muñeco de nieve Radio Nowhere

I was tryin' to find my way home
But all I heard was a drone
Bouncing off a satellite
Crushin' the last lone American night

This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?

I was spinnin' 'round a dead dial
Just another lost number in a file
Dancin' down a dark hole
Just searchin' for a world with some soul

This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?

I just want to hear some rhythm
I just want to hear some rhythm
I just want to hear some rhythm
I just want to hear some rhythm

I want a thousand guitars
I want pounding drums
I want a million different voices speaking
in tongues

This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?

I was driving through the misty rain
Yeah searchin' for a mystery train
Boppin' through the wild blue
Tryin' to make a connection with you

This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere,
is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?

I just want to feel some rhythm
I just want to feel some rhythm
I just want to feel your rhythm (you swoon)
I just want to feel your rhythm (you swoon)
I just want to feel you swoon
I just want to feel you swoon
I just want to feel you swoon
I just want to feel you swoon


muñeco de nieve You'll be Comin' Down

White roses and misty blue eyes
Red mornin's and nothin' but grey skies
A cup of coffee, your heart shot clean through
Jacket you bought me gone dazy greyblue

You're smilin' now but you'll find out
They'll use you up and spit you out now
Your head's spinnin' in diamonds and clouds
But pretty soon it turns out

You'll be comin' down now baby
You'll be comin' down
What goes around it comes around and
You'll be comin' down

Easy street and cruel luck and true lies
Smile's as sad as those dusky blue skies

A silver plate of pearls my golden child
It's all yours at least for a little while

You'll be fine long as your pretty face holds out
Then it's gonna get pretty cold out
Endless streams of stars shootin' by


muñeco de nieve Livin' in the Future

A letter come blowin' in
On an ill wind
Somethin' bout me and you
Never seein' one another again

And what I knew had come
Stood I struck deaf and dumb
Like when we kissed
That taste of blood on your tongue

Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet

Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet

Woke up election day
Skies gone clouded and shades of grey
Beneath the dirty sun
I whistle my time away

Then just about sun down
You come walkin' through town
Your boot heels clickin' like
The barrel of a pistol spinnin' round

Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet
The earth it gave away
This hero's tortured sun
I opened up my heart to you
It got all damaged and all done

My ship liberty sailed away
On a bloody red horizon
The groundskeeper opened the gates
And let the wild dogs run

Alone I limp through town
A lost cowboy at sundown
Got my monkey on a leash
Got my ear tuned to the ground

My faith's been torn asunder
Tell me is that rollin' thunder
Or just the sinkin' sound
Of somewhere I'm just goin under

Don't worry, darlin'
No, baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet


muñeco de nieve Your Own Worst Enemy

You can't sleep at night
You can't dream your dream
Your fingerprints on file
Left clumsily at the scene

Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemy has come to town

Yesterday the people were at ease
Baby you sleeped in peace
You closed your eyes and saw her
You knew who you were

Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your world keeps turning round and round
But everything is upside down
Your own worst enemy has come to town

There's a place you know
Staring back from the shop window
The condition you're in
Now you just can't get out of this skin

The times are not to clear
So you moved over here
What's the family past a cure
Now no ones very sure

Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemie's come
everything's falling down
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your own worst enemy has come
everything's falling down
Your own worst enemy has come to town
Your flag it flew so high
It drifted into the sky


muñeco de nieve Gipsy Biker

The speculators made their money
on the blood you shed
Your momma´s pulled the sheets up off your bed

Profiteers on Jhames Street
sold your shoes and clothes
Ain´t nobody talkin´ because everybody
knows
We pulled your cycle up back the garage and polished up the chrome
Our gypsy biker coming home

Sister Mary sits with your colors,
but Johnny´s drunk and gone
This old town´s been rousted,
which side you on?

