Woke in my warm bed
Just in time for all the brilliant red lights
They were streaming through my half shuttered windows
Christmas lights in time with my stuttered brain waves
The door knob was glowing
All my photographs were rippled and melting
Through the walls I could hear panicked voices
They seemed to say, go back to bed there's no choices
And nowhere not burned out
The fireman calls out, we've got another smoking
Umbrella left in the hallway
And the fireman calls out, we've got another smoking
Umbrella left here
I gave no answer
To all their shouted questions, just lay back choking
Didn't want to stay but my bed was on fire
Instead of screaming, I fell back into dreamland
Blinking and sighing
The fireman calls out, we've got another smoking
Umbrella left in the hallway
And the fireman calls out, we've got another smoking
Umbrella left here
I don't wanna leave [Incomprehensible]
I never believed in what happened to [Incomprehensible]
The fireman calls out, we've got another smoking
Umbrella left in the hallway
And the fireman calls out, we've got another smoking
You made my head split open
and everyone watched
I twisted it off
and everyone gasped
I lost my sight
and everyone laughed
I replaced my head
and I couldn't see´
A hole is left in my head between my eyes
All dark and red
It wasn't a new eye
I was just dead
I was just dead
(Bring your food, please)?
(a nice juicy pie)?
You don't have to lift your eyes
Just look at the way I look at the sky
Look at me
Count my eyes
Blowing fire through
The hillside
Pelting wings stuck
To quicklime
Smashing nobody's
Headlights
Nothing tells us
We're alive
Bernie's got the way to
Feel good times
She lives on the way to
The park
All we've got to do is
Just drop by
We don't have to wait
Until dark
Screaming tires through
The sunshine
Told the cripple he
Looks blind
Caught the rats in
The manhole
Beat them all the way
A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride,
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean mean pride.
Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you
No his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide
Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day
I sprained my will lying in bed
Counting the pores across my skin
I'm so ashamed to love no one
My ego's bent and my pride's undone
I'll spend the night with my pillowhead girl
We never fight or say a word
I'll spend my life with my pillowhead girl
She is my lovely faceless queen
I gave up hope in finding you
I've got a friend I've grown used to
I'm so ashamed to love no one
My ego's bent and my pride's undone
I'll spend the night with my pillowhead girl
We never fight or say a word
I'll spend my life with my pillowhead girl
She is my lovely faceless queen
Leo woke up in his bed again
Startled by all his familiar friends
Burnt out stubs confectionery wrappers
Bottles spent and empty
Leo felt a terror in the world
He sighs it's not so bad
And goes about his day
As if nothings changed
He finds it so hard to explain
The way he can't communicate
The feeling's there but he can't say
Why it's so hard to relate to anyone
Leo quickened his step toward his car
He broke into a sprint at twenty yards
As he guessed the dogs had come
Ripping into his arm for fun
Leo got away in his blue car
He sighs it's not so bad
And goes about his day
As if nothing changed
He finds it so hard to explain
The way he can't communicate
The feeling's there but he can't say
Why it's so hard to relate to you or anyone
He finds it so hard to explain
The way he can't communicate
The feeling's there but he can't say
Why it's so hard to relate
He finds it so hard to explain
The way he can't communicate
The feeling's there but he can't say
found a dog downstairs
locked him with the bikes
cried till he went hoarse
scratched the door to shreds
did no one tell you how
she'd leave you in this town
with her dog trapped downstairs
He'll die with no one there
locked the dog back in
turned the heater on
smelled the sour milk
felt the floor above
did no one tell you how
she'd leave you in this town
with her dog trapped downstairs
he'll die with no one there
crawl cause you can't limp
howl cause you can't speak
leave cause you don't care
run let the dog die
found the note upstairs
torn up in the trash
said she'd flown to Spain
special one-time fare
left with some old friend
always just a friend
crawl cause you can't limp
howl cause you can't speak
leave cause you don't care
run let the dog die
did no one tell you how
she'd leave you in this town
with her dog trapped downstairs
He'll die with no one there
crawl cause you can't limp
howl cause you can't speak
leave cause you don't care
It's not about the boy
Found slain
It ain't about his lips
Blood drained
You should've seen his
Dreams dissolve
Into the dumpster behind
The mall
I'm goin' down to the
Wonderful life
I'm goin' down inside
A satellite
I'm goin' down on the
Bullet train
I'm goin' down on the perfect dream
It's not about the
Freeway drone
That score her tired
Journeys home
Softly licking her to sleep
Her eyes are closed to
The brake light streaks
Sleep in the softest bed
Eat everything you need
Never ask anyone
For anything at all
Why can't I stroke this
World to sleep
Please help me stroke
This world to sleep
It's not about his
Prescription brain
Deprived of pills that
Keep it sane
He told himself he could
Go it alone
See him plead with the
Unplugged phone
Sleep in the softest bed
Eat everything you need
Never ask anyone
For anything at all
That restless old monkey
Prisoned inside of me
Stiff bones that
Close him in
He waits trapped
Deep within
I'm goin' down to the
Wonderful life
I'm goin' down inside
A satellite
I'm goin' down on
The SST
I'm goin' down on the
Perfect dream
I'm goin' down to the
Wonderful life
I'm goin' down like a
Ripped up kite
I'm goin' down with
Broken ribs
I'm goin' down to a
What did they say
when they brought you down here?
