MARK |
How Do You Document Real Life |
When Real Life’s Getting More |
Like Fiction Each Day |
Headlines — Bread-Lines |
Blow My Mind |
And Now This Deadline |
Eviction — Or Pay |
Rent |
ROGER |
How Do You Write A Song |
When The Chords Sound Wrong |
Though They Once Sounded Right And Rare |
When The Notes Are Sour |
Where Is The Power You Once Had To Ignite the Air |
MARK |
And We’re Hungry And Frozen |
ROGER |
Some Life That We’ve Chosen |
TOGETHER |
How We Gonna Pay |
How We Gonna Pay |
How We Gonna Pay |

MARK |
We Light Candles |
ROGER |
How Do You Start A Fire |
When There’s Nothing To Burn |
And It Feels Like Something’s Stuck In Your Flue |
MARK |
How Can You Generate Heat |
When You Can’t Feel Your Feet |
BOTH |
And They’re Turning Blue! |
MARK |
You Light Up A Mean Blaze |
ROGER |
With Posters- |
MARK |
And Screenplays |

There May Have Been One Teeny Tiny Spark |
You’re Not Calling Mark |
COLLINS |
How Do You Stay On Your Feet |
When On Every Street |
It’s 'Trick Or Treat' |
(And Tonight It’s 'Trick') |
'Welcome Back To Town' |
I Should Lie Down |
Everything’s Brown |
And Uh — Oh I Feel Sick |

Allison Baby — You Sound Sad |
I Don’t Believe Those Two |
After Everything I’ve Done |
Ever Since Our Wedding |

Forces Are Gathering |
Forces Are Gathering |
Can’t Turn Away |
Forces Are Gathering |

Ughhhhh- |
