C’MON C’MON John Soeder © 2009 I walk along the avenue OK not really But that’s how these songs start I’m sitting at a computer That’s not to say I don’t suffer for my art For the sake of argument Let’s assume I’m walking anyway Now I’ve gone and done it I’ve forgotten What I was gonna say C’mon c’mon Yeah yeah yeah Ooh baby baby Hey hey Let the sun shine on your life (repeat) Up and down And round and round Who cares if it’s not profound Up and down And round and round My feet never touch the ground Up and down And round and round Who cares if it’s not profound Up and down And round and round People dig a happy sound C’mon c’mon Yeah yeah yeah Ooh baby baby Hey hey Let the sun shine on your life (repeat) C’mon c’mon C’mon c’mon C’mon c’mon C’mon c’mon I walk along the avenue Another lie But that’s how these songs end My friend C’mon c’mon Yeah yeah yeah Ooh baby baby Hey hey Let the sun shine on your life (repeat)

HUSH (DORITO DUST) John Soeder © 2009 Yo yo check my flow This is how we do it in the 440 Yo yo check my flow This is how we do in the 440 Hush little baby Don’t day a word Papa’s gonna buy you a mockingbird And if that mockingbird don’t sing Papa’s gonna buy you some bling And if that bling ain’t good enough Papa’s gonna buy you some other stuff And if that stuff don’t make your day Papa’s gonna sell it on eBay Can you hear me? Are you out there? ’Cause I’m sending out this song to you tonight Can you hear me? (Can you hear me?) Are you out there? (Are you out there?) On and on and on and on tonight Hush little baby Get a load of this Papa’s gonna get you a stimulus And if that stimulus don’t trickle down Papa’s gonna take you to funkytown And if that funkytown forecloses Papa’s gonna buy you a dozen roses And if those roses make you blue Papa’s gonna get you a bailout, too Can you hear me? Are you out there? ’Cause I’m sending out this song to you tonight Can you hear me? (Can you hear me?) Are you out there? (Are you out there?) On and on and on and on tonight I’m like Dorito dust on your fingers Chip on my shoulder and the flava lingers I’m like Dorito dust on your fingers Long gone baby But the flava lingers Can you hear me? Are you out there? ’Cause I’m sending out this song to you tonight Can you hear me? (Can you hear me?) Are you out there? (Are you out there?) On and on and on and on tonight (repeat)

Indochine 02:32

INDOCHINE John Soeder © 2009 Indochine See her dancing in a young boy’s dream And all the visions that come in between Are of Indochine Carousel Spins round and round by a wishing well I whisper secrets I could never tell About Indochine Parasol She takes it with her to the shopping mall And when her liberators come to call She pretends it’s raining Indochine Everywhere she goes she makes a scene Long live my little drama queen All hail Indochine Parasol She takes it with her to the shopping mall And when her liberators come to call She pretends it’s raining O Indochine Take me back to a young boy’s dream ’Cause everything else I’ve ever seen Pales next to Indochine Indochine Indochine

Glory Train 04:24

GLORY TRAIN John Soeder © 2009 I heard that lonesome whistle In the middle of the night Ran to the window Yonder saw a light Getting closer Making its way Brighter and brighter The light became Then I heard the conductor Call my name Train came screeching to a halt Outside my door On it way to a place Where the streets are paved with gold Porter with angel wings Gave me a hand Took my seat and off we went To the promised land Rolling thunder Roll down the line Don’t need a ticket Don’t need no bags Some dressed in Sunday best Some dressed in rags Young and old And black and white Riding Side by side Making their way to a place Where the streets are paved with gold All aboard Faster and faster Sped that Glory Train Past mountains Past forests Past endless fields of grain It was God’s half acre Far as you can see Rolling over rivers And the sandy desert floor Through sun and rain and snowstorms Toward that distant shore Beyond this horizon Pilgrim set your sights Fix your gaze on a place Where the streets are paved with gold Looky here Now Do not weep for me My dear friend This is not farewell This is not the end We’ll meet again Down the line I’ll save you a place Where the streets are paved with gold C’mon now

