in her mouth
on a passover seder
tears in her eyes

to put the basket in

flowers
batteries
penis
murder

Shame About Rudy
02:14
|
|||
|
he led a charmed life
he used up all the paper
he smuggled it all home for his daughter
amidst all the panic
he stole all the synonyms
he sold them online for the money
some people are too beautiful for this world
but not i
its such a shame about rudy
he was a hell of a guy
while in front of his family
in one hand he was painting
he poured it in and poisoned the water
and in a moment of vanity
hes totally suffocating
but he only blacks out for ten minutes
some people are too beautiful for this world
but not i
its such a shame about rudy
he was a hell of a guy
when he was resuscitated
he was so disappointed
he ran right out and jumped into traffic
i dont remember the point of this
a tiny cynic in a city
you can be assured it was quite important
some people are too beautiful for this world
but not i
its such a shame about rudy
he was a hell of a guy

Time of the Place
03:38

go outside
stand in the dark
its not night but its shady enough
something reminds you of feelings you used to know
this is the time of the place
when i recall the face that you made
a thumb and finger circled up to your eyes
go outside
stand in the dark
its not night but youre not seeing too much
something reminds you of places you used to go
this is the time of the place
when i wrote down a few words on a page
but the ink i used it was invisible
a bit invisible
go outside
stand in the dark
its not night but youre not seeing alot
something reminds you of people you used to know
this is the time of the place
when i lucked out and made a mistake
someone should have told me it was quite critical
a mission critical

shutter the blinds
turn the volume on radio
changing her mind
the woman decides
if shes speaking in falsetto
turning the tide
all in the service mary anne
steady decline
all in the service of mary anne
head in the clouds
38 west of tennessee
now what is this? does it fit in the fridge?
can it be reduced into debris?
turning the tide
all in the service mary anne
steady decline
all in the service of mary anne
you know what they say
long in the face means down and out
but out the haze her pitches will raise
and pick me up right when i need some help
turning the tide
all in the service mary anne
steady decline
all in the service of mary anne

The Shape of a Woman
04:15

in front of the moon a silhouette
thats just the way light works
the glowing embers on your cigarette
you probably shouldnt be doing that
i saw your picture from a satellite
theres lots of freaky shit in space
but i finally see something that i know
you got the shape of a woman
the shape of a woman
you got the shape of a woman
and thats alright with me
theres not alot of things that have that shape
most have shapes of their own
many other things have got a shape
often shaped like what they are
i saw your picture from a satellite
theres lots of freaky shit in space
but finally im seeing something that i know
you got the shape of a woman
the shape of a woman
you got the shape of a woman
and thats alright with me
theres lots of things inside this crazy world
crazy things with crazy shapes
sometimes i see a shape i gotta love
sometimes i say hey that shape looks great
i saw your picture from a satellite
theres lots of normal shit in space
now can you guess what i see?
oh let me tell you again
you got the shape of a woman
the shape of a woman
you got the shape all over your body
you got the shape
shape type, the type that i like
you got the shape of a woman

Durban Turban
02:13
|
|||
|
i might have had more than enough
what is this that im thinking of
a little lady in the streets
a durban turban in the sheets
antagonizing fishy beings
feeds oceanic industry
a true genetic cul de sac
once you go durb you dont go back
durb me once
then all is forgiven
analyze a symptom or two
you designed this for interference
durb me twice then a deep shame on you
durb me twice then a deep shame on you
and for the lessons i have learned
we must not let the turbans burn
if only for your own good health
you should get a turban for yourself
a little turban
a little durban turban of love
i got a rash
a real real serious rash
i wanna throw it in the trash
but i got a real real serious rash
i got a real real serious rash
i wish it wasn’t on my butt
but i got a real real serious rash

Eloise
04:31
|

when i showed up
she was already there
looking quite debonair
eloise
and while the tables turned
we rearranged the chairs
she did not seem to care
eloise
and if i could help ease her suffering tonight
then she might not look so serious
when i went down
on her out at the fair
people started to stare
at eloise
and when she took off her top
what she had hiding in there
was now laid totally bare
eloise
and if i could help ease her suffering tonight
then she might not look so serious
then off she ran
and i was quite unaware
she didnt shed a single tear
eloise
and so i set up a trap
with only seconds to spare
in hopes that i would ensnare
eloise
and if i could help ease her suffering tonight
then she might not look so

andrea
the words i should have spoken
but i cant because the heart i have is broken
but if you only knew the feelings that i feel in my heart
andrea
you seem so sweet youd desecrate my pancreas
id end up diabetic
but if you only knew
the r2d2 deep in my heart
what could i say to someone who’s as rad as you are
the only things that come into my head
are all these salty phrases to say
you stood there playing chords upon your 6 string guitar
and im next to you holding one with 4
and you just look so cute when you play
andrea
i wonder if ill meet another girl like you
though theres no chance that shell be nearly as fine
i sincerely wish you were mine
i wonder if you ever felt this way about me
even for just a split second or two
because i sure really absolutely sincerely do
andrea
to be with you my plot would be nefarious
youre bond im scaramanga
oh if you only knew the daylights living deep in my heart
the c3po deep in my heart

walking down the road there i see you cosmic traveller
in pythagaorean style
everything is happening
you probably are somebodys child
walking down the street there i see you cosmic traveller
pointing a signal to mars

kissed by the moon
sung by the stars
everything is happening
everything is happening today
walking down the road there i see you walking backwards
in true egyptian style
everything is happening
everything is happening today

Night Train to Munich
03:42
|

|
sometimes i lie awake imagining
two or more items of rolling stock coupled together
and in my day to day im picturing
a world consisting of electric, deisel, and steam
on a night train to munich
i wrote a scarlet letter
that suit would look much better on me
on a night train to munich
i called you sympathetic
we all had leather seats on that train
we must supply more head end power
im well aware of this
but im running low on suggestions
and we’ll bear the passenger fury
climb away from car to car
im thinking about jumping off the back one
on a night train to munich
i wrote a scarlet letter
that suit would look much better on me
on a night train to munich
i called you sympathetic
we all had leather seats on that train
on tuesday the train won’t come again
its gone down the tracks for the last time
and we all got aboard it
we put our fingers in
the grimy cracks that line the ashtray
on a night train to munich
i wrote a scarlet letter
that suit would look much better on me
on a night train to munich
i called you sympathetic
we all had leather seats on that train

Little Tomorrow
01:43

staring down at a drink
i dont believe i meant what i think
sirens turn into her
testing out which method she prefers
you aint gonna see that little tomorrow
and whats inside of your head
i dont believe i meant what i said
seems important to me
youve invested in tranquility
you aint gonna see that little tomorrow
will ya?
and in the letter i sent
i dont believe i said what i meant
fear that turns into hate
an undesirable personality trait
you aint gonna see that
you aint gonna see that little tomorrow
will ya?

Inside In
04:15

|
we were young we were hopeful
we were underexposed
we would try to imagine
putting on nice looking clothes
we were young in our childhood
we were young in our time
there was nothing between us
we'd be sippin on sweet berry wine
and so we forgot
it was all in a dream
we thought it was real for a moment
before it was gone
and what are the odds
that someone like me
would meet someone like you here
inside of a dream
