The
Personification Of Kathe Kollowitz
Today a great wave passed over me
Ate me whole and alive
Sadness which gives no mercy
And I let him in right away this time
I accepted his warm hands as if they were my own
Wrap around my cold little heart and try to get ahold
And I accepted his warm hands around my cold little waist and hold me
'Cause at least it was something, yeah, you were something to me
What do you say to sadness, that is comes knocking
I always let his hard ass in, just to toy with my cold little arms
And make love to me, in a way only sadness can, can
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Don't think I'm not thinking about all this
I don't even know what to say to myself these days
And sometimes I just want to let you in
I could give you the full tour of this hollow heart of mine
You'd find out rather quickly that I am
Rather empty these days
Sometimes I just want to let you love me
You could take on that great big feat
Then maybe you'd realize
Yeah maybe you'd realize that
Sometimes I just want to fuck you
And leave you begging me for mercy
You begging me for mercy
What do you say to sadness, that is comes knocking
I always let his hard ass in just to toy with my cold little arms
And make love to me, in a way only sadness can
What do you say to sadness, that is comes knocking
I always let her hard ass in just to toy with my cold little arms
And make love to me, in a way only sadness can

What did I do to be so black and blue
Oh what did I do to be so black and blue
What did I do to be so black and blue
Loving you, loving you
Had a dream last night
In it a bird came singing at my window
Said: "Girl, I love to sing for you, but
If you don't like the way I play
You can just go away, go away (go away)
From my window, from my window (go away), from my window"
What did I do to be so black and blue
Oh what did I do to be so black and blue

Loving you, loving you
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Had a dream last night (dream last night)
And I feel (last night)
Dreams wake me, dreams make me come around
To unclear a part of you
Get cold from this open window
(Laughter is from this black bird singing)

Orchard
The past is prophetic; some days I am poetic.
Some days I know the rules, some days I play with them.
I am the orchard and the tree; I am my own worst enemy.
Jump start my lungs, kick the lever. I've gotten way too clever.
I've gotten way too…clever...
The past is poetic; some days I am pathetic.
Some days I know the rules, some days I play by them.
I am the orchard and the tree; I am my own worst enemy.
Jump start my lungs, kick the lever. I've gotten way too clever.
I've gotten way too clever. I've gotten way too clever…
The day my childhood died, of old age and a broken leg.
I stayed awake, ate my mistakes, recalled an ever after.
Live.
Live laughing laughter.
Live…Live laughing laughter.

E.E. Cummings, put it there
Stormy falls loneliness
Underneath the bed remains much grieve
I feel like zipping there
I want the blood inside
I want to change smoke
You've gotta drive me to the hospital
I wanna relieve six
I wanna be best friends with ices
I want imagination without drugs
Fuck, sex without love
I got no such eye
I got no home
I got no loving
'Cause I'm on the run
Yes, I'm on the run
Still I'm on the run
Lost my reputation
somewhere in globulin
I want smuggling
Good fortune
Across all my borders
I leave for free by the ocean
It was there I lost my way
It was there I find my way
Oh I scribbling full
Yes we'll be ridiculed
I'm rattling my own bed press
There's a big sale in the middle of the war
There's a big sale in the middle of the war
Is furniture decoration
I'm heading for the train station
I got no such eye
I got no home
I got no loving

