You’re not that cool
and you’re not that bold
You’re livin’in the past
but you’re not that old
You’re not happy with the world
you’re not happy with this town
You own a lot of things
but you’re always down
I’m not disrespectful...
I heard what you told me
You see the problem is...
I don’t like what you sold me
You don’t get what you want
you act all hurt
You can’t win fair
you go diggin for some dirt
Got the right friends
you got the right clothes
you go the right places
where everybody goes
I’m not disrespectful...
I heard what you told me
You see the problem is...
I don’t like what you sold me
You bought a good wife
so she’s good in bed
You bought a good surgeon
put hair on your head
For the years in the future
when you’re twisted n bitter
You got money put away
so you can take it with ya
I’m not disrespectful...
I heard what you told me
You see the problem is...
I don’t like what you sold me
An’ if it’s all true
an you get what you deserve
We’ve all juggled with the law
an’ smoked a little herb
Then I guess it’s alright
I guess it’s acceptable
For you to live your life
like A.G.F.A.
I’m not disrespectful...
I heard what you told me
You see the problem is...
I don’t like what you sold me

I may go insane
while I try to explain
But if you’re not listening
then don’t you complain
I go to sleep at night
with peace on my mind
But with a twist of fate
I have blues at sunrise
Humming a tune
as I walk down the street
Some old lost tune
about dragging your feet
I go to sleep at night
with peace on my mind
But with a twist of fate
I have blues at sunrise
Words on a page
paint a picture for me
Paint on a canvas
is harder to see
I go to sleep at night
with peace on my mind
But with a twist of fate
I have blues at sunrise

Living in Mooball
That’s where we like to be.
Living in Mooball
Kate Le Jam and Me
If you’re cruising thru Mooball
Might think there’s not much to see
If you’re cruising thru Mooball
Slow down the looking is free
There’s a Roadhouse in Mooball
Across the road from a field of cane
There’s a Roadhouse in Mooball
Old wheels and dunny lane
Bring your meltdown to Mooball
I the New Man drives you insane
Bring your meltdown to Mooball
Blues gonna ease your pain
This guitars from Mooball
That’s where we like to be.

You wont find them here
in this songbook of love
They’re missing, like me
such is life, such is blood
They used to lure,
seduce, and display
The words in his song
never making love stay.
I’ll throw you some pride
if your looking for answers
I’ve been there like you,
laugh at the lies
Jump rite in
be the wave that he rides
The words of the blues man
will rush like the tides
Do what he wants
and say you understand
But no “you’re my baby”
will come from this doggone man
I’ll throw you a truth
if your looking for answers
Ive been there like you,
there's no offered chances
They used to lure,
seduce, and display
The words in his song
never making love stay
You’ll feed him n shoe him
for his innocent lies
Suspicion, speculation
you will doubt your own eyes
Excuses all jaded,
a loosely knotted thread
Where women are a plenty
and feelings fast dead
The songs of the blues man
his tunes a howling dog
Sniffing out the heat
and a new love to flog
I’ll throw you a clue
if your looking for answers
Your song wont last long
its a snake and it dances
They used to lure
seduce, and display
The words in his song
never making love stay

Out Of Air

It brings me down - it bothers me
When they burn the earth
and pollute the sea
It brings me down - it bothers me
All the trees and the birds n bees
bring them all down to their knees
listen people everywhere
I don’t want to run out of air
When the sun goes down
and darkness falls
Don’t be so sure - it’ll rise again
When the sun goes down
and darkness falls
All our human-ness our desire
roll a wheel light a fire
thru the smoke-the answers clear
I don’t want to run out of air
The loss is yours - the loss is mine
from the soaring bird
to the tangled vine
The loss is yours - the loss is mine
All the trees and the birds n bees
bring them all down to their knees
listen people everywhere
I don’t want to run out of air

I WOKE UP THIS MORNING
AND I LOOKED PAST MY NOSE
DUCKS ON THE POND
AND SNAKES LOOK LIKE A HOSE
DRAGONFLYS SWOOPIN’
AND MAGPIES A-SNOOPIN’
SEE MY OWN REFLECTION
IN A DEWDROP ON THE FENCE
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY
STONED BY THE SILENCE
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY AIR
BUTTERFLYS LIKE SNOWFLAKES
ON DANDELION CARPET
TURKEYS STALK LIKE RAPTORS
THRU FIELDS OF GREEN & GOLD
ROSELLAS ON MY WINDOWSILL
GIANT MUSHROOMS SIT LIKE STONES
THERES A BIRD OUT THERE
SOUNDS JUST LIKE MY TELEPHONE
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY
STONED BY THE SILENCE
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY AIR
THE VIEW OUTSIDE MY WINDOW’S LIKE
A PAINTING ON THE WALL
I JUST ABOUT GET USED TO IT
AND A LEAF DECIDES TO FALL
HEAR A BLOWFLY BUZZING
AT THE FAR END OF THE HOUSE
SOUNDS JUST LIKE A GIANT WINGED
SIX LEGGED MOUSE
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY
STONED BY THE SILENCE
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY AIR
THINGS GET KINDA WORSE
AT THE END OF THE DAY
THE SILENCE JUST GETS DEEPER
AND SHIT COMES OUT TO PLAY
I’M FEELIN’ LIKE I’M DRUNK
AND I HAVEN’T TOUCHED A DROP
I RUN AND SHOUT LIKE A LOON
TO MAKE THIS NOTHING STOP
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY
STONED BY THE SILENCE
TRIPPIN’ OUT ON COUNTRY AIR
