It's the big show tongue tip tied to the roof of my mouth bad naughty little
angels come rushin' out.
I don't know but I been told you never die and you never grow old.
I guess you guessed that I"d catch hell. I just caught a cold but now I'm
feelin well.
It's the big show it's big show
Looked like we were photographed at gun point so I had to laugh.
Ha ha.

I want to live in the city with no friends or family

Im gonna look out the window of my color tv

I will remember to remember to forget you

Forgot me, Im gonna look out the window of my color tv

As long as your gone,
I can't apologize
For all the things that I haven't said and done
And 100 miles is a long drive inside a car
200 miles is a long drive inside a car
300 miles is a long drive inside a car
400 miles is a long drive inside a car
500 miles is a REAL LONG DRIVE IN A CAR

How do, how do you do?
My name is you
Flies, they all gather around me and you too
You can't see anything well
You ask me what size it is, not what I sell
(Ha ha ha ha)
The flies, they all gather around me and you too
Well, I don't want you to be alone down there

A nice heart and a white suit and a baby blue
sedan And I am doing the best that I can All the
eunuchs, they were standing in rows singing,
"Please stud us out just as fast as you possibly
can." Sad song, last dance and no one knows who
the band was And Henry, you danced like a wooden
Indian Except this one mattered and I felt it had
a spirit And I shot the story because I didn't

well all the apostles
they're sitting in swings
and I'd sell off my savior
for a set of new rings
and some sandles
with the style of straps that cling best to the era

so all of the businessers

"Wow!" said the broken Californian down
On the beach that used to be by the beach
Town hasn't moved but's getting closer, losing ground
Making better views and close relaxing sounds
Ground sure don't like the way it's treated so now
It's moving back to the sea
Plan to hitch a ride with the river
Because deep down plumbing life is too cramped for me

Blame it on the Tetons. Yeah, I need a scapegoat now.
No my dog won't bite you, though it had the right to.
You oughta give her credit cuz she knows I would've let it happen.

Blame it on the weekends. God I need a cola now.
Oh we mumble loudly, wear our shame so proudly.
Wore our blank expressions, trying to look interesting.
Blame it all on me cuz God I need a cold one now.

An Invisible Prison Encircles My Mind.
I Wait For a Vision,I Search For A Sign.
An Invisible Prison Is Built Around Me,
There May Be A God,But There Isn't A Key.

I Got To Break-Out,I Have To Be Free.
I Got To Break-Out,It's Stifling Me.
Help Me!

Broke account so I broke a sweat
I’ve bought some things that I sort of regret about now
Broke your glasses, but it broke the ice
You said that I was an asshole and I paid the price
Broken hearts want broken necks
I’ve done some things that I want to forget but I can’t
Broke my pace and ran out of time
Sometimes I’m so full of shit that it should be a crime

Этим утром я проснулся, и мне показалось,
Что каждую ночь я всё больше
Становлюсь похожим на Буковски.
Да, я знаю, его довольно приятно читать,
Но, боже, кто захочет быть
Боже, кто захочет быть таким говнюком?
Боже, кто захочет быть
Боже, кто захочет быть таким говнюком?

We were shootin' at a mound of dirt.
Well nothing was broken, nothing was hurt.
But I probably really should have been at work.
But if my freetime's gone, would you promise me this?

That you will please bury me with it?
Please bury me with it!

Soon the chain reaction started in the parking lot
Waiting to bleed on the big streets
That bleed out on the highways and
Off to others cities built to store and
Sell these (plastic) rocks
Well aren't you feeling real dirty
Sitting in the parking lot (x2)
Waiting to bleed on the big streets

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean
He's gonna start a war
He hops in his pickup puts the pedal to the floor
And says "I got mine but I want more"
Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean
He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky

The custom concern for the people
Build up the monuments and steeples to wear out our eyes
I get up just about noon
My head sends a message for me to reach for my shoes
And then walk
Got to go to work
Got to go to work
Got to have a job

I'm gonna dance all Dace Hall everyday.
I'm gonna dance all Dance Hall every day.
I'm gonna dance all Dance Hall every day.
Well I'm giving myself another one, I have too much to say.

