1 Ants Marching He wakes up in the morning Does his teeth, bite to eat, and he's rolling Never changes a thing The week ends, the week begins She thinks, we look at each other Wondering what the other is thinking But we never say a thing And these crimes between us grow deeper Goes to visit his mommy She feeds him well his concerns He forgets them And remembers being small Playing under the table and dreaming Take these chances Place them in a box until a quieter time Lights down, you up and die Driving in on this highway All these cars and upon the sidewalk People in every direction No words exchanged No time to exchange And all the little ants are marching Red and black antennas waving They all do it the same They all do it the same way Candyman teasing the thoughts of a Sweet tooth tortured by the weight loss Programs cutting the corners Loose end, loose end, cut, cut On the fence, could not to offend Cut, cut, cut, cut Take these chances Place them in a box until a quieter time Lights down, you up and die

2 WHERE THE GREEN GRASS GROWS Six lanes, tail lights Red ants marchin' into the night They disappear to the left and right again Another supper from a sack A 99 cent heart attack I got a poundin' head and an achin' back And the camels standin' in a big straw stack I'm gonna live where the green grass grows Watch my corn pop up in rows Every night be tucked in close to you Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed Point our rockin' chairs towards the west And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows Where the green grass grows Well I'm from a map dot A stop sign on a blacktop I caught the first bus that I could hop from there But all o' this glitter is gettin' dark There's concrete growin' in the city park I don't know who my neighbors are And there's bars on the corner and bars on my heart

4 Can't help falling in love by Elvis Presley Wise men say only fools rush in but I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay, would it be a sin if I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darlin' so it goes some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too for I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darlin' so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too for I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darlin' so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you I can't help falling in love with you...
