Loudbody

why is the body so loud?
its like being stuck in a crowd
millions of cells bouncing around
moving all over up and down
why is the body so loud?
its like being up in the clouds
everybody making their sounds
when it gets quiet we go underground
and it'll be quiet someday
all the noise is gonna go away

Garmonbozia
02:49
|

i wanted to start a party
with me and my best friend D
we went out with good intentions
but he became electricity
now you and i were supposed to go scuba diving
but we just lay on the floor all night
we saw the well and then the water
and then the horse was the white of the eyes
and i ain't been this scared in a long time
it’s been a minute
i just can’t wait for garmonbozia
and i ain't been this scared in a long time
i must admit it
lord i just can’t wait for garmonbozia
and i haven't been this scared in a long time
it's been a minute
i can't wait for garmonbozia

you keep saying that there isn’t
but there is no laws
keep sleeping but you’re waking up
who lives inside the bench
you did nothing but they’re saying there's probable cause
you're pretty enlightening but pretty in thunder too
and i won't insist we feed you to the bottom
we all smile and grit the teeth to get us through the bad times
i just want to feel like gary busey is standing next to me
you keep saying that there isn't
but there is no laws
you keep sneaking just avoiding
all the pleasant things you need
you try not to but you end up in the box
the overfinger got caught in the undertow
and i won't insist we feed you to the bottom
we all smile and grit the teeth to get us through the bad times
i just want to feel like gary busey is standing next to me
life on the rocks
is it a memory
or is it a thing you recall?
my eyes on the top
of a beautiful mountain range
i'm watching them crumbling and falling
i'm watching them falling

Normal Size
02:01
|
|||
no i won't shrink down into normal size
so please be gone from my property in a minute
but i won't shrink down into normal size
normal size
no i won't shrink down into normal size
so don't accuse me of vertical complication
but i won't shrink down into normal size
normal size
well i'd love to shrink down to normal size at any time now but seeing as that's medically inaccurate and not economically viable i will retain my original height much to the chagrin of all onlookers
no i won't shrink down into normal size
and become a real pathetic tiny person
no i won't shrink down into normal size
normal size
no i won't shrink down into normal size
yeah i'm aware it’s a tenuous situation
but i won't shrink down into normal size
normal size
no i won't shrink down into normal size
so frig off and i hope i don't smell ya later
cuz i won't shrink down into normal size

Citrine
04:20
|
|||
i saw you there lazin' 'round on the corner
with a single strand of yellow hair
i imagine you were feeling just like an angel
and i imagine you were looking quite debonair
and i imagine you were really starting to care
you started to care for
citrine
hold onto that cool dream
you probably put it in a letter
but you had to give it away
to citrine
hold onto that cool dream
you're dreaming of the time you met her
but you had to give it away
you gave it away to citrine
i thought i saw you praising lords in the cloud tops
but there was that building and you were inside
i imagine you just want a shot at redemption
and i imagine you were trying to swallow your pride
and i imagine you were probably trying to hide
you're trying to hide from
citrine
i imagine you were solving all of your problems
i imagine you were really feeling alright
and i imagine you were feeling kunzunite
that’s probably what you’re feeling

Arm Bone
02:55
|
|||
some people act calm and assertive
but things look uncertain and i'm all nervous cuz
spies in the air that are giving me problems
don't let me celebrate anything
i'm certainly not getting younger
my arm bone is hurting and i'm allergic to
things in the air find their way to my nostrils
and give me something to care about
some people all pleasant together
but i'm still concerned with the state of the weather
a grim dirty cloud dumping up in the sky
and it pisses right on my balcony
my foot falls like lead on the throttle
incisions left open, the surgeon is awful
and dirt punches in while i'm still underwater
about all the good things in life
i feel a bit like eliza
which doesn't mean anything
and even though she’s probably tied up
she'll keep saying it's the best way to be
some people live free and unfettered
but i'm still afraid of assault with a weapon
a blunt foreign object from out of the crowd
and i see it flying in front of me
my skull makes contact with the bottle
the blood leaves my head on the way to the hospital
fluorescent lights shining right in my eyes
and i wished that i wouldn’t die
i feel a bit like eliza
which doesn't mean anything
and even though she’s probably tied up
she keeps insisting it's the best way to be

Audiomedic
05:40
|

hold the line
press it in the fire
thinking back to the minute when
i saw you in everything
out of time
painted baby blue
need an audiomedic
two against the world
i'm in love with her
later we’ll be gone
side by side
rested in ourselves
sitting out like the dinner
that was left on the tablecloth
call the bride
painted baby blue
need an audiomedic
two against the world
i'm in love with her
later we’ll be gone
old and tired
drifting in the sand
thinking back to the minute
when i saw you in everything
roll the tide
painted baby blue
need an audiomedic
two against the world
i'm in love with her later
we’ll be gone
holding out
holding out for love
in our stormy sins
so innocent
and it was enough
we’d dance around the rocks
hoping we could stay
inside this place