Did nobody tell you
you can't get out?
I'm sure there are folks
who say you can but
you're sure to find out
there's no way out.
You've been spending all your change.
No point saving for rainy days.
I'm gonna be there
when you find the border
I'm gonna be there
when you can't wake up.
Just remember
I've got my orders
no searching for the answers now.
Who did you fool
to get yourself here?
We'll take any bribe,
we'll show you the sites.
I know that you felt
so sure you'd break free.
We'll say anything
you'll let us believe.
You've been calling all your friends,
no real reason, just checking in.
I'm gonna be there
when you find the border
I'm gonna be there
when you can't wake up.
Just remember
I've got my orders
no searching for the answers now.
We'll show you
your heaven
inside here
in silence.
No searching
for answers
it's pointless.
What did they say
when they brought you down here?
Did nobody tell you
you can't get out?
I'm sure there are folks
who say you can but
you're sure to find out
there's no way out.
I'm gonna be there
when you find the border
I'm gonna be there
when you can't wake up.
Just remember
I've got my orders
Someone said they'd like
To set you up
They're gonna feed on
You just sleep now
Should've know they'd
Try and make you cry
They're gonna have fun
Now don't fight it
Let me come undone in
Your house
I need to kill some
Time tonite
Let me come undone in
Your mouth
I need to know that your
The same
Could've guessed you
Were the only one
They wanted to laugh at
Believe them
No surprise you let it
Get to you
It was always there
Can't hide it
Your face is easy to hate
Looking helpless
And sincere
Curls up in self-sickness
Lick your wounds and
Dream of home
Let me come undone in
Your house
Let me come undone
And kill some time
Let me come undone in
Your mouth
Let me come undone
say hello to the rug's topography
it holds quite a lot of interest with your face down on
say hello to the shrinking in your head
you cant see it but you know its there, so don't neglect
i'm taking her home with me, all dressed in white
she's got everything i need; pharmacy keys
she's fallen hard for me; i can see it in her eyes
she acts just like a nurse with all the other guys
say hello to all the apples on the ground
they were once in your eyes but you sneezed them out
while sleeping
say hello to everything you've left behind
its even more a part of your life now that you can't
touch it
i'm taking her home with me, all dressed in white
she's got everything i need; some pills in a little cup
she's fallen hard for me; i can see it in her eyes
she acts just like a nurse with all the other guys
she's got everything i need; pharmacy keys
she acts just like a nurse with all the other guys
I love to hear you talk
And I love to watch your head move
I love to tune you in every night
And I love to watch you with ice cream
Chocolate chip, with a little whipped cream
I love to hear your opinion
And I love to share it with all of my friends
I love to feel so informed
I love to watch your little mouth
Because you're just too much
The way you smile
The way you dress
The way you stress
Sometimes I get to wondering what it is you're talking about
I love to hear your opinion
And I love to share it with all of my friends
I love to
I love to
I love to
But I don't want to
But you're just too much
The way you smile
The way you dress
The way you stress
Sometimes I get to wondering what it is you're talking about
You're just too much
I can't control myself
The way you stress certain items
These things stick out to me, too
all of my unmatched disciples
floating minions laying mines
said he didn't wanna find her
sharing this spot in the shrine
said the past was worth repeating
(bring your blankets for the coin/choir)
said he'd leave with just a greeting
sharing this spot in the (slime)
please don't let me see inside
please don't let me look inside
(cut a *) to release her
spread himself among the stars
said he wanted to believe it
had a temple anyway
please don't let me look inside
please don't let me see inside
please don't let me look inside
I'm never gonna say the words that you want
I'm never gonna feel the shame like you do
I'm never gonna stretch my shame to be with you
I only need you for a day
'Cause I only wanna be your Saturday savior
I can be that Saturday savior
I will be your Saturday savior
I can be that impostor in your plan
I'm never gonna make you feel that you're satisfied
I'm never gonna feel your pain like you wish I would
I'm never gonna open up more than this
I just wanna be your
I just wanna be your Saturday savior
I can be that Saturday savior
