You know him
He can't stand women
But his friends were always jealous
'cause he seemed to have a ton of them
You know him
Like 007 in his prime
He could pick 'em up and spit 'em out and start again
Now he's lonely as anything
With his list of 210
You knew him
When the lad about town shirt fit him
And he didn't see it leading to a bitter end
You knew him
When a little Dutch courage
Seemed to do it, going thought it didn't hit him as belittling
Now he's lonely as anything
With his list of 210
Take a good look
Sad isn't it
You know the end
You can laugh at the irony
His belly's getting chubby while his hair seems to be wearing thin
You know the end
And it doesn't look pretty
So I'll show you the beginning, where it went and how he got to when
He's lonely as anything
With his list of 210
Take a good look
Sad isn't it
Take a good look
It seemed so easy but it passed him by
And easy left him in the blink of an eye
It seem to leave him with a hole in his life
The more he got, the less it satisfied
It sunk in
When his first year lover
Taught him do it unto others well before the others do you in
It sunk in
And he never quite recovered
Like a poor little lamb, but that shit is so American
Take a good look
Sad isn't it

A little more time
Text und Musik: Joe Carnwath
Album: Everything is happening, 2006
Once again, we're talking in circles
I go 'round the bend while you look for the loopholes
I love you though, you make me feel stupid
Played for a fool by the frequency you've said
A little more time
A little more patience
A little more time
A little consideration
A little more time is all you need
Alright, enough already!
Here we are, stuck in the doldrums
It shouldn't be hard, committing to someone
Kept in check, I'm out of ideas
I'm kissing your neck while you whisper in my ear
A little more time
A little more patience
A little more time
A little consideration
A little more time is all you need
Alright, enough already!
Don't make me put my foot down once again
My pussyfooting days are at an end
And I intend to give you one last ultimatum
That's what I say when I make them
Here's what you say when you break them:
A little more time
A little more patience
A little more time
A little consideration
A little more time is all you need
Alright, enough already!
Beautiful Babies

She can turn out the light
And not lay awake at night
Then she can draw back the blinds
And let in sunshine
I can`t complain or compete
When all I've made turn absolete
She can turn out the light
She's
got beautiful babies
To light up her life, to light up her life
She's got beautiful babies and I
I'm looking pitiful, right?
She was told in the crush
She won't amount to much
I enrolled and started to read
While she underarchieved
But there's a smile on her face
And I can't knock the life she's made
Look who's cold in the crush
She's got beautiful babies
To light up her life, to light up her life
She's got beautiful babies
and I...
I'm looking pitiful, right?
Beautiful babies
To light up her life, to light up her life
She's got beautiful babies and I
worked my fingers to the bone
While she just sat around at home
And look how far that's gotten me
Beautiful babies
To light up her life, to light up her life
She's got beautiful babies and I
I'm looking pitiful, right?
Beautiful babies
To light up her life, to light up her life
She's got beautiful babies and I
I'm looking pitiful, right?

'Cause
all that we need is the air that we breath
Some radio waves showing cable TV
We'll leave behind our time on the outside
And let our love thrive, our love thrive
Take my hand and step inside
Picture
just me and you
Just me and you
Just me and you
Inside of biosphere 2
We
won't have to leave
And I'll fix the weather
Like Adam and Eve
Oh, it could be heaven
We`ll leave behind our time on the outside
And let our love thrive, our love thrive
Take my hand and step inside
Picture
just me and you
Just me and you
Just me and you
Inside of biosphere 2
And we'll
survive given space and time
High as the sky
And the bottom line's
God knows we're choking here
In here this atmosphere...
It's just me and you
Just me and you
It's just me and you
Inside of biosphere 2
Just me and you

Even
if I want to
There's not a lot I can do
It stands to reason
I haven't got a halo
hate to turn away though
I'm only human
Count
how much good men
give to keep in line if
That's the going rate for heaven
But even if I try
I couldn't make it right
You see my hands are tied
And you caught me on a bad day
Even if I'd like
to put the world to rights
To be the better kind
Well you caught me on a bad day
you caught me on a bad day
I
keep what I've been given
A standard way of living
It's justified
'Cause even saints are known to
Sneak in the odd sin or two
on the side
Count
how much good men
give to keep in line if
That's the going rate for heaven
But even if I try
I couldn't make it right
You see my hands are tied
And you caught me on a bad day
Even if I'd like
to put the world to rights
To be the better kind
you caught me on a bad day

