---I Believe In Miracles---
(Taco Tunes ASCAP/Rabinowitz Music BMI)
I used to be on an endless run.
Believe in miracles 'cause I'm one.
I have been blessed with the power to survive.
After all these years I'm still alive.
I'm out here cookin' with the band.
I am no longer a solitary man.
Every day my time runs out.
Lived like a fool, that's what I was about, oh
I believe in miracles.
I believe in a better world for me and you.
Oh, I believe in miracles.
I believe in a better world for me and you.
Tattoo your name on my arm.
I always said my girl's my good luck charm.
If she could find a reason to forgive,
Then I could find a reason to live.
I used to be on an endless run.
Believe in miracles 'cause I'm one.
I have been blessed with the power to survive.
After all these years I'm still alive.
I believe in miracles.
I believe in a better world for me and you.
Oh, I believe in miracles.
I believe in a better world for me and you.
I close my eyes and think how it might be.
The future's here today.
It's not too late.
It's not too late, yeah!
I believe in miracles.
I believe in a better world for me and you.
Oh, I believe in miracles.
I believe in a better world for me and you.
---Zero Zero UFO---
(Taco Tunes ASCAP/Rabinowitz Music BMI)
It landed in a field in Idaho
Where it came from, I don't know
It did not look like it came from Japan
And out of the dark walked a strange man
If you think it's a pack of lies,
I saw it happen with my own eyes
A million miles from the milky way
A hundred years, a month, and a day
Zero Zero UFO (x 2)
Bright meteorites, the neon lights
Spaceship travels at the speed of light
A million stars in the sky
(I here the Queen's on the alien's side)
If you think it's a pack of lies,
I saw it happen with my own eyes
A million miles from the milky way
A hundred years, a month, and a day
Hey!
Zero Zero UFO (x 4)
Hey!
---Don't Bust My Chops---
(Taco Tunes ASCAP/Rabinowitz Music BMI)
I'm sick and tired of you calling me names
I'm sick and tired of your childish games
I'm sick and tired of your bullshit brats
Cocaine stupor and anxiety attacks
Picked up the magazine, I see your face
You're nothin' boy, a goddamn waste
With the lamest fashions on your back
You're never happy, a hypochondriac
Don't bust my chops, baby, don't bust my chops (x 2)
Yeah!
You're a styling queen and an alley cat
Too many chocolates, gettin' fat fat fat
You're a pain in the ass, and your on the (loose)
All I get from you is your bad attitude
Dirty mouth, it's all I can bear
Get outta here bitch, 'cause you're nowhere
Always wearin' that cheap perfume
Can always tell when you're in the room
Don't bust my chops, baby, don't bust my chops (x 2)
Ah
Don't bust my chops, baby, don't bust my chops (x 4)
Alright
---Punishment Fits The Crime---
I hear the bells of freedom chiming
And inside my heart I feel I'm dying
Wise guys never compromise
They they loose their rights and they act surprised
Jail really cuts ya down to size
Let the punishment fit the crime
The footprints on the sand of time
The philosophy of the poets' rhyme
Make a man humble in his prime
You can go up, down, or sideways
Be on Death Row, counting the days
They say the answers are blowin' in the wind
And to take yourself out would really be a sin
You just have to cope and start over again
Let the punishment fit the crime
The footprints on the sand of time
The philosophy of the poets' rhyme
Make a man humble in his prime
Little child cries in his sleep
And life makes promises it can't keep
And then you had, had enough
You realize somehow, someway
Your destiny was planned from the very first day
Let the punishment fit the crime
The footprints on the sand of time
The philosophy of the poets' rhyme
Make a man humble in his prime
(x 2)
Let the punishment fit the crime (x 4)
---All Screwed Up---

---Palisades Park---
(MPL Communications ASCAP)
Last night I took a walk in the dark
To a place called Palisades Park
To have some fun, to see what I could see
That's where the girls are
I took a ride on the shoopty shoop
The girl I sat with was awful, awful cute
And when it stopped, she was holding hands with me
My arms were flying up, like a rocket ship
Down, like a roller coaster
Fast, like a loopty loop
Then around, like a merry-go-round
We even at a hot dog stand
Slam danced to a rockin' band
And when she winked, I gave that girl a hug
In the tunnel of love
You'll never know how good it just can feel
'Til it stops at the top of the ferris wheel
I fell in love, down at Palisades Park
Last night I took a walk in the dark
To a place called Palisades Park
To have some fun, to see what I could see
That's where the girls are
I took a ride on the shoopty shoop
The girl I sat with was awful, awful cute
And when it stopped, she was holding hands with me
My arms were flying up, like a rocket ship
Down, like a roller coaster
Fast, like a loopty loop
Then around, like a merry-go-round
We even at a hot dog stand
We danced around to a rockin' band
And when she winked, I gave that girl a hug
In the tunnel of love
You'll never know how good it just can feel
'Til it stops at the top of the ferris wheel
I fell in love, down at Palisades Park

lyrics in the CD booklet
---Learn To Listen---
You gotta learn to listen, listen to learn
You gotta learn to listen, before you get burned
Learn to listen, listen to learn
You gotta learn to listen, before you get burned
You gotta have fun, not a fix in the arm
You gotta stay out of deep water
Happiness is something you've gotta earn
You gotta fight to make (your love into returns)
Learn to listen, listen to learn
You gotta learn to listen, before you get burned
(x 2)
You got (the rights) and there's always a temptation
This one more screwed up the nation
Gotta have a plan, gotta learn to listen
Gotta take a stab, you have my blessing, alright
You gotta take the cotton out of your ears
You gotta start hanging on to all your (affairs)
I've lived your life for so many years
All I got was self-pity and tears
Learn to listen, listen to learn
You gotta learn to listen, before you get burned
(x 4)

Where is Santa? At his sleigh?
Tell me why is it always this way?
Where is Rudolph? Where is Blitzen, baby?
Merry Christmas, merry merry merry Christmas
All the children are tucked in their beds
Sugar-plum fairies dancing in their heads
Snowball fighting, it's so exciting baby

And that's the way it's got to be
I loved you from the start
'Cause Christmas ain't the time for breaking each other's hearts
