Miss
In the frilly dress
The worn out sandalettes
With the apron strapped on tight
Would you take my order now
For I, I am in distress
I need you waitress
To look up at me, me
Please
Turn those pretty eyes
Again the sun will rise
And you don’t see me
All I want to ask of you
Might you help my situation
My infatuation
Just stay for a while, while
I know it’s only five AM
But have you poured yourself a cup of tea
Whenever you try to seat yourself
Another balding man with another plea
Please let me take you away
Just for the night if I may
We’ll have it all just your way
I have no coins but with my heart I’ll pay
I can see your moving lips
As you serve the drunk boy chips
He won’t hold down long
A taste, a retch, a turn and dip
No queen should cower on the floor now
And wipe up that rude swine’s chow
I’ll give you a hand, hand
Your nails
Leave crescent moon shaped trails
Upon the ginger ales
Your misery burns me
You need the other end of town
Let’s go
I’ll take you on a night bus
I’m sure it will ignite us
Again and again
I’ve never been this far before
The winding streets are gritting their stone teeth
The picturesque tranquility
Couples holding hands on their native heath
Please let me take you away
Just for the night if I may
We’ll have it all just your way
I have no coins but with my heart I’ll pay
No more potato puree
No sorbet, no parfait, no soufflé
I’ll personally scorch that tea tray
I have no words but I’ll ask you someday

Novum Ovum
02:44
|
|||
A brick wall around her placenta
Cut them all off from her mother blood
The hounds call for appassionata
A phonetic past for the fetal bud
Novum ovum, oh
Javelins penetrate the band aid
Novum ovum, oh
The yelps stay steadily unpaid
Novum ovum, oh
Bones stick out from their soft case
Novum ovum, oh
The grace of a silk veil
Connected through a fresh milk seal
Find the sting of salt lick
In search of libidinous frolickin’
Eat her up from the center
Slower no faster consume
Read her lips can you tell now
With the blood and the hair from her tomb
Disintegrate in mortal combat
Pinch the last bit of body fat
Apoplectic with lucid rage
Become your own gut’s twitching knave
Eat her up from the center
Slower no faster consume
Read her lips can you tell now
With the blood and the hair from her tomb

Dirty Blonde
02:08
|

For a while you were a redhead
But it made your water-colored eyes look dead
Shoulda stayed away from that bottle
Now you’re but an orange-trimmed neck to throttle
Put it down and leave it be
Leave the ginger for the tea
White blonde
Platinum
Honeycomb you stuck me in
Stay a goddamn dirty blonde
We all know where you’re coming from
What you’re running from
The poor poor melanin
You once grazed so mellow in
Will always fade into an
Undefined shade
You can try to pluck the fruit
But it grows back from the roots
You leave chemtrails in your wake
Don’t waste your cash at the till
You dye-addicted piece of human waste
Leave your pain out to chill
Peroxide never suited you anyways
And it never will
White blonde
Platinum
Honeycomb you stuck me in
Stay a goddamn dirty blonde
We all you where you’re coming from
What you’re running from
Acid treatment for your scalp
Just a fad to which you ran
Stay a goddamn dirty blonde
We all know where you once began
Where you’ll always stand

Penny Roll
03:40
|
|||
Darling you
Are the whether
Or not
For the weakened soul
Oh you
Are my punches
Penny roll
Penny roll
You should see yourself
Unkempt
Running around
No mind on the rent
Living is harder
To bend
When I’ve got nothing
To represent
Raindrops are falling
On the mud
Try to grow a potato
Without a spud
Make sure you know
When your time is up
Cause I’m left here
With nothing but suds
The tangle is tight
But we’ll be fine
All they’ll see
Is us from behind
You’ll get better
In time
For our garden of eden
So sublime

On The Fields
03:39
|

I watch the trees pass me by
Are they running
Or is it just the train
I wonder why
I hear the clanking of the trunks
Are they fighting
Or is it just the tracks
I rest my head cause it’s so dry
The thought alone breaks my skull
I guess i’ll leave it for now
Another day, another bull
I leave the ring and rest my brow
I left my robes in the fields
Has the farmer found them,
Shown his wife
No time to glare
Does he know I laid there long
Washed my toes between the crop
Made my prayers
And took my share
I never wanted to find this whole deal
This sunk affair
Or to make up all the time to make it real
A catch so rare
I’m on a train going far
A one way ticket to get me to my great big slide
I’d never leave a door ajar
Not even if it was nagging me
You know that’s no lie
I left my shell in the corn
Suppose he’s
wond’rin where it came from
‘Bout now
Woulda ended bad
A case forlorn
The weather conditions will worsten
This fall
Does he know I laid there long
Does he know I’d lay there still

