Clean Up

Dirty mugs lining my dresser
Circle stains remaining long after
clean up
Clean up
Toss in bed until 9:30
Dishes left, my house is dirty
Clean up
Clean up
After my coffee I'm ready to find us work
I can't seem to buy you all of the things you're worth
It hurts
Clean Up
But if you give me more time let me figure this out
A little more love to ease my doubt
A couple more years and we'll reach the top
This guitar is gonna give us our way out
Please don't give up now
Car was towed at nine this morning
Minneapolis I need more warning
Clean up
Street clean up
To the impound with the rest of the city
This part of town is awfully filthy
Clean up
Street clean up
Making us dinner was never this difficult
We don't have the option to go out as often
We work until
clean up
But if you give me more time let me figure this out
A little more love to ease my doubt
A couple more years and we'll reach the top
This guitar is gonna give us our way out
Please don't give up now
All in a circle all in the round
Together we sing around and around

Do Ask Do Tell
03:16

What's the country asking from me
Why do i feel threatened to be
beside the love of our time
On the news I hear people screaming
In the streets the bigotry seethes
Embracing hate spreading lies
Defacing love it's unkind
Emancipate your mind
Love is what it takes when the hate around you breaks through the sound of
Love will saturate our minds
I was always taught to be kind
Help the ones struggling to get by
Do ask do tell if you love
Fighting two wars for our freedom
From a foreign hate we're undone
but a closer hate is right here
In our churches, schools, in the mirror
Do ask do tell we're right here
To stand up
Love is what it takes when the hate around you breaks through the sound of
Love will saturate our minds

Vegas Is My Weakness
03:55

If I had one do over if I had one last try
I’m sure that I would place it all on black this time
If I had one do over if I had one last try
I’m sure that I would pass on another hit this time
I’m sure that I would stand with 16
Vegas is my weakness honey
Vegas is my style
Wake me when the band starts playing
We’ll walk the strip for a while
And then play
If I had one do over if I had one last try
I’m sure that I would stop while I’m ahead this time
If I had one do over if I had one last try
I’m sure that I would pass on another free drink this time
I’m sure that I would stop after three
Vegas is my weakness honey
Vegas is my style
Wake me when the band starts playing
Let’s walk the strip for a while
And then play
Well I don’t recall the last time
that I felt my heart this way
Well this burning yearning love I feel
is driving me insane
Vegas is my weakness honey
Vegas is my style
Wake me when the band starts playing
We'll walk the strip for awhile
And then play

Ari Herstand Los Angeles, California
Ari Herstand’s most recent offering, Like Home, explores the idea of what home means. And where to find it when the concept has been shattered. In a period when so many have been confined to their homes, this is an exploration that couldn’t be more worthy of the times. ... more
