None the Wiser


Jesus Freak

There used to be an old me
Once upon a time
Nothing ever moved me
Couldn’t turn on a dime
My soul was in the shadows
Needing to be found
In the end I’m none the wiser
My ship has run aground

You know my name
In the stillness of the night
You called me

Hey I’m the broken jars of clay
Without you I’m so weak
That’s why I call me a Jesus Freak, yeah
And some they just don’t understand
It ain’t no wonderland
Still I call me a Jesus Freak, yeah

There was a friend who told me
I was the one who sold me
Up the creek I swam for life
Only to get drowned
One day I found this place
A new city in a state of grace
I see the beauty beneath the skies
Time to wake up, time to rise

You made me whole
In the darkness of my days
You saved me

Hey I’m the broken jars of clay
Without you I’m so weak
That’s why I call me a Jesus Freak, yeah
And some they just don’t understand
It ain’t no wonderland
Still I call me a Jesus Freak, yeah

Now everyday
I hear the sound of your salvation
Every night
I can see in the dark

Hey I’m the broken jars of clay
Without you I’m so weak
That’s why I call me a Jesus Freak, yeah
And some they just don’t understand
It ain’t no wonderland
Still I call me a Jesus Freak, yeah
You know I mean it

Hey, hey I’m the broken jars of clay
Without you I’m so weak
That’s why I call me a Jesus Freak
Jesus Freak, yeah
And some they just don’t understand
No, it ain’t no wonderland
Still I call me a Jesus Freak
Jesus Freak


Against the Grain

What do you do when people around you start to run
When things they don’t go as planned
Where do you go when the road is blocked and you’re stranded
How do you build tomorrowland

Do you say yes (when everyone tells you to)
Do you say no (when the going gets tough)

Against the grain you crawl on the ground
Another day on the battlefield
Against the grain you fight for the truth
As the sun beats down on you

How do you fix a broken heart with a broken mind
(Tell me if you know)
What do you do when all is said and done
(And all the doors are closed)
Think of what can appear on the other side of the mirror
(The other side of you)
Dream an impossible dream while you can

Do you agree (when everyone else does)
Do you not see (when it’s staring at you)

Against the grain you crawl on the ground
Another day on the battlefield (On the battlefield)
Against the grain you fight for the truth
As the sun beats down on you

Do you say yes (when everyone tells you to)
Do you say no (when the going gets tough)
When the going gets rough, yeah yeah

Against the grain you crawl on the ground
Another day on the battlefield (On the battlefield)
Against the grain you fight for the truth
As the sun beats down, yeah

And against the grain you fall on the ground
Another day on the battlefield (On the battlefield)
And against the grain you fight for the truth
As the sun beats down (sun beats down on you)
As your reach for the crown (reach for the crown)
As the sun beats down on you

As the sun beats down on you
Till the sun goes down


Me and My Samsonite

Don’t ever say goodbye
It’s easy if you try
You’re never far away from home
And it’s all you ever have

And when you walk out the door
You leave your mark on the floor
The family picture on the wall
Now seems a little crooked

All your dreams are packed in a suitcase

Me and my Samsonite
Are bidding you all a warm goodnight
We’re going somewhere far away
Me and my Samsonite
We’re about to catch a red eye flight
But we promise to come back here someday
Me and my Samsonite

Don’t watch the water dry
Don’t let your little flowers die
There’s always hope left in your soul
You have to believe me

And when you let it go away
It begs for you to let it stay
You’ll find a piece of me in you
Forever stuck inside

All your wishes they will come true

Me and my Samsonite
Are bidding you all a warm goodnight
We’re going somewhere far away
Me and my Samsonite
We’re about to catch a red eye flight
But we promise to come back here someday
Me and my Samsonite


Miko Loves Angus

Sky is clear
Rain has gone away
Leaves are falling
Critters gather ’round to play
Out through the backdoor
The boys they storm and bark out loud
One chases a bird
One holds a carrot in his mouth

Miko loves Angus, Angus loves Miko
This is the life we know
Kristi loves Angus
Angus is yearning for love
Miko loves Angus, Angus loves Miko
This is the life we live
Kristi loves Angus
Angus is learning he is loved

Early in the morning before sunrise
(Before the birds are awake)
There’s a faint whimper calling my name
Oh no no
A squirrel in the backyard they claim see
(And the clock says o dark thirty)
One of them wants his kibbles
And the other just wants to pee

Miko loves Angus, Angus loves Miko
This is the life we know
Kristi loves Angus
Angus is yearning for love
Miko loves Angus, Angus loves Miko
This is the life we live
Kristi loves Angus
Angus is learning he is loved

Let me tell you
All that mud from all that rain
Your heart and soul on a carpet stain
I don’t mind
I would not have it any other way, no

‘Cause Miko loves Angus, Angus loves Miko
This is the life we know
Kristi loves Angus
Angus is yearning for love
Miko loves Angus, Angus loves Miko
This is the life we live
Kristi loves Angus
Angus is learning he is loved

Oh, Miko loves Angus, Angus loves Miko
This is the life we know
Kristi loves Angus
Angus is yearning for our love, oh yeah
And Miko loves Angus and Angus loves Miko
And this is the life we choose to live
And Kristi loves Angus
While Angus is learning he is loved

Yes, Angus is learning
As we are learning that we are loved

And we are learning
Also learning to be loved

To be loved
We are loved
We are born to be loved


Spin Cycle

Gotta go to a show tonight
It’s gonna be a night to remember
Got no t-shirt, got no pants
Got my wardrobe all in the hamper

(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
Time is running out
What’s that all about
(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
I gotta wash some clothes
As the mind explodes

Do a load then hit the road tonight
I gotta be at the door by seven
Cuz show’s at eight, I can’t be late
I’ll turn a knob, push a button, close the lid
Wait a second, hey

(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
Time is running out
What’s that all about
(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
I gotta wash some clothes
As the mind explodes
(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
I just cannot wait till showtime

Don’t you leave me hangin’ out to dry
Spin cycle all the way
Turn that heat you can now if you try
I gotta go

Might as well get some practice in
Warm my fingers where the dryer’s heat lingers
I don’t wanna be late again
Load the gear, I’m outta here
Grab a couple cheeseburgers

(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
Time is running out
What’s that all about
(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
I gotta wash some clothes
As the mind explodes, yeah, huh
(Pup purup pup pup purup pup)
I just cannot wait till showtime, no

Don’t you leave me hangin’ out to dry
Spin cycle all the way
Turn that heat you can now if you try
I gotta go
So don’t you leave me hangin’ out to dry
Spin cycle all the way
And turn that heat you can now if you try
‘Cause I’ve gotta show
