Bluer 03:08
Bluer Verse 1 I was so sad and lonely I decided to write about you I looked back at what I wrote And my blues gave me the blues Chorus I was blue But now I’m bluer Verse 2 All the times I took for granted All the things you did for me Now I’m here left stranded With only me for my company Chorus I was blue But now I’m bluer Verse 3 Now I see that you met someone new Now dark days don’t fall on you One question before you go Is it true you don’t have the blues no mo

More like sheep Verse 1 All the wolves out there, more like sheep Chasing their fortune, the American dream Pride in excess, look down on the poor Flaunt your wealth now baby, the government you control Chorus A Line em up More like Sheep Chase your fortune To the guillotine Verse 2 Buy yourself, out of the rules Contracts for freedoms, your paid for schools You live in a bubble, you created for yourself You hide behind walls, you hide behind your wealth Chorus Verse 3 The natives are restless, hungry for their share You covet it all, without a care Your opulence, held so dear Will make you lie, to fatten their fear Chorus

All In Vain 03:04
All In Vain Verse 1 I came home last night, like I often try to do Stuck my key in the lock, and I felt like such a fool The lock wouldn’t turn, maybe this ain’t my house See I drink a lot, got a real dry mouth I knew it was the right place, cause I can hear you shout You’ve been gone for two days, now I want you out Chorus I tried to be good, all in vain I just need something to curb the pain Not sure what ails me but I know the cure This works well that I’m sure Verse 2 I thought to myself, could this be true A two day blackout, that’s good for even you I plead for a minute, but she’s firm in her view So I wave her good bye, and hello to Johnie Blue I tried to recollect, the two days that I lost Went back to the bar, ordered a whiskey on the rocks Chorus Solo Verse 3 I find the best solutions, to lifes great mysteries Drink life as it comes, drink it in twos and threes Was I a good boy or did I sin, what kind of trouble did I get in I finished my drink and got on my way Not sure where to go cause ain’t a place to stay Chorus2x I tried to be good, all in vain I just need something to curb the pain Not sure what ails me but I know the cure This works well that I’m sure

Pretty Pretty Verse 1 I’m going to use you Then I’m going to lose you There ain’t no use in me hanging round You’re so trusting That you disgust me I want your whole world burnt to the ground Chorus Pretty pretty you’re the only one Pretty pretty we’ll have lots of fun Pretty pretty watch you come undone Pretty pretty this is your song Verse 2 We’ve waited this long That I can’t be wrong Are you frightened by the sound Chrous Verse 3 Now that you’re gone I can’t have any fun I should have been saving you all along Chorus

Verse 1 Man on the corner, rubbin two pennies to make a dime Man on the corner, rubbin two pennies to make a dime His troubles don’t concern you, you don’t have the time His troubles don’t concern you, you don’t have the time Verse 2 Color doesn’t make a man, it’s the content of his soul Color doesn’t make a man, it’s the content of his soul The old way is antiquated, it’s time for us to grow The old way is antiquated, it’s time for us to grow Verse 3 The world keeps turning, don’t get left behind The world keeps turning, don’t get left behind You are the evil, before you die You are the evil, before you die You are the evil, before you die You are the evil, before you die
