In a house of woods
In a gown of good
Up a hill where you should
See the ville, daffodil

It's A Small Red Sail
02:35
|
|||
(You smile here)
So I'll buy a sail for the isle
Or stay
Go another place for this while
Away
It's a small red sail but
I could treat it right
Isn't that like the whale
He always tried

Uncle Remus Said
02:31
|
|||
The leopard's pappy got the gout,
From eatin' too much speckled trout.
His mammy dreamed of polka dots—
That's how the leopard got his spots.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
Speckled trout and polka dots—
That's how the leopard got his spots.
More, more, tell us more!
The camel crossed the dessert sands,
With all them mighty caravans.
His bed was full of sandy lumps—
That's how the camel got those humps.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
Bed was full of sandy lumps—
That's how the camel got those humps.
More, more, tell us more!
The pig he saw his monkey friend,
A-swinging by his other end.
He tried the same thing on a rail—
That's how the pig got a curly tail.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
That's what Uncle Remus said.
Tried the same thing on a rail—
That's how the pig got a curly tail.
More, more, tell us more!
More, more, more.

Another Big Ring
02:12
|
|||
Has it been a bigger trouble
Than you wanted to your name?
It's a silly game
And another source of pain
You got to pick a rock and I see
You got the heavy one
It's an easy ton
Try to get it undone
When you're walking and you hear the ting ting
And another big ring
If you only try to sing
Maybe start a little thing

Hereside
02:45
|
|||
I think you can know
Come here and we'll go
There's a place hereside but don't tell no
Do you see them though?
Hello
They sign us blind
And shy away
I'll bring you to show
The space undertow
There's a place herewise but not quite so
Do you see them though?
Hello
They wave us by
And leave to play
Did you see them though?
Let's go
They'll find us lined
To meet today

A True Sign
02:19
|
|||
My life time
I'll spend it sweetly singing
And give me your time
I see you're really something
Daytime
Oh low no
He's had it low
And the light at the door
Brings hobblers of more
With one line
I'll make a fable story
(A true sign)
The old crime
Of summing of too quickly
Daytime
Oh low no
He's had it low
And the light at the door
Brings hobblers of more

Paint the Body
02:51
|
|||
Paint the body of a noble dome-hatted
Kind worn knight who was known once to roam
Though he'd say he had retired before
He would gladly go out for more
Paint the ballet of a beautiful place
That can only be viewed from an island erased
The turns and spinning motions all there to warn
Away the evil of life war-torn
The turns and spinning motions all there to warn
Away the evil of life war-torn
Paint the body a man in contortion
With a wild-eyed smile and a hat top with ocean
He's little unaccountable for
But he'll be happy to see the shore
Paint the body of a slow gnome
With a highpoint hat and a quality nose
He's a mini-headed worker sworn
To quietly live alone
He's a mini-headed worker sworn
To quietly live alone

Be Right
02:33
|
|||
He said he wanted to be right
He said he wanted to be
But when I told him he was not right
He wouldn't listen to me
So when I showed him from way up high
Up in an apple tree
He said "I'm sorry I had thought you'd lied"
"You know what's right for me"
I always thought I'd be a sky man
Or at least learn to fly
Now I'm too old to even reach land
My sail will catch my sigh
So I took him back up that tree
And pointed to a plane
I told him you don't want to be like me
Your life can have a better way

How We Went In
02:28
|
|||
Sitting petting an old soul
We'd better find him a home
(Not like he'll know)
A place like fine dining solo
And bring your name at the door
(If we find us the door)
But he's been ordering wine
There's another in line
He's been ordered in
But he's been ordering wine
There's another in line
He's been ordered in
Sitting out at the old school
We found a hole in the field
(Another hole in the ground)
A sign above it said careful
But we were never well read
(No need to learn how to read)
But we all came back out fine
Though we came in a line
That's not how we went in
But we all came back out fine
Though we came in a line
That's not how we went in
Funny story about that
When they called for the rat
And he slumped in his chair
The sound was pointed right to him
But he would not give in
His face covered by his hair
And they had asked us to sign
Right along the big line
And then they'd say we're in
And they had asked us to sign
Right along the big line
And then they'd say we're in
Well I'm not doing it
No no no no no no

Shy Love
01:27
|
|||
Did a little thing that would drive me crazy
With an upbeat kind of little crazy lady
And the windows only getting more, more, and more hazy
And it's not stoppin driving me crazy
Wanna be a king I'm done bein a baby
But the only honest kingly way is not bein lazy
So I'll find another way that's just a little more shaky
And if I do it right they won't know that I'm crazy
A-ha! Shy love! Shy love!

In Sun Land
01:47
|
|||
In sun land
The sudden man
His right hand pointed up
In sun land
In sun land
We have bright souls
And so much in toil
He's feeling bad
That's how I know
In sun land
In sun land
In sun land
A lightened den
An old man giving up
He's given up
That's how I know
In sun land
In sun land
In this place the lights low
A man will say, "My time to go"
A man will find
His time to go
In sun land
In sun land
In sun land
In sun land

Petty

Our pair was nothing to you
I could tell
Now and then I reach out you
You're a belle
Try to think what I could do
Life
I was told it's going to get better
Our pair was nothing to you
I could tell
Life
I was told it's going to get better
Now and then I reach out you
You're a belle
Life
I was told it's going to get better
Our pair was nothing to you
I could tell
Now and then I reach out to you
You're a belle
I spent my whole life in the dirt
I got some new stains on my shirt
I'm not used to being alert
I think the quiet's starting to hurt
