Think about what your momma say
Think about what your daddy do
I don't care where your boyfriends stay
'Cause all I want is to be with you
Mirror, mirror
Mirror, mirror on the wall
You're the brightest star

Jessica called me on the telephone:
Another loss at home, 7-0
The locker room‘s smothered in smoke
These girls think cheer is a joke
Jessica called me on the telephone:
The Donaghey twins rigged the homecoming court
double the count when they tallied the vote
two birds, one stone
(But I heard you got a )
new tattoo, cobra in gold
tight-squeezed through the pink of a rose
ha ha, Jessica
Jessica called me on the telephone:
A poet in song is much better than prose
The Chores go on tonight at 7 o’clock
Am I picking you up or not?
Give me a J, Give me an E
Give me a double S, I and a C
J-E-S-S-I-C-A
Roll me up, throw me away

Clouds of Heaven

Like a dog out in the street
Like a wave, caught underneath
Like a rhinestone cut from machine
I ain’t a cowboy
Once you know what’s the freedom to feel?
Who took care of it loosens the deal
Clouds of heaven echo the sun
I saw the kingdom of gold
the kingdom of gold

Jealous Forever

Does a kiss still count?
House band, saxophone
Beach bar, Pensacola
I shook the shake shack
told the boss
I’ll be in around 10 and blow ‘til 4:00
She was shakin’
out there in the moonlihght
with some sort of Romeo
tangled up and tongue tied
Jealous forever, does a kiss still count?
Jealous forever, jealous forever
Back in the bar, middle of the show
I’m diggin’ deep into the saxophone
She walks in, cigarette blow,
turned the Strat from white to gold!
I was shakin’ up there in the spotlight
This little Juliet
caught me on my worst night

Communion
Communion in the street
Communion, you and me
Oh my love, oh my sweetest friend
When the taste of summer ends
If we go back we may never know
the bitter blow of saxophone
Monday’ s here, it’s gonna rain
Tuesday, work is such a pain
Wednesday, Thursday never end
TGIF my friend
Communion in the street
Communion, you and me
Oh my love, don’t give up, the coast
is green and gold in Mexico
If we turn back we may never see
the setting sun
eternally
