Damn, this situation's new to me, why?
I see a head afraid to be himself, I bet he'd to have a little encouragement from the opposite, come that side of the floor...Yes! Egg him along, make him feel at ease with himself, steal his clothes, leave him his shoes, let's get this marmaduke naked! Makehim feel at ease, let's get this maraduke naked so lose your head and go to pieces..... Don't you make fun of me... don't you make fun of me! I'm gonna be, gonna be, I'm gonna be a hot dancer! Oohh... now that the basics are down, converse amongst yourselves. But, keep an eye out for the next complication. In other words, grab the next motherfucker marmaduke, who refuses to submit to these pelvic ostentations. I can't wait until the syllables bend. Let's get this marmaduke naked, let's get this marmaduke naked... so lose your head and go to pieces! Don't you make fun of me... don't you make fun of me! I'm gonna be, gonna be, I'm gonna be a hot dancer! |

What if your brain,
unexpectedly and suddenly, picked out things to flip around and view a lot differently? What if blue sky, all of a sudden turned a purple hue? We would shit a brick the size of all of it... what if? What if I was just daydreaming? What if I lived in a pear? What if my watch read 4:20 every hour, every day? You can bet your dollar I'd be happy! I forgot to remember; I forgot to remember my pain. Take me to your leader or die by the fly guy! What if mothballs, hangin' around too close to microwaves suddenly woke up and said, 'Take me to your leader or die by fly guy! He'll push ya' out, no wings attached!' Just do as I say, no mistake, he'll blow away. What if I was daydreaming? What if I lived in a pear? What if I had a mustard drenched cucumber tied to my leg and I did not want my pants to get dirty? What if this, what if that?! Go! I forgot to remember; I forgot to remember my pain. Take me to your leader or die by the fly guy! I forgot to remember my...PAIN! My pain! Forgot to inject my...cocaine! Forgot to apply my...rogaine! Forgot to remember...my pain! I never think, I never thought, oh maybe I'm insane! I think I like being way the fuck out of my brain! I forgot to remember; I forgot to remember my pain. Take me to your leader or die by the fly guy! |

We could live in a house outside of town,
we could build our own version of society, well...there'd be no one to answer to and complicate our lives, we could be the opitome of self sufficience. Time to pay! To Pay! Time to pay; you've got to pay me! Why should I? Why should we pay for your mistake? To carry on. Why should we carry on your false integrity? When you've shown us that you can't even keep your nest clean. So far we've put financial gain ahead of human needs, quality of our lives should be prioritized. Time to pay! To Pay! Time to pay; you've got to pay me! Why should I? Why should we pay for your mistake? To carry on. Modify your version so we can carry on. To carry on. To be conclusive, I'd like to say, you've done a super-fine job with your display. I see now that you cannot comprehend what it means to respect your life and then some! To be rich, that would be great. No, but it doesn't mean POO-POO without your nest! So why should I pay for your mistake, man? Why should I? Why should we pay for your mistake? To carry on. Modify your version so we can carry on. To carry on. |

Floatin' 'round my brain, tryin' to think about the other thing.
Than that thought you know I'm considering. What if what I thought, about who I think I thought I was, was nothing more than my cerebellum slobbering? Azwethinkweism is hard to think about, but simple to trust. You'll know yer on it when your brain won't stop to take a break, no! So when donut boy comes askin' around, tryin' to figure out somethin' new, you just smile and say, "Pardon you! I'm sifting through some particles and farcing through some folds. I've stumbled upon a brain fart which melts away your molds!" So I think upon that ponder while I'm pondering the thought, just thinkin' about the thinkweiz is leaving me distraught! Well I think I thought I saw an Azwethinkweiz, lookin' like we think we do. Like we think we do. Some think I'm insane, 'cause I think about the other thing, than that one thought you call reality. What if what you thought, about who you think you thought you were, was nothing more than illusion rapidly crumbling! Azwethinkweism should be a topic we all can trust. It's just too bad that it makes your head go zippitykrack @#$% dang! So when donut boy comes sniffing around trying to figure out something new, you just laugh and say "Pardon you, I'm sifting through some particles and farcing through some folds.

