1.	Slings and Arrows 04:02	lyrics	buy track
Climb the gate and grab a plate take first in line and kill it ‘till it fills you based on time and circumstance the quickest route forgoing chance will win Now’s your shot to take the spot the bull is bleeding Start the feeding frenzy Slings and arrows wounding sparrows no one counts the feathers falling down When the sun sets and gets in your sight look away give the day over to play in the night Everybody hates it can’t wait to state it nobody wants to hug the ugly baby tell me where to find a meal I’ll show you what it takes to steal the crown When the sun sets and gets in your sight look away give the day over to play in the night
2.	My Neighbor, My Child 03:49	lyrics	buy track
Spare me your problems and I’ll solve them tonight from the people on the left, to the people on the right please step aside while I make my way through its no longer a question, its not up to you Two hundred years and its going down the drain we’re still pointing fingers shifting the blame I’d say its time to get up from your chair get a real job, and cut your hair And you yell and you scream Shout out the answers and I’ll tell you your right there’s no point in talking, to fuel up this fight our side or their side, the two seldom meet its the faithful reminder we’re all incomplete Four billion years now spinning around a fraction of which, we’ve been walking on the ground I’d say its something you could not forget trust in the choices you haven’t made yet And you yell and you scream No I won't get out of my chair I won't go over there I’m not the neighborly type so get out of my yard
3.	Lament 04:05	lyrics	buy track
Get out of my head, get out of my heart You never loved me from the start Now we're apart, because of your lies Don't say I didn't try Grim and dreary, blank and black Jagged, jutted, cutting path And the overwhelming, harrowing descent Plunging, tumbling cliffs on either side Where is the way out? Nothing's not as empty as it sounds Into your mind you finally climb Into the dark and deep beyond where you will find This fever, I can't shake it, no Something's coming and it's gaining ground, whoah! Spinning circles, baring down Stinging, stabbing, grabbing, getting in Rushing, fleeting falls of nature's fury Hurricane at my back What's that noise beyond the next horizon?
4.	Here Come the Cylons 02:11	lyrics	buy track
Here Come the Cylons Here Come the Cylons Here Come the Cylons Save us Adama From Raiders and Skinjobs and also Centurions Baltar and Caprica Only know what it feels like when you are inside my head Sharon Agathon's got it going on with Helo And then there's Starbuck, who's all frakked up on Apollo Why's it so hard to say I love you Yeah, I love you Yeah, I love you Yeah I love you Here Come the Cylons Here Come the Cylons Here Come the Cylons Earth is so far away It's a race against robots across the expanse of space Come on, Roslin Don't make any pit stops at any other planet Earth can't be replaced or the human race gets shafted It can be very tempting to retire and build a cabin Why's it so hard to say, I love you Yeah, I love you Yeah, I love you Yeah, I love you Yeah, I love you, I love you
5.	San Diego 03:22	lyrics	buy track
Jammin’ here in San Diego eating my huevos ranchero this Spanish girl seems to know my name and the bartender doesn't seem to care Add a little salt and pepper bloody mary helps me forget her shaking out the sand from Saturday night its a warm San Diego day after a cold San Diego night So raise a glass for San Diego a round of shots for San Diego a paradise in the Southern CA I love you San Diego Chilling out with my amigos but everywhere I look I see only gringos puedo ver la luna en el mar oh lord I got way to drunk last night and I woke up in the neighbor’s yard So raise a glass for San Diego a round of shots for San Diego a paradise in the Southern CA I love you San Diego I’m getting lit up because she let me down So raise a glass for San Diego a round of shots for San Diego a paradise in the Southern CA I love you San Diego
