Then against my better judgment I went walking out that door
I smiled at one person then I nodded to three more One man asked me for a dollar, I asked him what it's for? He said, "I have seen them." I said, "Okay, it's yours." And as featured on the MTV, the local high school lets out And the town becomes anarchy Parties are crashed, skid marks are measured The story's in the paper, you may read it at your leisure Get out, eject Escape from the Prison Planet Get out, eject Escape from the Prison Planet And to the tune of a billion dollars I supplied to the D.O.E. Some tasty little nuggets of alien technology And as one might expect, I've been harassed for years The Men In Black have been bending my ear As a matter of fact, they were just here today But I escaped them through a secret passageway Once I lived there for one thousand days Get out, eject Escape from the Prison Planet Get out, eject Escape from the Prison Planet I have plans for the future, guess they're futuristic plans Move out west and buy some desert lands Or maybe up North, just past Alaska You know nothing of this if they ask you Red Rover, Red Rover, Bob Lazar's coming over So honey clear the airstrip and light up that stove By Jove, I think it's started, oh yeah Escape from the Prison Planet Billion people harvest on Mars Rebuild the remnants of the obelisk One mile from the pyramid Escape From the Planet of the Apes Go forth, ad infinitum Return the relics to the elephants And Atlantis rises Get out, eject Escape from the Prison Planet Ejector seat ignite Billion people harvest on Mars Rebuild the remnants of the obelisk One mile from the pyramid Escape From the Planet of the Apes Go forth, ad infinitum Return the relics to the elephant And Atlantis rises |

Day of the jackalope Abandon all ye faithful Abandon all ye hope Abandon all ye faithful It's the day of the jackalope Well, I heard about your problems With your old man Well, he's a non-issue As fast as I can Day of the jackalope Abandon all ye people Abandon all ye hope Abandon all ye people It's the day of the jackalope Well, the leaves blow in circles In my footsteps Like the mouth of a river I have no regrets Day of the jackalope Abandon all ye people Abandon all ye hope Abandon all ye people It's the day of the jackalope |

Under dogwood blooms
Miss widow on her loom Eating peaches & cream Observer hums a haunting melody You've got an easy breezy wind at your back Most of the time If you do not understand very few do So don't feel bad Easy breezy beautiful colored world I'm in love with you R-O-Y-G-B-I-V Your colors are a comedy Woman waiting for dawn After the deer are gone Dandelions holding dew As indigo brightens to blue You've got an easy breezy wind at your back Most of the time If you do not understand very few do So don't feel bad Easy breezy beautiful colored world I'm in love with you R-O-Y-G-B-I-V Your colors are a comedy |

Went out the back of Halifax
All the way to Virginia, Fairfax It wasn't weird enough So I went west to Oregon All I, All I wonder While I run Is what's, is what's Next on my agenda I made a ruckus with a succubus Before she knew I was amphibious She threw her hands up and started to scream "Man you look like your straight outta V." All I, all I wonder While I run Is what's, is what's Next on my agenda (spoken) And so it was that I, a wayward throwback to the Mesozoic, was enslaved as a circus freak to entertain you drunken monkeys. But Fate still had her twisted sense of humor and she granted me safe passage to sunny Florida, where for over the past 300 years now I have been breeding with an unheard of efficiency. And soon my progeny will rise up and say "Hail Draco, king of the dragon men!" I fashion my crown from Quetzlcoatl's quills Build my palace in the jungles of Brazil In the summertime come my children "For I hail Draco, king of dragon men!" I fashion my crown from Quetzlcoatl's quills Build my palace in the jungles of Brazil In the summertime come my children "For I hail Draco, king of dragon men!" |

You look so good while you're riding
On your pterodactyl Storming castles with abandon And rainbows by fistfuls Now lets go dancing madly backwards While on a sea of air Everyone I hear is saying Captain Peon will be there When we go carelessly careening quickly Screaming all the way Gravity is such a drag And we will not obey Carelessly careening quickly Screaming all the way Gravity is such a drag Now we will have our way Wasn't I? Or was it shadow? A trick of light in play Leaving me to see that I saw The garden from whence we came But I'm not saying anything That hasn't been said before You may hear it now if you wish to Put an ear against the floor Then we go carelessly careening quickly Screaming all the way Gravity is such a drag And we will not obey Carelessly careening quickly Screaming all the way Gravity is such a drag Now we will have our way Now we will have it! On the hills of charming dragons There is snow falling everywhere Sorcerers bring a new Sun And we will soon be there Then we go carelessly careening quickly Screaming all the way Gravity is such a drag And we will not obey Carelessly careening quickly Screaming all the way Gravity is such a drag Now we will have our way Now we will have it! |

