ALREADY GONE John Soeder © 2011 I got a head full of worry I got a heart full of fear I got a bottle full of whiskey And I’ve had it up to here Oh baby Somebody done somebody wrong I got a half mind to leave you But you’re already gone I got no time for your games I got too much time alone You got to get yourself together You got to get yourself back home Oh baby It’s been going on too long I got a half mind to leave you But you’re already gone I just want to look you in the eye And hear you say you’re gonna try Not to be so mean Not to be so cruel I’m a patient man but I’m not your fool baby It just goes on and on I got a half mind to leave you But you’re already gone, gone, gone I got one foot in the cradle I got one foot in the grave I got just one question for you Why can’t you behave baby It just goes on and on I got a half mind to leave you But you’re already gone, gone, gone I got things to do I got bills to pay Got places to go Got people to see Got nothing left to say to you baby Why do you do me wrong I got half a mind to leave you But you’re already gone I swear I got half a mind to leave you But you’re already gone

THE SINGULARITY John Soeder © 2011 Hey buckaroos Have you heard the news The computers are taking over Where will you be When the singularity arrives Where will you be When the singularity arrives Hey buckaroos Have you heard the news The computers are taking over Where will you be When the singularity arrives I’ll open a window in my mind Nothing to see When the singularity arrives Nothing to be When the singularity arrives Checking for updates Over and over What becomes of you and me When the singularity arrives I’ll open a window in my mind Don’t worry baby Everything’s gonna be alright No worries baby Everything’s gonna be just fine The singularity One single singularity The singularity One single singularity I’ll open a window in my mind Don’t worry baby Everything’s gonna be alright No worries baby Everything’s gonna be just fine Where will you be When the singularity arrives Where will you be When the singularity arrives Hey buckaroos Have you heard the news The computers are taking over Where will you be When the singularity arrives I’ll open a window in my mind Don’t worry baby Everything’s gonna be alright No worries baby Everything’s gonna be just fine Don’t worry baby Everything’s gonna be alright No worries baby Everything’s gonna be just fine

INTERSTELLAR RUNAWAY John Soeder © 2011 It gets me down When I look around So I look up instead Count the stars In the sky Way up high Oh my my Count the stars In the sky Way up high Oh my Back down here Too much to fear There has to be a better place Out in outer space Has to be a better place In outer space 3, 2, 1 Here I go I’m sticking out my thumb And hitching a ride on the next UFO Interstellar runaway Interstellar runaway I’m packing my bags I’m leaving today Bye bye Old Yeller Run Run Run Interstellar runaway There ain’t no crying In the arms of Orion Pretty please Pleiades More of these If you please Pretty please Pleiades More of these If you please On my way Across the Milky Way A child of the universe Who beat the odds And broke the curse Child of the universe Beat the odds Break the curse Interstellar runaway Interstellar runaway I’m packing my bags I’m leaving today Bye bye Old Yeller Run Run Run Interstellar runaway Interstellar runaway

Nowhere Fast 03:59
NOWHERE FAST John Soeder © 2011 The time we spent Was heaven-sent The doctor will see you now They got it bent You’re innocent The doctor will see you now I heard somebody say Slow down Slow down We’re getting nowhere fast Some more of these If you please Go home There ain’t nothing here for you to see Times like these Bring me to my knees Go home There ain’t nothing here for you to see I heard somebody say Slow down Slow down We’re getting nowhere fast Thought I heard somebody say Slow down Slow down Slow down Slow down We’re getting nowhere fast We’re getting nowhere fast

I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY NOW John Soeder © 2011 You took my money You made me cry You broke my heart That ain’t no lie I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now Stabbed in the back Betrayed with a kiss My mama told me there would be days like this I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now Are you happy now It’s raining cats It’s raining dogs A plague of locusts A plague of frogs I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now Fire and brimstone What do you expect No good comes from no good It’s a domino effect I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now Are you happy now I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now Are you happy now The earth is quaking The dead are waking Comedown is calling The sky is falling I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now Life as we know it Has come to a halt It’s the end of the world And it’s all your fault I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now Are you happy now I hope you’re happy I hope you’re happy now

JUST SAYIN’ John Soeder © 2011 Three of hearts and apple pies A pair of pennies instead of eyes Oh my my Do you remember Because I remember All too well The sun went down When you arose A sewn-on mouth and button nose So it goes Rags to riches Got me in stitches Does it ring a bell Oh well And if the best things in life are free Can someone please tell me Why are we still payin’ I’m not sayin’ that you’re wrong I’m not sayin’ that you’re right I’m just sayin’ Act Two, Scene One Here we go Light the lights On with the show You never know I wear it well But you can tell It’s wearing thin Pick me ups And hand me downs Forget me nots Forgotten towns Send in the clowns Seed the clouds With your tears And let it rain Let it rain And if the best things in life are free Can someone please tell me Why are we still payin’ I’m not sayin’ that you’re wrong I’m not sayin’ that you’re right I’m just sayin’ Three of hearts and apple pies A pair of pennies instead of eyes Oh my my Do you remember Because I remember All too well And if the best things in life are free Can someone please tell me Why are we still payin’ I’m not sayin’ that you’re wrong I’m not sayin’ that you’re right I’m just sayin’ And if the best things in life are free Can someone please tell me Why are we still payin’ I’m not sayin’ that you’re wrong I’m not sayin’ that you’re right I’m just sayin’

NO GOOD AT GOODBYES John Soeder © 2011 See ya later Alligator In a while Crocodile I’ll fake a smile A word to the wise Even when you ain’t having fun Time flies I’m no good at goodbyes Bon voyage Happy trails I’ll be seeing you Set your sails For the sun It’s no surprise When it comes to sentimental fools I take the prize I’m no good at goodbyes I’ll miss you more than words can say More than you’ll ever know Forgot my line The final scene Last picture show We’ve been to hell and back together It’s hard to let you go I’ll miss you more than words can say More than you’ll ever know Forgot my line The final scene Last picture show We’ve been to hell and back together It’s hard to let you go See ya later Alligator In a while Crocodile I’ll fake one more smile I realize You need a sunset To make a sunrise I’m just no good at goodbyes And in the end It’s no surprise Even when you ain’t having fun Time flies I’m no good at goodbyes

about

...which brings us to SONGS FOR INTERSTELLAR RUNAWAYS, the fifth (!) and final (?) full-length release of a very productive 2011.

Special thanks to my talented compadres. Brilliant as usual on guitar, Jim Cantrell lights up half the album with his stellar (interstellar?) contributions. And guitar-playing colleague Steve Copley provides the perfect touch on "All the Love in the World." Muchas gracias, Jim and Steve.

Thankyouthankyouthankyou for listening. These songs are for the interstellar runaway in each of us. See you in the sky....