Making Static
Life As A Dream
When the heat stroke hits our city
Cryin through the corridor
And the desert falls down all upon us
No one here cares if God is
Our sanely ways go down the toilet
We float upstream in a flimsy lifeboat
Born we live, go through the trapdoor
Oh my God, it's to die for
My heart, my heart beats all a flutter
My head, my head of murk and clutter
It's time I talk, I talk in English
She says, she says that life is like a dream
Yesterday was a big news day
All things going broken
The kind of news that leaves you screaming
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
The whinin on the radio
Ladies livin in limbo
Tomorrow she'll steal the grocery money
Instead of driving in the river
Suicides can sometimes backfire
So can crowded helicopters
Imploded plans to free the world
For something that don't look a thing like freedom
My heart, my heart beats all a flutter
My head, my head of murk and clutter
It's time I talk, I talk in English
She says, she says that life is like a dream
And one day, she's gonna wake up
She's gonna wake up and she's gonna be free
She's gonna wake up
She's gonna wake up
She's gonna wake up
She's gonna be free
Merrily merrily merrily merr
Merrily merrily merrily merr
Merrily merrily merrily merr
Life is but a
Goodbye
Fresh with exhaustion down in warm grass
With the birds calling out, I drifted in visions
While in the backroom of the blue shuttered house
The old men they died, with the birds calling out
For six days he lay
talking less, talking less
Fighting with the will
The fiercest warrior would embarrass
Like a page, like a page
We did turn, we did turn him
Turn him while he lay
I learned, I did learn
Of the spirit of a man
He will yearn till that very last day
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Like a page, like a page
He will yearn, he will yearn
Into his mother's arms he'll return
I sat by his side, callin to sleep
Singing hems I'd known as a child
Shutting his eyes, a single tear did slide
To dry on his cheek in the morning
Morning did break, like it was calling his name
And there we were all saying goodbye
Fresh from my wounds, I stood up and bled
And there, I gave him away
Like a page, like a page
We did turn, we did turn him
Turn him while he lay
I learned, I did learn
Of the spirit of a man
He will yearn till that very last day
Like a page, like a page
He will yearn, he will yearn
Into his mother's arms he'll return
Beautiful Sleepyhead & the Laughing Yaks
Mt. Washington
Before we got out
I had my doubts
But walking around in the middle of the town
Freedom can be fun
Tell me all that wakes you wise
Forget the mortgage and the end of time
We'll blend together like bleeding lips
And trust that death'll be our dying wish
Come on over to the dark side
I'll keep it warm
My love, don't you worry
I got you in my arms
So we got out
First thing that we did was hit the hill top
To gaze upon the city that had given us birth
And listen to the sound of a baby's crying
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
It all starts somewhere
It all starts somewhere
And once the sun had left the autumn sky
And the laughing of the children had gone inside
We wandered through the shadows of the tall streetlights
And remembered that it all ends somewhere
It all ends somewhere
It all ends somewhere
Tell me all that wakes you wise
Forget the mortgage and the end of time
We'll blend together like bleeding lips
And trust that death'll be our dying wish
Come on over to the dark side
I'll keep it warm
My love, don't you worry
I got you in my arms
My time keeps floating away
My love
Don't you worry
I got you in my arms
50 Year
Love Affair
Hear you, talking to me
Talking to me like a dissonant chord
In a minor key on your buffalo strings
All hand tuned
To the ice cream man and a symphony
Been about, been about fifty years
Even four hundred fifty two
I could've loved you longer
Could've loved you blue
Our friends have all made their own way
Some are gone, some are here to stay
The boy's all grown we heard from him today
And your green eyes are looking at me
Yeah your gray eyes are just trying to see
Just trying to see
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Hear me
Talking to you, talking to you
Another summer come
Like a bucket of rain and the daily news
I got a story
Of a couple of lovers who made it through
Been about, been about fifty years
Even four hundred fifty two
I could've loved you longer
Could've loved you blue
I loved you blue
Our friends have all made their own way
Some are gone, some are here to stay
The boy's all grown we heard from him today
And your green eyes are looking at me
Yeah your gray eyes are just trying to see
Just trying to see
Pretty little pockets they are full
Of every little thing I ever gave to you and I love it
Well you gave to me like a giving tree
Fruit so sweet I go swinging free on your branches
Look at the time
Are you look, look, looking at the season
Just about dawn baby soon we'll be leaving
Been about, been about fifty years
Even four hundred fifty two
We go on living 'cause we don't know what else to do
Fountain
Of Youth
Racked my brain, boy was it loud
The clouds spoke to me, and we all grew down
Our roots took hold of the cracks in the ground
And the sidewalks, rose up to greet me
Hello, hello
Pleased to meet you
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Had I been awake, all of that time
Big red line across your soul
Blood running out like a funeral
I've seen the look of your eyes
How can I soothe
Blood running out
Like a fountain of youth
Living alone, the tenements are full
Of people in their bedclothes under disappointment's rule
Talking to their TVs, yeah, the pictures they talk a back
Lost somewhere in make believe with the world upon their backs
Hello, hello
Pleased to meet you
I'm a sailor on your open book
Though you write it down in code
You're a language I hope someday to know
Had I been awake, all of that time
Big red line across your soul
Blood running out like a funeral
I've seen the look of your eyes
How can I soothe
Blood running out
Like a fountain of youth
Waltz Of
The Dearly Beloved
You're my desert
The line between the sky
And where the world gets solid
And willing to divide
I corner you in the bedroom
I find you at the sink
I picture you in the morning
I reach for you in my sleep
I was in love
With the sky it's like a drug
I was in love
With my windshield at twilight
In the back room of my memory
Lives a small boy stocking shelves
Of numbered periodicals
And the dreams I don't write down
I got a typist on the bottle
My stock boy only twelve
And dozing in the showroom
My many other selves
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
I was love with the sound of it all
I was in love, with not knowing, anything at all
I was in love, with the sky it's quite a high
I was in love, with my winshield at twilight
I, I was love with the sound of it all
I was in love, with not knowing, anything at all
Big Love
Lullaby
I got a love so big
Can you believe it
I got a love so lucky
I could never take for granted
Such a sweet darling
With a good heart
Such a sweet darling
With a brave mind
You've got the world in your hands
Go running with it
Bring 'em your joy
Bring 'em your brilliance
Though they don't deserve it
I got a love like a lullaby
It can sing me to sleep at night
I got a love so righteous
So righteous and innocent
I got a love like a joy ride
And the stereo, just might carry you home
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Such a sweet darling
With a good heart
Such a sweet darling
With a brave mind
You've got the world in your hands
Go running with it
Bring 'em your joy
Bring 'em your brilliance
