Melt

I'll give back your pogo stick as soon as you return my wasted time. and then i'll be fine. i'll feel so much more nostalgic as soon as all my cheques are countersigned. i'm sure i'll be fi
Re you panicking or just groveling? i want to empathize.

How does it feel when the guilt bites into your veins? how does it feel, you cheeky, cheeky little monkey? how does it feel when your conscience burns in your brain? i gotta know, how does it fe
??

Been there done that don't like re-runs, if i do i'll rent the video and cancel your show. does somebody need a big hug? call me up when i'm in mexico, spending your dough. are you worrying o
T sniveling? i want to empathize. are you shivering, are you anything? i want to empathize.

(chorus)

How does it feel when the knife is stuck in your back? how does it feel you cheeky, cheeky little monkey? how does it feel when your anger boomerangs you? i gotta know, how does it feel???????

Sitting by candlelight, sucking back kryptonite in vain. used up message tape, nowhere to escape, locked in my chair. watching my silhouette, sucking back cigarettes in peace. the golden age of
Display is thankfully here. i see your mouth moving, but suddenly i think i'm deaf. i used to hear you but...
All your talk is cheap skywriting, it's big & bold until the smoke has cleared. a gust of wind & words are re-arranging, and suddenly the message disappears.

Cranking my radio, drowning out romeo with bass. it's thundering & quieting, i'm riding the storm. i see you scream at me but i pretend i'm somewhere else. i used to hear you but....

(chorus)

Non-essential information, a hurricane of aggravation. your head is high above the clouds, go write a best-seller now. i thought i heard something, but maybe it was just a dream, i used to hear
Ut now i know.

Garbage cans
I watch my neighbors next door, the mr. & mrs. at war. he lost his arm back in nam & they both drink like fish.they used to swap fluids at night, but now all they swap is a 911 fight.

Fading plastic garbage cans, waiting for the garbage man. to all the junk i'm waving goodbye. fading plastic garbage cans, full of things that lost their relevance, i wonder if there's treasur
Ide?

The flies have made friends on the curb, just like their buddy dead bird. cancel the picnic the love nest if swarming with bees. their yelling is at razors edge, then suddenly silence the lights
Gone dead.

(chorus)

For days it's been quiet, i only see mr. neighbor. and garbage day's here now, i wonder where the mrs. could be?

(chorus)

No shame
I like to dream about the beatles, i also ponder issues like pete best.
I watch my poster fill up with dart holes, but i dream too much.

I wonder if i'll ever be a hero. i wonder if i'll measure up to zero.
Either way i'm really 10 feet tall, with no shame at all.

I'd like to sing as good as sinatra, and i used to think i could be an astronaut.
I chuck my demo tape at the t.v., but i think too much.

(chorus)

No one hears me

Shut up i'm fine, just give me some more wine. it's a totally cosmic jam, i'm mauwin' down a superslam. i'm beating up your piggy bank, i only got you to thank.

Barracuda brain, dead end sucking drain, ultra sonic pain, you're too good to me.
Rabid porcupine, all the warning signs, hyperactive slime, you're too good to me.

Up chuck my brunch, it's a brady bunch lunch. i'm spewing up parasites, it's burning like dynamite. a totally honest chump, i'm running like forest gump.

(chorus)

A legitimate bloodless scam, a tarantino killer man. i'm driving with leroy brown, we're heading for a skinnier town.