Count

That's the going rate for heaven
But even if I try
I couldn't make it right

Collateral Damage
Text und Musik: Joe Carnwath
unreleased
Flashes explode on my flat TV screen
Two commentators explain what they mean
A man with a clip mic, a tie and a hair piece
A girl with an inch of foundation and straight teeth
Are giving it straight to my side of the world
I turn up the volume and watch it unfurl
Fireballs flair in the dead of the night
Surround speakers thunder, then suddenly quiet
Satellites bringing it live to my room
Break for commercials and then it resumes
When the girl does her best to explain our position
I struggle in need of revised definitions
She says that the flames raining down from the sky
that I'd taken for bombs are just ordinance right?
My dictionary is not aiding me
Enemy combatant's not under E
From what I can make out nobody's been hurt
It's just buildings and statues were leveled to dirt
The girl shakes her hair, the man straightens his tie
Erroneous facts aren't the same as a lie
According to them and the latest reports
This is not really war, just a conflict of sorts
Thank God thank God nobody was hurt
And technology saved any blood getting spilled
Thank God thank God I believe what they say
And that under those flashes no families lay
Sleeping, then screaming in terror and pain
No sister was blinded, no rooms wrapped in flames
No mothers legs were blown from their sockets
while nobodies baby was choking on vomit
No one was hurt, there's no need to panic
No one was killed, just collateral damage

Days
are oceans

Album: Everything is happening, 2006
All
but drained of motivation
Scarlet stains on just washed hands
What remains are best intentions
(Like) steady rains from a clear blue sky
Rockabye oh, sweet sensation
Any lie can be justified
In a mind that can't stand facing
Being tied to what it's left behind
Some
days are oceans
Some days
And
a soul that's soothed by motion
Looses hold and drifts astray
For to roam in constant search of
A place called home
Where it could never stay
Some
days are oceans
Some days are a man at sea
Some days are oceans
Some days

Emma
and Julian
Text
und Musik: Joe Carnwath
Album: Everything is happening, 2006
Bet
every school and every generation picture the scene
So the names have changed, but the situation still has a ring
They fell in love back when love was nothing complicated
And skipped the part where you got so jaded
They got it right from the start
And
through the years, before your eyes they go on on and on
Not out of some kind of insecurity, because they belong
They were children winning at an adult game
And now they're older but that spirit remains
They got it right from the start
It's
an Emma and Julian thing
An Emma and Julian thing
An Emma and Julian thing they've got going
They
never argue, complain or seem in distress
And of course they're beautiful, could they be any less?
They made a home that was safe as houses
While you tried on lovers like trying on trousers
They got it right from the start
It's
an Emma and Julian thing
An Emma and Julian thing
An Emma and Julian thing they've got going
If
you take the best thing that you have
Hold it beside them and
You'll find you may have a good thing
But that counts for nothing 'cause you'll never have what they have
It's
an Emma and Julian thing
An Emma and Julian thing (7x)
An
Emma and Julian thing they've got going

Jonathan,
devoid of self confidence
Isolated and drifting away
Seventeen, ugly and panicking
Try to explain
It makes no sense
When you need me
Won't you call me
When you feel
(Everything is happening)
Everything is happening somewhere
Everything is happening somewhere
Without you
Jonathan, cling on to your little world
Even when the sky's crashing down
Our mother and I
Love you like anything
I'd do anything at all
To keep you here
When you need me
Won't you call me
When you feel
(Everything is happening)
Everything is happening somewhere
Everything is happening somewhere
But your spirit is shackled
To a chemical cause
And I fear that the fact is
I can't help at all
(Everything is happening)
Everything is happening somewhere
Everything is happening somewhere
Everything is happening somewhere
Without you
Without you
I can't picture my life without you
Without you
Without you
I can't picture my life without you

Stupid

This
can't be held back anymore
I let it out, blood pressure soars
But summarizing up to here:
Across the counter she
Said: "Well what'll it be?"
I said: "Gee, it's nice to see you, I'll take a beer"
By
the way she looked at me
And by the looks that she received
Our evening's plans were clear to see
She didn't agree
Oh,
there I stood
Oh, feeling stupid
Oh, of course I could
Know not to be stupid
Another
time another place
I tried to undo my disgrace
I guess it came out kind of weird
She
said: "My friends can hear you now ..."
They laughed, I blushed and she rushed out
Well, there`s another fine mess you
got us in to
Oh,
there I stood
Oh, feeling stupid
Oh, of course I could
Know
Some
things are left best forgotton
Oh, but how when you`ve got them
tied up in reoccurring dreams
tied up in reoccurring dreams
Oh,
there I stood
Oh, feeling stupid
Oh, of course I could
Know not to be stupid

