Tall Tales and Hired Thieves: The Legend of Gilbert Pike and His Carbonear Princess
By the Evergreen Standard
Maybe I can leave
Maybe we can see the world from here
Tall tales and silent seas
One discovery, I think I found my way
And I can’t imagine it without you
One discovery, I think I found my way
And I know, and I need it
That maybe someday
And I guess, there may be one way
Tall tales and hired thieves
Maybe I can see home from here
Pardons from her majesty
Giving up on hope, it seems so far away
And I can’t imagine it without you
One discovery, I think I found my way
Tall tales and hired thieves
No one hangs but me
Maybe one way
And I know, and I need it
That maybe someday
And I guess there may be one way
Tall tales and hired thieves
Maybe I can see the world
Maybe some day
Maybe one way
Tall tales and hired thieves
Maybe I can see the world
Maybe one day

Perfect Examples
By The Evergreen Standard
Perfect examples of what keeps you around
And lets you go at once
Listed ones I’ve tried
Holding onto nothing new
All your intentions make the rounds
Holding up the ways
One mistake
Makes you feel out of place
I might let you know
I might let you know its
It’s coming
I’m just not that sure
I just don’t believe you
You’ll see it
You can take the blame
While you can make it up to me
Miles that break
You can take
You want more
You want more
I might let you know
I might let you know it’s coming
I’m just not that sure
I just don’t believe you
You’ll see it

There’s No Crying in Baseball
By The Evergreen Standard
I’m not going to feel the weight
Of being out done
A handsome change of fate today
I’m not going to say run
Only if you play
I’m not going to say run
Quick change direction
We can turn around instead
Favour everything in store for
A small lack of side steps
We can put it all down
What would you ask me?
There’s no crying in baseball
Batter up, put it down
You’re out, not done
With a change of mind, dear
You can sever the ways you’ll
You’ll get called out
Not today
I’m not going to feel the weight
With those few outs, 2 strikes in the slightest change in score
Recognize that we might win, it hardly makes it more
I’m not going to say run
Only if you play
I’m not going to say run
Quick change direction
We can turn around instead
Favour everything in store for
There’s no crying in baseball
Batter up, put it down
You’re out, not done
For today
I’m not going to feel the weight

Touch and Go
By The Evergreen Standard
I’m running scared
I’m about to break
These legs don’t care
If my body’s late
And you don’t care
I can hear those standout cries
They seem to force me down
I can see those evil eyes
What came, was that sound
As long as you’re okay
Making sense is much too slow
We should settle in
As it’s all touch and go
You don’t mind
And I don’t care
You don’t mind
And I don’t care
I thought I’d let you know
I thought I’d let you know
It’s all touch and go
And I want you to know
It’s all touch and go
And I want you to know
It’s all touch and go
It’s all touch and go

Frankly My Dear
By The Evergreen Standard
It’s a little late
To be getting phone calls
I’m assuming, that it didn’t work out
That it didn’t go the way, that you had planned
You should know
Frankly my dear
I don’t give a…
This whole time
It was never said to me, but I know when
I can keep you warm, you can keep me afraid
We can regulate
We should know
Frankly my dear
I don’t give a damn!
Frankly my dear
Frankly my dear
I don’t give a damn! X4
And I don’t know
What it was you said to me
And I don’t know
You can’t take it back
And I don’t know
