Dan & Joe (And Sometimes Mo’)
 
Hey kids, have you heard the news
Sweeping across the nation?
You've got to see these two or three
Singing, songwriting sensations!
From Basking Ridge to Bear Mountain bridge
Everybody's talking about 'em
From the interstate to the internet
The fans are wild, the word is out, and
 
I can't wait to see the show
Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)
Everyone I know's just dying to go
To see Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)
Playing the Taylor guitar, that's Joe
In his brand-new jeans and sneakers
Dan's over there on the Casio
With its tiny keys and built-in speakers
 
I'm gonna sit in the very first row
To see Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)
I'd drive a hundred miles in the snow
To see Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)
 
Like Superman and Lois and Krypto
Like Groucho, Harpo, Chico and Zeppo
They were born to perform together, you know
Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)
 
They can make you cry
They can make you laugh
They can touch your heart with their magic
You can ask them for an autograph
But you might not get your pen back
 
It doesn't cost a lot of dough
To see Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)
You won't hear 'em on the radio
So come to the show and see Dan, Joe and Mo’
 
But what I really want to know is
Who the heck is this kid named Mo?
Who's the third voice in the trio
With Pelletier and Giacoio?
With a name like Mo it's hard to know
If he plays bass or she sings soprano
Maybe Mo will steal the show
Would Dan get mad? Would Joe feel low?
It's almost time--come on, let's go
To see Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)
I can't wait to see the show...
I'm gonna sit in the very first row, to see...
It doesn't cost a lot of dough, to see...
And maybe Mo will steal the show
From Dan and Joe (and sometimes Mo’)...

Red River Flood
(Mike Borok, Paul Shaheen)
 
Red River, God knows we were not prepared
Even though we know the wind and snow
The small town where I was born has disappeared
And I've got nowhere to go
 
Someday we will once again be dry
The water will return to the sky
 
There's a Red Cross tent with canned food and blankets
There's a river where a playground used to be
On a rooftop someone has painted
"Mom I'm OK," hoping she'll see
 
Someday we will once again be dry
The water will return to the sky
 
When the President flies home,
the cameras go with him
And we're still standing in the rain
First we shake our fists and curse at Heaven
Then we bow our heads and pray
 
Someday we will once again be dry
The water will return to the sky
Someday we will once again be dry
The water will return to the sky

I'm Talking to You
 
There's a look that you get when you're looking at me
And I try to deny that it's serious
There's a thing in your eyes that you think I don't see
And it's starting to come between us
And I'm mostly afraid of the things you don't say
And I hate to complain, but I do it anyway
 
chorus:
I'm talking to you
I said I'm talking to you
I can't stand not knowing where I stand
And I can't stand thinking what you might be thinking
Lips and hearts should go hand in hand
I'm trying to get through
I'm talking to you
 
There's a chill in the air as you sit in your chair
And carefully chew your vegetables
There's a sound that I hate when you're scraping your plate
And I'm thinking it might be intentional
We've had these frozen dinners for far too long
Why don't you spit it out?
Tell me what's going on
 
(repeat chorus)
 
Why do you talk to the TV more than to me?
Don't be so remote; devote some time to me
 
I'm talking to you
I said I'm talking to you
I can't stand not knowing where I stand
And I can't stand thinking what you might be thinking
Lips and hearts should go hand in hand
I'm trying to get through
I'm trying to get through...
 
I'm talking to you
I said I'm talking to you
I can't stand not knowing where I stand
And I can't stand thinking what you might be thinking
Lips and hearts should go hand in hand
I'm trying to get through
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you

Misery Loves Company
  
It's another lonely Saturday night
In the tiny studio apartment where I live
All by myself
 
Now, I can't sleep so I go downstairs
And the night is warm, and everywhere
I see hearts spray-painted on walls and fences
And lovers have taken all the park benches
And I feel so sad - too sad for words
If I had some bread I'd feed these birds
If I had some sense I'd go back to bed
But I end up going downtown instead
And the people look sharp; they're nicely dressed
But that just makes me more depressed
I want the whole world to feel as bad as me
Because misery loves company
 
Misery
Everybody talks about misery
No, it isn't just me
Nine out of ten of my friends agree
That misery loves company
Misery loves company
 
So I order a double at a singles bar
And I watch TV while some creeps watch me
The sports guy runs down the losing scores
And they show some athletic injury
And I think of all the times that I got hurt
In exploratory sexual surgery
And this barroom gloom is an operating room
For ghouls who feed on misery
 
Misery
Everybody suffers some misery
You can take it from me
Everybody wants a little sympathy
And misery loves company
Misery loves company
 
It's not the alcohol that calls us all
It just lubricates our emptiness
It's not the cheap draft beer that brings us here
We've got misery to thank for our togetherness
 
It starts to get late and I think how I hate
This crazy dating industry
Everyone laughs at some infantile joke
And the smell of smoke starts to get to me
And the floor is littered with cigarette butts
And I'm eating complementary nuts
Ignoring guys with big beer guts
Who won't stop coming on to me
 
Then I notice this guy from the corner of my eye
He almost blends in with the scenery
As he sits and thinks and nurses his drink
But there's something about him that appeals to me
And he runs his hand through his uncombed hair
As he stares at the upholstery
But he'll notice me eventually
Because misery loves company
 
Misery
Everybody knows about misery
And it seems to me
We're in the same pain emotionally
And it's misery
I don't want to hear about misery
But inevitably
I complain to you and you complain to me
Because misery loves company
Misery loves company
Misery loves company

Into My Life
 
Oh babe, you've gone too far now
Who do you think you are?
You've taken your knife
And cut your way into my life
 
Oh babe, you've gone too far now
Thought that you knew the score
You've taken your knife
And cut your way into my life
 
Okay, you say you think you know me
But some other one is in your head
No way, you're never gonna show me
'Cause the neighborhood is overfed
And I'm not sorry
 
(Repeat first verse)
 
Oh, no, there's angels undercover
And your other lover's in the way
And maybe you'll go the day that you discover
That the neighborhood has understood
That I'm not sorry
You've taken your knife
And cut your way into my life
Into my life
Into my life

Give It Back
  
Since I was small
My head's been filled with plans
But there's no holding on to dreams
They slip right through your hands
They slip away so easily
You might not even know
Until the ones who love you
Sadly say, "I told you so"
 
Give it back, give it all back
Nobody knows where our dreams go
Give it back, give it all back
You won't feel a thing ‘til tomorrow
 
I'd sing my songs
And dream of rave reviews
How friends would phone to say they'd seen me
On the evening news
But time goes by, now I believe
These dreams might not come true
But, darling, you still believe in me
And I believe in you
 
Give it back…
You won't feel a thing - no, no
Give it back, give it all back
Nobody knows where our dreams go
Give it back, give it all back
We may dream again tomorrow
