Seventeen dreams for you
They'll all be gone tomorrow Pull me a face And say something witchy It's time to get out of your bed Some people talk like babies Others say nothin' at all Give me a slug From the wonderful jug It's time to get out of your head Well we're travelin' light Gonna speed through the night Only now you recall It means nothing at all You were stuck in a dream And you wanted to scream But it's nothing at all No it's nothin' Don't wanna go to class Said they could kiss you goodbye You've got no choise Feel like christopher boyce Time to get out of your bed Words you don't understand Are all makin' sense tonight It's hard to think straight When you're feelin' so great Only wanna get out of your head Well we're travelin' light Gonna speed through the night Only now you recall It means nothing at all You were stuck in a dream And you wanted to scream But it's nothing at all No it's nothing at all Well we're travelin' light Gonna speed through the night But it's nothing at all No it's nothing at all |

Then i painted your face
On a twenty dollar bill But it isn't legal tender And i think about you still And all the comfort in words Provide no comfort We can all go mad together That's what friends are for And at the sideshow by the seashore The girls are dressed as mermaids An electrical storm has caught us in a trap Maybe if i yell at you You'll trust in what i'm sayin' But i'm keepin' all the secrets And i have nothing else to say |

Sneakin' a kiss
On the fire escape A little game of pup tent With a blanket and a broom My mind is taking photographs Of every little thing Exhibit number 2 ... A piece of white chocolate And if you want me to, I'm gonna cry you a river tonight And if you ask me to, I'm gonna crawl right into your dreams And did you know, I feel a chokin' in the back of my throat I see you walkin' Walkin' on tippytoes Swayin' like a sunflower On a Spanish afternoon My mind is taking photographs Of every little thing Exhibit number 8 ... Don't be late You crept in Underneath the radar Living in a glass house Sleeping on a glass bed But my mind has taken photographs Of every little thing Honey turn around And the shame remains |

You can never give
The finger to the blind Sometimes I act so stupid But you never seem to mind That's no way to be Laughing at the deaf I know that I repeat myself When I got nothing left But you know Hidden thoughts Poison life, poison life Yeah you know Hidden feelings You steal from yourself Soho has the boots Noho's got the crack New England has the foliage But I'm not goin back You tell me that I'm good I know that I was bad You made me feel so guilty I can't remember what I had But you know Hidden thoughts Poison life, poison life Yeah you know Hidden feelings You steal from yourself |

In the tiny tiny hours
Between the evening and the day We have placed our final bets We have come out to play Fancy drinks a lucky toasts I like this time the most You're out all night Chasin' girlies You're late to work And you go home earlies Lookin' lost in chinatown Why are we hidin' from our friends Rushing 'round in taxi cabs Is it time to make amends You'll get yours and i'll get mine You can't be lucky all the time You're out all night Chasin' girlies You're late to work And you go home earlies |

Tell me stories on my birthday
Buy me gifts on Halloween She's pretending not know me But I know where she's been Change your name and change Your number I'm gonna find you anyhow I have been through all your things Asking when and how and why I spend too much time in airplanes Eating peanuts And getting high Don't know why I can't stop smiling When I only need to cry |

Well they're swapping pharmaceuticals in Mussolini Park
And they're wigglin' and wobbilin' and dozin' in the dark And it's winter in New Jersey and it's Christmas in New York With a giggle and a stare and a bottle and a cork And Kristina took your photo with a needle and a spoon But she said we got to hurry cos her dad will be home soon And these superfreaky memories have put me in my place But then my superfreaky memories are gone without a trace Please excuse my eyes Please excuse my hands Please excuse my eyes Put me in my place In a dirty little room in a nasty little world You were out of your mind you were throwin' up your hands You were makin' crazy plans left a message on the mirror And your mouth was making words but there was nobody there Now the gears are rolling by and you don't get any wiser And the years are rolling on but you're going round and round And these superfreaky memories have put me in my place But my superfreaky memories are gone without a trace |

I wanna plug you in
I wanna get you things Send you a pentagram Feed you diazepam I wanna play the game I wanna live again I wanna bend your spoons And make your silver shine Because your surly stare Is so revealing Because your feet are bare My eyes are peeling I'll wear a stylin' mustache You'll wear a frozen smile We'll run like tamal tigers We'll drink the poison vile I'm not the jack of diamonds I'm not the six of spades I don't know what you thought I'm not your astronaut Because your surly stare Is so revealing Because your feet are bare My eyes are peeling Because your mistletoe Because i gamble Because i told you so My eyes are scrambled |

When candles light themselves
And the air turns creamy Why not take a photograph? You look so dreamy Then stand in the blackness Smile at the tinkling Blinded by lovedust What did I see? A million, a billion, a trillion stars A million, a billion star I'm bad with faces And worse with names But the last glove is happy Its all the same I set a trap for you But I'm the one who's all caught up Blinded by lovedust This is what I saw A million, a billion, a trillion stars A million a billion stars A million, a billion, a trillion stars A million, a billion stars |

It's true
You're lazy You're tired And crazy And you know there's something more But you can't give it a name Someone's selling all your heroes And they seem so tame You heard it all before And said your case was tragic You heard it all before And now they say it's magic You need Time off For good Behavior And you know there's something else But you can't give a name Someone's selling all your heroes And it seems such a shame You heard it all before You said your case was tragic You heard it all before And now they say it's magic You heard it all before They said your case was tragic You heard it all before And now they say it's magic |
