LIKE A STORM
By David Poe © 2010 Charming Martyr Music (BMI.) All rights reserved.
DO YOU STILL REMEMBER
THE WANT TO GET ANYWHERE ELSE,
WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
AND FULL OF POWER,
MOODS THAT SWUNG
ON EVERY HOUR?
YOU'RE STILL GROWING
LIKE A STORM
THERE WILL BE FLOODS
THERE WILL BE FIRE
THERE WILL BE SPRINGTIME
AND ENDLESS SUMMERS
FALLING SNOW
AND DANGEROUS WEATHER
CLOUDS WILL GATHER
LIKE A STORM
SO YOU KEEP TRAVELING
OVER THE FACE OF THE EARTH
CASTING SHADOWS ON LAND AND SEA,
CITIES AND COUNTRIES,
THE PEAKS AND THE VALLEYS,
KNOWING NO BOUNDARIES
LIKE A STORM
COMING

JOY
By David Poe. © 2010 Charming Martyr Music (BMI.) All rights reserved.
TELL A JOKE AND YOU DRINK FOR FREE
PUT THE WORD TO THE MELODY
YOU'RE SO GOOD BUT YOU WANT TO BE BAD
NEVER GONNA BE NEW AGAIN
THERE'S A PRETTY BLUE SKY SOMEWHERE
HIGHWAY TO THE REST OF THE WORLD
TOUCH A STAR AND YOU'RE GONNA GET BURNED
ROCK AND ROLL NEVER LEARNS
IT GIVES YOU JOY
IT GIVES YOU JOY AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
IT GIVES YOU JOY
AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
IF IT GIVES YOU JOY
IF IT GIVES YOU JOY
IF IT GIVES YOU JOY
THEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
ROCK & ROLL NEVER LEARNS
JET LAG IS FOR THE AMATEURS
YOU'RE SO GOOD BUT YOU WANT TO BE BAD
NEVER GONNA BE NEW AGAIN
THERE'S A PRETTY BLUE SKY SOMEWHERE
HIGHWAY TO THE REST OF THE WORLD
TOUCH A STAR AND YOU'RE GONNA GET BURNED
ROCK AND ROLL
IF IT GIVES YOU JOY, IT GIVES YOU JOY
AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
IT GIVES YOU JOY
AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
IT GIVES YOU JOY
IF IT GIVES YOU JOY
IF IT GIVES YOU JOY
THEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT

NOT ENOUGH NIGHT
By David Poe. © 2010 Charming Martyr Music (BMI.) All rights reserved.
THE SKY WAS BEAUTIFUL
ACTUAL STARLIGHT
YOU SAID IT WAS OUR LIGHT
BUT THERE'S
NOT
ENOUGH
NIGHT
TIME
FOR YOU AND ME
NOT ENOUGH NIGHT
NOT ENOUGH NIGHT
CALL ME CRAZY
DON'T YOU WISH IT WERE TRUE
MIGHT EXPLAIN ONE OR TWO
THERE'S
NOT
ENOUGH
NIGHT
TIME
FOR YOU AND ME
NOT ENOUGH NIGHT
NOT ENOUGH NIGHT
NOT ENOUGH
YOU SAID IT WAS OUR LIGHT
BUT THERE'S
NOT
ENOUGH
NIGHT
TIME
FOR YOU AND ME
NOT ENOUGH NIGHT
THERE'S NOT ENOUGH NIGHT
I GO SO HIGH
AND BLAME IT ON THE MOON
WILL YOU COME HOME SOON?

NEW FRIENDS
Written by David Poe ©2010 Charming Martyr Music (BMI.)
NO ONE KNOWS MY HEART GOT BROKEN
AWAY FROM HOME, SO I START AGAIN
I'LL FIND NEW FRIENDS
WHERE EVERYONE SMILES 'CAUSE EVERYONE'S HIGH
AND I FEEL ALRIGHT
MEET MY NEW FRIENDS
NEW FRIENDS
NO ONE IS DANCING YET
NO ONE SLEPT WITH ANYONE
NOTHING I DONE TO REGRET
BUT THE NIGHT IS YOUNG
GROW THE GRASS BENEATH YOUR WHEELS
TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES, GIVE THEM BACK TO GOODWILL
AND PAY THE RENT
RAIN CAME DOWN AND THE PORCH GOT WET
WE SAT ON THE COMICS PAGES
AND LISTENED TO THE SUMMER END
NO ONE IS DANCING YET
NO ONE SLEPT WITH ANYONE
NOTHING I DONE TO REGRET
BUT THE NIGHT IS YOUNG
NEW FRIENDS
I FOUND NEW FRIENDS
NEW FRIENDS
I FOUND NEW FRIENDS
I LIED TO YOU, I LIED TO YOU
I LIED TO YOU THEN
I LIED TO YOU, I LIED TO YOU
I LIED TO YOU AGAIN
NEW FRIENDS
I FOUND NEW FRIENDS
NEW FRIENDS
I FOUND NEW FRIENDS
NO ONE IS DANCING YET
NO ONE SLEPT WITH ANYONE
NOTHING I DONE TO REGRET
BUT THE NIGHT IS YOUNG
IT NEVER ENDS
IT NEVER ENDS
HOPE IT NEVER ENDS