About a hundred years ago now, thought I was left for dead.
Soliloquy, she was my... A picture, a wake, my metaphoric friend. So then I fell in love with an irony named life, it taught me this from that and... a picture, a wake, you're gonna be hilikus. History has a tendency to block out the popular beliefs about the leaders of the time, so glisten with my syllables and ponder the thought, maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go! You've got to be, So good to be, You've got to be HILIKUS! So I took a walk outside with my new found friend and the knowledge imbibe. I figured I'd find another with the same attitude, yes, then maybe I could talk to someone other than myself! The doors are now swinging wide open, a positive attitude and the ilk in my pocket had a lot to do with my new found friend, the hilikus. History has a tendency to block out the popular beliefs about the leaders of the time, so glisten with my syllables and ponder the thought, maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go!

Will I ever get to where I'm going?
Will I ever follow through with what I had planned. I guess it's possible that I have been a bit distracted and the directions for me are a lot less in demand. Will I ever get to where I'm going? If I do, will I know when I am there? If the wind blew me in the right direction would I even care? I would. I take a look around; it's evident the scene has changed.

I can see for miles. There's comfort in my dark seat... and chaos in the aisles. These eyes are not your eyes and these eyes are not the color that your arid eyes might be. No, I was not around when those eyes of yours decided so I refuse to kneel before the sights you choose to see. When I close my eyes... I remember how to smile. Under my umbrella... I'm an accomplished exile. These eyes are not your eyes and these eyes are not the color that your arid eyes might be.

I’m floating down a river
Oars freed from their homes long ago Lying face up on the floor Of my vessel I marvel at the stars And feel my heart overflow Further down the river Two weeks without my lover I’m in this boat alone Floating down a river named emotion Will I make it back to shore? Or drift into the unknown Further down the river I’m building an antenna Transmissions will be sent When I am through Maybe we can meet again Further down the river And share what we both discovered Then revel in the view Further down the river I’m floating down a river |

Redefine
Imagine your brain As a Canister filled with ink Yeah, now think of your body As the pen where the ink resides Fuse the two, KAPOW! What are you now? You're the human magic marker Won't you please surprise my eyes? It's in your nature You can paint whatever picture You like No matter what Ted Koppel says on channel 4 tonight So modify this third rock from the sun By painting myriads of pictures With the colors of one I'm sick of painting in black and white My pen is dry, now I'm uptight So sick of limiting myself To fit your definition Picture the scene, where whatever you thought Would, in the blink of an eye Manifest and become illustrated You'd be sure man That every line drawn reflected a life that you loved Not an existence that you hated So, must we demonstrate that We can't get it straight? We've painted a picture, Now we're drowning in paint Lets figure out what the fuck it's about Before the picture we painted Chews us up and spits us out I'm sick of painting in black and white My pen is dry, now I'm uptight So sick of limiting myself To fit your definition Redefine |

Vitamin
I'm born I'm alive I breathe In a moment or two I realize That the sphere upon which I reside Is asleep on its feet Should I go back to sleep? We orbit the sun I grow up My open eyes see A zombified, somnambulist society Leaving us as vitamins For the hibernating human animal Do you see what I mean? You stare at me like a vitamin On the surface you hate But you know you need me I'll come dressed as any pill you deem fit Whatever helps you swallow truth All the more easily And I wonder, will you digest me? Into the sleep machine I won't plug in In fact I'd rather die before I will comply To you, my friend I write the reason I still live Cause in my mind it's set the vitamin is ripe to give Coming closer to another 2000 years You and I will pry The closed eye of the sleep machine You stare at me like I’m a vitamin On the surface you hate, But you know you need me. I'll come dressed as any pill you deem fit. Whatever helps you swallow the truth, All the more easily. |

