WORLD BOSS
Rich man shaking in his shoes
Poor man drowning in his blues
Lovely ladies take their place in line
People on the street yelling "it's time, it's time"
World boss is coming
World boss is coming
Businessman sold everything he owns
Junkie's pretending he ain't never jonesed
Politician sneaking through the crowd
Super savior soldier cries out loud
"Everybody have you heard the news?"
World boss is coming
World boss is coming
World boss is coming
World boss is coming
World boss is coming
World boss is coming
Everybody have...
Everybody have you heard the news?
NO REWARD
(Ah, get out your lifeboat baby
it’s gonna be a long night
time to sink or swim
Ah don’t you worry ‘bout him)
I see you staring at me
You think maybe I got the recipe
Oh, but I ain’t gonna share it
Sometimes baby you might have to grin and bear it
There’s no reward for the shy one
No reward for the shy one
Put on your sweatsuit baby
Need I say more
We’ll both be dripping wet baby
Before I hear it hit the floor
There’s no reward for the shy one
No reward
There’s no reward for the shy one
No reward
The neighbors might not approve
Especially if we find the groove
So wipe off that wicked grin
Sit back and tell me where to begin
And I know before we’re through
There ain’t nothing we won’t do
Nothing we won’t do
No reward
No reward
There’s no reward for the shy one
No reward
There’s no reward for the shy one
No reward
No reward
WHISPER IN YOUR SOUL
Lying with your body next to mine
Feels like I'm traveling through time
I feel the whisper in your soul
I feel me losing all control
Never thought I'd be here in your sky
Waited so long for the chance to try
I feel you slipping into space
The whole world's beauty on your face
And I feel,
Like this must be my lucky day
And this feeling,
Don't let it slip away
Cause it feels,
Like I'm spinning in time
And I feel,
I feel fine
Gone is the pain of yesterday
My reputation slips away
I have this history you know
I take it everywhere I go
And I feel,
Feel like it must be my lucky day
And this feeling,
Don't let it slip away
Yeah it feels,
Feels like it must be my lucky day
And this feeling,
Don't let it slip away
Don't let it slip away
Cause I feel,
Like I'm spinning in time
And I feel,
I feel fine
Yeah it feels,
Like I'm spinning in time
And I feel,
I'm feeling fine
I'm feeling fine
I feel fine
CAPTURED
Never wanted to be swept away
I thought I might lose myself
Nobody told me there’d be music, sweet music
Now I got this sinking feeling
And though I try to brace myself
I can feel me start to surrender, sweet surrender
Everything I needed to remember
Everything I needed to forget
When I see you smile, I am a child
I’m captured
Never thought I could love someone
More than I love myself
Nobody told me about forgiveness, sweet forgiveness
Now we’re waving our flag in the air
The one we sewed together
We’re planting our seeds in the ground, roots are growing
Everything I needed to remember
Everything I needed to forget
When I see you smile, I am a child
I’m captured
SCARED TO LIVE
Lights go down on an empty stage
A song is sung for last night’s rage
Lucky old sun shines down
Everything will be fine
Reset rewind
For the hundredth time
And now
It’s time to face the truth
But don’t be scared to live
Life goes on, and on, and on, and on
The world will be here long after we’re gone
Lucky old sun will shine down
And the poets will rhyme
Everything will be fine
Stop wasting time
And now
It’s time to face the truth
But don’t be scared to live
Yeah, it’s time to embrace the loss of our youth
Don’t be scared to give
Don’t be scared to live
Love will prevail
Sure as the stars will shine
And you and I are just part of a master plan
Lights come up
It’s a brand new play
Lessons we’ve learned from yesterday
And all of the rage has finally faded away
Don’t be scared to give
Don’t
be scared to live
STOOP SO LOW
Let’s talk about last night
Yeah, Oh
Let’s talk about last night
I’m so mad I can’t see straight
How could you stoop so low
I know you had too much to drink
I know it was getting late
How coul you stoop so low
Yeah, you wanna get back at me
For something I did last week
You showed your worst side
Then you turned the other check
Guess that’s how you was raised I suppose
How could you stoop so low
Say you don’t remember a thing
Say you’ll never do it again
Say, say, say, say
How could you do me this way
This ain’t the first time, baby
How could you stoop so low
Sure is the worst time, baby
How could you stoop so low
Remember that time down in Mexico
I knew tight then and there I should’ve let you go
Don’t tell me you don’t remember cabo
You was all jacked up in a high speed wobble
Ever since I know you
You been putting on a show
How could you stoop so low
Say you don’t remember a thing
Say you’ll never do it again
Say, say, say, say
How could you do me this way
This ain’t the first time baby
How could you stoop so low
It sure is the worst time
It sure is the worst time
How could you stoop so low
Ever since I known you girl
You’ve been putting on a show
How could you stoop so low
How could you do it baby
I guess I’ll never never know
How could you stoop so low
Say you don’t remember a thing
Say you’ll never do it again
Say, say, say, say
How could you do me this way
FORSAKEN SAVIOR
How does it feel to wake up in all your glory
Maybe you can recall that feeling now
Block out the memories of what happened overnight
