About A Girl

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do won't you have a clue

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free
I do

I'm standing in your line
I do hope you have the time
I do pick a number too
I do keep a date with you

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free
I do

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do won't you have a clue

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
But I can't see you every night
Free
I do
I do
I do
I do
Come As You Are

Come as you are
as you were,
As I want you to be
As a friend
as a friend
as an old memoria
Take your time
hurry up
The choice is yours
don't be late
Take a rest
as a friend as an old
memoria
memoria

memoria

Come dowsed in mud
soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend
as a friend
as an old

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun

And I swear that I don't have a gun

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun

Jesus Doesn't Want Me For A Sunbeam

Jesus doesn't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me
Don't expect me to cry
For all the reasons you had to die
Don't ever ask your love of me

Don't expect me to cry
Don't expect me to lie
Don't expect me to die for me

Jesus doesn't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me
Don't expect me to cry
For all the reasons you had to die
Don't ever ask your love of me

Don't expect me to cry
Don't expect me to lie
Don't expect me to die for me
Don't expect me to cry
Don't expect me to lie
Don't expect me to die for me

Jesus, don't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me

Don't expect me to cry
For all the reasons you had to die
Don't ever ask your love of me

Don't expect me to cry
Don't expect me to lie
Don't expect me to die
Don't expect me to cry
Don't expect me to lie
Don't expect me to die for me
The Man Who Sold The World

We passed upon the stair
we spoke of was and when Although I wasn't there
he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
a long long time ago

Oh no
not me We never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World

I laughed and shook his hand
and made my way back home
I searched for form and land
for years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazley stare
at all the millions here
I must have died alone
a long long time ago

Who knows
not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World

Who knows
not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
Withe the Man who Sold the World
Pennyroyal Tea

I'm on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I'm anemic royalty

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally

I'm so tired I can't sleep
I'm anemic royalty
I'm a liar and a thief
I'm anemic royalty

I'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
I'm anemic royalty
I'm anemic royalty
Dumb

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
or maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

My heart is broke
But I have some glue
Help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And have a hangover
have a hangover
have a hangover
have a hangover

Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb

Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy

I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
Polly

Polly wants a cracker
Think I should get off of her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch

It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself

Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few

It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself

Polly says her back hurts
And she's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
It amazes me the will of instinct

It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
On A Plain

I'll start this off without any words
I got so high that I scratched 'til I bled

I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

The finest day that I ever had
Was when I learned to cry on command

I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain

My brother died every night
It's safe to say don't quote me on that

I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

The black sheep got blackmailed again
Forgot to put on the zip code

I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain

Somewhere I have heard this before
In a dream my memory has stored
As a defense I'm neutered and spayed
What the hell am I trying to say

It is now time to make it unclear
To write off lines that don't make sense

I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

One more special message to go
And then I'm done then I can go home

I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
Something in the Way

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
It's ok to eat fish
'Cause they haven't any feelings

Something in the way
OOO-ooo
Something in the way
Yeah
OOO-ooo
Something in the way
OOO-ooo
Something in the way
Yeah
OOO-ooo

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak

Something in the way
OOO-ooo

Yeah

Plateau

Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands

The nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words

When you've finished with the mop then you can stop
And look at what you've done
The plateau's clean
no dirt to be seen
And the work it took was fun

The nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words

Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau
Some said it was in Greenland and some say Mexico
Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood
But those were all just guesses
wouldn't help you if they could
Oh Me

If I had to lose a mile
If I had to touch feelings
I would lose my soul
The way I do

I don't have to think
I only have to do it
The results are always perfect
And that's old news

Would you like to hear my voice
sprinkled with emotion
Invented at your birth

I can't see the end of me
My whole expanse I cannot see
I formulate infinity
Stored deep inside me

If I had to lose a mile
If I had to touch feelings
I would lose my soul
The way I do

I don't have to think
I only have to do it
The results are always perfect
And that's old news

Would you like to hear my voice
sprinkled with emotion
Invented at your birth

I can't see the end of me
My whole expanse I cannot see

I formulate infinity
Stored deep inside me
I formulate infinity
Stored deep inside me
Lake of Fire

Where do bad folks go when they die
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July

I knew a lady who came from Duluth
She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth
She went to her grave just a little too soon
And she flew away howling on the yellow moon

Where do bad folks go when they die
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July

Now the people cry and the people moan
And they look for a dry place to call their home
And try to find some place to rest their bones
While the angels and the devils
try to make them their own

Where do bad folks go when they die
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July
All Apologies

What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else should I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies

In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
Married
Buried

I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy

In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun

Married
Buried
Married
Buried

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
All in all is all we are
Where Did You Sleep Last Night

My girl
my girl
don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines
in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl
my girl
where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines
in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

Her husband
was a hard working man
Just about a mile from here
His head was found in a driving wheel
But his body never was found

My girl
my girl
don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines
in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl
my girl
where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines
in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl
my girl
don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines
in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl
my girl
where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines
in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