THE ELEPHANT
By David Poe. © 2010 Charming Martyr Music (BMI.) All rights reserved.
YOU ARE FULL OF THE ANIMAL
YOU DRINK THE BLOOD AND WEAR THEIR WOOL
THE PASSIVE CATTLE AND THE LOYAL OX
THEY PLOW THE FIELD FOR ELECTRIC SHOCKS
WARMER BIRDS FLY TO THE SUN
SHOT OUT OF THE SKY BY THE HUNTER'S GUN
THE FRIGHTENED CHICKEN, THE GLUTTONOUS SWINE
THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO PUT INSIDE YOU
NEVER FORGET
THE ELEPHANT
NEVER FORGETS YOU
FIRE TREES ON THE HILLS OF MEGIDDO
KILLER BEE, VAMPIRE MOSQUITO
THIS IS WHERE THE SNAKE SPEAKS IN TONGUES
TO THE FIRST MAN AND THE MAN-MADE WOMAN
LOVE FOR GAME AND WAR FOR OIL
SET THE TABLE WITH THE MORTAL COIL
PUT ON THE SKIN AND YOU EAT YOUR FILL
ALL YOU CAN EAT, ALL THAT YOU CAN KILL
NEVER FORGET
THE ELEPHANT
NEVER FORGETS YOU
FOG ROLLS IN, UNINVITED,
NIGHT MOANS FOR THE NEW DEAD
THE VOICES BEHIND SLAUGHTERHOUSE DOORS
IT'S MAN AND NATURE IN A MESSY DIVORCE
ICE MELTS BUT RIVER'S DRY
IT'S WHERE THE POLAR BEARS GO TO DIE
FLASH FLOOD FROM THE FAST FOOD HEAT
YOU GOT FAT ON THE CHEAP MEAT
YEAH
NEVER FORGET
THE ELEPHANT
NEVER FORGETS YOU

MANGEZ LA FEMME
By David Poe. © 2010 Charming Martyr Music (BMI.) All rights reserved.
THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH WINE
BEFORE THE VINES ARE BARREN
AND WHEN THE CELLAR IS DRY
YOU WILL REMEMBER THIS NIGHT
DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO ME
AND THINK OF ME FONDLY WHEN I AM GONE
AND DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO ME
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I DID WRONG
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I SAID
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING
THERE ARE ONLY SO MANY TIMES
BEFORE THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN
BECOME YOUR WHOLE LIFE
AND YOU WILL REMEMBER THIS NIGHT
THERE ARE ONLY SO MANY TIMES
BEFORE YOU REALIZE
THE ALCOHOL CAN PURIFY
AND YOU WILL REMEMBER THIS NIGHT
SO DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO ME
AND THINK OF ME FONDLY WHEN I AM GONE
AND DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO ME
SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I DID WRONG
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I SAID
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING
MANGEZ LA FEMME!
ONLY SO MANY TIMES YOU CAN FAIL,
WHEN A FRIEND WILL POST YOUR BAIL
AND GET YOUR ASS OUT OF JAIL
AND YOU WILL REMEMBER THAT NIGHT
THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH WINE
BEFORE THE VINES ARE BARREN
AND WHEN THE CELLAR IS DRY
YOU WILL REMEMBER THIS NIGHT
SO DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO ME
AND THINK OF ME FONDLY WHEN I AM GONE
DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO YOU
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I DID WRONG
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I SAID
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING
IS SHE BLOODY?
IS SHE RARE?
IS SHE VERY WELL-DONE?
WHEN YOU BOIL THE SKIN OFF THE BONE
AND REMOVE THE HAIR,
YOU'LL HAVE SOME FUN
GRIND YOUR BEEF
PULL YOUR PORK
JERK YOUR CHICKEN WELL
MAKE YOUR SAUSAGE AS LONG
AS THE LIGHT ON THE TOUR EIFFEL
THEN FAREWELL, MA BELLE
MANGEZ LA FEMME!
JE NE VEUX RIEN OUBLIER
NE DIT JAMAIS JAMAIS
JAMAIS JAMAIS JAMAIS
NOW DRINK DRINK DRINK DRINK
DRINK DRINK TO ME
ET PUIS MANGEZ MANGEZ MANGEZ MANGEZ
MANGEZ LA FILLE
THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH WINE
BEFORE THE VINES ARE BARREN
AND THEN THE CELLAR IS DRY
YOU WILL REMEMBER THIS NIGHT
SO DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO YOU
DRINK, DRINK, DRINK TO YOU
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I DID WRONG
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I SAID
I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING
CHERCHEZ LA CHIEN!
MANGEZ LA FEMME!
