Jesuit Pope
02:18
|

Mama always wanted a Jesuit Pope
She didn't want me to grow up and be no dope
Mama always wanted an engineer
She didn't want no musician, let's make that clear
Mama always wanted, a man of the cloth
She wanted a front seat at that heavenly troth

Wanted

|

I never wanted it this way
only thought that if I did then you would stay
I think we knew it all along
always knew you would end up in this song

Sweatshop Sweetheart

|

My Sweatshop sweetheart writes me notes
Left in "Made in China" coats
She sings the blues in prose from tuán to qī chǔ
I found notes in my Nike sneeks
I hadn't heard from her in weeks
The melody she weaves is not to be believed
I found her picture on my phone
and now I'll never be alone
One in a million, so far from home
I wanna run away with her
I wanna take her home

Trip N Fall
03:40
|
|||
I trip and fall, over my words
You rattle chains, chase me away
I walk down every street, your picture haunts me everywhere
Every alley hides a warning I can't stop to hear
All I do, is run towards your voice
watch you dissapear
I wrote you off, words fell apart
You credit me, Im not that smart
You walked away from me, you had to get away
How was I to know that this was our last day
Last time we spoke it was in anger
Last time I saw your face
There was no embrace
No last embrace

Grade A Amber Light

Cover you with Amber light
Cover you with Petals
Sweet & Sour Heavy Metal
She said hello my pretty flower
you get better by the hour
My exploding super Nova
Fascination still not over
I will play with you my famous flame
Linger on the longing game
I don't know what has been said
Bad thoughts running round your head
Words could never do, what my hands can explain to you

All My Children
02:55
|
|||
All of my children are bold & beautiful
All of my children have gone away
You have one life to live
As you search for tomorrow
A guiding light in a secret storm
As the world turns
All of my children are bold & beautiful
All of my children have gone away
All of my children are Young & Restless
All of my children have gone away
Ryan’s hope is for more soap
Painted dreams to help me cope
In general Hospital kept me alive
These are the dreams of the days of our lives
The are the days of our lives

Vickey Vomit
03:57
|

Spinning round her orbit
Rolling in her space
Nipping at her heels
They’re gonna end up on their face
Laws of attraction at the YMCA brunch
when she starts to feel it, she just starts to lose her lunch
Rolling round her orbit,rumors start to fly
"Have you ever wondered why she’s never with a guy?"
Vickey starts a band called "The Lesbian Rumors"
Songs about zombies eating epileptic tumors
The inter webs are scary, for kids like me & you
Scary spider mutants, chasing after you
But when you finally find him
He’s been waiting there for you
Now he’s spinning round her orbit
Floating in her space
No longer a pervert , he is lost in her embrace
Lost in her embrace, lost in her embrace

Gone
03:03
|
|||
They were here, only a moment it is clear
only in thoughts re-appear
fading away
Gone long......
In a word... out of time, you were gone
Take a look , now just a picture in a book
Where did you go, can you hear?
Did you just disappear
They were here, only a moment it is clear
only in thoughts re-appear
fading away
gone long, gone long
In a word out of time, you were gone
Take a look , now just a picture in a book
where did you go, can you hear
did you just disappear
Gone long.....
When your time’s running out
and those left mill about
trying to fill all those holes in your soul
I heard what you said and I want to believe every word
Your voice, come out of my mouth with out choice
Hearing your words, I rejoice
but its fading away

Stranger Things
02:57
|
|||
I don't want to tell you all those pretty lies
Walk don't run, to watch you over analyze
Wake up in a pool of sorrow
Acting like there's no tomorrow
I know that we've both been drinking
So I know, Im not thinking anything
You don't love me , I don't love that it is true
So I wonder why I wander into you
Glossing over indecision
Making love with high precision
Look at life, through a bottle
Taking shots at full throttle
Prophesied our last goodbye, now it is done
Alibi, it made you cry now you have won
Making marks with motel matches
Growing nails for deeper scratches
Stranger Things that nature brings
