No Information (2:43)
That it was the laughter drove the man away
Some misinformation to lead you astray
“Older and wiser . . .” what they’d always say
He never welcomed that noise anyway
August first his letter read aloud today
Eloquent and absolutely nothing did he say
The less we heard the less confused that we were made
Information wasn’t all he never gave away
The cards were left where his last game was played
Eleven more months rent had just been paid

The Ladders (2:03)
So I chased myself up a tree
There was no one there before me
I hung on hours before I fell asleep
Some dogs around the neighborhood
Became so incensed with me
‘Cause they can’t get to me
Where I am ladders wait to see
Ladders wait to see what I need
Nothing that they got interests me
Somedays ahead that there’s no reasoning
Things that have plagued others
Are now happening to me
And they can get to me
Where I am ladders climb the tree
Ladders line the branches of the trees
Waiting for their chances to get at me
I think this has to be seen to believe
Nothing I can offer will convince them all to leave

The Buried Treasure Was Crap (pt. 1) (1:43)
Ahh ahh ahh ahh
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh ahhh
Five years later and nowhere to be seen
Until we traced our steps to where we should have been
And found the lock was broken not so casually
And all the things they saved removed successfully
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Thirteen years of working all for not
They asked us what it meant and what we really thought
We told them nothing ‘cause we weren’t finished yet
And if they want to know then come with us tomorrow
Ahh ahh ahh.

All In Order (3:01)
And so I landed here on another planet
By now it seems it might have happened to me
Everybody here looking at me weird, so I wondered
And so I wondered and wandered around the planet
Looking for some things that might have mattered to me
Everything here looks to me to be:
All in order
All in order it seems to be
‘Till cautiously, I go
Around the corner where nothing will grow without a
Kind of water that they don’t know about
The Plants think the animals are ruining everything
Everything here looks to me to be:
All in order
All in order. . .I go

Wait It Out (2:20)
(Originally written and recorded by Wenis)
I’m really laughing now
I don’t really understand
There’s no way out of it
I’m really down and out
I’m really out of it
I guess I’ll wait it out

Sign of the Times (3:12)
(Originally recorded by Petula Clark (My Love))
It’s a sign of the times
That your love for me is getting so much stronger
It’s a sign of the times
That I know I won’t have to wait much longer
You’ve changed a lot from the one I used to know
For when you hold me now
I feel like you never want to let me go
It’s a sign of the times
That you call me up whenever you feel lonely
It’s a sign of the times
That you tell your friends that I’m your one and only
I’ll never understand the way you treated me
For when I hold your hand
I know you couldn’t be the way you used to be
Maybe my lucky star at last decided to shine
Maybe somebody knows
How long I’ve waited to make you mine
It’s a sign of the times
And a year ago I never could have seen it
Don’t ever change your mind
And take your love away
Just leave the past behind
And baby only think of how it is today
It’s a sign of the times

Eyes of a Child (pt. Two) (3:12)
(Originally written and recorded by The Moody Blues)
I’m gonna sit and watch the web
That you will build this day
It will be a thread of love you’ll weave
It’s yours to show the way
Then everything will be as you will see in the light
In the eyes of a child
You must come out and see
That your world’s spinning round
And through life it will be a small part of a hope
Of a love that exists
In the eyes of a child you will see

Alone In a Furniture Warehouse (3:15)
