TRY
NOT TO BREATHE
I will try not to breathe.
I can hold my head still with my hands
at my knees.
These eyes are the eyes of the old,
shiver and fold.
I will try not to breathe.
This decision is mine. I have
lived a full life
and these are the eyes that I want
you to remember. Oh.
I need something to fly over my grave
again.
I need something to breathe.
I will try not to burden you.
I can hold these inside. I will
hold my breath
until all these shivers subside,
just look in my eyes.
I will try not to worry you.
I have seen things that you will never
see.
Leave it to memory me. I shudder
to breathe.
I want you to remember. Oh.
(you will never see)
I need something to fly
(something to fly)
over my grave again.
(you will never see)
I need something to breathe.
(something to breathe)
Baby, don't shiver now.
Why do you shiver now?
(I will see things you will never see)
I need something to fly
(something to fly)
over my grave again.
(I will see things you will never see)
I need something to breathe.
Oh. Oh. Oh.
I will try not to worry you.
I have seen things that you will never
see.
Leave it to memory me. Don't
dare me to breathe.
I want you to remember. Oh.
(you will never see)
I need something to fly
(something to fly)
over my grave again.
(you will never see)
I need something to breathe.
(something to breathe)
Baby, don't shiver now.
Why do you shiver now?
(I will see things you will never see)
I need something to breathe.
(something to breathe - I have seen things
you will never see)
I want you to remember.
THE
SIDEWINDER SLEEPS TONITE
This here is the place I will be staying.
There isn't a number. You can
call the pay phone.
Let it ring a long, long, long, long
time.
If I don't pick up, hang up, call back,
let it ring some more.
If I don't pick up, pick up... The
sidewinder sleeps, sleeps, sleeps in a coil
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
There are scratches all around the
coin slot
like a heartbeat, baby trying to wake
up,
but this machine can only swallow money.
You can't lay a patch by computer design.
It's just a lot of stupid, stupid signs.
Tell her,
tell her she can kiss my ass, then
laugh and say that you were only kidding.
That way she'll know that it's really,
really, really, really me.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Baby, instant soup doesn't really grab
me.
Today I need something more sub-sub-sub-substantial.
A can of beans or blackeyed peas, some
Nescafe and ice,
a candy bar, a falling star, or a reading
of Doctor Seuss;
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
The cat in the hat came back, wrecked
a lot of havoc on the way,
always had a smile and a reason to
pretend.
But their world has flat backgrounds
and little need to sleep but to dream.
The sidewinder sleeps on his back.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
I can always sleep standing up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
I can always sleep standing up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
Call me when you try to wake her up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
I can always sleep standing up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
I can always sleep standing up.
Call me when you try to wake her.
We've got to moogie, moogie, move on
this one.
EVERYBODY
HURTS
When the day is long and the night,
the night is yours alone,
when you're sure you've had enough
of this life, well hang on.
Don't let yourself go, everybody cries
and everybody hurts sometimes.
Sometimes everything is wrong.
Now it's time to sing along.
When your day is night alone,
(hold on, hold on)
if you feel like letting go,
(hold on)
when you think you've had too much
of this life, well hang on.
Everybody hurts. Take comfort
in your friends.
Everybody hurts. Don't throw
your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand.
If you feel like you're alone, no,
no, no, you are not alone
If you're on your own in this life,
the days and nights are long,
when you think you've had too much
of this life to hang on.
Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
everybody cries. And everybody
hurts sometimes.
And everybody hurts sometimes.
So, hold on, hold on.
Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold
on. Hold on, hold on. (repeat & fade)
(Everybody hurts. You are not
alone.)
SWEETNESS
FOLLOWS
Readying to bury your father and your
mother,
what did you think when you lost another?
I used to wonder why did you bother,
distanced from one, blind to the other?
Listen here my sister and my brother
what would you care if you lost the
other?
I always wonder why did we bother,
distanced from one, deaf to the other.
Oh, oh, but sweetness follows
It's these little things, they can
pull you under.
Live your life filled with joy and
wonder.
I always knew this altogether thunder
was lost in our little lives.
Oh, oh, but sweetness follows.
Oh, oh, but sweetness follows.
It's these little things, they can
pull you under.
Live your life filled with joy and
thunder.
Yeah, yeah we were altogether
lost in our little lives.
Oh. Oh. Ah.
Oh, oh, but sweetness follows.
Oh, oh, but sweetness follows.
MONTY
GOT A RAW DEAL
Monty this seems strange to me.
The movies had that movie thing,
but nonsense has a welcome ring
and heroes don't come easy.
Now, nonsense isn't new to me.
I know my head, I know my feet,
but mischief knocked me in the knees.
Said, Just let go. Just let go.
I saw the ocean meet the man.
I saw you buried in the sand.
A friend was there to hold your hand,
Said, Walk on by.
So, I went walking through the street.
I saw you strung up in a tree.
A woman knelt there said to me,
said, Hold your tongue, man.
Hold your tongue.
