Welcome back
Welcome back you yellow cat
Welcome back to hotdog town
Welcome back hamburger brown
Welcome back to tinker town
The doors all slam and the blinds fall down
Welcome back
Welcome back you sallow rat
You hit my car with a baseball bat
You made this scar with a ninja star
We’re going to find out where you are
Yeah oh, what’s in the ally?
Towns of trash
Yearning to be seen again

Oh Pizza my lord, my life
Come into my body through my pipes
These very hungry pipes
Oh pizza my lord, my life
Come into my body through my pipes
These very pipes I use to sing to you at night

Paradise

I never was awake to be with you
I never was around with my head deep down in the dumps
And all I ever did was sleep
For the life that you spent with me
I went out there to plant a seed of a dream
I bought a driveway in Paradise
After it burned to the ground
I bought a lot for whatever I want
With everything I had down
My father said to me young man
You’re never going to make it like me
You have to go somewhere I don’t know
To be that free
Where did all the people go?
Where did everybody go?
When I go there to meet them
I’ll be putting my life on the line
I’ll dream at last in a world of ash
And burn up all of my cash
I found a gold ring in Paradise
Somebody left it behind
I found a town with nobody around
It makes me feel so damn down
Where did all the people go?
Where did everybody go?
Down the road
There’s a supermarket closed
And a cow in hotdog clothes
In the window sign
||: I go again to be alone :||
I found a gold ring in Paradise
Somebody left it behind
I look around and I hear no sound
I smoke that air 'til I die
I bought a driveway in Paradise
After it burned to the ground
I found a town with nobody around
It makes me feel so damn down

If you look at the facts of her life alright
But she had another lead poison dream last night
She seems okay if you turn off the light
But she’s missing a part of the human mind
What the hell it is but you let it die
Something’s not right but it’s time to say goodnight
She’s another one along for the ride with the sand man
On a trip with the sand man

Hamdogs

|

|
Hamburgers and hotdogs hand over fist
Hamburgers and hotdogs on the ground
They told me to have all I can eat
When I got down on the ground
They dumped out all the cakes
Soda and watermelon
They said don’t stop, take all you want
1 2 3 4 Hamburgers down
5 6 7 8 Hotdogs down
Cakes in both my hands
The pockets of my pants
Rocks I found on the beach
Smaller than hayseeds
And I met a woman
We still talk on the phone
Pounds of ham down
They tell me not to drown
Dog in my left hand, burger in my right
If they don’t drive me away soon
I’ll be here all night

Magic Man

|

|
||: Magic Man :||
Say goodbye to the magic man
Losing touch with a sense of obligation
Letting go of the red balloon
Looking at the clock
Even while we talk
One last trick, he’ll be leaving us soon

Old American Place

What's all this
In the city park?
The children's chalk drawings
Are glowing in the dark
||: Old American place
Will it ever live again? :||
I’m the oldest pizza man
I have a new delivery plan
One must go to a soccer field
And one must fly in a plane
What’s all this
In the city park?
Two baby dogs in a styrofoam box
I put them in my shopping cart

Bus

|
These days don’t matter very much
Draw me a picture
Take me aboard a yellow bus
With everybody on it
Driving away
Driving all day
Ten hours
Drying the walls of paint
Reading a magic book
Driving us all insane
Made into some movies
Watch them all in a day
That’s when I call
That’s what I call love
When a friend extends
A peaceful hand
And takes you on a walk
Sometimes make you imagine
Where did they all go?
And what would happen to all of them
If they came back home?
Would they find a nasty habit
And turn themselves to waste
Or find salvation in a family of friends
And signify each day?

Wood

Hey bear, don’t you want some friendship with the friend that you took from me?
Hey bear, don’t you want some love with the lover that you took from me?
||: They call me Wood :||
Nothing more, nothing less
I’m only trying to do my best
||: Only a maniac Wood :||
That’s why I got fired
For making indestructible drones
That is why I made this plan
When I got back home
My family always told me to do my best
I was only trying to pass that test
The movies always show me how to do the right thing
And that’s why I made this drone
Nothing more, nothing less
I’m only trying to do my best
||: Only a maniac would :||
Kill this time with you
Partner in crime with you
What are we going to do
When the time police catch us
And crash this plane on the ground?

About to post on a bean in the backyard
She sees a flower and she’s just about to fly
Nobody knows what she does all day
Nobody knows her, it makes me want to say her name

Waterman

Waterman, waterman down
Down in the dumps there under the ground
Waterman, waterman up
Up in the heavens with wine in his cup
There was a man without a name who came ashore our town one day
His life was born upon a boat to eat bologna by the bay
He was blind to the way he made the young one’s dream grow bright and gay
And drive them up against the family doors until they ran away
Where he drifted, in his wake animals and children came
Towns of trash were left behind and buried in my brain
We told the man enough is enough and followed him with a garbage truck
We got the trash, we got the man and put his body in the land
Maybe Jesus will forgive us for putting his dogs to sleep
But the way they used to run and bark they needed to rest in peace
And when he comes to join them he’ll be riding a boat of food
Full of cheese and hotdog meat to sooth their hungry blues
