+ Gold
Look what the sea washed in
I don’t want to see my face again
The water has turned to mud
These days I’ve been so fucked up
All for the love of gold
And we are the brave
when there’s nothing to be scared of
And we are the saved
when there’s nothing here to tempt us
‘O like the love of gold
A mermaid but they don’t believe
She stole me away from my destiny
But under the waves a man can’t breathe,
and what will they do without me to lead
ah, la, la, la, la, la, la
I don’t want to be a captain no more
ah, la, la, la, la, la, la,
and I don’t want to be a monster
But I’m afraid that I have been both
‘O all for the love of gold
all for the love of gold
Now look what the sea washed in
Tell their wives and their children I’m sorry
You’ll never see my face again,
and I’ll never see no gold

+ STEREO
Don't touch that dial
There's something you should know
My love for you is in stereo
‘n you own the airwaves over me
if you would only believe
You touch my soul
That’s somethin’ you should know
who made you sick of the radio
everyone has their cross to keep
but here in my arms you’re safe to sleep
In stereo
So, don’t touch that dial
unless it’s as loud as it will go
And don’t touch me unless you’re in stereo
Louder than love
Louder than love
On your stereo
I don’t wanna let you go
No, I don’t wanna let you go

+ WE WON'T BE BETTER OFF
Don’t say the words that pull me down but give you grace
Doll, whenever you want the earth around me to shake,
the earth around me to shake,
Go on, go on like we’re better off that way
When we go, we’re gone
But won’t be better off
Doll, whenever you want the earth around me to shake,
the earth around me to shake,
Hide your thoughts in a parking lot
somewhere off the interstate
‘n I’ll get as high as the moon
Yeah, we’re better off that way
But you keep lookin’ up at the sky
And I keep staring at the ground
Are we better off that way
Are we better off that way
Doll, whenever you want the earth around me to shake,
the earth around me to shake… it does.

+ O SONG
You don't keep me company,
You all turn out wrong,
If you are my daughters, if you are my sons,
I can only hold you inside for so long,
O song, did I lead you on?
If you are my love, well love what's wrong?
You don't keep me company for near enough long,
I can't feel or touch you, or hold you for long,
O song, are you leading me on?
Friends come in time, and then they are gone,
I know what it's like to be floating along
Without a warm body to heap your cares on,
O on and into the night…
For I have been bad now for twenty years long,
For centuries you have been pure and strong,
If you thought me a good place to stay you were wrong,
O song, did I lead you on?
O song, did I lead you on?
