(LIKE A) FIREFLY
Music by Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
Lyrics by Jon Hoernig & Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
Like a firefly to a blinding light
You'd always come when I'd call your name
Flitting around in your downtown gown
Driving all the boys insane
And though you may be pretty
A sweet thing from the city
You're still minding me like a hound
You haunt my days and you brighten my nights
You melt me with your frozen stare
And you laugh at all the little boys
Who follow you everywhere
And girl, you always taunt me
Telling me you want me
But I can't seem to fight - it makes me feel all right
There comes a time when a man must be a man
It's time that you played by my rules
I'll teach you more than you could possibly learn
In all your precious Catholic schools
But don't seem so sad
You'll always drive me mad
Though I don't know what's gone wrong
Just once, won't you listen to the song

NEVER ALONE
Music & Lyrics by Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
Someone called the Doctor, but nothing's wrong
Just been a little homesick all year long
I feel all right, like I told you once before
But this time, I'm out of my head and I want some more
Take a trip inside your mind
Leave your worries far behind
Dream a little dream
And sing this little song
"I ain't never, no I ain't never gonna be alone"
Step right up and don't be shy
Close your eyes and open wide
Take my friend, the Usher
And help him read the news
'Cause he's been walking around like he aint' got nothing to lose
So dream a little dream
And sing this little song
"I ain't never, no I ain't never
I ain't never, no I ain't never gonna be alone"
Take a trip inside your mind
Leave those inhibitions far behind
The place where I feel love
Is the place I call my home
Well I ain't never, no I ain't never
I said I ain't never, no I ain't never
I ain't never, no I ain't never gonna be alone

WHAT'S FOUND
Music by Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
Lyrics by Jon Hoernig & Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
I don't need to hear your consolation
No I didn't mean to bring you down
The truth you point me to
Maybe that was truth to you
But you're not the one looking to see
What's found
Riding on a train to my salvation
People see me aging every mile
The place I'm headed for
Might be something even more
Then when I first imagined I could
Make the people smile, 'cause I...
Chorus:
Feel all right in my own head
Ain't that what it's all about
I've been searching for so long
And I believe I finally got it figured out
Now, I don't want to cause an altercation
Lord, I only want to make you smile
I believe it's true
And I've got something just for you
I know you're going to like it
Let me take you for a ride, 'cause I...
Chorus:
Feel all right in my own head
Ain't that what it's all about
I've been searching for so long
And I believe I finally got it figured out

KATIE MOON
Music & Lyrics by Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
Ripplin' down under the ocean
I feel your waves caress my face
It feels so sweet, I cannot tell you
How I miss you, girl
I'm trying to forget the pain
In a place in my heart
But it just keeps getting stronger, girl
Katie Moon, Katie Moon
Katie Moon, Katie Moon
Let your moonbeams dance
Down on my skin and take me
To the center of your world
So many miles between us dear
I just can't seem to touch you
Or make you see what you are to me
Searchin' for an answer
I'm just searchin' for your light
It helps to guide me through the caverns
Of confusion
Through all the hell, my Katie Moon
We've been together loving all the way
Katie Moon, Katie Moon
Katie Moon, Katie Moon
With your voice so soft and kiss so sweet
You share with me the secrets
Of my soul
Our love seems to get stronger, dear
I still can't seem to touch you
Or make you see what you are to me
Katie Moon, shining down on me
When will you realize
You just don't see I love you
You've got a spell on me
Come shine your light on me, Katie Moon
You breathe and you whisper
You make me want you, Katie Moon
You tell me that you love me
To make me want you like I do
But how can I go, when you're holding me down
It's much harder to love you
While I'm crawling around
I'm tired, you see - I'm down on my knees
Baby, won't you help me please

SOPHIA
Music & Lyrics by Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
Sophia, just listen to me
This is what I'm here for
Sophia, to tell you the truth
I'll give you everything that I can
So please understand, Sophia
Sophia, you're driving me mad
Please don't tell me you don't care
I just can't react
You always know just what to do
You know that it's true, my Sophia
Chorus:
I just want to hold you for a long time
I'm thinking about you every single day
You are the star that keeps on shining
When this ol' world starts getting me down
You tell me it's okay...
Sophia, you're killing my blues
Come on and give me just one smile
It's all that I need
You make me feel so warm and bright
You're such a delight
Well, you make me feel so warm and so very bright
You know that I'm right, Sophia

RUNAWAY BLUES
Music & Lyrics by Eric "Pappy" Weingrad
Runaway blues are calling
It started a long time ago
When ol' Charley Delaney stood 3 feet high
Staring out of his back door, he said
"I do believe this same old day-to-day
Has got me so worked up inside myself
I feel my body pulse, you know I've got to run away
Chorus:
Take me - leave all my troubles behind me
Take me - where no one who loves me can find me
Run - run away, run away, run away..."
Little Charley got on his bicycle
He went riding down by the railroad tracks
When he heard the sound of a man beaten down
It sent the chill straight up his back
He stopped and said, "Who's there?"
He felt so petrified
His heartbeat racing through his arms and legs
He picked up his bike and he started to ride...
Charley Delaney's been riding
Nearin' on twenty-two years
Wishing away those runaway blues
Could have saved him many a tear
He said, "I do believe I feel so all alone
Yes, I'm still so worked up inside myself
I feel my body pulse, you know I've got to get home...
Chorus:
Take me - leave all my troubles behind me
Take me - where people who love me can find me
Run - run away, run away, run away..."
