| In the Meantime... |
| One of my life goals is to drive through the Arizona desert... With the top down and the wind in my hair, we drive... Twenty minutes pass by, and not one car appears on the horizon... not one indication of another being's presence. The deep blue sky and flat landscape fill the windshield, and dirt and sky is all we can see for miles around us. The music plays and surrounds us as the earth surrounds us. The four of us... The sun, the sky, the wind, the sound, the motion and the space are one in being, belonging to this moment. Only this moment. We are silent... awestruck and at a loss for words... and the music plays... |

| All of a sudden the spell is broken and we belong to ourselves again. The brief enlightenment is no more and shall never be spoken of... never acknowledged. For it belongs only in the moment. We look at each other and laugh, pretending nothing has happened even though we are not the same people we were when we started our journey. The music still plays, but the solemnity has left us and we begin to sing. We sing as a tribute to all that we have discovered... as a tribute to ourselves... And we sing... |

| The Cure Mint Car The sun is up I�m so happy I could scream! And there's nowhere else in the world I�d rather be Than here with you It's perfect It's all I ever wanted I almost can't believe that it's for real I really don't think it gets any better than this Vanilla smile and a gorgeous strawberry kiss! Birds sing we swing Clouds drift by and everything is like a dream It's everything I wished Never guessed it got this good Wondered if it ever would Really didn't think it could Do it again? I know we should! The sun is up I�m so fizzy I could burst! You went through and me headfirst Into this is perfect It's all I ever wanted It feels so big it almost hurts! chorus Say it will always be like this The two of us together It will always be like this Forever and ever and ever... chorus |
| Spacehog In the Meantime And in the end we shall achieve in time The thing they call divine When all the stars will smile for me When all is well and well is all for all And forever after Maybe in the meantime wait and see We love the all the all of you Our lands are green and skies are blue When all in all we're just like you We love the all of you And when I cry for me I cry for you With tears of holy joy And did I ever say I'd never play Or fly toward the sun Maybe in the meantime, something's gone chorus Well that sounds fine so I'll see you sunshine Give my love to the future of the humankind Okay, okay, it's not okay. While it's on my mind there's a girl that fits the crime For a future love dream that I'm still to find But in the meantime. chorus |
| Better Than Ezra King of New Orleans There's an angel on the stairs As if you'd even care When the lights go up, and the sun has nearly gone down. Did you see him on the street? Did you pass him at your feet? Did you think aloud,"how dare they even look me in the eye'? And he loves the girls. And he loves the boys. Gonna make twenty dollars 'fore the weekends over. So set him up, Let him fall. Turn him over in your hands. God save the King of New Orleans. Got a ticket to a show. Gonna see him take a blow. When the drunk one said, "Cat Stevens was the greatest singer!" |
| The Refreshments Banditos Just how far down do you want to go We can talk it out over a cup of joe And you can look deep in my eyes Like I was a super-model Uh huh It's just you and me baby No one else we can trust We'll say nuthin to no one No how or we'll bust Never crack a smile or flinch or cry For nobody Uh huh So give your ID card to the border guard Your alias says you're Captain Jean Luc Picard Of the United Federation of Planets Cause they won't speak english any ways Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people So meet me at the mission at midnight We'll divvy up there Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people So I got the pistol So I get the Pesos That seems fair We'll put the sugar in the tank of the sheriff's car We'll slash the deputy's tires And they won't get very far When they finally get the word that there's been a hold-up Uhuh chorus That seems fair |
| And did you kick him in the head? Did you see the blood run down? Did you laugh at all when the people walked right by and said aloud, "You gutter punks are all the same. "Gonna make twenty dollars 'fore the weekends over."? chorus Radio in my head. Radio in that car. Going down again, he's going down again.... Anyway you look, anyway you talk it over. It's easier to let it slip out of your mind. But it rips your heart out. Then it kicks your head in. Just give him one more chance, try to see the beauty in his world. All the way in on my hands, In on my feet and shoulders. Gonna to make twenty dollars 'fore the weekends over. chorus God save the King of New Orleans. |
