Paid In Full 04:52
Hid my smile, you said goodbye Walked on, my head held high Man I’ve never felt so free As you said those words to me Paid my debt in full to you When I heard you’d been untrue Packed your bags and booked your plane Now I face the sun again See you later Fly to the moon If I see you tomorrow It will be too soon Get out of here Set me free I don’t want you To come back to me Had a party the day you went Took a trip, your money’s spent Trashed your stuff and now I’m sane No signs of you remain Dumped your letters on the fire Saw the smoke take your desires Drank myself into a state Never looking back, too late!

Meet at the end of the day At a secret place Play till the break of dawn No-one knows your face You can start to lose yourself Good times never end And with a drink or two The days extend At ‘The Fat Mans’ Lodge’ Money hides your name Someone always locks the door At the Fat Mans’ place No one ever talks of war, Politics or race You can spend a lost weekend Start again next week Eat a horse and drink a lake You don’t have to speak At ‘The Fat Mans’ Lodge’ Money hides your name At ‘The Fat Mans’ Lodge’ There ain’t no shame … Fat Mans’ Lodge Ohh ohhh

Sunny day Clouds away From me Step is long Worries gone Today Take my hand We can fly Away On our journey On our way from here Crossing through this place called fear Flying skywards, (2nd chorus) To the blue Sunny weather takes us through Touching down Heavens found My day Gather speed Take the lead Again Letting go Swooping low I’m free

I’m like a battery-driven bunny Just beating a drum Can’t seem to make any money My luck is dumb I’m just a frantic mouse Stuck on a wheel Don’t want to leave the house Ain’t no appeal Running on the spot Givin’ it all I got I’m just marking time But I must confess This is not progress It’s an uphill climb I’m givin’ it all away Can’t do any more Like doing a backward flip When you’re glued to the ground I’m on a sinking ship That’ll never be found Running on the spot Givin’ it all I got I’m just marking time But I must confess This is not progress It’s an uphill climb I’m givin’ it all away Can’t do any more They’re coming down on me Heading for the floor Like doing a backward flip When you’re glued to the ground I’m on a sinking ship

Worlds Below 04:18
Thinking what I read Dangers I can’t see Look all around The jungle below me Sitting on the fence Not sure what’s below It’s not a place to be To dance or go Don’t you tell me, not to worry Don’t you tell me, not to be scared World’s below World’s below World’s below World’s below Landed in a heap Like feathers on the lawn Wasn’t my day Got hit by a storm My heart feels sorrow Knowing you won’t return I will surely miss you Like hot embers (spoken), my heart burns
