The Man on the Moon

Verse 1:
You always start a show
And I fall asleep
You like to hog the bed
While I steal the sheets
The kitchen light is on
But we forgot to eat
It’s alright
It’s alright

We’re always making plans
Then we change our minds
I forget the date
You forget the time
But somehow babe
It all works out fine
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Verse 2:
Sitting on the porch
Strumming my guitar
While you paint the house
Splashing on the car
We don’t have a clue
Who the neighbors are
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 2:
Cause you say come and hold me tight
And you say everything’s alright

Verse 3:
You call me on the phone
I don’t answer
I never can remember
The password
You never let me get in
The last word
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 2:
Cause you say come and hold me tight
And you say it just feels so right
And you say it’s a lovely life
And you say everything’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Before The Party Has Begun

Verse 1:
Blue light glowing on my face
Best friends online but always out of place
A million likes, but it’s all fake
No one ever sees the gaffes I make

Touchscreens keep talking back to me
They’re saying this ain’t how it’s supposed to be
A billion friends but none are real
Can’t remember how a real touch feels

Pre-Chorus:
Magic phone in my hand
Please help me understand

Chorus:
We’re all alone in a crowd can you hear me now?
All Emojis scream but never make a sound
Scrolling through a pile of frozen smiles
Wanna feel something real that’s not saved in a log file.

Verse 2:
The filter’s on, still I feel so bare
A perfect life, but no one’s there
Video streams and podcast dreams
Never exactly what it seems

Pre-Chorus:
Magic phone in my hand
Please help me understand

Chorus:
We’re all alone in a crowd can you hear me now?
All emojis scream but never make a sound.  
Scrolling through a pile of frozen smiles,  
Wanna feel something real that’s not saved in a log file.

Bridge:
Earbuds go in, nature goes mute
Lying awake in a digital suit
Tapping all my life on a touchscreen grave
Am I really more than just my social username

Chorus:
We’re all alone in a crowd can you hear me now?
All emojis scream but never make a sound.  
Scrolling through a pile of frozen smiles,  
Wanna feel something real that’s not saved in a log file.

All Emojis Scream

Verse 1:
My bleeding heart comes alive when you’re near
Was walking dead inside but then you appeared
You hold my hand, and you give me a smile
You take a walk with me a million miles

Chorus:
The way you love me
The way you love me

Verse 2:
We kiss goodnight when it’s clearly day
You make me laugh in the silliest ways
Your warm embrace pins me in a dogpile 
Just want to lie with you right here for a while

Chorus:
The way you love me
The way you love me

Verse 3:
The coffee pot never gets too cold
Yo get more beautiful as we grow old
When I’m with you I want nothing more
Then to gaze into your eyes, it’s you I adore

Chorus:
The way you love me
The way you love me
The way you love me
The way you love me

Bridge:
How I feel for you, you know that it’s true
Loving you, it’s all I want to do

Chorus:
The way you love me
The way you love me
The way you love me
The way you love me

The Way You Love Me

Left Too Soon

Verse 1:
I waited a lifetime to find
A love that could last for all time
You came and opened the door
Now I don’t need anything more
Cause I found you

Chorus:
I love you more than my life
I love you more than my life

Verse 2:
The way you look into my eyes
I see just what matters in life
Now all my dreams have come true
My world feels like everything’s new
Cause I found you

Chorus 2:
I love you more than my life
My heart surrenders
I love you more than my life
It is my pleasure

I love you more than my life
My heart surrenders
I love you more than my life
It is my pleasure
I give my heart
I give my heart
I give my heart to you

I Love You More Than My Life

Verse 1
Tell me how does it feel
To be somebody real
Someone who feels normal
Really wish I could be
Someone other than me
Could I be so cordial

Cause I never seem to fit

Chorus 1
I don’t know what I’m doing here
I wanna disappear
And hide from all my fears
They’re haunting me
Why can’t I be someone else
Please free me from this shell
Because I don’t feel well
Just being me

Verse 2
Every night every day
Looking for my own way
I don’t know where it’s going
But I feel something shift
In this moment I lift
From the pain I’ve been holding

Now I see a brighter place

Chorus 2
I don’t know what I’m doing here
But it’s becoming clear
That I can face my fears
They’re part of me
I’m learning to be someone else
Better versions of myself
I’m starting to feel well
Just being me

Bridge
Finally ready to go
Where my dreams can grow and grow


Chorus 2
I don’t know what I’m doing here
But it’s becoming clear
That I can face my fears
They’re part of me
I’m learning to be someone else
Better versions of myself
I’m starting to feel well
Just being me

I don’t know what I’m doing here
But it’s becoming clear
That I can face my fears
They’re part of me
I’m learning to be someone else
Better versions of myself
I’m starting to feel well
Just being me

The truth has set me free

I Don’t Know What I’m Doing Here

VERSE 1
Examining the broken mirror in my mind
It looks so bad I really want to cry
My little cuckoo clock is running out of time
The hands are leaving me with two black eyes
Cause they tried to frame me with a silly crime

CHORUS
Because my life’s a little funny
Work hard to get that money
Just to sit and watch it blow away

Dreaming of a sky that’s sunny
A land of milk and honey
Cause I’m too busy to go play

VERSE 2
Counting all the cracks beneath my filthy shoes
Every step I take is feeling like the blues
These city streets are humming tired lullabies
The angels sing along as I try
To keep my broken soul from running dry

CHORUS
Because my life’s a little funny
Work hard to get that money
Just to sit and watch it blow away

Dreaming of a sky that’s sunny
A land of milk and honey
Cause I’m too busy to go play
In heaven now

BRIDGE
I can see the pearly gates are open wide
It would be nice to run through them the day I die
But for now I guess I’ll just go back inside
And fix that broken mirror in my mind

CHORUS
Because my life’s a little funny
Work hard to get that money
Just to sit and watch it blow away

Dreaming of a sky that’s sunny
A land of milk and honey
Cause I’m too busy to go play

Because my life’s a little funny
Work hard to get that money
Just to sit and watch it blow away

Dreaming of a sky that’s sunny
A land of milk and honey
Cause I’m too busy to go play
In heaven now

My Life’s A Little Funny

Here We Are

C. Charles Jones is a twenty-first century singer/songwriter, producer, author and poet who resides in the midwestern region of Springfield, Missouri. 

His 2024 debut album “Blowin’ Smoke” is a raw and immersive dive into a blend of both R&B and jazz-folk that consists of an acoustic guitar, piano, saxophone and bongos, all of which he produced himself. Each track on his debut brings forth a new kind of soft spoken, melancholic sound that revolves around the topics of loneliness, individualism and staying “asleep” inside a culture that is “woke” with songs like “Some People,” “Colors,” “We’re Not on the Same Page,” and his radio-hit “I Feel Like I’ve Been Dead All the While Now.”

Jones was born in Des Moines, Iowa, on August 14, 1996.