Happy
Days

Album: Everything is happening, 2006
Well,
did
I ever tell you about the time
It must have been around the neighbourhood of '99
When an Amtrak ticket and a magazines impression took me west
until the end of the line
I got my headshot and a job stacking shelves
I got an agent just like everyone else
And if I left someone behind, well it must have slipped my mind
while I was busy looking out for myself
The saddest part of all of this is
That when I'm looking back on it
Those were the happiest days of my life
The happiest days of my life
The happiest days of my life
And if that sounds shallow, hell I'd rather just be shallow again
And if I stumbled going over my lines
The director that I met didn't mind
He let me read for the lead in a soda pop commercial
Screw the acting, boy those pecs are divine
The saddest part of all of this is
that when I'm looking back on it
Those were the happiest days of my life
The happiest days of my life
The happiest days of my life
And if that sounds shallow, hell I'd rather just be shallow
'cause I met a model on the set
She let me get my fingers wet
I felt I was a king upon
amphetamine and silicon
With summer coming to an end
I new my days were numbered when
She said she'd tired of acting dumb
And asked what I was running from
Oh yeah
I met a model on the set
She let me get my fingers wet
I felt I was a king upon
amphetamine and silicon
With summer coming to an end
I new my days were numbered when
She said she'd tired of acting dumb
And asked what I was running from
Oh yeah
Those were the happiest days of my life
The happiest days of my life
The happiest days of my life
And if that sounds shallow, hell I'd rather just be shallow
'cause there's something 'bout reality I find hard to swallow
And
what kind of bastard leaves his three-year-old daughter in New England?

Have
you seen this man?
Text

Album: Spicy No. 11, 2003
Applauded
by sycophants, ill with the sound
Cause they talk like the clappers when the money rains down
They said even his shit came up smelling like roses
A lily-white lie, but then no one supposed that
The air of success that just seemed to surround him
Would somehow go sour devour and drowned him
Have
you seen this man?
Have
you seen this man?
Have
you seen this man?
Catch him if you can
Catch him if you can
A
simple mistake, it was easily made
He knew which side his bread was buttered on when they let him eat cake
Well, it slipped from his mind, to keep using his brain
Hedonism and happiness aren't quite the same
When his promising single was left on the shelf
His generous percentage divided up nil.
Have
you seen this man?
Have
you seen this man?
Have
you seen this man?
Should
we let him off the hook
Well no one knows
He said: "Look, the hook line goes
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do.... la la la la....."
He
was judged to be gifted, quick and disarming
Dangerously handsome and frighteningly charming
But the jury came back to appeal their decision
They found he was wanting they wanted good riddance
Though shrouded by failure and cut down to size
He shoudn`t be that hard to recognise
Have
you seen this man?
Have
you seen this man?
Have
you seen this man?
Catch him if you can
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do.... la la la la.....

How to make it all right

It leaves me in this daze
Of recreational truth
Oh

Can I give up yet?
It hurts so much

Unpack

The simple fact's better start to act my age
I can see what I ought to do
When I'm struck by déjà vu
And then oh no
Hold on here we go
Back to being so naive
Accelerate to take off speed
Surprise surprise, the wheels don't leave the ground
Another lesson left unlearned
Another flight that crashed and burned
What was it that I said last time around
I see the wool before my eyes
It took a while, but I finally realise
If I aim to be content
I'd better learn to take my medicine
But then, oh no
Hold on here we go
Back to being so naive
Accelerate to take off speed
Surprise surprise, the wheels don't leave the ground
Another lesson left unlearned
Another flight that crashed and burned
What was it that I said last time
Said last time
Never again I swore
But you've heard that before
Well maybe just one last time
Back to being so naive
Accelerate to take off speed
Surprise surprise, the wheels don't leave the ground
Another lesson left unlearned
Another flight that crashed and burned
What was it that I said last time

