Vegas
Yes you and I are free to be
Yes you and I are free to be
Verse 1:
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas
Whoever said that has never been in love
Jack said to Jacqueline it’s over darling
Harvey took his life we may never know
Pre-Chorus:
We reached to moon what’s left to do?
Can you tell what I’ve been through?
Chorus:
Ships are sailing on the ocean
Feet are running on the beach
Can you feel the air that’s all around us?
Baby be glad it’s me
Verse 2:
Yeah we built the atom bomb before them
Bigger minds blow up the ones that are too weak
Did Evil Knievel jump the canyons?
The greatest time to be alive has come and gone
Yes you and I are free to be
Yes you and I are free to be

Mosquito King
Mosquito king come back next year
Our home will be your home
The days grow dark as nights get cold
These years just make us old
I miss the snow
Climbing up our backyard tree
We fall and get back up
Leave the dirt and scuffs we gather
Mom will wash us off
The sky will lay a sheet of snow
For us to lay and grieve
If all the world were just one room
I’d stay to be with you
Da, Da, Da, Da, Da, Da, Da
We chose to live alone
Da, Da, Da, Da, Da, Da, Da
Where the hell is home?
Home
Home
Mosquito king come back next year
Our home will be your home
The days grow dark as nights get cold
These years just make us old
We’ll never know
I drove for hours last night looking for you
I drove for hours last night looking for you
Where are you?
Tell me where are you?

Can’t Talk To Girls
Verse 1:
Ditch me after school I’ll tell your mom that you were drunk in the halls
I’ll tell mister him and you’ll tell misses her you were not
Have you had your face punched by a fist?
Shiny metal things oh yeah you’re making the list
Chorus:
Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo
I was never even friends with you
Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo
I was forced to be alone with you
I CAN’T TALK TO GIRLS
I CAN’T TALK TO GIRLS
Verse 2:
What am I to do if there are green beans I’m allergic to those
Dress up like a man but I’m a square
And I’m a boy in these clothes
Have you had your lines turned back to skin?
Have you had your eyes corrected with tint?
Chorus:
Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo
I was never even friends with you
Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo, Oo
I was forced to be alone with you
I CAN’T TALK TO GIRLS

Mannequin
Verse 1:
There’s a mannequin on its way to come keep me warm
To keep me safe, to listen
Its spine will offer more than modern hearts
And modern way of thinking
Where are you?
Where are you?
Chorus:
Since we have been grown ups
There’s so much to be done
Since we have been grown ups
There is no one to be known
There’s nothing I could have said to prepare you for this
There’s nothing I could have done
There’s nothing I could have said to prepare you for this
For this
Verse 2:
There’s a mannequin in the store where people shop, where people go to feel good
And all the little toys are dressing up to smile with no intention
Where are you?
Where are you?
Outro:
Quin I’ve had you, for all my life for all my life
Quin I’ve had you, you

Anabel
Verse 1
Anabel don’t get out of bed I’ll bring the water and the pills to you
Rest our heads that are cracked and dead from the lives that we once knew
I could have, I should have cared more for you
My spine and brain have cut ties of you
Chorus
Made of sugar and salt you confuse every man
Now my tongue will disintegrate
Enter in exit out
In time her mind will go insane
How patient of me to complain
Verse 2
Anabel walks from house to house looking for a play to stay
Inside the room there’s a beam of light and she’s forced to walk away
I could have, I should have loved you for yourself
But I am no longer a boy or myself
Outro
Anabel in another bed
Anabel cursed the words I said
I could have, I should have cared more for you

Unworn Dress
Verse 1:
Your love is an unworn dress
Your love is an unworn dress
Push us back, push us back and forth
Your face I could never guess
Your face I could never guess
Who are we to know just who you are?
Verse 2:
My heart is a beating cast
My heart is a beating cast
Move in clouds, ships of wood break apart
Your hand has a scar on it
Your hand has a scar on it
A tree cut down, a forest waiting for it

Shooting Rockets
Verse 1:
I saw a man fly up in a spaceship
That’s how I feel about you
One day we looked and the world it was spinning
I’ll never look quite like you
Careful to launch we exploded to pieces
Metal covers my face
Apollo suits we wear as precaution
I hold my breath
Chorus:
We all we all need someone who can
Help us through the night
We all we all need something to
Remind us there is light in the dark
Verse 2:
I saw a man blow up in a spaceship
That’s why I look straight at you
We were aware of the dangers of flying
The clouds are looking for you
The crowd had come to explore and discover
When it claimed there own
Funny to think man invented disaster
Touch the face of God
Bridge:
Yes I am afraid of the dark
Yes I am afraid of the dark
Yes I am afraid of the dark
Yes I am afraid of the dark

George Had Wooden Teeth
Abe’s on my license plate
Illinois thinks he was great
Top hat stay on straight
Gave a people a new fate
Open all your windows
Neil’s walking on the moon
Arm got famous today
Was a Joe yesterday
George has wooden teeth
Today we seldom see
Cut down a tree make a chair
We beat the British fair and square
Richard ruined the man
Left our boys in jungle land
Save only the fortunate few
Never meant a thing to you
Abe where ya going?
Abe whatcha knowing?
Abe where ya going?
To Illinois
To Illinois
