Come On 04:55
Look out he's comin' Jumpin' around, you know his shoes ain't shining bright Oh yeah, they're worn out 'Cause you know that he's on the move, yeah, all the time "Margaritas and Jerry Nothin' is better in this life or the next" Oh yeah, he's sky high He's got his neons on, they play his favorite song That's the way we come on That's the way we shake it down We can feel it when it's coming We can feel it all around That's the way we come on Work hard then chill out Work is for the money, that's his philosophy Oh yeah, he's groovin' Then he spend all the plunder and he wonder why it ain't free Maybe he's sleeping He don't even know what he's missing on a Sunday night Oh yeah, he's worn out But they say that he's on the move, 'cause he's got more he can groove to That's the way we come on That's the way we shake it down We can feel it when it's coming We can feel it all around That's the way we come on

The sun still sinks below the skyline at dusk Time still ticks like a tried and true trusty engine Then there's you Then there's you Early morning over easy every day Precipitation pools on your person either way Tomorrow I'll see if I'm up for fighting the good fight Let you take me around the world again Tomorrow I'll see it, I'm gonna try it differently and see the signs You win this time Backs still break beneath the weight of burden Ambience and attitude ain't nothing but a curtain Can't you can't or can't you won't? Could you could or could but don't? A knife or a knuckle to the back keeps your kick down in your throat Tomorrow I'll see if I'm up for fighting the good fight Let you take me around the world again Tomorrow I'll see it, I'm gonna try it differently and see the signs You win this time

Minimize 03:24
This happens to me just about every year My clothes don't fit got too much shit so I grab a beer And I sift through all of my belongings And I really try to minimize my extra things I've gotten used to living out of small containers My guitar case, backseat car space, the hotel refrigerator All those awful movies that I've never seen Knick knacks, party favors seem superfluous to me Oooh I gotta minimize Oooh I'm gonna minimize All this furniture is going soon I have to vacate by this Tuesday and there is no room In my car for all the boxes and my souvenirs Those precious few things still reminding me of my time here I think I'll have to find some new stuff when I get Where I'm going, in the flow of it again And then next year I'll have to compromise Although I wonder if I'll never have to minimize Oooh I gotta minimize Oooh I'm gonna minimize Oh, down the road You're gonna have to understand Eventually my plan is to lighten my load It's a constant tug of war Wanting, needing, without being where I was before But it's all worth it in the end for me 'Cause I'm soul searching, forward lurching, far as I can see Oooh I gotta minimize Oooh I'm gonna minimize Oooh I gotta minimize Oooh I'm gonna minimize