I will be your Saturday savior
I can be that impostor in your plan
Wake him up please
I'm never gonna break it down quite like you
I'm never gonna long for life the way you do
I'm never gonna push you out
'Cause you're not in, this'll only take a while
'Cause I only wanna be your Saturday savior
I can be that Saturday savior
I will be your Saturday savior
I can be that impostor in your bed
I was thinking that
You would stay (the/to)day
Something tells me that
You'll show up to say
Bye...good....bye
Salt wound
Too soon
(if I push you gone)
You'd just let it stand
Your brain (for spray) good one
Full of rocks and sand
Grasping both confused
I (couldn't love you) more
Always (talking me but did she know the sure)
Bye...good...bye
Breathe hard
(chips start) falling down
(head/high hopes) crawling down
Please
Bye..good..bye
Salt wound
Too soon
Falling down
Breathe hard
Crawling now
(chips fall splits too deep)
(head hopes)
Bye good bye
Down by the railroad tracks, I will enjoy you
Can't feel a single thing that won't fade away
We'll laugh like we always do when we hear the whistle
So high and satisfied, let's sleep for a spell
Pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
Down at the carpet shop, you want to cut me
The patterns are laughing out, I know it's not fair
Go ahead, roll me up in your detachment
I'm here to decorate your fear for awhile
Pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You want to hold on to me
I want to hold out on you
That's what you'll tell yourself
As I fade away into your isolation
Pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
You're pitiful, laughable, once again, silent
had a piggybank
like a lion's head
knocked it off the shelf
broke down by the bed
pennies from a skyscraper can kill
i've lined up my change
on the window sill
watched for hours
people down below
the wind has frozen my eyes
lost the courage
could not push them off
pulled my head inside
let a winter pass
laying in bed
my coin have all frozen to the window sill
walked the shadowed streets
in a happy fear
looking up for change
shining through the air
watched for hours
buildings fall through clouds
the wind has frozen my eyes
lost the courage
could not hold them up
fell asleep on a bench
Muffled snaps and louder cracks
Sound of blows knocks you down
Flesh recoils and starts to swell
Hear the rushing of the blood
Carve the rage into you
I've absorbed the pain
It comes so easy
From my arm to your face
Big enough to speak again
Finds a place that's not been numbed
Sinks with lightness once again
Feel the blankness from above
crawled out of the silk sheets
watched the day seep in through slow panes
I feel strangely weakened
long to be the song to help
fixed on a different person
staring blankly through the stain there
shave off the hair she loved so
need to breathe the rules that share
chorus:
so I'm just too late
she fell
from a lucky shoreline
something in the way
she yelled
but I couldnt hear it
leave on what I am wearing
watch her cringe in open hatred
I leave my place of haven
must escape the hell we made
the road breaks clean and careful
tracking dunes across the highway
I laugh as I am careful
spinning down a canyon road
(chorus)
trembles every way
cruel day, but I couldnt save her
brought her back okay
she's dead
but nothing's missing
see me on the cliff I stand on
urgent sounds that break the silence
her laugh was nothing special
I take her with me now
The solar panel's shining face
Is smiling back on me
Twisting off into the sun
It's okay to be lonely
All my missions float away
I never trained too hard
I'm so caught up in the tree of stars
Falling in my backyard
She'll always be what I can't find
She'll always be where I break down
She'll always hide behind a star
I'll always dream, she can't be far
I've got no Houston to whine down to
I've got no protocol
Gravity's so far away
Wrapped on that shrinking ball
I eclipsed my memories
Sleeping inside this pod
Patient, time will carry me
On her back without a sigh
And I won't let her down
My soul is celestial-bound
And if I'm never found
She'll always be
She'll always be what I can't find
She'll always be where I break down
She'll always hide behind a star
I'll always dream, she can't be far
She'll always be what I can't find
She'll always be where I break down
She'll always hide behind a star
I'll always dream, she can't be far
She'll always be what I can't find
She'll always be where I break down
She'll always hide behind a star
I'll always dream, she can't be far
She'll always be what I can't find
She'll always be where I break down
She'll always hide behind a star
