Beta Girls Go

“version creep” is all she said
as she stared at her feet on the edge of the bed

“data drift” as she stood in the door
“we just don’t vector anymore.”

counting the holes in the ceiling tile
analyze the sex, index and file

measure the angle of the afternoon sun
measure the darkness when it is done

beta girls come and beta girls go
leave not a mark upon his soul
beta girls beta girls beta girls beta girls go

pools of light and soul-black night
17 at first daylight

silent complex cleaning crew
wait to shave until they’re through

she gets to work just by noon
takes her laptop to the old break room

he trys not to look when he has to walk by
but as he closes the door he hears her cry

All I Need Is the Sun

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

All I Need Is the Sun

looking for my place in the sun
ah but everything is pretty much gone
a bottle in a bag and a bun
now all I need is the sun

– caviar and champagne are fun
limos and callgirls the run
but those cocaine days are done
now all I need is the sun

kingdoms and palaces galore
yachts and planes for sure
diamonds and oilfields and mines
yet I traded them all for this wine

(I’ve spent a) million times what you’ll ever own
(I had) 40 people answerin’ my phone
You– you’d never get through… yet now
here I am drinkin with you

13th Bar Blues

Thirteenth Bar Blues
Sept 1, 1991 (C) 1991 TK MAJOR

It was the thirteenth day
of the thirteenth month
The clock on the wall
had just struck 13 o’clock
It was the thirteenth bar
on the thirteenth block
I had me twelve beers
and ordered one more for luck

13th bar blues x 4

Thirtteen nightsticks
and thirteen cops
thirteen minutes
of gettin beat up
13 bones broke
in 13 ways
the judge said
Son, I’ll give you 13 hundred Dollars
or 13 days…

Mountains Come, Mountains Go

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

Mountains come and mountains go

Mountains come and mountains go
but a love like ours will surely show
the stars themselves to be a fling
I’ve seen the End of Time
It’s no big thing

The ocean deep is just a pond
I throw my coat for you to walk upon
The waves are tears that mist my eyes
The mighty wind is
just your sleepy sigh

When I sing to you the angels sing along
and yet I know theres something wrong
The sky above is in your eyes
and I know that means
you’re lying on the ground

The sirens freeze my blood is cold
suddenly the world’s just too damn old
the future fading in your eyes
time and space collapse
in one last sigh

This Perfect Day

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

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…

His or Mine

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

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

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

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

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

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

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

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
