"Space Dog"
Way to go Mr. Microphone
show us all what you dont know
centuries secret societies
he's our commander still space dog

so sure we were on something
your feet are finally on the ground he said
so sure we were on something
your feet are just on the ground girl

rain and snow our engines have been recieving your eager call
there's colonel dirtyfishydishcloth
he'll distract her good dont worry so

and to the one you thought was on your side
she can't understand she truly believes the lie

Lemon pie he's coming through
our commander still space dog
lines secure space dog

deck the halls i'm young again i'm you again
racing turtles the grapefruit is winning
seems i keep getting the storey
mixed up so where's neil when you need him
deck the halls its you again its you again
somewhere someone must know the ending
is she still pissing in the river now?
heard she'd gone moved into a trailor park

so sure those girls are now in the navy
those bombs our friends can't even hurt you now
hold onto those tears cause they're still on your side
dont hear the dogs barking
dont say you know we've gone to Andromeda
stood with those girls before the hair in pairs
it just got nasty and now these girls are gone
 
 "cloud on my tongue"
Someones knocking on my kitchen door
leave the wood outside
what all the girls here are freezing cold
leave me with your borneo
i dont need much to keep me warm

dont stop now, what your doing
what your doing my ugly one
bring them all here
hard to hide a hundred girls in my hair
it wont be fair if i hate her
if i ate her
you can go now, you can go now
you can go now

your already in there
you'll be wearing your tatoo
your already there!

got a cloud sleeping on my tongue
he goes then it goes
and kiss the violets as their waking up

leave me with your borneo
leave me the way i was before

you're already in there
i'll be wearing your tatoo
i'm already in circles and circles and circles
again the girls in circles and circles
go to stop spinning
circles and circles and circles again
i thought i was over the bridge now
 
"the waitress"

So i want to kill waitress
she's worked here a year longer then I
if i did it fast you know
thats an act of kindness

But i believe in peace
i believe in peace
Bitch i believe in peace

I want to kill this waitress
i can't believe this violence in mind
and is her power all here
in a club sandwich

I want to kill this killing wish
they're too many stars and
not enough sky
Boys all think she's living kindness
ask a fellow waitress
ask a fellow waitress
 
"god"
God sometimes you just dont come through
God sometimes you just dont come through
do you need a woman to look after you?
God sometimes you just dont come through

You make pretty daisies
pretty daisies love
i gotta find what you're doing things
here a few witches burning
gets a little toasty here
i gotta find why you
always go when the wind blows
tell me your crazy maybe
then i'll understand
you got your 9 iron in the back seat
just in case
heard you've gone south well
babe you love your new 4 wheel
i gotta find why you always
go when the wind blows

Well you even tell her
if you decide to make the sky fall
will you even tell her
if you decide to make the sky
 
"past the mission"
I dont believe i went too far
i was willing she said
she knew what my books did
not i thought she knew what's up

Past the mission
behind the prison tower
past the mission
i once knew the hot girl
past the mission
they're closing every hour
past the mission
i smell the roses

She said they all think
they knew him well
she knew him better
everyone wanted something from him
i did too but i shut my mouth
he just gave me a smile

Hey they found a body
not sure it was his yet
they're still using his name
and she gave him shelter
and somewher i know
she knows something
only he knows
 

"bells for her"
and through the life force and there goes her friend
on her nishiki it's out of time
and through the portal they can make amends

hey would you say whatever
we're blanket friends can't stop
whats coming can't stop
what is on it's way

and through the walls they made their mudpies
i've got your mind i said
i've got your voice she said
i said you dont need my voice
girl you've have your own
but you never thought it was enough
of so they went years and years
like sisters blanket girls always
there through that and this
there's nothing we cannot ever fix i said

can't stop whats coming
can't stop whats on its way
Bells and footballs and soldiers and dolls
brothers and lovers she and i were
now she seems to be sand under his shoes
theres nothing i can do
can't stop whats coming
can't stop whats on its way

and now i speak to you are you in there
you have her face and her eyes
but you are not her
and we go at each other like blank ettes
who can't find their thread and their bare

can't stop loving
can't stop whats on its way
and i see it coming
and i see its on its way
 

