Coming Down
01:56
|
|||
|
Seven hours no more no less
We'll spend it listening to Pixies' Best Of
And when you catch me with my cigarettes
I'll throw them out because I've finally quit now
Thank God I made it, it's summer now
I feel somewhat like a normal man
Let's drink all day and let our parents down
And count the short stories that we've penned
We don't live at home anymore
And we don't sing sad songs anymore
It was just one big scary dream and now we're waking up
Was just one bad high, now we're coming down
I'm sorry I'm leaving

The Neighbors
01:24
|
|||
|
I was watching the neighbors watching me
And I wondered why they came
I was watching the neighbors watching me
Your mother kept an eye
On the distance you kept from me
That her daughter kept from me
That her daughter kept from me
Pushed the record player off the shelf
And the vinyl records fell
And they cracked on the floor
|

Hungry
01:10
|
|||
|
Stood on the subway, was mulling it over
Then lied to police just to feel a bit older
If I was a lighthouse then you were a hospice
I was delighted that you tugged at my collar
You ran inside, dipped your hands in the mortar
Which dripped down my cheek as your hand slid across it
I go to bed hungry and wake up exhausted
I care too much to tell you that I've lost it
|

Ski Mask
01:51
|
|||
|
You stood in overalls and proved you could fly
Straddling a high wire just to prove you were something
I watched the new moon eclipsing the old one
Our town bathed in light as you incubated me
|
||||
5. |
||||
|
Sorry I'm leaving
If you want me to go, I'll go
I'd rather I'd go
I'm so embarrassed that I never sleep
And I'm so ashamed that I never eat
|

Smile On Me
01:38
|
|||
|
Where's my heart live
Above it all, above it all
Where's my head live
Below my heart
Yeah below my heart
Below it, below it
All I really want now's to make you feel good
To make you feel nice
All I really want is for you to smile on me
Smile on me
Smile on me
Really though I think now I have it all
|

Am I Sick?
02:21
|
|||
|
It's just, never mind
I do this every time
I fall back in line
And you come back to me each time
And this is how I live
I know it can't all be good
You've got me wrapped around your finger
As you should
Seven hours no more no less
Am I sick?
So this is how it ends
With a whimper, with a bang
I still feel sick
Every day I take another lick
|

Good Boy
01:35
|
|||
|
I know I haven't been a good boy for you
God knows I've tried, given my gene pool
I know I haven't been the best friend to you
Lord knows I've tried, like I'm supposed to do
When you fly away to Europe for good
Will you love me again, like you used to do?

Michael
02:31
|
|||
|
It's all so trying
To be tested like I've been
And I sleep so little still
I'm singing over and over in my head:
"I'll wait it out. I've already waited a thousand years
So I'll wait it out with another pack of cigarettes"
I live in boredom
I miss those little things
I miss my capsules
I miss my Mike O'Din

Gingerbread
01:35
|
|||
|
You return and flatter me
Now always part of me
Leave the gingerbread
You delivered to me
Fragrance brings all your gifts
Loving me like I deserve

Giving You Shit
01:26
|
|||
|
All the time I'm learning about you
One more time I'll live to see it through
I hate it, I'm always giving you shit
One more fit and then I'm over it
I have time to turn the act around
But it's mine, I'm the only one who can
I have time to turn my life around
And it's me, the only one who can
|

Cowboy
01:24
|
|||
|
Listen up, man
Got a number in my head
We've got a cowboy on our hands
Cut him
Lotta blood in him
That'll teach the kid to sin
That'll teach the boy to win
Cut him
Cowboy

Need Coffin
01:45
|
|||
|
I touch down, we frolic
I live out of my wallet
She's so pissed, she called it
So burnt out, need coffin
Good on you, you felled a dream
Good on you, you need no scene
Good on you, you love it so
Good on you, always low
|