Dig a slow hole to China
Like a Bangkok miner No turn un-stoned I tremble Hold my candle's handle Mama always said "You better come home" Stuck in the mud Dug a slow hole My blue cow Gotta get her back here somehow My brown bag Never gonna guess what I have Mama always said "You better come home" Stuck in the mud Dug a slow hole If it's too shallow then dig it more deep If it's too narrow then dig it more wide If you see a point of light Shake hands with the other side If it's too shallow then dig it more deep If it's too narrow then dig it more wide If you see the point of light Shake hands with the other side A lighthouse in Kentucky Oh I should be so lucky Sell fill dirt to the groundlings And water to the drowning Mama always said "You better come home" Stuck in the mud Dug a slow hole |

I have a story, a bitter anthem for everyone to hear,
about this kid who just don't like me and that's a solid fact. They say he's hunting me and as you see I'm all swelled up with fear cuz I can't get him off my back. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You tried to fight me down at Tyler's beach and man I think that's great. You nearly cried and said to yell at you like I do at all the girls. Then you drove home real quick, did you make it in time to masturbate? There's one too many of you in this world. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You say its chivalry, well its jealousy that led us to this song. Won't play it often just at least until you're gone. You'll stop at nothing but the real thing and everything up to that's pretend. You tried to brainwash all my friends. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. Fuck you Jordan, fuck you Jordan, You make me sick, you make me sick High school's over, high school's over I don't care if you dye your hair, You'll always be a little redhead bitch |

Climbing out of the sky a man who could fly
And a painting anyone could play It's a comic book crush that taught you to trust Staring out of the stands at a rock n' roll band And a hero no one else could save It was never much but it's all that you gave And I wonder if you wonder, or did your stars finally explode? Did the thunder pull you underneath the haze? I'm amazed, than I let go Little minds let little games burn big old dreams with little flames And you don't think I understand Little holes in parachutes won't leave you falling If they do, it's because you want to land Climbing out of his chair to fix the T.V. glare is a man But no one knows he's there It's a Dramamine dream that kept them alive but lost She's got her plastic friends and a brand new Benz and she laughs Hell, sometimes life ain't fair It's a comic book crush that got them nowhere And I wonder if you wonder, or did your stars finally explode? Did the thunder pull you underneath the haze? I'm amazed, than I let go Little minds let little games burn big old dreams with little flames And you don't think I understand Little holes in parachutes won't leave you falling If they do, it's because you want to land These elevator doors are closing again you leave before I planned I taste you walking down the hall You left your perfume on the nightstand |

Your grand dad left home for the circus. He was young just like me,
with hope to explore. He married a girl in Virginia. She could swing the trapeze; they could sleep on the floor. Your mother was born in December, on the one sunny day that winter gave up. She had warm summer eyes that flickered like fireflies, when she stared at the world. So why do you leave these stories unfinished, my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in your eyes? Why do you look when you've already found it? What did you find that could leave you walking by? She was raised in a New England village. Then she moved to LA with her firefly stare, and you loved sunset strip when it sparkled, you grew up and you sparkled but why don't you care? So why do you leave these stories unfinished, my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in your eyes? Why do you look when you've already found me? What did you find that could leave you walking by? And these nights I get high just from breathing. When I lie here with you I'm sure that I'm real, like that firework over the freeway. I could stay here all day but that's not how you feel. So why do you leave these questions unanswered? The circus awaits and you're already gone. My Cheshire cat doorstop with fear in your smile, what makes it so easy for you to be walking by? And what did I do that you can't seem to want me? Why do we lie here and whisper goodbyes? Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me? What makes it so easy for you to be walking by? |

I'd fly you a flag, I'd bury this pen into my veins I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you The telephone number I got for you says nobody's home The best thing I can think to do right now is leave it alone And you had an apology in your mailbox since last July It's funny when you find the words to say you find no reply I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you Scream my name just one more time But I won't make you I won't make you And it's been hours now To be here like this And just to lay you down And just to taste your lips And just to keep me up God I'm tired of sleeping And just to lay inside you And just to know this feeling I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you Scream my name just one more time But I won't make you I won't make you |

