Tom Waits for No One
04:01

The Holy Roller's on the floor now
They stormed his castle and they crushed his crown
He's on all fours and just keeps wondering
Why time waits for no one
Time waits for no one
If only he had seen it coming first
But his mind was blinded by the myth of his worth
And in the end, he still could not quench his thirst
Because time waits for no one
Time waits for no one
He took too long to make his mind up
Lived in a dream world where the clocks had stopped
Only to find that he had gone astray
Amidst the haze of lazy days
The moon shines brightly off the mirror
A song is dancing in the wind somewhere
Don't take too long, young prince, it all disappears
Because time waits for no one
Time waits for no one

Wonderbread Nostalgic

Some days you're up, some days you're down
I could've sworn I saw you running sideways through the town
Well, your happy days are well on the way
Ride down that straight divide and you can come around again
Somebody calls you from across the hill
But there's no one standing there
It's all up to you if you wanna chase that thrill
But why would you even care?
Just come on through, I can't follow you
But I'm at the bottom of the stairs
And right past this door, the road's well worn
Better choose good friends to get you there
Somebody calls you from across the hill
But there's no one standing there
It's all up to you if you wanna chase that thrill
But why would you even care?
I know the answer that you're looking for
It's not the one that you think it is
It's time to roll up your sleeves and start digging
With the hands that you've been given
Oh yeah!
Wonderbread, you're always dreaming of a brighter day up ahead
I don't wonder why you're always scheming up a lighter load for your head
Don't cling too tightly to what's behind you
Time to elevate your mind
Wonderbread, you've got to build it so let's get you out of bed
Those tricks you hide behind won't save your ass this time
Gotta take a look beyond the wall
'Cause your silly grin and those sideways eyes
Won't sing sweet nothings when you fall
Somebody calls you from across the hill
But there's no one standing there
It's all up to you if you wanna chase that thrill
But why would you even care?
Some day soon I know your garden's gonna bloom
So just keep your head up and I'll see you on the moon, buddy
I know the answer that you're looking for
It's not the one that you think it is
It's time to roll up your sleeves and start digging
With the hands that you've been given
Oh yeah!
Wonderbread, you're always dreaming of a brighter day up ahead
I don't wonder why you're always scheming up a lighter load for your head
Don't cling too tightly to what's behind you
Time to elevate your mind
Wonderbread, you've got to build it so let's get you out of bed
Come on now, get out of bed
Come on now, get out of bed
Come on, come on, come on, come on

Your Old Teenage Ways
05:06
|
|||
You'll keep on running 'till the end of your days
You've gotten used to your old teenage ways
You'll never know, you'll never know
Your heart's like gold but it breaks like glass
You're getting old, but you're still stuck in the past
You'll never grow, if you never know
There'll come a time when all the fancy dreams
You put through the machine
Don't come out the way you thought they would
Just think about the wasted days you've spent
I bet you thought they'd never end
Where have they gone now that you want them
And where were you when we needed you the most?
You tell yourself the same thing every time
It's my advice that you should change your line
But I wouldn't know, i wouldn't know
And what makes you just want to throw it all away
You know the answer but you're just too tough to say
You'll never show, if you never know
Take a look!
There'll come a time when all the fancy dreams
You put through the machine
Don't come out the way you thought they would
Just think about the wasted days you've spent
I bet you thought they'd never end
Where have they gone now that you want them
And where were you when we needed you the most?
It ain't too late to stop and face yourself
I wouldn't want you turning into somebody else
But you'd never know, you'd never know
You'd never know, you'd never know
You'd never know

No Stranger to the Blues
05:32
|

I heard you're leaving for the Eastern side
Well, I hope you know we're gonna miss you
Did you get the fear that life was gonna pass you by
I wouldn't want for that to come true
Well, you left me here with kind regards for everyone
That you ever really cared for
I'll do my best to keep your garden clean
While you're gone
And who's gonna stand by my side
When I'm down at a quarter to three
And if I call out your name with my back against the wall
It ain't you that I'm gonna see, is it now?
No need to worry, I'm not stranger to the blues
I'm in no hurry to shake it
I find that lately, I don't know what to do
So I guess I'll have to fake it
Shoot me a line if you need to talk
You've got my number, come along for the walk
Everybody's gonna be just fine
Well, can't you feel it through the telephone line
I'm alright but my best friend is a long, long ways from home
You're burning bridges that you've always crossed
'Cause that's what you were taught to do
But don't forget that when you play with fire
It might just take a chunk right out of you
Well, it ain't my place at all to tell you how to be
Yes, you're one of a kind
It's just a shame that we couldn't see eye to eye
And who's gonna stand by my side
When I'm down at a quarter to three
And if I call out your name with my back against the wall
It ain't you that I'm gonna see, is it now?
No need to worry, I'm not stranger to the blues
I'm in no hurry to shake it
I find that lately, I don't know what to do
So I guess I'll have to fake it
Shoot me a line if you need to talk
You've got my number, come along for the walk
Everybody's gonna be just fine
Well, can't you feel it through the telephone line
I'm alright but my best friend is a long, long ways from home