At first I see an open wound,
infected and disastrous. It breathes chaotic catastrophe, it cries to be renewed. Its tears are the color of anger, they dry to form a scab. To the touch, its stiff and resilient, underneath, the new skin breathe. Its all been saved... with exception for the right parts. When will we be new skin? As outwardly cliche as it may seem, yes, something under the surface says, ″C′est la vie.″ It is a circle, there is a plan... dead skin will atrophy itself to start again. Look closely at the open wound... see past what covers the surface Underneath chaotic catastrophe, creation takes stage. Dead skin will atrophy itself to start again. Dead skin will atrophy itself to start again. Dead skin will atrophy itself to start again. Its all been saved... with exception for the right parts. When will we be new skin? Its all been seen... with exception for what could be. When will we be new skin? until the 20th century, reality was everything humans could touch, smell, see, and hear. since the inital publication of the charged electromagnetic spectrum, humans learned that what they can touch, smell, see, and hear...is less than one millionth of reality. Fallacious cognitions, spewed from televisions, do mold our decisions. So stop and take a look, and you′ll see what I see now. Its all been seen... with exception for the right parts. When will we be new skin? Its all been seen... with exception for what could be. When will we be new skin? skin? |

Idiot Box
You keep your riches and I'll sew my stitches You can't make me think like you, mundane I've got a message for all those who think that They can etch his words inside my brain T.V. what do I need? Tell me who to believe! What's the use of autonomy When a button does it all? So listen up, Glisten up closely all Who've seen the fuckin eye ache too It's time to step away from cable train And when we finally see the subtle light This quirk in evolution will begin To let us live and recreate T.V. what do I need? Tell me who to believe! Whats the use of autonomy When a button does it all? T.V. what should I see? Tell me who should I be? Lets do our mom a favor and drop A new god off a wall Let me see past the fatuous knocks I've gotta rid myself of this idiot box Let you see past the feathers and flocks And help me plant a bomb in this idiot box From the depths of the sea To the tops of the trees To the seat of a lazy boy Staring at a silver screen!! |

Glass
If I had a dime for every time you walked away I could afford to not give a shit And buy a drink and drown the day But your pockets, they are empty Yeh, and mine are times two So why not make an about-face And accept the love I send to you? You're never gonna be content if you wont try Try to see outside your line There you go, you did it again You act as if there's binders on your eyes Should I apologize if what I say burns your ears and stains your eyes? Oh, did I crack your shell? When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well Like a bottle with the cork stuck Your true ingredients trapped inside Through the cloudy glass we catch a glimpse of you I guess the hard shell represents your pride Oh, if only it could be different We could uncover the you, you deny Between two, a small discrepancy One complicates and one simplifies Take those fucking blinders off your eyes! So if I had a dime for every time you walked away You could bet your bottom dollar that I'd be filthy rich by noon today |

On this page you see a little girl giggling a hippopotamus.
I wonder why? On this page you see a little girl giggling at hippopotamus. I wonder why? Turn the page, thank you. On this page you see a little girl giggling at a hippopotamus. I wonder why? Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t say things that hurt others, said pussycat. Pussycat, pussycat, pussycat, pussycat like, isn't that hippo fat? Fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat or shout hyena I hate you hate you, hate you, you hate you, hate you hate I found a sound in the house one day, if you know who lost it, I'll give it away! Away! This sound I found said, this sound belongs to a hot ray, ray, hot, pot, pot. The magic medicine worked! (Thanks to charmaine for these lyrics) |

A Certain Shade of Green
A certain shade of green Tell me is that what you need? All signs around say move ahead Could someone please explain to me your Ever present lack of speed? Are your muscles bound by ropes? Or do crutches cloud your day? My sources say the road is clear And street signs guide the way Are you gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.? What are you waiting for A certain shade of green? I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate What are you waiting for A certain shade of green? Would a written invitation Signed, "Choose now or lose it all" Sedate your hesitation? Or inflame and make you stall? You've been raised in limitation but that glove never fit quite right The time has come for hand-me-downs Choose a new, please evolve Take flight What are you waiting for? A written invitation? A public declaration? A private consolation? Remeber when you procrastinate you choose last I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate. Are you gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.? What are you waiting for, A certain shade of green? I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate. What are you waiting for? x5 |

