At my friend's place They've got some cats and they've got a guitar Sometimes we get together To play some boardgames We get in our car It's not very far To my friend's house across the way For another magical day We couldn't hardly stay away At my friend's place They've got some cats and they've got a guitar When they invite us over We stop what we're doing We get in our car It's not very far

Growing old and growing beards Was my plan all along To sit out on the lawn With a glass of tea And my family too Although they never knew Whether I could grow a beard or not And I never told you Because I never knew Whether or not I could grow a beard Whether or not I could grow a beard

It took every dance move that we had Made us feel sorrowful then glad All the classic styles And every passing fad All of the moves that we had We continued dancing into the night The moon had gently given us it's light Grappling with our styles Trying to get them right All the way through the night When we reached the breaking of the dawn All of our fears were finally gone

Baby unicorn and the mommy unicorn Lived in a castle a long long time ago Not too far from there Was a fearsome dragon's lair Hidden away in a tiny mountain of snow (But) One day, as fortunes turn The lightning struck and the castle burned But the dragon saw the smoke from the sky Spread his wings and flew to their side (And he) Saved the unicorn and the baby unicorn He flew them away so they could stay at his place for a time (He said) "They'll rebuild your home it was written in the dragon's tome my place isn't much but as such you can share what is mine"

There was a man in times of old Who sang his songs on harps of gold He sang them in the silver dawn He sang them well, but now he's gone I'll sing his song for you For I remember songs he sang to me He sang: Potatoes Potatoes in springtime Nice to have around But take a one you've found And put it in the ground It grows for you

Man created robot to be his friend But, since he had made them He thought they were pretend But robot friends are true as true can be So what was their friendship If not reality? Robots are the best friends we could want And they want to know us Robots tell us something we could learn And they want to show us Hand in hand, we've journeyed through the years Through trials and tribulations Joyousness and tears When time marches past the age of man Robots will tell our stories Let's make it what we can Robots are the best friends we could want And they want to know us Robots show us something we could learn And they want to show us And they want to show us

Weird Romance Everybody's trying to take a chance Taking a chance At a weird romance Try as I may To hide among the stones I gave myself away Weird Romance Everybody's trying to catch a glimpse Catching a glance Of a weird romance Maybe it was All a dream to me Or all a dream to us

Baby, baby Thinking about you is just so easy Because you're my baby And you're so good to me I couldn't have imagined How good it could be And the nights can be cold without you But I know I'll be dreaming about you Cause you're my baby And when the weather is cold and stormy I see the light that you left on for me Because Baby, baby Thinking about you is just so easy Because you're my baby And you're so good to me I couldn't have imagined How good it could be

It's okay At the end of the day I've been known to return to zero Pack my bags and I go back to Where I start Not a phase I go through It's a way that I am bound to It's a place that I am drawn to It's my house and I've been living there many years It's my house and I Know it well and I Like to return to my house after every day Okay? It's okay At the end of the day I've been known to return to zero Pack my bags and I go back to Where I start
