Somedays You Dont Get To Go Home

A Number of Problems 
V1
God was busy making stuff and something got left out
Not trying to be a punk –just need a way to add it up
Kinda like those letters we make words and talk
Kinda like the legs that help us walk
 
God thought about it a bit and said-I was wondering enough
You’d start tracking your stuff maybe wanna add it up
I’ll give you numbers from one to ten
Number one is a pretty good place to begin
 
V 2
God- I’m a grateful for those numbers that you send           
You were so generous somethings but I got  more than ten                
So god I know your up in heaven 
Any chance we can take this thing to eleven?                       
 
Son, numbers can be all reused, recombined, removed an
Moved around, in many ways more than ten
So in giving you ten numbers  -you see
I kinda gave you infinity?
 
C1 Number of Problems 
      Number of Problems to Solve
      Number of Problems
      Number of Problems
      Number of Problems to Solve

V 3
God – thanks for everything and giving me infinity
But something broke I need a word for something in between
Not quite sure how else to explain
How do we count all the smaller things?
 
Son- I had to thought it a lot - you had me stumped again
I just made a dot—you can put that in between                 
Don’t look like much it seems
you can even use it to count stuff that can’t be seen
 
 C2 Number of Problems 
      Number of Problems to Solve
      Number of Problems
      Number of Problems
      Number of Problems to Solve

V 4
God- what can I say, I ‘m so very grateful hope it’s not rash
you gave me that dot what next you gonna give me a slash  
But sometimes I lose stuff, or I give stuff all away         
can you make something to help memake it that way?              
 
Son- you must be thinking your God is some kinda a hack
Im a gonna double your numbers- just by giving you a dash
But this might be the last time
Infinity, in between and now a minus sign?
 
C3 Number of Problems to solve
     Number of Problems to solve
      Maybe that’s how we evolved
      Number of Problems to solve
V5
God – your my hero for giving me all this stuff
And now I can count it classify but that’s not enuf
Plus and minus and a decimile              
Now I just need a number in the middle               
 
Son –I’m your hero but your making it tough
kinda weird I made a zero hope it’s enuf
So now if you nothing now -if you aint got a lot
at least you know what you’ve got
 
C4 Number of Problems to solve
      Maybe that’s how we evolved
      Number of Problems
      Number of Problems 
      Number of Problems to solve

Glass Ketchup Bottle / There was this dude

never knew me a glass ketchup bottle could fit up there
think I overheard the PA say Dave “He musta worked on up to it"
Daddy leaned his chair to the ER bed
asking why I did yeah what I did

There was this dude
didn't want to be rude
he mighta slipped me something yeah
he was fine and at the time
I remember liking it alright
Dad about time I told ya
Like Gaga I was born this way
hope its okay
There was this dude

folks ask isn't it hard enough being a regular country star
that that living a life on the road you know it wont get you far
U see I met this Vietnames guy in Garland named
Hung of course he was hung like a horse

There was this dude
dang sure was cute
I had to make him mine
he turning me on
we going all night
u be the first I told

hope its okay
there was this dude

didn't know man to man wedding bands  could cost so much
took  six months on the road before I done saved up
invited all my fans they all showed
TMZ was there now the whole world knows

There I am 
Holding the hand 
Of my man in a start a life together grin
Its been 7 months he still fucks me up
Sure enough I know whats love about
Im so outta my mind hes outta this world
There was this dude 4x