Though they don't deserve it
Though they don't deserve it
Though they don't deserve it
Supermarket
Would you, would you carry me
With blistered feet
How would I ever thank you
And somewhere
In the middle of the river
You'd have to let me go
Even though
No one ever taught me
How to swim up stream
I could just go with the flow
And meet you in a barrel of laughs somewhere below
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
You speak
You speak soft and low
You got a way with words
I'll never tire
And somewhere
In the middle of the night
You love me soft and slow
I'll never tire of your sneaky smile
I'll meet you in a barrel of laughs below
If you ever lose your way
Well I'll meet you in the corner of the supermarket
And carry you home
I'll carry you home
Tisis
Momar
What do you do
With eyes like that
What do you do
With a mouth like that
What do you do
With hands like that
Will you touch me all over
What do you do
With a sky like that
All dressed in blue
Longing for the night to come back
What'll you do
When I wrap you up and I touch you all over
I'm not the kind of girl to go running around
I got what I need
I'm not the kind of girl to go giving in out
I save my loving for you, for you, for you
You come to bed, when you're ready to love me
I'm all yours, like the light through the window
There's your voice, and your head on my pillow
When you touch me all over
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
How shall I say
The name of my lover
I think I'll say it
Over and over
When you touch me, will you touch me
Oh won't you touch me
I'm not the kind of girl to go running around
I got what I need
I'm not the kind of girl to go giving in out
I save my loving for you, for you, for you
Oh My God
I Miss You
I, I'm a thinking girl
Who never considered God
Never, in the sense you see
Considered him logically
So what do you do when you whittle him down
To nothing but a stone in the barren ground
What do you do when you whittle him down
To nothing but a memory from your hometown
I go wild
With possibility
I go wild
With my fragility
Oh but there's something in the stone
There's something I just know, I just know
Growing up, there was a lot of praising
A lot of singing to an empty heaven
Growing up, there's a lot of judging
Yeah they could never get enough
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
So what do you do when you whittle him down
To a way to win the white house now he's nothing but a clown
What do you do when you whittle him down
To your ticket into heaven with your bombs strapped down
I go wild, with fury
I go wild, with insecurity
Oh but there's something in the stone
There's something I just know, I just know
Plant a little seed in a baby
It's gonna grow, grow, grow
Plant a little seed in a baby girl
it's sure to grow, it's sure to grow
Well you plant a little seed in me
And it's growing, growing, growing like a weed
They sure did water me daily
'Cause fear's something I can eat
I gotta take it up
I gotta take it up
I gotta take it up
With the ones I love
My Tin Car
I got a car it's made of tin
Nobody knows what shape it's in
But I'd like to take you for a ride
When we go, well I'll drive real slow
When the world wizzes by I want you to know
I want you to know it
How'd you ever know how to hurt me
How'd you ever know how to love
How'd you ever get so wild
How'd you ever get so tough
So how about it you ready to go
We'll ride through the night to your rock'n roll tapes
And hey, will you be singing
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
I know, I know we're all made of dust
But in the meantime I really feel so much
I mean really
I feel something
I mean really
How'd you ever know how to hurt me
How'd you ever know how to love
How'd you ever get so wild
How'd you ever get so tough
How'd you ever know how to hurt me
How'd you ever know how to love
How'd you ever get so wild
How'd you ever get so tough
View From
A Blind Eye
It's all over the news
Another roadside suicide
Another hotel too
Another public place
Another mother's face
I can't see, I can't look, I can't look
But I'm greedy with my freedom
On our heads, on our heads
The blood's flowing, we go without looking, but not knowing
In my hands, in my hands, in my hands
Yeah, your loss is my loss
Even without my looking, ah my looking
Around and around and around
Calling it, calling it out
Way past ripe into rotten
Spoil no longer, no longer
It's gotten into the air
Yeah, the smell of death is everywhere
It creeps across the ocean
Like a grease fire
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
It comes pouring down on the crops and the ground
And all through the town it whispers
The names of the ones who have gone before
By the hands of the bombs and the guns and the war
I can't see, I can't look, I can't look
But I'm greedy with my freedom
It's time
We start looking
Around and around and around
Calling it, calling it out
Way past ripe into rotten
Spoil no longer, no longer
1000
Years War
Ah when the rains came
The streets filled up like rivers
And we floated down like they were our own
Our toxic lungs, oblivious to the sun
We were only, inspired by babies
Some nights it was hard, so hard to breathe
In spite of it all, we woke up every morning
In spite of it all, in spite of it all, we woke up everyday
Walkin around, so happy and gay
There, there on the hill
A man came bearing tidings
With a gun, and a grim look on his face
He said, "I crossed the river
I heard what they had to say
And there's no telling when we'll see the end"
I looked at him blankly, I said
"I don't understand my friend" he said
"Thousands of years and we're only a few days in"
Thousands of years, thousands of years
And we're only a few days in
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
In spite of it all, I wake up every morning
In spite of it all, in spite of it all
He said "I wake up everyday
I wake up cause there's no other way"
I thought it was hard
Seeing the man with the earnest face
But there on the hill, someone's carrying water
A little boy with a limp
A mother who's been grieving, grieving ever since
Grieving ever since, grieving ever since
Grieving ever since she can remember
In spite of it all, in spite of it all
They wake up every morning
In spite of it all, they wake up everyday
So many flags in the sand
Blue and white, greens yellows and reds
Don't forget the red white and blue
What are you fighting for
Fighting for a promised land
Wandering around in the desert sands
When will it ever end
When will it ever end
More and more people, never, ever more land
In spite of it all, in spite of it all
You keep on shooting your guns
Dropping your bombs, killing anyone
In spite of it all, in spite of it all
You wake up every morning
In spite of it all, you wake up everyday
Dr.
Hubris And His Vile Of Turpentine
Well you had it all along
Some days you still don't know you got it
Singing songs to the middle of the bottle
A little drunk, not nearly drunk enough
But you're falling down, down, anyhow
Children they will come and go
Always learning, how to be adults
But they get it down, down, somehow
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
In the middle of your pride
A crying hole the size of lot forty nine
Standing inside
Dr. Hubris with his vile of turpentine
And pours it down, down
Your aching throat of lies
Well you keep it down, down
With some sugar and some time
By the time you get to San Narcisco
You still won't have a clue
Crying in your hat
Over something that was never owed to you
But got it down, down, anyhow
Well you had it all along
Just remember that you got it
Singing songs and you're singing songs
Just remember that you had it all along
Yeah you got it down, down, somehow

