Earthly Autumn
03:46
|

|
hey mama did you wanna buy something online
or maybe fly far away and post it online
or maybe kill some rare creature
and have a slave to cook it up and take a picture
show your followers what envy means
i think the world begins to end now
the empire will not give a refund
we've got the noose around our neck now
the end of all the earthly autumns
hey sonny did you wanna shoot somebody at the mall
or maybe drive a car so fast while drinking alcohol
or maybe play some silly game
one thousand hours for the fame that never comes
and drives you further into adderall
hey papa did you wanna grill something blood red
or maybe brag to your friends about some good head
or maybe ride your motorcycle
to the bank and dump your money in some stocks
to show your followers what envy means

Dead Around II

IF I'M DEAD THEN I WON'T BE AROUND ANYMORE
WITH THISTLE WOVEN CROWN
I HEAR THERE'S FIELDS OF LAVENDER
WHERE YOU CAN JUST LIE DOWN
AND THE FARMER SAYS
GO AWAY, EN Y VAS, GO AWAY
I LOVE YOU, JE T'AIME
I LOVE YOU, JE T'AIME
IF I'M GONE THEN I WON'T BE ALONE ANYMORE
A WHISPER IN THE AIR
DELIVER ME TO FIELDS OF LAVENDER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
AND THE FARMER SAYS
GO AWAY, EN Y VAS, GO AWAY
I LOVE YOU, JE T'AIME
I LOVE YOU, JE T'AIME
AND THE FARMER SAYS
GO AWAY, EN Y VAS, GO AWAY
I LOVE YOU, JE T'AIME
I LOVE YOU, JE T'AIME

Bad Pizza
03:49
|
|||
|
i've only got myself to blame
for words that were unsaid
i've simply stolen yesterday
and taken it out of your head
ooh you don't need me anymore
ooh i've got to work the dough
ooh this pizza isn't ready yet
ooh i think it's just a mess
i apologized for everything i've ever done
i left the earth and vanished in the distant setting sun
but vacillating tendencies to wish and not regret
left my spirit wandering in and out your closet

River
04:30
|
|||
|
my friends have left
my son has died
the way to town
divided by the river
cut me a river
out of my veins
the world is same
as i'm seeing it
places they all
remain the same
it's the history that changes
got me a bingo
a hole in one
cut down a tree
with my neighbors gun
government boat
nation of corn
chum in the water
sharks on a loan
my hands are numb
you left my side
the open road
divided by the river
late summer heat
hangs like a moon
dog on the street
crying for candy
voluminous beef
freezer in triage
suburban aesthete
sculpting forsythia

Germantown Retirement
03:44
|
|||
|
i retired into my bottle
i retired into my frown
i retired in germantown
eat sandwich from otto's
pick up liquor from lawlors
wake up to quiet countryside
i retired into my mazda
i retired into my couch
i retired into my closet
i retired upside down
i retired in germantown
ice cream from stewart's
walk the trail of stockport
sleep by the river side

Thinspo
04:10
|
|||
|
i could be your fortune teller at the grocery store
i could guess your weight and all the calories you burn
i've got to be honest
arcing purple power lines buzzing on the trees
i'm compelled to exercise nearly constantly
i've got to be honest
the thinspo you posted broke me
broke the dam of misery
refrigerator demon always trying to make me slip
bingeing in the evening like a slowly sinking ship
i've got to be honest
sorely genuflecting at the temple of the scale
a reading that is zero; i have reached the holy grail
i've got to be honest
the thinspo you posted broke me
broke the dam of misery
i control my mind, my body, my time

Ocean Gate
03:52
|

|
My way was paved
along the ocean gate
all of the ways
to be a loser
my life is over
insurance policy
our was paved
along the ocean gate
all of the ways
to be a loser
my life is over
insurance policy
the contract we signed
dropped to the bottom of the sea

The Lady and the Fox
03:20
|
|||
|
out every night in the snow
searching for someone to love
i've never been lucky before
hunting for a little rabbit
the story of how we met
on christmas eve of 2023
hide away run away
hide away run away
laid awake for hours
waiting for the wind
to give me your scent
welcome to my little den
dug it in this glen
with my claws by the book
everything that we need within reach
i know i've been distant again
hide away run away
hide away run away

My Waters
04:13
|
|||
|
can i take you both to my waters
can i show you what my waters mean
if i help you turn on my faucet
my waters busting at the seams
dont touch my waters at the office
my waters leaking in your dreams
my waters sick and you have caught it
my waters separate from cream
everybody
has gotta use they waters up
every body
has gotta use they waters up
thank you bill
gotta use my waters up
it's so real
gotta use my waters up
can i take you down to my waters
my waters washing on the floor
the sticky water's leaking on me
my waters rushing out the door
my waters on my mind
my waters on the line
my waters in the mix
my waters getting fixed
everybody
has gotta use they waters up
every body
has gotta use they waters up
thank you bill
gotta use my waters up
it's so real
gotta use my waters up

The World
03:17
|
|||
|
Eyes closed walking down the grassy hill
sunlight guiding me by warmth to you
i want you to meet me in the world
yeah
smell like cut grass and spring softball field
screams and laughter shoulders shimmying
i do want to be part of the world
yeah
if you were not careful
they could fool you into
thinking it's the world
