Adopductionkidnapped! I was kidnapped. I dreamed I was kidnapped. by a guy with a moustache and a chick with an eyepatch who though they could trade me back for some quick cash. but when they relayed the bargain my family said, "we'll pay half that" the haggling went on for days, the days went on for weeks and weeks for years. riding in the trunk was never fun but soon I plum ran out of tears. they camped us in the woods we cooked canned goods they never threatened me with pain. they treated cops politely driving nightly always using coded names. so if slowly I could trust them dare I say it even love them who's to blame. I learned my alphabet and letterset while setting up my latest ransom note. they got me correspondence classes, got me glasses, gave me dropcloths in the cold. my fondest memories are from my hostage crises I know it's strange. although we got so close you know they never even told me their real names.
Blackouts16 pairs of shoes
In a closet 6 feet deep,
And 6 feet wide and 6 feet high.
Blackouts on Thursday!
Total blackouts are where it's at.
I'm going back to high school
Where I can make out like a cat.
Brace YourselfBefore I was a war I was a sword.
Before I was a tree I was a seed.
Before I was a cliff I was a canyon.
Before I was a feast I was a famine.
Before I was a day I was a dawn.
Before I was a prince I was a swan.
Before I was a corpse I was a kid.
Fading VibesWhen we were little kids we tried to seven deadly sins in the attic every summertime. The wet felt smelling silent kind. We'd play light as a feather, stiff as a board and you'd press to my hips and we'd slip through the floor. They grey, grey ghost is coming out of the bright white sheet that was wrapped about him. The shade, shade, shade, could have been mistaken, but I swear that the sunlight was shooting straight through him. Let's make a mess of this banquet while our bones are soaked in blood. When our skin and cells are beankrupt we'll be deposit in the dust. Try to stay soft and remember to bend the chance to get supple will not come again 'cause in time you will find rigor mortis sets in. I failed and I failed but my failures were passing, grew hair and a tail and was all the while asking, "Does it stay like this?" and "will it end like this?" I'm afraid that you're fading away, you're not coming in clear. I'm afraid that the games that we've played have turned desperate and dear. I'll try to stay soft and remember to bend the chance to get supple will not come again 'cause in time I will find rigor and mortis sets in. All that you cherish will perish. All that can punish will pass. I know you'll hit the ground running when you ditch the road at last. Well, we failed and we failed but our failures were passing, grew hair and a tailand were all the while asking, "Does it stay like this?" and "Will it end like this, is this supposed to hurt or are we sensitive?" The'rell be no red rose the day you die there'll be flies round your nose and rings round your eyes. The clock ticks on we don't have a say, we let one hand wash the others dirt away. We're doing way too much, we do it way too often. What used to be a crutch has become a coffin. It's been good to be alive, but I've simply got to go. Someones on the other line and they're calling for my soul
Hello Halo, Goodbye GlandsHello to my halo,
Goodbye to my glands,
You can move a mountain with a book of plans.
You can't break a heart with my birthday wish.
You can't make a wave in a petrie dish.
Tell them,
We think they're starving.
IntroBonjour et merci, nous vous remercions de votre attention.
Nous espérons que notre musique en vaut le coup.
Ces chansons ont été enregistrées durant la semaine après la st valentin 1997, à ??room,
Williamsburgh, Brooklyn, NY, États-Unis d’Amérique.
Asseyez-vous s’il vous plaît, posez vos mains sur vos genoux et fermez les yeux.
Les Savy Fav vont bientôt commencer.
Au fond de chaque perle vous trouverez une chanson. Ils les composent facilement avec passion; ils sont sérieux, mais ils savent s’amuser aussi.
Les Savy Fav sont merveilleux, ils me prennent la tête, ils me touchent partout…Je n’en peux plus. Assis ici ils me demandent trop; ils vous demandent trop. Allez-vous résister?
Knowing How the World WorksPapa don't preach,
I beseech you man,
Your devilish deeds teach more than a teacher can.
What have we learned?
Which lessons won't stick?
Tracing the edges of wisdom and shit.
Knowing How The World Works is not knowing how to work the world.
Let's Get Out of HereI want you
I want you
I want you
right now
I don't need you to soothe me
to fix me
to prove me
I just want you
One Way WidowShe was sweet sixteen, baby beauty queen.
Straight white teeth, bathed in beauty cream. Priss dont drink and priss dont smoke.
Shit dont stink and dont take jokes.
Botoxed in bobby socks. Cold as ice.
All the boys where like white on rice.
The end result is still the same,
you cant go back the way you came.
Pills
Once when walking in the woods
I came upon a burning bush.
"What wants you vision?", says I
And it spoke, and I quote,
"Apocalypse can go down easy
You gotta know it's an acquired taste.

Have you got a minute?
Can you fit me into it?
Have you got a minute?
Have you got a year?
Have you got a year?
Raging In The Plague AgeI used to hold the biggest balls
Deep inside my castle walls
Spend my nights with concubine
Wasted, unchaste, drunk on blood red wine
Being the king was pretty cool
I'd have to say that ruling ruled
And I'd be in throne still
Had I not one day fallen ill
RodeoFav,
Les Savy Fav,
Les Savy Fav-
That's our name.
The first crack
Was invisible,
The next crack
The Sweat DescendsThe sweat descends
The sweat scents
One cock sure fox in a house of hens
My mouth will water where the sweat descends
The sweat descends sweet decadence,
lets hope this party never ends
A shiv in the ribs,
Tragic MonstersWhat we don't know can fill a truck
What we don't know cannot hurt us
Well, is that so?
We're hard to destruct
Well, is that so?
Why do we get crushed?