"pretty good year"
Tears on the sleave of the man
don't wanna be a boy today
heard the eternal footman bought himself a bike to race
and Greg he writes letters and burns his c.d.'s
they say you were something in those formative years
hold onto nothing as fast as you can
well still pretty good year

maybe a bright sandy beach is gonna bring you back
maybe not so now you're all off
you're gonna see America
well let me tell you something about America
pretty good year
some things are melting now
well whats it gonna take till my ababy's alright

and Greg he writes letters with his brithday pen
sometimes he's aware that they're drawing in them
Lucy was pretty your best friend agreed
well still pretty good year
 

"baker baker"
Baker Baker baking a cake
make me a day make me whole again
and i wonder whats in a day
whats in your cake this time

i guess you've heard he's gone to LA
he said that behind my eyes are hiding
and he tells me i pushed him away
that my hearts been hard to find

here there must be something
here there must be something here here

Baker Baker can you explain
if truly his heart is made of icing
and i wonder how mine could taste
maybe we could change his mind

i know you're late for your next parade
you came to make sure i'm not running well
i ran from him in all kinds of ways
guess it was his turn this time

time thought i'd made friends with time
thought we'd be flying maybe not this time

Baker Baker baking a cake
make me a day make me whole again
and i wonder if he's ok
if you see him say hi
 

"cornflake girl"
Never was a cornflake girl
thought it was good solution hangin' with the raisin girls
shes gone to the other side
given us the yo heave ho
things are gettin kinda gross and i go all sleepy time
this is not really happening
you bet your life it is

Peel out the watchword just peel out watchword

She knows whats goin on
seems we got a cheaper feel
now all the sweeteaze are gone
gone to the other side with my encyclopedia
must paid her her a nice price
shes puttin on the string bean love
this is not really happening
you bet your life it is

Rabbit where'd you put the keys girl
and the man with the golden gun
thinks he knows so much thinks he knows so much
So Rabbit where'd you put the keys girl
 
"icicle"
icicle icicle where are you going?
i have a hiding place when spring marches in
will you keep watch for me i hear them calling
gonna lay down gonna lay down

greetings the monster in our easter dresses
father says bow your heads like the good book says
i think the good books is missing some pages
gonna lay down gonna lay down

and when my hand touches myself i can finally rest my head
and when they say 'take of his body'
i think i'll take from mine instead

Getting off getting off while they're all downstairs
singing prayers sing away
he's in my pumpkin p.j.'s
lay your book on my chest
feel the word feel the word feel the word feel it

i could have i should have i could have flown over
i could have i should have i didn't
 

"yes, anastasia"
i know what you want the magpies have come
if you know me so well tell me which hand i use

Make them go make it go

Saw her there in a restaurant
Poppy dont go i know your mother is a good one
but Poppy dont go i'll take you home
show me things i've been missin
show me the ways i forgot to be speaking
show me the ways to get back to the garden
show me the ways to get around the get around
show me the ways to button up the button's
that have forgotten they're buttons
well we can't have that forgetting that

girls girls what have we done to ourselves yeah
driving on the vine over our clothes lines
but officer i saw the sign
thought i'd be driving through this in 1919
counting the tears of ten thousand men
and gathered them all but my feet
are slipping there's something we left
on the window theres soemthing we left yes

we'll see how brave you are we'll see how fast you'll be running
we'll see how brave you are yes, Anastasia
and all your dollies have friends

Thought she deserved no less then she'd give
well happy brithday her bloods on my hands
its kind of a shame cause i did like that dress
its funny the things that you find in the rain
the things that you find in the mall
in the date-mins in the knot still in her hair
on the bus i'm on my way down
all the girls seem to be there

Come along now little darlin' come along now with me
come along now little darlin'
we'll see how brave you are
