(Will Oldham) The force of my love was strong The sea lion laying down on The song in the air Was fritting her care With singer can be among song (x2)
(Sage Francis) Ma, ma look what I did ma Look what I did to my hands I broke 'em You gave me the stone, gave me the chisel Didn't say how to hold 'em Didn't say give away every piece of the puzzle Till I was left with nothin' But I took it upon myself to crush it up and distribute the dust Get in the bus, hop in the van Jump in the water, crawl to the land Build another castle out of the sand Break it down and then I get into the saddle again Gone city to city I'm already lost to the boss Who is new in town I'ma ride this horse till it bucks me off And I'm forced to shoot it down I'ma take him out for some gasoline I'ma trade this cow for some magic beans Make mom proud of the deals that I've made Cause I'm just a modern day Johnny Appleseed But I'm glad that I never passed the gins And I never put down the axe Piano man got checkered dance floor The grace and the painful look on his face Cause the crowd is packed And the louder they clapped The less he is able to make the connection Between what he sees when he hears certain notes And the hurt that is shown in his facial expression I don't need your 'go-ahead' to go ahead Y'all don't know if sales gon' be-easy But sweet Jesus who wants to sleep with me Way to many moves to learn But not enough people to put 'em on Look it mom No hands I built a suit of armor with wooden arms
