COTTON MATHER - COTTON IS KING
LOST MY MOTTO
D C G D
She's on the payroll of the Vatican Bank,
D
But she works in an American book store and her husband is the Byzantine type,
D C D
I asked her what she had to do at St Mike's
D C D C D
She said "I came here trying to remember something but I'm only in it now for the wine"
Em F C G A
Her daddy doesn't run the store and what's more he gets no confession from me
Am E F Am E F
I Lost My Motto, I Lost My Motto
She expects no optical illusions from me, not that she doesn't give me plenty to witness
It's just I don't know how to part the red sea
I don't want to be in his morality play, he thinks that marriage is a good institution
So let him find a girl to keep it that way
It might make it better that he's bad to her but I don't know what's happened to my boundaries
I Lost My Motto, I Lost My Motto, I Lost My Motto
And I don't think this is an issue with god
When it comes to the law I wouldn't think I'm a purist
You cant break something that doesn't work anymore
And now I'm seeing my life like a tourist
We took a taxi to a their summer retreat, we changed the locks and the points of access
We didn't go to the front door for a week
I found a volume by the side of their bed, I said "I've read it I'm awaiting the sequel"
She gave me "Under The Volcano" instead
And said "Now what was that you lost?" and I said "not too much just my fortune cookie"
I Lost My Motto, I Lost My Motto
MR SHOULD
You'd think that everything would fall apart, if you only listened to your heart
I beg take a chance
It's a pain explaining everything to you, in the hopes that we can make it through
The filter of your experience and are you proud of that invention?
Are you running from the good life Mr Should?
Are you struggling just to get by Mr Should?
And if you'd rather only survive Mr Should
Better luck next life Mr Should
You could make a beautiful thing be true, if you let her get close to you
Be once the boy and twice the man
How could you think she wasn't quite what you deserved?
It's like your sentenced and determined to serve
But that girl could be your escape plan and do you love incarceration?
Chorus
And everybody has the right to decide how to make a miserable affair of their lives
As if waking up wasn't enough of a fight
You had to go and chose the wrong girl
But pretty soon you started letting us down
By overlooking all the love you'd found
I don't think I'll be sticking around this is not an infinite world
Mr Should, It'd be nice to see you when you have time
But don't hold your breath I'm not holding mine
Maybe you'll get lucky and I'll blow you a kiss
You should think a little more about how things exist
I think there's something you must have missed
Its nothing that you're gonna find on one of your lists
Chorus
Mr Should Mr Should Mr Should
CROSS THE RUBICON
G
Call me and tell me you've just understood
G E7
The town you've been living in till now is pretty but not good
G
I've sold some secrets but I've kept a few
G E7
And I've rolled up the best into a big new valentine for you
C Am E7
I don't know how you're gonna get there but I'm here to help you start
G A
Look into your heart and cross the rubicon
Look into your heart and cross the rubicon
Em EmM7
Your ancient rivers out there and I think its time for you to cross
And I think its time for you to cross
Cause I cant stand you anymore
A
In fact, I'm a little beyond bored
B Em
I don't want to change everything about you
B Em
What I'm asking for is slight
C
The way some things look a whole lot different
B7
When you tip them towards the light
I don't care what your wise friends say, decisions are dark and sometimes
You've got to take them shaking
You cant go back, this road is one way, its time to rethink the way you think
And maybe not by thinking
I cant put my finger on it but I know where we can start
G A
Look into your heart and cross the rubicon
Look into your heart and cross the rubicon
PAYDAY
Anna likes her Saturdays left alone does her wash unplugs the phone
And Daniel's a descendant of a distant king would that that mean anything
He's not a man of means
Newspaper that they open wide, shows them the world tipped on its side
Payday, and your moneys all that matters now
You're complaining that you don't know how
You put up with this job
And you're bound to leave soon
Payday, you're a little bit less than yourself
When you're a payday for somebody else
Anna and Daniel got married, of course, turned to drink and got divorced
And meanwhile the news from the world got worse
All their daydreams in reverse at least they still had work
And back at work they still love you, so why does this still feel like your interview
Chorus
Its hard to imagine if someone could freeze you here today
You'd be remembered this way
They don't have a future but they do have a wage
Cause a jobs not one of those things that gets better with age
Chorus
MISS INFORMATION
Bad manners, bad grammar if I could find the door I would run
I'm just listening to Miss Information
She's so pretty she wants a date with me and now I cant get her to shut up
I'm just listening to Miss Information
Miss Information doesn't know my real name
Miss Information have you no shame?
She's a mystic, a writer and critic, ooh she must have read a book once
I'm just listening to Miss Information
Miss Information doesn't know my real name
Miss Information have you no shame?
I've got something to say but she says out of my way there cant be room here for both of us
I'm just listening to Miss Information
IVANHOE
She saw that boy fall down on one knee
Eyeing his lady like a figurine
He came from some lost century
She runs from the house
And he starts to cry
Saddles a pogo and begins to ride
He says "I might have bigger fish to fry"
It goes without saying
Who'll be hungry tonight
There's a brand new whole in his favourite armchair
In love with a girl he'll never know like a man dropped down
From a different dimension Ivanhoe
Back at his house speaking French with the cart
