Phish - Alumni Blues - lyrics

Woke up this morning and I had those walking blues (x2)
I wasnt walkin nowhere cause I didnt have no floor!
Staring over the edge of the bed
My old lady lying next to me, I started to cry (x2)
She said Im gonna take this diploma,
Im gonna slice you in the eye!
Well Im alright (hes alright) (x9)
cause I got a degree!
Escaping through my window
Theres a policeman on the lawn outside my home (x2)
I opened my mouth to scream but my throat was full of foam
So Im sittin in this cell
My fortune dwindled to a thimble full of filth (x2)
I may spend the rest of my life in jail but at least its got a floor!
Chorus

Phish - Axilla - lyrics

I dropped the buzzard in the sand and trudged off slowly toward the town,
I needed dinner and a place where I could throw my weight around,
I detected faint axilla scent that put me off my appetite,
But mouflon warring where I went renewed in me a need to fight,
Then reveling in mirror mask I soon was lost in foggy ditch,
Without a feather gray or white to tickle that piano witch,
Fearing that I must expose my worm to holographic haze,
My clinometer error rose and spawned in her new mawkish ways,
I woke the witch with reverence reserved for serpents, snails, and slugs,
I pulled the witch from out the ditch and turned to face the furry thugs,
The sheep they smiled with teeth agleam,
The weapons in their hooves revolved I detected a prostatic ream,
I gulped and felt my loins dissolve!!!!!!!!!

Phish - Access Me - lyrics

The first time I came over I was bitten by your dog
You weren't even there 'cause you were walking in the fog
I call you up and plead and beg and talk to your machine
My friends say not to bother when you're acting pretty mean
But I don't need to botehr you, no I won't play that part
I just want access to the inside of your heart
Access to your thoughts on the way that I should be
So I could start to cvhange and maybe you could access me
Access me
You could tell me all about all the things you did at work
The guy who sits beside you and how he's acting like a jerk
And if you don't have to open up the secrets of your soul
But if that's the place you want me I'd be glad to pay the toll

Phish - Army Of One - lyrics

Northern dilemma
Call of the cold
The arms of the arctic begin to unfold
Sit in a circle facing the sun
Get what you can now
Winter is on
Truth on condition
Never dig deep
Solemn reminders as groundwaters seep
Into foundations, centers of joy
To weaken and crumble
Search and destroy
Light up the city
Hiding so strange
You'd better take cover
It's love at close range
Oh solo mission
Cover of dark
Army of one now, don't let down your guard
Sit in a circle facing the sun
Soak it in while you can
Winter is on
I got no answer but you've got no call
Just can't compete with the weight of it all
Silent treatment
Stone in the rain
Bright, shining doorway
Try to remain
Northern dilemma
Call of the cold
The arms of the arctic begin to unfold

Phish - Ac/dc Bag - lyrics

Mr. palmer is concerned with the thousand dollar question
Just like roger hes a crazy little kid
Ive got the time if youve got the inclination
So cheer up palmer, youll soon be dead
The noose is hanging, at least you wont die wondering
Sit up and take notice tell it like it is
If I were near you I wouldnt be far from you
Ive got a feeling you know what you did
Chorus:
Ac/dc bag
Ac/dc bag
Ac/dc bag
Dc bag
(2x)
Time to put your money where your mouth is
Put em in a field and let em fight it out
Im running so fast my feet dont touch the ground
Im a stranger here Im going down
Lets get down to the nitty gritty
Lets get this show on the road
Ill show you mine if you show me yours
Im breathing hard - open the door
[chorus]
Brain dead, and made of money
No future at all
Pull down the blinds and run for cover
No future at all
Who wouldve thought it, thats where I am
No future at all
Dont sweat it, thats where I am
Whoa, carry me down, down, down, down
By that night, news of palmers death had traveled back to the camp. spirits were low and colonel forbin felt devastated. even though he had only been in gamehendge for one day, he had already developed a deep hatred for wilson. he wanted desperately to help the revolutionaries, but without palmer, it seemed hopeless. he wandered slowly through the camp and passed errand wolfe, sitting by the fire with rutherford, who had returned that afternoon. he walked on and soon found himself outside of telas hut. forbin knocked and walked in. tela sat behind a makeshift desk in the center of a room that was littered with small cages containing spotted stripers, a tiny three-legged breed of animal. the unit monster sat in the corner. the colonel took a step toward tela and spoke. I needed to come here tonight he said, to tell you that Ive fallen in love with you. he looked to her eyes for approval but her face remained frozen in an expressionless stare. an awkward blank

A long moment before being shattered by the sound of the door swinging violently open. it was rutherford the brave. the ironclad knight rushed across the room and gripped the throats of tela and the unit monster in each of his mighty hands. they struggled to break free but even the unit monster was no match for rutherfords power and soon it was over. the bodies fell to the floor in a lifeless heap. colonel forbin stepped forward from where he stood in the corner unable to contain his confusion and rage and screamed why? his question was answered by errand wolfe who had quietly slipped through the doorway during the confusion. she was a spy, he said, and explained to forbin that she had been sending information to wilson using the spotted stripers as carriers. rogers death had aroused his suspicion, and palmers had confirmed it. the colonel stood in silence in a world that had turned up-side-down so many times that he no longer knew which way was up. it had a

Ood versus evil, and of course he had sided with good as he had done all his life. and now, he stood and stared into the eyes of errand wolfe and he saw evil. the entire picture began to seem like an enormous puzzle with one piece missing, and the colonel knew what that piece was. within twenty-four hours, he said to errand wolfe, you will have the helping friendly book. and even as the words were leaving his lips, he found himself running out the door and into the forest, not towards prussia, but toward the great mountain looming in the distance.

Phish - Axilla Ii - lyrics

Summer sitting out by the pool
A ray of sunshine getting in my way
Close your eyes and wish that it were cool
Everyday
And I wish it could be back the other way
But whats dissolved aint coming back today
Close your eyes and wish that it were
Close your eyes and wish that it were
Axilla axilla axilla axilla
Never understood what my body was for
Thats why I always leave it layin out on the floor
The shape a curiosity
Where different faces fit before
And tracing my image in the sand
To pass the time from slip to fall
The line I trace begins to weave
A tangled web from wall to wall

Asseh imanu tsadaka vichesed vhoshiainu
Our father our king
Be gracious unto us
And answer us
For we are wanting
In good deeds
Deal with us in charity
And save us

Phish - A Song I Heard The Ocean Sing - lyrics

A song I heard the ocean sing
A shining light in darkness deep
I prayed a prayer into the tide
And both they soothed me in my sleep
For every season that has passed I prayed a prayer into the tide
A shining light in darkness deep
In me ten years before the mast
For every season that has passed I laid my body o'er the side
A shining light in darkness deep
I prayed a prayer into the tide
How can I answer questions I've known?
A song I heard the ocean sing
A shining light in darkness deep
Ten years before the mast
I heard the ocean sing
