Because you know that it was really a Jeff Buckley kind of day
The sky covered the city in that pretty kind of gray
I saw you on the corner and I thought I heard you say,
“Hey, don’t I know your silly face from somewhere?”
I said, “Yes, I do believe indeed that I remember you
With the pebble on your shoulder and the devil in your shoes.
Tell me, are they still dancing up a storm down at Kanga Roo’s?”
You said, “I’ll be there tonight, why don’t you come there?”
And I knew right away that you would break my heart
All the minutes of the day that you would break my heart
Yes I knew right away that you would break my heart
And I stayed anyway
Because you know that it was really a Jeff Buckley kind of day
As we walked along, I said, “I wish I’d seen him at Sine.
And I know it might sound strange but I’ll say it anyway -
Almost every day at some point I think of him.”
You said, “It’s awesome when someone like that gets inside your soul -
And I know he’s only human and it’s only rock and roll.
But to hear that voice and stare into those lonely eyes of coal…
How could you do anything but love him?”
And I knew then and there that you would break my heart
Completely fair and square that you would break my heart
Yes I knew then and there that you would break my heart
And I stayed anyway
When I got to Kanga Roo’s, there was an air about the place
I had to catch my breath the moment that I saw your face
We slow danced as the DJ played the third song from Grace
And when it ended, you kissed me like you meant it
Now a month has passed, there's been no sign of you in my life
“So Real” inside my head, this crazy dream you’d be my wife
The pain is somewhere in between a safety pin and butter knife
But there’s no way I ever could resent it
‘Cause I knew all along you would break my heart
No matter right or wrong that you would break my heart
Yes I knew all along that you would break my heart
And I stayed anyway
Because you know that it was really a Jeff Buckley kind of day

Fat on humble pie
I used to be thin
Now I'm fat on humble pie
I used to be thin (Anorexic)
Now I'm fat on humble pie
Get on a diet
Gotta get on a diet
'Cause I'm fat on humble pie
I used to be thin (Anorexic)
Now I'm fat on humble pie

One World

A world gone crazy
Hard to know just where to turn
I walk around in fear
It's all gonna crash and burn
I get down on my knees and pray
With these tears here in my eyes for all humanity
I hope we can remember
That it's one world
Yes it's one world
It's only one world we've all been given
Said it's one world
Yes it's one world
It's only one world we all have to live in
We got tempers
And we take them out sometimes
With such hostility
Words go off like landmines
I just wish we all could say
That we've come to compromise
No more insanity
And yes we do remember that it's one world
Now I may not agree with everything you say to me
And you may think I'm totally in the wrong
But the good that we could bring
By letting real freedom ring
Is the very thing that helps me sing this song
Sing the song!
Turn on the TV and as far as I can tell
It really looks as though we're all headed straight for hell
Those who deny it every day and refuse to recognize
Chance of calamity
Just all need to remember that it's one world
All you leaders with your hands on all the power
Have lost your decency
In what could be your finest hour
There must surely be a way
To interact with calm replies and not with vanity
We just hope you all remember
That it's one world
