Motorway food is the worst in the world,  
You’ve never eaten food like you’ve eaten on the motorway,  
Motorway food is the worst in the world.

The coffee tastes weak and the cakes taste stale,  
And gasoline fumes are the worst to inhale,  
Your stomach rolls over and your face turns pale.

Oh, that motorway livin’  
Ain’t it a thrill to be so free, yeah!

I’d like to build the world a home  
And furnish it with love  
Grow apple trees and honey bees  
And snow white turtle doves

One day while I was not at home  
While she was there and all alone  
The angels came  
Now all I have is memories of Honey  
And I wake up nights and call her name  
Now my life’s an empty stage  
Where Honey lived and Honey played  
And love grew up  
And a small cloud passes overhead  
And cries down on the flower bed  
That Honey loved

He keeps sending me angels  
Here they come a-flying  
He keeps sending me angels  
To keep me from crying  
He keeps sending me angels  
Sweet and true  
He keeps sending me angels  
Just like you

She never mentions the word addiction  
In certain company  
Yes, she’ll tell you she’s an orphan  
After you meet her family

She paints her eyes as black as night now  
Pulls those shades down tight  
Yeah, she gives a smile when the pain come  
The pain gonna make everything alright

Says she talks to angels  
They call her out by her name  
Oh yeah, she talks to angels  
Says they call her out by her name

I need a sign, to let me know you’re here  
All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere  
I need to know, that things are gonna look up  
'Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup

When there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head  
When you can feel the world shake from the words that are said

And I’m, calling all Angels  
And I’m, calling all you Angels

And I won’t give up, if you don’t give up  
I won’t give up, if you don’t give up

Don’t give up on us, baby  
Lord knows we’ve come this far  
Can’t we stay the way we are?  
The angel and the dreamer  
Who sometimes plays a fool  
Don’t give up on us, I know  
We can still come through

There’s a history between  
Girls like her and guys like me  
Cowboys and angels

Tall in the saddle we spend Christmas Day,  
driving the cattle over snow-covered plains.  
All of the good gifts given today,  
ours is the sky and the wide open range.  
It’s Christmas for cowboys, wide open plains.

All is quiet on New Year’s Day  
A world in white gets underway  
I want to be with you  
Be with you night and day  
Nothing changes on New Year’s Day

And she can make you believe  
You’re feeling almost sincere  
And every day’s New Years Eve  
She’s giggling in your ear

She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes  
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies  
And she only reveals what she wants you to see  
She hides like a child, but she’s always a woman to me

Now that I’m famous, you’re up my anus  
Now I’m gonna eat you, fool!

I eat boys up, breakfast and lunch  
Then when I’m thirsty, I drink their blood  
Carnivore animal, I am a cannibal  
I eat boys up, you better run

I am cannibal

Black boys are delicious  
Chocolate flavored love  
Licorice lips like candy  
Keep my cocoa handy  
I have such a sweet tooth  
When it comes to love

Once I tried a diet  
Of quiet, rest, no sweets  
But I went nearly crazy  
And I went clearly crazy  
Because I really craved for  
My chocolate flavored treats

You give me that funny feeling in my tummy…  
Move over dad 'cause I’m a double-dipper!  
Upside down on the zip-zip-zipper  
1,2,1,2,3, Oh, I′ve got a ticket so ride with me  
Mary go down on the merry-go-round  
All is fair on the fair ground  
Love go slow, love go fast  
Licorice twist gonna whip yo ass

I bet your mama was a tent show queen  
And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen

Brown sugar how come you taste so good, baby?  
Ah, brown sugar just like a young girl should, yeah

If I had a million dollars or ten  
I’d give it to your world and then  
You’d go away and let me spend  
My life in shu shu shu,  
Shu shu shu,  
shu shu shu shu shu shu Sugar Town.

If we stop to gaze upon a star  
People talk about how bad we are  
Ours is not an easy age  
We’re like tigers in a cage  
What a town without pity can do
