Mr. Quagmire oh it seems that your slightly lucid dreams leave your feet stuck in a rather muddy swamp Can you walk the other way Step outside your normal day You are just so due for some auspicious romp You're not getting very far now, Mr. Quagmire Your legs are moving fast but the world is spinning past Don't you know that you been down this road before ? and the last 10 times didn't go so well, for sure Mr Quagmire, I maintain there is quicksand in your brain you just nevah learn from all of your mistakes I would love to watch you budge from your same decisive drudge Oh what a difference all this changing makes You're not getting very far now, Mr. Quagmire Your legs are moving fast but the world is spinning past Don't you know that you been down this road before ? and the last 10 times didn't go so well, for sure Mr Quagmire, wipe your slate You are captain of your fate but you always are inclined to dig a ditch There's a place that you've never been Time to look underneath your skin to determine how to better scratch your itch You're not getting very far now, Mr. Quagmire Your legs are moving fast but the world is spinning past Don't you know that you been down this road before ? and the last 10 times didn't go so well, for sure

Stolen time is the best time You didn't see it comin and you feel so sorry for the ones that never got to feel this way Stolen time is the best time like opening a present and getting the toy you really wanted but never thought you'd get to see and when it's over you're left in the bubble of a moment that happened just right It's no wonder you don't want to say it out loud Stolen time comes in your window oh when you least expect it You seem to be feeling like you're losin, but hey you are a lucky boy Stolen time you want to keep it and hold it very closely the big blue sky and the trees are the only ones who'll ever know and you'll be floating long after she exits and tomorrow is not far away Life won't falter as long as that girl comes around

Tonight I found myself Crawlin’ cross the floor for you Well, tell me baby did I do right by you In the naked glare of your big spotlight You’ve got me feelin’ things I never knew This is my first time Will I remember, will I forget? It wasn't yours I guess Could you tell? Tonight I found myself Open, locking eyes with you Well, did I make you feel it down inside Did I convince you that I had blue eyes As everything you wanted became true Could you tell? Tonight I found myself Such a filthy girl for you You make me shudder in my innocence You make me, make me so intense You make me shudder in my innocence then you corrupt me and it's so intense Just teach me baby, I’ll do better too. This is my first time Will I remember, will I forget? It wasn't yours I guess Could you tell? Tonight I found myself Such a lazy girl for you You make me shudder in my innocence then you corrupt me and it's so intense Just teach me baby you didn't see me there, did you ? Could you tell, could you tell this was my first time in the naked glare of your big spotlight

He is the only one who can possibly deal with you when you feel like this It's a delicate tightrope walk and he's a nimble acrobat Her eyes are changing colors and his world is spinning round Your mood is up and down like a faulty thermostat Moodswing baby Moodswing baby Moodswing baby You turn the moment upside down Moodswing baby Moodswing baby Moodswing baby You turn his feelings all around when you hit the ground, nothing can compare when you hit the ground, feelin' kind of rare when you hit the ground, he wants to be there for you just for you He is the only one who can possibly turn your head when you are gone He's been to all your worlds, he's a supple alien One must always anticipate that you might trip the light He gives you everything, can't disappoint you Moodswing baby Moodswing baby Moodswing baby You change the colors of the sky Moodswing baby Moodswing baby Moodswing baby The seasons change and you don't know why Make the stars zoom by, he'll shield you from the glare Make the moon less high, you still won't care Any place in your mind, he'll wanna be there for you just for you Lover baby (oo oo oo oo ooh) Lover baby (ooh - oo oo oo ooh) Experiencing anguish is not his idea of fun but it seems that you can't live without adventure He's your guy cause he is clearly looser than the rest but there's something soulful underneath your changing He loves his Moodswing baby Moodswing baby Moodswing baby You turn the moment upside down Moodswing baby Moodswing baby Moodswing baby Mixed feelings go around Make the stars zoom by, he'll shield you from the glare Make the moon less high, you just won't care Any place in your mind, he'll wanna be there for you just for you

In the sky, there is a comet A collision is expected She was only contradictions He was nothing if not constant At a point there was a magnet too powerful not to mention His feet stood up on their own She went along, but not without tension Oh she was his great admirer He found himself surrounded She wanted to take care of him It seemed their hearts were poundin' What was it that was happening? when they stepped into the fire They were dancing into the truth but they kept looking over their shoulders Then they got bolder (bolder) It seems they couldn't stop themselves from spending all that time They both suspected this was wrong but love, it ain't a crime The last thing you expected was a beam across the ocean that could not be deflected from the girl who paid attention Next time you looked up she had captured your devotion They were dancing into the truth but they kept looking over their shoulders Then they got bolder (bolder) It seems they couldn't stop themselves from spending all that time They both suspected this was wrong but love, it ain't a crime They were dancing into the truth and couldn't stop the momentum of what they sorely needed Now nothing could prevent em from thinking bout each other over the dark and thru the light However did it come to this However did it come to this However did it come to this? it happened overnight They were dancing into the truth but they kept looking over their shoulders Then they got bolder (bolder) It seems they couldn't stop themselves from spending all that time They both suspected this was wrong but love, love, love, it ain't a crime They were dancing into the truth but they kept looking over their shoulders then they got bolder

