Am I the Only One?
(Knoblauch/Coleman/Benn)

Man comes on my TV
Tells me that it’ll all work out
Details the way it’ll soon be
Am I the only one
Who wants to shout?

He’s still sleepin’ on the sidewalk ¹
But plenty of room to get about
No outrage, no shock
Am I the only one
Who wants to shout?

TV spews Pentagon stories
Yet another Afghan route
Their boys die, our glory
Am I the only one
Who wants to shout?

You may say I’m a dreamer ²
Am I the only one?
You’re damn right I’m a dreamer
Am I the only one?

He Sleeps on the Sidewalk
(Knoblauch/Benn)

He sleeps on the sidewalk
- God it’s cold!
Shaking from detox
He’ll never get old

Hands in his pocket
- I need a bottle
Blast off like a rocket
His only throttle

- I need a drink
He’s begging for change
- A buck 27, I think
- I’m pleading for a change

- And yet I fight, yet I fight
- My battle all alone
Not a friendly face in sight
The seed long since sewn

Wanderlust
(Knoblauch/Coleman/Benn)

Like a rolling stone
Roaming here and there
More jet engine drone
You know it ain’t easy

Gotta keep movin’
Can’t stay in a chair
It ain’t about provin’
Or anything so cheesy

Livin’ on my own terms
Few would dare
Standing firm
In a world so sleazy

It ain’t about net worth
My life without care
But I’m livin’ this earth
And that sure does please me

The Good Old Days
(Knoblauch/Coleman/Benn)

My Dad likes to talk
About the good old days
Ozone layer protecting
Bare skin from solar rays

No Internet, no iPods
Mono rock on the AM band
Garden-fresh vegtables
Grown on Grandpa’s land

Zeppelin, Floyd
Still a discreet mystery
Not two clicks away
From complete history

No 24/7 news cycles
Blathering the night away
My Dad likes to talk
About the good old days

Strange Key
(Knoblauch/Coleman/Benn)

I used to think that
Nothing could change me
Then I opened
The door with this strange key
Now I’m just tryin’
To survive
When will the clarity
Finally arrive?

That simply can’t be
This makes no sense!
Taller than the trees
It’s way intense
I wanted to kiss
The hazy purple sky ¹
Now that I’m here
I can’t comply

Can’t sing or dance
Can’t talk or scream
Am I making
A freak-out scene?
I used to think that
Nothing could change me
Then I opened
This door with that strange key

Walking These Streets Alone
(Knoblauch)

I’ve been walking these streets alone
Can’t get you on the phone
And I can’t help but think about you

I’ve been walking these streets alone
Singin’ this same old song ¹
And I don’t care too much about you

I’ve been walking these streets alone
1,000 miles from home
And I don’t care too much about you

I’ve been walking streets alone
Forever I will roam
And I don’t give a flying fuck about you!