Dance all Dance Hall every day.
I'm gonna dance all Dance Hall every day.
I'm gonna dance all Dance Hall every day.

Well, it would've been, could've been worse than you would ever know.
Oh, the dashboard melted, but we still have the radio.

Oh, it should've been, could've been worse than you would ever know.
Well, you told me about nowhere well it sounds like someplace I'd like to go.

Oh, it could've been, should've been worse than you would ever know.
Well, the windshield was broken but I love the fresh air y'know.

I'm down on the water
(I'm down on the water)
I don't know so I don't bother.
(I don't know so I don't bother)
Looking out the window of my dad's old Chevy.
(Lookin' out the window of my dad's old Chevy.)
Eats a lot of gas cause it's that more heavy.
(Eats a lot of gas cause it's that more heavy.)

I was in heaven
I was in hell
Believe in neither
But fear them as well
This one's a doctor
This one's a lawyer
This one's a cash fiend
taking your money

Travelling swallowing dramamine
Feeling spaced breathing out listerine
I’d said what I’d said that I’d tell ya
And that you’d killed the better part of me
If you could just milk it for everything
I’ve said what I’d said and you know what I mean
But I still can’t focus on anything
We kiss on the mouth but still cough down our sleeves

So you wonder how
Get them up, put them up
Get your dukes up now
Got no time, no money, that's why
Get them up, put them up
Get your dukes up now

Soda fountain crowd

[Verse 1]
Sometimes all I really want to feel is love
Sometimes I'm angry that I feel so angry
Sometimes my feelings get in the way
Of what I really feel I needed to say
If you stand in a circle
Then you'll all have a back to bite
Backlogged voices on the seven wonders

So you spilled every last penny into your car
And it still won't take you where you want to go
So you spilled every last penny into your car
And it still won't take you where you very far at all
So you spilled every last penny into your car
And it still won't even barely leave your home
So you spilled every last penny into your car
And it still won't take you where you need to go

Does not Exist, Take an Exit
I hear voices insinuating
Feeds me lyrics to this song that I am saying
Sunlight 7:20 PM, early September
Standing looking at a photograph
That you do not remember being taken
You look out of breath, and me like I am faking

Etceteranough? [x8]

Fire it up, fire it up
When we finally turn it over
Make a B-line towards the border
Have a drink, you've had enough

Fire it up, fire it up

I backed my car into a cop car, the other day
Well he just drove off, sometimes life's ok
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say
Well you just laughed it off, it was all ok

And we'll all float on, okey
And we'll all float on, okey
And we'll all float on, okey

Of part and parcel,
So well we're already dead,
Well it's probably been said,
That it's always been said,
That,

One wing isn't even enough,
It isn't even enough,

Oh gotta see, gotta know right now
What's that riding on your everything?
It isn't anything at all
Oh gotta see, gotta know right now
What's that riding on your shelf?
In the bathrooms, and the bad motels?
No one really cared for it at all
Not the gravity plant

you're standing by the grey ice water
out in the wind above ground out in the weather
you had yourself a crazy lover
becoming frozen trying hard to forget her
you got a job up in alaska
it's easy to save what the cannery pays
cause there ain't no way to spend it
at home on a boat, it's a fish trap

A surf rock man from the land of plenty
Surf rock mess with no surf but pine trees
Struck by being ashamed of your old space
Just wanting that mean heat
You bleached your hair
And you pawned your skis
And then you sold out for the
Shade of the palm tree scene

Slow walk
It's land mine
It's coal mine
It's a bad thought
On the way to god don't know
My brain's the burger and my heart's the coal
I'm trying to get my head clear
I push things out through my mouth

Well, I ain't sure, but I been told
He's baking cakes inside our souls
Stayed awake, took a nap
Got myself my bottles back
I'm breaking them out on the street
Walking around in my bare feet
I do not need you to tell me that I am not a cat
I caught a ride, we caught some air

Spent 18 hours waiting stoned for space
I spent the same 18 hours in the same damn place
I'm on a road shaped like a figure 8
I'm going nowhere, but I'm guaranteed to be late
You go out like a riptide
You know that ball has no sides
You're an angel with an amber halo
Black hair and the devil's pitchfork

[Chorus]
Uh oh, uh oh, down low
Uh oh, uh oh, down low
Uh oh, uh oh, down low

[Verse 1]
I am not who I want to be
I probably will not ever be

Well!
Well!
Well!
Well!