Favorite Things
I'm thinking of my soul's sovereignty And I know everything you hate in me Fill me up with over-pious badgerings To throw them up, oh, one of my favorite things Remember all the lessons fed to me? Me the young sponge, so ready to agree Years have gone, I recognize the walking dead Now aware that I'm alive and way ahead Too bad the things that make you mad Are my favorite things And I'm so happy I see you looking, I know that you're thinking That I'll never go anywhere The things that I've done and the things That I've seen, I don't really expect you to care |

I'm home alone tonight. Full moon illuminates my room, and sends my mind aflight. I think I was dreaming up some thoughts that were seemingly possible...with you. So I call you on the tin can phone. We rendezvous at a quarter-two, and make sure we're alone. I think I've found a way for you and I to finally fly free. When we get there, we're gonna fly so far away. Making sure to laugh; while we experience anti-gravity. Anti-gravity----- Anti-gravity----- For years, I kept to myself. Now potentialities are bound, are living under my shelf Simply choose your destination from the diamond canopy, and we'll be there. So I call you on the tin can phone. We rendezvous at a quarter-two, and make sure we're alone. I think I've found the way for you and I to finally be free When we get there, we're gonna fly so far away. Making sure to laugh; while we experience anti-gravity. Anti-gravity Anti-gravity ha ah oh yeah Anti gravity, anti gravity Oh oh oh oh yeah |

Deep Inside
It's 3 o'clock, and we ask ourselves, "Where are we now?" It seems we've wondered out of bounds again! (Over and over, we ask ourselves why we don't utilize things that are stored deep inside of our brains!) I'm on my own and I can't see straight! Am I so stoned that I can't see straight? Man, I've got to find my way back home, but I'm too deep inside It's 4 o'clock, and we ask ourselves, "Where did I go wrong? We passed my house at least an hour ago!" Over and over, we ask ourselves why don't we utilize things that are stored deep inside of our brains! I'm on my own and I can't see straight? Am I sooo stoned that I can't see straight? It's 5 o'clock, and we ask ourselves, "We need to get home! The sun is creeping overhead again!" I'm way too deep inside to go home... I've got to get sane! |

On my way home, police car pulled me over.
After they left, I puttered out of gas. Triple-A' came, but my card was expired! I had to walk home, and of course, it rained half the time. I tried to get some shut-eye, then I was abducted! They put cold things in my butt. They sampled a bit of my D.N.A. They left me on top of my sheets, I dreamt I went potty, then woke up drenched in me. This day sucked the hardest ever... I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. A little bit less than nothing would go my way. I got up to toss my soiled sheets, the hallway was dark and I stubbed my big toe. It was then that I sensed the irony (burning me), then I heard the voice say, "Come sail aboard S.S. Nepenthe!" I suppose I'm to blame for getting pulled over. I guess I'm the culprit for running out of gas. Let's assume I'm the guy who didn't pay his 'Triple-A' fee. In actuality, I let the zetas probe me. Yesterday was all my fault. I let negativity get the better of me. Thank goodness for the bathtubs and suds! They temporarily set free this quandary |

Kiss me for the sky above Out From This cloud we are living on To send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off! Kill your doubts With the coldest of weapons Confidence No more words, OOooooooooo Just the sound of the splendour Tongues colliding ONE! MORE! TIME! Kiss me for the sky above Out From This cloud we are living on To send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off! Here I am, there you are On a wire connecting our eyes Theres a string, and it's tied, to a kite Theres a storm, in the sky Now the clouds become electric Here I am, there you are Collide! A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off A kiss to send us off! |

The evening began as a positive swaret and my abode was 4-2-0 G. But little did I know that in the very next apartment there'd be trouble on the brew for me! Ubiquitous I wish I could be because the clock cuts short my own day! One hundred things to do before I rest my sore ass upon the cushion that supports my array! Can this be? Trouble!!! So if I may, slip you a tip. You'd best stay away from 4-2-1. Trouble!!! So get high the green way. So get by the green way...yes! I knocked upon their door in hopes of bidding them their welcome and instead I was caught by an eye. His pupil was wide open kinda like a liquor barn at 3:00. It was indoubadoubly dose derived. It was then that they took me and shined their light between my eyes. He said "What are ya new? Why are you here? What's the catch? Why not explain in clear? Why you're peakin around?!" I wish I could've just kept to my own. My hospitality has been too well spent and I've paid my rent! I should've kept my thoughts, on who might've been inside so that my mind could sit and delude my pride! I beg my common sense to keep my neighbor out away from my front door until i find a way to hide myself from those in 4-2-1.......one ..one away from the good one. |