They would march up over the hill,
this old fools parade
Shouting victory for the righteous
for you must hear the grace
Ain´t nobody talkin´,
but just waiting on the phone
Our Gypsy biker coming home

We rode into the foothills,
Bobby brought the gasoline
We stood around the circle
as she lit up the ravine
The spring hot desert wind
rushed down on us
All the way back home
To the dead, well it don´t matter much bout who´s wrong or right
You asked me that question,
I didn´t get it right

You slipped into your darkness,
now all that remains
Is my love for you brother,
life´s still unchanged
To him that threw you away,
you ain´t nothing but gone
My gypsy biker´s coming home

And now I´m out countin´ white lines
Countin´ white lines and getting stoned
My gypsy biker´s coming home

La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la


muñeco de nieve Girls in their Summer Clothes

Well the street lights shine
down on Blessing Avenue
Lovers they walk by holdin' hands two by two
A breeze crosses the porch, bicycle spokes
spin round
Jacket's on, I'm out the door
Tonight I'm gonna burn this town down

And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by

Kid's rubber ball smacks
off the gutter 'neath the lamp light
Big bank clock shines off
of the sleepy front porch lights

Downtown the store's alive
as the evening's underway
Things been a little tight,
but I know they're gonna turn my way

And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by

Frankie's Diner's over on the edge of town
The earth's salt spinnin' round
Like a cross over the lost and found
Flourescent lights flicker above Bob's Grill

Shanika brings a coffee and asks fill?
And says penny for your thoughts
Now, my poor Bill

She went away,
she cut me like a knife
Had a beautiful thing,
maybe you just saved my life
With just a glance down
here on Magic Street
Love's a fool's dance,
I ain't got no sense
But I still got my feet

And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by

And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by


muñeco de nieve I'll Work for your Love

Pour me a drink of Theresa
in one of those glasses you've dusted off
And I'll watch the bones in your back
Like the stations of the cross

Round your head the sun lifts a halo at
your lips a crown of thorns
Whatever the deal's going down,
to this one I'm sworn

I'll work for your love dear
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love

The dust of civilizations hang
love's sweet remains
Slip off of your fingers and come
dripping down like rain

The pages of Revelation lie open
in your empty eyes of blue
watch you slip that comb through your hair and this I promise you

I'll work for your love dear
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love

Well, tears they fill the rosary at your feet
my temple of bones
Here in this perdition we go on and on
Now I see the pieces crumble and
our book of faith's been tossed
I'm just out here searching for my own
piece of the cross
A late afternoon sun fills the room with a
mist in the garden before
the fall
I watch your hands smooth the front of
your blouse and seven drops of blood fall

I'll work for your love dear
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love
What others may want for free
I'll work for your love


muñeco de nieve Magic

I got a coin in my palm
I can make it disappear
I got a card up my sleeve
Name it and I'll pull it out your ear
I got a rabbit in my hat
If you wanna come and see
This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be

I got shackles on my wrists
Soon I'll slip and I'll be gone
Chain me in a box in the river
And Rising in the Sun
Trust none of what you hear
And less of what you see
This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be

I got a shiny saw blade
All I need's a volunteer
I'll cut you in half
While your smilin' at me

And the freedom that your songs
Drifting like a ghost amongst the trees

This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be

Now there's a fire down below
But it's coming up here
So leave everything you know
Carry only what you feel
On the road the sun is sinkin' low
Somebody's hanging in the trees
This is what we'll be
This is what we'll be


muñeco de nieve Last to Die

We took that highway til the road
went black
We marked Truth or Consequences
on our back
A voice drifted up from the radio
Yeah, some other voice from long ago

Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Whose blood will spill?
Whose heart will break?
Who'll be the last to die
For a mistake

The kids are sleeping in the backseat
We're just countin' the miles you and me
We don't measure the blood
we've drawn anymore
We just stack the bodies outside the door

Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Whose blood will spill?
Whose heart will break?
Who'll be the last to die
For a mistake

The wise men were all fools
What to do?
The sun sets in flames as the city burns
Another day gone down as the night turns
And I hold you here in my heart
As things fall apart

A downtown window flushed with light
Faces of the dead at five
A martyr's silent eyes
Petition the drivers as we pass by

Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Whose blood will spill?
Whose heart will break?
Who'll be the last to die

Who'll be the last to die for a mistake
The last to die for a mistake
Darlin' your tyrants and kings form the
same fate
Strung up at your city gates
And you're last to die
For a mistake


muñeco de nieve Lomg Walk Home

Last night I stood at your doorstep
Trying to figure out what went wrong
You slipped something into my palm
And you were gone

It was the same deep green of summer
'Bove me the same night sky was glowin'
In the distance I could see the town
where I was born
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home

I walked past Sal's grocery
Joe's barber shop on South Street
I looked into the faces
They were all rank strangers to me
Veteran's Hall up upon the hill
Stood dark and alone
Frankie's diner was shuttered and boarded

With a sign that just said "gone"
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home

My father said "Son, we're lucky,
This town is a beautiful place to be born.
It just wraps its arms around you,
Nobody crowds you, nobody goes it
alone"

"You see that flag down at the courthouse?
It means certain things are set in stone.
Who we are, what we'll do and what we won't"

Well it's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home

Here everybody has a neighbor
Everybody has a friend
Everybody has a reason to begin again
Now the war is rising 'round the corner

There's a fire burning out of control
There's a hurricane on Main Street
And I've got murder in my soul
Yeah well when the party's over
And the cheering is all gone
Will you know me, will I know you
Will I now you

'Cause it's gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty darling, don't wait up for me
It's gonna be a long walk home
Hey now darling, it's gonna be a long
walk home**
Yeah it's gonna be a long walk home


muñeco de nieve Devils Arcade

Remember a morning
We dug up your gun
Four rooms in a barrel
A hanging sun

Those first nervous evenings
Of Perfume and gin
They'll all smell on your breath
As I helped you get in
The rush of your lips
The feel of your nails
The beat of your heart
The Devil's Arcade

You said "Here are the needy
here it'll get made"
Somebody made a bet
Somebody paid

The cool desert morning
and nothing to save
Just metal and plastic
Where your body caved
The slow games of poker
with Lieutenant Ray
and the ward with the blue walls
A sea with no name
Where you lie adrift with the heroes
Of The Devil's Arcade

You sleep and dream
your buddies Charlie and Jin
and wake with the fake desert dust
on your skin
Voice says "Don't worry
I'm here
Just whisper the word tomorrow
in my ear"

House on a quiet street
Home for the brave
A Glorious kingdom
with the sun on your face
Rising from a long night
As dark as the grave
On a thin sheet, the next moments
And something like faith
On a morning to order
A breakfast to make
A bed draped in sunshine
A Body that waits
For the touch of your fingers
The end of the day

The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart
The beat of your heart

The slow burning away
Love’s bitter fires
of the Devil's Arcade


muñeco de nieve Terry's Song

Well they built the Titanic to be one of a
kind
But many ships have ruled the sea
They built the Eiffel Tower to stand alone,
they could build another if they pleased

Taj Mahal, the pyramids of Egypt,
Kinda unique I suppose
But when they built you, brother,
They broke the mold

Now the world is filled with many
wonder under the passing sun
And sometimes something comes along
and you know for sure it’s the only one

The Mona Lisa, the David, the Sistine
Chapel, Jesus, Mary and Joe
And when they built you, brother,
They broke the mold

When they built you brother,
They turned dust into gold
When they built you, brother,
they broke the mold

They say you can’t take it with you,
but I think that they’re wrong
Cause all I know is I woke up this morning,
and something big was gone

Gone into that dark ether where you’re
still young and dark and cold
Just like when they built you, brother,
they broke the mold

Now your death is upon us
and we’ll return your ashes to the earth
And I know you’ll take comfort in
knowing that you been roundly blessed
and cursed

But love is a power greater than death
Just like the songs and stories told
And when she built you, brother, she
Broke the mold

That attitudes a power stronger than death
Oh I’ve been burning (her stone cold?)
When they built you, brother…
