Must have been the devil who changed my mind
Must have been the wind blowing not me crying Half the joy of leaving was the space I left behind Now I'm back, angel-headed hollow-eyed Placed myself at the eye of the storm Just didn't see the signpost to scorn The blue sky wrinkled through my tears Then darkness grounded all my fears I gave him my sugar; He switched it for salt Should have seem him coming that's always my fault Rocks for my pillow and sand for my bed For better or worse I left him for dead But two rivers to each other run Words that shook me like the kick of a gun Had something in my heart ain't got no name Turned out he felt the same Ain't it lonesome, ain't it sad I was the only happiness he ever had By Indian river the vows were said In a red devil's dress I was wed Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Bitch's baby round lady Came to me in a dream Then lightning struck and thunder roared And nothing was as it seemed A two-headed doctor walked on the water And buried a lemon outside my door He turned and laughed, threw up his hands When I asked him what it was for He sang "Ships in the ocean rocks in the sea Blond-headed woman made a fool outta me" Then everything went crazy My shoes filled with blood The water rose the wind did howl The river looked ready to flood I left my man asleep to drown And ran without looking back around Ring the bells of mercy Send the sinnerman home The keys to the kingdom are lost and gone And I'm left to die alone All these girls grown old now All that long hair in the grave Realize what's done is done It's far too late to be saved Here kitty, kitty, kitty Here kitty, kitty, kitty Here kitty, kitty, kitty Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone Kitty cat bone, kitty kitty cat bone |

I disappoint you
You give up on me Dust of the earth and light of the plains When will I know I will see you again You never miss the water till the well runs dry You never miss the sun till it leaves the sky Only know when it's too late to try You never love a man till he says goodbye Cold wind blew my spirit away It's gone for a year and a day I ought to get out of this place One of these days one of these Fate tells lies Maybe tonight maybe here What can I say when words have no place Can the earth beneath shoulder my weight You never miss the water till the well runs dry You never miss the sun till it leaves the sky Only know when it's too late to try You never love a man till he says goodbye Cold wind blew my spirit away It's gone for a year and a day I ought to get out of this place One of these days one of these Fire in my head Cloud in my mouth Fire in my head Cloud in my mouth Old skin don't you knowthis face Nothing to be gained here in this place Old skin don't you knowthis face Nothing to be gained here in this place You never miss the water till the well runs dry You never miss the sun till it leaves the sky Only know when it's too late to try You never love a man till he says goodbye Cold wind blew my spirit away It's gone for a year and a day I ought to get out of this place One of these days one of these Feel a bit false Uneasy Feel a bit false Uneasy Raw bony ghost waiting by my door Biding his time what's he waiting for You never miss the water till the well runs dry You never miss the sun till it leaves the sky Only know when it's too late to try You never love a man till he says goodbye Cold wind blew my spirit away It's gone for a year and a day I ought to get out of this place One of these days one of these |

Damn girl's gone crazy
All these good-looking blues Banshees with bad skin Coming home to roost Boxed into flying Scratching out birds Fed a diet of sharp knives Earthworms and dirt Damn girl's gone crazy All these good-looking blues Banshees with bad skin Coming home to roost Fishing with bare hands Coming up dry Branches without roots Cover my sky Damn girl's gone crazy All these good-looking blues Banshees with bad skin Coming home to roost Boxed into flying Scratching out birds Fed a diet of sharp knives Earthworms and dirt Fishing with bare hands Coming up dry Branches without roots Cover my sky |

Set my heart strings strummin'
Resonate in me Stars burst diamond sockets Sounding of the sea Songbird on my shoulder Peaceful when I sleep Be with me as I grow older Glory cloud we'll keep Be the light I see by reflected in the tide Following the colour of summer ou will be my guide Little stabs of laughter Fusing in your eyes Time will pass as we grow closer Glory cloud will rise |

i'm standing barefoot
Lost in the tall grass A place so quiet It's as if I were never born The clouds are leaving Beneath the setting sun Watch out for her She can give you dreams She didn't know I saw her Kneeling by the water her mother always fought her Didn't love her daughter She didn't know I saw her Waiting by the river I wish her gone So I can want her back She is my laugh I am her laughter I am her face And she is mine I want to join her But I cannot move Now together I cannot lose |

If you receive an e-mail with a subject of "Badtimes", delete it immediately
WITHOUT reading it. This is the most dangerous e-mail virus yet. It will re-write your hard drive. Not only that, but it will scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will recalibrate your refrigerator's coolness setting so all your ice cream melts. It will demagnetize the strips on all your credit cards, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use subspace field harmonics to render any CDs you try to play unreadable. It will give your ex-boy/girlfriend your new phone number. It will mix antifreeze into your fishtank. It will drink all your beer and leave its socks out on the coffee table when there's company coming over. It will put a dead kitten in the back pocket of your good suit and hide your car keys when you are late for work. Badtimes will make you fall in love with a penguin. It will give you nightmares about circus midgets. It will pour sugar in your gas tank and shave off both your eyebrows while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing the dinner and hotel room to your Visa card. It will seduce your grandmother. It does not matter if she is dead, such is the power of Badtimes, it reaches out beyond the grave to sully those things we hold most dear. It moves your car randomly around parking lots so you can't find it. It will kick your dog. It will leave libidinous messages on your boss's voice mail in your voice! It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve. Badtimes will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet seat up. It will make a batch of methamphetamine in your bathtub and then leave bacon cooking on the stove while it goes out to chase high school kids with your new snowblower. These are just a few of the signs. Be very, very careful! |

A misunderstanding born outta contempt
That was the rock I was battered against Oh sorrow dogged by sorrow was in my heart Don't even know just where to start I was knowin' too little an' feelin' too much Should've seen the penny dropping just a touch I walked away as mad as could be No matter how I try i'ts the same damn thing I'm knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch Knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch Stone dead from standin' still Can't turn from the shadow that wishes me ill A bone in the fly a fly in the bone Kept hanging around the door to my home Oh tell it to the river and tell it to the sea this man's gonna be the death of me My tiny fist just isn't a threat Not even enough to make him sweat I'm knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch Knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch The wrinkle in the sheet next to him Didn't see the trouble that she was in When the ill wind started to blow It was far too late for me to go Sun's gonna shine bright at midnight Before I find out if my hunches were right He knew damn well what lies were for Hulf an' puff an' show her the door Life robs you of your bones an' slips by in dreams And absolutely nothing is as it seems that halfway point between life and death Slipped by and now I've less time left I've worn this face far too long I just got used to always bein' wrong i know one thing one thing I know That sweet sweet man's just gotta go I'm knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch Knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch I'm knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch Knowin' too little an' feelin' too much More than a little bit outta touch |
