Lyrics

Leaf Day Boys It’s leaf day boys In the back of the yard Gotta put your head…down You got the grief from the girls From the night before You get the runaround It’s the daydream noise in the back of your head Left ya holding the bag And the plan for tonight Is to try it again And get away with it A Saturday chore Is cold water Thrown on the fire Of a hopeful Friday heist Go in for the score Like a good marauder Much to admire So much to sacrifice So it’s leaf day boys In the back of the yard Going to be a long one And the thief of this time Gonna make you think hard Get the dirty work… done A Saturday chore Is cold water Thrown on the fire Of a hopeful Friday heist Go in for the score Like a good marauder Much to admire So much to sacrifice Yeah yeah Break the glass Take the jewel From the fool Who would lower His guard Yeah! yeah! yeah! uh! uh! It’s leaf day boys In the back of the yard Gotta put your head…down You got the grief from the girls From the night before You get the runaround A Saturday chore Is cold water Thrown on the fire Of a hopeful Friday heist Go in for the score Like a good marauder Much to admire So much to sacrifice Yeah yeah It’s leaf day, boys!

Still I gotta spin the bottle Kick the can down the road Gotta keep my hand on the throttle Keep on going with the flow words and music by Marc Teamaker ©2021 Hole In the Sun Oh look what they’ve done They put a hole in the sun The warmth has been turned down It’s colder than cold now But the bill has gone up I Have a hole in my head From what has been said Your stomach’s been shot through ‘Cause the moonshine they sold you Is all full of lead Hungover and lost I walked out to the frost And you know it’s bad enough The days are getting shorter And on top of that We get the high hat From charlatan fiends Who’ve stolen our dreams In short order Oh see what they do They try to tell you it’s true That he is a bad man While they steal all your freedom From right under you Hungover and lost I walked out to the frost And you know it’s bad enough The days are getting shorter And on top of that We get the high hat From charlatan fiends Who’ve stolen our dreams In short order Oh look what they’ve done They put a hole in the sun The warmth has been turned down It’s colder than cold now But the bill has gone up Words and Music by Marc Teamaker ©2021 Been a Long Time Been a long time that I’ve been Living without your love Stayed inside and outside Of this push and shove And being in this city ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be When you’re not here with me Now they’re trying to take away Our heart and soul Freedom’s in decline As they take more control And being in this life Aint all that it’s cracked up to be If you’re not here with me. The fall is coming It’s a long long long way down To my winter coat I bow And the plows are lying in wait But for now I’ll just pour a cup And think of all the days, love When I was in your warm arms With the fire ablaze. Been a long time that I’ve been Living without your love Stayed inside and outside Of this push and shove And being in this city ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be When you’re not here with me If I can make it to spring That would be a thing of beauty And this cold goes right Through me Autumn is on us The brilliant colors jog the memory A reminder to stock up And get me at least to the summer days But for now I’ll just pour another one Think of all the nights When I was in your warm arms With the fire ablaze Been a long time that I’ve been Living without your love Stayed inside and outside Of this push and shove And being in this city ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be When you’re not here with me Been a long time that I’ve been Living without your love Stayed inside and outside Of the push and shove And being in this town ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be When you’re not here with me Now they’re trying to take away Our heart and soul Freedom’s in decline As they take more control And being in this life ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be If you’re not here with me. Been a long time that I’ve been Living without your love Stayed inside and outside Of the push and shove And being in this town ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be When you’re not here with me It’s been a long time without your love, child I stayed inside and outside Stayed inside And being in this life ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be When you’re not here with me.

