Unsung
if only I could get into that corner of your head
where things finally match and meet the standards that you set
oh how I wish I was the treasure that you were lookin' for
bet I would feel better if only I could find the door
I am cryin'
you aren't tryin'
I am melting away
I wait for the words on the tip of your tongue
I'm only as good as the last one
well you decide and I abide as my song goes unsung (yeah

Corndog
i was all alone on a saturday night
and the funny thing is, we didn't even have a fight
i stayed up all night cryin'
and i slept all day, and missed the game
inside i think i'm dyin'
i just can't figure out how she slipped away
i was out all night monday in dallas
and the strangest thing is, i can't remember a thing
i was drunk and drinkin'
and i woke up in my best friend's car
my friends say i've gone crazy
i still need to find out how she slipped away
i've no idea what i did
she just told me,
"have someone check your head"
let me ask you, do you think that i was wrong?
trying too hard? maybe i came on too strong
tryin' to find
tryin' to find
tryin' to find a reason not to leave your side
tryin' to find
tryin' to find an answer, before i lose my mind
i was at a club real late last tuesday
and the weirdest thing is, i can't remember her name
i stayed up all night
tryin' to make her face look just like yours
and she ended up cryin'
i still need to find out why you slipped away
i've no idea what i did
she just told me,
"have someone check your head"
let me ask you, do you think that i was wrong, yeah
trying too hard? maybe i came on too strong
tryin' to find
tryin' to find
tryin' to find a reason not to leave your side

There was a time
When I was so broken hearted
Love wasnt much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned, yeah
cause me and them ways have parted
That kind of love was the killin kind
Now listen
All I want is someone I cant resist
I know all I need to know by the way that I got kissed
I was cryin when I met you
Now Im tryin to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin just to get you
Now Im dyin cause I let you
Do what you do - down on me
Now theres not even breathin room
Between pleasure and pain
Yeah you cry when were makin love
Must be one and the same
Its down on me
Yeah I got to tell you one thing
Its been on my mind
Girl I gotta say
Were partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you give to me
Takes my breath away
Now the word out on the street
Is the devils in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames
Its a fire I cant resist
I was cryin when I met you
Now Im tryin to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin just to get you
Now Im dyin cause I let you
Do what you do to me

Aint where your love should stay
Yeah, our love, sweet love, aint love
If you give your heart away

Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin just to get you
Now Im dyin just to let you

On Every Corner
Keith Knudsen, Zeke Zirngiebel
Hollamule Music (ASCAP) / ZCreatures Music (BMI)
Brother, you've fallen far behind.
What is it that's on your mind?
Sister, oh how do you decide?
What do you see through your clouded eyes?
On every corner I turn to,
Some variation of "help me please,"
Can't pretend I don't see you there.
How should I feel?
Brother, you've fallen to your knees.
What do your children need?
The distance is never out of reach,
There's only inches between you and me.
On every corner I turn to,
Some variation of "help me please,"
Can't pretend I don't see you there.
How should I feel?
Hey, mister, well I'm lookin' your way, you know
I wouldn't ask if things weren't like they were today.
Count up the corners of 'em, add up the dollars for 'em.
Hey, mister, well I'm lookin' your way, you know,
Ten thousand of 'em all over town.
I wouldn't ask if things weren't like they were today,
But is it really helpin', whatever I do?
Hey, mister, well I'm lookin' at you, you know
Will I feel good about it, will I feel a fool?
I hate to beg, 'cause I feel like such a fool?
On every corner I turn to,
Some variation of "help me please,"
Can't pretend I don't see you there.
How should I feel?

Corner Of My Mind
I can see a man
Walk away and bend his head
He won't turn around
And there is her mom
Lookin' desperate and sad
And night is slowly fallin' down
In a corner of my mind
I can feel the time rewind
A little girl who stands there cryin'
Her little hopes are dying
In a corner of my mind
Are the tears i left behind
Just memories of a stolen heaven
Gone away forever
Lots of dreams that once were mine
I can always find
In a corner of my mind
And that little girl
In a ragged yellow skirt
She looks very scared
Hears her mother say
Girl - don't wanna see you hurt
He's gone - but he will always care
In a corner of my mind ...