Painful niceties stick in my craw Painful niceties I think I'm hitting the wall I think it's time to change my life make sure you're not in it You can call me a loser but I've already been it for puttin up with all your lies no one would believe it My dignity has long capsized how am I gonna retrieve it? Painful niceties Painful niceties wouldn't be wearing my shoes Painful niceties now I got nothing to lose I think it's time to run like hell away from all the constiction you tied me down and held me back, you strangled my faith and conviction I used to have integrity, I used to sleep well in my bed but while I tie myself to you, my future's officially dead Painful niceties Rome wasn't built in a day Painful niceties they're soon to be going away Painful niceties Painful niceties

When the rocks are brittle and the mud is dry, the cruel yellow sun becomes a red sky and that dull grass town, there's no movement at all not a twitch of life until night falls Through the white molded windows just traces of light Computer monitors on thru the night And all the lifeblood being shared I mean being given away The hopes and dreams of another day The days are like weeks, the years are a blur But the dogs are all howling, now something's astir As long as the spirit of what should've been Appears out of nowhere to take one last spin Through a town called Won't Matter, down a street called Long Gone There's a guy who feels something, it ain't drugs that he's on It's a moment in time when he started to live An impending explosion oh something must give And the voice of god and the last rock hope They're tryin' to hang him but they ran out of rope And past guitar legends come back from the dead To play so inspired that the world turns its head And what started with whispers will end up so loud in the city called Never will gather a crowd No it won't be too long til that town is awake You can feel the ground moving, it's the Year of the Snake And the mojo magnet and the future of rock and the king of sustain will to everyone's shock be the ones who will rise from the dry desert sand To shine like a nova cause no one else can There's a guy who feels something, they're tellin' him he's wrong But it's gonna turn out he was right all along And the ones who denied them in the hot sun they'll bake It's gonna all come down in the Year of the Snake And the voice of god and the last rock hope They've been tryin' to hang him but they ran out of rope And past guitar legends come back from the dead To play so inspired that the world turns its head And what started with whispers will end up so loud in the city called Never, they will gather a crowd No it won't be too long til that town is awake You can feel the ground moving, it's the Year of the Snake

With the world collapsing and a mighty wave crashing I was in some corner with you When I should've been reeling all I was feeling was love that was long overdue I would've been dying, debris was just flying it went past my head and just shattered and the apocalypse came as I sought your lips focused on only what mattered With the world collapsing and a mighty wave crashin' I was in some corner with you When I should have been reeling all I was feeling was a love that was long overdue I would have been dyin', debris was flyin' as it went past my head and just shattered An apocalypse came as you shouted out my name and we focused on the only thing that mattered Oooh I continued to thrust in the chaos and dust as you opened your moment to me It felt like nature or more than that, fate your appearance that set my soul free As long as love has got a hold we feel no pain, no heat or cold The clocks will stop and we won't grow old we'll just go on and on The end of the universe had been no worse than a little flea bite on my arm cause we were inside a hot air balloon ride over mountains away from harm Every day is a peak and all that we seek is more time together to waste It seems we are one with the moon and the sun As the earth came apart I gave you my heart (gave you my heart) and we just embraced As long as love has got a hold we feel no pain, no heat or cold The clocks will stop and we won't grow old we'll just go on and on (In the midst of the rubble I stayed in our bubble and somehow did not feel a thing except for your magic, it coulda been tragic but I wasn't even looking) and on and on, and on and on Oooh you let yourself go and your lava would flow down the mountains and into the clear I watched the smoke rise, you looked into my eyes and they melted and started to tear As long as love has got a hold we feel no pain, no heat or cold The clocks will stop and we won't grow old we'll just go on and on (We were clinging together to rise thru the nether as thunder was sent to destroy It's hard to imagine the scene of this tragedy just could not alter such joy) and on and on and on and on

Hair is greyin' and my branch is swayin' I got nothing left to give Standing here as I disappear This world ain't about me any more I got lost in the car exhaust I got nothin' left to give I been tryin', it ain't gratifyin' when you don't know what you're doin' it for you don't know what you're doin' it for There's an edge for steppin' off right now If you cannot see the sun from the path on which you run just get off it you're finally done Ain't no glory to your hard luck story You've got nothing left to give Each page turned is a lesson learned the print is just too small for your eyes You got trailed by some hungry whale You've got nothing left to give No control in your small dark hole This world is deaf to all your futile cries There's an edge for steppin' off right now If you cannot see the sun from the path on which you run just get off it you're finally done

When morning seems to tell you it will be a banner day unseasonably warm but such a breeze will come your way There's not a hint of trouble left to linger as it does and clearly you have moved beyond the state of what it was Now everything's alright At last you can sleep at night The World changed from dull to bright in a moment You barely recognize your life, it's come around so far An unfamiliar feeling where you know just who you are A caravan of centeredness is traipsing round the bend You know that you'll be ready for the sun that beckons then Now it's time, experience this moment You have no excuse to not breathe free There's plenty more where that one came from Have what you want, yours for the taking When magic comes it's often suddenly Now the world is turning, can't you see the moving clouds The wind blows thru the maple and one bird is singing loud Can it be that you're exactly where you might belong In between the sacred halls of nature and a song
