- Vicky's box
He
Won't ride
In cars any more
It reminds him of
Blow jobs
That he's a queer
And his hair
Stuck to the roof,
- Buzz
Fell out of the sky
I fell out of the sky
I check the time
While you wait for your clothes to dry
I cut lemons and lemons and limes
One sour finger
Pretty as a picture
I always have a smile
- clark's nutcracker
Snap our skulls shut, spark off yesterday
Phantom brain headaches
Such a loud laugh in the platinum sun
The platinum blasted sun
'Cause you're a-wired
You just crumple up
You just tumble down, don't you?
I mean, you know you do
- Counting Backwards
Counting backwards I count you in
I don't remember him, I don't remember
Counting backwards I count you in
I don't remember him and I don't remember
In time I rope you in again
I try and burn you back through him
I built a tower in my bones
- freesia
Old home night
You bent, like the jackals outside
I wish, you lisp
What's the matter, don't you like
The way it all went down?
Up all night
That city hates you, won't let you walk right
You list, you kissed your last victim
- Green
You built a city in my head
Then there were candles
And a phoenix burned my bed
These are subwords
These are air
There’s one boy
In one house
- Hate My Way
I could be a smack freak
And hate society
I could hate God
And blame Dad
I might be in a Holocaust
Hate Hitler
Might not have a child
And hate school
- lazy eye
It might be electrical
I left a broken impression anyway
It might be blood or Coke
On the front step of Store 24
Keep your lazy eye in line
Sometimes we see so clearly with tears in our eyes (keep your lazy eye in line)
You whisper warm space advice
You always had it in for me
- Marriage Tree
Like an old man in a dress
Treat me like a 12 year old man
No more hearts
Don't know what 20 is
Don't know where the tree stands
Only follow these hands
At midnight I reach for the blind
- quick
Who did you cut down to the quick?
You know it's true
Hold back, you been saved
Hold your breath, you been saved
Hold your tongue, you been saved
Maintain your ground
Smooth, you take a shower when you can't take anymore
Nostalgic flowers wind their way around your core
- Red Shoes
This date
This war criminal is
This date is brutal, it
It wants red, so I got red shoes
'Cause red becomes you
This red becomes you
Eyes closed
You close them in the dark, huh ?
- sleepwalking 1
Even on the island
Even on the island where everything matters
And in a year
And in a year when everything happens
Maybe you're not as clean as you think
You really want to take me for a ride
Pissed at god, nature on your side
Sleepwalking, we stop at nothing
- Snakeface
Not another drive-in movie
You know you cant sit still
Move me
Snake snake
Face out an open window
Water in my eyes
Beat me to it
Meet me here next time
- static
Your mouth fell out of the sky and suddenly
I had it memorized
But honestly, it's like you're dead
A pretty picture of you breathing air
And you're just standing there
Static
Your hope is on the wing,
is on a bus tearing down the road
- Tango
Thank you for singing my chains when I couldn't sleep
Thank you for chaining me to the bed, that was sweet
Sing me to sleep Sing to me
My sad brother, my sunny lover
How much are you worth or do you work
Sometimes you're so heavy, sometimes I don't feel you at all
Feeling for a lightswitch I'm feeling this seconal
- The Letter
September 29, 1984 dear so and so
Gather me up because I'm lost
Or I'm back where I started from
I'm crawling on the floor rolling on the ground
I might cry I won't go home
So here's the story
I am turning up in circles
And I'm spinning on my knuckles
