An early Honor Among Thieves tune.

Mostly Underground

My baby’s got a pony
Its name is light
I’ve got one too
Can’t sleep at night
My baby’s got two kids
Sleep under her bed
You know I’ve got a traffic light
Growing out of my head
And she thinks it’s a star
And she might be right
I say it’s done with mirrors
Oh God what a night
Sometimes we bring it up
But it’s mostly underground
We speak about the strangest things
How she’s my king and I’m her queen
Sometimes we bring it up
But it’s mostly underground
She does the things she does to me
Her eyes they speak
My hands they see
My baby’s got a racetrack
About forty miles long
I’ve been running for a week now
Must be doing something wrong
My Daddy used to tell me
Set your mind at ease
My baby says the same thing
Just do as you please
But it’s hard to remember
To forget your lines
They’ve been strapped to my back
For the longest time
Sometimes…

Mostly Underground (Club De Wash, October 26th 1985)

A song of limerence performed by Madison, Wisconsin's Honor Among Thieves band at the legendary Club de Wash in 1986. 

Nothing to Lose

Are you lonely?
She was reaching out her hand
Are you lonely?
She said I’ll always understand
Are you lonely?
She said I’m the promised land

And you better come along with me

She said I know you
I’m you oldest friend
I really know you
There’s no reason to pretend 
That I don’t know you
From your beginning to you end

And you better come along with me


She came out of the night
With her eyes like death
I could smell my future all over her breath
There was nothing I do
Nothing I could say
But I was blind for hours 
And I cried for days

I said I love you
It was pouring out like rain
I really love you
I was going half insane
You've got got nothing to lose
And a world to gain

And you better come along with me

A live recording of Madison, Wisconsin's Honor Among Thieves band playing at the legendary Club de Wash on December 20th, 1986. 

Fair Share of the Truth

I’ve got fifteen cases of worn out faces
And shoes
You know what I mean
Because I bought them all from you

And I just want to say 
Thanks a lot
But it seems like all that I’ve got
It’s really not fair
I want my share of the truth

People let me ask you
Have you heard the news?
Don’t move
Don’t make a sound 
You’ve got too much to lose

And I just want to say 
Thanks a lot
But it seems like all that I’ve got
It’s really not fair
I want my share of the truth

I’m sitting on a pile of hungry mouths
Singing the Blues
I sealed them up
But the sound still seems to get through

And I just want to say 
Thanks a lot
But it seems like all that I’ve got
It’s really not fair
I want my share of the truth
