San Joaquin

Walkin' out of king city/ over diablo wash Think I'd open a vein /if I picked another crooknecked squash Smokin' my last drum /spittin' tobacco from my teeth Lookin' down the rows of green/ countin' every leaf

CHORUS:

Well the sun cuts straight through the San Joaquin
Barefoot and bent a god so mean
A rosary, a jute knife, a straw hat, a key
A year of my life for a touch of a cool breeze [.wav|.au]

El niño is blowin hot and dry/a diamondback was in the grass You and I had a dream/ but immigration changed all that Lookin' up into the blue/ flyin' with a red-tailed hawk Gonna find a sweeter life/ I'm tired of all this talk

CHORUS

Gonna lay my head on a rock in a stream Gonna float down the mighty sacramento to the sea Gonna ride on a sturgeons spiny back Well I'm tired of hearing about all the qualities I lack [.wav|.au]


Love Sex and Happiness

When they met the world was free Of danger in-between the sheets He thought his love could overcome The nagging doubt she was no fun

For years she was his little girl And off his tongue dripped shiny faux pearls When she finally held a real strand Her life was more than she could stand

CHORUS

Love sex and happiness
Lost without the right address
That tripping walk they took down the aisle
Seemed Like walking the last mile
Well, their hearts and minds were brave and true
But Lord, that lonely bed was blue [.wav|.au]

He wants the handcuffs and the merry widow black She wants hearts and flowers not a heart attack He has the need to treat her sweetly mean All she ever wanted was to be worshipped like an Egyptian Queen

CHORUS

She never acquired a taste for pain Or his penchant for the strange Sex doesn't always need a prop And sometimes stop just means stop

CHORUS


Perfect Girl

She looks so good I want to get down on my knees and cry. She'll never look at me and I know why. If I could only get the nerve to talk to her. If she could only see past this books cover Then I'd be with the most perfect girl in the world

The thing about looks you either have them or you don't Her first glance tells the story you can see she'll say no If there's only one way for us to be together It's gonna be in heaven forever Then I'll be with the most perfect girl in the world

CHORUS

The most perfect girl in the world is alone
The loneliest man needs someone of his own
I'll put my boot on the neck of fate
Change the luck of the draw
Cause an act of god to make her see through my flaws [.wav|.au]

I'm getting tired of worshipping you from afar I have to touch, not just look at what you are Let me show you, show you that I can I'm just as good as any other man I need to be with the most perfect girl in the world

Sometimes death makes life so clear Other times times my life is just paranoia and fear The end for you is the start for me In your last breath you'll see what we can be Then I'll be with the most perfect girl in the world

CHORUS

Our fates are like two run away trains I'm the only one who can end your pain Something about the way your hair falls on your neck Makes me feel like I'm gonna break... forever


Shotgun Messiah

Long on faith, short on sense When you got the Spirit You can't help but be dense Jesus was a loving man But even lovers hate Come and get me lord Ôcause I can't wait

Ever since I was a boy I've been cryin' and praying to God Come and get your son You left in the modern world All those false prophets, saying their the man They can't say it the way my shotgun can

CHORUS

I'm a shotgun, shotgun messiah
Shooting my way into the promised land
I'm a shotgun, shotgun messiah
Now the lions gonna lie down with the lamb
Well the lord sure works in mysterious ways
Pushing the world to the judgment day [.wav|.au]

Waco is a dead dry town just like Bethlehem And the devil's after me just like he was him I got twenty kids standing by my side I'll tell you this, they won't take us alive

I can hear now god's secret plea And Gabriel's trumpet blowing reveille Texas guns and god, a holy tradition So praise the lord and pass the ammunition

CHORUS

From the bottom down to the top Fire cleanses a sinners soul some things only god knows and hell's just a burning hole

CHORUS

Do as I say not as I do Blind faith in me will keep you true Don't trust in any other man The one true god has the only plan

CHORUS
