Feelings

I'm taking back the knowledge
I'm taking back the gentleness
I'm taking back the ritual
I'm giving in to sweetness

Come preacherman, shoot me with your poisoned arrow
But i dance on vaseline
And i'm tripping out working on a revolution
You don't let the music in

I'm taking back the children
I'm taking back the ceremony
I'm taking back my offerings
And i'm taking back what you mean to me

You're dangerous, shoot me with your poisoned arrow
But i dance on vaseline
And i'm slipping out i'm working on a revolution
Don't let the music in

And war is all around us
Your gods are dead and buried underground
I was a silly putty
Your big ideas are useless to me now

My baby saw the future
She doesn't wanna live it anymore
Its lousy science-fiction
It's on your skin and seeps into your bones

Come preacherman, shoot me with your poisoned arrow
I dance on vaseline
And i'm tripping out working on a revolution
Don't let day begin

And you're dangerous, shoot me with your poisoned arrow
But i dance on vaseline
And i'm slipping out working on a revolution
Don't let the music in

It started in oklahoma
You always think it happens somewhere else
This madness is attractive
Until the day it happens to yourself

And power might seem sexy
But check her in the cool grey light of dawn
A legislative body
And all at once your lust for her is gone

And i'm tripping out working on a revolution
Don't let the day begin
We'll turn you down time to time for evolution
Don't let the music in

And i'm tripping out working on a revolution
Don't let the day begin
We'll turn you down, make a time for evolution
Don't let the day begin

The sun sinks low in the western lands
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
And a woman's heart is like the wind
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down

And he could not put her from his mind
And love is strong and it will not die
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down

Protect me now from what i am
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
For i'm in too deep and i cannot swim
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down

And he cursed his hands and he cursed his tongue
For what he'd said, for what he'd done
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down

Love, love, love's obsession
What keeps a man alive
By some strange possession
I stay safe inside
My heart's on probation
It was my first time
This world, world of wonders
Stick your head outside

Now the ass can speak but he don't say much
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
His words of wisdom, come but once
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down

So build your house on solid ground
And stay indoors when the rain comes down
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down
Go down, daddy go-down, daddy oh daddy go-down

Rose is tattooed in a perfect place
She bears the burden of a pretty face
The monkey boy, the leopard girl
The strange is also beautiful

It's summer time and the grass is high
Fuzzy freaky, funny family

It's my body and i'll eat it too
To do whatever touches you
My body speaks, my tongue cannot
My belly rumbles but the words are stuck
So come out

It's summer time and the weeds are high
Fuzzy freaky, funny family

All amplified, she's scandalized
And i'm changing size
Who was it?, jump on it
He's talking trash, and he can't get back
But he's meant to last
Inspired, desired
I'm walking low, my grass has grown
And i won't stay down
Excited, delighted

I'm awfully cute, i'm awfully cold
I'm sometimes rich and i'm sometimes poor
A butterfly when i graduate
You'll have to stop me if i get too big

Stop me

It's summer time and the weeds are high
Fuzzy funny, freaky family

He's in reverse, he'll kiss himself
In perfect health
Inflated, x-rated
And i smell you now
In a haunted house
In a squeaky sound
Inspired, desired

Now i'm wide enough
And i'm almost grown
And i won't stay down
Somebody, somebody

Inspired, desired

Excited, delighted

The words of love are not enough
Though sweet as wine, as thick as blood
Passionless moments and we are homeless
Out on the street

But life is cool and things aren't bad
Got what he wants, lost what he had
He's soon adjusted and got accustomed to these new ways

Blame god, how can you loose
Singing such sweet rhythm and blues
Strange days, she said to me
Being in love don't mean you're free

But night reveals what daytime hides
Who lingers on, who sleeps outside
The soft seduction, the strong attraction
Somewhere downtown

A junkie's song, a dancer's knees
The laws of chance strange as it seems
Take us exactly where we most likely need to be

A junkie's song, a dancer's knees
The laws of chance strange as it seems
Take us exactly where we most likely need to be

I love america, her secret's safe with me
And i know her wicked ways
The parts you never see

Oh super-girl, you'll be my super-model
Although you have a reputation
Can i afford to move above my station
I'm not the only heart you've conquered

And i love america, but boy can she be cruel
And i know how tall she is
Without her platform shoes

Oh super-girl, you'll be my super-model
Although at times it might seem awkward
Don't run away, oh don't you recognize me
I'm not the only heart you've conquered

And i kissed america, when she was fleecing me
She knows i understand that she needs to be free
And i miss america and sometimes she does too
And sometimes i think of her
When she is fucking you

I love america
Yo siempre he confiado en ti [=i have always trusted you]
I love america
Por que me tratas asi? [=why do you treat me like this?]

Oh super-girl, you'll be my super-model
Although your pants are round your ankles
And when you're down, i'll be your dirty harry
It will be just like in the movies

Oh super-girl, you'll be my super-model
Although at times it might seem awkward
Don't look away, i'll be your teenage fanclub
I'm not the only heart you've conquered

Three-hundred-fifty cities in the world
Just thirty teeth inside of our heads
These are the limits to our experience
It's scary but it's alright
And everything is finite

Only one record, in this whole wide world
Where jimi hendrix sings house burning down
Another elvis will not come along
He got wasted but it's alright
And everything is finite
Yeah, wasted - it's alright
Everything is finite

I'm just a baby in my daddy's arms
Who will protect me from these women's charms
I'm six foot tall but i barely speak
My - mind goes crazy when the taste is sweet
Well we've known each other, eight years and twenty days
It's - terrifying, it's beautiful too
Things have an end
But feeling is infinite
We're changing but it's alright
And everything is finite
Yeah, changing's alright
Things finite
