I'm a detective, private investigator I have questions. Can you answer them? I have evidence, I have a witness She said she saw you, do you have an alibi? I'm your teacher, your professor I'm your priest, I'm your preacher And you've been acting up, I've had my eye on you If you keep acting up I'm gonna have to ask you to Step into my office I've got some things to discuss with you Let's talk business, run some numbers Make arrangements, I'll meet you halfway there I have plans, come meet with me Hear my proposal. We could start a company I'll be your partner, I'll be your friend I'll be your enemy just so you'll keep me closer I'll count on you, you'll count on me I'll always hear you out, all you have to do is Step into my office I've got some things to discuss with you Step into my office I've got some things to discuss with you

Ambien 04:22
Time, slipping, through the cracks and seams Time, racing, stops for none but dreams Can I slow down the hands on the wall? Can you slow down, I'm trying to keep control I wait, I'll wait, I've waited for what feels like a century For the right thing, the right one The hours, they come so slowly but the years fly faster and you grow further away Please stay Don't wake me up, don't wake me up I'd sleep for days Don't wake me up, don't wake me up Chance, slipping, with the rising sun Chance, I'm losing what little I had to run with If I close my eyes will I forget? If I let go, do you promise to come back? I wait, I'll wait, I've waited for what feels like a century For the right thing, the right one The hours, they come so slowly but the years fly faster and you grow further away Please stay Don't wake me up, don't wake me up I'd sleep for days Don't wake me up, don't wake me up Pulling down the window shades So I can keep you for the night Please stay Don't wake me up, don't wake me up I'd sleep for days Don't wake me up, don't wake me up

My Drum 03:44
In my own house, I make my own rules I beat my own drum, I beat my own drum Until my hands bleed, I beat my own drum I beat my own drum, I beat my own drum Follow close behind and you're never left alone March in time to the sound and make your rhythms known Follow me, follow me And we can beat our own drum Beat our own drum I beat my own drum, I beat my own drum I beat my own drum, I beat my own drum The tempo's getting faster and we're tearing up the road You know I'd rather die that slow down for a mile Just keep it up, and follow me, follow me And we can beat our own drum Beat our own drum I beat my own drum, I beat my own drum I beat my own drum, I beat my own drum Until my hands bleed, I beat my own drum I beat my own drum, I beat my own drum

Whip 04:02
Remember when the radio was still the king? To win the tickets, you'd call it in They had the latest on who's coming to town Airwaves, frequencies, magic & sound. Remember when we used to wonder who Who wrote this song? When was it on? Where are they from? Now it's just a matter of reaching in- Inside our pockets for our best friend Arguments are so passé One touch, it gives away All the answers in your hand One touch, at your command I feel naked, I feel strange when I'm without I feel naked, I feel strange, I can't go without Remember when the TV set was your best bet For every piece of news that you could get It may have killed the radio star Now it's a martyr for the digital war Remember when we used to see eye to eye? Making conversations? And trading explanations? Now it's just a matter of reaching out Inside our pockets for our best friends Arguments are so passé One touch, it gives away All the answers in your hand One touch, at your command I feel naked, I feel strange when I'm without I feel naked, I feel strange, I can't go without Why do I feel like there's something missing in my life? When I go two minutes without it, I feel I can't survive Arguments are so passé One touch, it gives away All the answers in your hand One touch, at your command

Peek 03:52
Peeking out my eyes, analyze the scene He's looking for the young, the young naïve Specimens, prospects, searching for a dream Finding themselves every chance it seems He's biting with his teeth, he's nipping at your heels He's got you running for the hills Believe me when I say, it will never go away Until his game you agree to play It will never go away, it will never go away Come on take a peek, tell me what you see Hand over my throat though I can barely breathe Beat like thunder my heart won't stop Just one look at the temperature drops He keeps singing in my head He keeps singing in my head The greatest power in man's creation The voice that rouses every temptation Reaches inside the idle man The poisoned seed spread inside their brains He's biting with his teeth, he's nipping at your heels He's got you running for the hills Believe me when I say, it will never go away Until his game you agree to play It will never go away, it will never go away Come on take a peek, tell me what you see Hand over my throat though I can barely breathe Beat like thunder my heart won't stop Just one look at the temperature drops He keeps singing in my head He keeps singing in my head
