I got a prom date now
it's really something else
I like it a whole lot more
than makin' love to myself
and now
if you wanted it so bad
all you had to do was ask
now you're runnin' round my back
don't you go and step on a crack
when she is on the rack
i will be satisfied
above my mantlepiece
stuffed and bound and tied

Angry Little Man
03:30
|
|||
you can turn up
but you can't turn off oh no
you're kicking and screaming
and begging your friends not to go
you want all the answers
you're buckets of fun my friend
you're sending signals
but she's too blind to comprehend
and if you
don't make your move
she'll be gone
and you'll be an angry little man
she'll move on
and you'll still be playing in the sand
as you can see
there's no reason to be in a rage
you should act like a man
not a scared little crab in a cage
she can smell your fear
when she's near and you're nervous to say
that you think she's thrilling
and you're more than willing to play
but if you
don't make your move
she'll be gone
and you'll be an angry little man
she'll move on
and you'll still be playing in the sand

I woke up in a cold sweat
from a dream about the war
even though the draft is sweeping me
up and out the door
I won't forget your tender face
when I'm off and far away
because you're the only reason
I'd ever want to stay
when our sight breaks at the terminal
and I'm waiting on the plane
I'll have to try and
forget you or else I'll go insane
for the thought of leaving you alone
is much too hard to bear
and even though I'm shipping out
I won't go anywhere
because it's you
I've been searching for
it's you
I've been searching for

OGBG j'ai un petit chien
comment est-ce que je suis riche oh oui
OGBG vous n'êtes pas mon type
je préfère ceux avec les cheveux courts
tu parles japonais? Je ne peux pas lire ce magazine
Ce magazine est un ballon
le nouveau film de Mars est ici
j'entends Lindsay Lohan est en elle
il ya beaucoup d'amis ici
mais pas autant que sur Mars oh non
tu parles japonais? Je ne peux pas lire ce magazine
Ce magazine est un ballon

Far Away So Close
02:54
|
|||
I'll tell you something
I'll tell you something about the war
there's a chair there
where there wasn't one before
everything has changed now
and i am just waiting to die
I've always thought of drowning
that's something that i ought to try
far away
far away, so close
never say
never say you won't
i am alive now
and I'm glad that I'm not dead
but I kind of miss it
the silence that had occupied my head
it's sort of tragic
the lives we're all going to lead
the blade against your skin
waiting and hoping that you'll bleed
far away
far away, so close
never say
never say you won't

The Parlor
02:06
|

as we turn in for the night
I hope you feel alright
and you just might feel a chill
over by the windowsill
the parlor man is gambling still
now
sir if I may please advise
a candle would be wise
and you just might feel a chill
over by the windowsill
the parlor man is gambling still
now
and if you cannot reconcile
I would conceal your smile
and you just might feel a chill
over by the windowsill
the parlor man is gambling still

Sewing Kit
02:08
|
|||
if the doctors could be bothered
to untangle the needles and thread
Seuss and Who can't do the do
and still prepare the dead
watch me wind the twine around
as they sigh and whine aloud
as if the moaning sounds they make
can interrupt the wake
if I had a sewing kit
I wouldn't know what to make of it
I'd stitch the dead ones back together
and leave the living alone
and so the evil king of skulls
sits upon his skull king throne
thinking of a bone to pick
and trying to pick a bone
watch me wind the twine around
as they sigh and whine aloud
as if the moaning sounds they make
can interrupt the wake
if I had a sewing kit
I wouldn't know what to make of it
I'd stitch the dead ones back together
and leave the living alone

halos
swirling round my head
am I really dead
or merely hurt instead
danger
is it really what i crave
would i really be it's slave
or my own skin I'd save
I could be drowning in
letters of love
falling like geometric
snow from above
pathos
is it what I lack
will I die from a heart attack
or a dagger in the back
hunger
is it what I feel
is it something real
or should I just deal
I could be drowning in
letters of love
falling like geometric
snow from above
flavor
in this book abounds
in this book it's bound
does this book astound
lovers
do they disappear
this is what I fear
when I hold you near
I could be drowning in
letters of love
falling like geometric
snow from above

Power Down
05:18
|
|||
I can't help it
my head is being shaken
every single inch of me
can't you see I'm breakin
you're trippin me up
it's enough
to knock me out
no doubt
try and understand me
you're messing up my body
you've got the things I need
no other girl can copy
you're on the offense
it's intense
and so absurd
word
lay you down
show you what you're missin'
go to town
your passion is my mission
don't you know
your body is a prison
lights down low
commence the solar fission
it's alright to take it slow sometimes
but we don't get this chance every night
it don't matter if you keep your clothes
you'll find out how it goes
before I power down
but was it enough girl
cause with you I'm ready
you can pass up on it
before the boat gets steady
cause it's true
i want you
to be with me
you see
I'll
lay you down
show you what you're missin'
go to town
your passion is my mission
don't you know
your body is a prison
lights down low
commence the solar fission
it's alright to take it slow sometimes
but we don't get this chance every night
it don't matter if you keep your clothes
you'll find out exactly how it goes

I guess I forgot you
when you were cold and alone
I brought you I found you
and I took you home
I dIdn't mInd the raIn
when you were by my sIde
and when you needed me
I had to hIde
I guess I forgot
but I'm not sorry
wIth tears fallIng down
your eyes look starry
I hadn't seen your face
sInce I left you that nIght
and I hope you fInd somebody
who makes you feel alrIght
I dIdn't mInd the raIn
when you were by my sIde
and when you needed me
I had to hIde
I guess I forgot
but I'm not sorry
wIth tears fallIng down
your eyes look starry
It wasn't me who apologIzed
even though It was my fault
and I'm not accustomed
to guIlt by default
I dIdn't mInd the raIn
when you were by my sIde
and when you needed me
I had to hIde
I guess I forgot
but I'm not sorry
wIth tears fallIng down
your eyes look starry
I guess I forgot you
when you were cold and alone
I brought you I found you
and I took you home

Washington
01:14
|
|||
in a suburb in Washington D.C.
as the sun peeks over the white picket fence
a sleepy head with government dreams
gets ready for school with exuberance
and he knows that the class
has a field trip planned
and he hopes that Sarah wants
to hold his hand
and if she doesn't want to
then he'll raise the holding hands tax
when he's president
everybody here will want to be his friend
when he's president
he'll be too busy to read the letters they send
and Sarah will want
to talk to him
but she can only get
to secret service men
and even if she wants to
Sarah can't hold his hand
