1. _ Apartment Song
Illuminate the obvious it's standing right here in front of us what our apartment does when we're not around does not concern us Simulate the obvious and it's standing, standing right here in front of us just what our apartment does when we're not around does not concern us She's the horrible esthete and she hates her ugly feet at a place where her friends all meet she takes her shoes off and invites everyone to see Eliminate the obvious and it's right here, right here in front of us just what our apartment does when we're not around does not concern us She's the horrible esthete at the place where her friends all meet while her clock reinforces its conceit and her mirror checks out other things the walls stand a little more at ease and her books they chat so expertly and her cups and saucers get some sleep and things get all together neat and at the clicking of the key returns the horrible esthete more free lyrics |
2. _ Flamenco
Does it diminish your super-capacity to love Walk like a matador, don't be chicken-shit and turn breezes into rivulets flamenco-sweep the air and weave the sun and stamp your feet for everyone Does it exhibit your natural tendency to hate Maybe a prostitute could teach you how to take a compliment maybe I'll go to New York, I'll drag you there you said, "no one drags me anywhere" Does it diminish your super-capacity to love more free lyrics |
3. _ Sherpa
Me and the vivid girl in our hammock to the stars staring into the fire before TV, the remote-control's on Mars In the dope of the pigment, in the poetic state of mind in a flood of country we lay down to kill some time And we spoke languidly of the Northern Bee and collecting dewdrops for tea underneath the cannonball tree We were high, we were sherpa-high, we conspired against old friends we said we must be friends or die and we've died a thousand times since then And we spoke long, at length of the fight or flee and of nothing in particularly underneath the cannonball tree We spoke off-handedly of new extremes and of nothing in particularly underneath the cannonball tree We're at the point where we love or hate it we can write it down and obliterate it when we're at the point when we neither love nor hate it we can lay down and obliterate it more free lyrics |
4. _ 700 Ft. Ceiling
Lets go to the park lets go watch'em floodin' out there after dark, don't have to think of nothin' and I love that for, for the way I'm feeling 700 foot, 700 foot ceiling Lets take it to the top of the tobacco nation we can aim the dish for hardcore invitations and I hate that for, for the things I'm thinking when the clouds are low, 700 and sinking It's part hard, hard to remember it's part hard to say parts unknown, unknown forever and those parts fade away but leanings toward, toward a full-stop's all I hear you say One foot on the stump, the other's on the pulpit 700 foot, 700 foot pulpit and I love that for, for the way I'm feeling 700 foot, 700 foot ceiling in our backyard, we can do some floodin' when it's cold and dark, don't have to think or nothin' more free lyrics |
5. _ Coconut Cream
There's a cannon shooting coconut cream 40 gallons in a steady stream there's a cannon shooting coconut cream 40 gallons at a steady stream It's wing music to a happy cat he likes his butterflies slow and fat and wing music to a happy cat he likes his butterflies slow and fat Us little christians in a circle jerk til our daddy gets home from work all us good christians in a circle jerk til our daddy gets home from work There's a cannon shooting coconut cream 40 gallons in a steady stream there's a cannon that shoots coconut cream 40 gallons in a steady stream more free lyrics |
6. _ Butts Wigglin'
The sweet sound of patent approval comin' down in a not quite fog The sweet sound of patent approval comin' down in powdery sparks The sweet sound of patent approval comin' down with holiday concern The sweet sound of patent approval comin' down in a world of hurt In my opinion the drug is ready The warm hand of abject approval comin' down with its' ropey veins The warm hand of abject approval comin' down to the fingerbowl In my opinion the drug is ready The cold eye of constant approval comin' down to freeze the blood The cold eye of constant approval comin' down to look real close In my opinion the drug is ready more free lyrics |
7. _ Gift Shop
The beautiful lull, the dangerous tug we get to feel small from high up above and after a glimpse over the top the rest of the world becomes a gift shop The pendulum swings for the horse like a man out over the rim is ice cream to him the beautiful lull, the dangerous tug we get to feel small but not out of place at all We're forced to bed but we're free to dream all us human extras, all us herded beings and after a glimpse over the top the rest of the world becomes a gift shop I don't know what to believe, sometimes I even forget and if it's a lie, terrorists made me say it the beautiful lull, the dangerous tug we get to feel small from high up above from high up above more free lyrics |
8. _ Put It Off
I wrote unfriendly things, truly cruel, on the day that you were born to prove that words cannot touch beauty but I was torn I put it off, I put it off, I put it off again I made degenerate art for the religious right on the day that you were born I had passion to experiment but I was torn I put it off, I put it off, I put it off again I played Love Tara by Eric's Trip on the day that you were born I had to find the cuteness in the unadorned but I was torn I put it off, I put it off, I put it off again I put it on, I put it on, I put it on again more free lyrics |
9. _ Ahead By A Century
First we'd climb the tree and maybe then we'd talk or sit silently and listen to our thoughts with illusions of someday casting a golden light no dress rehearsal, this is our life that's where the hornet stung me and I had a feverish dream with revenge and doubt tonight, we smoke them out You are ahead by a century Stare in the morning shroud and then the day began I tilted your cloud, you tilted my hand rain falls in real time and rain fell through the night no dress rehearsal, this is our life That's when the hornet stung me and I had a serious dream with revenge and doubt tonight, we smoke them out You are ahead by a century but this is our life and disappointing you's gettin' me down more free lyrics |
10. _ Don't Wake Daddy
Sled dogs after dinner close their eyes on the howlin' wastes Kurt Cobain, reincarnated, sighs and licks his face then they drift past strips of Serengeti and the gates of Sleepy Hollow too you can pause in wonder, they paused in wonder and yea, I paused in wonder too just don't wake daddy They can lay their heads on their futon-beds, so many miles from home you can teach your children some fashion sense and they fashion some of their own for when the policy-weary commune on the untamed land through white sheers whispers in their ears, you're damned and don't wake daddy You can stuff yer void with the asteroid that's hurtlin toward the earth you can drop the bomb that restores some calm then promises rebirth just don't wake daddy It's the perfect time now for an eclectic choice they're all asleep but us now it's time to hear your voice Sing to end all songs to end all songs more free lyrics |
11. _ Lets Stay Engaged
It might be late but it won't be early you got me to the gate with time for a coffee it's getting late sounds like a departure it's getting close sounds to me like a departure Until we meet again lets stay engaged until then lets stay engaged Lies over time float to the surface lies over time they equal surface lies over time though the reasons desert us lies over time with no apparent purpose Until we meet again lets stay engaged until then lets stay engaged See the dead art and you see your reflection fear no art and you fear no reflection but don't look at me I'm not the artist in question sounds good to me but I'm not the artist in question Until we meet again lets stay engaged until then lets stay engaged more free lyrics |
12. _ Springtime In Vienna
Instructions from the manual could not have been much more plain the blues are still required the blues are still required again past territorial piss-posts past whispers in the closets past screamin' from the rooftops we live to survive our paradoxes Men here of the secret they pass in upholstered silence they only exist in crisis they only exist in silence past territorial piss-posts past whispers in the closets past screamin' from the rooftops we live to survive our paradoxes we'll live to survive our paradoxes more free lyrics |
