If I could go back in time, knowing everything I didn't know then
Maybe I could change my mind and take it easier on me and my friends
Maybe it sounds kind of strange, but I ain't never gonna change
I'd do it wrong all over again
Mistakes I've made a few, what's the use when you're born too loose
Too loose for the straight and narrow but you know it's no excuse
Maybe it sounds kinda strange...
Fate is fickle, and I'm a lucky guy, so I don't think that I'd try
Change the past and who knows what you're doing
So I'm driving full speed heading straight down the road to ruin
I'm wicked stubborn always learn the hard way
Maybe that's why I'm still here, and I'm here to stay
Maybe it sounds kinda strange...

The Real You

I don't want to be your fakebook friend
I just want the real you back again
Oh Lord I'm tired of just pretend
I just want the real you
I see your face all the time cuz it comes up in my feed
But that don't give me what I want or what I need
It's just a fantasy I know it won't come true
Nothing's perfect in this world 'cept what's in the public view
Behind a two-way smokescreen, don't peek behind that curtain
Nothing is for sure that's the one thing that's for certain
People post notes above the noise to try to be heard
Messages in bottles floating on a sea of words, so absurd

Favorite Things

I'm a friend of friends that's the truth solitary
I've got my favorite things for company
All you true believers brothers sisters complicitly
I'm thinking about thinking of you and me
We all get something from someone somewhere along the way
Favorite things stay with us even when they move away
Colored vinyl records, seven inch forty-fives
Ancient television, old man bars and seedy dives
Long gone brands and local bands that somehow just survive
Your favorite things will never go away...
Cuz my mind spins round in circles like the records we used to play
Your favorite things will never
Your favorite things will never go away

Eyes Wide Open

I don't know why but I can't say goodbye
It feels like I'm holding my breath
I can't believe that my hearts on my sleeve
I've taken my leave of sense
Eyes wide open, the writings on the wall
Eyes wide open, come on come on open your eyes to me
Don't understand bout your master plan
I'm taking the easy way out
All I know is I love you so
Can't see a shadow of doubt
Eyes wide open, the writings on the wall
Eyes wide open, come on come on open your eyes to me
I don't know why you just can't see what I can see
To let it go and just believe, instantly
Eyes wide open, the writings on the wall
Eyes wide open, can't see a shadow of doubt at all
Eyes wide open, I just can't see it all
Eyes wide open
come on come on open your eyes to me

Feel the Spring Sun

It's been a long hard wintertime but I think I feel a light is shining
Down on me to warm this heart of mine
I can feel that the life is coming back
Everything feels like its back on track
You and me are gonna be alright that's a fact Jack
I can feel the spring sun
I know life has begun
If you feel it in your heart you know its time to start again
I think its time to begin again
Get drunk run round and pull shenanigans
This town's been this way since I don't know when
I know the winter wasn't a whole lot of fun
But I say the good times just begun

Caveman

Caveman you're some kind of superman
You ride a dinosaur like Genghis Khan
And wear a rockin' pair of Ray-Bans
Caveman you laugh and survey the wasteland
Post-apocalyptic you became an island isolated from the mainland
All hail the caveman
Eats what he kills, and he eats his fill
Nothing gets under his ice age chill
All around the nations all the complications
World destruction or just dull stagnation
Caveman it's getting harder to maintain an attitude like a made man
While you're playing in the town's most rockin' band
DEVO's right we've all been devolved
But DAVO knows the problem's been solved
All around the nations...

LYRICS:
I try, to figure why
but it always keeps me mystified
What is that voodoo on the wire
Just like a tribe got us dancing round the fire
It's not a problem if you require proof
Three chords a backbeat and you can hear the proof
If that's the part you'll play if that's in fact the price you'll pay
A little heart and soul, it's good enough for rock 'n' roll
Gabba gabba hey hey hey
that shaky feeling inside can't be faked
Like climbing up too high and falling
in a wide open fracas, raging free for all
It's not a problem if you require proof
Three chords a backbeat and you can hear the proof
If that's the part you'll play if that's in fact the price you'll pay
A little heart and soul, it's good enough for rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll will never lie
stab you in the back and leave you there to die
A blur of chrome a flash of light
There's a streetwalking cheetah in the house tonight
It's not a problem if you require proof
Three chords a backbeat and you can hear the proof
If that's the part you'll play if that's in fact the price you'll pay
Maybe fate will find a way
Rock 'n' roll won't fade away
A little heart and soul, it's good enough for rock 'n' roll