I'll always dream, she can't be far
She'll always be what I can't find
She'll always be where I break down
She'll always hide behind a star
Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing through
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Cant you understand oh my little girl
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed is here
In my arms
Words are very
Unessesary
They can only do harm
Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed is here
In my arms
Words are very
Unessessary
No conviction in your numb mind
A hidden cell of chemicals
Keep your soul on my projection
Never turn on the camera
Because I kinda like the blank way
I fill up my life
I don't care for nothing
That gets me too high
I want some dampened spirits
And black and bitter spoons
I'm not looking for affection
I'm living on the moon
No conviction in your voice box
It's buried low beneath the guilt
It all seems real as you whisper
She lies warm and the smell is you
And she knows I kinda like the blank way
You fill up my mind
I don't care for nothing
That gets me too high
I want some dampened spirits
And black and bitter spoons
I'm not looking for reflection
I'm living on the moon
Here I am, right at home in my crater
Here I am feeling old
Here I am wishing for a miracle
I need you to know
That I like the blank way
I fill up the sky
And I care for nothing
You put in my mind
I like the blank way
You fill up my mind
I like the blank way
You fill up my mind
I like the blank way
Right now we're sick of everything
Tonight we'll bind up our brains again
With eyes pinned I'll fly around on your bed
We'll grow close while our hearts disconnect
Morning is limping into the room
Pleading that we bind ourselves again
Rip out that heliotropic rose
Back off please let the lost get lost
I know my faith has meaning
But I've forgotten why
It's so important to me
I can't remember why
Living a phantasm of the nerves
Girlfriends chemicals in your head
Good days eventually oxidize
Put them with thoughts that escape your minds eyes
I know my faith has meaning
But I've forgotten why
It's so important to me
I can't remember why
Seems like I'm fucked forever
Feels like at least for now
I forgot why
Sent away to have my
Head checked
No more playing
In the sand
Frogs are leaping off
My brainstem
They don't seem
To understand
Roadside blurs against
A big bus
Face is slouched against
The glass
I am headed for
A cleansing
In a room without a bath
Didn't it seem
Kind of silly
The way the doctor's
Carried on so uptight
It's not bad being
So distant
I can live inside the gap
Frogs are hopping off
My brainstem
So excited to be sane
Didn't it seem
Kind of silly
The way the doctor's
Carried on so
Now that I've become
A monster to them
Have to keep their fear
Turned on all night long
I've gone away to have
My head checked
I guess I need to have
I got high on scrapings from my nails
Now I'm back down, my eyes are growing dark
My burnt spoon has dried beneath the bed
And I'm dreaming of dirty blue balloons
I've waited so long without you
I've waited too long for you
He came in, he didn't speak my language
I paid him with everything I had
And promised next time he opened up his mouth
And then they floated out dirty blue balloons
I've waited so long without you
I've waited too long for you
I've waited so long without you
I've waited too long for you
Nothing helps and no one else can make it feel okay
Float me through the day
Nothing helps and no one else can make it feel alright
Float me through the night
I've got a catacomb with fur covered Styrofoam
So come over now and sleep
Time isn't here again, wasted thoughts that could've been
Now we can devise our plan
Daylight, daylight
Daylight won't find us here
I've got a catacomb with flags that flew fifty years ago
Let sleep overcome your mind
God isn't safe again, molest trees and chop down men
So we must revise our plan
Daylight, daylight
Daylight won't find us here
Daylight, daylight
Daylight won't find us here
Daylight, daylight
I'm sick with the guilt and I'm dipped in the anger
And sex is the thing that has brought me disease
I want to hurt people, especially ones I know
I'm so fucking scared I just wish I could go
But go to the store or the park or the mountains
I'll still be sick there as the anger spews from me like fountains
Like fountains
I can break things, things plastic but things I'll remember I broke it's
the the gnawing, the clawing,
The scraper inside wants to clean out all that's inside so there's only
without
A numb hard shell is how they'll find me let me show you my best
I won't be that easy to find...
