Welcome to population: You
I hope you brought a lot of cigarettes
I hope you brought a lot of good books to read
I hope you get a lot of help
I hope you get a handle on yourself
Welcome to the mountains and the big trees
A land of pink clouds and chickadees
Donʼt forget how your time was spent
Now the time you spend
You pay for it
Living like a dog is all you wanted
Sleepyhead
Basking in the sun
Learn to love it or get over it
I can feel you tap-tapping over my head
Youʼre a lonely storm
You should do no harm
I will place a tin roof under you
This is what you get
Living like a dog is all you wanted
Sleepyhead
Basking in the sun
Learn to love it or get over it
Youʼre home

I Got A Heart
04:27

I got a heart
It was built to beat
I got a lung
It was built for to breathe
I got a mind
It was built to think
Putting it all together
Keeping me safe
So why do I feel so strange
Why am I so afraid
That all that I am used to
Will suddenly stop
What If the sun forgets to shine
Dark all day and I donʼt mind
Iʼm not gonna cry at all
What If my heart forgets to beat
What if my lung forgets to breathe
Iʼm not gonna die at all
Cause Iʼm so happy
But why am I
Why am I at all

Here She Comes

Here she comes again
Here she comes
A feeling that understand
I see her smile at me
I see her smile
A feeling that I understand
Sheʼs got a secret
But it ainʼt hidden
Its in her eyes and all around her
Welcome home
She keeps her own bed
She wears her own clothes
She takes her own steps
She speaks her own voice
Baby what you have
I gotta get me some of that
Turn the TV off
Forget your phone
Can you sit with the feeling
Of being alone
Give it a try
Close your eyes and see
Youʼre doing it fine
Youʼre young and alive
You got the time to spare
Go figure it out
Write me a letter
From wherever you go when you get there
You got the wide eyes
You got a young heart
You got the vision
You got yourself free and clean
Donʼt sit and talk about it
This is your one chance to make life
Everything you want it to be

The winterʼs coming and my fingers are cold
I got new socks they keep my feet pretty warm
We laugh and play like a couple of kids
Iʼm so happy to be learning new tricks
I can make the best of all my time
I can shake the monkey off my mind
I was lost with nothing to live for
I could join the army put myself in a war
So upset I didnʼt know what to do
But Iʼm so happy now that I found you
We can make the best of all our time
We can find a better kind of life
When I was a little boy
Everything was in pictures and movies
I did what other people thought I should
But now my mind is different
I canʼt tell you what is winning what is losing
Or which I been choosing to do
My mind and body made a little bet
Can I be happy am I able to yet
For all my life they never could get along
They split the money and nobody won
I canʼt take it losing all the time
I feel like Iʼm losing my mind
When I was a little boy
Everything was in pictures and movies
I did what other people thought I should
But now my mind is different
I can tell you what is winning what is losing
And which Iʼll be choosing to do
Move your mind another step with me
Weʼll take our time and make it last
When I feel you lying next to me
Iʼll know that I am finally a man
Weʼre gonna love each other now the best we can

Meat On A String

Meat on a String
I believe in a thread
That flows through all
Good and the bad
I wouldnʼt complain
I guess I could
Wonʼt change a thing
So whats the use
The smartest thing I ever said is that
I donʼt know much
Better stay out of it
Stay in my head stay in my bed
Youʼre right like a dream
You always get what you want
You never got what you needed
Now youʼre too far gone to see it
Donʼt need to know what it means
I know how it feels
You donʼt have to see it
To believe that itʼs real
Call it a God
Call it a Key
Call it a Drug
It donʼt matter to me
Meat on a string
Call it a rosary
Start praying to whatever you believe in
You and me used to think life was too easy
Oh how easy it is to make it hard
For some folks pain is the only way
They can believe in a God
They got faith in a savior
