Beautiful Mistake - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Beautiful Mistake
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
And your photo stills
In your wallet with your unpaid bills
And you show it like it means something
You could never know the pain it brings

And then here you are, standing in our drive
When absence suits you best
Your letters and your cards
But no return address

Now you come around
Now you come around
Your familiar sounds, and we are your beautiful
We are your beautiful mistake

Waiting for this day
Well I memorized the things I'd say
How you broke her when you disappeared
How I hear her say

"You'd make your Father proud"
It echoes through the years
As if I could forget all a Mother's tears

Now you come around
Now you come around
Your familiar sounds
And we are your beautiful mistake

Now you come around
Now you come around
Right to this town and we are your beautiful
We are your beautiful mistake

No don't say a word
Leave while you still can
Put out your light

Now I guess you're going
Your figures through the door
And your taillights faded
Like twenty years before

Now you come around
Now you come around
Your familiar sounds
And we are your beautiful mistake

Now you come around
Now you come around
Just to hear your sounds, we are your beautiful
And we are your beautiful mistake

We are, we are, we are, we are, we are
We are your beautiful mistake, your beautiful mistake
Your beautiful mistake

Happy Day Mama - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Happy Day Mama
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
I wrote a three page note
So I could ask you why you live your life
Disregard the pretense that you made
Come alive, come alive, watch the city go by
Turn me up, turn me up, turn me up, turn me up, turn me up

Your face is creased by the pillow case sheets
The bedroom is a mess, can I get some room service please?
Are you lucid? Drug induced?
Through bloodshot eyes the city come alive, come alive, come alive

Ah, how wonderful you are
Ah, how wonderful you are

Outside, you feel like you were born with a 'Kick-Me' sign
Taped permanently to your back
I can relate, video tape
You got a laugh when you fell face first on the floor

Ah, how wonderful you are
Ah, how wonderful you are

Are you listening? Are you breathing?
Give me something, I can believe in
Because you give me soul, illuminating everything
Aw, push it boy, push it like you never should

Understate, you were great
Summering out on the cape
I said last night, how I feel about you
But you wouldn't recall, no, you don't recall anything, do you?

Ah, how wonderful you are
Ah, how wonderful you are

I wrote a three page note
I wrote a three page note
I wrote a three page note
Happy day mm, happy day, happy day, happy day mm

Particle - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Particle
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
Your pain makes you beautiful, you love to lose control
And mediocrity's rewarded, set your standards low
In an imploding star or a burned out car, I implore you
In a carbon arc or a dim lit park, I implore you

Suck me in, I'm willin', I get off when you turn on
Let me be your fate, pour it on, pour it on
In a country fair or union square, I implore you
In a shrouded face, in a spray of mace, I implore you
I implore you

Cryptical, oh and I know you transcend when you succumb
One last shred of frailty left, embedded in our bones
In an imploding star or a burned out car, I implore you
Or a carbon arc or a dim lit park, I implore you
I implore you

Do it again, do it again, do it again, do it again
Do it again, do it again
Do it again, do it again
This is what they mean particle

Just do it again, do it again, do it again, do it again
Do it again, do it again
Do it again, do it again
This is what they mean particle
Particle, ohh ooo ohh
Particle, ohh ooo ohh ohh

Your pain makes you beautiful

Waxing Or Waning? - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Waxing Or Waning?
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
You in your coat, writing a note
'Dear Sal, I hope you'll agree'
Then catching a bus just after dusk
A one way trip to the city

A cold water flat, a hot plate, a hat
The want ads are strewn on the floor
And you get so mad, when your ma and dad
Reflect when you look in the mirror

But I see you there
Nude at the top of the stairs
But so far away
And I recall all
Your dreams and your schemes
Movin' me
The plans that we made
A street serenade

You can't be like your brother N. Mike
Content just to live and get by
I hope that you're fine
At thirteenth and nineteenth
Waxing or waning your call

And I see you there
A light at the top of the stairs
But so far away
And I recall all
Your dreams and your schemes
Movin' in me
The sense that it made
A street serenade

Live Again - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Live Again
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
Don't fear even though you're at a loss
I'm numb, a shell of empty thoughts
But you glow, you stretch and pull me out
Does that trouble you?
Does that trouble you?

Love me, hate me
Make me live again
I need you around

Heal me, hurt me
Make me live again
I want you around

So long I never had experienced
This bliss so how could I resist?
And I'm fine a little light-headed
Does that worry you?
I didn't mean to worry you

Love me, hate me
Make me live again
I need you around

Heal me, hurt me
Make me live again
I want you around

Now, retreating from the light
I love it when we fight
It makes me think
At least you still care

Give up, you're not going anywhere
Moonlight, illuminates your stare
And it's great, captivating you
Does that trouble you?
Do I trouble you?