& The Click Boom Boom
Hey little fiddle got a ride from the ransom child little fiddle got a ride
Took me out to the old truck yard with a prairie on my right and the ocean tide
Long long ago when the sky opened up and the choir sang just like a child
I had a place where I went to hide with the tall grasshoppers and my old friend
time
Boom boom, a click boom boom
Boom boom boom, fantastic
Boom boom, a click boom boom
Boom boom boom, fantastic
Back to my humble story little one get her wish little one get her wish
Played it just like a knock on the chin well I played it just like a violin
Synesthesia tastes just like a rainstorm, hears like a lover's kiss
Never told you but I know that I owe you, I owe you all of this
Boom boom, a click boom boom
Boom boom boom, fantastic
Boom boom, a click boom boom
Boom boom boom, fantastic
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake

Symphony
3: The Story
(featuring Count Bass D)
Hey hey, you never never know
Hey hey hey, you never never know
Hey hey hey, you never never know
Hey hey hey, you never you never know...
I was just a shortie wanna make some sound
Never knew I had it goin round and round
So I learned to play a little bit of violin
But most of all I learned how to listen
Round about 13 I got real bold
Made a little tape and that tape I sold
Recorded in the basement of some shady guys
So I had to tell 'em, fuck you very much and bye bye
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Then came Epic, they really tried to sell it
You'll be rich and famous if you only make a record
That has a lot of fluff, and don't forget the hooks
Babe just stick with us, and they'll be writing books
I couldn't do it so I headed for the coast
homeless and remote, I learned how to float
Then I found my love and the one I call my son
We live like forever has only just begun
Ah, ah, you never never know
Ah, ah, ah, you never you never know
Ah, ah, you never never know
Ah, ah, ah, you never you never know
(Count Bass D's verse)
Lost on a teenage sea wound up in Tennessee
Lost on a teenage see wound up in (glory)
Free I landed on my feet thanks to beats
Free I landed on my feet thanks to (glory)
Now here is something you were not told
Dwight Spitz cannot be pigeonholed
Divine Miss Em Wells, a story she cleverly tells
Hillbillies vs. the business of Beverly Hills
Another concept we all must ponder
Absence of genre makes the art grow fonder
Ah, ah, you never never know
Ah, ah, ah, you never you never know
Ah, ah, you never never know
Ah, ah, ah, you never you never know...
Symphony 4:
America's Mercy War
Mercy, have mercy on me
America, you won't get no mercy
Mercy, have mercy on me
America, do you believe in mercy
Penance, I got a penance
But I got no God
So I won't get no mercy
Money, just makes you hungry
America, there's your god
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Mercy, have mercy on me
America, you won't get no mercy
Mercy, have mercy on me
America, you won't get no mercy
I'm a lover like no other
Know how to get down on my knees, begging
Till the morning sings
Even if I board your ship
Saunter up with a swollen lip
Bleary eyed and talkin' shit
Easily we could lose our grip
So mercy, mercy
Tell the whole world your wide story
Mercy mercy, here's another allegory
Mercy mercy, Lord Lord have mercy
Mercy mercy, Lord Lord have mercy...
Mercy, have mercy on me
America, do you believe in mercy
Mercy, have mercy on me
America, you won't get no mercy
Symphony 5
Was A Surprise
Don't want to go to sleep tonight
'Cause I don't think I'll survive
Without symphony, number five
Don't want to go to sleep tonight
'Cause I don't think I'll survive
Without symphony, number five
Number five you were on my mind
For three days and three nights
Never knew I had it coming
I laid down in the street for you
Taught the neighborhood how to creep for you
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Said a few things, lovin' lovin' life
Set aside my pride and my strife
Then I got up and I went to school
Practiced till my fingers turned a shade of blue
Learned how to love it, even when I failed
Though I'll admit it, I railed
Yeah, there were days
Throwing up my hands like a woman on plane
Coming down, screaming down, running like rain
Don't want to go to sleep tonight
'Cause I don't think I'll survive
Without symphony, number five
Don't want to go to sleep tonight
'Cause I don't think I'll survive
Without symphony, number five
Symphony
6: Fair Thee Well & The Requiem Mix
Fair thee well and the requiem mix
I got a loan shark and a quick fix
For those I left behind
In a suit case of fireflies
Find you, I wanna treat you right
Never leave you begging and crying
Coming down the mountain in a wet carriage
Full speed like a spent marriage
I got more than enough to keep me whole
For once I'm not slightly out of control
Got crazy dreams when it breaks morning
Everyday, a requiem
These morning dreams are just like memories
Late night, starring through the trees
I got words for this and the way it fits
It's all about the light and the sound around it
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Fair thee well and the requiem mix
I got a feather bed and a couple of tricks
For those I left behind
For those I left behind
For those I left behind
Fair thee, fair thee
Fair thee, fair thee
Fair thee, fair thee well...
Fair thee well and the requiem mix
I got a feather bed and a couple of tricks
For those I left behind
For those I left behind
For those I left behind
Fair thee, fair thee well...
Symphony 8
& The Canary's Last Take
Where could we ever go
Where the party's all we know
'Cause this little light
Oh it's gonna shine
Yeah where could we ever go
'Cause I got a long love, of life
Yeah I got a long love, of life
This life's all I got
Gonna give it more than one chance
I get opinionated when it comes to an avalanche
Wanna see my baby dance, never feel he can't
Needs more than a few trees, needs a summer breeze
Needs more than a little air to breathe
Real sweet, with a mean streak
Needs more than blood to feed the soil
Can't keep feedin' baby on that motor oil
Or the sound of the gun fire
'Cause it's wicked and it's wild
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Where could we ever go
Where the party's all we know
'Cause this little light
Oh it's gonna shine
Yeah where could we ever go
'Cause I got a long love, of life
Yeah I got a long love, of life
More time, they keep saying more time
Like time's some sort of coalmine dove
But Canary's barely breathing
That little bird is wheezing, singing
"What we really need is love
What we really need is love"
Love, love, love, love
Where could we ever go
Where the party's all we know
'Cause this little light
Oh it's gonna shine
And where could we ever go
'Cause I got a long love, of life
Yeah I got a long love, of life
Symphony 9
& The Sunshine
Woke up in the morning and I rung the bell
It's a long way across a wishing well
Throw my pennies in one by one
They come up shining like it's just begun
They come up wishing on the light of the sun
They come up knowin' that I got no gun
Well, I'd fire off a round if I had it in me
But I know someday'll be a sunshine memory
Walking around in a kindergarten haze
Oh my, what a happy game
Tell 'em that you love 'em till the end of your days
Tell 'em that you need 'em in a bad way
Oh how happy is the look on your face
When you know somebody and you want 'em to stay
Memory is an old highway
If you drive too long you might lose your way
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Sunshine
Never had it so good
In my childhood
Bright Sunday morning...
Symphony
10: Could This Really Be The End
Could it really be the end, Number Ten
Will you dance with me
Could it really be the end, Number Ten
We'll just wait and see
And if it really is the end
I think I'll throw a big party
And all the boys and all the girls can come out
And play with me
A friendly game of hide and seek
That could, easily last for weeks, and just
When you think it's peaked
You'll forget to pour yourself another drink
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
You'll be happy
You'll be happy
You'll be happy
At my party
Could it really be the end, Number Ten
Will you dance with me
Could it really be the end, Number Ten
We'll just wait and see
And if it really is the end
I think I'll throw a big party
And all the boys and all the girls can come out
And play with me
You'll be happy
You'll be happy
You'll be happy
At my party
You'll be happy
You'll be happy
You'll be happy
At my party
Mama
Piece of It
Two, three, and
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
Just a teeny tiny little piece of it
Sunlight streaming through the open blinds
Just one piece to make all mine
Sunlight streaming through your open lips
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
Running 'round the hillside and my feet are bare
Just one piece and I'd toss away my cares
Sunlight streaming through the open door
If I ever got it I'd just want some more
If I ever got it I'd just want some more
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
Sunlight streaming through the windowpane
If I ever got it I'd just give it away
If I ever got it I'd just give it away
'Cause the world could really use a little light today
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
I want a piece of it
Get a little piece and give it away
I want a piece of it
Get a little piece and give it away

