BURGERS 03:11
Everybody knows our burgers crushed Shoeless Joe's Everybody knows there's a pasture in the courtyard where the money flows Everybody knows that Michael Moore tried to pass this off as a Canadian ghetto

Yeah, You You're my teenage dream This is a song I heard in a dream This is a song I wrote in my sleep Went to a party late last night Met a man named Stever Under the streetlight He was strong and bald and tall He was the king of them all He was my teenage dream Yeah, You You're my teenage dream This is a song I heard in a dream This is a song I wrote in my sleep You set the motor right And ride it every night You push and pull and you scream and yell You're my teenage dream Yeah, You You're my teenage dream This is a song I heard in a dream This is a song I wrote in my sleep This is a song I don't know what it means...

ALLEY BAR 04:28
We make too much noise in the backyard We can't afford to drink in the bars So we open the doors and we spill on the streets With our drinks and look up at the stars In the night Where we belong The smell of the sawdust and dirt floors Masks all the drinks that I've spilled The bartender's friendly and the patrons are saints And everyone's glass is half filled In the night Where we belong I wanna go Where everybody knows my name There's Woody and Norm And Sam loves Diane Roseanne and Dan Barney and Lenny and Karl There's no Ponda Baba's Or Doctor Evazan's The hits are all played by the Cantina Band And Solo shoots first While Worf drinks alone Data learns human from Geordie LaForge Belloc is there He gives me a nod: "The Ark is a radio for speaking to God" All of my friends Kisses and hugs We drink all the beers And we smoke all the drugs In the night Where everybody knows my name...

WANNA BE 03:57
I'm not a butcher Or a baker But I could be if I wanted to be I'm not a Clipper Or a Laker But I could be if I wanted to be I could be what I wanna be when I wanna be it I could be what I wanna be yeah yeah yeah I'm not an officer Or a janitor But I could be if I wanted to be I'm not a millionaire Or cisgender queer But I could be if I wanted to be I could be what I wanna be when I wanna be it I could be what I wanna be yeah yeah yeah You gotta push through the fakers You gotta block out the haters now Put your pen to the paper And then you say: "See you later, now" All the things that they're saying All the games that their playing All the time that they're wasting's a pain pain pain Just do it your own way I could be what I wanna be when I wanna be it I could be what I wanna be yeah yeah yeah

SHINE SHINE 03:09
Shine Shine In the night like a diamond All right All night And when you think to yourself in the darkness what does it feel like? Clomp Clomp On the wiggly stairway All right All night And when you look at yourself in the mirror what does it sound like? Drink Drink From your seat at the table All right All night And when you gather yourself in the cold night what does it look like? And when you look at yourself in the mirror what does it sound like? And when you think to yourself in the darkness what does it feel like? Oh no no no no...

about

Some of these songs were improvised as part of "Toronto I Love You" at the Bad Dog Comedy Theatre in January 2015 and some of these songs were written in hotel rooms while I was touring a puppet show across North America.