Holiday

You
pierced your belly button
But lamb you'll turn to mutton all the same
You're eating with your fingers
But etiquette still lingers on your brain
Now
your place is a state and your car's corroded
But your teeth are all straight and your folks are loaded
Over in Asia did you contemplate
Why your hair's a mess but it still smells great
Over
in Asia with your eyes dilated
Did you find you found yourself
On holiday
You're
working in sky scrapers
But only pushing papers. Use your brain
You're getting backstage passes
But no one kissing asses knows your name
Now
your bed's unmade and your head's undone
You speak of escapades but you fake when you come
Over in Asia did you contemplate
Why your hair's a mess but it still smells great
Over
in Asia with your eyes dilated
Did you find you found yourself
On holiday
A holiday sounds good to me
But you won't hear me you're too deep
And they say
I'm an uptight east coast boy anyway
Well I'll stand my ground 'till you take me away
Over in Asia we could contemplate
Why my hair's a mess but it still smells great
Over
in Asia with your eyes dilated
Did you find you found yourself
Did you find you found yourself
Did you find you found yourself

She said "I love you
But you're boring"
She said "You're handsom
But you're dull
And in a crowd I'm content ignoring
But when I get you alone"
"You give me nada
to complain of
Except to leave me uninspired
And when you show me what you're made of
It's like watching paint dry
He's got the killer in his eyes
and a violent smile
Thundercloud skies
to your sweetness and light
and I'm aware that he's the kind that can only hurt me so help me
I can't get him out of my mind"
She said "I love you
But you're boring
Still in my head you are the one
Between my ears you do the scoring
Between my legs he's got it going on

Get up and leave your life led
You've got to get it got together, God knows
These days leave with no crescendos
I
don't think I'll be trying to work I said
I might just live right off the trees instead
But had I wept or crept or bled yet?
No, as you may have suspected!
I called that free
I called that free
I called that free and it's all for me
Now I see, yeah, now I see
Hihi...
To
live or die for
to laugh or cry or
any reason not to go get wasted
They said I had tasted grace
for free

When

Is the fear of waking up in the morning to find nothing changed
And me, I can't say I do to much better
It's
hard to complain
When now and again
I really love her
and again I really love her
and again I really love her
But
when I'm going under
She is there to cling to
I can't hold on any longer
But somehow she seems to
Find a reason to continue
There're a thousand not to
I can't find in me to begin again
If
she gets work related I look the other way
She smiles 'cause denial keeps the bad at bay
And me, I can't say I do too much better
It's
hard to complain
When now and again
I really love her
and again I really love her

But

She is there to cling to
I can't hold on any longer

If
God un-dams this stream of consciousness
The devil knows - what it might let out
A simple tonic with a bitter twist
I'll take mine watered down
I'll take mine watered down
But
you take everything and spit it out
Into the space between us
Now that everything is out there
Drifting
came without a fight to me
Easy-chair - spun around
When you hit me with your gravity
I tried to keep it down
I tried to keep it down
But
you took everything and spat it out
Into the space between us
Now that everything is out there
You had to take it off your chest
Now everything is out there
Say
man don't you be a child
But babe I was cradled and safe in denial
I know confession is good for the soul
But I'm a long way from church and I already sold mine
Well what you want me say
I was happier yesterday
You took everything and spat it out
Into the space between us
Now that everything is out there
You had to take it off your chest
Now that everything is out there
I'm struggling to catch my breath
Took everything and spat it out
Took everything and spat it out

The man I can make of me and
I got to learn to let love in again
I got a history
Of shying from intimacy
We've got to fight to make amends
Now the chips are down
and I'm coming around
Ooh,
I
can't hide the shape I'm in
When I'm walking over water
with the ice getting thin
Ooh, I
I'm out on borrowed time
I could choose to make a noose or
A safety line
And she's thrown me a line
this time
I
got to want to see
Where fantasy blinded me and
She's got to take what I can give of me
She made it clear to me
I'm sick of my own company
We've got to fight to make amends
Now the chips are down

I could swallow my pride, walk away from my losing streak
She could succeed and we could be fine
But like I was born to compete
I got caught in the tide and it carried me out to the deep
She could take me on board and could unwind
Ooh,