Love me, hate me
Make me live again
I need you around

Heal me, hurt me
Make me live again
I want you around

Do you live again?
Can you live again?
Make me live again
Make me live again
Make me live again

Harmony (With Kenny Loggins) - Lyrics - Clint Black

Title: Harmony (With Kenny Loggins)
Artist: Clint Black
Composer(s): Kenny Loggins, Nicholas Clint Black

Lyric:
With the rivers runnin' to the sky, to rain upon the land
Our children's, children's sands of time are slippin' through our hands
Take heed in what's become of Eden, you and me from seed to seed
Just how does your garden grow? It's likely only Heaven knows

Harmony from the very start weren't we changin' it?
Don't we all agree that in every part
We're more than rearrangin' harmony

Do we move the mountains that we climb, just because we're here
Can we show the forests to the blind, to see the trees we clear?
Dear mother nature holds her ground, and our seeds are still around
Will we watch our garden grow to somethin' only heaven knows?

Harmony we're the only one's who can't live in it
Everything and everyone can get along in every way
In harmony

Harmony from the very start weren't we changin' it?
Dont we all agree that in every part
We're more than rearrangin' harmony?

I believe it's gonna be
When everybody here can sing along
Singin' in harmony
(Singin' in harmony)
Stand on up say the word
Together all of our voices can be heard
Everybody knows the key
To livin' in harmony
Aa aa aa

Take heed in what's become of Eden, you and me from seed to seed
Just how does your garden grow, it's likely only Heaven knows?

Harmony, we all just have to believe
(Harmony)
(Oo oo oo)
Don't we all agree that in every part
(Don't we all agree)
(Oo oo oo)
We're more than rearranging harmony

I believe it's gonna be when everybody here can sing along
(Singin' in harmony)
Singin' in harmony
(Singin' in, singin' in harmony, yeah)
Stand on up, I believe
(I believe in harmony)
I believe
(Harmony)
I believe
Say the word, harmony
(Everybody knows)
(Stand on up, I believe)
I believe
I know we can do it now
(Stand on up, I believe)
I believe, I believe in harmony
Yeah, harmony
(I believe in harmony)
Yeah yea yea yea
(i believe)
Everybody knows the key
To livin' in harmony

Allison Foley - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Allison Foley
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
Calmly, like a razor
I got us on the door
Or I got a tape of clerks
Someone left the night before

So I come over later
You're sittin' in that chair
Smokin' on your cigarette
Fingerin' you hair

So I get drunk and stoned
Every time you come around
So I get drunk and stoned
Every time you come around
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Twenty nine and aimless
You bartend down on fourth
Your parents pay insurance
And the Parson's Audit course

Over schooled and uninspired
Tust fund up your nose
All the wasted talent but, uh
Ain't that how it always goes?

So I get drunk and stoned
Every time you come around
So I get drunk and stoned
Every time you come around
Yeah, yeah, yeah

So long, Allison Foley
So long, bye, bye

Comeup higher, comeup higher, comeup
Comeup higher, comeup higher, comeup
Comeup higher, comeup higher, comeup
Comeup higher, take a step higher

Sometimes you understand the reasons
How you went astray
Least of all the answer
But it hurts to watch you waste away

So I get drunk and stoned
Every time you come around
So I get drunk and stoned
Every time you come around
Yeah, yeah, yeah

So drunk and stoned
So drunk and stoned
So long, so long
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

So long, Allison Foley
So long, bye, bye
So long, Allison Foley
So long, bye, bye

At The Stars - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: At The Stars
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
Maybe I should drop you at your door
Or leave tonight and vanish up the shore
Anywhere but here

It's three o'clock, we're driving in your car
You're screaming out the window at the stars
"Please don't drive me home"

Blame us 'cause we are who we are
Hate us 'cause you'll never get that far
And who'd suppose you would go?
I've already learned enough to know

Tell me all the places we could go
And count the headlights passing on the road
A long, long time ago

Blame us 'cause we are who we are
Hate us 'cause you'll never get that far
And who'd suppose that you would go?
I've already learned enough to know

Here we are, foreign to their world
Straight and composed, your sermons I can do without
And I finally found that everybody loves to love you
When you're far away

Could it be we've done something wrong?
We'd make it home to your place before dawn
Please, don't drive me home
Please, don't take me home

Blame us 'cause we are who we are
Hate us 'cause you'll never get that far
And who'd suppose that you would go?
I've already learned, I've already learned enough to know

