Tanqueray (Somebody Save Me) Somebody save me Somebody save me from myself--and no one else Somebody sing it Somebody sing your own damn song--I can't go on Everything is halfway done There's a cloud across the sun if you look you can see yesterday is gone away Speak your dreams into the air the streets are quiet, no one's there and most of all, you aren't here, just this lime and Tanqueray Somebody save me Somebody save me from myself--and no one else Somebody sing it Somebody sing your own damn song--I can't go on Open a window Open a window in a wall, in nothing at all Make your own movie Make your movie of your life--and watch it all Satisfy your lonesome heart you'll never finish once you start Keep your fires burning, keep your knives sharp and true Set your heart to Mountain Time look for words that break the rhyme write it down if it says something true--like love is blue Somebody save me Somebody save me from myself--and no one else Somebody sing it Somebody sing your own damn song--I can't go on My friend, remember Remember what you hope to say--before you go away I saved your photo I saved your photo in my phone--so I don't feel alone Everything is halfway done There's a cloud across the sun if you look you can see yesterday is gone away Speak your dreams into the air the streets are quiet, no one's there and most of all, you aren't here, just this lime and Tanqueray Somebody save me Somebody save me from myself--and no one else Somebody sing it Somebody sing your own damn song--I can't go on

You're Not Alone This is the place This is the place where everything happens My secret window peeks out at you in your little room You left your scarves and your shoes your silky things that all remind me of you The day is done, the sun goes down They're howling all over this town We all wanna say...here I am, here I am, HERE I AM You're not alone! in the springtime You're not alone on the inside You're not alone! can you feel it? You're not alone I have a request it's really more of a demand for profound stimulation but I'm a reasonable guy 'cause that's exactly what I promise to you Your magic potions and your spells you have enchanted me so well for so many years now The sun comes up, the world turns 'round I'll see you when this all dies down and we'll howl together...here I am, here I am, HERE I AM You're not alone! in the springtime You're not alone we're all on the inside You're not alone! can you feel it? You're not alone baby I mean it Read your books and take your baths dream sweet dreams and text me back with emojis Hope to see you in September just remember You're not alone! You're not alone You're not alone! You're not alone

ONE GOOD IDEA Everyone's life is a goddamn novel even if you've never been anywhere Even if you spend your whole life running you turn around and find yourself standing right there You gotta find the time--tequila and lime you gotta make a plan--even castles in the sand need a good idea just one good idea You gotta shut the door and turn off the lights you're going to have to stay up and investigate the night to watch the darkness come and then the darkness fade away and it's another day My love, are you with me somewhere in this empty room? Are you hiding in the shadows between the notes of every tune? Are you a sad song? Are you an angry one? Are we Roxy Music? Or Beastie Boys? I think you're everything you're all the notes between we make the melody, then we make the noise Sometimes I hide fire in my mind One Good Idea is a machine running all the time My love, are you with me somewhere in this empty room? Are you hiding in the shadows between the notes of every tune? Are you Fugazi? Or Public Enemy? Or Fleetwood Mac? Or freaking Concrete Blonde? I think you're everything you're all the notes between we make the harmony, and that makes the song

The fascist pigs have come to town they've come to burn our city down but we fight the dirty bastards yes we fight the dirty bastards The undercover cops arrive with their baseball caps and shifty eyes but we fight the dirty bastards yes we fight the dirty bastards In the land of the free I stand for you and you stand for me but the cowards and the bigots in the GOP they stand for billionaires and white supremacy punch 'em in the face and chop 'em off at the knees The helicopters circle 'round as the angry masses march downtown and we fight the dirty bastards yes we fight the dirty bastards I'm not saying we should kill police but I don't give a damn if they can breathe so we fight the dirty bastards yes we fight the dirty bastards In the land of the free I stand for you and you stand for me but the cowards and the bigots in the GOP they stand for billionaires and white supremacy punch 'em in the face and chop 'em off at the knees

Visionaries 02:52
Have you ever wondered, baby, if i feel the same? i think while we were sleeping everything got rearranged First it's ancient curses, then you're on the wrong damn train getting lost within the pages of Love & Death Under the Rain Whatever you want whatever you need we can be Visionairies of make-believe Nights I lie awake and listen to the falling rain and I work on fitting pieces of the puzzles inside your name Whatever you want whatever you need we can be Visionairies of make-believe Whatever you want whatever you need we can be Visionairies you maybe more than me Whatever you want whatever you need we can be Visionairies if incompletely of make-believe

Maybe I'm tired of all the visionaries who got everything wrong I will not forgive and my memory is long Maybe you think you're free to turn away and play another song But I will not forgive and I won't forget how you were so damn wrong Life is a fistful of stones and we're all alone (you got me, you got me) but love is your plan to open your hand Chapter Two--I never knew you could love me the way you do and maybe I'm amazed that I feel the same way too Take me out to see the stars on a Naked Mountain night and I will not forget how I lost my mind and how you held me tight Life is a fistful of stones that you can throw (don't do it, don't do it) but love is a plan to open your hand, baby you know you know I see you, and you see me too and nothing is better than being with you Life is a fistful of stones Maybe this world is tired of all the shit we put her through but I will not forget there was beauty and there was truth And one fine day we'll leave this place like the fading of a dream but I will not forget all the beauty and love I've seen Life is a fistful of stones but you're not alone (come lie down beside me) and love is the plan to open your hand
