Wait for Me

She’s the only living person in this place
All ya gotta do is just look at her face
You know you’ve got to kinda wonder if she lost her mind
I know I hit a three pointer in the nick of time
Some luck, cause now the US Navy’s sinking my only hope
Shipping me out of the States
Everything I ever wanted in this world is gonna float away, unless you

Wait for me. Wait for me.
I got a few things in mind if you’ll only

Wait for me. Wait for me
I’m begging please will you wait for me! Oh!


That’s right now everyone imagines the impossible girl
Step back the line goes all the way out to the methodist church
Some luck cause now the US Navy’s sinking my only hope
Shipping me out of the state
Everything I ever wanted in this world is gonna float away, unless you

Wait for me. Wait for me.
I got a few things in mind if you’ll only wait for me. Wait for me
I’m beggin please will you wait for me!
Wait for me. Wait for me.
I got a future in mind if you’ll only wait for me. Wait for me
I need to know if you’ll wait for me! Oh!


She’s the only living person
She’s the only living person

Geodesic Dome

I had to look it up
How do these shapes converge?
To distribute every ounce of this house, an amount paramount to the load count
What the heck is up?
When you’re on the verge
And tip your imbalances, flip your malice, so callous, around our round palace

No beginning, no end, top to bottom tessellated
I stopped grinning, my friend
Call it stress related, gonna escalate

Maybe your love is around the corner, but I keep circling, hurdling the falling support
Bound to surround the town, In profound nouns, while I’m upside down here lying on the floor

I don’t feel whole, like there’s half of me underground
What’ll I find when I start digging down?

I’m all alone
I’m all alone In a geodesic dome
I’m all alone
I’m all alone In a geodesic dome
In a geodesic dome


And now our skeleton
Is just a shell again
Half a ball of frozen pipes
You’re out there, I’m still inside
The size wire that we required for the dryer was higher to prevent a fire.
You show up with a smaller gauge, and blew it up, erupting in a ball of rage

Caught me looking at a tiny home
I never wanted to buy a geodesic dome
I need plum wall to lean against
I need a level plane not lying gonna say again

Maybe your love is around the corner, but I keep circling, hurdling the falling support
Bound to surround the town in profound nouns, while I’m upside down here lying on the floor

I don’t feel whole, like there’s half of me underground
What’ll I find when I start digging down

I’m all alone
I’m all alone in a geodesic dome
I’m all alone
I’m all alone in a geodesic dome
I’m all alone
I’m all alone in a geodesic dome
I’m all alone
I’m all alone in a geodesic dome
In a geodesic dome
In a geodesic dome
In a geodesic dome

You’re a Liar

You criticized me, from your place of hiding
Who’s that behind the sleeper sofa?
Said he’s your gay friend
With you all weekend
(but) Gay guys don’t wanna see Dishwalla
Did you go to private school?
Did you do what your father said to?
Didn’t learn the golden rule…you treat me like a fool
You’re a lie…..err….

You couldn’t stand if your mom and dad whiffed
All of the shit that you’ve been hiding
When I found out you begged not to out you
But it ain’t about you now dammit
Did you go to private school
Did you do what your father said to
Didn’t learn the golden rule…you treat me like a fool
You’re a lie….err….

Im gonna drop
It’s Fine
Cause I’ve lost your mind
It’s only matter of time til you lose mine
Im gonna drop
It’s Fine
Cause I’ve lost your mind
Put the matter behind, cuz I don’t have time

Don’t want just weekends, My hide and seek friend
I’ll always find you in the shadow
Give me my oceans, Not scattered potions
I’m climbing out to feel the mountain
If you want a private fool
I’ll move along to find something new
I got a few intangibles.
My eyes are pretty blue
I’m desire…..able
I’m desire…..able

Im gonna drop.
It’s Fine.
Cause I’ve lost your mind.
It’s only matter of time til you lose mine.
Im gonna drop.
It’s Fine.
Cause I’ve lost your mind.
Put the matter behind, cuz I don’t have time.

Bad for Me

You’re the very thing that I was told I had to stay away from
You’re bad for me
The fairy tale that I was sold I think it’s safe to say
Systematically spread insanity

The way you float, naturally
Moving space to space so fantastically
The way you go, the way you’re free, got others in a rage
Oh, it’s jealousy
A little zealotry
They got a lot to tell me

You’re bad for me
Gotta be bad for me
You’re so bad for me, mmm
You’re bad for me
It’s gotta be bad for me
Please be bad for me, mmm
It has to be…that you’re bad for me

I’ve got to say you have a way of giving me the shakes
You’ve enchanted me.
I want to know if you were told to put it all away cause it’s a tragedy
Fricken tragedy
A human tragedy

You’re bad for me
Gotta be bad for me
You’re so bad for me, mmmm
You’re bad for me
It’s gotta be bad for me
Please be bad for me, mmmm
It has to be…you’re bad for me

DM from you in a crowded room
This ain’t the time or place someone’s bound to see
A pinch and zoom, to worship you
Now You’re burning through my veins
You’re my gravity
Can’t escape your gravity
Scientific gravity

You’re bad for me
Gotta be bad for me
You’re so bad for me, mmmm
You’re bad for me
It’s gotta be bad for me
Please be bad for me, mmmm
It has to be…you’re bad for me

Feeling Pretty Good Lately

Stepping out the old sedan, ahead of the sun
Push a breath in icy hands, a walk to a run
They’ve been feeling pretty good lately

Racing down a crumbled path, ahead of the rain
Counting as the thunders pass, the end of a day
They’ve been feeling pretty good lately
In the morning gonna see

