Blusher
Virgin bride, nearly twenty-five
Spends her time manning the front line
The whites of their eyes
The delicate way she mowed them down
Bathroom eyes
Shower curtain thighs
Ah you guys
Young naked and shy
Sally got smacked with a blue nap-sack
Just before she passed out from blood loss and boredom
She had just packed and was about to go back
When she opened the boys bathroom door and saw them
Unbuttoning their flies
To piss into holes cut in the ground
Such sensitive guys
To red faced and shy to turn around
Blusher
Mother Theresa dancing
On the head of a pushpin
Penetrating your moist skin
Caught

Kaleidoscope (Do You Recall?)
Did we just go south?
Don't feel like sleep
Did I go under?
Warm wind on skin
Here I have been
All so familiar
Under big yellow sun
Instead of walking we run
All the way to the sunday school bus
This is where I lived
This was my house
These were the colors
Orange, sky-blue, green
Smell of gasoline
And gas from a distance
Under big yellow sun
Instead of walking we run
All the way to the end of summer
Do You Recall no fear at all?
Stained-glass windows
And puppet shows
Rows of houses
Mother's blouse
All the things that we've done
And everything we'll become
Present, future and past move as one
Do You Recall no fear at all?
Stained-glass windows
And puppet shows
Rows of houses
Mother's blouse

Catch You On The Way Down
I ate from the tree
And now I've got a mouthful of ideas
Been loosing the thread
Yeah that was what your dad said
Looking me over
I get out of line
I feel kind of queer
Out here
I'll Catch You On The Way Down (Fallen)
Going my way dear
I'll Catch You On The Way Down (Angel)
Going my way
You can look but don't touch
Don't think on it too much
Is what they say and such
Don't give me that look
You go by the Book
That doesn't interest me
I woke up today
With something to say
Hey hey
I'll Catch You On The Way Down (Fallen)
Going my may dear
I'll Catch You On The Way Down (Angel)
Going my way
I'll Catch You On The Way Down (Fallen)
Going my way my dear
I'll Catch You On The Way Down (Angel)
Going my way

Are We There Yet?
Are We There Yet?
Are We there Yet?
I've been in the back seat
Cant see for the sights
Blocking everything behind them
Things like my ship coming in
On the cluttered horizon
Girl in the boat baked me a fruit cake
Its your favorite, she'd say
Are We There Yet?
Are We there Yet?
I'm not feeling sad
Its just the wind in my eyes
We must be doing 50 easy
Is this Portugal?
We aimed for Spain
Close in every way but still wrong
Where's the finale
Thirty year intro, aoh
Are We There Yet?
Are We there Yet?
Been driving and driving
Been passing things twice
But I'm not worried cuz
In the end they arrived
Remember in the movie
In the end they arrived
Remember in the movie
In the end they arrived
Remember in the movie
In the end we arrive...
Somewhere
Are We There Yet?
