(Lyrics by: Cola) In the mystic hour I hear you call my name out Under a sky of amber How you smile erases all doubt In your eyes, it’s shining Hope for a life we dreamed of The future’s so bright, it’s blinding Ah… I’ll treasure every evening with you Words can’t express this feeling In the mystic hour I hear you hum a song Crowned with wildflowers I can’t help but whistle along On my skin, it’s glowing Memory as warm as sunlight Joy from the past is showing Ah… I’ll treasure every evening with you Words can’t express this feeling I’m right by your side, you see You’ll never need to look for me It’s where I’ll always be In the mystic hour Somehow the sun has frozen Our pinkies are crossed together Promising we’ll save this moment In our hearts, it’s beaming Peace in the days we share now This time, we’re not just dreaming Ah… I’ll treasure every evening with you Words can’t express this feeling

(Lyrics by: Ahasuerus) Fireworks, if it works, if it lights, if it burns Dynamite, if it fights, if it bites, let it alite Kerosene, if its mean, if it breathes, let it be Matchstick, if it hits, if it kicks, let it rip Oh! You're a spacewalker, you're talking to the hunters You're a spacewalker, getting much stronger and when you die, there you'll lie, carbonated in the infinite When you die, when you lie, you'll be higher up than the Icarus Meteor, hear you roar, embark on a cosmic tour Black Hole, set the goal, lose control, off we go Shooting Star, there you are, oh so far, leaving Scars Solar Flare, so much glare, super rare, Burning air Oh! You're a spacewalker, you're talking to the hunters You're a spacewalker, getting much stronger and when you die, there you'll lie, carbonated in the infinite When you die, when you lie, you'll be higher up than the Icarus You're a spacewalker, your legacy lives longer You're the spacewalker, let it Burn, burn, burn Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn, ya!

Run-Off 03:15
I’d like to meet you in the morning dawn The sun completes you and your - shine I packed indifference in this cold heart of mine But like the seasons I will - change Turn the lights off and start the music Take me in your arms Turn the world off and close the curtains It won’t do any harm And in the absence of a basic emotion Just smile and - laugh Turn the lights off and start the music Take me in your arms Kill the void and destroy the feeling It won’t do any harm And now I’m longing for - your song I know you’re nearing that - run-off groove Turn the lights off and start the music Take me in your arms There’s no silence as my mind wanders So duct tape the world "Stop the music, stop the music" That’s what you said And when the song is over, and I’m here alone It’s in the music! It’s in the music! Oooh Oooh I'll carry it with me that spirit that lives, on and on

Rollin’ tollin’ heavy load, I got the sack on my back Little red from reality’s smack so get me on the track I played my dreams through a loud Telecaster My world’s still spinning, faster and faster This life was only a ride from day to night And every morning was a chance to do it right Flash back to the rotten past and see myself just wait Something will make it happen before it’s too late Mythology - Mythology I left my hopes buried in another town And now I’m running back, I got my shovel in the ground Criss-crossing train cars are screaming in my head I’m just a tattered rag hanging by the final thread Mythology - Mythology Spurs on my boots, brown bags for loot Old country songs Showdown at noon, and I’m gone so soon I never stay long

(Lyrics by: Cola) Let’s get loud, turn up the sound Knock ‘em dead, at the end, take a bow Bursting out, shaking the ground Kick it into overdrive! (Yeah!) You lived a life on mute Didn’t have a clue Till you felt a spark running up from the strings How did you feel? What did you think? Suddenly you can’t keep it in, gotta sing (Ahh…) Feel the pulse inside your soul (Ahh…) No more room for doubt Kick it into overdrive Show yourself that you’re alive Kick it into overdrive Blow your speakers out So, let’s get loud, turn up the sound Knock ‘em dead, at the end, take a bow Bursting out, shaking the ground Amplify it, play it back Scream it to the stars Self-appointed maniac Wailing on guitar Let’s get loud, turn up the sound Kick it into overdrive! (Come on!) They put you on the stage Every note you play Resonating thunder and wonder and noise Spill all your tears Sing all your joy You could make the world move with only your voice (Ahh…) Send the signal of your heart (Ahh…) No more room for doubt Kick it into overdrive Show the world that you’re alive Kick it into overdrive Blow their speakers out So, let’s get loud, turn up the sound Knock ‘em dead, at the end, take a bow Bursting out, shaking the ground Amplify it, play it back Scream it to the stars Self-appointed maniac Wailing on guitar Let’s get loud, turn up the sound Kick it into overdrive! (All right) Let’s get loud, turn up the sound Whispers crescendo into a shout Let’s get loud, turn up the sound More and more, show what you’re all about Let’s get loud, turn up the sound Knock ‘em dead, at the end, take a bow Bursting out, shaking the ground Amplify it, play it back Scream it to the stars Self-appointed maniac Wailing on guitar Let’s get loud, turn up the sound Kick it into overdrive! (All right!)