It's a good year for a murder
She's praying to Jesus She's pulling the trigger There's no tears Cause he's not here She washes her hands And she fixes the dinner But soon they'll be coming to rush her away No one's so sure if her crime had a reason But reasons like seasons they constantly change And the seasons of lies still like reasons are flowing, away Away with this spilled milk? Away with this dirty dishwater? Away Seventeen years and all that he gave was a daughter It's me and the moon she says I got no trouble with that And I am a butterfly but you wouldn't let me die It's me and the moon she says And it's over, it just started The blood stained the carpet Her heart like a crystal She's lucid and departed A life left behind she can find in her mind, gone away Away with these nightmares Away with suburbia shakedown Away You marry a role and you give up your soul till you break down It's me and the moon she says I got no trouble with that And I am a butterfly but you wouldn't let me die It's me and the moon she says But what do you say we go for a ride What do you say we get high But I'm so tired of days that feel like the night It's me and the moon she says I got no trouble with that And I am a butterfly but you wouldn't let me die And I am a butterfly but you wouldn't let me die And I am a butterfly And I am a butterfly And I am a butterfly |

She's praying to Jesus, she's pulling the trigger There's no tears, cause he's not here She washes her hands and she fixes the dinner, But soon they'll be coming to rush her away And no ones so sure if her crime had a reason The reasons like seasons They constantly change, And the seasons of last year Like reasons have floated away Away with this spilled milk Away with this dirty dish water, away Seventeen years and all that he gave was a daughter ""It's me and the moon,"" she says ""And I've got no trouble with that, but I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die"" ""It's me and the moon,"" she says And it's over, but just started The blood stained the carpet Her heart like a crystal She's lucid and departed A life left behind, she can find in her mind gone away Away with these nightmares Away with suburbia Shake down away You marry a role and You give up your soul til you break down ""It's me and the moon,"" she says ""And I've got no trouble with that, But I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die"" ""It's me and the moon,"" she says But what do you say we go for a ride? What do you say we get high? But I'm so tired of days that feel like the night ""It's me and the moon,"" she says ""And I've got no trouble with that, And I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die I am a butterfly, I am a butterfly, I am a butterfly"" |

Another lonely night in Amsterdam
The stars were coming out in waves And I miss my Miss America from the Park Hotel But I'm too stoned to call today And when everything you've wanted Is hard to hide behind your eyes Am I'm locked in my hotel room turning over our good-byes I will write this down for you So you can read it I will hold my breath for you Til' I can't feel it Another lonely night in Amsterdam The water moving through the sound Of the blood thats boiling in my veins And the food I can't keep down And I don't care if you don't love me And I don't care if you don't change And I could live inside these shadows that I cast for you If it meant that you would stay And I'll be home before the morning comes And you won't have to be alone I will write this down for you So you can read it I will hold my breath for you Til' i can't feel it You won't have to see me this way 'Cause this way I'm okay I will write this down I will write this down Oh love, I'm tangled up again Oh love, when does this twisting end? When does this twisting end? I will write this down for you So you can read it I will hold my breath for you Til' I can't feel it You don't have to see me this way 'Cause this way I'm okay I will write this down for you So you could read it |

This is the only lonely picture
Waiting on my floor Littering my shore This is the last true burning letter Given to a girl Written by a boy Living in a world created to destroy But if I built you a city, would you let me? Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then And I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, well at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me And this is your ghost that kneels before me Razors on her tongue, a body full of oxygen It wont be the last time she'll ignore me The thinning of my skin, without the strength to go The winter's setting in, to cover you in snow But if I built you a city, would you let me? Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then And I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, well at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me, yeah And Il'l raise towers and Climb them Rivers and walk them Oceans to drown in You won't make a sound in But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then And I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, well at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me |

Is this a quiet place where you should be alone? Is this where the tortured and the troubled find their own? I don't know, But I can tell this isn't you your cover's blown. But oh no, Don't you dare hang up this phone. Hey. Give me space so I can breathe. Give me space so I can sleep. Give me space so you can drown in this with me. In this place, The lonely escapade in outer space. There's no antidote for irony you say, That you have, When you know, That you don't. And you say, That you can, When you know, That you won't. Hey. Give me space so I can breathe. Give me space so I can sleep. Give me space so you can drown in this with me. Hey. Give me space but I can't breathe. Give me space but I can't sleep. Give me just one inch I swear that's all I need. Oh. These battered walls and TV screens; Sometimes they make me want to scream. Ah. Hey. Give me space so I can breathe. Give me space so I can sleep. Give me space so you can drown in this with me. Hey. Give me space but I can't breathe. Give me space but I can't sleep. Give me just one inch I swear that's all I need. |

