Eskimo Joe Album

So get up off the floor
I've heard it all before
You're only coming down
It'll pass before too long
So get up off the ground

I've heard it all before
I need a little more
I'm anxious and I'm bored
Some things you can't afford
So get up off the floor

Seven eleven keep me warm
I dont want to get too cold
There're some things you
Can't afford
But they'll cost you
Anyway

Forget so easily
Just what it does to me
It blisters off my skin
My bodies caving in
From the pressure of this thing

But i will be the one
Who lives through all this fun
I'm stronger than the rest
When I'm at my best
But there's some things i must confess

Seven eleven keep me warm
I dont want to get too cold
There're some things you
Can't afford
But they'll cost you
Anyway

Don't look so suprised
Open up your eyes
You'll know
You'll know

Hey you
Sleeper
You'll dream deeper

Ooh I'm so spaced out today
Ooh I could have slept for days
It's like a radar and it comes to you
From the sea
From the sea
From the sea

Ooh she's just so under pain
Ooh I'm so spaced out today
My head's a lead weight and it comes to you
From the sea
From the sea
From the sea

Hello, hello, oh hello
(The world repeats itself somehow)
She knows, she knows, oh she knows
(The world repeats itself somehow)
Only just beginning to know
She's only just beginning to know

Ooh there's just no oxygen
Ooh why can't we just fall in
In the sea

Hello, hello, oh hello
(The world repeats itself somehow)
She knows, she knows, oh she knows
(The world repeats itself somehow)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Hello, hello, oh hello
(The world repeats itself somehow)
She knows, she knows, oh she knows
(The world repeats itself somehow)
Only just beginning to know
She's only just beginning to know
She's only just beginning to know now

Hey whatever happened to you last night
We thought we lost you there
Those long days
And long long nights
They keep you up inside

Stay awake all night talking about our friends
It never ends
Always do it when we're drunk
I just need some kind of meditation
Keep my feet from
Falling off the ground

Life is better with you

See the people on the street
Hear the sound of defeat
It just seems to me we know too many people
It makes the ones we love seem great

Life is better with you

It happens all the time
The people pass you by
Like everyone you knew
They are changing through and through
You really didn't think it would last
But that's all in the past

Life is better with you

See the people on the street
Hear the sound of defeat
Like everybody that you know
Say they all want you to go

Oh inner city streets
Where I sleep
I watched her take this romance
Home to me, oh

I believe in something more
I watched her heart
Through bathroom doors
It's true
Eyes that are older than you

Oh echoes in the heart
When we meet
I chose to take this moment
To tell you I'm leaving, oh

I believe in something more
I watched her heart
Through bathroom doors
It's true
Eyes that are older than you

I watch her count it up on one hand
Like lovers and ocean and land
And it keeps on going
Over and over and over again

Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo

I believe in something more
I watched her hard
Through bathroom doors
Oh, I believe in something more
I watched her hard
Through bathroom doors
It's true
Eyes that are older than you

See him walkin' in the park
With a few things on his mind
He's been talking with the ones, the ones that he loves

Tell me who is gonna to pay
I'm so anxious I don't know
You can see it on their face as it takes its toll ooh

And he takes his time, yeah he takes his time
No more ever ever gonna mind
I don't care what the future holds, all I know is that I'm gettin' old
Ooh oooh

I think I've had an affair
Least that's what they call it these days
And it wasn't very fair to the ones that I love

But I just pushed her away
Oh there was nothing I could say
Now I hang myself each night with this noose that I built

And he takes his time, yeah he takes his time
No more ever ever gonna mind
I don't care what the future holds, all I know is that I'm gettin' old

He takes his time, yeah he takes his time
No more ever ever gonna mind
I don't care what the future holds, all I know is that I'm gettin' old
Ooh oooh
Ooh yeah

Takes his time, yeah he takes his time
No more ever ever gonna mind
I don't care what the future holds, all I know is that I'm gettin' old
He takes his time, yeah he takes his time
No more ever ever gonna mind
I don't care what the future holds, all I know is that I'm gettin' old
Ooh oooh
Ooh yeah