Get up! - Cock-A-Doodle-Dude!

She was a rolling girl, love to roll that boy She's breaking out the seaweed, gonna grill him and enjoy She is the Rolling Girl, she got that Factory Boy She says get down on the floor, "Honey you don't gotta say no more" But little does he know, he's gonna be a carpet burrito roll She is the Rolling Girl, she got that Factory Boy Now he's strapped to that Chevy's roof, just like the time with his golden tooth and now it becomes all too clear, as the Pawn Shop is getting near She is the Rolling Girl, she got that Factory Boy

Love Nectar 04:02
Saw a witch mixing up some potion, love nectar baby Had a whiff and in a foul motion, I’m taken away~ Rocking boat on a dark ocean, bats swarm up ahead Helplessness, slow approaching, I’m drifting away~ Candle light on the dripping stones Get underwhelmed by the great unknown Wandering down a memory - graveyard! Images that tease your brain In the dreaming hours, no logic remains So you think the wrong things - again Castle walls, jangling metal, smashes the stone Shadows move, in Disco motions, burning away~ Candle light on the dripping stones Get underwhelmed by the great unknown Entire years just roll by - oh my! To live a life without regrets You know it could be done But I can’t say that’s how it works - oh my!

I won't hear it anymore from you Just what it is, that I can do See me leaving the couch, I’m my way Gonna make it to that fridge, 12 times today My freedom is directly linked to the amount of Pepsis I can drink Don’t you tell me lie, don’t you give me a sigh, I’m gonna get my juice tonight, no fight I won’t hear you say, “Don’t drink seven” And if you stop me, you won’t make your way to Heaven! I’m gonna get the government after you ‘Cuz you’re a war criminal now! BABY! My freedom is directly linked to the amount of Pepsis I can drink O’ Canada was founded one belief, the freedom to rot one’s teeth My freedom is directly linked to the amount of Pepsis that I can drink And I - Just - Drank - 12 PEPSIS

So many years away from my old crime trails I busted out of the Yellowknife jail So I went fishing, dreaming of younger days That’s when the Finncraft came ripping my way We’re known all around our crimes are cereal Vanish in the air we’re all mysterious Gonna grab a kernel make a crop circle Gonna get us some Kansas corn I have the greatest plan for what our crew should steal It's time to burgle an entire corn field Hop in the van, we're headin' to the USA We're taking home our own all-you-can-eat buffet! Pick all the corn, pick all the corn I want the corn Cockadoodle, it’s time to move, staked out the joint for a day or two Our sacks are ready gotta couple machetes, and there’s plenty gas in the tank Know the whole place like the back of our hand, we know where to go if things get bad We gonna jack something precious and gold some good ol’ Kansas Corn Just want that corn, just want that corn I want the corn Calling shotgun coz they've got shotguns they're shooting at us so we gotta run The hounds are coming and they're pretty mad coz we gotta couple corbs in the can And now the heist is done without a fail Alright but why is the army on our trail? Where is the rocket launcher in this ol’ van? Should’a never let you talk me into this oh man! Topeka Kansas Corn Heist! Topeka Kansas Corn Heist! Topeka Kansas Corn Heist! Topeka Kansas Corn Heist!
