In keeping in somewhat of a tradition I dedicate this song to not only Cultus Lake, but to Jasmine, and all who saw her off today...
Wiped out down the stairs
I'll bet you there's a song in there
I'm not sure I'm prepared to write it down
That guy should be me
I'd look much better on t.v.
Then the world would see
That I can do anything
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
Let's play tic tac toe
I'll play X, you can be the O.
Thoughts of turning pro
Have crossed my mind
I could make a mint
Fill my pockets with more than lint
I'll give you a hint
It involves the "internet"
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
Don't write me off as an also ran
Just mark me down as an angry man
Got a big chip, you want a fat lip?
How 'bout a mouthful of Chiclets?
Life passed me by, but it's not my fault
I'll lick my wounds, could you pass the salt?
I can be that, but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
If I were the king
All my subjects they would dance and sing
They could kiss my ring
And kiss my ass
When I'm old and grey
I'll look back on my life and say
"Give me one more day,
And I'll still never do anything."
I can be that
but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything

Walk On
This One Is For Jasmine...
And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage that you can bring
Love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind...
And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong
Walk on, walk on
What you got, they can't steal it
No, they can't even feel it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight
You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed, to be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly, for freedom
Walk on, walk on
What you got, they can't deny it
Can't sell it, or buy it
Walk on, walk on
You stay safe tonight
And I know it aches
And your heart, it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on...
Walk on...
Home...
Hard to know what it is, if you never had one
Home... I can't say where it is, but I know I'm going
Home...
That's where the hurt is...
And I know it aches
And your heart, it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on...
Leave it behind
You got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you feel
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you sense
All that you scheme
All you dress-up
All that you've seen
All you create
All that you wreck
All that you hate

Jerk It Out
Wind me up
Put me down
Start me off and watch me go
I'll be running circles around you sooner than you know
A little off center and i'm out of tune
Just kickin this can along the avenue
But i'm alright
Coz it's easy once you know how it's done
You can't stop now
It's already begun
You feel it running through your bones
And you jerk it out
Jerk it out
Shut up
Hush your mouth
Can't you hear you talk to loud?
No I can't hear nothing 'cause I got my head up in the clouds
I bite off anything that I can chew
I'm chasing cars up and down the avenue
But that's ok
Coz it's easy once you know how it's done
You can't stop now
It's already begun
You feel it running through your bones
And you jerk it out
