Daytime TV 02:53
Daytime TV Kate's got the latitude While she's faking love She burns a church or two Yeah, Feels like Monday but Sunday's for family feuds and Daytime TV I try to take it straight Like a gentleman, I know how to eat my plate. And it feels like dying A slow death on the Estate. it pours down on me on me on me on me Baby's Brooklyn Hands are soft Down and out In the loft It turns me on like Daytime TV The closet is full of moths Uncle Deadbeat's suits Grandpa don't cut me off We're all parasites Kate's in her finery making Daytime TV with me with me with me Daytime TV

Snow in July 03:41
SNOW IN JULY Life is a show girl Las Vegas sun in the eye Big stack of bills And snow in July Getting weird in the free world Dancing for business man Shanghai to New Amsterdam Riding clouds up high Wait a minute Whats the story All caught up in Ceasar's glory, Golden towers reaching straight up to the sky but I'm dreaming of Snow in July, I can't say why. Slow twist of the radio Red lips round a cigarette A line round the interstate Splitting the sky Heaven's full of broken hearts Hell's full of diplomats When life's all in photographs You might as well try Wait a minute Whats the story All caught up in Nature's glory, Golden desert reaching straight out to the sky but I'm dreaming of Snow in July, I can't say why.

Fear City 04:17
FEAR CITY Living in the shadows Anyone could Lose their senses Head out on the waves, take their chances, chase the signs. Here comes the cowboys Shiny shields for their protection Reflecting the architecture of modern times Oh, fear city You think you got me good Oh, fear city You think you got me running You think you got me running Working the night shift Building all tomorrow's fences feel the wind as it dances cross power lines Oh, fear city You think you got me good Oh, fear city You think you got me running You think you got me running

Matchless 03:38
Matchless When you're matchless and a fascist burned down your corner store. Clear the ashes, from your rose sunglasses walk down to my door. turn off your tv station you know its getting down to the wire I got the spark, you got the spark punch the gas, you and I make the fire fire you and I make the burning fire when you're crashing on your mattress gotta get up off the floor smoke is rising you should be out here smiling we can do whats never been done before turn off your tv station you know we just dont have the time I got the spark, you got the spark punch the gas, you and I make the fire fire you and I make the burning fire

BIG WINNER Go sign the contract stand on your neighbor's back a view of the sunset, behind the palms. Put your flag in the dirt. Get your name on your shirt. Pull your punches, sing your songs. You could be the chosen one The golden ray Chewing on a big steak dinner. We are standing by You got an Eagle eye A slick beginner . We need a winner. A big winner. A winner. We need a winner. A big winner. A winner. Hire a private plane Burst bubbles in champagne Running the game, feeling strong. Viewers standing by. With gold in their eyes. Got em rolled, puttin em on. You could be only one. The chosen way, Or 10 pounds thinner. We need a winner. A big winner. A winner We need a winner. A big winner. A winner

WALKING IN LIGHT Light me up god knows its sink or swim Where you from ? Into the blue again. Its dark enough sometimes you've got to crawl its better than your back to the wall Show me, love a bed I can dream in its good enough our ship hasn't come but its all right our ship hasn't come but its all right we'll be Walking in light On the run To the horizon Take a breath Look in my eyes then Sure enough, Tomorrow it will be alright. the day will come we'll be alright the day will come we'll be alright we'll be Walking in light.

A MAN OF NO CONSEQUENCE A shirt made in paradise Shoes of fine leather Here comes a man Of no consequence Come to bring us to gather From the bus stop's dirty lounge The timekeeper's window Here comes a man of no consquence singing all his hymnal it threw you, through you blew you away a cold fire at the end of the day
