SUCK-TALKIN JACK
Slick talkin' Jack don't mind bein' slack
And if you flash a smile,
He will smile too
And if you wouldn't mind he wouldn't mind
To spend some time to stick around
To steal a little more from you.

But she's — got a funny way of knowing
And she's — got a funny way to care
And she let him know in an instant,
Just how little that she's there.

Slick ... Look at him talk back
And given 1, then he'll want 2
And if you drop a dime
He will be the 1st in line
To stick around, to take a little more from you.

S. T. J. — slowly turnin' back
Thinkin' now: "Oh what will I do?"
But given time, he'll be back,
Feelin' fine, to stick around,
To steal a little more from you.

— She's there —

JUST FOR LITTLE
So hey there
So say there — you with the short brown hair
All glowing and knowing
Your bare midriff is showing

With all I've seen and all I'd heard,
I should let you pass without a word.

But hey there
So say there — why should I even care?
They're jaded and lazy
And I like your kind of crazy.

But with all I'd seen
And all I'd heard,
How did I even say a word?
But now I see that they were all so wrong.

And what do they know about you anyway?

GARBAGE-TRUCK
Don't talk dirty now
Gimme a kiss
I'm already lost & I don't need
All those things in the past
All those things in the past
And down the drain.

He thought he was luckiest the 1st time 'round
And he thought he was luckiest the 1st time 'round
But he's stuck,
And surrounding's looking so unfamiliar
So bring on — garbage-truck.

I can hold but I can be good
And I'd prefer if you would
There's a memory back in these nerves
And my lazy toes lil' like there's humanity.

He thought he was luckiest the 3rd time 'round
3rd match struck
And all those heads still looking
Too familiar
I don't wanna move to town on a garbage-truck.

YOUR SUNSHINE
I hear your pretty voice
It makes words wanna mean
All I wanna feel like is just a small sign, OK?

I feel a smile, it makes me kinda nervous
I get grabbed by what could mean
I've got numb toes and dreaming never goes away.

Oh — put your sunshine in my way.

I floated over every acre of this country
Saw it all in beautiful dream
Saw it all go —
All the greys tossed — away.

I knew this girl who lived across the street
I thought of visiting wherever I'd go
But she dared me — away,
And it scared me — away.

Oh — put your sunshine in my way.

WATCHIN YOU
I see you shining up the street
And I see you smilin' at your feet — yeah
You got a feeling — a feeling all the time...

I'd follow but I can't stand watchin' you.

I see you playin' all the boys
And I see you playin' with that knife
You think my heart is gonna break...

I'd follow but I can't stand watchin' you.