Early morning
The crows are calling
I left myself on the other side
Now I'm waiting for something
To get me out of anything
Or whatever kind of mess I got myself in again

Dawn again
And the funny thing is
You never know how good you got it
Until it goes bad
So baby don't get mad

Don't let it fly this time
I'm only trying to be your friend

Early warnings
The funeral mourners
Are putting on their stuff to get together
For that same old dance
When it's someone's last

Don't let it fly this time
I'm only trying to be your friend

I give you days and days and days and I'm
Only trying to be your friend

I'm so tired my feet don't touch the ground
I love the sky so much
I just fall straight down

I'm so tired my feet don't touch the ground
I love the ocean so much I might even drown

She gets grumpy when she doesn't come
She says, "Hey boy you got all the fun"
Then she comes over
With the flowers in her hand

She gets clumsy when she's all alone
I say "baby, there's some things you just don't know"
Then she comes over
And puts her hand upon her heart and says

Oohh you could she her dance the seven veils
Oohh there are only four to fall away

She gets jealous
And asks me "Who was she"
I say "Patience" and put a kiss upon her cheek
Then she comes over
And says, "The two of us should never part"

Oohh you could she her dance the seven veils
Oohh there are only four to fall away
He's the one whose questions go unanswered most the time
Words
Words to keep from falling from her mouth

Even though she was a mirror in her-own time
That wasn't her
You know she was a spy

Oohh you could she her dance the seven veils
Oohh there are only four to fall away
No I won't be coming home this year
Now watch them fall away

If I keep smoking this cold will never go away
If I keep talking I know you'll never come and stay

Stand the two up next to the other
Don't feel strange to me my lover

All I've got here is books and music
I used to have exercise but I outgrew it

Say I'm going home and you go silent
Never know what to do
Just say it's cool
And I'll feel ok

I feel cold next to the fire
It's an old story but I think I like it

All I've got here is books and music
I used to have exercise but I outgrew it

Say I'm going home and you go silent
Never know what to do
Just say it's cool
And I'll feel ok

I feel cold next to the fire
It's an old story but I think I like it
Spend your days in indecision
I got a lot of things on my mind this morning

Go to sleep now and dream of him close,
While the sky turns from blacker to red.
When you wake in the morning he will be gone,
And leave you dreaming of him close.

Whatever happened to this room
It used to be so good, and now the days pile on the floor
And the rain leaked through the crate paper we stuck up on the door

No more pictures on the wall
No more memories of holidays we took
when we were two years younger than we are today

All I know is she never impressed by me
All I know is she never impressed by me

Broken bottles on the ground
Blown by the wind, shatter peice and walk among the plants
Collecting water and reflecting all the sounds they are
reflecting all the sounds

All I know is she never impressed by me
All I know is she never impressed by me

It makes no difference can't you see
She's the one who needs to be
All I know is she never impressed by me

And the secret note that she wrote oh I'm special

Whatever happened to this room
Whatever happened to this room
Whatever happened to this room
Whatever happened to this room

All I know is she never impressed by me
All I know is she never impressed by me
It makes no difference can't you see
She's the one who needs to be
All I know is she never impressed by me
(Whatever happened to this room)
All I know is she never impressed by me
(Whatever happened to this room)
All I know is she never impressed by me
(Whatever happened to this)
(Whatever happened to this)
All I know is she never impressed by me
(Whatever happened to this room)
All I know is she never impressed by me

I don't wanna die
In a car crash with you
Tonight
Tonight

The roads are wet
And you're asleep at the wheel
Open your eyes
Open your eyes

Can't you try and wait
Till I'm wide awake
Or will it never come

And if it was a dream
Did you hear me scream
While you watched me sleep

The night time roads
Feel like we're floating away
Keep me safe
Keep me safe

And if we make it home
Then I will know
I'm still asleep
Still asleep

Can't you try and wait
Till I'm wide awake
Or will it never come

And if it was a dream
Did you hear me scream
While you watched me sleep

I'm almost home
I can't make it on my own
Almost home
Baby don't go
Out on the roads
Tonight

I had a terrible dream
But it was only a dream
So don't worry about me
