Life it is not what it seems Make and build and break your dreams Don’t forget about the people that you left behind It’s not as hard as it might seem Count the clouds floating in the sky Tell me what you think that one looks like You don’t know what I’m feeling Paint a picture on the ceiling Build your house up on the mountain Just leave the light on for me Don’t forget about the people that you left behind It’s not as hard as it might seem Count the clouds floating in the sky Tell me what you think that one looks like You don’t know what I’m feeling Paint a picture on the ceiling Build your house up on the mountain Just leave the light on for me Just leave the light on for me Just leave the light on for me Just leave the light on for me

Dontcha Know 05:18
He came from far away From the mountains above Dontcha know People came from miles around Just to watch the show Dontcha know I just want you to know right now That I don’t need you anyhow We tried to make him come down And go all the way Dontcha know You can stick it where the sun don’t shine You people all the same Dontcha know I just want you to know right now That I don’t need you anyhow He drove it to the end of the road But they followed in droves Dontcha know Couldn’t take it for another day Or so the story goes I just want you to know right now That I don’t need you anyhow I just want you to know right now That I don’t need you anyhow

I'm not the kind to complain That I never had a girl to love. Many a fine girl I tried hard to know,But I think I never tried enough. Sitting one day by myself,And I'm thinking, "What could be wrong?" When this funny little Hedgehog comes running up to me, And it starts up to sing me this song. Oh, you know all the words, and you sung all the notes, But you never quite learned the song, she sang. I can tell by the sadness in your eyes, That you never quite learned the song. Every day when the sun go down,And the evening is so very still, Many a fine girl I've held in my arms,And I hope there's many more that I will, But just when everything is going fine,And absolutely nothing is wrong, This funny little Hedgehog's always around And every time he wants to sing me this song. CH One day when the moon was full I thought I might settle down, Found myself a pretty little girl,And I stopped all my running around; But just when the preacher come along,And he's just gonna pop on the ring, This funny little Hedgehog comesRunning down the aisle, And I don't have to tell you what he did sing. CH I'm not the kind to complainThat I never had a girl to love; Many fine girls I've tried hard to know,But I think I never tried enough. But now I'll be looking all my days,And it isn't just me I got to please, There's this funny little Hedgehog Who's always around, And the only words he ever sings to me are these. CH

Pieces 05:58
Peace is understanding, compassion, family Peace is sleeping, metaphysical, friendly Priority number one Not your mom’s anymore What peace was peace is Pieces I’m falling to pieces Something to talk about Don’t forget what we did Pieces of pizza Gotta love all the kids Now batting number one Not your mom’s anymore What peace was peace is Pieces I’m falling to pieces

Ode to the road can’t be borrowed or sold We couldn’t write this stuff even if we tried But that’s ok you don’t have to Because we’re coming round again And that’s why we wrote this ode to the road Disco balls and overalls Doors at eight and its an empty hall Ben and Clay are out there throwing the squidge Jer can’t find the catering line Joe says we’re never gonna check on time The opening band’s stuck in traffic on the bridge Chauncey likes to tell me that it’s not a real show But I see Kidd and Betty down in the front row The band won’t play ‘cuz the fridge is out of beer The green room’s ‘bout a couple blocks away Gar’s already there but he says there’s no way But hey man my banjo sounds great in here Chorus Austin got lost in Las Vegas again But you don’t have to gamble when you’re in a band You’re already winning if you’re on the road with friends Boss man says I’n not paying you to tune You’ll leave here with a nickel if you don’t play soon So we put in a show that he hoped would never end The show is done and it’s day off eve We got til four til the bus is gonna leave There’s an old place where the locals hang around Order what you want the labels picking up the tab We can get it on in the back of the cab That boys got a woman in every town Chorus We love it at the Fillmore and the Music Hall The Earl in Atlanta and the Turf in St. Paul The Exit The Basement The Roman Gott play em all The Capitol stage where Jerry played The Troubadour where dreams are made Let’s get on the road real soon so we can play for you all Chorus