Under You - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Under You
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
Along the edges, colors blur it seems familiar
While you read your magazine
I was counting all the markers
And California seemed to draw you like a siren
From a postcard, in a letter
Or a frame of film melting

Under you, I feel your breath move in, out slowly
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me
Take over me

A Hollywood flat where we'd laugh about our fortunes
Well we held jobs in this bar
Down at 3rd and San Vicente
And Ramen noodles at 4:30 in the morning
When we barely could survive
I was never more alive

Under you, I feel your blood flowing out slowly
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me
Take over me

You moved in slow degrees
A sudden memory
You're a Leonard Cohen song
But every now and then I'd swear
I see you standing on a sidewalk, in a restaurant
From a taxi passing by

Under you, I feel your breath move in, out slowly
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me
Take over me
Take over me
Take over me

Everything In 2'S - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: Everything In 2'S
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
Cut me out of this role
I can't play it anymore
It must be somethin' in the water here
Yeah yee

Give me up, I confess
I feel as though I'm livin' less
The strangest gravity affects my way
Because I was born incomplete
Drowning in the brevity
Kind of like a road you're travellin' on

Everything in two's
You often lose
You make me whole again
Everything in two's
You never knew
You'd make me whole again

Someone said, someone wrote
Floatin' tethered to a rope
So complicate me
I could use the weight
In how you move the scenery
Lover, how you mirror me
But stop me if you've heard it all before
'Fore

Everything in two's
You often lose
You make me whole again
Everything in two's
You never knew
You'd make me whole again

Now and again
You find yourself over your head
A cynical time, in you, find reason to live

Everything in two's
You often lose
You make me whole again
Everything in two's
You never knew
You'd make me whole again

Cut me out of this role
I can't play it anymore
It must be somethin' in the water here
Yeah yea

One More Murder - Lyrics - How Does Your Garden Grow - Better Than Ezra

Title: One More Murder
Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
One more murder in this town
Don't mean a thing just lock your doors
And drive around

One more murder in this town
Don't worry the rain will
Wash the chalk marks from the ground

Saturday night, shots ring out
Add one to the body count
You come alive to see another's end

Plead it to a lesser count
D.N.A. says without a doubt
In 3 to 5 you're on the streets again

One more murder in this town
Don't mean a thing
You get accustomed to the sound

One more murder in this town
Just block off the street and
Wrap the crime scene tape around

Hosanna, Hosanna
I can't feel a thing at all
Hosanna, Hosanna
I can't feel a thing
I can't feel a thing at all

And I can't feel a thing at all
I can't feel a thing at all
Well I can't feel a thing at all
I can't feel a thing

Saturday
Saturday night you're going out
Parking lot, a figure come about
Feel a piece click against your head

Pleading to his sympathy
"Take the car, I got a family"
You hear a laugh, "It don't mean shit to me"

One more murder
One more murder
One more murder in this town
In this town
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Calling from that porch again
Low dress blowing in the wind
I should have known I'd regret it later
But she blow like a Tsunami

Terra Cotta, window pane
Brown skin soaking up the rain
I should have been a cynical writer
But she don't care just where he be

I like it like that, I like it like that, I like it like that

She can move you, she can move you

Album: How Does Your Garden Grow
Artist: Better Than Ezra
Composer(s): Kevin Griffin

Lyric:
We're all a scene in Mona's dream

A Paris street, a quiet stream
Far away from Gabrini Green
Forgotten love at seventeen
Where her children got a chance
Not a dead-end street

'Cause some got religion
Some got drugs
Some got money and
Some got love

All of her days in a dry-eyed haze
Just another scene in Mona's dream

Lyric:
Hey, Mary Mack, dressed in black
Silver buttons up and down her crack
I know [Incomprehensible]
She broke needle now she can't sew

Walkin' the dog
I'm just a walkin' your dog
Well, if you don't know how to do it
Show you how to walk the dog

Ask your mama for fifteen cents
To see the elephant jump the fence
It jumped so high, touched the sky
Didn't get b-b-back till the 4th of July

Walkin' the dog
I'm just walkin' your dog
Well, if you don't know how to do it
Show you how to walk the dog

Mary, Mary, quite contrary
How does your garden grow?
Well, well, silver bells
And little bitty, bitty white shells
Pretty maids all in a row

Walkin' your dog
Just a walkin' your dog
Well, if you don't know how to do it
Show you how to walk the dog

Well, if you don't know how to do it
Show you how to walk the dog

Baby back, dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High hose, tippy toes
She broke the needle and she can sew
