1. I Want To Be A Rock & Roll Star I want to be a rock and roll star I want to drive a big, fancy car I want a house with an underground bar I want to be a rock and roll star Jesse McCartney will come to my home We’ll talk about how he's not a good guy Then he will leave, and it won’t smell so bad I want to be a rock and roll star I want to be a rock and roll star 2. If She Says She Loves Me I can clearly see the days of old When everything was better told And I was so fulfilled My time was filled by you In your room I was with you And, all alone, was with you too The figures that we'd built Would last until the end So where am I now if I'm no longer with you? How can it be that something like that ends? I think I need something outside my head that I can crawl to And I wonder if it's her... If she says she loves me I won't be so lonely Maybe I'll be happy Won't feel so alone… 3. O Girl U R A Diamond (O Girl U R A Pearl) Oh girl, you are a diamond Oh girl, you are a pearl I want to take you dancing Give you a little twirl But now I see a problem A problem with this plan Upon closer inspection I see that you’re a man I see that you’re a man But I'll do what I can 4. Dreams I fell asleep, and saw her face More radiant than the sun I reached my hand to touch it But it was a rhododendron She was a rhododendron Changed to a rhododendron Oh, dreams can be so cruel... 5. Visiting Hours, Op. 89 I was waiting down the hall Thought I heard you try to call. Was it just my mind that kept me waiting For your touch? There is no way we can live I have nothing left to give All I can see's you And that's not fading anytime soon Anytime soon 6. Sirens Slipping down the slide of rampant indecision Time to think of all the bad things coming my way I once had a woman but she had no body Now that there’s no contact I suppose I’m better I went walking down the lane into the forest I heard all the sirens you can shake a stick at When I got back there were red notes taped to my door And I didn’t notice she had turned to plaster 7. Corduroy Pants Corduroy, my corduroy You make me such a happy boy No love will know me as you do And that's okay, it's just we two Sometimes I feel your edges and grooves I put you on and want to move Corduroy, my corduroy You make me such a happy boy 8. A Reminder

9. The Sea Eel The sea eel slithers across the sea floor His world is the ocean, he cannot know more Belief and perception will soon synthesize Existence prescribed by his sea eel eyes He lifts not the veil, yet thinks himself wise He thinks himself wise He is a sea eel 10. And Don't The Trees Look Like Roots Above The Ground? Are you in love? Have you ever been in love? Do you even know what love is? Tell me what it can be used for, anyway And don't the trees look like roots above the ground? Just like roots above the ground Without their leaves in winter, tall limbs brown and bare? But all of the frogs are just leaves drifting down the sidewalk And all of the birds are just trees flying in extension And all of the hurt you feel is felt by other people I turn into a frogless tree and fly off by extension 11. I Went To Way Park Last Night I went to Way Park last night I went to Way Park I sat in the dark last night I sat in the dark Way Park, so dark, so dark, Way Park I sat on the swing last night I sat on the slide I sat on the horse statue And took it for a ride Way Park, so dark, so dark, Way Park And then I went back home I went back to my room 12. Oh, How I Love The Wintertime Snow is on the ground I ride my bike around the town I wave to everyone I see I wait for them to call to me I am not my name: My name is not me Snow is on the ground I ride my bike around the town

13. Blossom (Sleeping) Blossom, are you warm? Are you kind to me? Blossom, am I close to Sunday? Take half of what you need A little more, a little more Blossom, are you crying? Are you staying free? Blossom, do you like the darkness? Sometimes I feel it's closing in A little more, a little more Blossom, I'm afraid I'm not near at peace I'm scared of my place Blossom, tell me I'm a friend It’s all I have, it's not enough Sometimes I stay at home A little more, a little more Sleeping, sleeping 14. Montage Of Flying 15. Look Up! Look up! Look up! If there's anything up high Why do we still wonder why? Look up! Look up! If there's anything up there Why does it not seem to care? Look up! Look up! 16. (He Is A) Baby Man He is a baby man He is a baby man No control over feet No control over hands Eating his rice and beans Eating his rice and beans He is a baby man He will do what he can 17. Ego Death ??? 18. The Soap Opera (Song For Marilyn) "Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Days of Our Lives.” I watch daytime drama TV. Marilyn cheats on Rick with Michael, his twin brother. I stare at a box. Are you looking out? Are you looking in? Do you see me, Marilyn? You look so sincere You look like you just might love me Your hourglass figure: I become sand.

19. Five-Song Suite I. The Comedian's Dream At least they thought it was hilarious It was a joke for all of us But was it something more? Was it something more? II. The Sea Eel, He Is Me I wish I was a sea eel I know I’m just a sea eel Once I dreamed I was a sea eel In a dream I was a sea eel III. IV. 145 V. Sleeping (Blossom) 20. Heading Out Of Town I’m heading out of town. It’s been too long I don’t know if I’m coming back. I’ll leave you with this song I think I knew you well, you weren’t alone I’d seen your face around the school, I’d seen you walking home We saw our futures, passing lines To weave once and be lost in time And so we’d go in separate ways Beyond the hills, we watch it fade I kept you for a time when days moved slow In vivid dreams I saw your face: the half-light made it glow But still I didn’t fit into this end Through every alter ego played in strung-together trends I worry now, but it might be That no one out there feels like me Is this what age begins to show? We lose those years to ebb and flow? I'm fearful that I’ll miss your voice Or that I will regret the choice The light is brightest as it fades We search it in a murky haze And so I am alone. There’s no one here The sunset comes quite early now. At night, the weather's clear I settle down to bed beneath some sky But never will I sleep again: not with it on my mind If you’re as happy as you say What's left behind can pass away Some morning it will vanish then So as it comes, is gone again But if you start to wonder why Or if the arms become the lie Our memories will supersede The distance that our lives decreed And when I finally make my bed Your vision stays within my head Let when I wake the world be new And all my thoughts flow back to you 21. Once I Was A Child, Now I Am A Man Once I was a child, now I am a man. If I can go back there, is it just in dreams? Once I was a sculpture, now I am an ice pick. I can still remember: Was it all a dream? Was I only dreaming? Goodbye.

about

There was a room
and the room was a tunnel
and at the end of the tunnel was God.

And I saw God as a blue jay
and I sneezed
and God flew away.
