1.	Roadtrip 03:31	lyrics	buy track
I took a road trip So I could breathe I had to catch my breath It came too easy I like it easy I took a road trip I drank gasoline I dined on road cuisine It was easy I like it easy I passed a big pine A tree of life Oh I cut down I cut it down I needed fuel It was easy I like it easy There's no truth I know that's hard There's no life In the the dark Don't put me down Without a pillow Cause I like it easy I like it easy
2.	By The Bushel 01:56	lyrics	buy track
My skin's greasy and sweaty From the fun the night before Stretched tired The best kind of sore Oh- I'm happy Yes I'm happy You're the answer at my door Do you hesitate or live in hate? Oh you're a flower A flower Your petals never torn Throw me away cause I'm happy The best kind of sore I kept a garden Scrape the dirt Grew the food That's why it always hurt I picked the orchard bushels Brought every day I milked the cows Caught the fish I even learned to play Left you berries By the door You threw them away Oh I'm happy So happy Cause you're a flower I don't care about you anymore
3.	Look Chikin 04:38	lyrics	buy track
Did you know the sky's not falling Did you know the world's not ending Did you know the sky's not falling Did you know the world's not ending Look around No one's running to the door The earth don't shake Cause you're alone All this panicked life Leaves me so annoyed Please look around You never think Anymore Did you know the sky's not falling Did you know the world's not ending Did you know the sky's not falling Did you know the world's not ending Breathe slow Oh, we're here again About you The meaning of life It isn't Keep breaking down Remind me to be ashamed Now I'm getting loud Guess we're not the same Did you know the sky's not falling Did you know the world's not ending Did you know the sky's not falling Did you know the world's not ending Look around
4.	Meet Me At Dawn 02:53	lyrics	buy track
In the morning when I'm still awake Will you you be here Will in the ashtray nothing on the floor Stretched taunt jittering hazing tween days A blind world running on auto Will you be here? Will you be here? Will you be here? I never feel as much as I felt Wherever I am, are you here? Will you be here? Will you be here? Will you be here? Hidden from rays I loved Lost in a haze missing trust Will you be here? Will you be here? Will you be here? I'm not anything I am more than nothing Will you be here? Will you be here? Will you be here? Will you hold my hand? Will you watch me fade? Will you be here? Past the march and parade Will you be here? Past our dawn and my grave Will you be here? Will you be here? Will you be here? Will you be here? Can I ask for love? Can I be here?
5.	Smash Into Porcelain 03:54	lyrics	buy track
I am a drop From the faucet of your river of life Resistance fighter From the damn of emotion I offer more than a fight I will Free fall So I crash into porcelain So I crash and I splash again I crash into porcelain And I crash and I splash again Against your porcelain Covering all As I smear As I drip down Drip down Your drain Your porcelain drain So I crash into porcelain So I crash and I splash again I crash into porcelain And I crash and I splash again You can wash me down Like all the drops I cannot break I am a drop From the faucet of your river of life A drop Within your drip So I crash into porcelain So I crash and I splash again I crash into porcelain And I crash and I splash again
6.	Spider Song 02:11	lyrics	buy track
Spider walked through a mess of cable Lookin for a place to make a new web Light came down out of heaven And now, that spider, he is dead When you spend your life on your knees Thinking you're not alone Careful what you wish for Like that spider, you could be taken back home Man wanted a good life Never meant a soul any wrong Took a quick step Looked right and not left And now that man, he is gone
7.	Let Your Pockets Keep Your Hands 03:04	lyrics	buy track
Yeah we walked on forever Took a rest at every controversy Every toke every sunrise we find We brought love and sold our fear For rags, and clouds, and miles, and children Oh we can, where'd ya think we go? No where, no place, no body For clouds, for a roof and a table of food Let your pockets keep your hands Make your head feel especially safe
8.	Shiny On My Shelf 05:04	lyrics	buy track
