"Surprise, Surprise Lyrics – Brett Dennen

Dark clouds gather in the afternoon
Come together just to cry
Seagulls struggling against the wind
Falling out of the sky
Grandma's gathering aluminum cans in a rusty shopping cart
Born-againers getting their lives together while my whole world's falling apart
Open up your eyes
It's happening all around you
If it hasn't found you
Well You know it's just a matter of time
Surprise surprise
What do you think the world owes you
It's not the way it's supposed to go
Well you know It's just a matter of time
Songbird sitting in a tree house with a trumpet to her lips
I'm laying on my back in the tall green grass staring up at the eclipse
Whispers lurking in the alley behind where the children where no shoes
Call girls and corner kids hustling saying what do you got to lose
Open up your eyes
It's happening all around you
If it hasn't found you
Well You know it's just a matter of time
Surprise surprise
What do you think the world owes you
It's not the way it's supposed to go
Well you know It's just a matter of time
And there's nowhere you can run to because the eyes are upon you
Some of the coming up hard and hungry
Stepping up to take your turn
Some of them throwing their money in the fire
Just to watch it burn
Open up your eyes
It's happening all around you
If it hasn't found you
Well You know it's just a matter of time
Surprise surprise
What do you think the world owes you
It's not the way it's supposed to go
Well you know It's just a matter of time

Dancing At A Funeral Lyrics – Brett Dennen

Now's not the time to be so sad and mournful
We are going to the funeral and we'll be dancing the night away
So, so, so don't be so shy, we are living and we're dying
We are laughing and we're crying every single day

Strange we're not surprising, [?]
How we tasted death like this to bring us together
You know you'll always be my flesh and blood
I could never do you wrong
And the one who was gone for so long is coming home

Alright now's not the time to be so sad and mournful
We are going to the funeral and we'll be dancing the night away
So, so, so don't be so shy, we are living and we're dying
We are laughing and we're crying every single day

We are getting older at the blink of an eye
So don't let the moment pass you by
I don't believe there is a greater love, one [?] and pain
And the love between a momma and her children

And the procession down to the light house
We hear the crashing of the waves and the mistakes we made
You know that we are not the only ones so we can have some fun
Have some, have some, have some, have some fun

Now's not the time to be so sad and mournful
We are going to the funeral and we'll be dancing the night away
So, so, so don't be so shy, we are living and we're dying
We are laughing and we're crying every single day, every single day

It's not the time to be so, to be so sad
We are going to the funeral and we'll be dancing the night away
So, so, so don't be so shy, we are living and we're dying
We are laughing and we're crying every single day, every single day

Comeback Kid (That's My Dog) Lyrics – Brett Dennen

Well, maybe it's the common curse
Maybe things get bad before they get worse
I don't wanna become someone
Who can't live up to what already done

Don't keep it just to figure it out
When it rains and pours, and then it runs out
I was crying on the bathroom floor
And just when I thought I could take no more

Well, here comes a comeback
The kid is back, is back on track
And there goes my hero
He's an underdog, he's coming out on top
And come on, come on back, that's my dog

It was a park of the trailer park
She went whistling through the big yard
She came to raise the dead
And I was a stain on her unmade bed

I found a lover and then I lost myself
And now I'm nowhere, she's somewhere else
And the boys with the brown, skinny legs
Said you're on and on, she sees but I say

Hey, here comes a comeback
The kid is back, is back on track
And there goes my hero, he's an underdog
He's coming out on top

And everybody loves a comeback
So come on back, now, comeback, comeback
Everybody loves the underdog
Singing that's my dog, that's my dog

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Hey

I've never been laid so low
Never been laid so low, low, low, low
Why was I the last to know?
Why was I the last to know?

