I was living in the garden of Eden          
eating fruit right off the trees
 harmony  on my mind 
Living a life of ease 
God spoke to everyone 
over an intercom
The speakers were in the clouds
and we all lived in a wigwam
We could speak back to him
through a microphone
that was hanging from the ceiling
dangling precariously
between a wishbone

One Morning God spoke to us 
and made a forecast
"You are all getting too fat 
so now you must fast"
Breakfast was skipped 
and no one really cared
It was not until supper
 that people started getting scared
Stomachs were rumbling 
louder than the clouds
we had never gone this long without food
and we thought we would pass out

I went and layed down on a coutch
and started watching the tv
There was some guy on the news digging in the dirt plating pinto beans
He called himself a farmer and he was taking control
Of this situation and he went back to digging his holes

I looked over at my friend
who sat in a recliner
and noticed he was eating 
when I asked him what 
he said " tv dinner"
Maybe he forgot
so I reminded him
"God said not to eat 
until further instructions"
"We dont need God anymore
you simple little man
Now the farmer sells us food
from his Taco Stand"

So I walked down the street
toward the smell of the tacos
I went up to the counter
and ordered 5 bean burritos
tHe kid asked "for here or to go?"
I said that I would stay
he pushed some buttons on the register
and said that'll be $6.50
I had never heard of money before 
so I asked him for his boss
he looked at me kind of crazy
and told me to go get lost

I was feeling very weak by now
so I went to that microphone
I wanted to talk to God 
and ask if the fast could be postponed
When I spoke I could only hear a faint reply
There was too much noise outside
From the people rushing to work and
from all the cars passing by
So I ran to my nearest lawn
to find  a fruit tree
lots of green grass 
but not a single thing to eat

I sat down on a sidewalk
with a bottle of liquor
People threw some coins at me
but I had no idea what they were
I had a job mopping floors
that lasted for a day
But I had no watch, was late 
and was fired without pay 
So that night I slept in a park
underneath the stars
When a flying saucer came down
from the planet Mars
"Hop in buddy, we've been looking for you",
 the creature said to me
And just like that at the speed of light
we went to another galaxy

I'm An Alien And I Want To Go Home [Awkwrdquan Version]

A - Z [Awkwrdquan Version]

Hippie Valentine [Awkwrdquan Version]

My thoughts are haunting me again
They woke me up this mornin'
I did not want to leave my bed
My thoughts are haunting me again
Like demons they are possessing
I wish they'd let me be

My heart can hardly catch a breath
My life seems like such a mess
since I left you My Princess
My heart can hardly catch a breath
One foot out and one foot in
I need resolution

Grandfather took to drinking
His thoughts must have been haunting
He must have been suffering
So Grandfather took to drinking
And now the whole family
Is still recovering

A Great Force made everything
and I still have my faith
Her Universe is providing
and I still have my faith

Haunting

Please understand 
I'd love to be your man
but I've questions
that need answerin' 
 
there's a trail of dead
behind you
will that be me
when you are through 

I've been broken hearted
in my life
it's time I play my cards right
while there's still time
gotta play my cards right

you have wisdom in your strength 
covered by beauty
when you're around
it's irresistible to me

I've been broken hearted
in my life
it's time I play my cards right
while there's still time
gotta play my cards right

But I have to make sure
before I make this deal
I have to be certain 
that all of this is real

I've been broken hearted
in my life
it's time I play my cards right
while there's still time
gotta play my cards right

because I want a love 
for eternity
I want a fortress 
for well being 

lovers or friends
let's take our time
there's no turning back
once we've crossed that line

Trail Of Dead

Even if I never get to be with you again
I'm Grateful for the time we've had together my friend 
You are the dearest love I have ever known
I love everything about you girl I'm not sure what went wrong

I fell in Love then I fell apart

I really wanted to settle down and make you my wife
I don't want to run from you, but I must get on with my life
I've asked you to take me back and give me another chance
I realize now all the mistakes I've made and the circumstance

A wise man says I should stay in your town and risk it all 
When you need me I'll be there for you to catch you if you fall
He says otherwise I'm running from the fears that I must face 
if I don't I'll be doomed to... repeat them again someday

you make no commitments to me to make me feel alright 
If I saw you with another man then I would surely die
So I feel I must pack my things and drive away
To a place I can call home and be happy again someday

I think the wise man's wrong I have learned from my mistakes
I've learned how to handle love now when it returns someday
I know I will loose myself in  the beginning
I must let go of all the fear and run on trust and faith 

I Fell In Love Then I Fell Apart

come on everybody listen to my story
about this society and working for a living
working for the company the boss made me angry
and then finally I told it
to shove it
I said "goodbye" to my colleagues
and then they wished me 
luck 
on my way 
out in the parking there were hippies
looking to jump start their volkswagen
hippie vans
I said "that's fine under one condition
you let me  tag along in your travels" 

after a week of riding through the country wild and care free
I wondered
about income so I asked someone where we got our food from
and our clothes and food and money
the answered 
"our dad's trust fun" 
those these hippies were independently rich and wealthy
I was not
I rode home
back in the city my stomach was empty
without a degree from the university
lookin' for more
employment

sittin' in the dug out with the other players
then it came 
to my brain 
if you can't be the you gotta join them
if you can't join them 
make your own
grow your own

Hate Job [a.k.a. I Hate My Job]

In California I boarded a plane 
and to Virginia I flew
I wanted to…but I didn’t
get back in touch with you

I still care way too much 
to be communicating
If I found out you have a new love 
it'd be devastating

Happy birthday from afar
wherever you are

if I saw you and it went well
it’d still be confusing 
then I’d fly home wondering 
if we are still a possibility

This Desperado is not riding 
fences anymore
I went crazy for you once in my life 
I don’t have time to do it twice

Happy birthday from afar
wherever you are

[bridge]
It's been awhile since we were friendly 
But I still hope you are happy 
Not enough to make me jealous 
just enough that you’re smiling

If it were my birthday and I had a wish  
I’d come over and visit 
you and fireflies sounds perfect tonight
you and fireflies sounds perfect tonight

Happy birthday from afar
wherever you are
