Got My Feet On The Ground

I wanna lot out of life, but I know my limitations
Guess I want a lot of things and got my inclinations
Got my feet on the ground, and Im standing on my own
I dont need no one
I dont need no one
Ive learned a lot out of life, watchin other folks mistakes
Funny things that they can get for finding out too late
I got my feet on the ground, and Im standing on my own
I dont need no one
I dont need no one
Well I dont need nobody else
All I needs a single ticket
When I travel on my own
Not afraid to be alone
I got my feet upon the ground, and Im standing on my own
When I travel far and wide
And looking for a four leaf clover
Dont mind if I cant find it, got no chip upon my shoulder
Got my feet on the ground, and Im standing on my own
I dont need no one
I dont need no one
Well I dont need nobody else
All I needs a single ticket
When I travel on my own
Not afraid to be alone
I got my feet upon the ground, and Im standing on my own
When I travel far and wide
And looking for a four leaf clover
Dont mind if I cant find it, got no chip upon my shoulder
Got my feet on the ground, and Im standing on my own
I dont need no one
I dont need no one
(repeat)

Heart Like A Wheel

In the days of confusion
Youve turned angry and cold
You say its an ilusion
Theres no fire in your soul
Say you dont love me
Say you dont care
But dont leave me standing here
Your hears like a wheel
Just waiting to roll
Its longing for freedom
To get out on the road
Youre hungry for something
That you may never find
So many reasons
Your love has made you blind
You say you dont love me
You say you dont care
So dont leave me standing here
Dont leave me standing here
You say you dont love me
You say you dont care
Dont leave me
Dont leave me standing here
Life aint been easy
Full of passion and pain
Told me no reason
Why I was to blame
Dont leave me standing
Dont leave me standing
Dont leave me standing
On my own

Dont You Want Me

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up, and turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on youve got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But dont forget its me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too
Dont, dont you want me?
You know I cant believe it when I hear that you wont see me
Dont, dont you want me?
You know I dont believe you when you say that you dont need me
Its much too late to find
You think youve changed your mind
Youd better change it back or we will both be sorry
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew Id find a much better place
Either with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now I think its time I lived my life on my own
I guess its just what I must do
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh
Dont you want me baby? dont you want me - oh

Go Away

Well I think of you when I fantasize
The best I ever had
And I think of you when Im drivin
Myself completely mad
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Walkin on the footbridge
High above the clouds
Listenin to your yesterday
Didnt make a sound
Dazzled by your sweet lips
Touchin on me
Here comes trouble
Cant you see?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Well I think of you when I dramatize
The things we never did
And I think of you when Im flyin
Or when Im feelin just like a kid
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go away? )
(why dont we go away? )

Dont Bring Me Down

Hm hm hm
Hm hm hm
Im on my own, nowhere to roam
I tell you baby, dont want no home
I wander round, feet off the ground
I even go from town to town
I said I think this rock is grand
Say Ill be your man
Dont bring me down, dont bring me down
I met this chick, the other day
And then to me, she said shell stay
I get this pad, just like a cave
And then well have, our living made
And then Ill lead her on the ground
My head is spinning round
Dont bring me down, dont bring me down
Oh
Huh huh huh huh I need a lover cause someone new
And then to her I will be true
Ill buy her furs and pretty things
Ill even buy a wedding ring
But until then Ill settle down
Say Ill be your man
Dont bring me down, dont bring me down
Until then Ill settle down
Say Ill be your man
Dont bring me down, dont bring me down
Dont bring me down

Shakey Ground

Lady luck and the four leaf clover
Wont ease this hurt,i feel all over
My life was one special occasion
Till u leave me damp in the situation
Well well well standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
My car got repossessed this morning
Harder times I havent seen in years
Able to throw me a life preserver
'cos Im about to drown in my own tears
Well well well standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Well well well standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Well well well standing on shakey ground
Shaking, shakey ground
Standing, standing
Standing on shakey ground

Go Zone

Once I need relaxation
Need to get some r n r
(thats rest and recreation)
Dont need no vacation
I dont have to go that far
(Ive got better things to do with my money)
Dont need no private eye
Forget the fbi
cause when the beaver sings
Look out Im closing in
Chorus:
In the go zone, ready to fly
In the go zone, standing up high
In the go zone, down on the block
In the go zone, ready to rock
Down down down in the go zone
Got to have my candy
Got to have my sugar sweet
(I wanna give you a treat)
Giving you directions
You dont have to use your feet
(were on the same street baby)
Youve got to travel south
South of my hungry mouth
And there youll find a friend
Until the bitter end
Chorus
What are you gonna find down there?
There aint no red light district
Get yourself a ticket to the -
Chorus
In the go zone, leave me to die
In the go zone, standing up high
In the go zone, down on the block
Go zone, ready to rock
Down down down in the go zone

