1. About a Girl
I need an easy friend I do with a hand to lend I don't think you fit this shoe I do, won't you have a clue
I'll take advantage while You hang me out to dry But I can't see you every night Free
I'm standing in your line I do hope you have the time I do pick a number too I do keep a date with you
I'll take advantage while You hang me out to dry But I can't see you every night Free
I need an easy friend I do whip her in to land I do think you fit this shoe I do won't you have a clue
I'll take advantage while You hang me out to dry But I can't see you every night No I can't see you every night Free I do
2. Come As You Are
Come As you are As you were As I want you to be As a friend As a friend As an old enemy Take your time Hurry up The choice is yours Dont' be late Take a rest As a friend As an old memoria
Come Dowsed in mud Soaked in bleach As I want you to be As a trend A a friend As an old memoria
And I swear That I don't have a gun No I don't have a gun
memoria {don't have a gun}
And I swear That I don't have a gun No I don't have a gun
memoria
3. Jesus doesn't Want Me For A Sunbeam
Jesus don't want me for a sunbeam Sunbeams are never made like me Don't expect me to cry, for all the reasons you had to die Don't ever ask your love of me
Don't expect me to cry, Don't expect me to lie, Don't expect me to die, for thee
4. The Man Who Sold the World
We passed upon the stair,we spoke of was and when Although I wasn't there,he said I was his friend Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes I thought you died alone,a long long time ago
Oh no,not me I never lost control You're face to face With The Man Who Sold The World
I laughed and shook his hand,and made my way back home I searched for form and land,for years and years I roamed I gazed a gazley stare at all the millions here We must have died along,a long long time ago
Who knows? not me We never lost control You're face to face With the Man who Sold the World
5. Pennyroyal Tea
I'm on my time with everyone I have very bad posture Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea Distill the life that's inside of me Sit and drink Pennyroyal tea I'm anemic royalty Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld So I can sigh enternally I'm so tired I can't sleep I'm a liar and a thief
Sit and drink pennyroyal Tea I'm anemic royalty I'm on warm milk and laxatives Cherry-flavored antacids
6. Dumb
I'm not like them But I can pretend The sun is gone But I have a light The day is done But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb or maybe just happy Think I'm just happy my heart is broke But I have some glue help me inhale And mend it with you We'll float around] And hang out on clouds Then we'll come down And I have a hangover...Have a hangover
Skin the sun Fall asleep Wish away The soul is cheap Lesson learned Wish me luck Soothe the burn Wake me up
I'm not like them But I can pretend The sun is gone But I have a light The day is done But I'm having fun
7. Polly
Polly wants a cracker Think I should get off of her first I think she wants some water To put out the blow torch
It isn't me We have some seed Let me clip Your dirty wings Let me take a ride Don't hurt yourself I want some help To help myself I've got some rope You have been told I promise you I have been true Let me take a ride Don't hurt yourself I want some help To help myself
Polly wants a cracker Maybe she would like more food She asks me to untie her A chase would be nice for a few
{Polly said} Polly says her back hurts And she's just as bored as me She caught me off my guard It amazes me, the will of instinct
8. On A Plain
I'll start this off Without any words I got so high that I scratched 'til I bled
Love myself Better than you I know it's wrong So what should I do?
The finest day That I ever had Was when I learned To cry on command
Love myself Better than you I know it's wrong So what should I do?
I'm on a plain I can't complain I'm on a plain
My mother died Every night It's safe to say Don't quote me on that
Love myself Better than you I know it's wrong So what should I do?
The black sheep got Blackmailed again Forgot to put On the zip code
Love myself Better than you I know it's wrong So what should I do?
I'm on a plain I can't complain I'm on a plain
Somewhere I have heard this before In a dream my memory has stored As defense I'm neutered and spayed What the hell am I trying to say?
It is now time To make it unclear To write off lines That don't make a sense
Love myself Better than you I know it's wrong So what should I do?
One more special Message to go And then I'm done And I can go home
Love myself Better than you I know it's wrong So what should I do?
I'm on a plain I can't complain
9. Something In The Way
Underneath the bridge The tarp has sprung a leak And the animals I've trapped Have all become my pets And I'm living off of grass And the drippings from the ceiling But it's ok to eat fish Cause they haven't any feelings
Something in the way Ummmmm Something in the way, yea Ummmmm

10. Plateau
many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau some belong to strangers and some to folks you know holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand to beautify the foothills and shake the many hands
there's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop and an illustrated book about birds you see a lot up there but don't be scared who needs action when you got words
when you're finished with the mop then you can stop and look at what you've done the plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen and the work it took was fun
well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau some said it was in greenland and some in mexico some decided it was nowhere except for where they stood but they were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could
11. Oh Me
if i had to lose a mile if i had to touch feelings i would lose my soul the way i do
i don't have to think i only have to do it the results are always perfect and that's old news
would you like to hear my voice sweetened with emotion invented at your birth?
i can't see the end of me my whole expanse i cannot see i formulate infinity and store it deep inside of me
12. Lake Of Fire
where do bad folks go when they die? they don't go to heaven where the angels fly they go down to the lake of fire and fry won't see 'em again till the fourth of july
i knew a lady who came from duluth she got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth she went to her grave just a little too soon and she flew away howling on the yellow moon
where do bad folks go when they die? they don't go to heaven where the angels fly they do down to the lake of fire and fry won't see 'em again till the fourth of july
now the people cry and the people moan and they look for a dry place to call their home and try to find some place to rest their bones while the angels and the devils fight to claim them for their own
13. All Apologies
What else should I be All apologies What else should I say Everyone is gay What else could I write I don't have the right What else should I be All apologies
In the sun In the sun I feed as one In the sun In the sun I'm married buried I wish I was like you Easily amused Find my nest of salt Everything is my fault I'll take all the blame Aqua seafoam shame Sunburn with freezeburn Choking on the ashes of her enemy
All in all is all we all are
14. Where Did You Sleep Last Night?
My girl, my girl, don't lie to me Tell me where did you sleep last night In the pines, in the pines Where the sun don't ever shine I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, where will you go I'm going where the cold wind blows In the pines, in the pines Where the sun don't ever shine I would shiver the whole night through
Her husband, was a hard working man Just about a mile from here His head was found in a driving wheel But his body never was found
