Better Half
Written
by Glen Eagleson
Like a dream, dig the scene by the Cadillac Ranch
A sight for tired eyes to see
Now when I dig up my dirt and plant my seeds
Were tag team champs and your so sweet
You got a way of making sense of things that I can’t grasp
That’s why our love will always be the one that’s gonna last
Cause you’re my better half I want the world to see Honey
I wanna call you my better half
My better half half, you mean the world to me
I’m gonna call you my better half
You can dress me up and I will take you out
I now your going home with me
We’ll be circulating and I know darn well
That you know me better than I know myself
We can throw away the towel and take a drive out of town
Take our time don’t drive too fast
That’s why our love will always last
Cause you’re my better half I want the world to see Honey
I wanna call you my better half
My better half, half, you mean the world to me
I’m gonna call you my better half
When I come home late and I’m all beat up
I’m in a headlock till I lose my lunch
When I wake up in the morning and I have a hunch
Baby, you’ll still be my “honey bunch”
You got a way of making sense of things that I can’t grasp
That’s why our love will always be the one that’s gonna last
Cause you’re my better half, I want the world to see
I wanna call you my better half
My better half, half, you mean the world to me
I wanna call you my better half
my better half, I want the world to see
I wanna call you my better half
My better half, half, you know your rough and mean babe
I wanna call you my better half
My better half, You mean the world to me
I wanna call you my better half
My better half, half, you know your bitchin keen baby
I wanna call you my better half
I wanna call you my better half
I wanna call you my better half

Fairy Tales
Written by Tim Monaghan
Round and
round and round this goes
And every time always explodes
I don’t know what to do
I swear this is the truth
The man I love
the man I married
Seems so nice, he acts so caring
But all that is a lie
It makes me want to cry
I know that I’m
not s’posed to talk about this
And I don’t know if I can talk about this
I remember on my
wedding day
The words “love, honor, and obey’
and now that love is dead
Is wasn’t like they said
It seems the
memory of my past
Is bruises hid beneath dark glasses
My colors still run true
Red, and black, and blue
He told me I’m not s’posed to talk about this
And I’m not sure that I can talk about this
When the one you
love brings pain
And all of love you know has changed
I want to know if other fairy tales all end up like this
And when I close my eyes at night
I need to know that I am right
In knowing I don’t have to take this
And now whenever
he comes home
I’m scared to leave the kids alone
I don’t know what he’ll do
Red and black and blue
He warned me I should never talk about this
But now I know I’ve got to talk about this
When the one you
love brings pain
And all of love you know has changed
I want to know if other fairy tales all end up like this
And when I close my eyes at night
I need to know that I am right
In knowing I don’t have to take this
I don’t know how long I can take this
I just know I don’t want to take this

Isn’t It Strange
Written by Jon Ecklund
Isn’t It Strange
Isn’t It Strange
She said I am the one to blame
It’s all the same
It’s such a shame
She thought my love was a game
What she don’t
know is how I feel
How can I tell her it was real?
It’s really strange
It’s really strange
It’s
not what she said
That was so bad
It’s just that she seemed so glad
It’s in her head
The feelings are dead
“I am leaving” is all that she said

My Impression
Written by Jon Ecklund
My impression of
the day you went away
The situation is one I still regret today
But my postion
was filled with love and of faith
But your reaction was filled with hurt and with hate
All of the days
and every way I tried my best for you
How could you lie to me that way
Let no decision
ever keep you from your home
But your final answer has left you cold and all alone
Mistakes don’t
matter, if you both make amends
But the pain don’t flatter. You know it only loses friends
All of the days
and every way I tried my best for you
How could you lie to me that way
You keep making
rules that I can’t seem to follow
You didn’t realize that you’d be all alone
That’s my
impression of the day you went away
That’s my impression of the day you went away
That’s my impression
That’s my impression
That’s my impression

Superficial World
Written
by Glen Eagleson
Door bell rings,
can it be you
With an alibi, or an attitude
It’s 4 AM, or is it afternoon
If you feel the wrath, you know I feel it too
Your after hour
bar room junkies
Flipping bottle caps at yuppies
Driving by with no respect
For the ill fated derelicts
You can have your
superficial world
Baby let me get used to mine
wanna bring you down from your superficial highs
You can have your superficial world
Baby let me get used to mine
Gonna shoot you down from your superficial skies
A searching soul,
well you’re a splurging fool
Get down to earth; what do I have to do
It’s I lost, If love you lack
If I give it to you, but will I get it back
I have to lie, I
have to fight
To see your face in the broad daylight
Nobody hears you said
It’s just another night of the living dead
You're wearing
blinders, your ears are ringing
you can't smell the flowers or hear the birds singing
see those trees --- are they too real
for the way you think and the way you feel?
You can have your
superficial world
Baby let me get used to mine
wanna bring you down from your superficial highs
You can have your superficial world
Baby let me get used to mine
Gonna shoot you down from your superficial skies

The Harder You Fall
Written by Glen Eagleson
They said some
crazy things,
You know that they’re untrue
That tabloid TV trash is always hard on you
The Sun, Star, and Weekly World
Are always good for laughs
They’ll always find that skeleton
Hiding in your past
You try to put
the Hammer down
What they say is held against you
The only sure thing you can call
Is that the louder you are
The harder you fall
The odds are
against you
and still they say you’re wrong
it’s really no one elses
business but your own
but Someone’s out to get you
You know they’ll say you lied
You should have swallowed your tongue
After you swallowed your pride
You try to put
the Hammer down
What they say is held against you
The only sure thing you can call
Is that the louder you are
The harder you fall

Chains
Written by Jeff Crane
I’ve watched all
these years go by
I realized I lived a lie
All those distant memories
They weren’t what was s’posed to be
I’ve been down like this before
Let me out unlock
the door
I’ll make my way without the chains of love
Everything you
meant to me
It seemed to fade so worthlessly
All the love I had inside
I could not make your heart alive
I’ve been down like this before
Let me out unlock
the door
I’ll make my way without the chains of love
We’ve lost our
security
There’s nothing left for me
You’ve gone the way you wanna go
So if it means a brand new start, I’ve got to cut these chains form
‘round my heart
We can’t seem to compromise
And I can’t stand the lies
You’ve gone the way you wanna go, so whether I like it or not, my
life alone without you’s what I got
“I Don’t Need You”!

