Vodka Tonic 04:23
Got myself on a red-eye Supersonic vodka tonic, please Keep your bail money handy, honey I've got a certified disease Creeping out the back door Creeping down on Bourbon St. They've got me in a car now Shackling my feet Get me to a cash machine I know a palm I've gotta grease Get myself on a red-eye supersonic vodka tonic, please

High and Dry 04:06
Cool, cool, cool in your place You've got nothing but space And a whole lotta time She's got nothing to do At least, nothing with you But you swear that it's fine We're so high, and so dry It's not right, not right Fools in cars, they don't stop Don't they know you're on top? And at the head of the line You're sure that's what the cat meant Right before he got bent And left you high and so dry We're so high, and so dry It's not right, not right

I feel, American today Gonna get a burger, drink a beer And watch TV all day Today I'm a do no wrong, patriot today Raise a flag and shoot my gun Cast a vote for anyone Today Well I feel, American Do you feel, American? Are you proud to be an American today? Of thee I view, America Today Channels 2 through 43 and Oprah is my fave Today Well I feel, American Do you feel, American? Are you proud to be an American today? And I trust the government today Pay my tax and join the corp set my DVR to tape the war Today Well I feel, American Do you feel, American? Are you proud to be an American today? Well I feel, American Did you buy American? Well we sold America today

I get right back up, I'm okay I'm for better times, built for better days And today might suck, I don't care I'm for better times, built for better days Well I'm not one much for believing But I'm still looking for a reason I know that love must be the answer But the question, no one remembers I get right back up, I'm okay I'm for better times, built for better days And today might suck, I don't care I'm for better times, built for better days You know your thoughts are on the level But then the facts are more on a bevel The deck is stacked, the dice are weighted So let the robots have their oasis

Bit by Bit 03:42
Hey baby, won't you give me the time of day Hey baby, won't you tell me what words to say Bit by bit, day by day We'll make work, our own way A little better everyday If the band don't start, we'll sing our song just the same Hum along if you want, there ain't no words anyway Hey baby, won't you give me the time of day Hey baby, won't you tell me what words to say
