Radio Down 02:38
We were moving right along Radio on and singing a song Hit the brakes and locked the wheels Screeching tires and fishtail swerve Little mouse – what a sound The music’s gone, radio down Maybe they weren’t the best laid plans So much for plans at all RADIO DOWN, RADIO DOWN WE NEVER GOT TO NEW ORLEANS CAN’T GO BACK TO 2019 RADIO DOWN, RADIO DOWN Like a scene in movies after the cloud and shockwave blast There was no bomb I could see (but) everything changed just like that The whole world’s lost like a wedding ring In that dish behind hand creams Bound by vows we keep because Because, just because RADIO DOWN, RADIO DOWN WE NEVER GOT TO NEW ORLEANS CAN’T GO BACK TO 2019 RADIO DOWN, RADIO DOWN Suddenly changed on the road In a flash no one saw The water drained from our snowglobe Dashed our plans like the plow Maybe its not a lifelong thing Winter comes before the Spring One big wreck the whole world round The music’s gone, radio down

Swing Hammer 03:49
I swing my hammer, Dr. Maslow I swing my hammer, at all these problems I swing my hammer, it feels so natural I swing my hammer, , can fix whatever Anger – I pound it Lonely – I pound it Frustration – I pound it Pay bills – I pound it Heartbroke – I pound it Feel sick – I pound it Got blues – I pound it Depression – I pound it Worries – I pound it Doing Alright – I pound it I might have some other tools I could use, But nothing feels so good as when I pick up my hammer And pound it

Crazy about that pretty girl She never let me have a chance I thought she had starry eyes Didn't know how much so So surprised at her invite answered yes on the spot "Would you want to go with me and join a Martian colony?" AIN'T NO PETS ALLOWED ON MARS DON'T HAVE ROOM FOR YOUR GUITARS GET YOUR SHOTS, TAKE YOUR PILLS CALL YOUR LAWYER, SIGN YOUR WILL Gave away all I had Hardly said one good-bye I dreamed about making love In one-third our gravity When she woke up from deep sleep She had a crush on Captain Steve Now for sure my bubble's burst Countless miles from the Earth AIN'T NO PETS ALLOWED ON MARS DON'T HAVE ROOM FOR YOUR GUITARS GET YOUR SHOTS, TAKE YOUR PILLS CALL YOUR LAWYER, SIGN YOUR WILL When you cry in outer space Tears don't fall down your face They float around all about Slow motion water spout Gave away all I had Thought I signed up for a dream Chased a woman unto Mars Red planet broken heart. AIN'T NO PETS ALLOWED ON MARS DON'T HAVE ROOM FOR YOUR GUITARS GET YOUR SHOTS, TAKE YOUR PILLS CALL YOUR LAWYER, SIGN YOUR WILL
