Conjunction Junction 02:17 lyrics buy track Conjunction Junction, what's your function?Hookin' up words and phrases and clausesConjunction Junction, how's that function? I got three favorite cars that get most of my job doneConjunction Junction, what's their function? I got "and", "but", and "or",They'll get you pretty far."And:" That's an additive, like "this and that""But:" That's sort of the opposite, "Not this *but* that"And then there's "or," O-R, when you have a choice like "This or that." "And," "but," and "or" get you pretty far!Conjunction Junction, what's your function? Hooking up two boxcars and making 'em run rightMilk and honey, bread and butter, peas and riceHey that's nice!Dirty but happy, digging and scratching,Losing your shoe and a button or twoHe's poor but honest, sad but trueBoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!Conjunction Junction, what's your function? Hooking up phrases and clauses that balance, like: Out of the frying pan and into the fire.He cut loose the sandbags,But the balloon wouldn't go any higher.Let's go up to the mountainsOr down to the sea. You should always say "thank you,"Or at least say "please."Conjunction Junction, watch that functionGonna get you there if you're very carefulConjunction Junction, what's your functionGonna get you there if you're very careful 5. Butts (bonus track) 00:37 info 6. Birdhouse in Your Soul 02:49 lyrics buy track I'm your only friend, I'm not your only friend But I'm a little glowing friend But really I'm not actually your friend But I am I have a secret to tell From my electrical well It's a simple message and I'm leaving out the whistles and bells So the room must listen to me Filibuster vigilantly My name is blue canary One note, spelled L-I-T-E My story's infinite Like the Longines Symphonette, "It doesn't rest."Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch Who watches over you Make a little birdhouse in your soul Not to put too fine a point on it Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet Make a little birdhouse in your soul While you're at it Keep the nightlight on inside the birdhouse in your soul Not to put too fine a point on it Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet Make a little birdhouse in your soulThere's a picture opposite me Of my primitive ancestry Which stood on rocky shores And kept the beaches shipwreck-free Though I respect that a lot I'd be fired if that were my job After killing Jason off And countless screaming Argonauts Bluebird of friendliness Like guardian angels it's always near (chorus) 7.

I'm Going to Go Back There Someday 03:11 lyrics buy track This looks familiar, vaguely familiarAlmost unreal, yet -- it's too soon to feel yetClose to my soul and yet so far awayI'm going to go back there somedaySun rises, night falls, sometimes the sky callsIs that a song there, and do I belong there?I've never been there, but I know the wayI'm going to go back there somedayCome and go with me, it's more fun to shareWe'll both be completely at home in midairWe're flyin', not walkin', on featherless wingsWe can hold onto love by invisible stringsThere's not a word yet for old friends you've just metPart heaven, part space, or have I found my place?You can just visit, but I plan to stayI'm going to go back there somday 9. Hovering Sombrero 02:11 lyrics buy track Hey hovering sombreroGently waving in the air above the meadowSoftly floating in the sky outside the windowHovering sombrero don't be shyDon't... don't be shy - Don't be... terrifiedWhen you take yourself for grantedFeel rejected and unwantedKnow you're never just a hatYou're never only just a hat, you knowHovering sombreroHovering sombreroTime is flying like an arrowAnd the clock hands go so fast they make the wind blowAnd it makes the pages of the calender go Flying out the window one by oneTil a hundred years are on the front lawnAnd the old familiar things are mostly all goneBut the old sombrero just keep hovering onHovering sombrero hover onDon't be burdened by regretsOr make your failures an obsessionOr become embittered or possessedBy ruined hopes, remember...If you take yourself for grantedFeel rejected and unwantedKnow you're never just a hatYou're never only just a hat, you knowHovering sombreroHovering sombrero 10. Sweet Baby James 02:55 lyrics buy track There is a young cowboy, he lives on the rangeHis horse and his cattle are his only companionsHe works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyonsWaiting for summer, his pastures to changeAnd as the moon rises he sits by his fireThinking about women and glasses of beerAnd closing his eyes as the doggies retireHe sings out a song which is soft but it's clearAs if maybe someone could hear:Goodnight you moonlight ladiesRockabye sweet baby JamesDeep greens and blues are the colors I chooseWon't you let me go down in my dreamsAnd rockabye sweet baby JamesThe first of December was covered with snowSo was the turnpike from Stockbridge to BostonThe Berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frostingWith ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to goThere's a song that they sing when they take to the highwayA song that they sing when they take to the seaA song that they sing of their home in the skyMaybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleepBut singing works just fine for meGoodnight you moonlight ladiesRockabye sweet baby JamesDeep greens and blues are the colors I chooseWon't you let me go down in my dreamsAnd rockabye sweet baby James 11. Always Look on the Bright Side of Life 02:49 lyrics buy track Some things in life are bad They can really make you mad Other things just make you swear and curse When you're chewing on life's gristleDon't grumble, give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the bestAnd always look on the bright side of lifeAlways look on the light side of lifeIf life seems jolly rotten There's something you've forgotten And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing When you're feeling in the dumps Don't be silly chumps Just purse your lips and whistle, that's the thingAnd always look on the bright side of lifeAlways look on the right side of lifeFor life is quite absurd And death's the final word You must always face the curtain with a bow Forget about your sinGive the audience a grin Enjoy it, it's your last chance anyhowSo, always look on the bright side of deathJust before you draw your terminal breathLife's a piece of shitWhen you look at itLife's a laugh and death's a joke, it's trueYou'll see it's all a showKeep 'em laughing as you goJust remember that the last laugh is on youAnd always look on the bright side of lifeAlways look on the right side of life about In which Marian Call covers some of her very favorite songs, at the request of her Kickstarter backers (www.kickstarter.com/projects/mariancall/marian-call-european-adventure-quest).