What if your brain, unexpectedly and suddenly, picked out things to flip around and view a lot differently? What if blue sky, All of a sudden turned a purple hue? We would shit a brick the size of all of it... What if? What if I was just daydreaming? What if I lived in a pear? What if my watch read 4:20 every hour, every day? You can bet your dollar I'd be happy! I forgot to remember; I forgot to remember my pain. Take me to your leader or die by the fly guy! What if mothballs, hangin' around too close to microwaves suddenly woke up and said, "Take me to your leader or die by fly guy! He'll push ya' out, no wings attached! Just do as I say, no mistake, he'll blow away. What if I was daydreaming? What if I lived in a pear? What if I had a mustard drenched cucumber tied to my leg and I did not want my pants to get dirty? What if this, what if that?! Go! I forgot to remember; I forgot to remember my pain Take me to your leader or die by the fly guy! I forgot to remember I forgot to remember my pain! my pain! Forgot to inject my...cocaine! Forgot to apply my...rogaine! Forgot to remember...my pain! I never think, I never thought, oh maybe I'm insane! I think I like being way the fuck out of my brain!

Medium, medium. Waking up I smell the scent of coffee on the brew, and I think about the amount of the sweet, I'd like to have in my cup today. One for the two lump, three lump, four. No half of one, no less no more. Just give me a chance, let me make it mine. I'd like a medium blend of that piece of pie. Not too bitter, not too sweet... Medium. Just enough to start my beat... Medium. Not too bitter, not too sweet... Medium. Just enough to ???... Medium. Dinner time just rolls around, and I think I crave a steak but, I'm not too partial to the meat, when it's cooked too long and I'm made to wait. Not too much of the parsley, and just enough of the spice. I think I'd enjoy a medium-rare dish with a side of fries. Not too tender, not too tough... Medium. Not too little, just enough... Medium. Not too tender, not too tough... Medium. Not too little, just enough... Medium. Medium. Medium. Medium. Medium. Just a medium. Medium. Thursday morning I smell the pits but, hell it ain't that bad. I could've sworn I bathed last week and scrubbed like a good lad I like to stink just a little bit, just to keep you on your toes yes. The more I stink the more I think, that you smell like a rose. Not too pleasant, not too bad... Medium. Just enough to hurt my dad...Medium. Not too pleasant, not too bad... Medium. Just enough to hurt my dad...Medium. Medium. Medium. Medium. Medium. Medium.

You took our lives away to increase your self esteem. An underlie in the public eye. Your dubbed insane if and when you try to speak your mind...IN YOUR OWN WAY! Ignore the past and... SPEAK FREE! You smashed glass eyes just to say, "It all is all that I need." ...............................SPEAK FREE! What you see is a reflection of my choice and what it means to me. Trapped in your cell.

So take your bias point of view away from my organic institution. And now we D.A.R.E. to think ourselves! The answer's waiting content. (Look into your mind and guide.) The answer's clear as day open your eyes! Now kill me. You killed the very thing that keeps us hanging on to our dear lives. So, in a sense you bit the hand that feeds us just to kill your prophet now. And with the coming generation at the torn seems this is what you call progress.. I call it shame! The answer's waiting content. (Look into your mind and guide.) The answers clear as day open your eyes! Now kill me. What his law says. What his law says. What his law says may not be the stepping stone for you! You killed the very thing that keeps us hanging on to our dear lives! |

Sink beneath the line little girl. Peak above the shrine them commoners were. Sink beneath the line little girl. Peak above the shrine them commoners were.

All I know is that she wanted to be part of the crowd. I could've told her she was welcome here, anywhere! But instead she combed the outskirts lookin inside and then she sat upon a bughill. This was when things started to get rough. An army-o-de-pinchers climbed their creepy ways right inside her 5-0-1 cut-offs and her skin took on a hue of a chemical unknown to me thats right! They were biting her beneath the line. She was a sitting on atop their shrine. I wish I could've warned her! "She should've worn underpants! Sink beneath the line little girl.

