Cross to bear
You're off balance and you're falling over
but at least you've got a shoulder to cry on
So make damn sure
that this ain't the hill you die on
Sugar, you've still got a shoulder to cry on
To cry on
A life here is isolated
it's sacrosanct
even the turbulence is worthy of your thanks
So mimic a panting dog, babe
and roll down your window
Reject your gods of death
stick out your neck
unfurl those fangs
For the paps to snap
and for your lover to revere
He can't keep his eyes on the road
He can't keep his hands on the wheel
Cross to bear
Cross to bear
Cross to bear
You're off balance and you're falling over
but at least you've got a shoulder to cry on
So make damn sure
that this ain't the hill you die on
Sugar, you've still got a shoulder to cry on
To cry on
The discombobulated mind
behind sad eyes
will ogle greener grasses elsewhere always and forever
Horny for hot air
are you stupid or something?
Take the bull in the china shop by the horns
and play it by ear
It's something for your guardian angel to fear
It's something for the voices in your head to cheer
It's something for your lover to revere
A feeling for your old soul to hold dear
A lighter cross to bear
A lighter cross to bear
It's something for your father's ghost to fear
It's something for the passerbys to cheer
It's something for your lover to revere
A feeling for your old soul to hold dear
It's something for your guardian angel to fear
It's something for the voices in your head to cheer
It's something for your lover to revere
A feeling for your old soul to hold dear
A lighter cross to bear
A lighter cross to bear

Penniless

Baby, I'm back
I'm penniless
I'm on my ass
I'm sinking fast
I lost my mind again
It floated down the river and around the bend
Cut me some slack
I did you wrong
That's in the past
I'm back on track
I've cleaned up my act
I put my pedal to the metal down a cul de sac
Fooling myself
Made myself at home
Put the jester on the throne
So I trained my brain to reboot
to fall upwards
and sometimes sideways
to a nice place
Fooling myself
Led myself astray
Walked the wrong way for a day
So I trained my brain to reboot
to fall upwards
and sometimes sideways
to a nice place
Baby, I'm back
I'm penniless
I'm on my ass
I'm sinking fast
I lost my mind again
It floated down the river and around the bend
Cut me some slack
I did you wrong
That's in the past
I'm back on track
I've cleaned up my act
I put my pedal to the metal down a cul de sac

The Stone in the Shoe

Age fully
age gracefully
age patiently
or don't age at all
Wild roots will uproot others
keep to your side
or you'll kill us all
You remind me of a proud tree
that the man marked and had cut down to size
Thrown in fires to heat the homes of all his wives
to keep hope alive
Thorn in the side
Pied pipers
Mosquitoes
The stone in the shoe on the foot in the door to heaven
The shortest straw
You got sick in the sink at the final call
The stone in the shoe on the foot in the door to heaven
Stay grounded
shoot from the hip
sharpen your wit
pop stars like pimples
Act measured
and unmeasured
Act brazenly
don't tarnish my name
I've been thinking of an old wives tale
that the man spread round to keep young minds in jail
Don't restrict yourself the world will do that on its own
Step into the fold
Thorn in the side
Pied pipers
Mosquitoes
The stone in the shoe on the foot in the door to heaven
The shortest straw
You got sick in the sink at the final call
The stone in the shoe on the foot in the door to heaven
Don't restrict yourself the world will do that on its own
Step into the fold
