(Come and see me at my job)
Give me a cold drink of water
I want to drink it till I drown
I get thirsty when I’m working
But when you come around
You can…
Come and see me
Come and see me
Come and see me at my job
We’re working till the workin’ is done
Come and see me
Come and see me
Come and see me at my job
We’re making biscuits and we’re buttering-
Oooo at my job!
At my job at my job
Being poor can be so lonely
And being rich seems like a gas
I’ve got skills, and I will use them
I’ve got skills, I hope they last, so when you
Come and see me
Come and see me
Come and see me at my job
We’re making biscuits and we’re buttering-
Oooo at my job!
At my job at my job

People they talk
When they talk they don’t move much
So I got a bus
And I called up a bunch of my friends
Nogoodniks, real bastards
So we started shooting
About this and that
And as a matter of fact
I think we were all pretty wasted
Except for the bus driver, he was straight
Now I forgot who said it
And maybe the Barons said it best
When they said -
They said… Ah shit I don’t remember
Just move they said!
Do the Frug
Do the Watusi
Do the shang-a-lang
Do the Watusi
Do the Double Decker Bus!
Do the Watusi
Yeah, do the Frug
Do the Watusi
Well people are people
That’s a matter of fact
But when people start moving
They start to become better people
That’s science,jack - real knowledge
Yeah people start moving
And then they start grooving
And sooner or later
We’re moving like sand in the ocean
Real groovin’
Well I forgot who said it
But maybe the Barons said it best
When they said
Oh shit I don’t remember
Oh yes I do
Just move they said
Do the Frug
Do the Watusi
Do the shang-a-lang
Do the Watusi
Do the Double Decker Bus!
Do the Watusi
Yeah, do the Frug
Do the Watusi

Flew out of the womb independent and free, but then I'm a Scorpio and that's how I meant to be grew up in Illinois, but I needed more moved to California where life wouldn't be a borg after thirty. Some years went further north Not Looking Back and Forth life and work need meaning or I get bored a rich and varied life is my reward. My career makes sense to me and that's all that matters. When I try to find work the algorithm shatter radio DJ professor bioethicist and none. My career trajectory has been unconventional but fun a loner type nature nurtures my being I'd rather be outside hiking biking camping and skiing still single right now, and that's okay with me, but I'm getting older and finally ready for matrimony. We'll see.

I'm working on my nerves
Trying to find the courage and trying to speak up
I'm working on the words
To say just what exactly I've been thinking for months
And I know it won't be simple or
make a whole lot of sense
But I've come to this conclusion and am asking for support
They say it's all a lie and we're waiting to be
Guided by the light and inevitably
Plucked up from the Earth into a higher plane
I know I know it sounds insane
Late one evening on a trip to Tallahassee
It was for work and I was bored out of my mind
I saw a flyer filled with colors on a lamp post
Advertising smooth jazz music and free wine
Captivated I walked over and put my name down
Listened to some tunes and made some friends
And at the end out walked a man in mismatched sandals
The finest thing I'd ever seen on two legs
He took my hand and he stared into
My eyes so longingly
He told me I could be one of the saviors of humanity
I tell you it's a lie and we're waiting to be
Guided by the light and inevitably
Plucked up from the earth into a higher plane
Can you really be sure we're all insane?
Please don't call it a cult
Please don't insult
My intelligence
I'm still the same
Person you knew before
Please don't try to dissuade me
I'm telling you my mind's made
I've already donated large sums of money to this cause.

Woah
(Put em in the water now)
Woah Max and Tina
(Woah)
(Scrub it! Scrub it!)
Woah Max and Tina
I was standing in the place
And you were next to me
Scrubbing in the bath -oh!
With my brand new family
It’s such a special place
And you can bring a friend
Where breakfast never stops
And dinner never ends
Woah
(Put em in the water now)
Woah Max and Tina
(Woah)
(Scrub it! Scrub it!)
Woah Max and Tina
Woah! It’s a little hot in here
Just dip your pinky toe (No, I don’t think so!)
A little to the left (It’s warmer over here!)
A little to the right (It’s colder over there!)

Hunger for Gold

I hunger for gold
Pearls and diamonds
Gold
We can be like movie stars
With the wealth of the pharaohs
Fancy dinners, enormous cars
Worth their own weight in gold
How’s it going, I’ll say coy
As if life weren’t a baccanalle
As if life weren’t perfect joy
As if life weren’t gold
I hunger for gold
Pearls and diamonds
Gold
Every day is a holy-day
Every night, a holy night
As they’re naming the stars in the sky
(Worth their own weight in gold)
And out on the stormiest sea
A voice it is calling to me
Mine deeper, dig deep
Ooh - la la
Ah - la la
Oooo

Little World

Outside my window
(the people move by)
With dreams of tomorrow
(that wither and die)
On the vine
And I’m wasting time
Knee deep in everything
That fits in my mind
Till the monsters inside ooo
Scoop out my eyes
(So nice)
And I’m pleasantly blind
And I’m perfectly fine
With the world that’s outside
Oooo
Little world
Meanwhile in Phoenix
(The city of light)
Ten million people
(Prepare for the night)
What night
Their dreams taking flight
Tomorrow could bring anything
With Blistering light
Oooo
Little world
Oooo
Little world
My mind
Goes doo - doo - doo
While the world gets ripped in to
Pieces in front of you --- ahhh!
Oooo
Little world

Whiskerton
City by the sea
When I was cold, you let me be
Now I’m afraid
That you were just like me
Let it out, don’t let it be
We can’t all just be afraid
The city waits, the city saves
All are welcome in the grace of the city
And it’s a pity
We didn’t find you sooner
Whiskerton up on the hill
I’m breathing lightly
Holding still
In your arms, I see the light
And in your light, I feel the night
Whiskerton my saving grace
A lovely, empty, hopeless waste of life
To never see
Your restless skies
Your raging sea
Ooo in the municipal precinct parks department
Chester lines up paperwork
And the I’s and T’s line and cross so effortlessly
It’s just a job, an he’s the clerk
The sun it rises where you want it
And the streets are paved with hope
No one dies, no one wants to - no one lies
Doesn’t that sound dope?
Outro:
Pretty people are living in Whiskerton
