Chai Tea
I’ll see you soon, but not too soon
And in my heart that doesn’t mean that I don’t love you
I’ve seen that face, I rest my case
Cause in the skies I can’t clear the clouds above you
Try some chai tea with lemon, please
I’ll be okay
Doo-Doo-Doo-Doo
Try some chai tea with lemon, please
I’ll be okay
Try some chai tea with lemon, please
I’ll be okay
Some honey would be nice, maybe try it on ice
Anything to chase this mood away
I’ll see you soon, but not too soon
And in my heart that doesn’t mean that I don’t love you
So get that cup, and fill it up
I will tell you all a story like the Bijou
Try some chai tea with lemon, please
I’ll be okay
Try some chai tea with lemon, please
I’ll be okay
I’ll be okay
I’ll be okay
I’ll be okay

Known Entity
In the height of our might we delight and goodnight to you
And in spite of your fright you stay tight and it's right for you
Downtown, hey now, everyone is there, you know it's
Show time, hey now, breaking off in pairs, you know she's
Center stage, hey now, with the perfect hair, come on
You know who it is
Media darling formed overnight
I'm a known entity
Flash in the pan in the bright spotlight
I'm a known entity
Like the finest of wine the design will align for you
The sign will define that the times will be kind to you
Downtown, hey now, everyone is there, you know it's
Show time, hey now, breaking off in pairs, you know he's
Center stage, hey now, doesn't give a care, come on
You know who it is
Media darling formed overnight
I'm a known entity
Flash in the pan in the bright spotlight
I'm a known entity
I am no stranger, I am no stranger
I am no stranger, I am no stranger
Downtown, hey now, everyone's on cynic, 'til we’re
Up there, hey now, putting on a clinic, now they
Just stare, hey now, when the song is finished
They know who we are
Media darling formed overnight
I'm a known entity
Flash in the pan in the bright spotlight
I'm a known entity
I am no stranger, I'm a Known Entity
I am no stranger, I'm a Known Entity
I am no stranger, I'm a Known Entity
I am no stranger, I'm a Known Entity

Too Loud
Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden
You’re too loud, You’re too loud
You’re too loud for me
Baby, now, baby why’re you shouting for
Turn it up one more, turn it up one more
I can’t win in this loudness war
Turn it up one more, turn it up one more, saying
Don’t you know
You’re too loud, You’re too loud
You’re too loud for me
Baby, oh, baby why’d you pump that gain?
Turn it up one more, turn it up one more
Your axe sounds like a hurricane
Turn it up one more, turn it up one more
Don’t you know
You’re too loud, You’re too loud
You’re too loud for me
Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden
Baby, now, baby what’s it all about?
Turn it up one more, turn it up one more
I can’t hear and my voice gave out
Turn it up one more, turn it up one more
Don’t you know
Don’t you know
You’re too loud, You’re too loud
You’re too loud for me
You’re too loud, You’re too loud
You’re too loud for me
Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden, Doo Yodden

Legend

Legend
The legend is told of the man on the hill
He kept pushing that rock with all of his will
He gathered his strength without hint of a doubt
And he never gave up, the time just ran out
The legend is gone, the legend is gone, all gone
The legend is gone, but his legend, his legend lives on
The story is shared, a heroine of old
Who was facing the wrath of a multitude cold
With her back to the wall, face to the skies
She planted her feet, and looked them all the in the eyes
The legend is gone, the legend is gone, all gone
The legend is gone, but her legend, her legend lives on
Legends keep giving when hope is a dying art
Told to the living, memories that never depart
A dear friend of mine, world coming apart
Determined to hold on to his thankful heart
He said, “I’ve had such blessings, and I have them still.”
No, he never forgot, and I never will
The legend is gone, the legend is gone, all gone
The legend is gone, but his legend, his legend lives on

Work with Me
One can struggle, two can tango, you know this my friend
Worked this angle far too long, just to see it end
Visionary, dignitary, someone has to bend
Nothing ventured, nothing gained, and nothing to defend
(Come on) Work with me, work with me
Let's make this happen
You may have your own agenda, things that you believe
Yes, I have my own desires, things I just won’t leave
Genuinely and sincerely, nothing up my sleeve
Taken with a grain of sodium, I'm not that naïve
Work with me, work with me
Let's make this happen
Work with me, work with me
Let's make this happen
It takes a long, long time to build up trust
And just one moment to muck it up
Things may not get too much lower,
So come on over, be my four leaf clover and
Work with me, work with me
Let's make this happen
It takes a long, long time to build up trust
And just one moment to muck it up
Things may not get too much lower,
So come on over, be my four leaf clover and
Work with me, work with me
Let's make this happen
Work with me, work with me
Let's make this happen
Work with me, work with me
Let's make this happen
Let's make this happen (Repeat)

