Floatin' in a Barrel

Floatin' down the river
Rockin' side to side
Chillin' in a Barrel
Goin' where the sun don't shine
Can you feel it baby
the rapids getting faster
I hope someone will save me
how long can I last for
OH NO!
There's a hole in the barrel
and I'm starting to sink
we're taking on some water
I don't got long to think
and there's a fish in my barrel
and he's biting at my toes
things are getting scary
man this really blows
OH NO!

Blisterin' Dunes

Drifting in a constant motion, can't you feel the heat wave closing?
wondering in a weary desert, blisterin dunes are quite the splendor
blisterin dunes
WOO! X3
now I approach a shining city
I've been blinded, is this real to me?
deep delusion of a fiery red sun,
blisterin dunes are making me see things
blisterin dunes
WOO! x3

(verse 1)
welcome to the psycho city, we got many games to play
get mugged in the back alley, with no delay
take a step into your local dive bar
be careful what you drink you ain't gonna get to far
(chorus)
sit down, take a load off, we know where you been
does it feel good to be in the city of sin?
suspicious faces lurking high and low
the psycho city's there those feelings flow
(verse 2)
Welcome to the pyscho city hope you're feeling at ease
you can do what you want now, you can do what you please
take a look around be careful what you touch
disease is spreading fast looks like you're out of luck
(chorus)
sit down, take a load off, we know where you been
does it feel good to be in the city of sin?
suspicious faces lurking high and low
the psycho citys there those feelings flow

There's a crisis in Motown
lets try to keep that old sound
you know what I'm talking about
what's lost can still be found
listen baby don't worry
it ain't so hard if you try
singing them sweet song you've been looking for
are closer than you realize
(pre chorus)
no sound like jimmy
no sound like Floyd
no sound like Clapton baby
just some new age noise
(chorus)
(whistling the melody)
(verse 2)
There's a crisis in Motown (oh yeah)
brought with it a new age sound
lacking substance nut it ain't profound
doesn't mean that it should keep you down
listen baby don't worry
it ain't so hard if you try
singing them sweet songs you've been looking for
are closer than you realize
(pre chorus)
no sound like jimmy
no sound like Floyd
no sound like Clapton baby
just some new age noise
(chorus)