I will fit in with the rest...
I will fit in with the rest
The past is still with me, it follows not stopping
Slowing me down to show me that nothing is left in my life
To say that I have changed
I'm still here obsessing and thinking of nothing
Can't even be honest with myself
I don't want to fit in with the rest
I don't feel alone
I can't seem afraid
I wanted to think
but I'll sleep it away
some thing I forgot
somewhere to sit down
some stuff to do up
some crap that I found
we're the credulous ones
on a dead machine
blowing bucks into banks with no shame
too loud in my ears
to fill up my mind
too black to ignite
two word who will bind
what blank did I draw
what kind of a day
which one had to go
whatever you say
chorus
don't try and read this
it means nothing
I can't say this
Twisting slowly up the walk
I want to get there so quickly
But my body is not doing
What I thought (a knee) could do
(the pile) is getting slippery
Your illusion's getting early
And I feel a certain panic
Flowing through me... in waves
Won't you listen
Listen to me
Won't you listen
Can't you see
Let me in
I've come (for/from) mother
Let me in
i know
you know every desperado
and sharp shooter
in the west you say
that i can't see behind
the mask of those who call themselves
the good guys
in this who take and take
'so are you with me or not you say
this time decide'
balmy days sweet sangria
she's been gone
have you seen her
se
Two bright eyes and one red mouth
And two long legs and one icon
They can't think and they can't act
They wear straps, two long legs
Submission, submission, submission
They work hard and they sell things
We like that 'cause there's no choice
Submission, submission, submission
We can't see 'cause it's like that
We can't hear 'cause it's too late
Small crimes
Smiles stretched on
Old trees
Strike your match so
Lightly
Watch the crooked
Smoke rise
Empty praters to
Heaven
Just a mask of
Blue sky
Look away to
Small crimes
Kick the dog for
Eating
Leave you old self
Hungry
Watch in coldest
Pleasure
Tell the world what
Ever turns you on is fine
With me as long as
Matches don't get wet
Warm winds calling me a
Coward make me smile
They can't convince
Me now
Burned prayers turn me
On to nowhere sick
And empty
I don't feel so bad
Ever turns around again
Says to me softly
Start the fire now
Small crimes sever
Used-up old
Considerations
Freedoms not so great
All fears burn up
They said hold on to the
Stairway railing
Meaning everything
Is meaning
Something makes it hard
To keep track
Hold on found me
Tangled forest
Growing got my
Dryest summer
Small crimes held my
Swiftly losing patience
Can't decide a move
Pick from the bottom on the left side
I wanna win tonight
I blink my eyes real quick-like
Wash away the haze
While I'm blinking quickly
I see the man on screen
He's (lying on the face)ball
He thinks I do not see
He's an elevator passenger
Bored as he can be
He's the man who lives next door
He's come here to frighten me
He takes out his saxophone
Plays those lonely hidden notes
Can't speak about this to anyone
This man's eyes are serious
He's the man in my screen
I came here to
Be shallow
And to watch you spill
Out all your dreams
Sucked them up like a
Cool drink
I was never too willing
To leave
Some empty friend
Who talked me into sleep
Sweet dreams
And threw my wings
Into the blazing sun
Coughed a castle
Of crystal
Across the bright yellow
Kitchen floor
Watched the roaches
Grow kingly
Served them death by
The ivory sink shore
Caught up in my
Thoughts a
Beehive swarming
I can't swat you out your
Stories are too sweet
Should've never
Believed you
She was giddy
With remorse
As she skipped
River stones
Off slick rapid
Rushing heads
Babies belched
From below
Clenching shame in
Her stomach
It felt the same as the
Last time
Cramming fear in her
White fists
Hoping this is the
Last time
She put rocks in
Her pockets
Shrunk away from the
Water's edge
Fell down hard by a tree
She stuffed shame in
Her pockets
It felt the same as the
Last time
She crammed fear in her
White fists
And hope this is the
Last time
Brainsqueals
Same as the last time
Brainsqueals
She hope this is the
Sometimes pearshaped
