Automatic Blues

Well, some things aren't built for fixing Make more sense to throw away The touch of something human What I really crave Oh, just give me one thing I can sink my heart into Not another measure Of these automatic blues, come on, come on Well, the preacher preached the sermon Sinners bow their heads Sometimes I feel so alive I wish I was dead You might be on your back somewhere, baby Too beaten up in your pew Would Sunday lift the curtain On the automatic blues? Come on Hey, turn me on, turn me off Turn me out, turn me on I said, turn me off, turn me on Turn me out, turn me on I feel like a pair of sneakers In a washing machine I'm bouncing off the walls Trapped in the heap Goddamn, thermostat's gone crazy I woke up with the flu Wrapped up in a blanket With the automatic blues, come on Hey, come on Get a hold on me Get a hold on me I want somebody to tell me Where can my baby be

Age Of Miracles

The night is gonna crush the day Once it was the other way We hope that you enjoy your stay In the age of miracles There's plenty work for everyone Where two and two add up to one Let's sing this song in unison In the age of miracles Hey, OK, alright In the age of miracles Gonna eat and drink our fill Lose that baby fat for real No secrets left to conceal In the age of miracles Sometimes we run short of space So careful what you throw away This is where the children play In the age of miracles Hey, OK, alright In the age of miracles Oh mama hold on I think I feel something I've waited too long to feel nothing Oh no Honey don't get so upset Anything you want, I can get We've barely gotten started yet In the age of miracles Don't go now, there's more to see All lost time will be retrieved I know it's true, it's on TV In the age of miracles Hey, OK, alright In the age of miracles

Just To See You Smile

I walked twenty blocks to your favorite bakery To pick you up a little treat I know you're not an early riser After a long night on your feet And this pretty flower's called a "Saint Paulina" It's grown in the African wild Ah, baby just to see you smile Baby just to see you smile We could have ourselves a Sunday picnic Spread a blanket on the grass I've got a brick of firecrackers Honey, let's see how long these babies last Oh, there ought to be a law against this Tonight I'd put myself on trial Oh, baby just to see you smile Baby just to see you smile Baby just to see you smile I know you got it in you Oh, what I wouldn't give you Oh, baby You've got the gift that keeps on giving So baby, why you wanna keep it hid? I've done so many things that I'm not proud of Only you can make me feel like my old self again And if the moon's the only light left shining I'd walk a thousand miles Oh, baby just to see you smile Baby just to see you smile Baby just to see you smile You know I've got to have it Honey, you could stop the traffic

Baby, pin a rose on me It's a heavy load, it's a trail of tears And it's a dead end line that drops you here And it tears me up to see you brought back to him When you don't want to have it but I long to give it It's a heavy load, it's a trail of tears You saw a light, I saw a freight train coming I tried to tell you he was no damn good You heard bells, I heard the hammer falling He ran you down like I said he would Baby, pin a rose on me Baby, pin a rose on me Baby, pin a rose on me