Mire in My Home
01:26
|
|||
|
I know that the cognitive expense is draining for you
It's draining for me too
It's not how I planned things to be
I know leaving me behind is okay for you
It's okay with me too
If that's what you need, I'll give it to you
I know that the mire in my home
Makes it seem like I'm done
Shut off with no fun
It's cool for me, cause I'd like to be
Someone painted in a picture and hung in a frame
Polished every day
I'd like to see if I could live that way

I'm livid
You know I try hard
I'm watching it
You know I'll lie for ya

Masha
01:28
|
|||
|
Thinkin bout my past life
Wasn't such a nice guy
Volunteered to let those hipsters get a tear out of me
Til I finally told them fuck them with a sigh of relief
I'm weeping in the cut
Cause God won't let me get high
Masha says "Don't sweat it" and "I'll see you next week"
Think she's pretty so I tell her, then I feel like a creep
Walking home, feel less pain
I give Masha $80 cause she helps me stay sane

Envelope
01:17
|
|||
|
Took your hand
Licking an envelope, sent it off
To the other side of the world
I grabbed your hand in my head and I held it tight
Then I woke and my sheets were all ruffled right
Just right as if you had been laying there
And I'm still seeing strands of your jet black hair
I'm hearing violins everywhere that I go
And your timbering voice is all I know
Rumbling wind turbines silence in the dead of night
How I wish you were smiling here by my side
I want to be having fun with you soon
Having fun like we both used to
|

Magazine
01:16
|
|||
|
Left to rot in a magazine
And you tell us all you're getting clean
Well that's something that I don't see happening
Everyone knows the truth
They know that you like cutting loose
And you can't get your act together
You call him up then you cop a bit
Then you just do not give a shit
While we're all here worried to death
|

Paranoid
01:16
|
|||
|
I'm paranoid for now
Will we fix me, will I cut it out
I'm paranoid for now
Will you fix me? Will I fix things

Julie Christie, the rumors are true
As the pages turn, my eyes are glued
To the movie star and his sordid life
Mr. X and his long-suffering wife
I spent so much time dreaming about Eleanor Bron
In my room with the curtains drawn
See her in the arms of Paul
Saying "I can say no more"
As the music swells somehow stronger from adversity
Our hero finds his inner peace
So now I'm looking for a lucky charm
With a needle hanging out of its arm
As time goes by I know it's gonna happen
I know it's going away
Gonna take its toll, gonna take its toll
Gonna take my time
And I'm thinking about the way things are
And I'm thinking about the way things were
Thinking about Eleanor Bron
And I'm thinking about a lucky charm
And I'm thinking about the needle
Oh, I'm thinking about the needle
And I'm thinking about...
|
||||
22. |
||||
|
Wish you could feel my heart racing down the street
Through tangled wires, into you screen
Too excited to sleep
So have sweet dreams and I'll meet you there
Chest is pounding I can't stop smiling
You exhaust me in the best possible way

A Picture Postcard
02:35
|
|||
|
Don't forget to kiss me if you're really going to leave
Couldn't you take the second bus home?
Couldn't you just take me with you?
Couldn't you take the second bus home?
If I put my hands to your stomach
Or put my lips to your hand
Birmingham has gone to motors, motors
Take me home, take me home, take me home
Keep your eyes on the road, on the road, on the road, on the road
And I'm convinced that you're from Mars
And I'm convinced that you're from Mars

This is Your Welcome Mat
04:40

Every time that I try to compensate for your teary eyes I break out the birthday cakes and the apple pies, but I know they won't last for long. I'm fond of happy; I'll sing you up a smile. I hope it's catchy, I hope it's easy on your ears but smiles are easier than frowns. So quit your frowning.
Every time that I still can't believe you're doubting, hiding around behind the sky but I can't see through to your eyes. So here's a box of candy and a bouquet of security. We'll break off that last defense. Things could be worse.
Don't be scared; I will never leave you alone. I'm yours, I'm ready, just...

Get down
With legs tied up and how
Let me see you down on the ground right now
I woke up and thought why not
Busted in then I took my shot
Your arms are bent back for now
Keep your head down on the ground
Busted open and I say and how
