1.
High Head Pressure The alarm clock is broken It won’t ring again Hours go by so slow Don’t want to complain A blood shot mirror Staring back at me And that high head pressure Is really going to blow my mind away Love a living lie A shark tooth grin Another night of fighting War you can’t win The shack has fell I’m burning embers now And that high head pressure Is really going to blow my mind away
2.
SHADOW OF THE SUN Wake up early its time to go For the curtain call of the show A flower laid out for each one All out in the shadow of the sun All of the lines have gone dead All the songs sung all the papers read When did it all come undone? It got lost in the shadow of the sun Where you going to run when the ground starts to quake? Where you going to hide when those buildings start to shake? Where you going to go when the race is done? You can meet me in the shadow of the sun

MACHO MAGICIAN I’m a lord of illusion and a ladies man Women become mesmerized When I move my hands Sweat and gold chains And a puff of smoke People respect the man in the cape For the illusions I can shape I'm a macho magician Watch me pull a rabbit out of a hat I'm a macho magician Watch me cut this woman in half Wrap me up in chains Hang me from a wire Put me in a cage I'll escape the fire Men they wonder how Over the ladies screams When I pull off my trick Nothing is as it seems I'm a macho magician Watch me pull a rabbit out of the hat I'm a macho magician Watch me cut this woman in half

Gravelbed 03:08
GRAVELBED Screaming alcohol And a blood faced rage Try to tame the animal In a four walled cage How can you sleep? Lying in this Gravelbed It’s so cold with the stones Underneath your head Angel with blood red lips Cut those words so cruel It’s a long dark night With no pity for a fool Sweet whispers from a demon Rip it down to the bone Stir up no medicine Just lie there and moan
5.
SICKBOY You threw it away like a needle in the hay And you are burning up so well done Money in the hand couldn’t understand Your mama’s favored son A life so rich living without a hitch Just sit and watch it burn into ash Your old lady gone your guitar in pawn And your best friend stole your stash You’re a sickboy On his medicine Just a sickboy On his medicine Shaking so bad you know you been had As the powders burn through your veins Drinks from the bar crashing the car Living like a dirty blood stain Is it getting clearer that figure in the mirror For death to look you in the eye No one to bail you out there is no doubt That you are serving 10 years to life You’re a sickboy On his medicine Just a sickboy On his medicine
6.
DISCO DEMOLITION NIGHT Hot in the summer July of 79 Discos gonna die lord Down the foul line Get in your seats Time to play ball Oh burning Comiskey It’s Rome after the fall Explosions in the outfield And I’m ready for a fight It’s a rock and roll riot It’s demolition night Sliding down the foul pole And I’m high as a kite It’s a rock and roll riot On demolition night Do you think I’m sexy Made for lovin you Kiss Army Invasion Kids do what they do No Doobie Brothers Ain’t No James Gang All hell broke loose After the big bang
7.
GATOR MCKLUSKY Swamp ain’t no man’s friend When your brother ends up dead Stuck in the state pen Listen to what sissy said Feds give you a deal To bring that sheriff down Wheels got to get moving Burn it to the ground Gator you got to run Sheriff’s on your tail Move that corn liquor on Drive it off the rail Gator you got to move Sheriff’s on your back Move that corn liquor on baby Get moving Take it to the swamp Ain’t no man can follow With Gator at the wheel Moonshine and the money Trying to set a deal Racing a hot V8 Pushing it all it can take Gator cut the corner clean Sheriff is in the lake
8.
Preacher 03:26
PREACHER She wore a red dress to church Looking so fine in the pew She wore a red dress to church Looking so fine in the pew One look into her eyes And there was nothing he could do She whispered to the preacher man Won't you kneel down with me She whispered to the preacher man Won't you kneel down with me That third hand went a pushing Holy roller you know you will believe She ran off with the money And a smile on her face She ran off with the money And a smile on her face Left the preacher man crying Lying in disgrace If it was a Monday It must have been judgment day If it was a Monday It must have been judgment day Lord the devil made that woman Laughing out, he had his say
9.
WINGS OF MADNESS Don't even try to say your sorry That moment has come to pass The voices said you would try But the hour has come at last I'm going to spread my wings And fly right out of here Get above all of the noise And out into the clear This ledge is so comforting The stone cool under my feet Everyone looks so small So high above the street The wind could lift me away Into the sky blue and clear Everything has come to this There is no more fear Spread your wings and fly You threw it all away