If I had my druthers Id go fishin
Find myself a lake and a lazy day

Get off the old caboose get on my way

Great big barrels of fun
Nighttime full of romance
Daytime full of fun

Lookin for the things Id like to see - yeh
If I had my druthers Id be tryin tryin
The only way to be what I cant be
Give me somebody to love me
Make me feel like the only one
Something thats worth doing more

If I had my druthers Id go sailing - yes I would
Catch me campin ou on the open sea
If I had my druthers Id be singin
Just how good this good life feels to me - feels so good
It just needs someone to talk to
Something you cant share
You dont need no reason for livin long
Its already there - yes it is - ooh ooh
It makes me giggle
I cant sit down

Cryin For Nothin
(kevin welch)
I am a full grown fool and I shoulda known better
But I tried and I tried and I could not forget her
I would go back to her time after time
Man I must have been out of my mind
All of that cryin for nothing
All of that tryin for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
Ive got to keep believing
In somethin baby
stead of just tryin for nothing
Cryin for nothin at all
Well we fought for love and we fought for trust
And the whole blessed time it was right there in front of us
We could not reach it and I dont know why
It took so long just to say goodbye
All of that cryin for nothing
All of that tryin for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
Ive got to keep believing
In somethin baby
stead of just tryin for nothing
Cryin for nothin at all
Well her friends all told her, mine told me
But we would not listen, could not see
Me and my pride, her and her dreams
We never ever stood a chance it seems
All of that cryin for nothing
All of that tryin for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
Ive got to keep believing
In somethin baby
stead of just tryin for nothing
Cryin for nothin at all
stead of just tryin for nothing
Cryin for nothin at all

Crouchin’ On The Outside
One two three four five six seven eight hey baby you're a little too late
I'm standin' on the outside lookin' in at you on the inside
Lookin' out at me on the outside lookin' in
Through the window of my madness at a place I never been
And you say you understand just what my trouble's all about
But you're sitting on the inside playing on the win side
While I'm freezing on the outside in the what's-it-all-about side
Lookin' in at you on the inside looking out
One two three four five six seven eight hey Jim let's talk about hate
I'm walkin' on the white side lookin' 'round at you on the brown side
Lookin' back at him on the black side lookin' down
And we're mouthin' words of freedom but we don't make any sound
And we clasp our hands in brotherhood and then go wash our hands
While you're stayin' on the brown side on the go-ahead-and-put-me-down side
While I'm standin' on the white side on the got-me-way-up-tight side
Lookin' back at him on the black side lookin' back
One two three four five six seven eight hey Claude don't bother to wait
You're cruisin' on the gay side lookin' straight at me on the straight side
Lookin' way at you on the gay side lookin' straight
And you're screamin' from the rooftops bout the pleasures that won't wait
And your closet's full of queenly gowns for extra special dates
And you're campin' on the gay side on the c'mon-out-and-play side
While I'm over on the trick side on the got-to-find-a-chick side
Lookin' way at you on the gay side lookin' straight
One two four seven nine eight twelve fifteen nineteen eighteen ninety-nine twenty-four else
[ sax ]
One two three four five six seven eight hey Miss hallucinate
You're boppin' on the hip side laughin' at me on the flip side
Chasin' after you on the hip side losin' my grip
And you're walkin' on a tightrope and you're tryin' not to slip
And you say you found out where it's at and give it all a try
So you're groovin' on the hip side in the come-and-take-a-trip side
I'm movin' on the square side in the show-me-when-and-where side
Chasin' after you on the hip side lookin' high
Lookin' at you on the hip side lookin' out yeah
Lookin' at you on the flip side lookin' back

Trying To Get Away
I been out on the road with my thumb in the air,
Im a long way from home but I just dont care.
The dust from the road makes it dry in my mouth,
When its cold up north, thats when I head south.
cause I been tryin to, tryin to get away, yeah.
Tryin to, tryin to get away, yeah.
I passed through new york just the other day,
The smog was bad but not as bad as l.a.
Sometimes I wonder what the worlds comin to.
Sometimes I wonder what Im gonna do.
Chorus
cause I been tryin to, tryin to get away, yeah.
I been tryin to, tryin to get away, yeah.
I been out on the road with my thumb in the air,
Im a long way from home but I just dont care.
The dust from the road makes it dry in my mouth,
When its cold up north, thats when I head south.
Tryin to, tryin to get away.
Tryin to, tryin to get away.
Tryin to, tryin to get away.
Tryin to, tryin to get away.
Chorus
cause I been tryin to, tryin to get away, yeah, yeah, yeah.