Jeff
03:17
|
|||
jeff, he was one of the best
he fell into the river two times
and climbed right out onto the crest
now struggling for breath
they saw that he was barely alive
and crawled right over to him
jeff was feeling kinda stressed
he probably was thinking about
regretting being sent out on a quest
specifically for jeff
he was a real dependable guy
of that we never had any doubt
and all his friends are dripping
drowning in sympathy
i know they all just want whats best for old jeffery
and i hope that someone somewhere is proud of me
because i'm trying to live my life just like jeffery
jeff’s situation had progressed
to the point there rang a shot from the side
and jeffrey felt lead lodge into his chest
and as you may have guessed
he really wasn’t pleased in the slightest
a most inconsolable jeff
jeff was now a total mess
while bleeding in the heat of the moment
he was scooped up by some infernal pest
and taken to it’s nest
wherein the nefarious brood would reside
who cut him open with intention to ingest
the morsels made of jeff
and now we reach the end of the story
since i heard it i've been completely obsessed
with memories of jeff
while at a preliminary time
he told us ‘over and out’

I'm Dead
01:51
|
|||
i’m dead
it’s not funny
well at least not to me
you clean up my filthy carcass
toss it into the cemetary
i’m dead
it’s upsetting
this happens every time
i messed up and then i blew it
all for a taste of sweet adrenaline
and i never did the things that i want
when i was living
please lower your expectations for me
cuz i’m dead
i’m dead but don't worry
i should be over it soon
i’ve been eating all organic
exercising regularly too
and my house is unfurnished
some people took all my clothes
and to be honest i'm getting nervous
a this rate i'm left with nothing at all
and i never really did the things that i want
when i was living
please lower your expectations for me
cuz i’m dead

you ask 'what's later?'
baby you can't
you spend your whole life waiting
baby you will
you look so tired out
but you fall in love for the kids
you fall in love, but you could never love anyone
but the kids, they fall in love
but you could never love anyone
another page in the story
baby you can't
a little photocopy
baby you will
you gouged my eyes out

Mr Oink
04:13
|
|||
you open your closet in the morning
so many options you can’t decide
you see your reflection in the mirror
but theres this other face that you decide to hide
never a fan of us
sneaking 'round so scandalous
you better be careful or you'll turn right into mr oink
you're living in fear again
afraid of someone peering in
just watch your step girl or you'll turn right into mr oink
you step into the sunlight in the afternoon
just looking side to side beneath the sun
you see someone that looks familiar
but you cant remember just where you might know them from
never a fan of us
sneaking 'round so scandalous
you better be careful or you'll turn right into mr oink
you're living in fear again
collecting criterion
just watch your step girl or you'll turn right into mr oink
you walk around in the darkness of the moonlight
but everyone is gone, oh no! where did they go?
all the streets are empty and you’re feeling so alone oh
well, i hate to say it baby but i told so
never a fan of us
sneaking 'round so scandalous
you better be careful or you'll turn right into mr oink
you're living that fear again
afraid of letting someone near again
just watch your step girl or you'll turn right into mr oink
you might turn into a little dude i knew
well you might turn into it but i hope you don't do it
please don't turn into that dirty little guy
oh my

joshua and grandpa seth
they really were the best of friends
joshua and grandpa seth
they went to fight the goblins
joshua and grandpa seth
they knew the magic of stonehenge
joshua and grandpa seth
they ate bologna sandwiches
and if that grandpa seth is coming round
well i hope that he still knows the layout of this house
and if that old grandpa seth’s insisting on coming around
well i hope he knows the layout of this house

Water on Mars
04:42
|
|||
it’s as soft as a feather
it’s as cold as a stone
can you see it when you’re on your own?
it’s as warm as a pillow
it’s as dense as a nail
can you see the night sky growing pale?
we’ll all be falling in love
but you won’t let me in
someone said they found water on mars
and if it happened the once
it can happen again
it’s as tense as the weather
it’s as light as a rock
did you feel the sweet paradox?
it’s as dry as the oilfields
its as dark as the moon
can you hear the familiar tune?

here on a paper
do what you will
pretty as a picture
do what you will
you were just so serene
like a painting
everyone laid around
they were waiting for you
to come around
the sun got into your eyes
sooner or later
do what you will
lend me a lighter
do what you will
