You tell me that you've got everything you want
And your bird can sing
But you don't get me, you don't get me
You say you've seen seven wonders and your bird is green
But you can't see me, you can't see me
When your prized possessions start to weigh you down
Look in my direction, I'll be round, I'll be round
When your bird is broken will it bring you down
You may be awoken, I'll be round, I'll be round
You tell me that you've heard every sound there is
And your bird can swing
But you can't hear me, you can't hear me

Big city noise disappears
Sucker punch is in your heart
The light is reason, light is clue
My shape is shapeless in your suit
Chrome red eyeballs reflect and roll
A simple sun is slowly sinking
Roman shoes and pretty hats
Glitter bombs that beat the beat
You roam the night 'cause you're a cruiser
You never get enough
When you're cruisin' down the street
And takin' off the heat
When you're on the moonlight run
Cruiser, cruiser
Floating jets and big vignettes
Get the treatment grab a cab
Set aside the screaming fish
Tell the world why you're so glad
Flip the switches, pull the plug
You always wait for better news
You need a hit, you need a slug
You don't easily get amused
You roam the night 'cause you're a cruiser
You never get enough
When you're cruisin' down the street
And you're takin' off the heat
When you're on the moonlight run
(Cruiser)
Well, you're a cruiser
(Cruiser)
Cruiser, cruiser, cruiser

It takes a fast car lady to lead a double life
It takes a slow star lady if you want to do it twice
You take your backseat rumble
Take your front seat wife
Takes a fast car lady to lead a double life
It takes a light foot lady to lead a double life
It takes a good book maybe if you want to do it nice
When you idle at the stop light you better get the signal right
Light foot lady, you need a double life
Well, lift me from the wonder maze
Alienation is the craze
And it's all gonna happen to you
You think it's a phase
And it's all gonna happen to you
When you drive in the haze
It takes a freeway lady to lead a double life
It takes some leeway lady if you want to do it twice
Neon blinking on the street
Everyone is bittersweet
Freeway lady, you lead a double life
Well, lift me from the wonder maze
Alienation is the craze
And it's all gonna happen to you
You think it's a phase
And it's all gonna happen to you
When you drive in the haze
It's all gonna happen to you
(It's all gonna happen to you)
That's right I said
And it's all gonna happen to you
That's right well
Gonna? say it to you
(It's all gonna happen to you)
Well that's right oh?
It's all gonna happen to you, well
I said it's all gonna happen to you yeah
Gonna tell ya again, I said
(It's all gonna happen to you) well...

who's gonna pay attention
to your dreams
who's gonna plug their ears

Climbing up the tower
Just a boy and his computer
I'm still in my bathrobe
Hiding in the shadows
I'm not used to losing
Bye, bye, sugar blue eyes
Go home with the angels
Thank you for being so kind
I'm holding on and I don't want to let you go
Yeah it feels like summer
Yeah it feels like summer to me
Yeah it feels like summer
Yeah it feels like summer to me
And she was a lover to me, to me, to me, to me
Which way is the graveyard?
I'm an iceberg with a warm heart
I'm spiritual, not religious
I'm a Libra, if it matters
Shattered by an email
Your words will fade away
Castle built in the sand
Will only last one day
I'm holding on and I don't want to let you go
Yeah it feels like summer
Yeah it feels like summer to me
Yeah it feels like summer
Yeah it feels like summer
Yeah it feels like summer to me
Yeah it feels like summer
And she was a lover to me
June bride, shine so bright
Flowers in her hair, but it just ain't right
June bride, shine so bright
Flowers in her hair, we look good together, oh yeah
We look good together, oh yeah
Yeah it feels like summer
Yeah it feels like summer to me
Yeah it feels like summer
And she was a lover to me
Let me see the smile, stay with me awhile
I cried for you, you were the song in my life
Let me see the smile, stay with me awhile
I cry for you, you were the song in my life

let the good times roll
let them knock you around
let the good times roll
let them make you a clown
let them leave you up in the air
let them brush your rock and roll hair
let the good times roll
let the good times roll
let the good times roll
let the stories be cold
they can say what they want
let the photos be old
let them show what they want
if the illusion is real
let them give you a ride
if they got thunder appeal
let them be on your side

