11. I don't think you're going to find it
I listened to snippets on allmusic, pulled some lines out of that, and googled them, and got 0 hits on all three search strings I tried. I don't think those lyrics are online, or at least, not searchably. www.archieroach.com says it's under construction, so maybe sometime...

13. You're welcome...
I think your best bet is going to be to transcribe the lyrics by hand, in this case. Good luck! Great music, from the bits I heard!

14. A fine cd/ singer/ songwriter.
I played the daylights out of that cd when it came out. Maybe I'll put it on today. I was going to suggest that you transcribe the lyrics by hand. I'm glad someone suggested that.
