I Want It!

His eyes are magnified, he’s everywhere, he’s watching
He was the boy, a big Starr
He said, “I’m a big killer, a fix filler
Now won’t you step in my car?”
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone, alone
He said, “Baby don’t you wanna know everybody’s got to go!
Baby don’t you wanna know everybody’s got to go!
It’s a crime that your mind can’t take time to unwind”
But now I’m feelin’ disowned
And I can’t leave it alone
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone, alone
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone
I want it!
I said I want it!
I just can’t leave it alone, alone

Venus Knows
02:35
|

|
I’ve been thinking about writing less and screaming more words
I don’t know
Venus knows
And I’ve been selling sheep that I used to count, goodbye to my dreams
I don’t know
Venus knows
Watch her glow
I love you so
I’m what you fear, what you love and you hold dear
When you’re away it’s just no fun, you’ve hear me say
That I’ll be getting high by then
And you’ll be coming round, my friend
See I’ve forgotten how to speak
And you’ve robbed every tear from my cheek
Venus crawls to watch me fly and
Wraps her drawers till they’re knee high and
Cuts my qualms that I might die, said
Cuts my qualms that I might die, said
Cuts my qualms that I might die, said
Cuts my qualms that I might die, said
Cuts my qualms that I might die

Make It, Tomorrow
02:28

Where do you go when you turn out the light?
How might it show when you’re up late at night?
And the corner store clerk don’t know your name
And all these funny people look the same
And you wonder, is it you that’s insane?
But you’ll make it, tomorrow
Tomorrow
How can you see when you’re gazing inside?
It’s easy to be but it’s harder to try
When ink on parchment is your only friend
And you’re not sure if shits all up the bend
And tonight forces no probable end
But you’ll get there, tomorrow
That bird is flying low
That bird is flying low
Please don’t resign your impeccable thoughts
Let your time bidet, don’t impose on your walk
In and out of peppermint you breathe so free
And your mother and your father sow your seeds
And I guess there’s no room in here left for me
And I guess there’s no room in here left for me
And I guess there’s no room in here left for me
But I’ll get there, tomorrow

Suburban
02:57
|
|||
|
Some people just have pretty faces
Behind that is just empty spaces
I may be sore cause I am not one
Beautiful and fun
Beautiful and loved
Most of the time I think I'm looking rough
Simple and thin
A permanent grin
They always think that they're
In the spotlight
High on their lives
I think I'm just jealous
Cause they're always on my mind
Why are they all suburban?
And I'm this
Which ain't that bad
But sometimes you can't help but think
Simple and thin
A permanent grin
They always think that they're
In the spotlight
High on their lives
I think I'm just jealous
Cause they're always on my mind
There is no end to this
I know
Can't let my emotions take me for a go
Someday I'll see

Drought
03:07
|
|||
|
Sleep tight
City sleeps alright
And it don't get up or down
Can't keep goin' round
And I fall into tears
And how many years till I get out?
Please give an end to Drought
Same train every goddamn day
I've been thinkin' 'bout what I am
Stuck in dull essence
Never been so clear
Don't wanna be here
And I fall into tears
For how many years till I get out?
Please give an end to Drought
Dried up
Flushed out
Turned drone syndrome
In Drought
How many years till I get out?
Please give an end to Drought
Please give an end to Drought
Please give an end to Drought

Seeing You in Springtime
03:04

Seeing you in springtime
Where have you been?
Caught a whiff of you blowing through the cedar trees
Peace of mind
Seeing you in springtime
Suit em up for little league
Hurry up, we'll be late
Hit the ball past the wall
We've won the game
Those young times
Seeing you in springtime
Say goodbye to cold winter fronts
Wasted well in snowy months
Moments colored in white pastels
Say hello to spring bells
Where have you been?
Runnin through shine and rain
Slipped on wet limestone
Scrape my knee and it bleeds
Better go home
Peace of mind
Seeing you in springtime
Seeing you in springtime

I'm gonna stick to you
I'm gonna stick to you
I'm gonna stick to you
I'm gonna stick like glue
And I will always be true
And I will always be true
And I will always be true
You know I do it for you
You know I do it for you
I'm gonna stick to you
I'm gonna stick like glue
And I will always be true
You know I do it for you
I'm gonna stick to you
I'm gonna stick like glue
I'm gonna
Stick
So don't walk out that door
Please don't walk out that door
Don't walk out that door
Like they all did before
Like they all did before
It's such a shame to cry
It's such a shame to cry
It's such a shame to cry
When you don't even know why
When you don't even know why
I'm gonna stick to you
I'm gonna stick like glue
And I will always be true
You know I do it for you
Do it for you
Do it for you
Do it for you
Please don't walk out that door
Like they all did before
It's such a shame to cry
When you don't even know why
I'm gonna stick to you
I'm gonna stick like glue
And I will always be true
I'm gonna
Stick

Phaser blind
Complacent hours never stick and align
Spin around
You caught connection but I flinch at the sound
Barely stoked
I found a reason not to dig it so close
Faked my fear
I felt a liar and I looked in the mirror
Post my loan, baby!
You can take my home
Stained and drove crazy
But now you reap what you sow!
Wrecked my ride
Turbo powered with a dessert of pride
(Fuck) Fuck me up
Tear my heart out with a surgical glove
Post my loan, baby!
You can take my home
Stained and drove crazy
But now you reap what you sow!
But now you reap what you sow!
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been thinking
Post my loan, baby!
You can take my home
Stained and drove crazy
But now you reap what you sow!
But now you reap what you sow!
But now you reap what you sow!
But now you reap what you sow!

Fun-Do / Outro
05:25
|
|||
|
Oh, the people max out and they stick around
Oh, the people shut down and they get real tired
Twenty minutes prior streets were filled up
Voices blaring, cars jamming, bout to erupt
Telling everyone to stay inside
Telling everyone, "don't run, please just hide"
Bored, walkin along to our own drum
Bashing here, crashing there, getting real rough
Fun-Do
Sometimes I tell myself that I'm alright
Fun-Do
But then I turn around and see the light
Fun-Do
Rockin through the night, we're ragin now
Rockin through the night in our own house
Bouncin off the walls like a metal spring
Bending leeft, Bending right, itching to sing
Real tempting to peek through the door
We'll be stuck in here until we're twenty-four
Seeking a way to clear our minds
Drink it, eat it, smoke it, we're out of time
Fun-Do
Sometimes I tell myself that I'm alright
Fun-Do
But then I turn around and see the light
Fun-Do
Feet firmly planted in the ground
Stuck in attention hour after hour
Will we ever get a green light?
Burn it, turn it on givin us a sight
I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking about writing less and screaming more words
I've been thinking about writing less and screaming more words
I've been thinking about writing less and screaming more words

I wanna go for a walk with you and
Make sure all the things you never said are true and
Confirm that the water in the sky is still blue
These are the things that we remember to do
I'm gonna build a big boat of hay and
Fly it down a freeway out in central LA and
Scorch the soddy earth with all the things I might say
These are the things that we will do today
Now once I get there I will start up my truck and
I'll plant myself a garden cause it was a pick-up and
I spilt it on the ground cause we'll never pick up
These are the things that we will do for love
I'll read about it in my favorite suit and
Tattoo it on my body as everlasting proof and
Remember that it's better to be dismal than aloof
This is how we may uncover the truth