One Way Conversation
Another one way conversation I never know how it ends
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation I thought of you as a friend
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
La dee dah
I heard seven peals of thunder, I saw seven worlds of wonder
I’ve got seven seven reasons for not going under
No, the cannon fire won’t reach me, as the sycophants beseech me
To take cover from the ordinary struggles of the day
But if life is empty promises on unforgiving lips
An endless opportunity right at your fingertips
If they can’t get you on the map, I know someone who will
The hounds are getting closer on the hill
Another one way conversation I never know how it ends
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation I thought of you as a friend
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
La dee dah
I’m not a minister of seasons, not a collared man of ease and
Not a feather to be blown about by every passing breeze
Now I do believe your warning in the breaking of the morning
But they bring me no more shelter from the struggles of the day
If I can’t keep you satisfied, well, I don’t know who will
An endless opportunity that no one can fulfill
And when life presents a dish that only ends with broken teeth
The hounds are closing in on the heath
Another one way conversation I never know how it ends
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation I thought of you as a friend
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
La dee dah
Ah - Ah
If I can’t keep you satisfied, well, I don’t know who will
Endless opportunities that no one can fulfill
And when life presents a dish that only ends with broken teeth
The hounds are closing in on the heath
Another one way conversation I never know how it ends
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation I thought of you as a friend
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation I never know how it ends
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation I thought of you as a friend
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation, oh-oh-oh
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
Another one way conversation I never know how it ends
La la la la dah dee day, La la la la dah dee dah
La dee day, La dee dah

One Mistake Away

One Mistake Away – Original words by Andy Priebe
One Mistake Away, whoa-oh-oh
Run, hide, laugh, cry
One Mistake Away
One Mistake Away
Yeah, the consequence is coming
Whoa-oh-oh
Yeah, the consequence is coming
Laugh, run, hide, cry
One Mistake Away
You push that rock, baby, up the hill,
Then just that once you lose your grip.
The devil laughs with a little thrill,
He knew one day you'd lose your grip.
One Mistake Away, whoa-oh-oh
Run, hide, laugh, cry
One Mistake Away
You dig that hole, honey, nice and deep,
And then the sides come caving in.
Who's gonna care? Your sweat was cheap,
Think this is something you can win?
One Mistake Away, whoa-oh-oh
Run, hide, laugh, cry
One Mistake Away
The Fates and Furies have their minds made up,
Maybe tomorrow, perhaps today.
They'll spill the wine that filled your cup,
We're all just one mistake away.
The Fates and Furies have rolled the dice,
It's not for you or me to say.
The time will come for you to pay their price,
We're all just one mistake away.
Buy a ticket on a leaking ship,
Find new ways to kill the pain.
Either way, could be a fatal trip,
So one more time I'll explain:
One Mistake Away, whoa-oh-oh
Run, hide, laugh, cry
One Mistake Away
One Mistake Away, whoa-oh-oh
Laugh, run, hide, cry
One Mistake Away
One Mistake Away
Yeah, the consequence is coming
One Mistake Away
Yeah, the consequence is coming
One Mistake Away
Yeah, the consequence is coming
One Mistake Away

I Don't Remember

I Don’t Remember
Scene two, Act one
Sleeping Beauty waiting for the prodigal son
Burning daylight
Whatcha gonna do with the rest of your life?
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
Background acting
Waiting for an expert to arrive on scene
Mumbling aimless
How this one will end is anyone's guess
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
I don’t remember all the things I said
And all the promises, What goes on in my head?
I don't remember the color, the shape, the feel...
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
Shut in, sad shape
Cleopatra asking me to peel her a grape
First love, last kiss
Nothing lasts forever and that includes this
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
I don’t remember all the things I said
And all the promises, What goes on in my head?
I don't remember the color, the shape, the feel...
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
I don’t remember, I don’t remember
I don’t remember, I don’t remember, ooo-oo

Big Man
My, what big shoes you are filling
Mind is weak, the flesh is willing
You’re not the only one who’s got no tomorrow
You’re not the only one taking a stand
You’re not the only one to buy, rent and borrow
You’re not the only one who wants to be a Big Man
One step chart count, heading upward
Two steps back, but moving forward
You’re not the only one who's telling a story
You’re not the only one who’s got big plans
You’re not the only one gunning for glory
You’re not the only one who wants to be a Big Man
Toss out a line, stop on a dime
Rhythm and rhyme, have a good time
Strike up a pose, ribbons and bows
Everyone knows
You want to be the Big, Big Man
He’s got it going on
He’s got it going on
He’s got it going on
You know he’s the one who’s got it going on
He’s got it going on
He’s got it going on
He’s got it going on
You know he’s the one who’s got it going on
You’re not the only one who's telling a story
You’re not the only one who’s got big plans
You’re not the only one gunning for glory
You’re not the only one who wants to be a Big Man
Toss out a line, stop on a dime
Rhythm and rhyme, have a good time
Strike up a pose, ribbons and bows
Everyone knows
You want to be the Big, Big Man
Big, Big Man
Big, Big Man

