Worry Doll
03:21
|

God gave Job a worry doll
Held it close while his sky did fall
Slept down on the pavement
Wrapped himself and played it
God saved Job with a worry doll oh yeah
Jesus crept into the desert with a worry doll
He was tempted from below to dig a hole
He said, “devil, you thought he’d shunned me
But he cast a light upon me”
God saved Jesus with a worry doll
There’s the devil inside that keeps me to my reasons
There’s the devil outside that stings me til I hurt
A third that haunts my dreams and my visions
Then there’s the one who tries to keep me on this earth
Dreamt I was standing at the gates in line
Wrestling with this head of mine
I asked him for my own worry doll
To sift the outer reaches of my soul
Say his name— no worries
Speak his name— no worries
Take that fall
Grab your worry doll

Blood
05:05
|
|||
God don’t make promises he can’t keep
He’ll bind your soul to heaven if you walk in his feet
Be mindful of his rules and don’t you go in debt
God knows he will collect
Abel’s blood soaked the ground at Cain’s feet
God spoke no manner of retreat
Marked and shamed, Cain was forced to wander out
God’s vengeance is devout
John Brown saw visions while he lay
Veins raced disturbance when he’d pray
Though he shot his gun to count that freedom ring
By his neck John Brown did swing
Blood led you to the mountain
Blood will fill you while you roam
Blood, it’s said, is only dire when red (Blood, it seems, will haunt you in your dreams)
Blood will follow you home.

Drinking well from the water
I stay glued to my TV set
It’s locked my brain with the die cast
I comb these walls with a spyglass
Drinking water from the well
Those people are going to hell
I stay glued to my TV set
Steels of nerve ain’t lost yet
The newsman is the DJ!
The people listen to what he say
The newsman is the DJ
I wanna wanna what he say
I don’t want to leave this town
I don’t wanna leave this town
My arms shake by the split screen
My eyes rake through the blonde queens
I stay glued to my tv set
I stay glued so I don’t forget
Everybody wants to do the breakdown now
Everybody wants to do the takedown now
I stay glued to my tv set
Drinking well make my hands set

Jesus Loves the Sinner
03:50
|
|||
Jesus sent a sign to the masses
Laying seeds for the collapsing
If times don’t change sometimes they bleed
Jesus wept, now he grieves
Jesus lay his sins down on a Sunday
Forgiving souls that said he’d run the wrong way
But Jesus never blamed the thieves
Jesus took, now he grieves
Jesus walked toward sorrow, wandered, dealt and borrowed
Jesus sent a sign to the masses
Jesus spied the reason for his mortality
Laying seeds for the collapsing
Jesus loves, Jesus loves the sinner

To Do

I spied my lover through that broke screen door
I tore my baby down
In my younger days, memory me
I’d have shut that door closed mouth
The to send a sign out to the masses
Layin' seeds for the collapsing
Seeds for the collapsing
And I’m waiting, I’m waiting
Why won’t you come for me?
I called the clerk, I called the church, I called the dealer
Spoke to the man who runs the mortuary
I’m sick on love
I’m sick on love
Have mercy me
Now my bent knees can’t remember
Where I’ve laid my head for days
Idle hands gave no warning
And I’m waiting
I spied my lover through that broke screen door
I tore my baby down
In my younger days, I once believed
True love was devout

Smoke (gets in yr eyes)
04:44
|
|||
I woke up this morning from a fever
Fumbled through the cushions for my receiver
No doctor did I call- no medicine could decide
I got worry, from the poison’s been prescribed
Do I disapprove?
Cause you might be moved
To tears?
If you want to fight about it
I got worry, things seen in my dream
A torch song doused in gasoline
I woke up this morning from a fever
I woke up this morning from a fever
Torch songs
Can’t be wrong
Until you try to put em out
Smoke gets in yr eyes
What you see is no surprise
Smoke gets in yr eyes
Ain’t no real surprise

December's Child
03:18
|
|||
I woke up
in love
This morning
That much is true
Don’t say those things to me
I go along willingly
Because I know
By the afternoon we’re through
Yesterday I lost my mind
I can’t write another line
For awhile
December’s Child
True words from one to four
Came knocking at my door
Then you blamed the start
The part that split the verse’s heart
Yesterday was killing time
Tomorrow expects faults and mines
For awhile
Just take me to a place
Where I can breathe and erase
The sound
Before it drags me under

Pieces
05:28
|
|||
A worried man
says times have changed
Worried minds— worried pains
Turn em out— turn em in
Again n again
When you’re world is turning down
When you’re world is turning down
To stop the fire
You get a little bit higher
Like it’s simple
Stuck like a pin
We all walk the same again
Like a river- slowly flow-n
In our times alone
That’s the way the world goes wrong
I get a little bit higher
What happens when we fall to pieces?