You might have forgot
The journey ends
You tied your knots
You made your friends
You left the scene
Without a trace
One hand on the ground
One hand in space
You passed on mercy
You tried the rest
You gave your body
You gave the best
Staring at the green door
Living in the sky
You don't want to know it
You just want to fly
Hello again
I know you're a dreamer
Who's under the gun
I know you're a dreamer
Who's only just begun
And when there's nothing
Nothing left to loose
You leave it all
To fade to blue
You want to feel electric
You want to feel loose
You want to be eclectic
You want to call a truce
Look at the profile
Staring at the flame
Waiting for the sunshine
Standing in the rain

I'm not the one
That you'll be shootin' for
I'm not the one
Who's coming back for more
(You know why)
We've been through this so many times
(You know why)
It's never clear it's pantomime
Goin' 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round
Never lettin' down
I'm not the one
Whose memory you still keepin'
I'm not the one
Who's talkin' in your sleep
(You know why)
I don't have to tell you twice
(You know why)
Knew you when you weren't so nice
Goin' 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round
Never touchin' down
I'm not the one
That you'll be breakin' in
And I'm not the one
That you'll be takin' in
(You know why)
Tried and tried to crack the shell
(You know why)
When you fake it's hard to tell
Goin' 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round
('Round and 'round)
Goin' 'round and 'round
('Round and 'round and 'round and 'round)
Goin' 'round and 'round
('Cause you can't get on your feet)
('Round and 'round)
(Still takin' all the heat)
('Round and 'round)

When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (float up stream)
Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me
Leave me where I am - I'm only sleeping
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed
Till they find there's no need (there's no need)
Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time
Lying there and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for a sleepy feeling...
Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (float up stream)
Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me
Leave me where I am - I'm only sleeping

One too many times I fell over you
Once in a shadow I finally grew
And once in a night I dreamed you were there
I cancelled my flight from going nowhere
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
One too many times I twisted the gate
When I was crazy I thought you were great
I kept my renditions of you on the wall
Where holiday romance is nothing at all
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
You wait in the wing like a Saturday flirt
Protecting the judge, you don't want to get hurt
Once in a moment it all comes to you
As soon as you get it you want something new
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
It's all I can do
To keep waiting for you
It's all I can do

I don't mind you comin' here
And wastin' all my time
'Cause when you're standin' oh so near
I kinda lose my mind, yeah
It's not the perfume that you wear
It's not the ribbons in your hair
I don't mind you comin' here
And wastin' all my time
[Chorus:]
I guess you're just what I needed
(Just what I needed)
I needed someone to feed
I guess you're just what I needed
(Just what I needed)
I needed someone to bleed
I don't mind you hangin' out
And talkin' in your sleep
It doesn't matter where you've been
As long as it was deep, yeah
You always knew to wear it well and
You look so fancy I can tell
I don't mind you hangin' out
And talkin' in your sleep
[Chorus]
I don't mind you comin' here
And wastin' all my time
'Cause when you're standin' oh so near
I kinda lose my mind, yeah
It's not the perfume that you wear
It's not the ribbons in your hair
I don't mind you comin' here
And wastin' all my time

Summer, it turns me upside down
Summer, summer, summer
It's like a merry go round
I see you under the midnight
All shackles and bows
High shoes with the cleats a clickin'
A tempermental glow
Oh, don't you let me go
Oh, I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you tonight
Oh, I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you (I got a hold on you)
I'll check
(Oh oh it's magic) when I'm with you (oh oh it's magic)
(Oh oh it's magic) just a little magic
You know it's true
I gotta hold on you
Oh, twisted under sideways down
I know you're getting twisted
And you can't calm down
I see you under the midnight
Love darts in your eyes
How far can you take it?
'Till you realize
There's magic in your eyes
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you tonight
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
(I got a hold on you) yeah, yeah, uh
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Oh oh, when I'm with you
(Oh oh, it's magic) (Oh oh, it's magic)
Just a little bit of the magic
Pulls me through
I got a hold on you
I've got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
(I got a hold on you)
Lets try, it's magic
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Oh oh, it's magic
When I'm with you (oh oh, it's magic)
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Just a little bit of magic inside of you (Oh oh, it's magic)
(Oh oh, it's magic)
Just a little bit of magic
That's true, when I'm with you
(Oh oh, it's magic)
(It gotta be magic)
Your magic pulls me through
Oh oh, it's magic
(Oh oh, it's magic)

