When he walks in the room, it's Dr. Thunder and he's well groomed. Hey now baby where can we go? We can cruise in my camaro. It's your turn to roll a Doobie Netflix chill and watch a movie What did he say? What did he do? Was he talking talking jawing blabbering on and acting cray Was he talking to you? Was he TALKING SMACK SMACKING BUTTS BUTTIN HEADS GETTING KICKED Out of the place We can go play some Atari Let's go look at a Ferrari I can smell you had some tacos We should stop and get some Cheetos

Moonlight 05:31
Looks like it's all coming together There's not much else we can say Looks like we're gonna see some better weather And in this moonlight I feel Quite Ok Can we stay here til the morning? Or at least until this song ends? Grass on our backs staring up at the sky Endless moonlight It took five years to finally get here Holding on So patiently Now all I wanna do lay back and stare At this moonlight, shining for you and me Endless Moonlight Looks like it's all coming together

Fly 08:40
She stole my heart right off your sleeve and shattered it like glass Used the broken pieces to stab you in the back Tried to give her everything but you find hat’s not enough So easy to fall in love, hard to get back up You gotta fly You gotta fly away Zooming out you’re seeing all he did was hold you back Nothing's gonna stop you, your train’s chuggin’ down its track I guess it's not surprising, it was written on the walls Now he says he wants you back, you’re not gonna fall You gotta fly You gotta fly away Like an eagle screachin’ above the mountains A million miles but who's counting Or a 747 soaring Happy thoughts straight on til morning You gotta fly You gotta fly away Like an eagle screachin’ above the mountains A million miles but who's counting Like a 747 soaring Happy thoughts straight on til morning You know you got no fear inside you Nothing can stop or ever touch you I think it's time you finally spread your wings

You say you're gonna go, you're about to hit the road Gonna hop a train, gonna sail away Off to chase a dream, burn like a laser beam Float around on clouds, never looking down You never need a net, you never will forget The lessons you have learned from all the people you have burned But all that you are can shine like a million stars And I know you gotta go, you're about to hit the road But when the train track ends and you need a friend Did you know my dear that I'm not going anywhere And I’m sure you will survive when I look into your eyes Everything will be alright. Everything will be just fine So go and do your thing, go on and yank that string Swing for the fence and spend all your cents And if you run out and you need more, well you know who to call When the train track ends and you need a friend? But if you change your mind, you can come home with me tonight I got a pocket full of thrills and a five dollar bottle of wine You can stay as long as you like, even forever would be just fine All you gotta do is change your mind All you gotta do is change your mind

She’s the best thing that's happened to me She reminds me of the girl from my dreams I think we'll make an unbeatable team I just want to make her mine The way she’s smiling is driving me wild She’d bring you hot sauce if you ordered mild She is the candy store and I'm but a child I just want to make her mine Just wanna make her mine I love her all the time She makes my gray skies blue So while I have the chance I'll ask her for this dance, and say, “Baby, I love you” Sometimes I wonder why she even chose me If she’s an A-Plus, I'm barely a C (maybe a D!) I better buy a ring 'fore she starts running I just want to make her mine

Just a Dream 06:05
awaken to the shore of the horizon there's funny creatures everywhere and some look scary but don't look there then two beautiful eyes fix upon mine and tell me all i want to know i look at the sky and can't help but think how high will she go? it was just a dream, what did it mean? it was just a dream, but did it just seem that way? visions that play with my mind and emotions like a whisper in a crowded room sweep the ceiling with a broom then two beautiful eyes fix upon mine and tell me all i want to know i look at the sky and can't help but think how high will she go? it was just a dream, what did it mean? it was just a dream, but did it just seem that way?
