First World Blues 02:32
lyrics
download
Opened up the paper Couldn't believe what it said There won't be no more twinkies Have to eat donuts instead Talkin 'bout hard times These first world problems of mine Running late for work According to my gps clock My starbuck's was closed, I had to drive another block Talkin 'bout hard times These first world problems of mine The restaurants always serve me, too much too eat Then I have to toss the leftovrs at the end of the week Livin in the first world ain't no walk in the park But my mom always said, "Be happy where you are." I need a work out Off to the gym I go But the tv there is always tuned to the wrong show Talkin 'bout hard times These first world problems of mine Been a long day I'll have a glass when I get home All out of Pinot, I'm gonna have to drink merlot Talkin 'bout hard times These first world problems of mine

Bigger in Texas 01:13

Throw farther, mighty Cowboys Throw farther Run faster, mighty Cowboys Run faster Hit harder, mighty Cowboys Cause everything's bigger in Texas Well we win big And we lose big Cause that's the way we do it round here We're America's team So come drink beer and cheer Although we've only won one playoff game In sixteen year Throw farther Run Faster Cause everything's bigger in texas Throw farther Run faster The Cowboys are gonna win this one for Texas

Don't Send Them Away 02:30
lyrics

Well they sent me off to fight in a far off land Halfway ‘cross the world - you know I guess they had a plan And I’m home, but the bombs there left me half a man Let’s make sure this never happens again Cause we left four thousand souls in the desert sand And two thousand more so far in Afghanistan Now they say we might be heading into good old Iran But let’s make sure this doesn’t happen again So I’d say, “March with me!” if I still had legs I’d say, ”Let’s hoist our fists!” if I still had hands to wave Just think how many men and women we could save If we just don’t send them away Now a soldier every day takes his life by his own hand Killin’ takes it’s toll in a way that you just can’t understand So there’s wives in empty beds, and kids who can’t hold daddy’s hand Let’s make sure this never happens again So I’d say, “March with me!” if I still had legs I’d say,”Let’s hoist our fists!” if I still had hands to wave Just think how many men and women we could save If we just don’t send them away So senators and congressmen, please be sane For every life that is not lost there is so much that can be gained What if they tried to throw a war and no one came These tragedies would never happen again So march for me, cause I don’t have legs Hoist your fists for all of those who don’t have hands to wave Raise your voice for all the men and women we could save If we just don’t send them away Raise your voice for all the men and women we could save If we just don’t send them away

Someone's 03:27
lyrics

Who's it gonna be next time You want to send someone off to die And even those that come back, have a different look in their eye Then some families fall apart And some keep a gun by their bed And every once in awhile think about Holding it up to their head But they're someone's father Someone's mother Someone's sister Someone's brother Someone's daughter Someone's son But if you send them away They won't be for long Will it be some poor kid Just trying to pay for school Or a kid who saw the movies And he thought the guns we're cool Will it be a senator's son A president's daughter Or the faceless masses Useless fodder Going off to battles they didn't choose Are they fighting me? Are they dying for you? Someone's father Someone's mother Someone's sister Someone's brother Someone's daughter Someone's son But if you send them away They won't be for long You wouldn't have to send no one next time If there was no next time at all Keep the mothers and the fathers Posting their pictures on the wall All the laughter, all the tears All the christmases All the years Moments captured - living lives Instead off to war, to kill and die Because they're someone's father Someone's mother Someone's sister Someone's brother Someone's daughter Someone's son But if you send them away They won't be for long credits
