2. Into Your Arms (Written by Robert St. Clare)
I know a place where I can go when I'm alone into your arms whoa into your arms I can go I know a place that's safe and warm from the crowd and if I should fall I know I won't be alone anymore
3. It's About Time (Written for Juliana Hatfield, Written by Evan Dando and Tom Morgan)
Bite my tongue and I won't say a word against anyone but I don't wanna get my fingers wet unless it's an accident fell out on the street now I'm watching and I grit my teeth but I don't have to look that way if I had half a say It's about time lick my lips and I won't hear the end of this on your knees a reassurance buy some time and come back for it before long before it's gone patience is like bread I say I ran out of that yesterday enough about us lets talk about me if not about you it's not about sunshine it's about time touch my leg it's smooth but there's stubble there I'll fall back and let em' go only when I know you know I don't know make me sure have your people contact mine and keep your lawyer on the line
4. Down About It (Written by Evan Dando and Tom Morgan)
Gotta own up on my own somehow toss the beginning and try to live it down 'n work my way out I been so down about it it gets the same every time I shy away from the blame and I stand my time you can understand why I been so down about it she's gonna give me all the time I need to finish it and if I can't I'll sleep over and out like a light when it's not plugged in fading around if it starts again you just don't get it when I get so down about it I drop you a hint so I hope you don't catch you fumble your keys and I throw the latch you'll still worried that
5. Paid To Smile (Written by Evan Dando)
Could you see your way clear and arrange your eyes away from mine sorry I'm here but you get paid get paid to lie you get paid to smile would you really say hello and let me carry my own guitar and please don't hold the door I can work the handle on any car It's really not that hard smile ooooh the cigarette girl took off her tray and dropped her dress in a shiny pile pulled her pants up on the way when she gets home she'll laugh a while she gets paid to smile
6. Big Gay Heart (Against violence, Written by Evan Dando and Tom Morgan)
Take a look into some big grey eyes and ask yourself you wanna make 'em cry lookin out of them It's just as well but your gonna live to see I'm gonna ask you why either way you got a bone to pick can't you leave that to somebody else and I don't need you to suck my dick or to help me feel good about myself big gay heart please don't break my big gay heart why can't you look after yourself and not down on me do you have to try to piss me off just 'cause I'm easy to please if you can find a way to add it up it might be hard but it might be enough I'd be grateful I'd be satisfied and you might find in time it wouldn't feel so bad after all It doesn't take that much and it would mean the sum to me for you to loose that part that's still afraid and not prepared to see my big gay heart in the dark my big gay heart
7. Style (Written by Evan Dando and Tom Morgan)
Don't wanna get stoned don't wanna get stoned but I don't wanna not get stoned I don't wanna not get stoned don't wanna get high but I don't wanna not get high and I don't wanna not get stoned wanna knock things down I'm not gonna knock things down but I don't wanna not get stoned so I'm not gonna not knock things down don't wanna think twice I don't have to think twice but I'm not gonna get high and I'm not gonna not get stoned STYLE not gonna come 'round I don't wanna come down I just want one killer line and I'll figure it out myself
8. Rest Assured (Written by Evan Dando and Tom Morgan)
One of the reasons I came all this way two opposite seasons had to hear you say you were gonna hang around a while I notice my old postcard in a pile: pepper salt sugar and tarragon we're hanging by the pool mortar bricks and alumium step one figure two I know It's probly not my place watch the water drain a different way If I could you know I'd try to rest assured I've half a mind to pop it to lock it come on let's map it out It's not what you do to me It's what you do without rest assured I've half a mine to ask the other If I might rest assured
9. Dawn Can't Decide (Written by Evan Dando and Nic Dalton)
Dawn can't decide if there should be more of the porch she's sick of being inside he read the signs noe they're makin' out in Lancaster just to pass the time Curtis C called left a message in Japanese Dawn took the call reviewed the newest TAANG! release Joe shudda known that the Long Island Lolita would be the cause feels good to be Jesse on the inside today because a G minor morning was a C minor dawning and you strike the right chord in me no paperwork
10. I'll Do It Anyway (Written for Belinda Carlisle, Written by Evan Dando)
Bless my soul maybe i should leave it alone I'm sure It would be safer to stay at home you've made your point It's pointless and It's all gonna burn I'm in no state to skate but I'm gonna take my turn I know you may never really understand why I go through these motions with my hands It's a gesture at best but my body's in the right place to fall in your arms now and wait to save face I'll do It anyway no matter what they feel ain't got all the facts but I got a hunch and I know the deal I'll do It anyway shine what you might have heard there's something at hand it just ain't all planned It's still a beautiful world American men you know them they just gotta be right when It's left to me often times I'd rather not fight they make a big deal out of everything and they got too many guns and just to make 'em mad I'm gonna do it for fun I'll do it anyway over the barren plains I'm stll a girl It's just a horse and I got the reigns
11. Rick James Style (Written by Evan Dando and Tom Morgan)
12. Being Around (Written by Evan Dando and Tom Morgan)
If I was in the fridge would you open the door If I was the grass would you mow your lawn If I was your body would you still wear clothes If I was a booger would you blow your nose where would you keep it would you eat it I'm just trying to give myself a reason for being around If I was a front porch swing would you let me hang If I was a dance floor would you shake your thang If I was a rubber check would you let me bounce up and down inside your bank account would you trust me not to break you I'm just tryin' really hard to make you notice me being around If I was a haircut would you wear a hat If I was a maid could I clean your flat If I was the carpet would you wipe your feet in time to save me from mud off the street If you liked me If you loved me would you get down on your knees and scrub me I'm a little grubby from just being around
13. Favorite T (Written by Evan Dando)
I thought we had an understanding there wouldn't leave too soon figure it over and you'll find out where your green shirts gone had to hear about your danish boyfriend I forced a swoon when I went over to your dresser drawer and I now I got it on I got It on your favorite T it never looked as good on you as it looks on me I got It on I'll wait to see I used to wear it every day now It's twice a week fill in the shadows of a certain corner we used to sit there got me a brand new lamp plugged it in now the dark don't fit there ain't got the time or the inclanation to see this thru I'm lookin' up climbing out of the station and the sky's too blue the sky's too blue the sky's too blue it mightn't suit me quite as well as it used to I got it on your favorite T I used to wear it every day
14. You Can Take It With You (Written by Evan Dando)
Found a place nothing's ever there made a little space big enough to pitch a tent a hideaway I hadn't ever gone 'till I whacked my way under the overgrowth I found a place I found a place I found a place I whacked my way and looking back to discover my tracks dirty hands and light through the branches found myself a breathing place got room to stand up straight and If I wanna lay around I can find ways to pass the time flat down or on my side and in a while I close my eyes you can be too rich and you can be too thin and you can take it with you wherever you go you must talk to strangers when you visit a new park you might ask the park ranger where you should park you can be too rich and you can be too thin and you can take it with you the things that you learn