Dirty
Sneakers and Underwear
Dirty sneakers and underwear
I lost myself in your dirty hair
Lost my love in a rhapsody
Found my love in a factory
Stained knees and a mouth of glass
Spilt milk and a horse's ass
Built my house out of sass and wood
Burn it down and it's gone for good
Water, water when the babe's on fire
Fire, fire climbed the steepest spire
Slide down in my underwear
Dirty sneakers and I don't care
I just want to feel better
I just want to feel right
I just want to feel better
I just want to feel right
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Best friends in a parking lot
I lost myself but I took a shot
Lost my love in a factory
Found my love in a rhapsody
Bruised lips and my ringing ears
Go to sleep to forget your cares
Woes, woes yeah we got a few
I bit it off now I gotta' chew
Ways, ways and we got too many
Going downtown and you look so pretty
Love, love we got plenty
Got more love than we ever had money
Joy, joy we got a lot
Best friends in a parking lot
I just want to feel better
I just want to feel right
I just want to feel better
I just want to feel right
Dirty sneakers and I don't care
Burned it down and it's gone for good...

Hey kitty, kitty

I'm drowning on tomorrow
Losing all my hope
Bottom of the well
And I just lost the rope, ah
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
I had a feeling this might not end so hot
So tell me tell me doctor you know how to make it stop, ah
Give me all your medicine, give me all your pills
Your bedside manor, just to cure my ills
I'm a passenger, I'm a passenger
Give me the keys, I want to drive

If you give me the keys you know I won't survive
I'm a buffalo

Teenage boys are sure to take a tumble
The reigns, the reigns

Fire Song
My old house, gonna burn it down
That old house, gonna draw a crowd
Then you'll say you lost it in the fire
Then you'll say you lost it in the flame
Putting out old desire
So you don't have to give it name
You're alright, you're alright
You're alright til you're not
You're alright, you're alright
You're alright til you're not
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
If I gave you everything you wanted
If I gave you all you say I should
There'd be nothing left to me but honest
Smoke and glass and nails burnt out of wood
You're alright, you're alright
You're alright til you're not
You're alright, you're alright
You're alright til you're not
My old house, gonna burn it down

Do you know the stakes
Of loving somebody
Who only makes mistakes
'Cause I'm no good at being alive
I'm no good at getting by by by
I'm no good at being alive
I'm no good at getting by by by
Wake up in your bed
Wake in a cherry tree
Falling out on the dewy ground
You know I'd touch your bruised body
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Baby, do you
Do you know the cost
Of loving somebody
Who'll always be lost
'Cause I'm no good at being alive
I'm no good at getting by by by

Of being in love, just like I used to
I was in danger of falling in, falling in on you

Somebody else's

I don't wanna lose ever again
I don't wanna lose, nobody

To tell you the truth, to tell you the truth
I was born a liar
Oh to be good, good this time
In light of the dark, when I was blind
He took off in the night he gave his daughters all he could give
He had a son to fight, a face for weathering
We reconciled. We found it out
Goodnight, goodnight.
And if there's no God then what of love
What of love, what of love
I give up
Goodnight, goodnight
If we fall away in the swarm, in the swarm, in the swarm, (swamp)

You got mine
Go slow, if you can help yourself
Go slow, this time
I'm a goner
I wanna get on that bus
The one that'll ride me to your front door
Just to tell you how much
copy paste is killing the internet
I'm a goner
I wanna get on that bus
The one that'll ride me all through the night
Just to tell you how much
Richard
Don't go to sleep

Gonna say my prayers for you
Say 'em every night
Lord I want the same thing
Always want the same thing
I wanna stay alive

Pray for what you've got
And print the money at home
Let me stay alive...

Wanna know the love
You will seek it
You will find it

And if you

Wanna lose
You will seek it
You will find it

Come On
Doom, Let's Party
I've been waiting on an invitation
I've been waving like a teenager
I've been playing like it's already over
Come on doom, let's party
Come on doom, come on in
Come on doom, let's party
Get it over