I'm lost at sea,
The radio is jamming but they wont find me, I swear its for the best And then your frequency is pulling me in closer Til I'm home. And I've been up for days I finally lost my mind And then I lost my way. I'm blistered but I'm better and I'm home. And I will crawl, theres things that aren't worth giving up I know. But I won't let this get me I will fight. You live the life you're given with the storms outside somedays all I do is watch the sky. This room's too small, it's only getting smaller I'm against the wall, I'm slowly getting taller here in Wonderland. This guilt feels so familiar and I'm home. And I will crawl, theres things that aren't worth giving up I know. But I won't let this get me I will fight.

I'm lost at sea,
The radio is jamming but they wont find me, I swear its for the best And then your frequency is pulling me in closer Til I'm home. And I've been up for days I finally lost my mind And then I lost my way. I'm blistered but I'm better and I'm home. And I will crawl, theres things that aren't worth giving up I know. But I won't let this get me I will fight. You live the life you're given with the storms outside somedays all I do is watch the sky. This room's too small, it's only getting smaller I'm against the wall, I'm slowly getting taller here in Wonderland. This guilt feels so familiar and I'm home. And I will crawl, theres things that aren't worth giving up I know. But I won't let this get me I will fight. You live the life you're given with the storms outside somedays all I do is watch the sky, Somedays all I do is watch the sky. I think I, I could use a little break, today was a good day.

At Cavanaugh Park
Where I used to sit all alone in the dark And dream about things that I cannot say you always said destiny'd blow me away and nothing's gonna blow me away At Cavanaugh Park Where you used to take me to play in the sand And said to me, ""Son, one day you'll be a man And men can do terrible things."" Yes they can And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change At Cavanaugh Park We used to get high Watching teams as they fought They loved my friend Adam But he always got caught Man, that kid made fucking up look cool Aren't we all so cool now? no And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change Never do change Never do change Never do change At Cavanaugh Park Where I used to think that my life would be good And I would do things that I thought that I should And no one's gonna tear me down And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change Never do change Never do change |

Globes and maps they chart your way back home Do you wanna leave or something? Dreams came around you In a hazy rain You open your mouth wide to feel them fall And I write a letter from a one-way train But I don't think you'll read it at all Globes and maps are all around me now I wanna feel you breathe me in Globes and maps I see surround you here Why won't you believe me? Globes and maps they chart your way back home Do you wanna leave or something? I can't take this anymore I know that I can't take this anymore I can't take this anymore Cause I know someday I'll see you walk out that door Globes and maps are all around me now I wanna feel you breathe me in Globes and maps I see surround you here Why won't you believe me?

Shake down you make me break
For goodness sake I think I'm on the edge Of something new with you Shout out don't drown the sound I'll drown you out You'll never scream so loud As I want to scream with you Standing there with your smile blinding Your eyes from seeing My face as I'm dying To figure out a girl But she drifts so far away I'm on her coast So maybe I should stay And map around your world So Don't Say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain But the wind went and pulled me Into your hurricane Into your hurricane Stand up don't make a sound Your ears might bleed There's sweet fluorescent enemies That live inside of me The world moves faster than I knew Not fast enough to not creep up on you And the space we put between So pull me under your weather patterns Your cold fronts and the rain don't matter Because the sun burns when I need it So Don't Say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain But the wind went and pulled you Into the hurricane into the hurricane You don't do it on purpose But you make me shake Now I count the hours 'til you wake With your babies breath Breathe symphonies Come on sweet catastrophe Well, Maybe this time I can follow through i can feel complete Stop paying dues Stop the rain from falling Keep my ocean calm This time I know nothings wrong So Don't Say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain But the wind went and pulled me in and no you don't say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain but the wind went and pulled me into your hurricane into your hurricane into your hurricane |