Hey it’s easy. Think it through
Take er easy, it’s all ya gotta do
Hey it’s easy. Think it through


Take er easy. they want a part of you
Flipping through the pages wet, a memory drew
Sniffing glue, the teacher’s pet, a ride after school
They’ve been feelin pretty good lately

Splitting lanes with Jesus arms, alive can’t you see
All the same with no one harmed, it might have been me
They’ve been feeling pretty good lately
In the morning gonna see

Hey it’s easy. Think it through
Take it easy, it’s all ya gotta do
Hey it’s easy. Think it through
Take it easy. they want a part of you


Getting back the old sedan is right in the sun
Push a breath in icy hands, a walk to run
They’ve been feeling pretty good lately
They’ve been feeling pretty good lately
In the morning we will see

The Descending Ending of Bluesy Bruce (The Ponytail Man)

I hung up my leather vest, knowing it was likely for the best
Had to lose that jingle hat, bye bye blues, I’ll never wail again
One thing I can’t do without is playing to an older crowd
I’ll pick up accordion, and I’ll hit up some old folks homes again
It’s too late to use my gift of blues or zydeco
I shoved the bar to just as far as white guys go
But years of beers and three chord tears, all amount to what

Dont cha know
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin, rockin

I’m emulating SRV, STFU he’s GOAT
Maybe I should venture out, find what this whole ZZ Top’s about
It’s too late to use my gift of blues or zydeco
I shoved the bar to just as far as white guys go
But years of beers and three chord tears, all amount to what

Dont cha know
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin, rockin
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin, rockin


I peaked back ten years in June while playing Jack and Jill’s Saloon
The women watched my fingers move, the fellas liked our drummers’ groove
I had a slender figure then, but lifting Fenders with four tens
Resulted in chronic fatigue, now I weigh in at three fourteen
No clothes

The ponytail man wants to keep rockin
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin, rockin
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin
The ponytail man wants to keep rockin, rockin

Posi Vibes

You wanna be in this crew, you best be bringing
That posi-vibe thing, ya gotta be good
You want to feel it too, you best be giving
That posi-vibe thing, ya gotta be good


Gonna meet with our buds it’s about time
Southeast of street called two oh five
Got a bottle just for them so they feel right
Another bottle just for me so I’m not tight
Halloween Valentine Fourth a July
Could ya grab yet another Fifth of Whis-kay
Never wonder if they’re gonna give ya side eye
Everyone is living high on the high life

You wanna be in this crew, you best be bringing
That posi-vibe thing, ya gotta be good
You want to feel it too, you best be giving
That posi-vibe thing, ya gotta be good


Will ya go to a show on a snow day
Could you use a little booze on a Tuesday
Are you game for getting good at the give away
Get a little sweetness other than your birth-day
Don’t be shading out the girl who didn’t dress right
She’s only needs to prove it in and out her own mind
Heaven knows ya got a little bit to occupy
Hella shitty type a way spend your whole night

You wanna be in this crew, you best be bringing
That posi-vibe thing, ya gotta be good.
You want to feel it too, you best be giving
That posi-vibe thing


We want the best for you
The only test is you
If you can rest the cool
To gravitate your ass to focus to be good
Gonna sling a lot cash at bar keep
Wanna tip just a little over eighteen
Heaven knows you

You wanna be in this crew, you best be bringing
That posi-vibe thing, ya gotta be good
You want to feel it too, you best be giving
That posi-vibe thing

Let’s Tackle the Hardest Thing

God it’s cold tonight
There’s stirring in your mind
It’s eating at me slow
Don’t know what I don’t know

Nothing is something

Got to sleep tonight
My chest is feeling tight
Laying so close
I want you still the most
Nothing is something

Let’s tackle the hardest thing, right away
Let’s tackle the hardest thing, right away
Cause nothing is something
Nothing is something


Wondering what I said
I can only imagine with my fucked up head
It’s eating at me slow
Don’t know what I don’t know
Laying so close
I want you still the most

Let’s tackle the hardest thing, right away
Let’s tackle the hardest thing, right away
Let’s tackle the hardest thing, right away
Let’s tackle the hardest thing, right away
Cause nothing is something
Nothing is something

Nevermind! It’s Complicated

Adam won the battle not the war
Like he’s done most every time before

Nevermind, it’s complicated
Nevermind, you can’t relate it to passion you’ll never feel

Jessie Mae was headed for the door
Something made her spin back round for more

Nevermind, it’s complicated
Nevermind, you can’t relate it to passion you’ll never feel

Sunlight crept into his Jessie’s eyes
Every night’s the last he lives a lie

Nevermind, it’s complicated
Nevermind, you can’t relate it to passion you’ll never feel

It’s like a dream come true, without a care or clue
And it’s like a dream come true
There goes another two

Memphis, Boise, Aspen or LA
Sounding better to him every day

Nevermind, it’s complicated
Nevermind, you can’t relate it
Nevermind, it’s complicated
Nevermind, you can’t relate it
Nevermind, it’s complicated
Nevermind, you can’t relate it
Nevermind, it’s complicated
Nevermind, you can’t relate it
Nevermind
Nevermind
Nevermind
Nevermind

We All Move On

Every dream has a scene
Defying reality
When you wake it can take
A moment to be explained

Did I die? Was I there?
But in the end you don’t care
We all move on
To starting a new day

It was luck, all along
I still don’t think I belonged
In a look it was gone
It lasted less than a song

Did I die? Was I there?
But in the end you don’t care
We all move on
To starting a new day

Do I want her back? Sometimes I do
You don’t know the time, invested in her
No one knows what she meant to me

Did I die? Was I there?
But in the end you don’t care
We all move on
To starting a new day
