I Love That Car

I got a candy apple red mustang

There's nothing faster

Zero to sixty in nothing flat

Yea she's a go getta

If you wanna see her, you better look quick.

She'll be history before you can blink

I love that car

I love that car

Once had a women but I let her go

I just couldn't keep her

She wanted me to trade her for an Eldorado

Not my red senorita

No one comes between us and that's a fact

I keep her engine humming and I'm proud of that

I love that car

I love that car

Women will come and go in your life

They always what you to give

Some what your money

Some what your soul

But my sweet little ride

Just wants to rock and roll

If you need satisfaction in your life

You don't need a bartender

Buy your self a junker and fix her up

There's nothing finer

She won't ask no questions or tell you no lies

And all she wants to do is take you for a ride

I love that car

I love that car

California

That Santa Anna Breeze is calling me

Back to the wine country

Where the rivers flow like chardonnay

And the music plays all day

You and I will be rolling

Down that gentle hillside

Watching the balloons rising

Over the Bristlecone Pines

California

California

She's the midnight moon that follows you home

Just to make sure you're OK

She's the gentle breeze blowing through your hair

When the Sun comes out to play

California

I remember lake Anza

Playing guitar down by the shore

Serenading the angels

Like an Island troubadour

The days were long and sunny then

But now the time has flown by

And I miss the pure inspiration

Of the California sky

Faithful Companion

When I have a need for conversation

Her voice helps me unwind

And I feel at ease as she reveals her special meaning

Listen as she gathers information

For a moment we leave it all behind

While the world outside our door is haplessly waiting

Faithful companion

Guide us through these days

Faithful companion

Take the wheel as our ship sets sail

Faithful companion

Sometimes very late in the darkness

She comes to me and takes control

And I’m overwhelmed by the love I feel

And I know there’s nothing in this world as real

Faithful companion

Guide us through these days

Faithful companion

Take the wheel as our ship sets sail

Faithful companion

Love Comes and Goes

Sun streams through my bedroom window

As I crush my cloud blue pillow

Like a mothers alarm clock

It just won't go away, it just won't go away

We're all on missions of our own

No time to stop and say hello

We're just falling aimlessly

Like leaves on their journey

To the frozen ground, not making a sound

Love comes and goes

Like a midnight Train

That takes you to the

Pleasure and the pain

Love comes and goes

It'll leave you weak

Like a heart attack

Love comes and goes

If only we could just look up

From our designer coffee cups

And find some eyes to look into

And listen to their truth

We're all on missions of our own

No time to stop and say hello

We're just falling aimlessly

Just like leaves on their journey

To the frozen ground

Not making a sound

We're all on missions of our own

No time to stop and say hello

We're just falling aimlessly

Like leaves on their journey

To the frozen ground, not making a sound

Love comes and goes

Like a midnight Train

That takes you to the

Pleasure and the pain

Love comes and goes

It'll leave you weak

Like a heart attack

Love comes and goes

Too Big To Fail

Once we were the light on the hill

A beacon a for the world to see

We stood for truth and justice

Yea that was the American way

Now our government bows to Wall Street 

And does just what it's told

They declare war for profit

They must have sold their souls

It's a corporate need

It's corporate greed

It's corporate domination

Too Big to Fail

The laws don't apply

Too Big to Fail

No need to justify

It must be swell

When your too big

Too Big to Fail

The supreme court's in their pocket
They have gone beyond their reach
Corporation's are now people
And money is now speech 

They spend our taxes on warfare

Then they cry about the national debt
There is no money for healthcare
'cause they gave it to the one percent

It's a corporate need

It's corporate greed

It's corporate domination

Too Big to Fail

The laws don't apply

Too Big to Fail

No need to justify

It must be swell

When your too big

Too Big to Fail

With senators in their pockets

They believe they're chosen by God

To control the wealth of nations

With a wink and a nod

Too Big to Fail

The laws don't apply

Too Big to Fail

No need to justify

It must be swell

When your too big

Too Big to Fail

Framed

Annie Walsh was murdered at the age of fifty one

She was a Manchester factory worker.

Jack Butler arrested Margaret Brown's son

He claimed he was the perpetrator

His name was Bobby, he was just nineteen

He was jailed, October seventy seven

Justice Milmo, said he didn't believe

And told the jury it's a simple decision

There's corruption down at the Platt Lane Station

They're sharing the proceeds of crime

There's corruption down at the Platt Lane Station

And everyone is involved

Believe the detectives or believe Bobby Brown

That would be the jury's decision

Everyone discussed it, all over town 

And it was a short deliberation

They convicted Bobby while his mother cried

He got life in Kirkham prison

Based on all Jack Butler's lies

And the jury's quick decision

There's corruption down at the Platt Lane Station

They're sharing the proceeds of crime

There's corruption down at the Platt Lane Station

And everyone is involved

Bobby was vindicated 2002

Thanks to solicitor, Robert Lizar

He never forgot the cry for truth

In the eyes of Bobby's mother

Now Annie Walsh's killer is still hiding

And it don't look likely he'll be found

But eventually the lord will find him

And he'll burn in hells fire for what he's done

There's corruption down at the Platt Lane Station

They're sharing the proceeds of crime

There's corruption down at the Platt Lane Station

And everyone is involved

The Absence of Applause

It's December in New York City

And the chief is on TV

He plays the audience like a fiddle

But he'll never convince me

I firmly believe he's on the wrong course

So please accept my apology 

For the absence of applause

Oslo brings clear skies

As he strolls the boulevard

He'll be accepting his peace prize

With his wife and bodyguard

But outside the protest is full force

So please accept my apology 

For the absence of applause

He would stop the war in a minute

If his children were on the line

But it's only collateral damage

When the casualties are yours or mine

He's got spit shined shoes

And he says he wants peace

But he ordered 30 thousand troops

And I see gloom on his face

He says they'll be fighting a worthy cause

So please accept my apology 

For the absence of applause

Now somewhere in Afghanistan

Our enemy takes aim

A scream fills the air

As the bullet makes its claim

Another beautiful life is lost

So please accept my apology 

For the absence of applause

He would stop the war in a minute

If his children were on the line

But it's only collateral damage

When the casualties are yours or mine

It's December in New York City

And the chief is on TV

He plays the audience like a fiddle

But he'll never convince me

I firmly believe he's on the wrong course

So please accept my apology 

For the absence of applause
