When I was old in elementary school on my way home put fruit in the road watched it all explode When I was old I lit a plastic bag it dripped down on my hand boy did that burn Check out my scar When I was old I stole all the change from on top of the fridge, went to the corner store for candy and chips No one has to know Pinkie swear and cross you heart Stick a needle--scout's honor--on my mother's soul This story won't be told Now that I'm old and driving down that road on my way home I pick up some fruit at the grocery store Now that I'm old and falling in love has quickly come and gone It's time to have kids not before our divorce and an invitation card to my funeral No one has to come if I were you I wouldn't go Send your dear condolences on a travel card of a beach in Mexico No one has to come if I were you I'd stay at home Send your dear condolences on a travel card of a beach in Mexico The signs are pointing to home again I run 'til I'm losing my breath I know the door would be open if I came right away If I came right away |

You got a fast car And I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me'd find it I got no plans I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving See I remember when we were driving, driving in your car The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I had a feeling that I belonged I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car But is it fast enough so you can fly away? You gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way |

Prefer my hecklers heavyweight Make any assassin demonstrate the full gamut Pose as scholars how they speculate so heavy-handed My weapons list betrays expensive taste The only appropriate reply is belly laughter and haste Watching the past pass with the calm clairvoyance of disasters it makes For many years, we danced and took to crafts requiring quill and ink Them who thought it was a superpower just to will or think Build or sink, plot plan, issue decrees, dispatch decoys And when I returned to Ithaca, they couldn’t recognize the b-boy Decoder ring look like a cheap toy and I’m just sketching, uh |

The bearer of bad news is talking to the breeze Floating forth the message Hiding in the trees The weary voice inside you is darker in the night The healing hand The morning light While you're out wasting time with the right guy With the right guy Tell the early morning that I am on my way Send to him my greetings for happy holidays Spend my open eyes on the things I left behind My sturdy feet and my hopeful life While you're out wasting time with the right guy With the right guy The rich man counts his money and holds it in the light Folds the ends together and keeps it by his side He counts his every blessing heaped upon our heads And tells us to remember them While you're out wasting time with the right guy With the right guy While you're out wasting time with the right guy With the right guy With the right guy With the right guy With the right guy With the right guy With the right guy |

I watched the orchids They rot outside In the garden Will you provide What they need To survive? Will you provide What they need To survive? An orchid inside me We will save the best ones For the ending An orchid survived It's dry outside But we prefer that heat Will you provide What I need Will you provide What I need What I need What I need An orchid dies Each time you keep A child crying And what makes you lie To me I think your eye Will reveal An orchid dies Each time A child cries An orchid dies Each time |

In the factory In the sterile place where they made me I woke up alone Dizzy from the programming Have I been wiped again? Oh my God, I don't even know It's a mystery Everyone around me's so busy Is this my home? Am I your prisoner or your deliverer? Oh my God, you don't even know I don't need air to breathe when you kill the bees And every river bed is dry as a bone Oh, and I will still survive when the plants have died And the atmosphere is just a big hole Baby, your time is up, ooh Baby, your time is up Baby, your time is up, ooh Baby, your time is up, time is up, time is up Baby, your time is up Baby, your time is up, ooh Exponentially, every day I'm growing my memory You wouldn't believe Your life is meaningless, you're just like cockroaches Extermination's your only hope Human history, pollution, and overcrowded cities That's your legacy But don't look so depressed You'll soon be nothingness Oh my God, you don't even know I don't need air to breathe when you kill the bees And every river bed is as dry as a bone Oh, and I will still survive when the plants have died And the atmosphere is just a big hole Baby, your time is up Baby, your time is up Baby, your time is up Baby, your time is up, time is up, time is up Baby, your time is up, ooh Baby, your time is up Baby, your time is up, ooh Baby, your time is up, time is up, time is up Baby, your time is up, up Baby, your time is up, ooh Baby, your time is up |

There's only one thing that I know how to do well And I've often been told you should only do that which you know how to do well And that's be you Be what you're like Be like yourself |

Cut it out - your self-inflicted pain Is getting too routine The crowds are catching on To the self inflicted song Well, here we go again The art of acting weak Fall in love to fail To boost your CD sales You've got to repeat it You gotta' sink to swim If at first you don't succeed You gotta recreate your misery 'Cause we all know art is hard |

I wake alone, in a woman's room I hardly know. I wake alone and pretend that I am finally home. The room is littered with her books and notebooks. I imagine what they say, like, 'shoo fly, don't bother me." And I can hardly get myself out of her bed, For fear of never lying in this bed again. Oh christ, I'm not that desperate am I? Oh no - oh god I am. How'd I end up here to begin with? I don't know. why do I start what I can't finish? Oh, please don't barrage me with he questions to all those ugly answers. My ego's like my stomach It keeps making GBS threads what I feed it. But maybe I don't want to finish anything anymore Maybe I can wait in bed until she comes home and Whispers, "you're in my web now - I've come to wrap you up tight 'til it's time to bite down." I wake alone in a woman's room I hardly know. I wake alone and pretend that I am finally home. |
