You don't have to keep it clean
But you gotta sweat it out
West is left and east is right
When you're traveling north from south
You didn't have to be here all week
But you'll be glad you came
You'll find a host of hospitality
And the waves are more or less the same
Star light
Star bright
Second star I see tonight
Make my first wish come true/Looks like we're counting on you
They say our highways are the same
But you're sleeping at the wheel
Some foreign chords on my best guitar
Midnight beach is so surreal
Melted ice in your tumbler tells
She does not reciprocate
Star light
Star bright
Second star I see tonight
Make my first wish come true/Looks like we're counting on
You
Are always welcome back just make it
Through
Whatever makes you take it apart
You
Cartoon angel on your shoulder if it
Flew
The rest is up to you

We were out late
On a Thursday
Under manmade stars
A waif walks out on stage
Killer cool not a shrinking violet
He yells "feel the love"
as the room falls silent
To minimize her power
I'm left to say
Feel the hate
Heal the fate
A virago go go gone
Fete-au-fete
Siren song
Don't discriminate
Once upon a time
In the mirror of my mind
A place for everything
And everything had a place
Killed out cold
and stunned in silence
He yelled "feel the love"
In pale contrivance
Every day has a dog
and every dog its day
Feel the hate
Heal the fate
A virago go go gone
Fete-au-fete
Siren song
Don't discriminate
Hunger, thirst,
delirium
Silent dead voices
The nearer you to them
The face that launched a thousand ships
Stumbled upon the rocks and flipped
and suffered
So she could sing you this...
Feel the hate
Heal the fate
A virago go go gone
Fete-au-fete
Siren song
Don't discriminate

Tell You About Yourself

Tell you about yourself
You're the brightest hue of color
But you look really good in black
You're dazzling enough to bring sensation
To an amnesiac
Tell you about yourself
You look real fine in blue jeans
And I love to watch you walk away
I can't tell if you're angry
(that sounds like something I might say)
You could wear ten shades of lipstick
And I'm glossing over the fact
That though I love to watch you walk away
I much prefer it when you're walking back
Tell you about yourself

Just Don't Stop
02:57

There are times that I think that I've lost it
There are times I know it's already lost
There are times I find myself spending
And pretending I know the cost
It doesn't matter how far you travel
It doesn't matter where you've been
The tortoise and hare
Between here and there
Know that giving up would be a sin
Just don't stop, just don't stop
Every mountain is a molehill when you get to the top
You can rest, just don't stop
There are mountains I climb up backward
With puddles where I always drown
There are time I find myself talking
And there ain't nobody else around
It doesn't matter how far you travel
It doesn't matter where you've been
The compass rose
Bows to those who know
Giving up would be a sin
Just don't stop, just don't stop
Every mountain is a molehill when you get to the top
Just don't stop, just don't stop
Every mountain is a molehill when you get to the top
You can rest, just don't...