We spun like birds on fire
Right down towards the residence, and I
I took all that I desired

Mmm buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh-duh-dah
Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh-duh-dah

We’re all goin’, we’re all goin’

Well, the lampshade’s on fire when the lights go out
The room lit up and we ran about
Well, this is what I really call a party now

In this life like weeds you're just a rock to me
You're just a rock to me you're just a rock to me
And in this life like weeds you're just a rock to me
And in this life like weeds and in this life like weeds

I could have told you all that I love you
And in the places you go you'll see the place where you're from
I could have told you all that I love you

I hope that you like it in your little motel
And I hope that the suite sleeps and suits you well
Well I can see it as time and a sight through smell and
Thats why its nice to be by yourself

Cause thats what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for, aren't I?

Everyone's afraid of their own life
If you could be anything you want
I bet you'd be disappointed, am I right?
No one really knows the ones they love
If you knew everything they thought
I bet that you'd wish that they'd just shut up
Well, you were the dull sound of sharp math
When you were alive

Hang it up now or never
Hang it up again
(Hang it up now or never)
Hang it up now or never
Hang it up again
Hang it up now or never
Hang it up again
Doesn't seem like anything you're saying or doing or doing

He don't remember how it got there, he had a number written on his forearm
It spelled "disaster"

He entered the club scene, all hoping, all hoping for dancing
He was looking, a-looking, so stunning, his clothes reflecting light, all right she
She sat, she sat in the backseat, the car was plush but had no heat
And no, not no one was blushing, their technique was so damn right, all right and
He read the note in the black light, he thought he read minds and was not right

If food needed pleasing you'd suck all the seasoning off,

Suck it off!

Well treat me like the disease like the rats and the fleas,

A-ha-ha!

this is the part of me that needs medication
this is the part of me that believes in heaven
....thinks outer space is all dead
....wishes it was with it
....'s trying to be funny
....loves my parents
...thinks that ants are cavemen
....thinks all humans are ants

While we're on the subject
Could we change the subject now?
I was knocking on your ears
Don't worry, you were always out
Looking towards the future
We were begging for the past
Well we knew we had the good things
But those never seemed to last

Stay gone for a while
Stay gone for a while
Stay gone, eyes twitch and thin smile
Stay gone for a while

It takes a needle point and smile
Stay gone for a while
Stay gone twice, twitch and thin smile

I'm the same as I was when I was 6 years old
And oh my God I feel so damn old
I don't really feel anything
On a plane, I can see the tiny lights below
And oh my God, they look so alone
Do they really feel anything?
Oh my God, I've gotta gotta gotta gotta move on
Where do you move when what you're moving from

When I can work out how it was
Then I'll tell you
TV stained my memories, yeah
I don' think that she's...
Remember through sounds
Remember through smells
Remember through colors
Remember through towns

Your body may be gone, I'm gonna carry you in.
In my head, in my heart, in my soul.
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both live again.
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Don't think so.

Well that is that and this is this.
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get.
You get away from me. You get away from me.

Took a bus straight to baltimore
On the way he took a nap
Dropped off a note that said "im giving this note back"
Ps- theres a lot going on underneath
Theres roots theres pipes, theres drainage leaks
Youre on, youre wrong, ohio
Truly sorry, I see clearly
Calmly crashing, I pace faster than anyone

One chance to get everything right.
We have one chance, one chance.
And if we're lucky we might.
My friends, my habits, my family, they mean so much to me.
I just don't think that it's right.
I've seen so many ships sail in,
just to head back out again and go off sinkin'.

