Falling Thru the Cracks music and lyrics by Sean Sandefur

You say you think I’m crazy, what do you know
You got your little life to live, why don’t you just leave me alone.
You say you have the answer to life’s little mystery
With your suped up cars and your fancy bars they just don’t mean a thing to me
I’m gonna take my time learning how I’m gonna find my way
I don’t need you to tell me what to do or what to say
So please don’t cry for me I’m not falling thru the cracks
No no don’t cry for me I’m not falling thru the cracks

You say you think I’m lazy, a fool and a freak,
I’m living life my own way, can’t you see that I’m living free?
You say reality has got the best of me,
But I’m just trying to keep it together; I’m just trying to get some relief.
I’m gonna take my time learning how I’m gonna find my way
I don’t need you to tell me what to do or what to say
So please don’t cry for me I’m not falling thru the cracks
No no don’t cry for me I’m not falling thru the cracks


Said It All
music and lyrics by Margo Simpson

I said it all once before, won't say it now, that'd be a bore.
Same old story, same old line, but I ain't going down this time.

Like I said, I said it all. I ain't gonna take that fall.
I might bend but I won't break. I won't make that mistake.


Time to Make a Change
music by Joel Simpson, lyrics by Margo Simpson

I worked hard all my life to find security
I bust my back each day and tell myself it’s good for me

But it’s time to make a change take my life and rearrange
Because I broke and I’m broken, I’m gagged and I’m choking
It’s time to make a chain, chain, change. It’s time to make a change.

I try my best to do, everything for you, but it’s never enough and now I’m tired and tough
I’ve got to break these chains before they break me

I was running down the stream lost the dogs in this dream
I couldn’t even scream but only run
Then I heard the sirens wail can’t stop now they’re on my tail
My escape cannot fail just this once
Because I’m running away, I’m running away,
I’m running away from these chains
I’m running, I’m running away from these chains, away from these chains
away, from these chains, I got to run, got to run, got to run so far away
got to run so far away from these chains


Your Fool
music and lyrics by Margo Simpson

You can’t go around breakin hearts, and I can’t pretend there’s nothing wrong
You say one thing then you do another. You’re going to find out before too long,
That the world doesn’t love a cheater, and nobody wants to be a fool
So you keep trying those tired old lines. Somebody else might think you’re cool.

You make promises you just don’t keep, but I won’t be asking anymore.
You think you got what I need, but everything I need is outside that door
Cause I just can’t love a cheater, and I just don’t want to be your fool
So you keep trying those tired old lines. Somebody else might think you’re cool.


Right on the Edge
music and lyrics by Margo Simpson

Why does life always seem to be one step forward and two steps back?
Like the waves in the ocean, flowing so slack.
I’m an honest girl from the working class, not a lot of friends in the upper brass
But, not white trash, where does that leave me? Right on the edge with no relief

Struggle, I struggle so hard, so hard as I try to get ahead
Thinking Maybe I’d just better catch up instead
What happened to the girl who dreams? Been waking up to nightmares, or so it seems.
Try to distinguish reality, where does that leave me? Right on the edge with no relief


The Slide
music and lyrics by Sean Sandefur

I’m on a ride on a slide, I cannot run I cannot hide, I feel the ground pulling me.
I’m always wasted always sad, I think I’m going freaking mad, this emptiness is killing me.
That ain’t the way I want to go

I’m on a ride on a slide, I keep it bottled up inside, the ground is rushing up at me.
I want the wind in my sails, instead of lying on the rail, I don’t want a gun to set me free.
That ain’t the way I want to go. No that ain’t the way I want to go


Babe oh Babe
music and lyrics by Margo Simpson

Babe oh babe why must you make me your slave?
Running from the back door asking if I want more
baby you are so depraved

Babe oh babe why must you make me your slave?
Askin for a water glass, shake your hips and move your ass
baby you are so depraved

Babe oh babe why must you make me your slave?
Save a night for just us two, we can play something new
baby you are so depraved, baby you are so depraved, baby we are so depraved


The Tide
music and lyrics by Margo Simpson

It's as inevitable as the tide that you will someday be mine
Couldn't fight it if we tried. Should we try anyway?
I'm a sucker for a lost cause sometimes the way to win is through loss
Who can say that it's true every word that I'm saying to you
Here comes the tide. Here comes the tide of my love.
Tide of my love for you. Don't try to hide, let it crash over you

Ride the roar, then ask for more, I'll give to you. Don't hold back your attack.
Here comes the tide. Here comes the tide of my love.
Tide of my love for you. Don't try to hide, let it crash over you

Slave to the wave. Like the souls of the brave, facing their fear, with what they hold dear.
Here comes the tide. Here comes the tide of my love.
Tide of my love for you. Don't try to hide, let it crash over you

Go with the flow, cause only you know just what you need to feel complete
Here comes the tide. Here comes the tide of my love.
Tide of my love for you. Don't try to hide, let it crash over you


Cool Breeze
music and lyrics by Margo Simpson

If only a Cool Breeze could touch me now, b ut there’s really no consolation anyhow
I don’t need anything but space and time to clear my mind, cause if I don’t now, I’m never gonna find
a way that I can carry on again. If only the Cool Breeze would blow in.

I thought I had a plan to make it all right, what I needed was a plan to make it through the night,
and through another day – this way, when I realize that nothing is ever here to stay.
Like the day when everything changed at one time, we were lost on the road, but wouldn’t read the signs

Why didn’t you listen to the warning call? You were digging the hole into which you fall
I was telling you in a thousand ways, and a picture is worth a thousand words they say
But it just doesn’t mean much to a selfish heart, so here I am back at the start

If only a Cool Breeze could touch me now, b ut there’s really no consolation anyhow
I don’t need anything but space and time to clear my mind, cause if I don’t now, I’m never gonna find
a way that I can carry on again. If only the Cool Breeze would blow in.


Spider & The Fly
music and lyrics by Margo Simpson

CH:
It's ain't worth it I tell you said the spider to the fly It's ain't worth it I tell you my oh my
It's ain't worth it I tell you surrender while you can It's ain't worth it I tell you you're my man

Give me everything you got and I'll ask for more I may be demanding but I tell you what for
I don't ask more than once so listen up my friend Why resist now you now you're going to bend
CH

She had him in her web wrapped as tight as could be She smiled in triumph as he tried to fly free
And he wondered to himself what could she want in me She told him aloud, wait and see
CH

She stretched her long legs and asked "be my meal tonight?" He was kind of intrigued but nearly dead of fright. As she crawled across the bed of web she made for the day He said, "Madam Spider I'm flattered but I've got to say..."

Then he told her, " First of all you're not my type. And second look, I'm hardly ripe. I'd like to stay at your invitation But you're freakin me out and I've got to run."

It's ain't worth it I tell you said the spider to the fly It's ain't worth it I tell you you're mine all mine
It's ain't worth it I tell you surrender while you can It's ain't worth it I tell you you're my man
It's ain't worth it I tell you give up the fight You're meant to be mine and I mean tonight.