Hear the words, I've never been laid so low
Never been laid so low, low, low, low
Don't let me be the last to know
Don't let me be the last to know

Here comes a comeback
The kid is back, is back on track

And everybody loves a comeback
So come on back, now, comeback, comeback
Everybody loves the underdog
Singing that's my dog, that's my dog

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, that's my dog
That's my, that's my dog

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog

Sydney (I'll Come Running) Lyrics – Brett Dennen

Sydney, whenever you feel unhappy
All you have to do is call me
I can make you laugh
Sydney, I know that you were wrongly accused
I hope you don't lose your sense of humor
Allegations made in the school yard
Soccer moms gossip in the dog park
Their bark is worse then their bite
They're only a couple of crazy cougars
They're bored and spreading their desperate rumors

You know that I was never that cool
But I won't be taken for a fool
If they wanna talk trash
They can talk, talk, talk
But they better come (collect)
And if you ever need me, call me
I'll come runnin' straight to you

Straight from the airport
(I'll come runnin')
Cut through the customs line
(I'll come runnin')
Bust down the courthouse doors
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney, I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney, I will testify to ya

We were in the basement
Just giving our blood on stage and
Pretending that we were famous
While you were getting framed
I went back to my room in Surrey Hills, yes I did
I didn't know you were in trouble until you came in
Just as skinny as a twig in my kitchen
And told me I was looking at a dead man
I said, "Sydney, you're wrong."

There's a lot of good people living in LA, yes there are and
We won't let nobody take you away, no we won't

You know I was never that cool
But I won't be taken for a fool
If the wanna talk trash they can talk, talk, talk
But they better come (collect)
And if you ever need me you just call me
I'll come runnin' to you

Straight from the airport
(I'll come runnin')
Cut through the customs line
(I'll come runnin')
Bust down the courthouse doors
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
I will testify
(I'll come running')
I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
to ya, to ya, to ya

Sydney whenever you think you need me
Call me up and I'll come runnin' straight to you

I was never that cool
But I won't be taken for a fool
If the wanna talk trash they can talk, talk, talk
But they better come (collect)
And if you ever need me you just call me
I come runnin' to ya

Straight from the airport
(I'll come runnin')
Cut through the customs line
(I'll come runnin')
Bust down the courthouse doors
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
Sydney I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
I will testify
(I'll come running')
I will testify
(I'll come runnin')
to ya, to ya, to ya
I will testify

Make You Fall In Love With Me Lyrics – Brett Dennen

[Verse:]
I saw you dance and sing on stage
With your bare feet and your hair in braids
You pressed your lips against your horn
If I could only be the notes you mourn

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ever since I heard my first love song
I've been looking for you all along
I know I can't be wrong

[Chorus:]
I know you don't feel it now
But I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Someday baby somehow
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Oooooo
Oooooo

[Verse:]
I wanna strum upon your strings
And make you cry love cry a loving
Dance drunk into your heart's beat
And kiss you in the moonlight in the middle of the street

[Pre-Chorus:]
I know that we've both been here before
In another lifetime maybe more
It's karma I'm sure

[Chorus:]
I know you don't feel it now
But I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Someday baby somehow
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Oooooo
Oooooo

[Bridge:]
I took you driving down to Big Sur
Down the coast of California
You held your head out of the window
And you stared out at the ocean
You never heard the albums Graceland or Blue
I played them both for you
The songs of my youth

[Chorus:]
I know you don't feel it now
But I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Someday baby somehow
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
Oooooo
Oooooo

Only Rain Lyrics – Brett Dennen

You haven't said it but I hear it so loud
And there's a cloud around your head, yes it is
I stick around, I could be a stranger in your town
Or I could fly half way around the world just to be turned down

Don't hold back your tears from falling
Don't pretend they're for me, darling
You can tell me I'm not the one
I know the sun is shining somewhere
Oh, on someone it's only rain

Doesn't mean the day's over
It don't change the way I feel, it doesn't change a thing
Only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, yes, it is

You gone on magazines and the silver screen
They hear the gold that's in your heart
I'll be fine, oh, I can stay with an old friend of mine
I can find myself some California wine

Don't hold back your tears from falling
Don't pretend they're for me, darling
You can tell me I'm not the one
I know the sun is shining somewhere
On someone it's only rain

Doesn't mean the day's over
It don't change the way I feel, it doesn't change a thing
It's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain, it's only rain
Yes, it is, alright, yeah, it's only rain, oh yeah

Ooh, ooh, oh yeah, it's only rain, doesn't mean the day is over
It don't change the way I feel, no way, it doesn't change a thing
No, it doesn't change a thing, doesn't change a thing
Doesn't change a thing, no, it's only rain, it's only rain, yes, it is

Ooh, it's only rain, it's only
