To assist all those fans scouring the web looking for the songs featured on the July 28 episode of The Cleaner after they air, here's lyric sheet to assist our SEO efforts.

Friends in California
by Riviera

It's good to see you in the morning
The pale light shining through the window shade
A cool breeze blowing over features
Slowly showing age

You don?t remember how we got here
But I can tell you it was luck
The poison?s rising to the surface
Now I've had enough

I've got some friends in California
I think they'll take us for a while
Just time enough to get our blood clean
And ease our minds

It doesn't seem like seven years ago
But I can't count it on one hand
That many years since we've had memories
To make or have

And now we're living in a bad dream
And I can't tell when we're awake
We shout for money and for glory
Now it's running late

Golden Lies
by Riviera

And you're right I've had some time to decide
Taking sides to cry won't make it right
So deny as much as you think will get by
Making light of life keeps you inside

And golden lies hover nearby
You said you'd cry, and you're right

So you cry and sorrow helps keep you high
Making time on the side keeps you in sight
So I try to hold you when I've got no right
Oh, besides it's time to let you inside

I always dug 'Friends In California' a lot - glad it's getting a wider audience.

I am told from sources in the Eastern timezone that the Riviera songs appeared in tonight's episode, not next week's.

Airs at 10:00 on the Pacific side of the country.

The two songs were in fact featured in tonight's episode: "Golden Lies" when William is out surfing and wipes out, and "Friends in California" during closing credits.

Well, that's a bummer. We were planning a watching party for next week.

For those of you who still want to see it, A&E is re-playing the episode ("Split Ends") on Monday, July 27 at 10:00pm Central and on Tuesday, July 28 at 2:00am Central. Set your Tivos!
