Cat Calls 03:37
Cat calls Cat calls, cat calls Cat calls, cat calls around the room Cat calls, cat calls around the room, around the room You think you've got me in your head You think I'm wrapped around your finger You think you've got me in your head You think I'm wrapped around your finger Cat calls Cat calls, cat calls Cat calls, cat calls reside resume Cat calls, cat calls reside resume, reside resume You think you've got me in your head You think I'm wrapped around your finger You think you've got me in your head You think I'm wrapped around your finger And we'll call on the lions And we'll call on the lions

Oh, don't be late If you're coming down, won't you close the gate Oh, don't be late If you're coming down, won't you close the gate Take me home, or take me far from here. Take me home, won't you take me far from here? Say you'll change your mind Say you'll change your mind Oh, don't be late If you're coming down, won't you close the gate Oh, don't be late If you're coming down, won't you close the gate Take me home, or where the water rips right through your veins Take me home, or where the forest seeps into your soul Say you'll change your mind Say you'll change your mind Come tomorrow And you don't have to realize Come tomorrow That you know everything you need.

Green Light 02:53
She's taking the back road in the dark So nobody else will see where she goes She's chasing her footsteps further from despair She'll travel into the city and it won't be long before She's walking at the green light And I am holding my predictions She's walking at the green light She's shaking every last conviction Won't you take my breath away? He's counting the months and the compliments He's twisting them into innocent insults He's asking just the wrong question She's made to feel incompetent and it won't be long before She's walking at the green light And I am holding my predictions She's walking at the green light She's shaking every last conviction Won't you take my breath away?

Legba 04:57
The keys are in your hands The keys are in your hands The road is winding Forcing you out of control

Mermaids 02:55
One hit the crossroads Two won't you get in line Background in the foreground Fix another straight line Heating like an engine Spinning like a turbine Take me to the vortex Smoke another wayside One hit the crossroads Two won't you get in line Treble take a chance Take a thin crossed line cuz I'm never gonna see you again.

What do you call the world Energy are you still so crazy All I hear are dogs In the darkness, a peace boat racing And a cannon calls to us all a song I don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna hear it, it's all bad tasting Can you kill the heart, can you go back and get what you wanted? Can you kill the heart, can you go back and get what you wanted? Am I misconstrued, tying two shoes, chalked up as more time wasted Can you kill the heart, can you go back and get what you want in waiting In the fucking closet you are Tied up by the vacuum cord Held up by the foam The suck head already naked And a cannon calls to us all a song I don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna hear it, it's all bad tasting Never here I am, never here I am, never here I am, never here I am, Maggie Cold wind blows, is it hard to lose control Same difference, I was happier you know And a cannon calls to us all a song I don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna hear it, it's all bad tasting

Spare some change for a poor man I'm cold and tired and restless I just need to rent a bed I just need to rest my head Six hour stay for ten bucks The clock ticks hard Close my door, lock it shut Knock, knock, knock your time is up Close your eyes, close your mind Just pretend it's not there Close your eyes, close your mind Just pretend it's not there You can say what you want Take me on the line You can say what you need Darkness in disguise Excuse me miss for a moment I need some money won't you help me? I need to get to St Leo Do you have a few dollars for me? Bleached hair and wild eyes roam Stare into your soul Here you are, society's crutch No one wants to give a fuck Close your eyes, close your mind Just pretend it's not there Close your eyes, close your mind Just pretend it's not there You can say what you want Take me on the line You can say what you need Darkness in disguise You don't have to change your mind Don't look down you can say what you want to me.