About a hundred years ago now, thought I was left for dead. Soliloquy, she was my... A picture, a wake, my metaphoric friend. So then I fell in love with an irony named life, it taught me this from that and... a picture, a wake, you're gonna be hilikus. History has a tendency to block yout the popular beliefs about the leaders of the time, so glisten with my syllables and ponder the thought, maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go! You've got to be, so good to be, You've got to be HILIKUS! So I took a walk out side with my new found friend and the knowledge imbibe. I figured I'd find another with the same attitude, yes, then maybe I could talk to someone other than myself! The doors are swinging wide open, a positive attitude and the ilk in my pocket had a lot to do with my new found friend, the hilikus. History has a tendency to block out the popular beliefs about the leaders of the time, so glisten with my syllables and ponder the thought, maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go! You've got to be, So good to be,You've got to be HILIKUS! So good to be,You've got to be HILIKUS! |

Hands on each other's hips Nothing in else in the world but one another The 42nd floor On a distant shore I wonder how we've strayed so far from this Remember when we were Just flesh and bone You sir may have forgotten how good your world can be So, put down your hollow tips And kiss your lovers lips And know that fate is what we make of it Please end this, please end this Before this ends us, ends us I wanna stay inside I wanna stay inside for good I wanna stay inside For good I read the news today And everything they say Just makes me want to stay inside and wait But the better part of me knows That waiting in the throws Is on par with reading with my eyes closed "What Can I do?", You say "It's just another day In the life of Apes with ego trips" Put down your hollow tips And kiss your lover's lips And know that fate is what we make of it Please end this, please end this Before this ends us, ends us I wanna stay inside I wanna stay inside for good I wanna stay inside For good I'm gonna stay inside I'm gonna stay inside for good I'm gonna stay inside For Good I wanna stay inside I wanna stay inside for good I wanna stay inside Don't want to stay inside for good |

★영국 소설가 조지 오웰(George Orwell)의 대표작 [1984]에서 영감을 받아 가사를 썼다는 'Talk Shows On Mute'에서는 오웰리즘(Orwellism), 즉 선전을 위한 사실의 왜곡과 조작에 관한 얘기를 담고 있는데, 조용하지만 냉소적인 톤으로 TV 매체에 대한 비판을 가하고 있다.

No you're not the first to fall apart,
but always the first one to complain. You better get careful, or you'll compromise everything you are. The world is a drought when out of love. Please come back to us you're all of the above. I'm making a choice to be out of touch. Leave me be he said. He said: Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world. Leave me here in my stark raving, sick, sad little world. I've never had unpaid confidantes, its more than I would care to explain. But I have an open door policy, when it comes to blame. The world is a joke when out of love.

The look on your face was priceless! Yes, the look on your face was priceless! That look it was So right Because of stairs The attic is ablaze!

I heard a word from 'on high'
Glare like a light in the sky It said, "quit blowing each other up" Voicing so crystaline clear Some thing's unclean in your ear When only blood will fill your cup Hello I'm trying to focus, but my eyes decieve me Focus I'm witnessing history...repeating It fell like a tear from my eye Flying machine so up high Well, there goes the neighborhood A scene set to singe innocence Upheave, unhinge, and pit against Like every made for TV movie should Hello I'm trying to focus, but my eyes decieve me Focus I'm witnessing history...repeating Focus. Focus. Focus. Focus. Focus. Focus! Focus!! Focus!!! (I can see now) We are, we know, we see, we think for you! The who, the what, the when, the where, the why! We build your yang, we build you too, we see you! Hello I'm trying to focus, but my eyes decieve me Focus I'm witnessing history...repeating |

