This old man, he plays one on one He was your cool whip master, you were his B.C. son This old man He's got the smell of sin He's got the nature of sin He was your actual, factual old sin nature Mother praying, 'Jesus save the boy, Save him from the old man.' Got away Glory, Glory Up from the water, out of the grave Wearing a new man's clothes The old man's dragging the lake again lately What does he want? Mama, you don't suppose... This old man, he don't mind the gap He's like a subway rat He's crawling out of your past Out of the dark Little land shark Little predator scavenger Serving up sucker punch Flyweight, gonna eat your lunch This old man, he's flicking on the brights He's wanting squatter's rights He's gotta have his space in your face Get you reminsicing for the very years you wasted Every bitter fruit you tasted Gonna snare you in a stare-down Better to choke than breathe in your curse This old man, this old man Better to crawl than to ride in your hearse This old man, he plays seek and destroy He comes robbing my joy He's here spreading the rot Old man, don't you get it? What I've got's as good as gold Good as gold Better than gold

I got a dash-mount compass that won't direct I got a "get rich" guru that calls collect I got a psychic adviser saying "Get a lifeguard -- I'm gettin' bad vibes off of your deal-a-meal card" Tell me why their words ring hollow Lead the way and I will follow If You can lead me out of this maze I got shrinks that send me to victim class I got talk show show-offs giving me gas I got assertiveness trainers yelling "Shove, shove, shove" I got no one teaching me how to love love The more I chew the less I swallow Lead the way and I will follow Follow Your footsteps through this maze Up we struggle, down we slide Scared to call on a bigger guide I'm tired of getting snowed, speed the plow Lead the way, Lord Jesus, I'm ready now

I wake up in the sunshine Not a cloud is in the sky This state of mine starts Pouring down A thorn within my mind And I don't know why I feel this way Psalmist with a blues harp Knew about the darkest blues He said his soul was downcast Lord I feel the same way too Won't you tell me Why I feel this way This way When I look in the mirror I tell myself I'm feeling alright This deep soul depression Dark whispers in my ear Feel alright Tonight Medicate to insulate Might change a thing or two But lord just can't shake this feeling I'm crying out to you Deep is calling deeper Did you forget the one you knew My prayers are weighed In anguish Still I put my hope in you

Once upon a time in churches of old The velcro age had yet to unfold Flannel was king and Sunday School knew How to make those Bible heroes stick like glue How to make 'em stick with you Flannelgraph lions, mounted and mean The prophet Daniel in between Head toward heaven, sturdy and true A man of God who did not fear the gods of men He didn't fear the lions' den Every age at every stage Lions rage Pray, stand your ground They'll lie down Dumb struck, I was shaken and stirred He wouldn't kowtow, he kept God's word Teacher said, "Son, this could be you If you put your trust in God and not the praise of men You won't fear the lions' den" Chorus And if we play by lions' rules We start lionizing fools God wrote the book, he'll fortify And like the eagles we will fly We're gonna fly Late one night in a fever dream The prophet Daniel came to me "Sir," I said, "I've lost my nerve I lip serve God and put my faith in Godless men I fear the lions' den" Then he said, "Who says I'm not a feline-phobe? Who says I wasn't ready to wet my robe? Faith is tough, boy, but God gives grace So take deep breath, head up, set your face like flint And stop being a wimp"

Sometimes it gets so thick in here," she said Clearing the plates from another power lunch Then she laughed at herself and told me what was good No ring, no coy disguise, but world-weary innocence in her eyes Said, "Every false move you make will be withstood" "Lies, like rust, decay Is your heart that way? Vows, like prayers, are heard Are you gonna keep your word? And when in time I pledged heart and soul She said, "Love is patient But you must know that feelings come and go Like these sainted patrons" Lies, like rust, decay Is your heart that way? And good intentions are no guarantee, just look at me Are you gonna keep your word?" When the seige begins When the thieves break in Will you stand your ground? And when you fight the wars on foreign soil Will I rest assured? Are you gonna keep your word? And as we watch our children sleep I take her hand, I feel her ring I have been faithful, but I know my heart is not above deceit Lies, like rust, decay Is your heart that way? Vows, like prayers, are heard Will I keep my word? Lies, little lies come back to haunt you like petty fraud Vows are made forever before God And I will always keep my word to you

We're welcomed With indifference To the dark rooms of your mind The meter's running Time to see the world Through your troubled eyes Another tortured genius screams So you've tried everything? You don't include the leap of faith That might take you off your throne You've got one thing left to do You've got one thing left to do Don dark glasses Fire the masses Could this be Messiah envy? No rules Big plan Curse God Curse man Fed like junkies Poisoned I.V.s Cold sweat like warm blood Flowing down your anger mask That double-cross you hear Weighs you toward the fall Charmed to meet you Why the crowd? Misfit angst Is well-endowed these days With a touch of show-biz And sacrilege on call You've got one thing left to do You've got one thing left to do Know-alls No show Some crawl I know God's still calling You're still stalling Dead from dry rot Soul sleep Blood clot Face it You've got One thing left to do Appointed in this life A single choice for everyman It's time to choose You've got one thing left to do

For 24 years I've lived this life In 24 hours I'll leave this life Powder flash As the earth gave way Crimson blooms On my coat of gray The light grows dark as I awake Angels dance my soul to take I hear them say Take the hand of the Father As he leads you to the land Of no tomorrow Take the hand of the Father As he leads you to the land Of no more sorrows Mama I'll miss your tender care Daddy I hope I'll see you there I tried so hard to do what's right The time has come To give up this fight Lord I hear your still small voice In a childhood vow I made my choice I hear you say

Tried to find myself Instead I found a stowaway Technicolor realm A supersonic holiday When the drink has lost its fizz Like a dog returns to his Drowning in the ebb and flow Shove that conscience back Can't afford an overload Reaching up too high We fell away Reaching for a sun ray It happened in the sixties It happens today Psychedelic runaway Runaway Smack strap flashback truth Little Jackie's got a bluish grin Face that empty tomb In vein she tries to fill it in Looking up too high She fell away Reaching for a sun ray It happened in the sixties It happens today Psychedelic runaway Runaway You don't understand You won't You can't grasp the plan You won't Looking up too high You fell away Reaching for a sun ray It happened in the sixties It happens today Psychedelic runaway Feathers started melting As you flew the skies Searching for the undefined What happened in the sixties Still happens today Psychedelic runaway Runaway

Once I was alone Some mistakes in my past Had left me living on my own My only prayer Was the fate of my past I wondered if you were still there I was hiding in the shadowlands Scared to admit I was a broken man Now I'm missing you Every thought every word everything Leads me back to you Can you forgive me Just a touch of your hand And I'll know that your love is true I surrender all I've kept from you Lord I'll do anything to be with you Reach out your hand Lift me up from this place I have fallen Lift me up Reach out your hand Lift me up from this place I have fallen Lift me up Lift me And I surrender all I am to you Lord I'll do anything to be with you Reach out your hand Lift me up from this place I have fallen Lift me up Reach out your hand Lift me up from this place I have fallen Lift me up Lift me up Lift me up Lift me

There's a light in the evening By the house with a window As she sleeps I hear the ticking of the clock When the cool of the morning Brings a hush to the shadow In the hall There's a skylight to the dark Hush Baby don't you cry And I will sing a lullaby And I can see I've been away too long Dusting out the closet by the stairs When the door swinging open Bring her smile to the window In the sky I see a hundred angels there Hush Baby don't you cry And I will sing a lullaby
