Lyrics: Walking with the river by my side Just a-walking along with that cool, cool breeze Trickle, tumble, rumble, rolling down Down the mountainside I'm thirsty for a little river drink You know it's cold as ice CHORUS Wouldn't you, couldn't you, shouldn't you, didn't you know? This is where I wanna be right now If I could, if you could, if we could you know we would stay If we could stay right here we'd stay all year Picking wild berries as we go Oh in the sunny meadow Stepping to the rhythm of this song Keeps my spirits humming One foot then the other, yeah you know It's how the getting's gotten CHORUS The moon is like a big bright gleaming pearl Glowing in my direction, the stars are like diamonds The water on my skin is smooth as silk This is luxury baby, are you paying attention? Pearls, diamonds, silk, who wouldn't say I've got expensive taste CHORUS

The Sea 03:08
Lyrics: Someday I will build my home like a little caddisfly Construct it out of sand and stone or whatever I’d come by Or maybe I’d just be that stone and the river would take me Far downstream from my old home and on into the sea Oh oh the sea oh if I were the sea Everyone around the world would know a little piece of me I would like to travel far as a humble honeybee Store golden treasure in a jar and understand community And maybe I would meet my end defending my family And the wind would guide my body gently down to meet the sea Oh oh the sea oh if I were the sea Everyone around the world would know a little piece of me I’ve collected friends and I have given none away I never love them any less when I forget their names And I love some who drive big cars and some who wear bare feet But we all take off our shoes before we step into the sea Oh oh the sea oh if I were the sea Everyone around the world would know a little piece of me Oh oh the sea oh if we are the sea We all know at least a little piece of everything We all know at least a little piece of everything

Lyrics: I'm scared because it's scary to drive a car I'm scared because it's scary to drive a car I'm hurtling down the highway in the dark I'm hurtling down the highway in the dark It's raining and the windshield wipers leave streaks, leave streaks It's raining and the windshield wipers leave streaks, leave streaks It makes the lights look funny, and the cars look blurry, and the road look crooked, and it's scary to drive a car down the highway in the dark and the rain I'm scared because it's scary to drive a car I'm hurtling down the highway in the dark It's raining and the windshield wipers leave streaks, leave streaks It makes the lights look funny, and the cars look blurry, and the road look crooked, and it's scary to drive a car down the highway in the dark and the rain in the dark and the rain in the dark

Lyrics: Bet you got a flower in San Fran I'll be the one in Bellingham Find your next friend at the next show You can find love anywhere you go So you got yourself a Bellingham honey Sunshine smile even when it’s not sunny Mmm mmm, could you stay a little longer Not quite right but it could feel wronger So you’re my lover but you're not gonna be mine It’s my fault when I come down crying You always win when you show up thin and there’s not much there but the skin on skin Oh it’s nice to share when you don't add in So you got yourself a Bellingham honey Sunshine smile even when it’s not sunny Mmm mmm, could you stay a little longer Not quite right but it could feel wronger And honey I don’t want to change you Don’t want to take what you can’t loose But I don’t want to fall like a damn fool trying to be the one you run to It’s hot like a medium salsa Won’t get burned but you know that I want to So in tune but we're running out of time Pretty soon I’ll change my mind And you can find a new Bellingham honey Sunshine smile even when it’s not sunny Mmm mmm, you could stay a little longer Not quite right but it could feel wronger If it’s right then you’d better not wrong her

Pie Song 03:13
Lyrics: I’ve spilled lentils on my crotch because I’m eating while I’m driving And I’ll probably have kale stuck in my teeth upon arriving But I'm headed to places where the friends have friendly faces And at least one or two or three who would tell me You've got shit in your teeth Because I like to keep company that like me how I like to be And don’t mind the way we seem to people who don’t care We can eat pie in the morning because this life is far from boring And we’re adult enough to be courageous At least when it is advantageous Well Now I’m humming at the wheel because of this fine way I feel I’ve just come from a friend’s house, we drew up a lot of great ideas I think she’s the best Just knowing that we’re friends puts so much pride inside my chest Because I like to keep company that like me how I like to be And don’t mind the way we seem to people who don’t care We can eat pie in the morning because this life is far from boring And we’re adult enough to be courageous At least when it is advantageous Let’s be young while we've the time to come up with these silly rhymes To bake a whole shit ton of pie and eat it aaaaaaaaaallllll! Because I like to keep company that like me how I like to be And don’t mind the way we seem to people who don’t care We can eat pie in the morning because this life is far from boring And we’re adult enough to be courageous At least when it is advantageous