Met my match today
Felt the blood rushing and mingling A curious and enigmatic thing Now spiders in my dreams... Synchronicity weaves like a web When you were meant to be a meal! I want you bad! I want you bad! I understand why they say, "High school never ends" (I'll) never act my age (But) you can tell by the lines in my smile That I have been around for awhile So, insecurities Are about as useful as trying To put the pin back in the grenade I want you bad! I want you bad! I understand why they say, "High school never ends" I want you bad! I want you bad! I understand why they say, "High school never STOPS" This isn't coincidence There's no such thing This isn't coincidence, no, no, no, This isn't coincidence It's no such thing. This isn't, no I want you bad! I want you bad! I understand why they say, "High school never ends" I want you bad! I want you bad! I understand why they say, "High school never ends" |

Participants all in black and white You enter in full blown technicolor Nothing is the same after tonight If the world would fall apart In a fiction worthy wind I wouldn't change a thing now that you're here Yeah, love is a verb here in my room You enter and close the door behind you Now show me the world seen from the stars If only the lights would dim a little I'm weary of eyes upon my scars If the world would fall apart In a fiction worthy wind I wouldn't change a thing now that you're here Yeah, love is a verb here in my room Pink tractor beam into your incision Head spining as free as dervishs' whirl I came here expecting next to nothing So thank you for being that kind of girl |

Does it make you indie?
Does it make you proud? To talk the world into a paper bag Spotty stain of "I'm ok, you're not ok" Yes, men too could be on the rag I'm in over my head, I need a pick-me-up Its easy to get high when you're standing on our backs, man Would anything ever be good enough for you? Stand on your own, hold your water if you can The ride's over. Did you enjoy yourself? The ride's over. Fairing well? The ride's over. Did you enjoy yourself? The ride's over. Fairing well? Not on my time It isn't fair to mention, but it awes the crowd Your fictional, plastic alibi So take another hit, steal another line Did you ever meet a leech who was good at goodbyes? When you were down i always picked you up Why didn't I recognize that everything was never fine? I'm kicking myself that i shared spit with you So fuck yourself And fuck this bleeding heart of mine The ride's over. Did you enjoy yourself? The ride's over. Fairing well? The ride's over.

OK… now the monster is awake.
It won’t rest until there’s nothing left. Maybe ever & anon I forget about the pain. Someone bending light comes along & flowers lean towards the sun. Some people fall in love & touch the sky Some people fall in love & find quicksand. I hover somewhere in between… I swear… I can’t make up my mind. |

Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast to truth I don`t want to lose what I had as a boy My heart still has a beat But love is now a feat As common as a cold day in LA Sometimes when I`m alone I wonder, is there a spell that I am under Keeping me from seeing the real thing? Love hurts But sometimes it`s a good hurt And it feels like I`m alive... Love sings When it transcends the bad things Have a heart and try me Cause without love I won`t survive.. I`m fettered and abused I stand naked and accused Should I surface this one man submarine? I only want the truth So tonight we drink to youth I`ll never lose what I had as a boy Sometimes when I`m alone I wonder is there a spell that I am under Keeping me from seeing the real thing? Love hurts But sometimes it`s a good hurt And it feels like I`m alive.. Love sings When it transcends the bad things Have a heart and try me Cause without love I won`t survive... without love I won`t survive..

Mend this careless thread
It's gone askew (Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet) Or pull and see how much we can undo (Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet) On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best Depending on where you're standing And how much breath is in your chest If it came down to it Would you high-tail home and hide? Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride? Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew (Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet) Or pull and see how much we can undo (Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet) At the heart of it all That innermost, your fiery core There's an amassing armor and it's building you into a bore Life's a match in a gas tank Don't ever mourn the ebbing tide Just dance on fire and enjoy the ride Hey! Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew (Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet) Or pull and see how much we can undo (Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet) (Thanks to ...*charmaine*... for these lyrics) |

Pardon Me While I burst
Pardon Me While I burst (INTRO) A decade ago, I never thought I would be, At twnety-three, on the verge of spontaneous combustion. Wow-is-me. But I guess that it comes with a the territory, An omnious landscape of never-ending calamity. I need you to hear, I need you to see That I have had all I can take and Exploding seems like a definate possibility to me. So pardon me while I burst into flames. I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games. So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame. Pardon me, pardon me... No never be the same. (CHORUS) Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees. I said, "I can relate," cause lately I've been thinking of combustion action. As a welcomed vacation from the burdens of the planet Earth. Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D... But thinking so much differently. Pardon me while I burst into flames. I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games. So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame. Pardon me, pardon me... I'll never be the same. Never be the same… yeah Pardon me while I burst into flames Pardon me… Pardon me … Pardon me So Pardon me while I burst into flames. I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games. So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame. Pardon me, pardon me... I'll never be the same. Pardon me… Never be the same… yeah |