Standing on the edge of morning,
scent of sex and New Found Glory playing as she's pulling back her hair. She drives away, she's feeling worthless; used again, but nothing's different. She'd stay the night but knows he doesn't care. At home by three; a deafening quiet. The porch light's off, guess they forgot it. She'd cry herself to sleep but she don't dare. And she wants to be a model, She wants to hear she's beautiful. She's beautiful. I want to save you, I want to save you. (Yeah) I need you to save me too. I want to save you. Dressed by dawn and out the door, no lights, she memorized the floors so she could leave without being detected. She works till three; it's uniform, she dreams that he'll come by the store. She prays for days when boys mean she's protected. And she wants someone to see her, She needs to hear she's beautiful. She's beautiful. I want to save you I want to save you. (Yeah) I need you to save me too. I want to save you. And she won't sleep. (and she won't sleep) She won't sleep, and she won't sleep at all. I want to save you I want to save you. (Yeah) I need you to save me too. I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you |

I have a story, a bitter anthem for everyone to hear,
about this kid who just don't like me and that's a solid fact. They say he's hunting me and as you see I'm all swelled up with fear cuz I can't get him off my back. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You tried to fight me down at Tyler's beach and man I think that's great. You nearly cried and said to yell at you like I do at all the girls. Then you drove home real quick, did you make it in time to masturbate? There's one too many of you in this world. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You say its chivalry, well its jealousy that led us to this song. Won't play it often just at least until you're gone. You'll stop at nothing but the real thing and everything up to that's pretend. You tried to brainwash all my friends. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. Fuck you Jordan, fuck you Jordan, You make me sick, you make me sick High school's over, high school's over I don't care if you dye your hair, You'll always be a little redhead bitch |

So tell me, when you took a practice scholastic aptitude test, Did you know the answers or did you guess? You rely on gimmicks to amuse your fans, And act all over bad to jack up your sound scan. What's the matter with you? How come you rhyme monosyllabically? Has atrophy stricken your entire vocabulary? Your style's like a garbage can, It's meant to be taken out on a weekly basis. Ever since you first reckoned you been in a state of suspended animation. You invoke Snuffleupagus and australopithecus, Me cray, you abacus. But enough about you lets talk about me, And how single-handedly I redefined the entire science of radio astronomy, Even nobel prize winners questioned my notions of reality. Oh, but I digress, You play sorry, I play chess. Queen to B3, checkmate, Go get some percosets! Haha haha! Careful with that mic, weezy! Do you really think it's that easy? Mmm, this is really good ice cream, You want some of it? Oh, my bad, I didn't know you were lactose intolerant. Makes you pass gas, frightens all the girls away, Only friends you keep are those you pay. Always on the ready for the wack snack attack I carry sandwiches around in a straight edge style Jansport backpack. Got the gadget Q gave Bond, Destroy the mind, Make you jump in a pond, Go quack-quack, Flap your arms, Leave you confused but completely unharmed. Haha haha! Careful with that mic, weezy! Do you really think it's that easy? Do you really think it's true? They'll Listen but they can't hear you. Haha haha! Now look here, Both you and I know the past ten years have been rather intense, And I'm ashamed to admit that I have been fooled by the seductions of violence, People walking around with ugly auras, Sometimes I'm even tempted to see the advice of Dr. Laura... But I ignore her... And I take a deep breath and count to ten, Ain't gonna let it get under my skin, Take a deep breath and count to ten, Think of all the nice places that I've been. Like back when I was waging peace against the Visigoths, I was tutored in the ancient mystories by a wizened philosoph. Learned the polyrhythm of celestial time, And wait for the one to come and get it done and finish the rhyme. Haha! Careful with that mic, weezy! Do you really think it's that easy? Do you really think it's true? They'll listen but they can't hear you! Haha haha! Mmhmm mmhmm... Haha haha! Mmhmm mmhmm... Haha haha! Mmhmm mmhmm... Haha haha! |

Pan-amoebic algebra, breed bizarre bacteria, what to do, oh what to do
Africanized killer bees, alabastar dieties, milk from spoons, sip milk from spoons Within the ruins against the firth The salamander has given birth Only red horse rainbows can save us Let them run wild and asunder Call the royal guard to let the people in Flaming arrows by hundreds Pull the bog man from the peat, stand him up on both his feet He jigs and reels, he jigs and reels Infiltrating silver crabs, carry a most scented flag, to their front lines, to their front lines Within the ruins Against the firth The salamander has given birth Only red horse rainbows can save us Let them run wild and asunder Call the royal guard to let the people in Flaming arrows by hundreds And now the salamander Run to the tower and call up the magus If he has caused this, we'll tear out his pages Throw 'im in shackles And remove his hands |

