Zero 03:34
Spending your pay on shiny things See all the joy that it brings 'til the next day comes And what's there left to show? Zero Ploughing the ground, plough me down Dragging the sea, dragging me 'til we're both bone dry The next thing that you know Zero Oil in the ground is getting low Oil in the air always grow But no one wants to know Just how low will it go? Zero

Keep On 03:04
Left alone in a city-scape and the sign on the road said you're too late But I pushed ahead and I looked behind at the knots I'd made in my travelling twine I wish I'd worn some dungarees 'cause I stood out hard in my hippie jeans My furrowed brow was like a warning sign saying I might be mad but I'm just a little confused I met a girl who was a stand-up Joe This I know 'cause she told me so She had a sassy mouth, she had mean old eyes, she had knee-high boots, she had stocking thighs I learned from her with a steady gait that I would get to town and I would get there late Her lips bestowed me with a mighty tune and it went like this! Dazed and dreamy, kind of cold and steamy With my hair above me and my feet beneath me My legs had parted in a mighty stride, my calves were lean, my toes were wide I poured ahead like a tidal wave with the road so long I could see it for days My funk intact and my boogie strong, I keep on keeping on...

Buy a round, drink it down, set 'em up, drink up, bend your elbow, find the penny, keep it steady Keep 'em coming, set 'em up again Buy another round, line 'em up, knock 'em down, pour a pint, pour a pitcher, poor me Portent of tomorrow, portent of the end Oh, my head explodes with laughter Worries drown and die Never mind the morning after It's a cure that I Repeat As Necessary
4.
Stick Around 02:40
Fire underground, coming 'round Every single town, coming down And I don't know what to do to light a fire under you So stick around Every single time “No, it's mine!” And I don't know what to say It gets worse here every day Just look around
5.
Come inside, Miss Rose Let me see you Come inside, Miss Rose Let me be with you You know that no one knows the way I feel, dear And the feeling stays When you leave here
