Sarina

Spoken: People in our society like to own things, control things, and this very often destroys things. Some things, though, are beyond our control. Take the stars for instance! Stars cannot be owned. The same goes for love...if it's real. This song goes out to my friend Sarina.
-------------

You can't shoot the stars out of the sky, she said
You can't shoot the stars out of the sky
You can try to deny it, but you can't shoot the stars out of the sky

And you can't rope a robin when she flies, she said
You can't rope a robin when she flies
You can try to deny it, but you can't rope a robin when she flies

Oh Lord (x6)
I'm in love with Sarina

I won't put a saddle on your mind, I said
And I won't put no shackles on your time
You can try to deny it, but I won't put a saddle on your mind

Oh Lord, oh Lord
Oh Lord, my Lord
Oh Lord, sweet Lord
I'm in love with Sarina
I'm in love with sweet Sarina
I'm in love...oh Lord.

Nebraska

I want to sleep in, but I’m walkin’ out the door
I want to make love, but I’m off to fight war
Well, there’s only one thing that I know for sure
I ain’t in Nebraska anymore

I want to be good, I want to go to church and pray
And then steal the preacher’s truck and drive drunkenly away
There’s only one thing that I know for sure
I ain’t in Nebraska anymore

Chorus:
Nebraska is a fine state
Mysterious and sexy like a blind date
Nebraska, so stoic and serene
I got lost in the cornfield of your dreams

I’m a scared desperado, I’m a fearless Casanova
I sometimes get confused between Osama and Jehovah
Well, there’s only one thing that I know for sure
I ain’t in Nebraska anymore

I’m a rodeo legend, I’m a hip hop city slicker
I’m a wealthy land owner, I’m a homeless cotton picker
There’s only one thing that I know for sure
I ain’t in Nebraska anymore

Chorus:
Nebraska is a fine state
Mysterious and sexy like a blind date
Nebraska, so stoic and serene
I got lost in the cornfield of your dreams

Nebraska is a mind state
Like Idaho or Texas, it’s a headspace
Nebraska, is the place I’m dreamin’ of
Turn me loose in the cornfield of your love
Turn me loose in the cornfield of your love
Turn me loose…in the cornfield…of your LOVE.

Storage Unit 209

Storage unit 209
That's where I store everything that's mine
If you're wondrin' where I spend my time
Go to storage unit 209

I was walkin' downtown
The wind was blowing the leaves around
Orange, and yellow, and brown
I've got no home, but I wear no frown

I've got my storage unit 209
That's where I store everything that's mine
If you're wondrin' where I spend my time
Go to storage unit 209

I was thinkin' today
That things have certainly changed
The way young lovers love one another
Must strike older people as strange

Storage unit 209
We've all got our storage units 209
That one's yours but, uh, this one's mine
I call it storage unit 209

It's my storage unit-- Number 209!
It's my storage unit-- Number 209.

I love it when it rains
I love the way the water hits the window pane
I love a hurricane
Jenna Marie, ooh yeah, that's her name
And I love it when it rains...

Storage unit 209
It's my storage unit 209
Don't try to save me girl, I'll be fine
I've got my storage unit 209

It's my storage unit-- Number 209 (x2)
It's my storage unit 209
Storage unit 209
Storage unit 209
If you invade it you might ruin it so leave it alone and don't touch it...
Ohhhhh, ohhhhhh, ohhhhhh.

Notes: From 2003, after gettin' evicted from a house-boat.

Friendster Testimonial

I saw you yesterday 

On Friendster--what can I say? 

I am not the spying kind

But there you were, oh Valentine! 

I love you

I don't even know you 

I couldn't help but check you out

Your profile told me all about

Your favorite movie, favorite books

Your houseplants and crochet hooks

I love you 

I don't even know you 

I'm gazing on your photograph

Oh, Darling, how you make me laugh

I love the plastic crown you wear

Your black jacket ocean stare

I love you 

And I don't even know you 

I saw the pictures of your friends 

I clicked their links and studied them

I read their testimonials 

They all think you're wonderful 

They love you 

I wish that I could know you, like they do

Oh, won't you be my Valentine? 

I see you have a sweet boyfriend

This makes me sad, but then again 

If he loves you, then I love him

For you I'll walk out on a limb 

I love him

And I can tell that he loves you

He loves you...

But not as much as I do

Won't you be my Valentine

I love you, I love you

Won't you be my Valentine?

I love you, I want you

I need you to be mine

I love you
