I don't have any words to tell you how I feel
everything around me seems so real
but I can call to mind a time when you once held me near
and everything around me disappears
once upon a time you sighed and whispered in my ear
made up words with meaning still obscure
you could give the high sign to anybody here
and all the while I'm feeling no less sure
you are the stars that shine
you are the reason why
I haven't seen you now since 1993
wonder where you've been and what you've seen
now and then I wonder too if you ever think of me
and the love that never was to be

something good

you're hiding something good from me
why won't you open up to me
don't keep me from what is mine
all I want is your heart & mind
I see, the signs are everywhere
showing me that you really care
all I want is what's coming to me
only you can set me free
there's nothing I haven't seen before
there's nothing special behind the secret door
you can keep your bedroom eyes
and you can keep your languorous sighs

that's so you!

that's so you, you're
acting like yourself again
that's so you, you're
living in your own skin again
and it's true you never cared too much for me
we'll wait until the wait is over
and set you free
when the temperature's rising
and your prospects begin to fall
won't you write me a letter, won't you
give me a call
I'll be there in a hurry, baby
just as fast as I can
I'll be in a hurry baby so I can be your man
that's so you, you're
making sure the job gets done
that's so you, you've got
big plans for everyone
and it's true you never cared too much for me
we'll wait until the wait is over
and then you'll see

monkey trouble
02:50
|

|
domestic strife
fighting for your life
what you got is monkey trouble
head held low
you can't say no
you can't say no to monkey trouble
following your star
to your favorite bar
you're gonna mix up some monkey trouble
then you take affright
and you run all night
you're running toward more monkey trouble
oh you've really done it this time
a setting sun
a job well done
you had your share of monkey trouble
now your time is passed
we're not built to last
one can handle only so much trouble

in nowhere land
03:22

which way is down I can't refuse
another opportunity, a chance for me to use
all the nasty tricks that I learned from you
I could show you a thing or two
about good manners when you lose
in nowhere land
which way is down I can't decide
we could do our very best bonnie and clyde
we could lock the doors and stay inside
it's all the same to me
as long as you play happily
in nowhere land
which way is down I cannot see
what's in it for you, what's in it for me
what's in it for anyone you please
one day you'll see the light
and then I know you'll get it right
in nowhere land

twitchin'

twitchin' twitchin'
on the floor
twitchin' twitchin'
like you did before
you were twitchin'' twitchin'
by the hour
you were twitchin' twitchin'
like a nervous flower
twitch in the front, twitch in the back
twitch until you have a massive heart attack
twitch in the morning, twitch in the evening
twitch until you get that feeling, you're twitchin'
into the night
twitchin' twitchin'
it don't seem right
to be twitchin' twitchin'
all alone
to be twitchin' twitchin'
on the telephone
twitch with your mama, twitch with your pa
twitch with your best girl back in arkansas
you give her a wink, you're winking again
you wink a third time & you're not really winking
you're twitchin'