It’s over and you know it
You soiled and defective wench
You better leave
Your vacant smile
You’re blatantly vile
Don’t linger for a while
Bear with me, glare with me, swear to me
That you’ll go
Don’t try to lie to them cause they
Already know
Now that she’s been repotted
My soil suits her better, reallotted
And no matter how hard you get thinking at it
To me you just stay telepathetic
She was a centerfold girl
Perfect from curl to curl to curl
See what you’ve done
She knew what she wanted
She told you and you brought it down
Down to the cross
ou take and you make her feel
Like a morgue
Spashed her with gasoline till nothing remains
To be forged
Now that she’s been repotted
My soil suits her good, non-alcoholic
And no matter how hard you get thinking at it
To me you just stay telepathetic

Silver Pill
03:30
|
|||
You’ve got nothing to prove
That you weren’t there on the scene
And I’ve got nothing to say
Drink your silver pill
With morphine
The sun has set the moon beams, moon beams
On hour trail, I can smell hour heart of a dog, heart of a dog
You can’t run from your inside
Your blood always follows your bones
Your fur will thicken tonight love
Ablaze with the full moon
She moans
It’s not human like this, now
The way you claw at the flesh
The beast in you will surface
Even though you tried
Your best

Violet
03:37
|
|||
Shades of blue
They’re shining through
The tan
Deep dark red
It splits in two
Never see it but tonight it came through
Violet, oh violet
Open up your petals
Violet, of violet
Pull them off
Glass eyes glazed
The love well phrazed
Paperthin
Net of veins
Like jewels been framed
Too tight, the binding will tear
Greenish tinge
You know no hinge
Is left
Hands of ice
Who throws the dice
Vendetta, vigilence and vice
Violet, oh violet
Open up your petals
Violet, of violet
Pull the off
Violet, oh violet
I will tear off your petals
Violet, oh violet
If you don’t open up

Cherie Sherabou
02:04
|

All the colors of the neon rainbow
Peek out the door and let that rustbrown mane flow
Hardly see you but I know you’re around
You couldn’t leave here cause you’re feather-boa-bound
The last thing they’d call you is bland
No need to tell you that your wallpaper is grand
Make some guests never wanna leave
Others bleed from their ears yelling “jeez”
We drank champagne and watched the glitzless mob trod
Behind those doors you’d go far beyond foxtrott
Head high in paintfumes, make the passerbys shudder
No smell on earth could make your eyelids flutter
How many mistuned pianos does it take
To give this kinda blossom just a little break
The kind of flower that defines its woods
Goes further than any other flower could
Cherie sherabou’s never made a mistake
No, scratch that, so many it makes her heart ache
Cherie sherabou’s never told a lie
Cause no one dares to try and clarify
So she will sit here and she’ll stare your bones blank
And when she sings you feel your brain change ranks
Who knows how long it’s been, who knows how long she’ll stay
Go and see her at the week’s end or a tuesday

Humpback In Time
04:13
|

There’s no space for our kind
In this time
There’s no space for peace of mind
At least not mine
No debate, just spicy lies
Useless jive
Just a race for our lives
Too bad we’re tied
Please save me, me and my baby
Please save me, don’t stave me or disintegrate me, me and my baby
They cut your daddy in half, not for his sins
But for his fins
Now we’re stuck here in this fishbowl prison tank
To swim the plank
Used to be intoxicated by the freedom
Of my whale-dom
Now all my embryo will ever know are the harpoons
Of homo atomic shroom
Please save me, me and my baby
Please save me, from this cave, we crave no rave, me and my unborn baby
Calm down thickskin mama
Wait to hear what I’ve got to tell
Let me reach in to your innards
Strike the right chord, the right tone, the right bell
Take a deep breath we need your sweet voice
We’ll save you, won’t enslave you, won’t deprive you of your baby
You’re brave to swim away into endless space, you and your untorn baby
There’ll be space for your race
In this other time
You must sing or it evaporates
If we’re late
