Vodka Twist 02:10
Grey Goose me one more time - unloose me Unmute me one more time – Absolut-ly Get that glass, baby, I insist Let’s do the VODKA…TWIST 5 O’clock somewhere every day – unlock me Whole lotta don’t care, outta my way – just rock me Break that bar, baby, fill my fist Let’s do the VODKA…TWIST Tell the kids go play in the yard - This is too hard Turn up the tunes, we can cut a mean rug And get my Ruth Bader Ginsburg mug Save the lecture, baby – save the whales I made some ice for cocktails Count the days til the daze runs out Then we’ll do the whiskey shout Whose fault is it I’m annoyed? Do ya feel me? Rim salt for the unemployed – Tequil-me September is a month I missed. Let’s do the VODKA… Me & you VODKA Unscrew the VODKA TWIST

Hundreds of miles from landfall In the cold wet infinite blue My job is to photograph wildlife And I am here studying you You are a large wild predator I’m your small possible meal Though I have watched you for hours and hours I can’t assume that you know, what you feel because You're a You. I’m a Me. You are beautiful. I’m beautiful, sure, but you need dinner and I need a photograph. You're a You. I’m a Me. Here on the DEEP BLUE SEA. Here on t he deep blue, dangerous sea Yesterday you caught a penguin With your giant, incredible teeth You gave it to me, but it got away Cuz I’m slow and it’s not what I eat You did this four times with a live one Then offered me one that was dead I suddenly knew you thought I couldn’t feed myself So you provided me my daily bread because You're a You. I’m a Me. You are beautiful. I’m beautiful, sure, but you need dinner and I need a photograph. You're a You. I’m a Me. Here on the DEEP BLUE SEA. We locked eyes and I saw in an instant As clear as the sky could be I was there to get people to care And yet you took care of me You took care of me I live in a box in Manhattan I’m forced to connect every day Interact with the rush and the madness In a very unmeaningful way And your picture hangs in my kitchen To remind me life is real It fills me with infinite gratitude For the faraway, wild indescribable blue For the gesture of kindness, simple and true For the gift of a meal, for the heart inside you You’re beautiful. I’m beautiful, sure. We both got dinner and I got my photograph. You're a You. I’m a Me. Here on the DEEP BLUE SEA. Here on the deep blue, dangerous sea You’re beautiful.

You Never 04:05
YOU NEVER (c) 2019 I ARE Music (ASCAP) You didn’t plan on Scranton Coming from Columbus to New York But you broke down at a diner off the turnpike A road with a fork You were 3 credits short of the program 3 credits from a degree Nothing was standing in your way No distractions, no emergencies 8 projects on your desktop No schedule, no goal You left two peanuts in the kitchen unshelled, in a bowl No adult wants just two peanuts Did you think you were being nice? Eat all the goddamn peanuts JESUS CHRIST YOU NEVER… YOU NEVER FINISH… YOU NEVER FINISH WHAT YOU… YOU NEVER… YOU NEVER FINISH… YOU NEVER FINISH WHAT YOU… Nobody gives a rat’s ass If you do or you don’t And I’d like to give a rat’s ass ‘Cause you prob’ly won’t Can you do all the things you talk up? Are you a fraud or just afraid? It’s time to climb out Of the bed you never made. YOU NEVER… YOU NEVER FINISH… YOU NEVER FINISH WHAT YOU… YOU NEVER… YOU NEVER FINISH… YOU NEVER FINISH WHAT YOU… You never played the big cards – you never took your shot I’m still waiting to see what you’ve got What could possibly happen if you saw something through? Whatcha gonna do? YOU NEVER… YOU NEVER FINISH… YOU NEVER FINISH WHAT YOU… YOU NEVER… YOU NEVER FINISH… YOU NEVER FINISH WHAT YOU…