Women meltdown
Onto concrete
Splashing sun and
Sidewalk insects
Down by these feet
Sometimes puddles
Terrify me
As they gaze up
Scrap of paper
Floating crumpled
I can't pick up
Goodbye
No one's ever gonna
Find out from this
Shut mouth
Just be sure to keep
These eyes closed
They can read those
Sometimes people use
Their sound holes
Pointed at me
Rusty winds groaning
Down alleys
Blow right pas me
Sometimes pipes
Creaking inside here
Know me too well
Flesh and steel I had
Carved up
For a farewell
Too late
I'll never wish for it
But now it grows inside
I'll show you a trick with
Ants when
The sun's high in the sky
We can
Burn them up to crispy
Black shells
See them crunched by
Old, slow, slick snails
Light the fuse inside the
Dead bird
Feather flurries rain on
Our heads
Empty nest with three
Small brown eggs
We'll think of something
Before the night falls
Don't hurt a fly
They all sang
Don't rape a girl
In bright may
Don't kill anyone ever
Lay still and stand
This fever
The sun's just
A big glass
We're all ants
Breath your death down
Cause you will not see
Let it drip down
Let it soak your feet
Yesterday I watched
Her breakdown
Split in two she's
Quite appealing
Subtle ways I could
Have hurt her
Rack my brain when
Prince al is fun name)
(tear the pen) won't play straight
Doesn't care about shoelace
A rubber mask who breathes
He makes you
Wanna strike hard
Those who can't, try
Scapes you back home
Something bout his loose walk
All the (kids just) drain down
Stretches out in your space
Pulls you back to hate
I do believe it's coming
Don't dread it's approach
The only preference we might have
Is that I hope to see it
Could start with an invasion
Or maybe it'll come from fire
The bomb's so boring
I wanna see some blood
There'll be people in the streets
I mean the ones that live in houses
I wanna see 'em screaming
"Holy mother sweet jesus"
I may seem a bit morbid
But you totally can't deny
'cause when it hits I'll be laughing
And you will start to... cry
Young and old and middle aged
Domesticated creatures as well
There are other ways to look at this
Than a state of living hell
As your friends, relatives, and acquaintances
Perish in catastrophe
Just think of it as the best movie
You'll ever hope to see
It's got action, violence
Rape is there too
Starvation-- whole nations
And it's all for me and you
It's got everything you wanted
This admission is free
There's only one catch--
My little angel, how soon do you go?
Come here for hours never go
My purple princess, how much you know?
I'm always pleased that, you don't say no
I do not mind that, you are a girl
I do not mind that little girl
You see it's me who loves you the most
There's a philosopher I once met
He showed me many things
He told me things of the world
His face was unusual-
But it could tell a story-- with rich
Detail...in rich detail
Sometimes eating
Sometimes eyes closed
There was always the face
Of his knowledge of things
He never spoke--
He needed not to
He needed not to
He sits in a zoo in North America
Has no other in his habitat
He's originally from west Africa
West Africa
West Africa
I heard you driving in my car
Then in a frozen bar
I claimed I didn't care for you
But your verse got trapped inside my head
Over and over again
You played yourself to death in me
I thought I'd drop you easily
But that was not to be
You burrowed like a summer tick
So you invade my sleep and confuse my dreams
turn my nights to sleepless itch
Stuck on you 'till the end of time
I'm too tired to fight your rhyme
Stuck on you 'till the end of time
You've got me paralyzed
Holding in the telephone
I hear your midrange moan
You're everywhere inside my room
Even when I'm alone I hear your mellow drone
You're everywhere inside of me
Stuck on you 'till the end of time
I'm too tired to fight your rhyme
Stuck on you 'till the end of time
You've got me trapped
I can't escape your incessant whine
when you beam it out all across the sky
No I can't escape your insipid rhyme
When you shoot it deep
I've been freezing my time
I've been slowing my breath
I've been saving my soul
I want you to freeze too
Are you haunting me again?
