1. ELEVATION

High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here
A corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips
Eclipse, you elevate my soul

I've lost all self-control
Been living like a mole
Now going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

A star, lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you can educate my mind
Explain all these controls
I can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation

A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

Love, lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you

A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

Elevation...


2. LAST NIGHT ON EARTH

She feel the ground is giving way
But she thinks we're better off that way.
The more you take, the less you feel
The less you know the more you believe
The more you have, the more it takes today.

You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away
Give it away
You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away

Well she don't care what it's worth
She's living like it's the last night on earth
The last night on earth.

She's not waiting on a saviour to come
She's at the bus stop
With the News Of The World
And the sun, sun, here it comes.
She's not waiting for anyone.

You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away
Give it away.
You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away

Well she don't care what it's worth
She's living like it's the last night on earth
The last night on earth.

Slipping away, slip, slide
Too many slipping away.
The world turns and we get dizzy
Slipping away.

She's living
She's living next week now.
You know she's gonna pay you back somehow.

She hasn't been to bed in a week
She'll be dead soon, then she'll sleep.

You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away
Give it away
You gotta give it away
You gotta give it away

She already knows it hurts
She's living like it the last night on earth
The last night on earth
Last night on earth
Last night.


3. DON'T TAKE YOUR GUN TO TOWN

A young cowboy named Billy Joe grew restless on the farm
A boy filled with wonderlust who really meant no harm
He changed his clothes and shined his boots
And combed his dark hair down
And his mother cried as he walked out

(Chorus)
Don't take your guns to town son
Leave your guns at home Bill
Don't take your guns to town

He laughed and kissed his mom
And said your Billy Joe's a man
I can shoot as quick and straight as anybody can
But I wouldn't shoot without a cause
I'd gun nobody down
But she cried again as he rode away

(Chorus)

He sang a song as on he rode
His guns hung at his hips
He rode into a cattle town
A smile upon his lips
He stopped and walked into a bar
And laid his money down
But his mother's words echoed again

(Chorus)

He drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hand
And tried to tell himself he had become a man
A dusty cowpoke at his side began to laugh him down
And he heard again his mothers words

(Chorus)

Filled with rage then
Billy Joe reached for his gun to draw
But the stranger drew his gun and fired
Before he even saw
As Billy Joe fell to the floor
The crowd all gathered 'round
And wondered at his final words

(Chorus)