Light Years
I miss my lover
Sweet Kathleen
She was my summer
She was my dream
Going home
Going home
Just like my mother
Sweet Marie
She was my comfort
She was my steam
Going home
Going home
Waiting patiently. Oh oh oh
For a lightyear
Wading through the tears Oh oh oh
For the light years
Again
I hear a quiver in that voice again
Telling me that she will be
Coming ‘round the bend
Going home
Going home
Waiting patiently
For a light year
Wading through the tears
To find the light years
Again.
Now there’s blind faith in my eyes
As I watch the way time flies
Slow motion birds
In the sky
I miss my lover
Sweet Kathleen
She was my summer
She was my dream
Going home
Going home
Going home
Going home
Going home

Daisy

Summer Com Save Me

What a day
What a car breaking down day
I move so fast
To get nowhere

Half a year
Stuck inside
A racing mind
And gears that won’t unwind

Summer come save me
Ninety days and ninety nights
Summer come and rescue me
I need a little slow time
Just trying to survive

Work so hard
Not to snap
Like David’s slingshot
Pulled way back

Surprise attack
Gives you a start
Don’t jump the gun
Don’t put the course before the heart

Summer come save me
Ninety days and ninety nights
Summer come and rescue me
I need a little slow time
Just trying to survive

I ride the waves
The radio dial I switch around
I’m hoping that soon
The perfect song I’ll stumble on
I’ll stumble on

Summer come save me
Ninety days and ninety nights
Summer come and rescue me
I need a little slow time
Just trying to survive

Time Is Just A Sham

Always knew I’d know you
Saw you on the road
The one that leads to summer
The one that leads to hope
Got the spring to wind us up
Into a high above
The speed of fools
The ticking scope

Let’s go, go, go
Let’s take each other slow
I know, know, know
If time won’t lend a hand
Then time is just a sham

The flights are coming in
The night is getting thin
We won’t give in to sleep
We won’t be pushed around by that thief
We’ll hold it off
Barricade the door
Steal another day or more

Let’s go, go, go
Let’s take each other slow
I know, know, know
That time won’t run us down
‘Cause time is just a clown

All the little mornings
A secret to the sun
We’ll keep it from them
All the little mornings
Lining up like planes
Going down in flames

Let’s go, go, go
Let’s take each other slow
I know, know, know
That time won’t run us down

Let’s go, go, go
Let’s take each other slow
I know, know, know
If time won’t lend a hand
Then time is just a sham

Always knew I’d know you
Saw you on the road
The one that leads to summer
The one that leads to hope
Let’s
Go go go

Skinny Wrist

Put it on your skinny wrist
Golden bracelet
I wanna kiss it
I wanna swirl it ‘round tonight

Put it on your skinny wrist

Oh your summer skin
Tastes so salty yeah!
You wouldn’t fault
For taking a bite

Oh the warmest wind
Is swirling around us
I think it has found us
Catching a wave

Oh your summer skin
Tastes so salty yeah!
You wouldn’t fault
For taking a bite bite bite bite bite bite baby

Put it on your skinny wrist

Man and Woman

Go man and woman
Gotta get up and live again
Stop lying down for everything
Pull down your veil and
I really want to see your face again
Stop hiding in that world you’re in

Since when would you give away
The right to think of anything?
And if this is judgement day
It’s not time to blink
Or shrink away
Hold your ground
No backing down

Go man and woman
Gotta get up and live again
Stop lying down for everything
Pull down your veil and
I really want to see your smile again
Stop hiding in that cell you’re in

And why would you genuflect
To those who give you no respect?
As if it were judgement day
And you were bad
And meant to pay
Just hold your ground
Don’t back down

I’m gonna listen to that holy man
I won’t turn away from him again
And that woman who would hold my hand
I love her like no other.

Go man and woman
Gotta get up and live again
Stop lying down for everything
Pull down your veil and
I really want to see your smile again
Quit hiding in that cell you’re in

I’m gonna listen to that holy man
I won’t turn away from him again
And that woman who would hold my hand
I love her like no other.

Go man and woman
Gotta get up and live again
Stop lying down for everything
Pull down your veil and
I really want to see your face again
Quit hiding in that world you’re in

Go man and woman
Go man and woman
Go man and woman
Go man and woman
