DREAMMAKER

Today's dreammaker
Today's leg breaker
Today's overtaker
Today's mythmaker
You'll fall down
Today's dealmaker
Today's bellyacher
Today's pepper shaker
Today's cultmaker
Cause everywhere I see this face
From everywhere a warning's placed
Everywhere you might have seen me wave I'm saved
Today's housebreaker
Today's rattlesnaker
Today's troublemaker
Today's big faker
BEAUTIFUL
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
Is this just a great
escape
Miles away am I when I see your face
Disappear for just another glance
I'm faraway from everything I can fake
Yeah you're so
Yeah you're so beautiful
Is this just a free for all
Release the reason for this waterfall
I might as well ask Lawrence he might know
Like summer caught in wind
A day when nothing seems as clear
The spotlight flickering
Your mind is sure to let you in
Is this just a sound effect
I'll pray for you and wait for your request
I declare a love I'm not ashamed of
TANGERINE
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
You'll never see clearer
than the way you do today
I take no real pleasure to be someone in your charade
I'm much too
unsettled with being something that I ain't
And if you're not impressed fair game have a nice day
And when the
day is done
You'll see I answer to only one
Go all the way
Tangerine
Your limelight at midnight is a limo turned pumpkin
I'll love you
You'll steal me
But tomorrow never knows
You here's your hello
E.B.T.

Euromatic black trance
And waiting for a Billy goat
On superficial
Occidental
Paranoid and Sigmund Freud
And oxymoron
Waiting for the Stax red mack attack
For Abednigo and vertigo
Hey Birmingham and Dublin mad
Well I'll come down
Well I'll be around
Eighteen million children fly
An absolute sarcastic smash
To longitude on Harley way
To Canterbury on an egg
Of sister ordinary trance
And first rate dance of attitude
And mineral eradicate
And speculate for New York days
I drive a car
To work it's very far
And I'm like you
I wish I were there too
Well I'm a trashman
well I'm a superstar
well I'm a paramedic
well I'm a child of God
In a daze
You've lost your make
It's hard to be yourself
Your mind will play out its old ways
It's OK A-OK
Air romance and lodging seat
So super braid and demonstrate
For Jesus saves all human race
Eleven ways to separate
And make your day
And run away
To pull your weight
And tooth decay
For interest rate
Raspberry taste
And showboat mate
With face of cake
LITTLE TREE
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb and Bob Wohler
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
Oh little tree what do you
mean to me
You're everything I've wanted you to be
I look into your eyes
And see your sweet disguise
Oh little tree
I guess I really never said hello
But now you know it's time for me to know
So here I go my friend
It's time to make amends
Oh little tree that burns in me
Yeah yeah yeah
Not a single chance
Not a single dance
Not one memory has ever been matched
Not a wink of sleep
Not a lover's blink
Not a single day I'd throw you all away
Everyone has sold me a white
lie
Roll the dice and watch the glimmer die
You live inside of me
Please help us all to see
What makes you
Oh little tree that burns in me
Your mind is where it ought to be
Oh little tree that grows in me
Your life has made its final plea
Oh little tree that burns in me
I look at your disguise
And see your Jesus eyes
Oh little tree that burns in me

MISS AMERICA
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
You don't need a reason
You don't need to talk
And if you call I will listen
Well I will be where you are
Miss America she's lost her clothes and
thrown it all away
Miss America no one cares about you anyway
Miss America I love you today
Can I say
I don't need your excuse
I don't mind who you are
You can be on a postcard
If you want I'll be far
Cause momma's little girl's about to climb a
tree
Momma's little girl needs a reason to believe
You you brought me right
through
You gave me the time to be alone
And who has red white and blue
You gave me no right to throw a stone
Well you don't need the pressure
How about Noah's ark
I never understood a cheerleader
It's modern life and you're a star
LOVE IS ME
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
Love love love love love
is me
I'm the one who's got it made
I'm the one the train the railroad made to bring me back to truth
Your
kind has nothing for me now
Are you out there for me to tell
How you fell from grace is far from amusing it
leads to death Nobody
likes you But you should be used to that
I write the letter
I clean the mirror
Everything is oh so clearer
Day turns into night
And night turns into you
I'm so happy when you're not around
No you're not alone
Faith has a money hand
Time is born
Eternity's the plan
Though the oceans crawl
And the day is long
The night is tall
But its future's dead
HOLIDAY
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
Have you heard the latest
thing
Where to go
Who to see
The delicious drama
The buzz is flipping
You could say boredom moves me
Guaranteed to make you laugh
The run after your own hat
Against a brick wall
It's comical
We're all in the same almanac
In a day of lost and found
You gotta get a new meaning now
Driving a double-nickel
Can lead to a miracle
New shade and lamp post
New life for your windows
It's who you love the most
In a day when love is made
I'm gonna get it to the underpaid
You need a holiday
You need to say to the day that you won't decay
You need to make a new start as you occupy
Cause it's all we're ever told
Pain starts when we're in the cradle
Belief is where you start
Like water to wine
You're out of time
Get what you want by phone
Every kind of pillow
All the blanket statements
For every season
It's all a pale afterglow
ELECTRIC EYES
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
We used to be a dozen bees
Buzzing around inside my head
I used to fly the friendly skies
When you were not too far from me
I wish I knew what I could do
To prove that good is true
Your past has nothing on me
I've blinded memories
We used to be a dozen chiefs
Without an Indian in sight
I'll take 15 minutes of fame
But you see I'd rather have 30
I never called you on your dime
Next time I won't decline
I wish the world was really flat
And change would come and last
JUST SAY IT
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
(Billy Tarka threw in a few cents on music)
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
You paid your debt to destiny
Cause I am on my way to alimony
I must confess embarrassment
Whether I am the choices I have made
Change is what a convict fakes
Just say it
Here's your time
Don't play it
Tonight we shine
Our doubt is blind
There's no design
Lead me to your side where my hand goes through
Send back a parade
Mail it too
Cause I am on my way to be away
Your mind's made up
It's all the way
My life is what I'm all about
My dreams are what I hold in doubt
It's where you are
It's what I do
It's who are you
LONDON TOWN
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
(Billy Tarka threw in a few cents on music)
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
Oh life is a maze lost inside
you
You'll look for a day when you're headline news
Why must everyone see what's outside of me
No I've never been where I went looking
Oh one of these days
You'll find your way
In London Town
We wear our disguise to sell merchandise
I fell in the space that's empty paradise
God speed down
SPEEDRACER
Words and Music by Rob Goraieb
Copyright 1997 Bridge Building Music (BMI)
I'm Speedracer
I'm Murray the K
I'm quite happy
And sad in the same day
One reality
Will you love me
Enough to die
I only drive as fast as my angels can fly
I'm euphoric
I live by faith
I have treasure
But it's not in a safe
I can fly in the summertime
I can fly
I can fly away
In your arms today
Time away I am sane
Time away I should paint