Are you thawing out my head?
I want you to get out
I'm on an ocean that has a brain and makes us dream
I'm on a mission to wipe imagination clean
You grow inside me, dying time and time again
I'm on a mission to escape from what my life has been
I've been hiding in snow
I've been treading on ghosts
Are you haunting me again?
Are you burning up my head?
I will never solve algebra of need
Any thought just might
Turn to flesh and drag me back to life
I'm on an ocean that has a brain and makes us dream
I'm on a mission to wipe imagination clean
You grow inside me, dying time and time again
I'm on a mission to escape from what my life has been without you
To escape my life has been without you
To escape my life has been without you
To escape my life has been without you
To escape my life has been without you
They won't ever find out just where I hid them
One-hundred stones that sparkle in darkness
They caught me downtown changing the bus lines
An easy target midday no disguise
Sergeant Politeness
Searching for weak points
Caress my ego
Trick me so softly
I only took them to find my way out
The self-infixed freeze that comes from boredom
You see I let them, I let them find me
One-hundred stones that mean nothing to me
Sergeant Politeness
Searching for weak points
Caress my ego
Trick me so softly
I'm so innocent, sir
That I can't reveal a thing
I'm blind and happy, sir
To be tortured in this way
Sergeant Politeness
Searching for weak points
Caress my ego
And trick me so softly
Sergeant Politeness
I'm so enlightened
Go on, molest me
I won't confess now
Sergeant Politeness
Sergeant Politeness
Sergeant Politeness

OH RHYTHM WANNA FEEL THE RHYTHM
Shh, daddy
She just came to say goodnight
I'll be right back
Daddy, she's nice
Hmm, change of plans
We're going for a ride
She got a new car
Oh, we're not going very far
Ooh, been tryin' to work this out
I can't get out the house
See you're parked outside
I'm telling you it's on tonight
Girl, I'm telling you that you should wait
Wait for me to come inside your gate
When the coast is clear, now don't be late
You can watch me move as I infiltrate
Girl, I told ya
You don't have to sneak out
You don't have to fight
I could creep up inside
And hold ya
Anything you want done
Da done, done
You could creep up inside
K there's a motion detector
So you gotta lay low
Til' you get to the keypad
Here's my secret code
To the V, to the A, to the L, to the E
To the R, to the I, to the A
What's that say?
Now just up the stairs
Left, right, right there
Are you sure of this?
I'm getting kind of nervous
Girl, I told ya
You don't have to sneak out
You don't have to fight
I could creep up inside
And hold ya
Anything you want done
Da done, done
You could creep up inside
Girl, you got me trapped under your bed
Daddy about to wake up bust my head
Boy, did you make me get so loud?
Since I got you here and you can't get out
Girl, what you wanna do?
Girl, what you wanna do?
What you gonna do when they come for you?
Said you wanna creep up
Baby, can't you keep up?
Baby, now we both stuck, yeah
Girl, I told ya
You don't have to sneak out
You don't have to fight
I could creep up inside
You don't think I know that
I say the word and you'll be running
You'll be lucky
Just come and creep up inside
Daddy she's sleeping over
Superstars drive fancy cars
Like soop'ed up Cadillacs
All shuzzi'ed up on the boulevard
Louis logo's on the bags
So outrageous, So extreme
Champagne and money rainin' heavily
Pool cabana's blowin' twenty grand
Straight pimpin', Do you understand?
Ain't it wild? Havin' Dr. Garth on redial
Personal trainer and stylist
(I'd) Let it all go for you
Cause you're my favorite thing that I like to do!
I don't wanna be Rich & Famous
If I can't blow it all on you!
I don't wanna be Rich & Famous
If we can't live it up (Live it up), Can't live it up! (Live it up)
Don't wanna be Rich & Famous

Only flashin' cash
Sushi dinner in Japan
Breakfast made in France (Yummy)