Pretend that people aren't rioting in the streets
Pretend they didn't instill you with fear
Foresaken savior
Where do we go from here
Do you have your sights set on another journey
Or is it finally time to throw in the towel
Are you scared the world will never sing your praises
Do you bury your head in the sand
Do you step up and take it like a man
Foresaken savior
it's all in your hands
If you find your way back to reality
I think you'll find it really hasn't changed that much
Foresaken savior
Foresaken savior
Maybe you're out of touch
Isn't the whole story that you don't stop
Never stop believing in the message
We'd all be king if it were easy
But so few can take the pressure of the truth
So few can just refuse to fade away
Foresaken savior
Where do we go today
Foresaken savior
Foresaken savior
Maybe it's time to pray
DONE GOT WISE
Done got wise
To the way you do
Everybody’s talking
Word’s getting around
I hear ‘em whispering behind my back
You’re creeping and peeping
Sleeping all over town
They say it’s a natural fact
I’m your soldier
Your new recruit
Yeah, satisfying your every need
Waiting in the shadows like a monkey in a suit
Ready to do your dirty deeds
Done got wise to the way you do
Done got wise
Done got wise, find yourself another fool
Done got wise
Guess I shoulda’ listened to my friends when they told me
Some people are all they’re ever going to be
Guess I was so taken by your charm and your beauty
I couldn’t see what’s in front of me
Now I’ve been saved, hallelujah
I’ve seen a vision of what you’re putting down
It’s like they say
They say a little dab’ll do ya’
Well find yourself another clown
Done got wise to the way you do
Done got wise
Done got wise, find yourself another fool
Done got wise
Done got wise to the way you do
Done got wise
Done got wise, find yourself another fool
Done got wise
WHEN THE WORLD GETS SMALL
When the world gets small
Feels like it’s closing in
Through it all there’s you
My friend
When I feel like I can’t go on
No reason to aspire
I just can’t rise above, there’s you
Only you
Voices of a thousand years
Ringing in my head
But yours is the only one
That cuts through it all
When the world gets small
Traffic on the highway
Even more in my head
Makes me long for another
Time and place
When life was so much easier
And all my friends were still around
And there was a big smile
On my face
Yesterday I was flying high
High above the crowd
But I know I’m going to need a place to fall
When the world gets small
In dreams I’m flying still
High above the mountain
But I know I’m going to need a place to fall
When the world gets small
FUNNY LITTLE TRAGEDY
Life has finally showed you
It's a mean old world
Cute little soldier
Is now a scared little girl
Always had everything
Just handed to you
Always had it your way
I got to hand it to you
And seeing you now
all broken down, I gotta say
It's a funny little tragedy
a funny little tragedy
a funny little tragedy, oh, oh
You’re standing on my doorstep
You say you got nowhere to go
You're all soaking wet
I never seen you so low
Sorry if I don't fall
For your tricks again
But I seem to recall
The way you did me in
And now your new lover
has left you high and dry, I gotta say...
It's a funny little tragedy
a funny little tragedy
a funny little tragedy
Yeah, I dreamed about this day
Seeing you down this way
Thats all I’ve got to say
Maybe some day
if I see you again
Things will be different
we can say we’re friends
But for now I believe
You better walk away
Lttle soldier and me
Will go our separate ways
And I can watch you walking-tears running
down your face
It's a funny little tragedy
a funny little tragedy
a funny little tragedy
Yeah, I dreamed about this day
Seeing you down this way
Thats all I got to say
Ah One, two, ah one, two, three, four
BRING ON THE MUSIC
(I’m gonna tell you a story
I got something to say)
People I woke up this morning
Thought it was just a dream
Another real good friend of mine
Lost his way it seems
Shook my head and wondered
What’s happening to all my brothers
Made me stop and realize
Its time to love one another
It’s time to love one another
So bring on the darkness
Tonight it’s gonna be our friend
Bring on the crowd
We’re all family in the end
Bring on the smoke and mirrors
Spread a glow across the night
And bring on the music
Everything’s gonna be alright
Gonna be alright
Thought I heard
A stranger calling out my name
It wasn’t so loud just so nice and plain
Made me ask myself,
Wonder, is it my time?
But I got so much to live for
So much to live for
So bring on the darkness
Tonight it’s gonna be my friend
Bring on the crowd
We’re all family in the end
Bring on the smoke and mirrors
Spread a little glow across the night
Bring on the music
Everything’s gonna be alright
People when I lay down this evening
At the end of a long hard day
I don’t wanna be another brother
That’s lost his way
I want to look around me
And cherish everything I see
I want to look behind me
And know this is my destiny
I want to keep rejoicing
Till I’ve said all I have to say
And when my voice is gone
I wanna pick up my guitar and play
Pick up my guitar and play
Pick up my guitar and play
So bring on the darkness
Tonight it’s gonna be our friend
Bring on the crowd
We’re all family in the end
Bring on the smoke and mirrors
Spread a little glow across the night, night
Bring on the music, bring on the music, bring on the music,
Everything’s gonna be alright,
Be alright