Old John Brown left Kansas before the blood had dried
And as he rode his head did shine like the sun in mid-July. In a tiny farm house by Brunswick piano He warmed his boots by the fireplace and read aloud from Samuel. David rose to beat the Philistines with five smooth stones and a sling. One October morning his army did approach The armory that sat between the Potomac and Shenandoah. The engine house flung open with report of several guns When it was done he looked upon the bodies of his dying sons. David rose to beat the Philistines, with five smooth stones and a sling. Throughout our history there are those ghosts Compelled to illustrate our dreams and hopes Victors hang in pictures, losers from ropes. Regardless they all swing in the same boat. Yeah....yeah, yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah In Southampton County 'round 1831 Nat Turner prayed and the cornstalks swayed A voice rose up and a text was raised. In the planter's steak house they went from room to room When it was done they rode along to liberate Jerusalem. David rose to beat the Philistines, with five smooth stones and a sling. Throughout our history there are those ghosts Compelled to illustrate our dreams and hopes Victors hang in pictures, losers from ropes. Regardless they all swing in the same boat. |

Once again I'm denied my choice.
Once around the stump, then twice across the ceiling, now eight times over Miss October is out for me. Believe me when I tell you she's all about destruction. It's just about enough to make a grown man cry. Good God Almighty we was panning for gold down at the banks of mighty Colorado, when all of a sudden came an awful sound; ten thousand buffalo were running us down. Once again I'm denied my joy. Sieves and peas, oh Lord, oh Lord! Thunder and lightning at a feverish pitch. Must be the workings of the Old West Witch. I crossed her once when I was just a youth. Been scared stiff ever since, to tell you the truth. Once again I'm denied my joy. Sieves and peas, oh Lord, oh Lord! She went once around the stump, then twice across the ceiling, now eight times over Miss October is out for me. Believe me when I tell you she's all about the voodoo. and all the things I'm losing when I pay no mind. Get off on the good foot and start another day. Maybe head for Hazel, California. Oh, but sooner or later she'll go to town sure as the Earth runs around and around. Again I'm denied my joy. Sieves and peas, oh Lord! At the side of the road a bundle of twine, and on it I found a note. It read, "You'll be running until the end of time." She went once around the stump, then twice across the ceiling, now eight times over Miss October is out for me. Believe me when I tell you she's all about destruction. It's just about enough to make a grown man cry. |

Won't you come over and stay for a while.
Take a seat, have a drink, we'd have a nice time. Turn on the TV i believe it's prime time. I'll make you chicken cacciatore in five. There's a woman down at 314 Who can't keep the stains on her kitchen floor clean. And there's a man thats been knocking on his own door for three years, Or has it been four? I don't want to spend the winter in this house all alone. Those neighbors of mine keep coming on over and playing with my mind. I would like to love you. I shure would treat you right, We could take the trash out every Thursday night. Here in my neighborhood there is the strangest thing- Green buckets every Friday at every driveway. They're filled with glasses, plastics and newspapers too. They say they recycle and bring them back to you. I would like to love you i should would treat you right, we could take the trash out every Thursday night. We coud be a fmaily, consume many goods. We could be the pillars of the neighborhood. Ah, babe, I"m a real hard worker. With the proper tools i'll make you anything you yearn for. The barbarians are at teh gate, come in before it's too late. I have food enough to last the two of us about a year. One thousand cans of chowder and one thousand cans of beer. I love my neighboors like I love my own brothers, But every year they are getting odder and odder. |

