The white elephants of babylon
Have long since vanished
From the sunset strip
Fatty Arbuckle's having a reincarnation
Scandal on the dark side of town
There's too many faces
And too many open bars
Too many neon signs
Too many cars
Are you listening or do you wanna talk
All your makeup fantasies outlined in chalk
All the bartending starlets of Echo Park
Seems like Hollywood is broken down
There's too many faces
And too many open bars
Too many neon signs
Too many cars
These black and white movie screens
Lay down the foundation for suburban dreams
A dedication to Harry Dean
Stardust follies in the sky
There's too many faces
And too many open bars
Too many neon signs
Too many cars

I Cannot Say
03:46

Your watery grave won't be for a long time
Not the right time
Slip sliding away
Poured out forty five discs
Made of moonshine
Please don't ask another question
That you already know the answer to
I cannot speak
I cannot say
Making the day walk into quiet time
Maybe trip wires
Are drugging the haze
Made for the daytime
Not the right time
Please don't ask another question
That you already know the answer to
I cannot speak
I cannot say

Street Life
02:58
|

|
When the band grows quiet
And the sky gets dark
You'll find me sleeping
On the boulevard
Cigarette ash in my teeth
I just gotta know what goes on
Street Life (x3)
Hearing the pulse of your melody
Knocks the Eiffel Tower
Into the sea
Peasants scream and run
From your feet
I just wanna know what goes on
Street Life (x3)
Danced all night underneath the boardwalk bridge
You told me Jesus would give me
A reason to live
Smoking spliffs til' nearly five am
I just wanna know what goes on
Street Life (x3)

Dreams Fall Away
04:42
|

The booze on my breath
Matches the bruise on my heart
You make embalming
Look like a form of art
Cat's got your tongue
Tres bien be coup
Every joint that I smoke
Every drag, every toke
I can dream but my dreams
Will fall away
Throwing rocks off at cars
Just to see how I feel
Pretending I'm Daniel Webster
Serving cutlets of veal
Pagan free loving worship
Of whiskey and wine
Singing hedonist blues
Til' the end of the night
Every joint that I smoke
Every drag, every toke
I can dream but my dreams
Will fall away
Tonight's any night
You can see in the stars
You can breathe it in houses, couches, and bars
Stuck up motherfuckers are making shit hard
Last call for now
Wait behind bars
Every joint that I smoke
Every drag, every toke
I can dream but my dreams
Will fall away

Idle Time
05:46
|

|
I've been chasing sunlight
For all of my life
When I should have
Been chasing the rain
They say the foothills
Of deep red Arizona
Are the sharpest that I've ever seen
There's no time
Like Idle Time
Unless it's time
That passes away
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe I'm down
I'd trade every moment
For some Idle Time
You hair is glowing soft
In the light of this room
And your eyes
Have a sultry hue of the moon
Studio applause
From the TV screen
Blah, blah, blah
You see what I mean
There's no time
Like Idle Time
Unless it's time
That passes away
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe I'm down
I'd trade every moment
For some Idle Time
Me with my book and
You with your sewing machine
A puff of the good stuff
And I'm off to sleep
One last horror movie
For the drive in crowd
If you wanted to scream
Then you best scream it loud
There's no time
Like Idle Time
Unless it's time
That passes away
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe I'm down
I'd trade every moment
For some Idle Time

Master of Small Things
02:58
|

You were running in and out of time
To listen to me cry
About all of the things
I wanted to do
Maybe I could realize
It takes forever to try
You always wanted to be
The Master of Small Things
Fake or real
I couldn't give a fuck
Cause I'm running in and out of luck
Maybe there's a way
I'll get revenge
What kind of word is that
It's just another way to attach
You've always wanted to be
The Master of Small Things
Maybe there's another way
For you to get out of the daze
You've always to be the Master of Small Things