This is how it seems to be:

Other people’s lives seem more interesting, cuz they ain’t mine
Other people’s lives seem more interesting, cuz they ain’t mine
Other people’s lives seem more interesting, cuz they ain’t mine
Other people’s lives seem much more interesting

Well I’m fed up and I need to go out of existence

These walls are paper thin and everyone hears every little sound

Everyones a voyeurist, theyre watching me watch them watch me right now

Theyre shaking hands, theyre shaking in their shoes, oh lord dont shake me down

Everyone wants to move them and half of everyone else moves around

Parting Of The Sensory

There's no work in walking in to fuel the talk
I would grab my shoes and then away I'd walk
Through all the stubborn beauty I start at the dawn
Until the sun had fully stopped
Never walking away from
Just a way to pull apart

To answer the question
It'll probably take more
If you're already there
Well, you probably don't know
Well, we were the people
That we wanted to know
And we're the places that we wanted to go

You've got the Perfect disguise and you're lookin' o.k.
From the bottom of the best of the worst, well what can I say
Cuz you cocked your head to shoot me down, down
And I don't give a damn about you or this town no more
No cuz I know the score
Need me to fall down, so you can climb up
Some fool ass ladder, well good luck
I hope, I hope there's something better up there

Polar opposites don't push away
It's the same on the weekends
as the rest of the days
And I know I should go
but I'll probably stay
and that's all you can do
about some things
I'm trying to drink away

You were laying on the carpet
like you're satin in a coffin.
You said, "Do you believe what you're sayin'?"
Yeah right now, but not that often.

Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?

I fell in love and
I needed a roadmap
To find out where you lived
So excited now
Sleepwalking, cuz I'm sleepwalking
The white trash boys
Listen to the headphones
Blasting white noise

Out of breath and out of cash, find yourself watching M.A.S.H., every night
on the couch. Woman says let's take a drive down south, roll down the
windows and open our mouths taste where we are and play the music loud. Stop
the car, lay on the grass, the planets spin and we watch space pass.Walk a
direction, see where we get. I never knew nothin' so there's nothin' to
forget. Get real drunk and ride our bikes. There's so much beauty it could
make you cry. The rich get money but never what they want. Find ourselves a
new place to haunt. Climb up the fire escape do it 'til the ground looks far

Won herself a pass to some far off moon
It was second class but what's to lose
And looking out her window she could more than assume
That you can't see air or time
She's the only rocketeer in the whole damn place
They gave her a mirror so she could talk to a face
She still got plenty lonely but that's just the case
With time, time, time

We were spitting venom at most everyone we know
If the damned gave us a road map then we'd know just were to go
Now let it drop

Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off

I was born in the factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?

You cheered are split in half
A mechanical sacrificial calf for you
Oh, all for you

it was on the rotating eyes
it was all on the same postcard
it was all on the same damn shirt
said to sleep in the same Sear's camp house
it was all in the great state parks
it was all on the same Greyhound
it was all so many miles
beneath the dirty brown dirt

Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Looking kind of anxious in your cross armed stance
Like a bad tempered prom queen at a homecoming dance
And I claim I'm not excited with my life any more
So I blame this town, this job, these friends
The truth is it's myself
And I'm trying to understand myself
and pinpoint where i am

From the top of the ocean - Yeah
From the bottom of the sky -Goddamn
Well I get claustrophobic
I can you know that I can
And he said:
"I am not allowed much danger
keep in line you're an old friend stranger.
you'll burn me if effigy and I'll burn you in effigy."

That'll be the day, when I die
That'll be the day, when you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave me, you know it's a lie

Well, you give me all your loving and your turtle-dovin'
All your hugs and kisses and your money too,
All you know you love me baby, until you tell me maybe
That someday well, I'll be through

So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this bone bleached part of the world
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this salt soaked part of the world
I stepped down as president of Antarctica
Can't blame me, don't blame me, don抰
So long to this sad, sad part of the world

Take a drive in the wrong hand lane
Got bad breath talking bout fresh rain
My hand my hand gonna shake the same
Are you gonna be your own goddamn best friend
Well we taught the fruit how to eat itself
It was hanging out alone all on the shelf
How do I land
Cause I don't understand

The good time...

The good times are killing me.

The good times are killing me.

Here we go!

Open up a window
All the air, all the air is falling out
Eyes vacuum up light
Sound gets trapped by the mouth
What to do with the remainder
When the dents, the dents get hammered out
Then we'll travel through time

Your body may be gone, I'm gonna carry you in.
In my head, in my heart, in my soul.
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both live again.
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Don't think so.

