Traffic Jam In His Head
Traffic Jam In His Head
He's got tension in his neck
Traffic Jam In His Head
He doesn't know what to do next
He's not moving on the road
He is moving too slow
That's what she said
So he is starting to sweat
Chorus
Then after some time
He hung on to the horn tonight
Cus they had made dinner reservations
And he needed directions
Bridge
After what seemed like a long wait
He can keep going straight
But they tired and late
They are late and tired
Just a little late

Oh His Best Behaviour

On His Best Behavior
On His Best Behavior
He'll find his body behind the bar
On His Best Behavior
Where there is lots and lots of stars
He was going nowhere
After throwing the wooden chairs
Right now he doesn't care
Lashing out now to swear
Chorus
He knows what he has to do
While he is willing to argue
Pound his fist correctly
Kick his legs around firmly
Bridge
He put a lot of energy
Blocking the first punch
He Turned his head more sharply
With a hit and crunch
As he feels lucky
On His Best Behavior

Still Fighting A Headache
Still Fighting A Headache
It was a bad one today, he put on his shades
Still Fighting A Headache
They are on his head if it is too late
He was hurting too bad to eat
His gaze dropped to the evening feast
He's using this time to relax
He reclined and then leaned back
Chorus
The pain is dancing in his eyes
By The first touch of sunlight
He was rubbing the back of his neck
He cancelled his schedule to get some rest
All that night he didn't sleep
He moved in his bed and seat
It was becoming annoying
He hoped it would wear off by morning
Bridge
He was so very tired
He thinks he broke the record
Still Fighting A Headache
But it's pretty standard
Still Fighting A Headache

It Hit Him Like A Ton Of Bricks
Today was Tuesday morning
His girlfriend is calling
She is coming down for breakfast
He didn't seem to notice
He looked up at the surprise
It didn't seem heavy at the time
It's almost nine - thirty now
He gasped... oh wow!
Chorus
It Hit Him Like A Ton Of Bricks
She could be here any minute
It Hit Him Like A Ton Of Bricks
He got ready pretty quick
He stepped out of the shower
Then she called again
A few minutes later
He was still drenched
He rushed out with his wallet
He can't drive on an empty stomach
They made one stop later
Having their breakfast at the restraunt
Bridge
They lost some big bucks
They blinked and it again, counting the zeros
They need a bit of luck
It's more than they can swallow
The nagging feeling in their stomachs

Bobby Is Green With Envy
Bobby Is Green With Envy
He has done something very foolishly
Bobby Is Green With Envy
He tried to kiss Cindy
She nearly ran him down slapping face
Without hope his heart would break
He tried to take what Andy has
She vented her wrath
Chorus
Andy got her some ice
While Bobby managed to stay alive
It was nothing but pure jealousy
It was a fight against his legacy
Bridge
Andy promoted her the slugger
Cindy to be a very good fighter
She is the bar champion
Bobby was bloodied and beaten
His drink is dry he is leaving
His drink is dry he is leaving

Cindy Wasn't So Happy

Cindy Wasn't So Happy
She is turning 46
This age makes her heart sick
She had the day off with Andy
Cindy Wasn't So Happy
She is nervously baiting her lower lip
This day she wants to skip
Bobby defeated Andy
Cindy Wasn't So Happy
This trio didn't click
She stopped it very quick
Bobby was very angry
Cindy Wasn't So Happy
She opened odd gifts
They created a stink
She had a free beer from Andy
Cindy Wasn't So Happy
His heart isn't that big
She released her grip
Then she smiled sadly
Cindy Wasn't So Happy

Bobby Had The Hiccups
Bobby Had The Hiccups
Andy and Cindy turned to watch
Bobby Had The Hiccups
He hugged his beer he was ready to launch
He got up way too fast
He was extremely smashed
People say they know that face
In this event they don't have to wait
Chorus
He was loud and very sleepy
He drank it too quickly
It passed over his vocals cords
It knocked their bottles to the floor
Bobby was on a roll at the bar
People say it was the best one so far
They didn't let the irratition show
Andy and Cindy wanted to go
Bridge
Bobby was so amazed
Later on in their bar he explained
His major hiccups
How he tried to hit them but they ducked
He deserves to be praised

Shaking Off The Rain

Shaking Off The Rain
Shaking Off The Rain
He went to get his truck and chain
Shaking Off The Rain
He rides down a muddy lane
He said his girlfriend's name
She was interrupted by the train
It was smokey and loud
He applied his breaks under a cloud
He stopped cold to listen
The storm crept into his vision
She looks emotionally exhausted
Her windows we're frosted
Chorus
He is dazzled by her headlights
She placed a hand outside
Standing she is ready to leave
He took a moment to breathe
The cold rain they swallowed down
He pulled the car out
That's sweet, but it doesn't drive anymore
She had left it before
Bridge
He went back to his farm
Suddenly she was calm
After that terrible experience
For the rainy season
He's taking her in his arms

Three Mild Sprains

Three Mild Sprains
Three Mild Sprains
His voice had cracked with the strain
Three Mild Sprains
But he does not complain
He slipped and hurt his ankle
The scene looked too horrible
He fell down and twisted his wrist
Those big steps really do exist
Chorus
He bent down and pulled his back
He needs an ice pack
Then a quick cry of pain
During the time frame
He lies down and elevates his feet
In his spare time he writes songs and reads
There is swelling around, the ankle, wrist and back
Taking his afternoon nap
Bridge
This happened months and weeks ago
He's not leaving today or tomorrow
He's bored four to eight times a day
But that goes away
Mostly on his brain

He Stood On A Scale
05:07

He Stood On A Scale
He Stood On A Scale
On an impulse he had to exhale
He Stood On A Scale
He guessed if the diet fails
He is dead, dead, dead
He shook his sleepy head
The pounds had sank under his weight
That might have been a mistake
Chorus
He muttered and then swore
Beside the bathroom door
After he had racked his brains
He might have put on a little water gain
His doctor called today
It's the junk food throw it away
He looked like he wanted to eat it
In a different time he could quit
Bridge
He finished his breakfast
It was the poorest and unhealthiest
He didn't weigh himself
He can't do anything about his health
A diet is the hardest

Yard Work On 4th Of July
Chorus
Yard Work On 4th Of July
Bobby had asked Cindy why?
Yard Work On 4th Of July
It's suppose to be nice outside
He went out there this morning
Cindy know it must be boring
If he doesn't like the heat
And it's a good 100 degrees
Chorus
He went in the front yard
Then walked in to the backyard
He has a bad sunburn
Cindy is worried and concerned
Chorus
Bridge
Now he can not rest
The heaviness is in chest
And he's completely beat

Ears To Hear
His cold beer
He was in the clear
To have it right here
Ears To Hear
He has no fear
He got his rear in gear
His thirst was near
Ears To Hear
His decision was made
It has a excellent taste
He broke into cheers
Ears To Hear
He grinned into his drink
He tossed it to the sink
He had been drinking for a year
Ears To Hear
Yeah, yeah he won't quit
Yeah, yeah he took a long sip
Nobody wants to interfere
Ears To Hear