you're always dancing down the street
with your suede blue eyes
and every new boy that you meet
he doesn't know the real surprise
here she comes again
when she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
she'll make you flip
here she comes again
when she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
you kinda like the way she dips
she's my best friend's girl
she's my best friend's girl
and she used to be mine
you've got your nuclear boots
and your drip dry glove
and when you bite your lip
it's some reaction to love

Since you're gone
The nights are gettin' strange
Since you're gone
Well, nothing's makin' any sense
Since you're gone
I stumbled in the shade
Since you're gone
Everything's in perfect tense, well
I can't help it
When you fall apart
And I can't help it
Guess you better start
That is forgettin' about you (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Nights are gettin' strange (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Thrownin' it all away (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
The nights are gettin' strange (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Thrownin' it all away

Everything's a mess
I can't help it
You're so treacherous
When it comes, to tenderness
(Since you're gone)
I can't help it
Everything's a mess
I can't help it
You're so treacherous
Oh, where's that tenderness?
(Since you're gone)
Since you're gone
I missed the peak sensation
(Since you're gone)
Since you're gone
I took the big vacation
(Since you're gone)
Well, never feel sedate
(Since you're gone)
Well, the moonlight ain't so great
(Since you're gone)
Since you're gone
(Since you're gone)
Well, I've thrown it all away (since you're gone)
When the night
(Since you're gone)
Strange
I've thrown it all away (since you're gone)
Well, since you're gone (since you're gone)
Since you're gone
Since you're gone (since you're gone)

They kick white shadows until they play dead
They want to crack your crossword smile

I don't care what they say
I'm gonna keep it anyway
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg
With the little white specks
I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine all mine
You won't take it away
Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
I'll bet what they want to see
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg
With the little white specks
I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine all mine
They won't take it away
Oh gol-durn, what can I do?
The little black egg's gonna tell on you
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg
With the little white specks
My little black egg
My little black egg

Oh well uh, you might think I'm crazy
To hang around with you
Or maybe you think I'm lucky
To have somethin' to do
But I think that you're wild
Inside me is some child
You might think I'm foolish
Or maybe it's untrue
(You might think I'm crazy)
You might think I'm crazy
(All I want is you)
All I want is you
You might think it's hysterical
But I know when you're weak
You think you're in the movies
And everything's so deep
But I think that you're wild
When you flash that fragile smile
You might think it's foolish
What you put me through
(You might think I'm crazy)
You might think I'm crazy
(All I want is you)
All I want is you
And it was hard so hard to take
(So hard to take)
(There's no escape)
There's no escape
Without a scrape
(Without a scrape)
But you kept it going till the sun fell down
You kept it going
Oh well uh, you might think I'm delirious
The way I run you down
But somewhere sometimes
When you're curious
I'll be back around
Oh, I think that you're wild
And so uniquely styled
You might think it's foolish
This chancy rendezvous
(You might think I'm crazy)
You might think I'm crazy
(All I want is you)
All I want is you, aoo
All I want is you

'Cause you're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
I need you tonight
I need you tonight
I don't care if you use me again
I don't care if you abuse me again
You can make me I don't care
And you can fake me I don't care
And you can love me just about anywhere
It's alright
'Cause you're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
I need you tonight
I said, I need you tonight
I don't want to feel sorry for you
You don't have to make believe it's you
You can pump me I don't care
You can bump me I don't care
You can love me just about anywhere
It's alright

Michael William Andersen Los Angeles, California
There was a Professional Rock Band in San Francisco in the Seventies. I had met Larry Hanson in about 1973 in Salt Lake City and he showed me how to play Rock Music. I thought I heard him on the radio with Styx after coming home from his house one day. I bought decent equipment in 2003 and made these recordings because the UofU demanded pay. They have called me Totally Permanently Disabled. ... more