- I heard you're looking for the wolf.
- Yes, can you help us?
- Perhaps. We must move quickly and quietly. This way!
- You can't keep running, wolf. There's nowhere left to go.
- We don't want to hurt you - please...
- Don't let his appearance fool you, Cindy. He's ruthless and cunning. Cindy, get back! Cindy, no! NOOOOO!
- I think we lost him, Cindy.
- My leg really hurts.
- Cindy! Behind you! Look out!

Everywhere you go, there's a dark cloud up ahead
And everybody knows, it's a race 'till you're dead
Everywhere you go, there's a dark cloud up ahead
And everybody knows,
Everywhere you go, there's a dark cloud up ahead
And everybody knows, it's a race 'till you're dead
Everywhere you go, there's a dark cloud up ahead
And everybody knows
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy, but his head's on fire
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy, but his head's on fire
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy, but his head's on fire
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy, but his head's on fire
Everywhere you go, there's a dark cloud up ahead
And everybody knows, it's a race 'till you're dead
Everywhere you go, there's a dark cloud up ahead
And everybody knows
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy, but his head's on fire
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy, but his head's on fire
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy, but his head's on fire
I wanna fly by, I'm on the livewire
Just an ordinary guy

(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow)
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, aw yeah!
Well I love you so much that I can hardly stand
But I still can't shake this crippling fear
'Cause I had a notion that I could be your man
But I can't do that from way over here
Too many sleepless nights away from home
I count the many days I'm gone
Out here all alone, I just dream of you
Well, we're just hanging on by a thread
How long can I keep this up?
But I won't let it go to my head
All I want is to sing you this song
Now honey, I love you
Yes, and I apologize for all of my
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Yeah, yeah, all of my
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Yeah
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I've gotta take it one day at a time
Yeah, the hours are dragging on, and the days move so slowly
Well, the pillow turns to lead, and the bed's just as stiff as stone
All these wicked dreams I've been having, they're telling me to go
Well, I tried to call you, I left you a message on your telephone
Too many sleepless nights away from home
I count the many days I'm gone
Out here all alone, I just dream of you
Well, we're just hanging on by a thread
How long can I keep this up?
But I won't let it go to my head
All I want is to sing you this song
But honey, I love you
Yes, and I apologize for all of my
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Just me and my little troubles, wow, wow, wow
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) All of my, all of my troubles
I've gotta take it one day at a time
Yeah, all of my
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Wow, wow, wow, wow
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby
(Troubles, wow, wow, wow) All of my, all of my troubles, yeah, yeah
I gotta go

Hold the line, they're coming in
They wanna snuff your pride, watch you spin
Hold the line, must stay strong
Don't fall back, you gotta sing your song
Hold the line, they're coming in
They wanna snuff your pride, watch you spin
Hold the line, must stay strong
Don't fall back, you gotta sing your song
How many more lives will they take?
How many more backs will they break?
How can you believe what they say?
I won't be deceived another day
The streets are on fire, your children are crying
The news people are telling me there's a war on the rise
Well, it's all coming down, that wall's coming down
Yeah, it's all coming down!
They are the loaded gun, they are the setting sun
Their time's coming to an end
They are the face of fear, they'll try to keep us here
They wanna see how far we bend
They are the loaded gun, they are the setting sun
Their time's coming to an end
They are the face of fear, they'll try to keep us here
They wanna see how far we bend
Hold the line, they're coming in
They wanna snuff your pride, watch you spin
Hold the line, must stay strong
Don't fall back, you gotta sing your song
Hold the line, they're coming in
They wanna snuff your pride, watch you spin
Hold the line, must stay strong
Don't fall back, you gotta sing your song
The streets are on fire, your children are crying
The news people are telling me there's a war on the rise
Well, it's all coming down, that wall's coming down
Yeah, it's all coming down!