Well that is that and this is this.
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get.
You get away from me. You get away from me.

In the last second of life, they're gonna show you how
How they run this show, sure, run it into the ground
The stars are projectors, yeah
Projectin' our lives down to this planet Earth
The stars are projectors, yeah
Projectin' our minds down to this planet Earth
Everyone wants a double feature
They wanna be their own damn teacher, and how

Your gun went off.
Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you.
My mouth runs on too.

Shouts from both sides,
"Well we've got the land but they've got the view!"
Well now here's the clue.

Ice-age heat wave, can't complain.
If the world's at large, why should I remain?
Walked away to another plan.
Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand.
I move on to another day,
to a whole new town with a whole new way.
Went to the porch to have a thought.
Got to the door and again, I couldn't stop.

All those people that you know. All those people that you know. All those people that you know, floatin' in the river are logs.
I could buy myself a reason. I could sell myself a job. I could hang myself on treason. All the folks I know are gone.
All the people that you know. All the people that you know. All the people that you know, floatin' in the river are logs.

So I ate the wedding cake 'til the whole damn thing was gone. And I'm gonna drown the ocean. Now ain't none o' that so wrong?
All the people that you know. All those people that you know. All those people that you know, floatin' in the river are gone.

Gonna take this sack of puppies. Gonna set it out to freeze. Gonna climb around on all fours 'til all the blood falls out my knees.

We're goin' down the road towards tiny cities made of ashes
Gonna hit you on the face gonna punch you in your
glasses. Oh no!
I just got a message that said "Yeah hell is freezin' over"
I Got a phone call from the Lord sayin' "Hey boy get a
sweater. Right now"
So we're drinkin' drinkin' drinkin' drinkin' coca-coca-cola
I can feel it rollin' right on down

Eating snow flakes with plastic forks
And a paper plate of course, you think of everything
Short love with a long divorce
And a couple of kids of course
They don't mean anything
Live in trailers with no class
goddamn I hope I can pass high school means nothing
Taking heartache with hard work

I guess I am a scout
So I should find a way out
So everyone can find a way out

They keep us in
To pull us out
I'm rising up
Wish I was sinking down

We've got everything
We've got everything
We've got everything...down to a science so...
I guess we know everything...
We know everything
We know everything
We know everything...was built to expire so...
I guess we've done everything...

Rag weed tall better hope that his ladder dont crack
Or hell hit the ground low, hard and under his back
At the battle at the bottom of the ocean, where the dead
do rise
You need proof I got proof at the surface you can watch
em float by
Way in back of the room, there sits a cage
Inside its a clock that you can win if you can guess its age

You and me, whenever we go wrong
Wake up early and you'll live to regret
(Nothing is clear)
And you'll tell it to the telephone
(Tell the truth)
Look whenever you're talking all alone
(Whenever you see fit)
And everything you ever said

You went out for a walk
I'm sure you went a long ways
Sorting things out in our heads
We'll forget in a few days

In the place before you're made
They give you all these options
Like if you've got wings

A wild pack of family dogs came runnin through the yard one day
My father got his gun, shot it up they ran away ok
A wild pack of family dogs came runnin through the yard
And as my own dog ran away with them I didnt say much of anything at all
A wild pack of family dogs came runnin through the yard
As my little sister played the dogs took her away
And I guess she was eaten up ok yeah
My mothers cryin' blood dust now

Everywhere everywhere everywhere

It's all so plain it's all a plan

The sky doesn't ever end

The air just gets much thinner further up

In the faces you see
You'll see, you'll see
You'll see the place where you die
You'll see where you want to be

Every place you go
You'll see the faces of the people you know
You'll see, you'll see

Everyone's afraid of their own life.
If you could be anything you want to be you'd be disappointed.
am I right?
No one really knows the ones they love.
If you knew everything they thought I bet that you'd wish that they'd just shut up.
Well you were the dull sound of sharp math when you were alive.
Not ones gonna play the harp when you die.
And if I had a nickel for every damn dime I'd have half the time.
