Moving To Mars
02:35

|
In T-minus 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
If the weather was right
And the orbits just aligned
Beyond earth's atmosphere
I'd be waving my goodbyes
I've set course and trajectories
Double checked my amenities
'Cause where I'm going is kind of far
ETA six months til Mars
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
Send earth my best regards!
Packed my SPF 75
'Cause I'll be bathing under rusty, red skies
My cats are wearing their new space suits
Bracing for lots of Co2
Wanna come but don't have a spacecraft?
Hop in mine just chip in for gas
I met some Martian friends online
They're counting down the days til we arrive!
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
Send earth my best regards!
Mars may be the God of War
But that's not what the planet stands for
No borders or boundaries
No proclaimed identities
Intergalactic immigration
Diverse but united nation
Universal equality
We come in peace!
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
Send earth my best regards!
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
I'm moving to Mars
Send earth my best regards!

Stage lights
Light up your night
Day dreams
Coming alive
Blank screens
Ready to shine
It's your time
Going 48 down Highway 84
Buttoned up from 9 to 5
She's heading for the door
The disco ball casts a starry sky
Her insecurity left behind
She writes her name upon a slip
KJ says "you're in the mix"
Finds a seat among the crowd
'Til KJ says "your turn now"
They call her name
She takes the mic
She's been waiting the whole night
She's a Karaoke Star
She's a Karaoke Star
No one could predict
Just what would come up next
A plain Jane on the main stage
Like nothing you'd expect
Pipes like an organ
Filling the room
Charm like a spell
Cast by her tune
She puts the mic back on the stand
KJ says "give her a hand"
The audience jaws to the floor
Rise to their feet
Screaming for more
They chant her name
She takes a bow
She's a karaoke star now
She's a Karaoke Star
She's a Karaoke Star

The last day I saw you
Was the day you ran away
Our goodbyes were never said
Couldn't beg you to stay
And now I'm
Missing you
Runaway Sadie
Runaway Sadie
Runaway Sadie
I'm missing you
Its been some weeks since I saw you
Wondering where ya been
Every time the telephone rings
I hope that you'll be answering
Cause I'm
Missing you
Runaway Sadie
Runaway Sadie
Runaway Sadie
I'm missing you
I hope you're happy
And someone's taking care of you
But I'm still wishing
That you'd come back some day soon
Cause I'm
Missing you
Runaway Sadie
Runaway Sadie
Runaway Sadie
I'm missing you

Shit-Colored Glasses

You polished your lenses
Ready to meet the sun
But the sun is just to bright
Next thing you know
A tree gives you some shade
But now you can't see the light
Your mind's like a septic tank
A pile of complaints
Bad things come in threes
But for you they come on constantly
You see the world through shit-colored glasses
Everything sucks and nothing is fine
You see the world through shit-colored glasses
I've got a different shade, wanna borrow mine?
You're taking a trip
(Where?)
To the optometrist
Cause your prescription just ain't right
He's checked your vision
Done some tests
Projected the writing on the wall
But he can't fix your state of mind
Your mind's like a septic tank
A pile of complaints
Bad things come in threes
But for you they come on constantly
You see the world through shit-colored glasses
Everything sucks and nothing is fine
You see the world through shit-colored glasses
I've got a different shade, wanna borrow mine?
A regular Negative Nancy
A double Debbie Down
A pessimistic party pooper
Who always wears a frown
You see the world through shit-colored glasses
Everything sucks and nothing is fine
You see the world through shit-colored glasses
I've got a different shade, wanna borrow mine?

All Work No Pay
03:02

Put my paycheck in the shredder
'Cause that's how much I made
I'm overworked, and I'm tired
Put my money towards a grave
At odds with breaking even
'Cause it's all work no pay
Trying to get across town on time
But getting stopped at all the red lights
Hoping one will change for me
But I spent all my luck on self-esteem
Pushing paper
But not pulling any back
I must be living in a pile of ash
'Cause I'm burning through
All my cash
Cross my fingers for a break
Hope the vending machine won't eat my change
Turn my pockets out out out
Pick myself back off the ground
At odds with breaking even
Cause it's all work no pay
Hard to turn a frown upside down
When you're feeling inside out
Say you're enjoying something sweet
But you're wondering when the taste turns sour
Work to live on the edge
Life in a hole is a privilege
This ain't the golden age
'Cause I'm living on minimum wage
Cross my fingers for a break
Hope the vending machine won't eat my change
Turn my pockets out out out
Pick myself back off the ground
At odds with breaking even
'Cause it's all work no pay
At odds with breaking even
'Cause it's all work no pay
At odds with breaking even
Cause it's all work no pay
No Pay

Act like you're on a higher plain
Better than everyone
But all you do is complain
Better not have fun
Pollute the air with your bad mood
Never change your attitude
Expect others to treat you nice
But return the favor at a price
Drama Queen
Drama Queen
They're all just subjects in your queendom
At your service
They all follow where you lead 'em
You're no highness
Make 'em think you're royalty
But where lies your loyalty?
Ask the mirror on the wall
In your mind your above them all
Drama queen
Drama queen
Entrance victims with charming fruit
From trees rotten at the root
It must be an honor
It must be a privilege
To be in the presence of so much greatness
So much greatness
So much greatness
Drama queen
Drama queen
Drama queen
Drama queen

Shadow Girl

I'm on a hunt
Yea I'm on a mission
I've got a hunch
A sneaking suspicion
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna find you
That creeping feeling that you feel is me behind you
I spotted you on my radar
Been tracking you ever since
I'm hiding in plain sight
I'm in your mirror's reflection
Going undetected
I'm hot on your trail
I'm coming for you
Shadow girl
Seeing through your eyes
Walking in your shoes
Under a microscope, I can spot your next move
I'm reading your mind
I've got you right where I want you
And now there's nowhere to run to
I'm hot on your trail
I'm coming for you
And now the trail has gone cold
It seems like you have disappeared
One second you're there
The next you're not
Can't find you anywhere
Like you were never here at all
Like you were never here at all
Like you were never here at all
I'll be your shadow
You I will follow
I'll be your shadow
You I will follow
I'll be your shadow
You I will follow
I'll be your shadow
You I will follow
I'm hot on your trail
I'm coming for you
Shadow

Tiny Lives

Birds whistling melodies
High up in the trees
You and me underneath
Feeling warm and cozy
Parked in our house
It's on wheels
Towed by our automobile
State by state
You and me, driving cross country
From mountains to plains
Through sunshine and rain
You by my side
Live our tiny lives
Miles on the road
And still many to go
Venturing through the great unknown
Small as we are
Beneath millions of stars
In our home, in our world, in our universe
From mountains to plains
Through sunshine and rain
You by my side
Live our tiny lives
But the road that we took
Almost got us stuck
The gray clouds followed us here
and the rain started falling
The birds stopped their calling
The hail and thunder struck fear
So we huddled inside
Mother nature cried
All through the night
From mountains to plains
Through sunshine and rain
You by my side
Live our tiny lives
