"Powdernose"
(Hoshaw)
Who in the bar needs a drink?
The barkeep is high and the drinks are cheap
I wonder what our moms would think
If they knew we were here drowning our teeth
So we’ll drink one for the bartender two for me
Three for the girl caught staring
For all my friends there are lines of coke
We’ve got nowhere to go
Who in the bar needs a drink?
I’ve still got my legs but I can’t feel my cheeks
I wonder what Jesus would think
If He caught us alone with Powdernose
So we’ll drink one for the bartender two for me
Three for the girl caught staring
For all my friends there are lines of coke
We’ve got nowhere to go
So we’ll drink one for the bartender two for me
Three for the girl caught staring
For all my friends there are lines of coke
We’ve got nowhere to go

"Jackie's Bar"
(Hoshaw)
Waking on a street in Harlem
On a pillow made of problems I can’t defeat
I never made it across the river
I wanted to lay beside you down in Queens
But I get so lost without you
So lost without you
I get so lost without my queen
As soon as I passed the car was
I thought of us in the shower, just last week
And the harder I tried to please you
The more you just tried to leave me on my knees
But I get so lost without you
So lost without you
I get so lost without my queen
So I’ll sleep in Jackie’s Bar tonight
Where the spirits dance across my eyes
And the barkeep’s a good friend of mine
So I’ll sleep in Jackie’s Bar tonight

"Overflowed Gutters"
(Hoshaw)
Lordy Lordy where has my love gone?
She hopped the train to Spain to escape the pending rain
Tell me tell me how could she have known?
She caught those looming clouds at the corner of the town
And now it rains down
These Overflowed gutters are causing me trouble
There’s no way out, Out of this water
And I float out
Through overflowed doorways that once held my father
And I’m dragged down into this water
Lordy Lordy where has my joy gone?
Swirling down the drain
At the corner of 1st & Main
Tell me tell me when will I move on
As soon as all has dried and the sun decides to rise
For now it rains down
These Overflowed gutters are causing me trouble
There’s no way out, Out of this water
And I float out
Through overflowed doorways that once held my father
And I’m dragged down into this water

"Gone in a Minute"
(Hoshaw)
You were right, I was wrong
Words are bombs they ignite
But I’ll be gone in a minute
I’ll be gone in a minute
There’s nothing wrong with a little weight
Hairy legs or a weathered face
I’ll be gone in a minute
I’ll be gone in a minute
You were wrong to think I was kind
I’d apologize if I had the time
I’ll be gone in a minute
I’ll be gone in a minute
It may take a little chance
Letting go of our little romance
I’ll be gone in a minute
I’ll be gone in a minute

Coma

|

"Coma"
(Hoshaw)
I wasn’t angry
I didn’t know what I was feeling
I live in a coma
Outside my bed
They must have been joking
Said that I could get to heaven
And they’d show me the real love
I have never had
I learned back in grade school
Never to show never to tell
Those kids can be so cruel
When you’re by yourself
They must have been joking
Said that I could get to Heaven
And they’d show me the real love
I have never had

"Face of Man"
(Hoshaw)
Mama always said, leave those bad girls alone
For the baggage that they bring
can never give you a home
And the hate that they spread
will bleed you to the bone
For the girl… don’t
Mama always said don’t trust them to lead
For the demon that you fear
is the angel you sleep with
And that father you had
wasn’t always agreed
For they tear the Face of Man
Mama always prayed for me
but I guess it wasn’t enough
For my life has been hell
and I fake all the luck
But the women I keep,
they sure like to fuck
And they make me feel like a man
Yeah they make me feel like a man

Carpenter

"Carpenter"
(Hoshaw)
Hand me my hammer I’ll be a carpenter for you
I’ll build you that bedroom
with the perfect northern view
Where we’ll sleep in on Sundays
and we’ll put their prayers to use
Hand me my hammer let’s get to work
You pick the colors
while I tape off the room
And I’ll give you kisses
till you find your shade of blue
Then we’ll head to the city
and we’ll grab a can or two
Hand me my hammer let’s get to work
You can decorate girly
with what Grandma left for you
Cause you make me feel manly
when we’re making love
Then we’ll fall asleep soundly
by that perfect northern view
Hand me my hammer let’s get to work
Hand me my hammer let’s get to work

Another Man

"Another Man"
(Hoshaw)
Another man has fallen at your feet
Ain’t he sweet?
But do you think he’s a keeper?
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
Another man is waiting at your door
Ooh, what for?
I know you find him boring
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
Cause I’ve been a drunken man far too long
to speak so clear
So if you don’t find me at the bar
Try home my dear
But I’m just a simple man
With pockets full of pain
But I got a friend downtown
that can make it go away
If I can get enough change
Another man is laying in your bed
You loved him bad
But then you left him snoring
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
You’re gonna tear it all apart.
What’cha gonna do with that heart?
What’cha gonna do with that heart?

"Prayers"
(Hoshaw)
Oh my my
How am I gonna sleep tonight?
Oh my
How am I gonna sleep tonight?
With my neighbor on the lawn
Shouting prayers
To someone up there
I just don’t care
To be holy
Oh my my
Oh my my
How am I gonna sleep tonight?
Oh my
How am I gonna sleep tonight?
With my neighbor
Shouting prayers
To someone up there
I just don’t care
To be holy
Oh my my
How am I gonna sleep tonight?
Oh my
How am I gonna sleep tonight?
With my neighbor out on the lawn
Shouting prayers
To someone God up there
I just don’t care
To be holy

"Blue Bicycle"
(Hoshaw)
Blue Blue Bicycle
Will you ride away with me?
We’ll hit all those ice cream shops
And the places with memories
But we will not dally there
No I wouldn’t dare
Blue Blue Bicycle
Will you ride away with me?
Blue Blue Bicycle
Will you ride the winds with me?
We’ll stop by those apple trees
Where my lover and I would meet
We’ll put our fingers to the carvings
And we’ll feel out our names
Blue Blue Bicycle
Will you take me away?
Will you take me away?
Will you take me away?
Will you take me away?