Ooh, I

And she's thrown me a line

In a house of glass alone
I'm just toying with this stone
Wont you come on come on home
Anyone can make mistakes
Take an apple from a snake
But I love you all the same
No, screw that
I never want you back
And given half a chance I'd wring your bloody neck
And smile
Disregard
what I just said
I've got thicker skin than that
Like a puppy on its back
It's forgotten anyway
It was really no big thing
And I love you all the same
No,
screw that
I never want you back
And given half a chance I'd wring your bloody neck
And smile
No,
screw that
I never want you back
And given half a chance I'd wring your bloody neck
And smile
I
love you
I hate you
I need to forget you
I've been used
And lied to
I'm see through
With out you
It's no use
I need you
I need you
I need you
Screw that
I never want you back
And
given half a chance I'd wring your bloody neck
And smile
No,
screw that
I never want you back
And given half a chance I'd wring your bloody neck
And smile
And smile

I
thought of you last night
As I do every night
Shining in a window in my mind
Break the glass and burn the blinds
Sha
la la I'm flying
Sha la la I think I'm flying
Sha la la if I'm falling
I don't mind
'Cos I know what I'll find
When
it rains it pours on me
So I wrap in plastic, dry and clean
You strip me down where no one's been
And shine on in
Sha
la la I'm flying
Sha la la I think I'm flying
Sha la la if I'm falling
I won't scream
'Cos I know you'll catch me
Oh yes I know
You'll catch me
Oh yes I know
You'll catch me

As
pretty as your picture
As clever as your prose
As rich as your life style
As good as your cause
You're
up on my altar
Instead of to pray
It's my fate to falter
So try as I may
I
wanna see you cry
I wanna see you fall
I wanna see you writhe
'Cause baby it hurts sometimes
I know you know
As
quick as your humour
As soave as your friends
As lush as your lips are
As young as I was
I
wanna see you cry
I wanna see you fall
I wanna see you writhe
'Cause baby it hurts sometimes
When
I'm lost in the real
Yours is a world I can deal with alright
I can look to my heroes to bear my ordeals tonight
And say oh show me what it's like
And let me see you cry
Let me see you fall
Let me see you writhe
'Cause baby it hurts sometimes
Oh let me see you fall
I wanna see you cry
Wanna see you writhe
'Cause baby it hurts sometimes
Oh let me see you fall
Wanna see you cry
Wanna see you writhe
Baby it hurts sometimes
I know you know
You know what it's like
I know you know
So show me what it's like

Solitude inside me
I don't see why I should
Hide my love
When I walk beside you
Do you only smile to
Be polite?
Oh, be quiet
'Cause you don't
even have a clue
Just what I wouldn't do
To be with you
Maybe I should speak my
mind
Sometime
Would you think about me?
If I wrote a song for
You my love
'Bout my love
But you don't
Even have a clue
Just what I wouldn't do
To be with you

What the woman wants
Text und Musik: Joe Carnwath
unreleased
So you think you've got a nose for what the woman wants
But I know you're nowhere close to what the woman needs
When you say you've got a lot of what the woman wants
It's a shame your talk is not what the woman needs
Callow and amazed you're a fresh faced sucker for her
Making like a lion you're a fly in the juggernaut's lane
It's astute that something new is what the woman wants
But you haven't got a clue what the woman needs
Callow and amazed you're a fresh faced sucker for her
Making like a lion you're a fly in the juggernught's lane
She can take her time
It's a fine line tying what you've got to what you'll get and what you'll get to what your giving away
What the woman wants
The woman gets

Why
so sad
Text

Album: Everything is happening, 2006
Hey
little rich girl, you're prettier than you think. Don't you know?
Yeah little rich girl, you're smarter than you've ever been told
And it's alright, it's alright you're the life of the party tonight
So
why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
When fate ain't dealt you nothin' to cry about
Sure,
it's a bitch that you went and locked your keys in the car
But insufficient cause to warrant how you're falling apart
When it's alright, it's alright I know everyone loves you tonight
So
why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
When fate ain't dealt you nothin' to cry about
And your heritage shouldn't bring you down
Or without the grind
Are you undefined?
Does your trust fund bind your gypsy mind?
Hey
little rich girl, I'd love to help you shoulder the pain
I'm in the dark, where you seem content on letting me stay
But fate ain't dealt you nothin' to cry about
So
why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
Why so sad?
You've
had it easy
You just don't know how easy you've had it
I've heard the victim of comfort thing but forget about it
For my sympathy, you'd better start to make a case
And if indeed I'm missing something
Give it to me straight now
Now
