In the Jackpot

Now if I win the lottery
Would you take a test to see
and if it’s disappointing
would you call it symmetry?
In the lottery In the jackpot
If you win a day with me
And I turn out not like what you think
If it all ends here
Would you call it entropy?
In the lottery In the jackpot
In the lottery In the dunk tank
I got time by my side
And I got things I still want to hide
The wind makes you yourself again
It blows you back from your old friends
It might be hard it might feel strange
To see how much just stays the same

Heartbreaker You

Oh you heartbreaker you
Oh you heartbreaker you
What did you do? Was it true?
No one knew
You saw the lines in my hand
You tried not to look back
But we heard the crash and you woke up
I didn't hurt my hand but it wasn’t bad
Sometimes things come in the mail
Don’t disregard what it says
Just breathe instead and let the shit
Get blown away Let it blow away
Once I had time on my hands
Now I can’t get it back
You heard the crash in your sleep
And it woke you up but you couldn’t call
Only hurt my hand but it wasn’t bad

Nothing but Trouble

One piece of the puzzle
One piece of the pie
You’re nothing but trouble
Yes, but what am I?
All a misunderstanding
Motives never revealed
The officers started recruiting
The minute the files were sealed
Whenever they saw injustice
They knew it was nothing complex
They felt their way to an answer
Beyond the cause and effect
One more piece of the puzzle
One more piece of the pie
You’re nothing but trouble
Yes and so am I

Martin Sheen

I know you think I’m mean but just like Martin Sheen
Is trying to find a way to rise above the everyday
When he hears hard rain in his head
He should be sleeping but instead
Fights with mirrors in his eyes
As Robert Kennedy he saved the world for me
I got to stay up late because of daylight savings time
My mother told me to believe the brothers could have made the world
A catholic paradise
I saw him once in Spain I had to look again
He nodded back at me and threw some money in my case
I was thinking that if I broke my leg I would be absolved
Of all the things I had to learn
Well he kept walking with his wife and I kept singing someone’s song
Holy week between parades
