This Perfect Time
(An Apocalypse Song, Sort of…)

(c)1998 Thomas K. Major
98-01-08

the petals drift through the warm spring air
got my hand in your pocket got my nose in your hair
got my heart on my sleeve and it’s all too clear
that everything i want is all right here

this perfect time this perfect place
a perfect tear slides down your face
It’s such a shame
It’s such a shame…

the rain comes down all night long
and we just lie here until the dawn
the worlds in your eyes and you’re in my arms
everything I wanted right here all along

this perfect time this perfect place…

one last kiss one last sigh
one last wish though you know it’s a lie
One more laugh just to not have to cry:
“I’ll love you baby, til The End of Time

this perfect time this perfect place…

HOW COME U LOVE ME HOW COME U HATE ME

how come you love me
how come you hate me
how come you wont just
leave me alone
did you ever have the notion
you aint gotta monopoply on emotion
honey cant you feel it my pain is real

honey come here put your hand on my heart
theres a world of feelings trapped inside
look in my eyes
and tell me once and for all
honey make yer mind up
are you his or mine

How come you love me
how come you hate me
how come I can’t tell them apart
Where was your conscience
when your mind told your (my) body
to make sure that your soul
had my heart

Sometimes

Sometimes I think about ya
think about, think about
think about the things
I thought I’d do for you

Sometimes I wonder
how you’re doing now
I think about it
but I think it turned out best
when I think it through

I know I let you down
I let you down, I let you down
I let ya down hard
and blamed it all on you

I threw your love away
and I laughed and I laughed
I laughed until I died
and when I came to…

the world — it was dead
and I walked around and I walked around
I walked around the world
but I couldn’t find you

I tore my soul open
it was empty, it was empty
a tunnel into nowhere
and I never got thru

sometimes I think about ya
think about ya, think about ya
think about the world I mighta had with you

Baby, I Just Got the Blues

[Ain’t Nothin Wrong With Me] Baby (I Just Got The Blues)
(C)1998 TK Major

I drive around all night
looking for nothing to do
I play guitrar til dawn
and every song’s about you
–if I sleep I might dream
and we all know that dreams don’t come true

Ain’t nothin wrong with me baby
I just got the blues

walked along the shore
wondering what a smart guy would do
in the Idiot’s Guide to Love
I must be listed in the back under “fool”
sure once I had some answers
…now I’d settle for some lies that sound true

Ain’t nothin wrong with me baby
I just got the blues

It’s easy for you sugar but then
everything’s easy for you
You know what you want
and you know how make it come true
But, it’s hard for me, doll, to
bid all that we had adieu

Ain’t nothin wrong with me baby
I just got the blues

[solo]

[repeat first verse, refrain and out]

Someday Baby

Someday Baby

someday, baby
you’ll be looking down on me
but don’t you ever think I don’t know
what you’re bound to see
it’s just destiny
it’s just got to be
that’s my prophecy

someday, baby
when you’ve got this
whole thing straight
after you contemplate
maybe meditate
you’ll see that it was fate
it had to be this way
besides
it’s all too late

someday, baby
you’ll be laughing in the sun
I can see you with your Only One
and I know that it just has to be
it’s prophecy
it is destiny

someday, baby
this will all be washed away
that’s what the old men say
but it’ll be okay
a million years from today
it’ll end our pain

someday, baby
youll be laughing in the sun
I can see you with your Only One
and you know it just has to be
that’s my prophecy
it is destiny

The Final Score

From the junkies in the Cooper Arms
to the Whores of THIS OLD Shore
I’ve seen the winners
I’ve seen the losers
and I’ve seen the Final Score….

I’ve seen all your tomorrows
and then a couple more
Ive seen the future, I’ve seen the past
I don’t wanna see no more

I’ve seen the fear across their faces
I’ve heard their anguished cries
I’ve felt the void explode within
after the dream dies

I know what’s gonna happen
and I’ll never know what for
but I’ll bet the game begins again
after the Final Score

She’d Be Mine

Posted on by TK Major
Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

Last time I saw her a couple years ago
she was shovin a couple of kids in a white volvo
the sun came down through the eucalyptus trees
it made her hair just glow like it always used to be

just then I wish I could have said the words
that I could never say
cause if I’d told her baby I’ll be yours
she’d be mine today

the pool house the beach house the boat house by the lake
I’ll be damned if I remember a thing
yet everytime I think about holding hands in school
my heart just pounds like it always used to do

right now I wish I could have said the words…

sometimes when I sleep I call her name
a thousand girls have told me so
I threw it all away — now I want it all back
but I know it can never be so
[I know it can never be so]

and right now I wish I could have said the words
that I could never say
cause if I’d told her baby I’ll be yours
she’d be mine today

The Devil’s Quicksand

Posted on by TK Major
Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

(CH) its your second chance for the very last time
with your head in your hands and your future behind
grab your life pull as hard as you can
cause your up to your dick in the devils quicksand (waist, tits, head)

if she told you once it was good advice
but a thousand times now that’s just a slice
of some other reality you’d preferm to ignore
it’s just that easy you shut the door

on the love she gave it was just too good
and you always hated how she understood
and you walked away and you felt so free
in the park that day spinning under the trees

but now its cold and the darkness comes
and the drugs wear off and your chums are scum
and the cyst on your arm is turning green
and the one-eyeds guys sez it’s the worst he’s seen

so you drag your ass to the ER room
and you wait 12 hours while the TV booms
and the little kids and the sobbing man
and the angel of death is right at hand

you just cant wait and you run outside
in the streetlight night you stop and cry
“is this their pain–or is it mine?”
you ask yourself but you knew all the time

[ch] neck

twenty cents is all it takes
but ya drop the dimes cause ya got the shakes
ya try again an ya get ’em in
but the the phone just rings and your gut caves in

your knees give out ya hit the ground
people walking by just step around
ya see the sky you see the rain
ya see your ashes in a bag in a paupers grave

but the phones in your hand and your hanging on
and just before the dark her voice comes on
and ya tell her “baby just one last time”
she doesn’t say nothing you hear her crying
—-
her sobbing lasts for such a long time
you almost forget why your on the line
then it comes back like a drano slam
you got one last chance slip this jam

“come on baby i’m on the bricks”
you can almost hear her kitchen clock tick
“I haven’t done nothin’ in 36 hours
and I need a place to take a shower.”

and then it comes and you know your dead
her hollow laugh fills up your head
she drops the phone and it hits the floor
(y’hear her) walk away and laugh some more

(ch) over your head

V: D C G/C G/C | D C G/C G/C…

[CH]
I know you wonder how I’ll get along
What will the lost boy do — now the smart girl’s gone?
I haven’t seen the world but there’s one that I know
You were just a short short ride — on a long long road…

[1a]
First time I saw you — didn’t know what to do
I tried to catch your eye — but you just came barreling through
all the boys scattered — and the sparks began to fly
I just stood there — you fillin up my mind
[1b]
Don’t know why you chose me — [Guess] I thought that it was fate
The door swung open –I threw my old life away
my hometown in your rearview — my feet on your daddy’s dashboard
Didn’t take long til I saw [just] what I was for

[CH]
I know you wonder how I’ll ever get along…

[2]
From Bakersfield to Fresno — and everywhere in between
Everything was wrong — and everything was all because of me
At the bottom of the hill I said “here will l be fine”
Last time I saw you you was just another grape on the vine

[CH]

you throw them all away
you dont even stop to watch
their paper hearts in the flames
Like a goddess before
the gods learned how to feel
In your universe
your world