Eulogy for the
Lucky
Can't make ice in the desert, can't fool the heavens
Don't make me feel better, don't want to feel blessed
In the furnace that made us, that's where I will rest
And for the rest, real suffering
No one's gonna save us, gonna be no Jesus
No personal Jesus, gonna save us
Luck isn't freedom, they're not even brothers
Luck's just a way of life, we've grown accustom
My luck is my greed, luck is having a news feed
I got enough, enough is too much
No one's gonna pay down the debts of our daddy
No one gonna clean the whole house
No one gonna love us madly, give us mouth to mouth
No one gonna save us, from ourselves
How does it go, the earth will inherit
Remember our gentleness, forget our excesses
Just keep the music, and fuck all the rest of it
yeah, fuck all the rest of it. yeah, fuck all the rest of it
No one's gonna save us, gonna be no Jesus
No personal Jesus, gonna save us
We need each other to save us
Misconceptions on Forever
Out there, in the dark, everything is moving
Make me that brave. I want to be out moving
Without the lights, without the lights on
Take my body, make it stop humming.
I want to be still, I want to be something
Alive. Alive. In the dark moving
Alive, alive, in the dark moving
Out there, in the dark, everything is moving
Make me, that brave. I want to be out moving
Without the lights, without the lights on
Take my heart, make it stop wanting
I want to be here I want to be someone
Alive. Alive. In the dark moving
Alive, alive, in the dark moving
Alive. Alive. In the dark moving
I Need A Placebo
Come back news night, give me meaning
Come back brother
I want you to come back night cap
'Cause I lost my God, my God
I asked for small relief, all I got was free will
Set the table in mono
Want a drink, but not the bottle
Pour a little out, for all the days I lost to
Pour a little out for all the days I lost to misery, some small desire
Relieve me
I need a placebo
I need water
I need
I need
I need
Ruthie
Wish we were getting on a plane,
I wish you were running your hand through my hair
Say my name. Say my name
Honey take me away from here
Can you hold it there
Can you carry, can you steer
Is it too much, this burden to share
I can promise I can pay
I'll return it some day
But honey please please take me anyway
Honey please, take me away
On the other side of this mean twilight there's a clearing, or so I hear
Like a child too late, like a mother in the street
Like an old cliché
Honey take me, take me away
Rock'N Roll Man
You don't have to worry about a thing
Time's been rearranged and you are new again
You're a rock n roll man
You're a new idea

You don't have to sing another song
There's a choir inside of you, just sing along
You're a rock n roll man
You are singing with them
Goddamn Goddamn

I will be there for you if you need to dream on
What are you so afraid of (honey)

Everybody's got a new friend in you
Singing all the new songs forever and ever and ever, amen

Your
Apocalypse Was Fab
What's better than understanding
What's better than knowing the price of your sin
What's better than understanding
Don't you dare say ignorance
One bright February, we were all showing some skin
The gods they were laughing
They were playing their cards
They were placing their bets all in
They said, "play now, play now, play now, you pay later for price of this sin"
Gotta come down, gotta come down, gotta come down
Don't wait for me, no
I grew weary of the threshold
Yeah I know, I know, I like to see
Take matters like that in your own hands
You might drown on your own company
Oh but the gods they were laughing
Can you believe, they were calling me a fool
They said, "play now play now play now, you'll pay later, for the price of this
too"
Gotta come down, gotta come down, gotta come down
Don't wait for me, no
What's better than understanding
What's better than knowing just right where you stand
What's better than understanding
Don't you dare say ignorance
Don't you dare say ignorance
Hymn For The
New World
I didn't want to go away so soon
I wasn't done with you.
I didn't want to give it up like this
I'm not prepared to miss.
I didn't want it bad enough
So go on, get it going on in a new world
Hallelujah, in a new world
Can't we just carry on
Can't we just carry a little longer
Can't we just get it!
I didn't want to look away just yet
I want my provenance
I didn't want to tell the truth
You know that's when it's time to go
I didn't want it bad enough.
There is no going on with it
Everything you know you learn to quit
There is no going on with it
Everything you love you learn to quit
There is no going on with it
Everything we love we learn to quit
So go on, go on, get it going on in a new world
Hallelujah, in a new world

Two Dogs
Tethered Inside
Two dogs tethered inside
My heart a fighter
See who I am in the lion's den
Of myself against myself, against them
Try to trust the living or the dead
Come on, hurt me
Come on, hurt me
Come on, hurt me
Come on, hurt me
Where do I run, when I run, run unhooked
My heart a fighter
Broke the rope, but I come, come back
Give me one last look
Give me one last lap
Sleep, sleep
Let me run like I did that day
When I knew the love of my own body
When I knew the love of my own body
Come on, hurt me
Come on, hurt me
Come on, hurt me
Come on, hurt me
All Burn No Bridge
Don't go easy on me
Not for the things I have seen
I cannot, I cannot unsee
I cannot, I cannot unsee
Even when I heard the sound
I stayed in the silence of me
I cannot, I cannot unhear
I cannot, I cannot unhear
Don't go easy
Don't go easy
Don't go easy, easy on me
Don't go easy
Don't go easy on me
(On me, on me, on me, on me)
Give my regards to the end
To the chaos in remembering
When I'm all burn, no bridge
When I'm all burn, no bridge
Don't go easy
(Don't go easy oh easy)
Don't go easy
(Don't go easy on me)
Don't go easy
(Don't go easy on me)
Don't go easy on me
(Don't go, go, go, go)
All burn when I'm no bridge
When I'm no bridge
All burn when I'm no bridge
When I'm no bridge
All burn when I'm no bridge
When I'm no bridge
All burn when I'm no bridge
When I'm no bridge
All burn when I'm no bridge
When I'm no bridge
Come On, Kiki
Say something, say something
Really wish I would say something
Come on Kiki, don't untie me
Can you see me, see me
If you send a search party
I'm not leaving, but I want you
Want you to find me, want you to find me
Meanwhile
You don't stop wanting
You don't stop wanting
You just want differently
I want more, I want more
Give me more, give me more
All I want is more
I want more, I want more
Give me more, give me more
All I want is more
Dancing, dancing
Really wish I was dancing
Somewhere in the street
But I forgot to move my feet
Oh my body, my body
Don't forgive me now
Just give me some more
All I want is more
All I want
I want more, I want more
Give me more, give me more
All I want is more
I want more, I want more
Give me more, give me more
All I want is more
Meanwhile
I don't stop wanting
I don't stop wanting
I just want differently
Meanwhile
I don't stop asking
I don't stop asking
I just want differently
I want more, I want more
Give me more, give me more
All I want is more
I want more, I want more
Give me more, give me more
All I want is more

Got A Problem
Tie a cord, tie a cord and hold me down
Tie a cord, tie a cord and hold me down
Tie a cord, tie a cord and hold me down
Tie a cord, tie a cord and hold me down
That's why you love me, that's why you love me
That's why you love me when I can't be loved

