He takes care of all the payments
In the office on the second floor
The elevator is not in service
So go in through the stairwell doors
Christopher Robbins
Is in charge of us all
Christopher Robbins

Day to Day
03:37

It was such a long conversation
We talked about your trip
How the stars filled up your vision
And your words start to lose their grip
But who would have known
That coming down wouldn’t be so tough
With your head stuck to a pillow
And you’re slipping away
Well I just hope that you get to do whatever you want to do
Yeah and I just hope that no one ever makes a fool of you
Oh and I hope one day you’ll get the chance to get away
From the day to day
Well I just hope that you get to do whatever you want to do
Yeah and I just hope that no one ever makes a fool of you
Oh and I hope one day you’ll get the chance
To say whatever it is that you want to say

Half Rich Loner
03:20
|
|||
I was the half rich loner
Hanging underneath the ceiling
Staring at a photo
Or taking notes at the meeting
Yeah that was me
I’m not afraid of the morning
I’m not afraid of the evening
I don’t think about religion
I handle all of my feelings
But this town has got me under some sort of spell
I was the half rich, no good for nothing
Never amount to anything, never going to make it
I was the half rich, no good for nothing
Hanging out under the ceiling, in the back

Most Delicious Drink
04:17
|
|||
We walked into the front door and Sue became excited
Everyone was there, everyone we invited
Soon we’ll share a laugh with some ghost stuck in the past
Just sipping on a drink that you wish would last forever
The most delicious drink
Now I find it hard to sleep with this stuck on my mind
Well these things always happen oh yeah, just from time to time
And if I showed my face then you’d know what I mean
That nothing is for certain oh yeah, well that’s just how it seems
When you came over to my house that day
I knew something was the matter yeah, you had something to say
Do you feel like getting something to eat? Yeah sure
I knew something was the matter
We’ve been giving our lives away
We are going in for work today

Cherry
03:29
|

What’s your favourite colour?
Is it cherry? Is it cherry?
Dark red looking at me
Hey here comes cherry, hello cherry
Do you remember the colour red, dark red?
Cherry oh cherry
Cherry, your favourite colour
Now I’ve been taking all my chances
Hanging off the branches of your love
All through last October
We wait for cherry, we wait for cherry
When I see cherry, when I see cherry
Cherry you’re favourite colour
Dark red, dark red
Cherry oh cherry
Cherry oh cherry
Cherry, you’re favourite colour
Cherry oh cherry
Cherry, you’re favourite colour
Cherry oh cherry
Cherry, you’re favourite colour
Cherry oh cherry
Cherry, you’re favourite colour

Everything's Fine
03:29
|
|||
All of those buildings side by side
Saving your money before you die
When you were younger it was alright
Now you’ve got a habit of checking the time
But it is alright, yes everything’s fine
If it all ended tonight you can’t lie
All of those numbers fit safely inside
Waiting for later, things you could buy
I hope were getting
The most out of this life
That we are living
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
Well if I turned into a ghost
And never reach the light
You know I’ll still have a reason
For sleeping all through the night
Or getting up in the morning
Not being late for my job
And never mention the way it all turned out
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
It is alright, yes everything’s fine
It is alright, yes everything’s all right

Underneath the Roses
04:10
|

Judging by that call sounds like you need a friend
Or maybe someone with the wisdom and the thoughts to lend
You know twenty dollars don’t go far in a place like this
You were stuck underneath the roses
You know your feelings show but you don’t
It’s only for you and you alone
Don’t you look pretty lying in your bed of flowers
But underneath the roses is you there reaching out
For just a little help help figuring this out
Right there underneath the roses
Underneath the roses
Underneath the roses
Underneath the roses
Underneath the roses

Dancing With the Devil
02:51
|
|||
I woke up this morning just like any other morning
I keep one eye open all the time
And I’m walking their line
Tonight I’m going to go out dancing with the devil
After I get myself some lunch
Maybe stop by the public pool
Just to get my hair wet
Now I’m going to try on a brand new pair of pants
And the colour black
Just like my t-shirt
And I’m going to tuck my t-shirt down into my pants
Yesterday I left my house and forgot my keys
Had to call up my good friend
It took him no time to get there
Before you knew it I was back in my house back in bed
Thinking about making something to eat
Or maybe just go out to get something to eat
Because tonight I’m going dancing with the devil
Dancing all night
And now I’m going to go pick up that brand new pair of shoes that I had my eye on
And these shoes they’re still in style that’s the funny part
Because they’re nice shoes, perfect for going out and dancing with the devil
It could be a Friday, it could be a Saturday, hell it could even be a Sunday
Or a Monday, or a Tuesday
I’m busy both those days, but Wednesday and Thursday
I’m also busy those days
And I guess I’m busy most days
But tonight I’m going out dancing with the devil, yes
Only on a weekend hey?
Yeah keep my week days free just in case
There’s always a chance to make a little money
Dancing with the devil
With my shirt tucked in
Alright

Oh yeah you are beautiful
But you’re not that beautiful
Oh yeah you are wise
But you’re not that wise
And oh so important
But you were not needed
I found the book to be quite long after that
I found the book to be quite long after that
I found the book to be quite long after that
And his sister
You know how she got us here
But how long is forever?
I found the book to be quite long after that
I found the book to be quite long after that
I found the book to be quite long after that
But how long is forever?

Your Last Words
04:01
|
|||
You’re on your way back home, just like you used to do
Back when this all felt exciting, back when this all felt so new
Like all those times in the city when everyone forgot your name
And you were sleeping in the corner and everyday you’d do the same
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Now you’re going back for summer, you always stay there for a week
Every night sleep on the sofa, add to the list of things you need
Just like that old man’s daughter when she went running out of town
You would talk but never saw her, don’t think she wanted you around
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now
These were your last words
These were your last words
Well I think you got it now
Well I think you got it now

The Boys are Back
03:09
|
|||
Well at the edge of my long distance hall
I sleep through the day
And I missed your call
When you smoke your last cigarette of the night
I picture you
And it looks like you’re doing alright
I bet you’ve never stood on the inside looking outside
And I wonder if you had an opinion that you had to hide
Because the boys were back in town
Driving all the old men crazy
Lonely lonely lonely
