The Ballad of Old Red Hare 04:07
lyrics
buy track
When I first met Red he wasn't red at all seemed everyone knew him by name he's that guy in the back keepin the beat at every single jam No matter who got up with talent or not Red just kept good times never hear him speak he'd just keep the beat at every single jam Let's drink the first one it won't be the last one a toast to our good friend Red Hare soft spoken cerebral a Ryder Lake regal we won't hear congas no more.......... from our good friend Red Hare He was a quiet man but he said alot kept close to him all of his cards when he did pipe up his wit would trump all aces with so few words When his battery was fading no chance of saving a Red Hare bash one last time he made our lives richer and painted some pictures memories more fine than his wine Let's drink the first one it won't be the last one a toast to our good friend Red Hare soft spoken cerebral a Ryder Lake regal we won't hear congas no more.......... When I first met Red he wasn't red at all time had made him grey but that name just stuck I'll consider it luck to meet him in those final days Let's drink the first one it won't be the last one a toast to our good friend Red Hare soft spoken cerebral a Ryder Lake regal we won't hear congas no more.......... from our good friend Red Hare

Bottom of the Sea 03:29
lyrics

I never knew someone like her sweet sweet lines on her for sure you transformed my world blew me away with all hopes gone astray we'll sail away I never knew someone like her a long lost treasure washed ashore you adorned my world blue skies today with all hopes gone astray we'll sail away i don't even know if I could ever live a day without you i don't even know if I would ever survive a day without you but I know that everything I own is on my boat and we're headin out to see I never knew someone like her we sailed away our sights obscured then the storm it came and blew us all away with all hopes gone astray we'll drift away I never lost someone like her her hull resting on the ocean floor then the mourning came and I'd have to say with all hopes gone astray I'll drift away i don't even know if I could ever live a day without you i don't even know if I would ever survive a day without you but I know that everything I own is on my boat at the Bottom of the Sea

Wounded Ear 03:38

Wounded Ear I hit the ice with a blackened eye it was the first game of the season A few shots on net I was feelin fine, first shift saw me cruisin’ On the ice again ready to score soft passes i was feedin got a stick in the head I couldn’t play no more I was off the ice.................I was bleedin Start of the game too near “You need stitches” said my dear Pass me that can of beer , I just lost half my ear All sewn up but not for long 2nd game of the season As I streak into the offensive zone down the wing see me speedin A pass from our “D” had flown too high the play he was misreadin’ Hit me in the mouth as I glided by, yet again I was bleeding Start of the game too near “You need stitches” said my dear “This one’s lookin quite severe” even worse than my wounded ear A few days off back at it again the wounds they were still healing I got a call from Hope I say I’m in black cloud on the horizon and in the finals I met one tough guy butt end to my mouth left me reeling lost my teeth and i can’t deny it’s been one hell of a season Start of the game too near “You need stitches” said my dear “This one’s lookin quite severe” even worse than my wounded ear Start of the game too near Aagh fuck my biggest fear far worse than the wounded ear........my front teeth just disappeared

Toxic Bagel 03:38
lyrics

Toxic Bagel Are You Ready? Ready and Able WIlling, Able, Ready, Steady and Stable You can’t stop it it’s been enabled like lightning in a bottle of optic cables Ya gotta get on up x 3 to get down with the Toxic Bagel It might seem crazy but never fatal come alive and move to the groove of the Toxic Bagel Ya can’t fight it a real distraction a rhythmic figment of your imagination Ya gotta get on up x 3 to get down with the Toxic Bagel Not everyone is doing it and that just makes me sad all those other dance moves are just a passing fad I never liked the Macarena the Jitterbug is past it’s prime Bye Bye to Mash Potato, Toxic Bagel now’s the time............... Are You Ready? Ready and Able WIlling, Able, Ready, Steady and Stable Well let’s flaunt it Shake the navel Go with the flow and the glow of the Toxic Bagel Ya gotta get on up x 3 to get down with the Toxic Bagel
