1. Ride The Sky
Traveling this dark world, leaving light behind
Seeing things I shouldn't see
New eyes I got to find
Mars Venus and stars shaking
their heads at me
No more todays - tonight I'll be riding the sky
Hey world look out I'm coming
Friends pass me by and you saw me humming
Mars Venus and stars shaking
their heads at me
No more todays - tonight I'll be riding the sky
Tonight ride the sky, tonight ride the sky
The smile on his face turn me to stone
The words that he spoke
wouldn't leave me alone
Mars Venus and stars
shaking their heads at me
No more todays tonight I'll be riding the sky
Tonight ride the sky, tonight ride the sky,
Tonight ride the sky
Tonight ride the sky ...
2. In The Time of Job When Mammmon Was A Yippie
In the time of Job when Joseph was a chippy
All the sons of Pharaoh's were kings
The word was passed around
that Mammon was a yippie
And papin had to learn a few things
First there was a light coming out
from Moses
And Abraham was playing the stooge
With pilot on the right and Mary and her roses
Had a reputation to lose
Oh my dozy rosie eyes
Screw me I'm a tuba
Free as a beanstalk
Coogan flipped for, get down on your knees and love,
and love the man
Mary said to Joe there ain't no play
that's easy
You want to see them fall for the tricks
All we got to do is let them take it easy
And make like he's working for kicks
When they know Job got up, the boss is in Ginea
Knew they had a fish on the hook
Went calling all the boys
And sold them the idea
To write the story down in a book
Oh my dozy rosie eyes
Screw me I'm a tuba
Free as a beanstalk
Coogan flipped for, get down on your knees and love,
and love the man
repeat

7. Lucifer's Friend
Fear and fright since yesterday night
The little man knocked at my window
The hour he'd want but he had to run
But he'll be back again
Since yesterday night, I lived in fear of fright
I still hear his voice shouting
through the night
I asked Manny, I asked Sue don't know
what to do
Every hour I cry I don't want to die
Fear is in my brain
Since yesterday night, I lived in fear of fright
I still hear his voice shouting
through the night
Come take my hand I'm Lucifer's friend
Tonight is the end of your way
repeat
Come take my hand I'm Lucifer's friend
Tonight is the end of your way
Take me, take me away, you can have me,
you can take me, you can take me away…
8. Born On the Run
Run through the night
Though the shadows are chasing
Rain and the wind
Beat my face as I go
Keep movin' on
My first time and I'm drownin'
So hard to run
I got no place to go
Frightened to turn
Don't know what's behind me
Fear of the doubt
Keeps my head running wild
Keep movin' on
Through the night that surrounds me
So hard to run
Just a nobody town
* Questions I've asked
All the answers the same
Nobody seems to know why
Raised so wild
I'm too hard to tame
Keep movin' on
Maybe someone will die
Brought up in the dirt
Never heard of good livin'
Folks died young
Preacher told me so
Life is to take
Never heard of givin', no
Born on the run
I got no place to go
* repeat 2 times
