Epic Adventure
03:34

I want to take an epic adventure
Some place mystical like Portsmouth, New Hampshire
Meet up with friends, really stir the pot
Unleash the real me, ready or not
Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do?
I’m gonna dance with all the girls, drink beer from this here stool
Run out to the place next door and play a game of pool
Write fourteen songs while the rest of you sleep
Embrace what it really means to be me
Try to keep up, if you think you can
And sing along with me, I learned this one in Army band
It’s some kind of funk, or some other name
After a while, they all sound the same
Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do?
I’m wanna dance with all the girls, drink beer from this here stool
Run out to the place next door and play a game of pool
Write fourteen songs while the rest of you sleep
Embrace what it really means to be me
Somebody really should stop him
Those aren’t his drinks you know
He’ll get us all kicked out of here
Before they start the show
I’m gonna dance with all the girls, drink beer from this here stool
Run out to the place next door and play a game of pool
Write fourteen songs while the rest of you sleep
Embrace what it really means to be me

Over and Over
01:26
|
|||
You have a great way of saying the same thing over and over
I'm not going anywhere else in the world
I'm so excited about this and it will take the day
Before I see the world the same as you
Live in the morning, hold on to the moment
The only thing that would make this better for me
Would be to know just what I should do
With the same thing over and over

Fly
02:44
|
|||
Here I stand on the edge
Looking down below
Thinking of the way we were
And why you had to go
Words I wish I could take back
Ringing in my head
Wanting to rewrite the script
With other lines instead
So I'll try to convince myself I can fly
And I can make it back to you If I try
Replay the arguments
Far too many times
Try to prove who's right or wrong
When we know the blame is mine
Find myself standing here
Looking off the ledge
Thinking of a leap of faith
And all those words you said
So I'll try to convince myself I can fly
And I can make it back to you If I try
So I'll try to convince myself I can fly
And you might take me back If I try

Tap Tap

Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Open up your eyes and straighten out a crooked line
Which pole will you discover?
Secret agent, working undercover
Keep quiet, don’t give your self away
Let them know you’ve got nothing else to say
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Open up your eyes and straighten out a crooked line
Speak in code if you say anything
Leave them baffled without a decoder ring
One direction then turn and go the other way
A different person in the night than in the day
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Tap-Tap, jump to the other side
Open up your eyes and straighten out a crooked line
Just close your eyes and go along
Here here, slip this on
Bite down and shut your eyes
A new you will materialize

Take A Minute
03:12
|
|||
You tell me
What you want me to say
Replace my words
Change every phrase
Turn my meaning
Back in on me
Help me see
What you want me to see
Take a minute to consider what you'll say
Take a minute consider that you might have to say you're sorry some day
Take a minute to assess the situation
Take a minute to think if you'd like to do things another way
What if you're wrong?
Did you give that any thought?
And if you are wrong
Do you know the damage that you've wrought?

Sunshine

|

Hello sunshine
Good to see you today
Hello sunshine
I’m so happy to say
Just thought you should know
I love you so
This thing we feel
Is oh so real
If I could design a perfect day for me
Seeing you is how it starts
Because nothing makes a perfect day
Like keeping you in my heart
Hello sunshine
Good to see you today
Hello sunshine
I’m so happy to say
Just thought you should know
I love you so
This thing we feel
Is oh so real
They say that I’m a lucky guy
Who am I to disagree?
Because nothing makes me luckier
Than having you with me

Everything Has A Cost
03:06
|
|||
You’d like to believe this is free
Your decisions belong to you
But you know that not the case
There’s a price you have to pay
Everything has a cost
Everything has a cost
You signed there on the line
Agreed to the deal
And suddenly you find
It’s all become too real
Everything has a cost
Everything has a cost

Different Town
02:11
|
|||
Some times I can’t tell up from down
Same hotel, but a different town
It blends and blurs becomes the same
The cost of admission when you play the game
Here I am in a different town
I guess I’d better take a look around
Talk to you to feel less alone
Find a way to feel I’m home
The other side of the world
Sleep when you can and keep up with the whirl
Three A.M., I’m still awake
Thinking of all the things I wish I could say
I do this all for you
What we decided we would do
In some time it will come to an end
And we’ll be in the same town again

Macaroons
02:18
|
|||
The bagels have declared independence
The bakery is up in arms!
There’s a flour cloud enveloping everything
Don’t trust the macaroons
You can say that about anyone
Their makeup is who they are
It’s not their fault, they were made that way
The baker holds the cards
The bagels have declared independence
The bakery is up in arms!
There’s a flour cloud enveloping everything
Don’t trust the macaroons
It seems so disingenuous
Hiding there in plain sight
The truth is there if you know where to look
On the edge of the night

Save Time
01:42
|
|||
I don’t want to save the world
That’s not what I’m here to do
But if I could save time
I’d spend it with you
Can you save time?
Will you save time?
So I can spend it with you
I don’t need to be a hero
I don’t need a big parade
I just need to save some time
So I can spend it with you
Can you save time?
Will you save time?
So I can spend it with you
It doesn’t seem all that hard
Spending my days with you
So I hope deep in my heart
You’ll see this through
Can you save time?
Will you save time?
So I can spend it with you
Can you save time?
Will you save time?
So I can spend it with you

Letter Seventeen Norcross
Whimsical indie pop from a one-man band. Except when other people help. Which is quite often. So it's not like a one-man band at all.
Oh. And there are songs about donkeys.
