Track Name: Phoney Baloney
I lifted up the stone
Took the keys and let myself inside your home
I looked around
I took a smoke and read your magazine
On the Cape Town music scene
But it just depressed me
I don't know why but it just hit me
Everything just seemed so phoney
Phoney baloney
Not like me
Track Name: Made no bones
My foundations
They were built upon the sand
But you showed patience
As I rebuilt on better land
You showed love when others ran
You showed love when others ran

And all the judgments
That were placed upon my head
You ignored them
And drew near to me instead
You believed when others fled
You believed when others fled

You never cast no stones
You never made no bones
About the things I did
About the things I said
And to know you
Is to love you
My friend
Track Name: Leave all the negative people behind
I tried to be holy
I tried to be strong
I tried to fix all the things
I was told were wrong
I walked on a high wire
And never looked down
But I missed all the people
Down on the ground

Somebody told me
You'll never get far
That life is for living
So be who you are
Open your heart
And open your mind
Leave all the negative people behind
Track Name: Dale brook scenes
Whiskey and Coke
Black Label and smoke
Sharks in our trees
Wind in the seas
Slowing the speed
Removing the seeds
I like to sit around the fire and watch it burn
And feel at ease

Dalebrook scenes
Track Name: Stick in a stream
Turn the other cheek
Over a new leaf
Down a different street
Learn what to accept
And what to reject
How to connect

Lay down by my side
Tell me all of the things
That you're hoping to find
Face up to the fact
That time is going fast
And that you can't go back

Leave the past behind
And any ties that bind
Let them wither and die
Be like a stick in a stream
Let the water flow
And go where ever it leads