Exception to the Rule
I want to be tested
I want to be tamed
I want to be adopted
I want to be claimed
I want to be cryptic
I want to be a pain
I want to be easy
I want to be plain to you
and free from all life's other ties
or am I wasting my time?
I want to be open
I want to be a cave
I want to be captive
I want to be a slave to you
and know that somehow we'll be fine
or am I wasting my time?
Yeah, there's so many people still wandering all the time
Am I the exception?
So many clinging to a sterile, feral mind
The exception to the rule
I want to be cryptic
I want to be a pain
I want to be easy
I want to be plain to you
and free from all life's other ties
or am I wasting my time?
So many people saying Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah
Am I the exception?
So many people crying Wah, wah, wah, wah
The exception to the rule
So many people saying Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah
Am I the exception?
So many people crying Wah, wah, wah, wah
The exception to the rule
So many people, the exception (repeat)
To the rule

Meant to Be
With your sassy socks and windblown hair
Walk around like you're on a dare
Oh darling, this was meant to be
Crossing arms and swaying hips
One more whisper on your lips
Oh darling, darling, this was meant to be
Hopeless, yes, I've seen hopeless
and weightless, I've felt that, too
Hopeless, yes, I've seen hopeless
and weightless, I've felt that, too
With your sassy socks and windblown hair
Walk around like you're on a dare
Oh darling, this was meant to be
Crossing arms and swaying hips
One more whisper on your lips
Oh darling, darling, darling this was meant to be
Oh darling, darling, darling this was meant to be
Oh darling, darling, darling this was meant to be

Fixed
Fixed, Fixed on the road ahead
Fixed, fixed though you’re feeling dead
Fixed, fixed like wagon wheel
So many songs about broken things
Fixed, Fixed as the hammer falls,
Fixed, fixed as we build this wall
Fixed, fixed like wagon wheel
So many songs about broken lives
I know this life can be a heavy load
And I grow weary of fighting the good fight, finding a word that rhymes
But you know it doesn’t matter if I’m fixed or I’m broken
I hit the road and hold out for better times
Fixed, Fixed on a point in space
Fixed, fixed as you win the race
Fixed, fixed like wagon wheel
So many songs about broken dreams
Fixed, Fixed on a point in space

Future Happy Memories
Pose for me my darling, come on, show the real you
The camera may not love you, dear, but you know I do
Blinking eyes and moving arms are far beyond my skill
All I want is for you to stand still
Oh, I have a picture of you in mind and on my wall
Yeah, we’ve got an 8x10, and a dozen wallet size, what’s all this then?
You know I think I’ll fight it until I realize
These are future happy memories
You won’t be satisfied until I smile
Focus, flash and aperture, and all things resolute
There is so much more to this than just point and shoot
Be a dear, and stand right here, I’ve got the perfect view
Just a couple more and we’ll be through
Oh, I have a picture of you in mind and on my wall
Yeah, we’ve got an 8x10, and a dozen wallet size, what’s all this then?
You know I think I’ll fight it until I realize
These are future happy memories
You won’t be satisfied until I smile
And you get that look on your face, saying just do it my way
Oh, I have a picture of you in mind and on my wall
Yeah, we’ve got an 8x10, and a dozen wallet size, what’s all this then?
You know I think I’ll fight it until I realize
These are future happy memories
You won’t be satisfied until I smile
Come on smile
What’s all this then?
You know I think I’ll fight it until I realize
These are future happy memories
These are future happy memories
These are future happy memories
You won’t be satisfied until I smile

Run the Path You're On
03:42

Run the Path You’re On
Some pretty grim words the doctor said
Reality rears its ugly head
Everything stops, and time goes missing
And all of your friends are going out of their heads
Some of them acting like you're already dead
So you say, "Hey, come on. Listen."
You want to know what you can do, I'll tell you
Mind what you have, live for today
And run the path you're on
Cherish the past, let come what may
But run the path you're on
The path you’re on
There’s tests and treatments, nurses and docs
Some days are gold, some a bag of rocks
And all you want to do, is stop thinking
One step forward on the road ahead
Then two steps back, as is often said
So I guess, it’s Fair Dinkum
Just a down under way to say it’s true, you’ve got to
Mind what you have, live for today
And run the path you’re on
Cherish the past, let come what may
But run the path you’re on
The path you’re on
When all you’ve given and left behind
Finally gives you some peace of mind
In a timeline not of your choosing
Now maybe there really is something more
When we go knocking on that final door
But until then just keep moving
Toward the moments we have in sight, won’t you
Mind what you have, live for today
And run the path you’re on
Cherish the past, let come what may
But run the path you’re on
The path you’re on
Do, do,do (etc..)
The path you’re on
