Look in the mirror What do you see All of life staring back at me Are you pleased With what you've done In your time underneath the sun In this house Where time has died Nowhere to fear, nowhere to cry On your own No one around On the monolith Upside down Try not to lean On what you know The sun will set And the day will go A white room Now time is black Once you go babe you can't go back Take it easy Lose your mind I got bad habits That kill all the time Now we're here In this place I see no sounds and I hear no face All I see Is the pouring rain In the lake of fire In a world of pain
2.
Moja knows that I can't come and get you Out of your hiding place Moja knows that you shouldn't run around with Your eyeballs outta your face And even Moja knows that you don't know what you're doing With that old guitar in your hand Now come on back let me play you one to show you Who is who and who is not you You know back when I was in high school The guy Moja told me something He said you can't let a Goddamn soul catch you lacking Or else you're better off with nothing Don't let anyone tell you What the hell kinda music to play I think I've got something to tell you now son So you better just back away
3.
Well the Earth looks a little bit smaller today A few light years from where I was yesterday I can feel it in my soul I was born to fly Out here never know what you'll find When you fly, on Discovery One Well I've been riding on the trail I'm one ox away from hell Well I been riding on the trail I've got one thousand pounds of hell Seems like if I keep going I might as well get a thrill Well the passes are tight and The snow is pounding on the wagon Well the passes are tight and The snow is pounding on the wagon If I keep on going You know I'm gonna do me Some shaggin' Well the price is rising And the dollars keep getting short Well the price is rising And the dollars keep getting short Well I know it's been a long, long Back to Blaine County port Well I passed the Donner party And they was having lunch Well I passed the Donner party And they was having lunch Something's wrong with them I believe I have a hunch
4.
It's something I had always dreamed of every day Something I had said I wouldn't ever stray away Starship aeroplane into the crash of universe Heroes and villains all in the same shirts There is just one threat to us That will not go away The Romulans land and they're here to stay Fly with me All across the galaxy you know you're free I'm set into my phaser I am here to please Don't forget your helmet There's no air to breathe In our Starfleet Feeling torn on what to do With no help from one of you Gorn is chasing after me I'll throw a rock in the breeze Solar flares light the sky As the Enterprise passes by Deep Space Nine where to go Take this pill and drink it slow In a time of Armageddon They're closing in on Rigel 7 Chekov go take the helm I've got to enter the psychic realm Fly with me All across the galaxy you know you're free I'm set into my phaser I am here to please Don't forget your helmet There's no air to breathe In our Starfleet Their phaser bolts tear us up We need that hyper speed Go to work and save the ship Now Scotty send that beam The Federation won't do us right We gotta make it back alive Send it through the outer rim No landing spot close in sight
5.
The news is out - all over town That you've been seen - a-runnin' 'round I know that I - should leave, but then I just can't go - you win again. This heart of mine - could never see What ev'rybod - y knew but me Just trusting you - was my great sin What can I do - you win again. I'm sorry for - your victim now 'Cause soon his head - like mine will bow He'll give his heart - but all in vain And someday say - you win again. You have no heart - you have no shame You take true love - and give the blame I guess that I - should not complain I love you still - you win again.

My babe don't stand no cheatin', my babe Oh no she don't stand no cheatin', oh no Oh no she don't stand no cheatin', She don't stand no midnight dealin' My babe, don't stand no cheatin', my babe My baby don't stand no foolin', my babe Oh no, she don't stand no foolin', woah no Oh no, she don't stand no foolin', When she's hot there ain't no coolin' My babe, don't stand no foolin' My baby don't stand no cheatin', my babe Oh no she don't stand no cheatin', oh no Oh no she don't stand no cheatin', My babe, don't stand no cheatin', my babe

Said you wouldn't be home late tonight I gave up waiting at seventeen past midnight Now my only company's a half full glass of wine Leave me no choice but to plot my revenge You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge Been so long, since I held your hand You don't know how hard it can be Thank God I've been blessed with a patient mind 'Cause what I want to happen won't happen in a very long time Now my only company's a half full glass of wine No choice but to plot my revenge You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge It's been so long, since I held your hand You don't know how hard it can be You don't know how hard it can be
8.
Running after you Chasing what is true There's nothing like the night To come and sacrifice What is given away One just cannot say Why I'm gone tomorrow And why I'm here today Can't you see there's more to show Than what we might already know Can't you tell it ain't for good Your mama didn't tell you That we're all misunderstood Forty-first and main Put 'em all to shame Always near and high And out of sight You turned me on What else could go wrong But it turns out I'm not the one you want Can't you see there's more to show Than what we might already know Can't you tell it ain't for good Your mama didn't tell you That we're all misunderstood
9.
Look my baby, comin’ round the bend Look my baby comin’ round the bend They don’t find me now son, it's gonna be the end Running through a nighttime street and the wind do howl Running through a nighttime street and the wind do howl But it do not mean I can’t run no-how Goin' in to the outside, out to the in Comin' 'round to the new and square to the old I got the blues please mama and my flow is cold Y’all understand what I'm tryna say I said y'all understand what I'm tryna say I can’t help nobody, just let me play

// RECORDED LIVE 11/12/2022 \\

The Kubes' second live show in this series takes us to
FARMSTOCK

The three-day festival was held November 11-13 2022 on a farm outside of downtown Denton. The Kubes played the middle day in the afternoon, prior to when the festival was shut down by local police for noise complaints.

Regardless, this three-track recording is a great quality tape of the Kubes' entire performance. Sourced from the original onstage recording, there is a lack of vocal presence but the instruments are highlighted and clear.

This setlist is a transitional period from the '22 tour dates into the 'In To The Outside'-focused setlists from '23.

This show features the live debut of the medley "Discovery One > Oregon Trail Boogie" and the D1 song "Star Trek".

Some great covers on display here like the Europe '72-inspired Hank Williams tune "You Win Again" and the Spencer-led Tame Impala "Half Full Glass of Wine"

The great "Your Mama" - "Outside" ending is a peek into the Kubes' 'In To The Outside' album a few months before its release.