If I hadn't made me I would've been made somehow If I hadn't assembled myself I'dve fallen apart by now If I hadn't made me I'd be more inclined to bow Powers that be would have swallowed me up But that's more than I can allow If you let them make you They'll make you papier-mache At a distance you're strong Until the wind comes Then you crumble and blow away If you let them fuck you There will be no foreplay But rest assured They'll screw you complete Til' your ass is blue and grey You should make amends with you If only for better health But if you really want to live Why not try and Make Yourself? If I hadn't made me I'dve fallen apart by now I won't let em' make me It's more than I can allow So when I make me I won't be papier-mache And if I fuck me I'll fuck me in my own way You should make amends with you If only for better health But if you really want to live Why not try and Make Yourself?

Thirteen suited strangers makes a crowded elevator slow And I've got a million words and phrases on the tip of my tongue For the only non stranger next to me Soon she'll know, know, know, so let 'em stare If I could think, I would give in And let you in on how I feel Need to spill, let all of it out right now And expose every inch in front of them Twelve more floors, your eyes and mine are all I need to come clean Or should I wait for the lobby And spare the lives of some 26 nervous eyes Being occupied by little red numbers passing by If I wait one minute longer, I think I will die, die, die, it isn't fair If I could think, I would give in And let you in on how I feel Need to spill, let all of it out right now And expose every inch in front of them If I could think, I would give in And let you in on how I feel Need to spill, let all of it out right now And expose every inch in front of them, front of them You help me to feel, see and know Why all the while I've been so impatient I can't go back 'cause now I know how it feels to open up and breathe I can't go back 'cause now I, I can't go back 'cause now I I can't go back 'cause now I, I can't go back 'cause now I know If I could think, I would give in And let you in on how I feel Need to spill, let all of it out right now And expose every inch in front of them Yeah, in front of them In front of them, in front of them |

Favorite Things
I'm thinking of my soul's sovereignty And I know everything you hate in me Fill me up with over-pious badgerings To throw them up, oh, one of my favorite things Remember all the lessons fed to me? Me the young sponge, so ready to agree Years have gone, I recognize the walking dead Now aware that I'm alive and way ahead Too bad the things that make you mad Are my favorite things And I'm so happy I see you looking, I know that you're thinking That I'll never go anywhere The things that I've done and the things That I've seen, I don't really expect you to care |

Pardon Me While I burst
Pardon Me While I burst (INTRO) A decade ago, I never thought I would be, At twnety-three, on the verge of spontaneous combustion. Wow-is-me. But I guess that it comes with a the territory, An omnious landscape of never-ending calamity. I need you to hear, I need you to see That I have had all I can take and Exploding seems like a definate possibility to me. So pardon me while I burst into flames. I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games. So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame. Pardon me, pardon me... No never be the same. (CHORUS) Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees. I said, "I can relate," cause lately I've been thinking of combustion action. As a welcomed vacation from the burdens of the planet Earth. Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D... But thinking so much differently. Pardon me while I burst into flames. I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games. So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame. Pardon me, pardon me... I'll never be the same. Never be the same… yeah Pardon me while I burst into flames Pardon me… Pardon me … Pardon me So Pardon me while I burst into flames. I've had enough of the world that is people's mindless games. So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame. Pardon me, pardon me... I'll never be the same. Pardon me… Never be the same… yeah |

Wish You Were Here
I dig my toes into the sand The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket I lean against the wind Pretend that I am weightless And in this moment I am happy...happy I wish you were here..x4 I lay my head on to the sand The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it I'm counting UFO's I signal them with my lighter And in this moment I am happy...happy I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here Wish you were here The world's a roller coaster and I am not strapped in Maybe I should hold with care but my hands are busy in the air saying, I wish you were here I wish you were I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here Wish you were here |