I've owned Two pairs of boots All of my life One on my feet the other on the shelf Them I save for night I don't expect them to fit good They make me feel fine They make me feel all right I look down and see my friends walking a long long time I look down I loose my friends walking a long long time Most of the life I spend waiting for night to come Hoping for night to come Cause I got a special pair of boots shiny on my shelf Sitting all alone No one knows I know No one knows I know I can't take them off I can't take them down I gotta sit on that shelf till night says I can be my self I got a special pair of boots Shiny all alone And I walk around waiting for the time I can be myself I've owned two pairs of boots for one pair of feet Most of all of my life I keep the nice ones shiny while night waits to come Its heel's an echo on my life Now the only pair of boots I need are what I own I think I'll leave those others on the shelf and spend more time with the old So many things I'll never know I wonder if I'll be old But not if I don't grow Not if I don't grow Got a shiny pair of boots sitting on the shelf and old ones on me feet
9.	Rain For Me 01:40	lyrics	buy track
Little gray cloud cover sun It's hurting my eyes and ruining my fun Little gray cloud bring me some rain Wash it all away wash it all away Listen to the sound of your fingers Pitter-patter on the rooftop tin Make it rain forever Make it rain bring me rain Again Sweet little things like new beginnings Keep the story from being boring Worried brows lead to messes Broken homes and empty houses Make it rain make it rain again
10.	My Special Peace 03:26	lyrics	buy track
In the middle Of the earth I found my grave I found it Before my time In the middle of the earth I found my way Long before I died Now I know I'm going away I'm going away long before my time I'm going away Got caught in the wind Swam against the tide Silly thing to do Especially when you know you're dead I know where I've been I know where I'm going I'm going away long before my time I'm going away Humble's a place I pray I'll spend more time How can I stay when I know I'm almost on my way I'm going away long before my time I'm going away
11.	Why So Cold 01:56	lyrics	buy track
Is it cold in your heart? The way you are Is it cold in your heart? The way you are I wanna know I wanna know Find love in the dark? In what you do Find love in the dark? In what you do I wanna know I wanna know I can't understand What makes you think you can I can't understand What makes you think you can I wanna know I wanna know
12.	Wooing House 02:34	lyrics	buy track
I am, I am, I am, the one you want I'm the one you want I'm the one- I'm the one you want and need I built this fire, I don't know why Oh, take the weight off your feet I built this house with the roof complete Shelter from any storm Shade from any heat Look at this house I built it I built it for you I built it Look at this Look at this house I built it I built it for you I built it Look at this Look at this house I built it for you The fire's getting cold outside The fire's getting cold Did you bring any wood Did you bring any wood This house is getting old Look at this house I built it This house's getting old Look at this house I built it This house's getting old Fire's outside Inside, it's just cold
13.	Hotel Room 04:00	lyrics	buy track
I would've moved mountains for you my dear It would've been swell sitting beneath moonlight Mais, je ne peux pas vous avoir Could you've given me a try Mais non I missed my flight whole week went awry I couldn't make it there to sit and stare Under cafe lit sky Mais, je ne peux pas vous avoir It was in London when I knew That we were to fall through It was a dreadful day I will never think of La Rochelle the same It was there we were to sing and dance Like I had tomorrow But no matter what I do Or how hard I try Mais je ne peux pas vous avoir maintenant je ne peux pas vous avoir Pas ce soir avec toi aujourd'hui ou demain Mais pourquoi je ne peux pas avoir La Rochelle
14.	Woodshed 06:13	lyrics	buy track
Just out the other side We've come to a resting place I wander through the window The reflection's my face I'm quiet now Though I don't want to be No more prayers now I will be free These shadows are my friends Their family comforts me Oh they hold my hand As I travel through my days I bury past beneath the fire The fire that lights my way Oh quiet now I am my resting place I breathe beneath a living sky Trail my hand through the waters of life I go easy, no reason to hide In this resting place I've found inside Oh I'm tired but I'm not alone I breathe for a while it feels so nice This is my house of broken mending I lay quiet in my time of healing Quiet now listen I am my resting place I'll go quiet now I am my resting place

about

Wooing House was recorded in 2 old houses, 1 basement, 1 closet and an Ipad. The Yev would like to thank Steve Jobs for inventing the one piece of recording equipment that didn't electrocute them.

We killed three babies before Wooing House started crying.

Luv on ya

The Yev
