The Guy in the Glass
by Dale Wimbrow, (c) 1934


When you get what you want in your struggle for pelf,
And the world makes you King for a day,
Then go to the mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that guy has to say.

For it isn't your Father, or Mother, or Wife,
Who judgement upon you must pass.
The feller whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the guy staring back from the glass.

He's the feller to please, never mind all the rest,
For he's with you clear up to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the guy in the glass is your friend.

You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum,
And think you're a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.

You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years,
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you've cheated the guy in the glass.

Hummin Da Funk.

Hmmmmm..
Rollin' down the road Goin' nowhere
Guitar packed in the trunk
Somewhere 'round mile marker 112
Papa started hummin' da funk
I got a jones in my bones
Before we know, we be singing this melody
Stopped the car, pulled out the guitar
Halfway to New Orleans
Said take me ho-whoa-oh-ome
Take me ho-whoa-oh-ome
Could feel the sun about to rise
When I realized we had nothing to fear
It's just me and my daddy and a kid named Cope
makin music that nobody would hear
And then the sun let up and it spent the night
Spillin' over our jubilee
10,000 cars by the side of the road Groovin' far as the eye can see
Said take me ho-whoa-oh-ome
Take me ho-whoa-oh-ome
Said take me ho-whoa-oh-ome

Said this greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found
Said this greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found his way ho-whoa-oh-ome
Said take me ho-whoa-oh-ome
Here we go.....

Hot damn you should've felt the groove
Like I was swimmin' in a sea o' soul
The sun was risin' and the day was hot
And we all about to lose contro
lMy daddy turned his face up towards the sky
And I knew that there was nothin' to lose
I felt the crowd breathe in and I closed my eyes
And we disappeared into the groove
Said take me ho-whoa-oh-ome
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water

You don't know nothin' about this!
Take me home, home, home, home

IF Tomorrow Never Comes

if tomorrow never comes
i wont give a damn
if tomorrow never comes
i will not be afraid to meet my maker
just the way that i am
you cant prove anything
but one thing is true
if you can steal from me
i can steal from you

any kind of heaven every body doesnt get in
wont seem like a heaven to me
they tell you that the garden of eden was perfect
but you couldnt even eat off the apple tree
and for heavens sakes look out for that snake
lying to your woman constantly
adam must have scratched his head
looked up and said
lord this just isnt doing it for me


if tomorrow never comes
i wont give a damn
if tomorrow never comes
i dont want to be afraid
to come and meet you just the way that i am
i cant do anything im dying too
if tomorrow never comes
tonight will have to do


i say i dont ever claim to know whats going on around here
i dont even know where im from
i know where im going when i get to where im going
what im doing when i get done
you tell me im forgiven if i need to be
i say permission ought to come that easily
im piling cores up underneath this apple tree
singing oh lord have mercy on me

if tomorrow never comes
and tonight is all i got
if tomorrow never comes
i dont want to be afraid
to come and meet you just the way that im not
cant do anything
and then you die
judge the judgemental and what am i?

either way im every guy i ever tried not to be
i want everything as good as it gets
ive learned nothing but that there is another sun rise coming
all but one of the times it sets

and if tomorrow never comes
tomorrow never comes
if tomorrow never comes
tomorrow never comes
if we were all good people
we could work in perfect rythmn
if worms had daggers
birds wouldnt fuck with them

THE USED

He wears his heartsafety pinned to his backpack
His backpack is all that he knows
Shot down by strangers
whose glances can cripple
the heart and devour the soul

All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he crawls
like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird

Out of his mind away
pushes him whispering
must have been out of his mind
mid-day delusions of pushing this out of his head
maybe out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death
Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he
crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird

All he knows
If he can't relieve it it grows
and so it goes
he crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm from the bird

Out of his mind awaypushes him whispering
must have been out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone
while holding his breath half to death

Terrified of whats inside
to save his life he crawls
like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird

All alone
he's holding his breath half to death
Terrified to save his life
he crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm from a bird
crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm
crawls like a worm from a bird


sweet song..check it out on you tube
