A Million Little Shakes

A million little shakes
a million little signs
that these awkward nights
would lead to permanent goodbyes
neon lights in nonsensical lines
Everything's degrading all the time
My friend call me back
when I'm in better shape to react
and we'll laugh again, sing it makes no difference
Rick Danko's heartbreak lament
All my colors gone and we're a three day driver from the nearest ocean
I'd burn this skin to complete oblivion, soaking up all the rays I can
My friend call me back
when I'm in better shape to react
and we'll laugh again, sing alone to The Weight
the one song I know you wont forget
I felt alive on the front seat of a tandem bike
with air in my lungs and a pocket full of Dentyne Ice
a tall beer in my hand for a long night ride, just enough to drink along the way
My friend call me back
when I'm in better shape to react
and we'll laugh again, sing Rag Mama Rag
tip our drinks to our heroes in The Band

Mulberry Wine

Open the curtains squint at the sun
make soup from the bones
handwritten recipe torn in a rush
the paper's yellowed
We're out of the mulberry wine
here's to the new year
shouting out from an overgrown field
here's hoping they'll hear
I've lived in places I've tried to forget, the highs and the lows
The beautiful losers that liter this places
grass grows under their toes
We're out of the mulberry wine
here's to the new year
shouting out from an overgrown field
here's hoping they'll hear
Woke up again to a belted kingfisher's call, such beautiful notes
finally found you up in that tree, I'll follow you home
We're out of the mulberry wine
here's to the new year
shouting out from an overgrown field
here's hoping they'll hear

I'll admit 9 times out of 10 you're right
you're not so lucky I guess that this is one of those times
wandered out for a walk somehow got lost
near where they're building that new nightclub
I'll never go there but I'm glad that it's around
it means music still matters it means people are still turning their thoughts into sound
The hesitation in your voice really says it all
I'm trying and I'm trying and I fell that you're not trying at all
if you could choose your memories I'd surely send this one off
and whistle past the graveyard on the way to the liquor store
I always go there and I'm glad that it's around
It means taste still matters it means that
heaven exists in a bag of coffee grounds

That Old Irish Setter

That old Irish Setter she lays upon my shore
through the wind and the weather she lays upon my shore
that old Irish Setter she lays upon my shore
and when it's time for supper she comes running towards the door
That old Irish Setter she's been through the years
Prosperity and struggles, laughter and the tears
That old Irish Setter she's been through the years
and when she claims her great reward we'll salute her with our beers
That old Irish Setter there's never been one more true
A constant companion, loyal through and through
That old Irish Setter there's never been one more true
Through storms that shook the heavens and skies of cloudless blue