Dont Change

Dont change
Im standing here on the ground
The sky above wont fall down
See no evil, in all direction
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark for too long
Dont change for you
Dont change a thing
For me

It had been gone for too long
Hear no evil, in all directions
Execution of bitterness
Message received loud and clear
Dont change for you
Dont change a thing
For me
Dont change for you
Dont change a thing

The sky above wont fall down
See no evil, in all directions

Dont change a thing

You Need A Mess Of Help To Stand Alone

I need a breeze blowing softly
To keep my wind vane from standing
I need a whole lot of sunshine
To keep my sundial advancing
I need some soil fore my grass will grow
I need some spark to make my candle glow
Relief I cried
Aint no shuck n jive
I need a mess of help to stand alone
I need a spark by a fire
To stop the cold of my winter
I need a burst of your raindrops
To keep a flow in my river
I need a call for my phone will ring
I need your song for my voice will sing
Please realize
Im not half alive
Without a mess of help to stand alone

To heat my frostbitten sorrow
I need your hand on my shoulder
To lead todays to tomorrows
I need your strength to lock me to the track
I need your trust to bust the things I lack
Belief I cried
Aint no shuck n jive
I need a mess of help to stand alone

Well I dont wanna be president
Superman or clark kent
I dont wanna walk round in their shoes
cause I dont know whos side Im on
I dont know my right from wrong
I dont know where Im going to
I dont know about you
Chorus:
Ill be the rain falling on your fire escape
And I may not be the man you want me to
I can be myself, how bout you?
I dont wanna make you mad
I dont wanna meet your dad
I dont wanna be your dream come true

I dont know my sky from ground

Standing On Higher Ground

(lead vocal - geoff barradale)
I know the truth
But I cant say
And I have to turn my head
And look the other way
Im not afraid
And I wont lie
As long as I see no wrong
I wont need to testify
I see the world
And Im looking from a high place
Way above it all
Standing on higher ground
I breathe the air
While theyre running in a rat race
Way above it all
Standing on higher ground
I feel the blow
But I dont speak
And I have to close my eyes
Pretending Im asleep
Well I see the tears
But I dont cry
As long as I do no wrong
I dont need an alibi
I see the world
And Im looking from a high place
Way above it all
Standing on higher ground
I breathe the air
While theyre running in a rat race
Way above it all
Standing on higher ground

Sleep To Dream

I tell you how I feel, but you dont care.
I say tell me the truth, but you dont dare.
You say love is a hell you cannot bare.
And I say gimme mine back and then go there - for all I care.
I got my feet on the ground and I dont go to sleep to dream.
You got your head in the clouds and youre not at all what you seem.
This mind, this body, and this voice cannot be stifled by your deviant ways.
So dont forget what I told you, dont come around, I got my own hell to raise.
I have never been insulted in all my life.
I could swallow the seas to wash down all this pride.
First you run like a fool just to be at my side.
And now you run like a fool, but you just run to hide, and I cant abide.
I got my feet on the ground and I dont go to sleep to dream.
You got this head in the clouds and youre not at all what you seem.
This mind, this body, and this voice cannot be stifled by your deviant ways.
So dont forget what I told you, dont come around, I got my own hell to raise.
Dont make it a big deal, dont be so sensitive.
Were not playing a game anymore, you dont have to be so defensive.
Dont you plead me your case, dont bother to explain.
Dont even show me your face, cuz its a crying shame.
Just go back to the rock from under which you came.
Take the sorrow you gave and all the stakes you claim -
And dont forget the blame.
I got my feet on the ground and I dont go to sleep to dream.
You got this head in the clouds and youre not at all what you seem.
This mind, this body, and this voice cannot be stifled by your deviant ways.
So dont forget what I told you, dont come around, I got my own hell to raise.

Not You Again

Oh, no, not you again
Please dont tell me
Youre here to stay
See I dont want to hear
Go away, go away
I like piano
I like to tv
Yeah I like my style, ya know, and I like to dream
I like color of the rainbow, they like to please me
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Ive told you before and Ill tell you again, and again, and again
Cant you get it thru your head
Youre not my friend
And Ive tried to be nice but now Im not going to lie
So I suggest you leave before I make you cry, bye
I like to be sulky
I like being vile
I like to make you angry, I like it all the while
I like to know that youre hated, it makes me smile
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Oh, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
Why, why, why, why me?
Why, why, why, why me?

