Topher's Big Day

She made me look
Just like a young man should
The way she made me feel
She made me feel all right

I saw her smile
Said could we dance for a while
She turned her head and frowned
She said some other time

She said no no no no
She said no no no no
She said no no no no
She said no no no no

I saw you around
With some other guy
But my friend you were there
You picked me up for a ride

She made me look
Just like a young man should
The way she made me feel
She made me feel all right

She said oh oh oh oh
She said oh oh oh oh
She said oh oh oh oh
She said oh oh oh oh

She said oh oh oh oh
She said oh oh oh oh

Leaving Town

Edge of town
The going 'rounds been weighing on my mind
Puttin' me down
You got low down ways and I've been too kind

Say it, I'm down but I'm trying to get loose
Get used to it, I'm a jack-knifed renegade caboose

Don't call my name if you please
It sounds as if Hell's calling me
I just can't take it no more
I've got to close all my doors

Sun machine
It tanned your hide and now you're black and blue
Sex and greed
Have caused your men to close their books on you

Make it, roll off of your bed of blues
Smoke it, free sunshine is worth more than you

Don't call my name if you please
It sounds as if hell's calling me
I just can't take it no more
And I'm wound up tight
Can't even sleep at night

Leaving town
Leaving town

Man's Lament

What's in the sky
Riding low on the wind
Taking my time
Watching the clouds spin

As time passes me by again

You know that I want you
You know that I need you
You know that I love you
You know that I want you
You know that I need you
You know that I love you

I should be slaving
White washing to the board
Instead I'm here waiting
I think of you more and more

As time passes me by again

You know that I want you
You know that I need you
You know that I love you
You know that I want you
You know that I need you
You know that I love you

You know that I want you
You know that I need you
You know that I love you
You know that I want you
You know that I need you
You know that I love you

Streetwalker (Topher's Big Day Pt. II)

Searching my mind for what I left behind
Though I don't know what I might find
News comes in of all the women
Who I've never been within

How far will we go how high will we fly
How far will we go how high will we fly
How far will we go how high will we fly
How far will we go how high will we fly

You are my dearest and we have some spirits
Now there's no reason to fear it
You're gonna shake and the clifftops will quake
What I give I hope you can take

How far will we go how high will we fly
How far will we go how high will we fly
How far will we go how high will we fly
How far will we go how high will we fly

The Fowl Suite Part I:
The Cuckoo's Clock


A bird with feathers of gray
He lost his mind today

What did you do with those girls
What did you do

The maggots came and chose to claim his eyes
They racked his brain were born again as flies

Today his spring turned to fall
Sterilized needles and white walls

What did you do with those girls
What did you do

The maggots came and chose to claim his eyes
They racked his brain were born again as flies
The maggots came and chose to claim his eyes
They racked his brain were born again as flies

Where the canyons sing is where I'll spend my days
Where the canyons sing is where I'll spend my days
Where the canyons sing is where I'll spend my days
Where the canyons sing is where I'll spend my days


The Fowl Suite Part II:
The Hawk

Better not look up
Or get shook up
The Hawk
He's coming for you

Treading softly
Can't shake him off me
The Hawk
He's coming for you

Trying to stay alive
In the gaze of hawk eyes

Like a twister on a train that's rollin'
You can't stop me when I get it goin'
The Hawk comes for the hare in the morning'
But he don't get nothing from me
But he don't get nothing from me

The midnight strangler
The Man in anger
The Hawk
He's coming for you