VIRGINIA, WE NEED TO TALK John Soeder © 2009 I know a girl With a red dress on Tell me if you think she’ll like this song Do you think she’ll like it (She might not like your song) Oh she’s gonna like it (Prob’ly won’t like your song) She dances the minuet Daddy has a bayonet Do you know about it (Who took the sha la la) Yeah I know about it (Bring back that sha la la) Tonight The stars are shining bright I’m never going back there again No I’m never going back there again Tonight The stars are shining bright I’m never going back there again No I’m never going back there again The more I look The more I find The same things running Through my mind The less I know The more I see It’s true the truth Will set you free Dear Virginia They steered you wrong My sweet Virginia We need to talk I know a place where we can go Nobody else has to know Can you keep a secret (Who took the sha la la) It’ll be our secret (Bring back that sha la la) Music on the stereo My ideal scenario Music on the stereo Is my ideal scenario-o-o-o (She might not like your song) (Prob'ly won’t like your song) Today There’s not much left to say I’m never going back there again No I’m never going back there again Today There’s no much left to say I’m never going back there again You won’t ever catch me back there again The more I look The more I find The same things running Through my mind The less I know The more I see It’s true the truth Will set you free Dear Virginia They steered you wrong My sweet Virginia We need to talk Back to the girl With the red dress on Tell me if you think she’ll like this song Do you think she’ll like it (She might not like you song) Oh she’s gonna like it (Prob’ly won’t like your song) The more I look The more I find The same things running Through my mind The more I look The more I find The same things running Through my mind Dear Virginia They steered you wrong My sweet Virginia We need to talk

Pretty Please Pleiades 03:54

PRETTY PLEASE PLEIADES John Soeder © 2009 And so we came to the end Our ship was dashed Upon the rocks Swam for my life In a raging wine red sea But fate had stuffed the ballot box I was walking down the street Minding my own business When voices from above Sang in harmony You are the one You are the one Oh Pleiades Pretty please Pretty please Pretty pretty please please These Seven Sisters Gonna bring me to my knees When autumn’s chill Hangs in the air Look up at night You’ll see ’em there Shrouded in a haze like memories See they rise As the Hunter reaches for his bow Still they rise I’m walking down the street Minding my own business When 14 fingers Point down at me You are the one You are the one Oh Pleiades Pretty please Pretty please Pretty pretty please please These Seven Sisters Got me on my knees And so I came to the beginning My thoughts raced backwards in time The raging sea Is calling me But for now I’ll take a walk Just to clear my head You are the one You are the one Oh Pleiades Pretty please Pretty please Pretty pretty please please These Seven Sisters Got me on my knees Oh Pleiades Pretty please Pretty please Pretty pretty please please These Seven Sisters Gonna be the death of me

APOLLO-SOYUZ John Soeder © 2009 We fight Every other night It’s just the way it goes She thinks I’m wrong I know I’m right It’s all over But the so-and-so’s Why can’t we get back To the spirit They had in ’75 When the U.S. And the Soviet Union Soared above That Cold War jive It’s a fact opposites attract It’s a fact opposites attract What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz She loves me She loves me not What’s it gonna be dear cosmonaut What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz Same old story Throughout history When folks don’t see eye to eye They beat the war drums And they send in the armies Instead of giving peace a try But don’t forget about That little handshake High above the atmosphere If they could work it out In outer space Ain’t it worth a shot down here It’s a fact opposites attract It’s a fact opposites attract What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz She loves me She loves me not What’s it gonna be dear cosmonaut What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz I don’t wanna fight Every other night No more I don’t wanna fight Every other night No more What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz She loves me She loves me not What’s it gonna be dear cosmonaut What do we got to lose What do we got to lose We gotta get together like Apollo-Soyuz (repeat)
