Return To Katy

In the bright sun, there's a dark spot
where the children of the moon sit & smoke pot
they don't have much, but they have dreams
repeat visions of the end in the smoke screen
In a few years
In a short time
We'll be new ghosts
of the old kind
So they watch you in a window
to the outside world where they don't go
they can sit there, hiding inside
'cause they know that to know is suicide
In a few years
In a short time
We'll be new ghosts
of the old kind

The beltway preacher's son
who's gotta hide to have his fun
who's whole life's a hit-and-run
reactive moment
He's a one-way element
ordained toward benefit
and spread around like forest fire
we caught on video
Who is, who is what?
Who is, who is what?
Out of the dark shadows of light
Into the next world, far from sight
It's time to say bye-bye
to the old ideas
After again, but never before
Someone will let you open the door
Could you ask them if they know
who is what?
Far from the broken fence
you might smell the secret scent
when cartoons make perfect sense
you know it's serious
Repudiated policies
are must haves for you & me
thank god we've got the foresight now
to not do anything
Who is, who is what?
Who is, who is what?

Traditions
01:33
|

Waiting for sunlight
on underground trains
Waiting for feelings
to come when it rains
Children will play along
with stupid games
just water & watch them
grow up to be sane

Can we try it?
Try it today?
Try to enter computer-generated worlds?
Because we happen to be ready.
Ready to use your V-R helmet.

Empty Spots
02:47
|
|||
|
We don't know what we're not so
we don't complain
Out in the parking lots, oh
watching the paint
Into the empty lots and
out of the grey
Tied in a hundred knots, oh
out of the way
I don't know who we've been
that we'd never want to be again
I don't know where we've gone
that ever made any sense
I don't know what I am

Intervention Net
01:39
|
|||
|
Radiation is my medicine
cell-phones are some disease
capture the constant script for
T.V. reality
Now the people know
there ain't much to show
so let's turn and go
pray to the god of iPod
Never thought that I'd find life
in plastic land...

Hurry, I'm Bleeding

|
Hurry, I'm bleeding
I'm outside your door
I've been here so long it feels like
I'm soaking through the floor
And I'm all out of reasons
I'm gonna go back home
Try to live until I die from
always movin' on...
Is it really a boring song?

Brown Bedroom Walls
01:49
|
|||
|
Watching as my bedroom walls turn brown
Waiting for my miracle that never hits the ground
Writing for my double-day arraign
Next to nothing, next to last,
it's always still the same

Many times a midnight meant
sitting on a broken fence
Stop and watch the world walk by
You know, I know we love entertainment
Hanging on a shoestring vine
and drinking my moonlight wine
We used to make the minutes shine
You know, I know we're just dreams apart
Miracle at Sunset Park
the magic happens of the dark
and you can just ask Brian Clark
He knows, we know we're just dreams apart
Remember when the human race
lit up like a shadow's face?
And almost burned my parents place...
I know, you know we love entertainment

The Rules
03:04

|
My friend Danny Max was adventurous in soul,
he couldn't wait before a rattle & roll
He slept on the rules
He slept on the rules
He slept on the rules
and fell into dreams
When Danny was on, what a ruckus he'd raise
He'd strike and he'd leave their heads spinnin' for days
He slipped on the rules
He slipped on the rules
He slipped on the rules
and fell into schemes
Well I hear that he's older & wiser these days
But I can't help just thinkin' he's slipping away
Don't slip on the rules
Don't slip on the rules
Don't listen to fools
they're entertainment
Come back wayward stranger
Ignore prescient danger
You might find what you're looking for
But don't slip on the rules
Don't slip on the rules
Don't listen to fools
And don't slip on the rules
Don't slip on the rules
they're entertainment
