Here Again (7:35) I said I played this song so many times before that the melody keeps repeating growing new ideas, flowing chords and notes like a mountain river bleeding. Well, I say as I look back, And all the thoughts I've had, They reflect just what I'm learning. Yes, you know that the hardest part, Yes, I say it is to stay on top, On top of a world forever churning. Well, you say you can laugh, But I can see that your eyes are glass. Well, do you see, can't you see, what I'm feeling? Yes, I've seen your face before. Why, I've seen it everywhere, Showing up to me without a scent revealing. Well, I said will it ever change? Will it stay the same? I'd surely like to know before it's over. Well, I said I played some. I said it won't be long, Won't be long before I stop and play it over. Oh, oh I've, I've seen your face before. Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again? Oh, oh I've, I've been in one place too long. Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again? What You're Doing (4:22) Well, I see you standin' there with your finger in the air. Ev'rything we do, you wanna leave it up to you. Who do you think you are? You think you are a star, try'n' to run the town, always try'n' to put us down. Well, you think that you're right. You think you're out of sight. Tell me something, mister; why'd you have to make us so uptight? Well, you say you've been try'n'. You know that you're ly'n'. I think you need some groovin'. Who do you think you're foolin' now? Well, you better start changin'. You life needs rearrangin'. You better do some talkin' or you better do some walkin' now. Yeah, you think that you're right. You think you're out of sight. Tell me something, mister; why'd you have to make us so uptight? I know what you're doing, all that you been doin' wrong. I don't know what you're feelin', oh, but you been feelin' long. Well, you think that you're right. Tell me something, mister; why'd you have to make us so uptight? In The Mood (3:34) Hey now, baby, well, I like your smile. Won't you come and talk to me. for a little while. Well, you're makin' me crazy, the way you roll them eyes. Won't you come and sit with me. I'll tell you all my lies. Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight. I feel I'm in the mood. Hey baby, the hour is late. I feel I've got to move. Well, hey now, baby, Don't you talk so fast. I'm just try'n' to make these good times, I'm try'n' to make it last. Ev'rything's getting hazy. Now honey, where'd you go? I just want to find out, baby, where'd you learn what you know?

Still don't believe we're fadin', but now the world should wait. And now you're fina'lly list'nin' to what I have to say. Well, the time is right, and it is today. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe we could talk about it and try to get it straight. After all these years, baby, maybe it's too late. But I really need to have you by my side, And that's the only feelin', baby, I can't hide. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well you aren't list'nin', I ain't talkin', we ain't gettin' nowhere. I keep tryin' to get through to you baby. All you do is stare. I don't wanna see that.

Yes, I'm workin' all the time. It seems to me I could live my life a lot better than I think I am. I guess that's why they call me, they call me the workin' man. They call me the workin' man. I guess that's what I am. I get home at five o'clock, and I take myself out a nice, cold beer. Always seem to be wond'rin' why there's nothin' goin' down here. It seems to me I could live my life a lot better than I think I am. I guess that's why they call me, they call me the workin' man. They call me the workin' man. I guess that's what I am. Well they call me the workin' man. I guess that's what I am. Notes: Certified Gold by RIAA: February 1, 1995 - Highest Billboard Chart Position: 105 "The funny thing is, John was the lyricist in the band at the time, and he wouldn't submit the lyrics for any of these songs. So Geddy had to quickly put some lyrics together for it. I wrote the lyrics to 'Here Again,' but everything else was just sort of thrown together. And I think John probably regrets that, you know, to this day." - Alex Lifeson Contents Under Pressure "'Finding My Way', 'Need Some Love' and, I think, 'Here Again' were the songs that we rerecorded for the record. So we dropped 'Not Fade Away', 'Can't Fight It', and there may have been another one*...'In The Mood' was probably at least two years old, if not three, when we recorded the first record." - Geddy Lee, Contents Under Pressure [*The third song Geddy mentioned as being dropped from the original tracklist may have been "Fancy Dancer", an original Rush composition performed in the early '70's which during a performance on Nov. 19, 1974, he introduced as "one that will probably be on our next album". In the 1988 "Rush Backstage Club Newsletter", when asked why Fancy Dancer and Garden Road were never officially released, Neil replied, "... two original songs written before I joined the band... Well, why do you think we never recorded them?"]