So I must find everyone including me too

Dire Wolf

In the timbers to fennario, the wolves are running round,
The winter was so hard and cold, froze ten feet neath the ground.
Dont murder me, I beg of you, dont murder me. please, dont murder me.
I sat down to my supper, twas a bottle of red whisky,
I said my prayers and went to bed, thats the last they saw of me.
Dont murder me, I beg of you, dont murder me. please, dont murder me.
When I awoke, the dire wolf, six hundred pounds of sin,
Was grinning at my window, all I said was come on in.
Dont murder me, I beg of you, dont murder me. please, dont murder me.
The wolf came in, I got my cards, we sat down for a game.
I cut my deck to the queen of spades, but the cards were all the same.
Dont murder me, I beg of you, dont murder me. please, dont murder me.
In the backwash of fennario, the black and bloody mire,
The dire wolf collects his dues, while the boys sing round the fire.
Dont murder me, I beg of you, dont murder me. please, dont murder me.
No, no, no dont murder me. I beg of you,
Dont murder me. please, dont murder me.

Feet Dont Fail Me Now

Cant you see, she dont want you around no more
Cant you see, that her hands pointing at the door
Feet dont fail me now
How could anyone stay
Anyone could see its time to go away
Time to take a powder
Open up your eyes
But it feels like my legs have been paralyzed
Feet dont fail me now
Begging please dont make a fool of me
Feet dont fail me now
Please dont keep me where I should not be
Feet dont fail me now
Stop pretending that youve gone to sleep
Feet dont fail me now
Begging please dont make a fool of me
See your things piled in the hall
Turn around, theres a new picture on the wall
Feet dont fail me now
Were the last ones to know
Anyone could see its time for us to go
Time to hit the highway
Nothing left to do
But it feels like my shoes have been crazy glued

Song For The Life

I dont drink as much as I used to
Lately it just aint my style
And the hard times dont hurt like they used to
They pass quicker like when is a child
Somehow Ive learned to listen
For a sound like the sun goin down
In the magic the morning is bringing
It keeps my feet on the ground
Dont the midsummer days sit so heavy
But dont they flow like a breeze through your mind
And nothin occurs in a hurry
To make up for someones lost time
Somehow Ive learned to listen
For a sound like the sun goin down
In the magic the morning is bringing
It keeps my feet on the ground
Somehow Ive learned to listen
For a sound like the breeze dyin down
In the magic the morning is bringing
It keeps my feet on the ground

I Dont Want Your Money

I dont want your money
It dont mean a thing
I dont need no fancy clothes
Or a diamond ring
I dont have to ride in style
In your limousine
I dont want no trouble
Tax or uncle sam
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man
I dont need your prestige
cause I got my pride
I dont want your social standing
Id rather stand outside
I dont have no time to worry
bout your greedy jive
I dont want your money
I dont like that game
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man

Lately, it just aint my style
And the hard times dont hurt like they ought to
They pass quicker, like when I was a child
And somehow Ive learned how to listen
For a sound like the sun going down
In the magic the morning is bringing
Theres a song for the life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground
And the midsummer days sit so heavy
But dont they flow like the breeze through your mind
When nothing appears in a hurry
To make up for someones lost time
And somehow Ive learned how to listen

In the magic the morning is bringing
Theres a song for the life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground
And somehow Ive learned how to listen

Theres a song for the friend I have found
She keeps my feet on the ground

Soon As I Get Home/home

(charlie smalls)
Miss one?
Munchkins?
Theres a feeling here inside
That I cannot hide
And I know Ive tried
But its turning me around
Im not sure that Im aware
If Im up or down
Or here or there
I need both feet on the ground
Maybe Im just going crazy
Let myself get uptight
Im acting just like a baby
But Im gonna be
Im gonna be alright
Soon as I get home
Soon as I get home
Soon as I get home
In a different place
In a different time
Different people around me
I would like to know of that different world
And how different they find me
And just whats a wiz
Is he big, will he scare me?
If I ask to leave
Will the wiz even hear me?
How will I know then
If Ill ever get home again?
Here I am alone
Though it feels the same
I dont know where Im going
Im here on my own
And its not a game
And a strange wind is blowing
Im so amazed
At the things that I see here
Dont want to be afraid
I just dont want to be afraid
I just dont want to be here
In my mind this is clear
What am I doing here?
I wish I was home
I wish
I wish
I wish

Dont Ya Say It

Things you said to me
Sentimentally
Are always on my mind.
Seems you haunted me
But you set me free
Long before you gave me time to escape.
The next time
Ill be on my way
cause its time, its true
Im turning my back on you.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me
You dont need me,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
You threw love at me
Indispensably,
But you never could give it away.
And it seems to me
That youd never be,
Thats why Ill never stay with you.
You cant hold me down
cause its my life too,
So this time its true,
Im turning my back on you
.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me,
You dont need me,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