Down South
Written by Jon Ecklund / “Rocket” Rod Killian
Comb the old wax from your board
And put some new wax on
Meet me on the PCH
Nancy’s at dawn
Cause it’s going
off down south
And everybody’s going
I’ll be the first to paddle out
The Santa Ana’s blowing
Down South
George had said
“The pier is dead”
South bay’s just flat
Pulled into Lunada
The locals threw “Kak”
So we’re heading
off down south
Some killer waves are showing
I’ll be the first to paddle out
the Santa Ana’s blowing
Down South
It might be San
Clemente
It might be Wind and Sea
We just might check out Trestles
We’ll have to wait and see
Cause it’s going off down south
And everybody’s going
I’ll be the first to paddle out
The Santa Ana’s blowing
Down South
Down South
Down South

I Don’t Lose Sleep Over You
Written by Jon Ecklund
I
don’t lose sleep over you
I don’t worry about what you do
So please, don’t worry about me
Ah, your face
only brings a smile
The same face that brought me pain for a while
But now, don’t worry ‘bout me
It’s a vacation, not reparations, I want from you
But there’s frustrations, knowing my relationship with you, is
through
I could stay the night with you
But that’s not
something that I should do, oh please, don’t worry ‘bout me
Yes there’s frustrations, when your temptations keep coming ‘round
But, I’ll be patient, until a solution is found, it will be found
I don’t lose sleep over you, so please don’t lose sleep over me

I Will Always Be With You
Written
by JS McPherson
Here by the
phone is where you’ll find me when you need me
I’ll be that somebody to you
Anyone that you want me to
Somewhere in your
mind I’ll be the gold you never find
The mountain you never climb
I’ll be the one who gives, but never takes
I will always I
will always be with you
Like a ghost, like ghost in your memory
I’ll keep the fire burning, deep inside of you
I will always be with you
Under the sun
I’ll be the summer in your kingdom
The sand you bury your feet in
The one who covers up, and keeps you warm
We’ve just begun
to give each other what’s inside
The blueprints in our mind
Of the dreams we’re building, and soon we’ll be living in
I will always I
will always be with you
Like a ghost, like ghost in your memory
I’ll keep the fire burning, deep inside of you
I will always be with you

Please Don't Ask
Written by Tim Monaghan
Please don't ask
me how I feel
Knowing you are with somebody else
I just can't take it
I lost alone here with my fears
And seeing you today confuses me
I just can't shake it
If love's a game
to you
Then I don't wanna play
I can't deny the way I feel
My cards are on the table
And I walk away
Maybe someday this heart will heal
Can I ask you why
you're here?
When you walked out
All you said to me was you're unhappy
And then today I find you here
You act like nothing changed
And then you say that you still love me
If love's a game
to you
Then I don't wanna play
I can't deny the way I feel
My cards are on the table
And I walk away
Maybe someday this heart will heal
But oh, the scars are deep
There's just one
thing before you go
I'm not sure if you knew
How much it hurt me when you left me
And though the scars are deep I know
I'm stronger than I used to be
And now I just won't take it

Tell Me
Written by Jon Ecklund
All I’ve seen of
you I’ve
Seen from across the room
All I’ve Felt of you I’ve
Smelled in your perfume
So tell me,
something about you
Tell me, what I should do
‘Cause I’ve never been this close to
Anyone like you
So tell me, something about you
So now here we
are I’m
Trying to pick your brain
Don’t try telling me no
You know it’s not the same
So tell me,
something about you
Tell me, what I should do
‘Cause I’ve never been this close to
Anyone like you
So tell me, something about you

You May Be Right
Written by Jon Ecklund
You may be right
You may be right
But I don’t want to face the facts of the day
Still I don’t mind
No, I don’t mind
I’ve got so many things I wanna say
I never meant for
them to find out
Still I never let that get in the way
But if I had to tolerate another day
Then they might as well as found out anyway
Another time
Another time
I might become the man I wanna be
So don’t waste my time
No don’t waste my time
I’ve got so many things I wanna see

Talk Talk
Written by Tim Monaghan
I’m not saying
anything like “I love you”
‘cause I know you’re not that kind
It’d be so easy to tell you how I want you
If the words weren’t hard to find
Every time I try to speak
(what’s going on inside your head?)
The words, I find it hard to keep to myself
Tell nobody else
To tell you the truth I’m so scared of myself
The only thing that I’m sure about is you
Talk talk
I just want to talk to you
Make the words come out right
Talk talk
I really want to be with you
‘til we must say goodbye
It’d be so easy
every time that I see you
To tell you just what’s on my mind
To tell you how much I am longing to touch you
So much I’ve almost lost my mind
Every time I try to speak
(what’s going on inside your head?)
The words, I find it hard to keep to myself
Tell nobody else
To tell you the truth I’m so scared of myself
Keep to myself, keep my love on the shelf
To you the truth I’m not sure of myself
The only thing that I’m sure about is you
