- Hurry Up And Wait -
A car bomb alarm clock, that's no fun,
you know a tick tock aftershock's enough to wake anyone.
It's a right hook, uppercut, swing and a miss,
but today I'm gonna connect you to my follow through.
You know a pat on the back's like a kick in the balls,
you know there ain't any love to be found 'round here at all.
Hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait, hurry up, hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait some more.
*****
Second place, is the first loser,
no nothing but winning puts a smile on your face.
You've got that extra step, and you're beating your chest,
but I have found that certain apes are much better dressed.
Easy come, easy go, love and hate,
you know it's my time to leave, and I can hardly wait.
Once again, hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait, hurry up, hurry up and wait, hurry up, oh hurry and wait.
*****
Hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait, hurry up, hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait, hurry up... x2
*****
Hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait, hurry up, hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait, hurry up... x2

-Take An Educated Guess-
Most of what they taught me, I've forgotten.
Then again, what I learned was easy to forget.
And all my poetry is fantasy.
I believe, sometimes it is better to pretend,
that what is really happening, won't make me cry.
I'm telling you those tears will get you by.
They get you by.
See yourself through someone else's eyes...
When the teacher spoke I did not hear a word.
Then again, what McGinty said was easy to ignore.
Now all my poetry is fantasy.
I believe, sometimes it is better to pretend,
that what is really happening, won't make me cry.
I promise you those tears they get you by.
They'll get you by.
See yourself through someone else's eyes...
Why don't you come and find me?
Why don't you come and find me?
Take an educated guess...
Take an educated guess...
Take an educated guess...

Christian McNeill Boston, Massachusetts
Christian McNeill is an underground legend whose music demands to be experienced. Longtime Boston journalist, Nate Dow, describes him best, "..his blend of styles and influences is intoxicating, turning elements of soul, gospel and R&B into a cocktail that rocks. McNeill’s stage presence is natural, unaffected and powerfully evocative, almost overwhelming. It is part of the entertainment package." ... more
