"Sleeve" lyrics
"Sleeve"
Started out with one then he got two
Then he got three, four, five, six
Seven eight nine ten eleven twelve tattoos
Then he went back, and he surpassed twenty-three
Now he got a sleeve
Now he got a sleeve
Now he got a sleeve
Elephants, mushrooms, racing flames, arrows
And a crucifix
Dragons, muscle car, and a heart
That says, mom
Got herself one, then she got two
Then she got three, four, five, six
Seven eight nine tattoos
Then she went again got another ten
Going back every weekend
Now she got a sleeve
Now she got a sleeve
Now she got a sleeve
Butterflies, roses, UFOs, tigers
And a motorcycle
Angels, peace sign, and a heart
That says, mom
Octopus, wizards, ace of spades, yin yang
And Tweety Bird
Pot leaf, astronaut, mermaid, and skulls
Dinosaurs, eagles, volcanoes
And scorpions
Dolphins, shooting stars, and a heart
That says, mom

Sheryl Crow - "My Favorite Mistake" Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I woke up and called this morning
The tone of your voice was a warning
That you don't care for me anymore
I made up the bed we sleep in
I looked at the clock when you creep in...
Natalie Merchant - "Carnival" I've walked these streets
A virtual stage
It seemed to me
Make up on their faces
Actors took their
Places next to me
I've walked these streets
In a carnival
Of sights to see
All the cheap thrill...
Emmylou Harris & Linda Ronstadt - "For A Dancer" Keep the fire burning in your eyes
Pay attention to the open sky
You'll never know what will be coming down
I don't remember losing track of you
You're always dancing in and out of view
I must have...
Joan Osborne - "Ladder" Today and everyday, today and everyday
Today and everyday, today and everyday
I'm standin' here in your closet
Unbuttonin' all your clothes
I sleep in your bed tonight
But I never find you home...
The Jayhawks - "Blue" Where have all my friends gone
They've all disappeared
Turned around maybe one day
You're all that was there
Stood by unbelievin'
Stood by on my own
Always thought I was someone
Turned out I was...