Went to the five and dime,
bought myself a copy of Time, and on the cover was a woman that I knew when I was excavating in the mountains of Peru. I caught a plane to L.I.A. I didn't know what I would say. Maybe she would like me, I had lost a lot of weight since she had last seen me in 1988. Went to a local bar and ordered a cerveza, asked a man about the woman on the cover, dijo, "Claro que si, es el presidente's daughter." Asked him where she might me, "You did not hear this from me. The girl is a terrorista en las montanas a Chuquibambilla." Took a bus through mountains. Oh, my head was pounding. Got to stay strong and carry on. Got to stay strong, it won't be long. Arrived in the villa surrounded by guerrillas. Then my girl took me in her arms. She said, "How have you been? Oh, but I'll see you again." I woke up in a coffin underneath an altar to the east of Machu Pichu. Crawled from the royal tomb. The sun was bright, it burned my eyes. I knew that she was gone so I went down to the riverside and I cried. I went down to the riverside I went down and I cried. Muchas veces, I don't know if I'm coming or I'm going. Muchas veces, I'm at a loss as what to do. Muchas veces, I don't know if I'm coming or I'm going. Muches veces, I'm at a loss as what to do. My friend said, "She's nothing but pain." I said, "I still love her the same. All she needs is a little bit of love and I'm sure I can make her change some." "What about that girl in Zaire that you met while a volunteer? She got quite the education and quite the pair of legs on her." "Oh, she married an Englishman, a correspondent for CNN. She thought he was rather handsome in a UN blue flak jacket. Oh, I see where your coming from, but for me there is no other one. I must be on my merry way." Went to the five and dime, bought myself a copy of Time, and on the cover was a woman that I knew claiming she was a kahuna down on Oahu. Caught a plane to H.I.A. The sun was bright, it burned my eyes. I knew that she was near because I felt shivers on my spine. I felt fine. |

Could've been a swan on a glassy lake.
Could've been a gull in a clipper's wake. Could've been a ladybug on a windchime, but she was born a dragonfly. In the sun she warmed her wings and listened to the cicadas sing. "The trees are all bending in one direction because of something..." Cross-pollination by the legs of bees in the spring is a beautiful thing. Oh when the sun goes down, the fireflies come out. In a pond crept a slimy thing that hummed a theme from the Rites of Spring. Pity the mate of Queen Mantis, so content, but so headless. Katydid nothing but shiver and cry, as did the dragonfly. In the shade the gypsies spin Among the cloves, they drop their skin. "...beyond the hedgegrove, over by the willows, deep in the shadows..." Regeneration occurs at a furious speed beneath the white oak tree. Oh when the sun comes up the moon buds fold up. In the sun she warmed her wings and listened to the Rites of Spring Could've been a swan on a glassy lake. Could've been a gull in a clipper's wake. Could've been a ladybug on a windchime, but she was born a dragonfly. "...ain't ever seen it, but i have heard it. Sounds like the millstones when they are turning, but every moment getting louder and louder, and then there is silence, and the smell of flowers." |

I'll keep pulling on the towpath.
You keep floating on the river. Yeah, until the day is done. Keep on keeping on the low road, Chesapeake and Ohio. Because on the higher ground you will find Elephant Riders to the northwest bring news from father. Looking like it's always closing, the Salty Dog is always open. Here, I got an I.O.U. Clickity clack clack, clickity clack clack, Baltimore and Ohio, Clickity clack clack, clickity clack clack, roll on, roll on. On our way to Washington where work is done by men with gavels, I heard a sound that just about removed me from my filly's saddle. Just outside of Antietam, where once there was a mighty battle, I heard the rhythm of the hammers beating the rail lines together. Elephant Riders to the northwest bring news from father. Don't be eating all the hard tack. Between we two there's half a small sack. Still, we got miles to. Giddy up pony, Giddy up pony, Camptown Race is five miles long.

Behind the Cliffside Inn,
I heard a fiddle and a mandolin, keeping rhythm on an old washboard and stomping on the floor. Saw people of all sorts dancing 'round in twos and fours, caroling about days of old, and what the future holds. In the middle was a big cauldron that they were stirring, stirring, and there were trees around that they kept burning, burning. I asked a toothless man who all these people were, and he said, "The soapmakers, and we are working, working." As they stirred Heaven and Earth, they combined to one, and everything was everyone and each one was all. As they stirred I heard a trumpet call, and everything was everyone and each one was all.

Standing waist high in snow,
what brought me here I do not know. Sky is filled with starry scenes of heroes and their greatest deeds. Satellites move across the sky, and every year they multiply. Father bear is sound asleep and will be so for several weeks. Across the plain I see a figure, every instant growing bigger. Instinct tells me to run away while faith proposes that I wave. He approaches to a rod. I whisper up a prayer to God. The stranger asks me with a grin, "Do you have the time my friend?" Himalaya is my old time stomping ground (oh yes, time is of the essence). Manitoba, better snows I've never found (oh yes, time is of the essence.) The author looms above his page and thinks it strange that at his age he can not find the proper words to describe his only world. One would think that in a life where no two snowflakes are alike one would have a brilliant rhyme for each and every bit of time. Himalaya is my old time stomping ground (oh yes, time is of the essence). Manitoba, better snows I've never found (oh yes, time is of the essence.) |
