
Go build yourself another dream, this choice isn't mine
I'm
sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
(Don't
Go Back To) Rockville
Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the station
for a bus
Going to a place that's far, so far away and if that's
not enough
Going where nobody says hello, they don't talk to anybody
they don't know
You'll wind up in some factory that's full time filth
and nowhere left to go
Walk home to an empty house, sit around all by yourself
I know it might sound strange, but I believe you'll be
coming back before too long
Don't
go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
And waste another year
At
night I drink myself to sleep and pretend I don't care
if you're not here with me
'Cause it's so much easier to handle all my problems if
I'm too far out to sea
But something better happen soon or it's gonna be too
late to bring you back
Don't
go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
And waste another year
It's
not as though I really need you
If you were here I'd only bleed you
But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down
and that's not how it ought to be
I know it might sound strange, but I believe you'll be
coming back before too long
Don't
go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
And waste another year
Don't
go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
Don't go back to Rockville
And waste another year
Can't
Get There From Here
When the world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Kick the clay that holds the teeth in
Throw your trolls out the door
If
you're needing inspiration
Philomath is where I go, my dream
Lawyer Jeff he knows the low-down
He's mighty bad to visit home
(I've
been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
When
your hands are feeling empty
Stickheads jumping off the ground, ground
Tris is sure to shirr the deers out
Brother Ray can sing my song..ong..ong
(I've
been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here, here, here
(I've been there I know the way)
Hands
down, Calechee bound
Land locked, kiss the ground
The dirt of seven continents going
round and round
Go on ahead Mr. Citywide, hypnotize, suit and tie
Gentlemen testify
If
your world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Philomath they know the low-down
Throw your trolls out the door..oor..oor
(I've
been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
Can't get there from here
(I've been there I know the way)
(Thank
you, Ray)
Driver
8
The walls are built up, stone by stone
the fields divided one by one
And the train conductor says
"Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break
We've been on this shift too long"
And
the train conductor says
"Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"
I
saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the farm
The power lines have floaters so the airplanes won't get
snagged.
Bells are ringing through the town again,
Children look up, all they hear is sky-blue, bells ringing
And
the train conductor says
"Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"
Way
to shield the hated heat
Way to put myself to sleep
Way to shield the hated heat
Way to put myself, my children to sleep
He
piloted this song in a plane like that one
She is selling faith on the Go Tell crusade
Locomotive 8, Southern Crescent, hear the bells ring again
Field to weed is lookin' thin
And
the train conductor says
"Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break
We've been on this shift too long"
And the train conductor says
"Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break
We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"

Fall
On Me
There's a problem, feathers, iron
Bargain buildings, weights and pullies
Feathers hit the ground before the weight can leave the
air
Buy the sky and sell the sky and tell the sky and tell
the sky
Don't
fall on me (What is it up in the air for) (It's gonna
fall)
Fall on me (If it's there for long) (It's gonna fall)
Fall on me (It's over it's over me) (It's gonna fall)
There's
the progress we have found (when the rain)
A way to talk around the problem (when the children reign)
Building towered foresight (keep your conscience in the
dark)
isn't anything at all (melt the statues in the park)
Buy the sky and sell the sky and bleed the sky and tell
the sky
Don't
fall on me (What is it up in the air for) (It's gonna
fall)
Fall on me (If it's there for long) (It's gonna fall)
Fall on me (It's over it's over me) (It's gonna fall)
Don't fall on me
Well
I would keep it above
But then it wouldn't be sky anymore
So if I send it to you, you've got to promise to keep
it whole
Buy
the sky and sell the sky and lift your arms up to the
sky
And ask the sky and ask the sky
Don't
fall on me (What is it up in the air for) (It's gonna
fall)
Fall on me (If it's there for long) (It's gonna fall)
Fall on me (It's over it's over me) (It's gonna fall)
Don't fall on me (What is it up in the air for) (It's
gonna fall)
Fall on me (If it's there for long) (It's gonna fall)
Fall on me (It's over it's over me) (It's gonna fall)
Don't fall on me

You're better best to rearrange
I'm talking here to me alone
I listen to the finest worksong

It's
The End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
That's great, it starts with an earthquake,
birds and snakes, an aeroplane, Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn,
world serves its own needs, don't mis-serve your own needs.
Feed it up a knock, speed, grunt, no, strength, no.
Ladder structure clatter with fear of height, down height.
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
in a government for hire and a combat site.
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies breathing
down your neck.
Team by team, reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop.
Look at that low plane! Fine then.
Uh oh, overflow, population, common group, but it'll do.
Save yourself, serve yourself.
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed.
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right,
right.
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling
pretty psyched.
It's
the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
Six
o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign tower.
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.
Lock him in uniform and book burning, blood letting.
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a motive. Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crush.
Uh oh, this means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steer
clear!
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies.
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.
It's
the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had
some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had
some time alone)
and I feel fine (I feel fine)
It's
the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some
time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had
some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had
some time alone)
and I feel fine
The
other night I tripped a nice continental drift divide.
Mount Saint Edelite, Leonard Bernstein.
Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom!
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, right? Right.
It's
the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some
time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had
some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had
some time alone)
and I feel fine
It's
the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had
some time alone)

It's