You don't owe me anything.
You don't want this sympathy.
[waste your breath]
Don't you waste your breath.
[waste your breath]
for the silver screen.
That nonsense doesn't mean a thing,
they tried to bust you in a sting,
but virtue isn't everything
so, don't waste time.
Now, here's a rhyme that you can steal.
Put this on your reel to reel.
Mischief threw a rotten deal.
Monty's laying low, man.
He is laying low.
Just let go, y'all.
Just let go.
You don't owe me anything.
You don't want this sympathy. [waste
your breath]
Don't you waste your breath. [waste
your breath]
Monty this seems strange to me.
IGNORELAND
These bastards stole their power from
the victims of the Us v. Them years,
wrecking all things virtuous and true.
The undermining social democratic downhill
slide into abysmal
lost lamb off the precipice into the
trickle down runoff pool.
They hypnotised the summer, Nineteen
seventy-nine.
Marched into the capital brooding duplicitous,
wicked and able, media-ready,
heartless, and labeled. Super
U.S. citizen, super achiever,
mega ultra power dosing. Relax.
Defense, defense, defense, defense.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignoreland.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignoreland.
The information nation took their clues
from all the sound-bite gluttons.
Nineteen eighty, eighty-four, eighty-eight,
ninety-two too, too.
How to be what you can be, jump jam
junking your energies.
How to walk in dignity with throw-up
on your shoes
They amplified the autumn, Nineteen
seventy-nine.
Calculate the capital, up the republic
my skinny ass.
T.V. tells a million lies. The
paper's terrified to report
anything that isn't handed on a presidential
spoon,
I'm just profoundly frustrated by all
this. So, fuck you, man. (fuck 'm)
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignoreland.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignoreland.
If they weren't there we would have
created them. Maybe, it's true,
but I'm resentful all the same.
Someone's got to take the blame.
I know that this is vitriol.
No solution, spleen-venting,
But I feel better having screamed.
Don't you?
They desecrated winter, Nineteen seventy-nine.
Capital collateral. Brooding
duplicitous, wicked and able, media-ready,
heartless, and labeled. Super
U.S. citizen, super achiever,
mega ultra power dosing. Relax.
Defense, defense, defense, defense.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignoreland.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignoreland.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ignoreland.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
STAR ME
KITTEN
Keys cut, three for the price of one.
Nothing's free but guaranteed for a
lifetime's use.
I've changed the locks
and you can't have one.
You, you know the other two.
The brakes have worn so thin that you
could hear,
I hear them screeching through the
door from our driveway.
Hey love, look into your glovebox heart.
What is there for me inside?
This love is tired.
I've changed the locks. Have
I misplaced you?
Have we lost our minds?
Will this never end?
It could depend on your take.
You. Me. We used to be
on fire.
If keys are all that stand between,
Can I throw in the ring?
No gasoline.
Just fuck me kitten.
You are wild and I'm in your possesion.
Nothing's free so, fuck me kitten.
I'm in your possesion.
So, fuck me kitten.

sleeve, then nothing is cool.
NIGHTSWIMMING
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
The photograph on the dashboard, taken
years ago,
turned around backwards so the windshield
shows.
Every streetlight reveals the picture
in reverse.
Still, it's so much clearer.
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.
The moon is low tonight.
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
I'm not sure all these people understand.
It's not like years ago,
The fear of getting caught,
of recklessness and water.
They cannot see me naked.
These things, they go away,
replaced by everyday.
Nightswimming, remembering that night.
September's coming soon.
I'm pining for the moon.
And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun?
That bright, tight forever drum
could not describe nightswimming.
You, I thought I knew you.
You I cannot judge.
You, I thought you knew me,
this one laughing quietly underneath
my breath.
Nightswimming.
The photograph reflects,
every streetlight a reminder.
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night,
deserves a quiet night.
FIND THE RIVER
Hey now, little speedyhead,
the read on the speedmeter says
you have to go to task in the city
where people drown and people serve.
Don't be shy. Your just deserve
is only just light years to go.
Me, my thoughts are flower strewn
ocean storm, bayberry moon.
I have got to leave to find my way.
Watch the road and memorize
this life that pass before my eyes.
Nothing is going my way.
The ocean is the river's goal,
a need to leave the water knows
We're closer now than light years to
go.
I have got to find the river,
bergamot and vetiver
run through my head and fall away.
Leave the road and memorize
this life that pass before my eyes.
Nothing is going my way.
There's no one left to take the lead,
but I tell you and you can see
we're closer now than light years to
go.
Pick up here and chase the ride.
The river empties to the tide.
Fall into the ocean.
The river to the ocean goes,
a fortune for the undertow.
None of this is going my way.
There is nothing left to throw
of Ginger, lemon, indigo,
coriander stem and rose of hay.
Strength and courage overrides
the privileged and weary eyes
of river poet search naivete.
Pick up here and chase the ride.
The river empties to the tide.
All of this is coming your way.