That's why you love me when I can't be loved
Throw a little grass out, throw a little seed
Throw a little grass out, then go lie among the weeds
Then go lie among the weeds
Then go

That's why you love me, that's why you love me
That's why you love me when I can't be loved
That's why you love me, that's why you love me

Throw a little grass out, throw a little seed
Throw a little grass out, then go lie among the weeds
Then go lie among the weeds

Love Saves The Day
I wanna go home
Seeing is alright
I'm just a fire
Burn everything in sight
I wanna go home
I wanna go out
I wanna go home
I wanna go out
All of my acres
The wet ones, the dry ones
They've all been devoured
So now, baby, now what
I wanna go home
I wanna go out
I've been complicit
Feels like a kid with a secret
I've been complicit
Feels like a kid with a secret
Love saves the day
Love saves the day
I wanna go home
Seeing is alright
I'm just a fire
Burn everything in sight
I wanna go home (love saves the day)
I wanna go out (love saves the day)
All of my acres
The wet ones, the dry ones
They've all been devoured
So now, baby, now what
I wanna go home
I wanna go out
I wanna go home
I wanna go out
I've been complicit
Feels like a kid with a se-
Nothing's gonna hurt me now
Nothing's gonna hurt me now
Nothing's gonna hurt me now
Nothing's gonna hurt, hurt, hurt me now
I wanna go home (love saves the day)
I wanna go out (love saves the day)
I wanna go home (love saves the day)
I wanna go out, out, out (love saves the day)
Oracle at Dog
(Poem and lyrics by Timmy Straw)
I told you the words to it oriole
Now when an ear come
Say it right, say it right
Give the true kiss
And there is no more two faces but one stone
Fruit flies, the lights all on as if none
Live here but life
And stingily, stingingly the song
Like in your voice the evening
"Smelled like trees"
Meaning how to hold a thing one loved
And how describe custody
If incantation is national
Say a nation is a plane of
Equivalences galloping
One by one by one by one by one
One by one by one by one by one
One by one by one by one by one
One by one by one by one by one
One by one by one by one by one
One by one by one
Onto the blade
A blade in sunlight
Far, far offstage
There, grass and weeds and what
Cassette tape
In the culverts
Shimmering the song
Two dogs tethered inside
But the scale changes
Then the key
And how to hold a thing one knew
And how authority
Arnie and
Bill to the Rescue
She said, "I'd riot"
When she heard about Elijah
She cried, a little shy then
Choking on the obscene in the open
I put my hand out like a puppet
Inside I was wooden and repugnant
I said
Arnie and Bill, Arnie and Bill to the rescue
Arnie and Bill, Arnie and Bill to the rescue
Arnie and Bill this time
Later on I made her cry again
When I told of the night that Arnie died and
The ambulance wouldn't touch him
So the whole household began erupting
All that was left in the delirium
We're the stars that had always been above him
I said
Arnie and Bill, Arnie and Bill to the rescue
Arnie and Bill, Arnie and Bill to the rescue
Arnie and Bill this time
When the lights went out that evening
We were two children who believed in
A world so endless and extravagant
So vast we barely did inhabit it
Without the reckless understanding
Someday even we would abandon it
I said
Arnie and Bill, Arnie and Bill to the rescue
Arnie and Bill, Arnie and Bill to the rescue
Arnie and Bill this time
The Dress
Rehearsal
All day the trees are praying
I go down in their splendor
Then I am praying too
Then I am praying too
Somewhere in the night
That creek turned to a river
Now we are all banks
Now we are all banks
Love happened here
Love happened here
Where nothing is still
Love happened here
Love happened here
(Here)
All night the fox is outside
Knowing how to live forever
While I'm in here
While I'm in here
Trying to be an animal
Search your delicate mind
For all that you took
To the dress rehearsal
To the dress rehearsal
Love happened here
Love happened here
Where nothing is still
Love happened here
Love happened here
Love happened here
Love happened here

