What's the difference
Between me and Odysseus?
Well for one thing - he never worked from home
And another thing - I never blinded a Cyclops
But the same waves
And the same cliffs
Welcomed him home
And the same stones on the shore
Welcomed him home
And never asked any questions of him
But that love
Oh, that love!
God I wish it was the same love welcomed me home
When I wash up in the middle of the night.
Then I remember, first he had to prove who he was
That he was the best of the men
And I can see the suitors queueing up
And I've never strung a bow in my life.

There is a thing I know...
Wendy follows me home!
She follows me home
I can't make love cause Wendy sees
I close my eyes she's there with me
Try to hurt myself
Wendy won't let me bleed
I got a woman, she is good to me
But I can't look at her
Wendy won't let me see
Try to eat something
Wendy won't let me feed...
I am the one, I am the one, I am the one
I AM THE SUN!
Hanging onto the sky
Like a blood clot in the whites of her eyes
Fish in my pockets, find change and chewing gum
Nothing in my pockets can make what I have done undone
No TV in the corner, I killed that thing too
An empty bottle and the bottom of my shoe
I am the one, I am the one, I am the one
I AM THE SUN!
Hanging onto the sky
Like a blood clot in the whites of her eyes

Catch the Stars
Fill your bag with dreams and hit the road
Haters gotta hate
Livers gotta live
Lovers gotta love
Givers gotta give
So go on.
I'm tryin to open my heart again
Open my lungs and breathe it in
I wanna catch the stars
And catch the sun
Whatever's inside, just let it out
There's not much time
So scream it out, scream it out
Come on!

Down by the River

Over the hills and far away
I met my lover today
Down by the River, in the dirt
My blue jeans, her short skirt
The water was dirty
The water was high
The water was dirty as the water flowed by and she said:
"Did the bad man hurt you?" she said
"Did the bad man hurt you?" she said
"Did the bad man hurt you?"
I said "Yes, Yes, YES!"
She looked at me, pity in her eyes
Clouds they rumbled, in the sky
Raindrops falling, couldn't feel my hands
The water was dirty as the sky opened, and she said:
"Did the bad man hurt you?" she said
"Did the bad man hurt you?" she said
"Did the bad man hurt you?"
I said "Yes, Yes, YES!"
I looked to the east, to the west
I heard my babies crying, from their nest
I felt a sudden urge to fly
I saw my lover's body, floating by and it said:
"Did the bad man hurt you?" it said
"Did the bad man hurt you?" it said
"Did the bad man hurt you?"
I said "Yes, Yes, YES!"