Becomes The Color
( Stoker OST )
I became the color
I become the daughter and the son
When the feast is over
Welcome to another one
Lay my body down down
Down upon the water
Wrapped up in the clothes of my mother and my father
Oh this is longing
I wanna be complete
I was waiting round in a little jump seat
I had a hunger
A mouthful of interludes
You'll do anything just to get rescued
I had longing
Isn't that the key
Take take taste taste taste sweet
They said I'd gone south
I'd gone asunder
They don't know hunger
Or what I been under
They were all laughing
Thought I was debris
I was just free
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
We were ready to behave
But there's no freedom
Without no key
Whatever you think you've become
Don't worry about it dear
It's where you come from
Oh no no, take me from my misery
There's no such thing as living comfortably
There's no such thing as going home
I'm not formed of myself alone
All the other others they'll just fade to black
When you think you have me's when I don't look back
Keep on laughing, calling after me
Keep on laughing, I'm just free
We were ready to behave
But there's no freedom
Without no key
Whatever you think you've become
Don't worry about it dear
It's where you come from
Beggars
(Button:Pusher feat. Emily Wells / Never Look Back
LP)
I was sure we had another mile in us
I was sure we'd do it right off the cuff
And then we could ride it wild and rough
Now look at us, lying in the dust
Oh good Lord, somebody save me
Heartbreak's just another form of slavery
Desire and my broken wit
Here's my heart on a hundred dollar bill
What would you do
If I told you no
If I told you yes
What would you do
If I told you no
If I told you yes
Beggars, they can't be choosers
Beggars, they can't be thieves
Beggar, I'm just another
Beggars, down on their knees
So last night on the telephone
Changing subject, no chance of home
Check me in, I need a room, I need a key
Would you expect any less of me
Hiding out in the black bomb shell
Drop me off at heartbreak hotel
Oh good Lord, somebody save me
Heartbreak not for rookies or for babies
If you got a case, drop me a line
We can sit by the water and pound it by
What would you do
If I told you no
If I told you yes
What would you do
If I told you no
If I told you yes
Beggars, they can't be choosers
Beggars, they can't be thieves
Beggar, I'm just another
Beggar, down on my knees
Beggar, they can't be choosers
Beggar, down on my knee
When'd ya get so
When'd ya get so
When'd ya get so under my skin
When'd ya get so
When'd ya get so
When'd ya get so under my skin
Beggars, they can't be choosers
Beggar, they can't be thieves
Beggar, I'm just another
Beggar, down on my knees
Beggars, they can't be choosers
Beggars, they can't be friends
Beggar, I'm just another
Yeah with my open knee
Beggar, they can't be choosers
Beggar, they can't be thieves
Beggar, I'm just another
Beggar, down on my knees
Down on my knees
Down on my knees
Judas
(Depeche Mode cover)
Is simplicity best
Or simply the easiest
The narrowest path
Is always the holiest
So walk on barefoot for me
Suffer some misery
If you want my love
If you want my love
Man will survive
The harshest conditions
And stay alive
Through difficult decisions
So make up your mind for me
Walk the line for me
If you want my love
If you want my love
You can fulfill
Your wildest ambitions
And I'm sure you will
Lose your inhibitions
So open yourself to me
Risk your health for me
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
Juicy
(The Notorious B.I.G song / Dirty EP)
It was all a dream
I used to read Word Up magazine
Salt'n'Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine
Hangin' pictures on my wall
Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped
Smokin' weed and bamboo, sippin' on private stock
Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack
With the hat to match
Remember Rappin' Duke, duh-ha, duh-ha
You never thought that hip hop would take it this far
Now I'm in the limelight 'cause I rhyme tight
Time to get paid, blow up like the World Trade
Born sinner, the opposite of a winner
Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner
I'm blowin' up like you thought I would
Call the crib, same number same hood
It's all good
And if you don't know, now you know
You know very well who you are
Don't let em hold you down, reach for the stars
You had a goal, but not that many
'cause you're the only one I'll give you good and plenty
I made the change from a common thief
To up close and personal with Robin Leach
And I'm far from cheap, I smoke skunk with my peeps all day
Spread love, it's the Brooklyn way
The Moet and Alize keep me pissy
Girls used to diss me
Now they write letters 'cause they miss me
I never thought it could happen, this rappin' stuff
I was too used to packin' gats and stuff
Now honies play me close like butter played toast
From the Mississippi down to the east coast
Condos in Queens, indo for weeks
Sold out seats to hear Biggie Smalls speak
And if you don't know, now you know
You know very well who you are
Don't let em hold you down, reach for the stars
You had a goal, but not that many
'cause you're the only one I'll give you good and plenty
Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis
When I was dead broke, man I couldn't picture this
50 inch screen, money green leather sofa
Got two rides, a limousine with a chauffeur
Phone bill about two G's flat
No need to worry, my accountant handles that
And my whole crew is loungin'
Celebratin' every day, no more public housin'
Thinkin' back on my one-room shack
Now my mom pimps a Ac' with minks on her back
And she loves to show me off, of course
Smiles every time my face is up in The Source
We used to fuss when the landlord dissed us
No heat, wonder why Christmas missed us
Birthdays was the worst days
Now we sip champagne when we thirst-ay
damn right I like the life I live
'Cause I went from negative to positive
And if you don't know, now you know
You know very well who you are
Don't let em hold you down, reach for the stars
You had a goal, but not that many
'cause you're the only one I'll give you good and plenty
Take It Easy San Francisco
(Dirty EP)
Tell me what you've done to me
Can we please take it easy?
It be so lovely like a gloomy afternoon
to just take it easy with you.
Where do you go with your wiles & your woes?
Can we please take it slow?
Can we please take it easy?
Can we please take it easy?
Half of a prank is knowin the ropes
but a tight walkers toes are well worth the show
I got a dime for every song that jives and
wouldn't you know that I'm half broke?
Can we please take it easy?
Can we please take it easy?
Don't stop talking to me.
When we whisper something sweet
and we're riding home, riding home in the evening
and I'm falling asleep.
Don't stop talking to me.
Don't stop talking to me.
...
Don't stop talking to me.
Don't stop talking to me.
Don't I have it pretty little darling
Don't I have it made?
Don't I have it pretty little darling
Don't I have it made?

I know you won't listen
To a single word I say
I'm going to tell you anyway
I'm going to tell you anyway
And I know you need to hear it
I know you wanna seek
If you can keep quite, I'll tell you a secret
I'd tell you that love is not a meal
It's not an obstacle, of course
It's not the place to put all your desires
Love is the place that keeps the fire on
The fires
The fires
The fires
The fires
The fires
The fires
Love, love will take care of you
Love, love will take care of you
It'll be new
It'll be new
Love, love is not new
Love, love is not new
So go on, be the fool
Go on, be the fool
Whiskey And Rags
(Dirty EP)
Last night all the stars fell from the sky I know.
Cause I was there standing there tonight.
It longer than a lulliby, I, I
I, sometimes I just want to say goodbye sad I,
No it doesn't leave me high feelin, feelin
But whiskey and rags will make it all better
Whiskey and rags will make it all better
Love, love come back to me
Love, love would you make it all better
I want you, I want you
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
I want you real bad
I want you bad
My heart, my hearts got a hole in it cause, I
I'm sober but your sorry stitch near I
Try to make another fit, I, I
I sometimes, I just want to hold you tight darlin
Whisper in your ear how I'm feeling, feeling
My sore arms will make it all better
Whiskey and rags will make it all better
Love, love come back to me
Love, love would you make it all better
I want you, I want you
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
I want you real bad
I want you bad
Love I want you bad like I want no one
Get you in my big old car, we'll have some fun
Roll around town just like we were young
Forget, forget, what's to come
Forget, forget, your swollen heart
Forget, someday that we must part.
All you kids and your rock and roll music
Turn it up, Turn it up. Never loose it.
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
I want you real bad
I want you bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
Love, I want you real bad
I want you real bad
I want you bad
