New Age Creation
04:42
|

the universe comes on thick
unrequested and politick
as it tightens i knightly tie
the rope swingin' me out to dry
i got myself into a situation
beginner hoodoo
new age creation
a bit too much lull
i've been breathin' but livin' small
how many different ways to say
been disastery all day?
you came by high
station to station
all TVC15
a new age creation
i can feel something
workin' ways into me
hot divinity
i'm free eternally
i'm free somewhere i'll always be
set your crystal by my window
wall to wallpaper prism my soul
sage me outta my mind
it's exhausting being this kind
never really one for total invasion
my unsteady chore
my new age creation
if you read me, aura
what's your location
i'm in the market for-a
new age creation

I Want That Feeling Back
03:19
|
|
||
|
as i shot your rifle
straight up in the air
and took cover
the shit came down everywhere
on us
somewhere on our way
we decided not today
that's enough
it's important to lack
fuck that
i want that feeling back
i'm the greatest poet
this side of the light
on my living room table
on my right
i'll be here all night
crackin' jokes 'til i crack
i want that feeling back
an entryway
a possibility
you're feral verite
and the one for me
at the roller rink
there's no time to think
out back
get the knack
pontiac
i want that feeling back

Peter Lorre
04:34
|
|

beginner chords get me goin'
keep me occupied, offa the jazz
where the sound is violent
the mood bleak
where i've fallen in love
more than i speak
how should i address
your holiness
i'm all religions lately
and a mess
i must confess
to who exactly
sometimes it's peter lorre
trapped in another story
where cigarettes come with the truth
a horse is named "shame drags your dreams"
the talk is fast, this action life
i've got just
enough left for you
i can fit you in sometime
after two
or three
before words escape me
my lips smack
when i talk to my quack
she just says i'm thirsty
but that's why i'm here
and that's why you're there
are we helping each other at all?

We're Not Forever
03:49
|
|

i can't, baby, i say
i couldn't possibly today
the best time to reach me is never
ten times tellin' you
baby, these times aren't new
we're not forever
oh no, the rain has stopped
sun's been dropped
life no longer to weather
no more you and me
about it so knowingly
we're not forever
we're not forever
just a casual span
just do whatever
you feel you can
i know there's no reason
no real plan
why we're not forever
i'll never understand
a little loneliness
however brief
this is not a test
but final relief
if you are happy
i don't really care
we're not forever
baby, we're nowhere

Mod Skirt

i take it in and live with it and resell
i rake it in i gotta reiki racket that's goin' well
i understand process is pain and, baby, this is gonna hurt
you stay cool in your black and white checkered mod skirt
underneath the go-go ball everything is always more
forget it all and shatter with me all over that go-go floor
tomorrow symphony tonight hoi polloi retrovert
you stay cool in your black and white checkered mod skirt
i heard lines bein' run from a second story porch
i climbed your conduit inside of me you blew your torch
i said hello you never know, honey, i'm no expert
you stay cool in your black and white checkered mod skirt
your hair's enough wild i'm sure there's a joke in there somewhere
through the forest i explored all signs ignored i'm somewhat here
my part-time heels and half-off deals i saved the date for this shirt
you stay cool in your black and white checkered mod skirt
i snuck onto your bookshelf footnoted myself into a crease
you come off blondie but what gets you goin' is war and peace
civility is all you ask for inside of this yurt
you stay cool in your black and white checkered mod skirt
it gets complicated after six verses i gotta end
i probably shoulda stopped a while ago besides you woulda told me right my friend
even though i'm better in print i'll compromise, consider, convert
with you cool in your black and white checkered mod skirt
you stay cool in your black and white checkered mod skirt
maybe it's the same drag for you?

Kinda Power
03:57
|
|

|
i'm not sayin' it to be cruel
pretty fucked or pity the fool
i've been all those things before
you don't have that kinda power over me anymore
i hope i don't come across smug
or dishonor your honorary designer drug
or feel alright when i walk into your door
you don't have that kinda power over me anymore
no new complications
baby, i'm so gone
i'm gettin' better at betterin' me
i make amends, stay bullshit free
i may not know just what i have in store
but i know i know you don't have no power over me no more
i'm speakin' my language again
i remember words and they wonder where i've been
it all spilled out when i divided the pour
you don't have that kinda power over me no more

i got the keys to bobby keys' bungalow
i got the keys to bobby keys' bungalow
everything is low, blow
i got the keys to bobby keys' bungalow
i had young feelings for ol' lana shields
i had young feelings for ol' lana shields
so much protection underneath those force fields
i had young feelings for ol' lana shields
i found my strength in stephanie powers
i found my strength in stephanie powers
she pulled me through some desperate hours
i found my strength in stephanie powers
my god i limboed with cha-cha charo
my god i limboed with cha-cha charo
forever limboin', how low can i go
my god i limboed with cha-cha charo
i can't stop shakin'
i tried to write some gone beat poetry
i tried to write some gone beat poetry
with which i could support neither you nor me
i tried to write some gone beat poetry
i can't stop shakin'....no more

Alright If I Know
02:01

time moving faster towards immediate disaster
and you feel it all the time
money's getting slower and i'm feeling so much lower
than i have in some time
i'm alright if i know
i'm alright if i know
i'm alright if i know tonight
if i know, if i know, if i know, if i know
if i know you're alright
going through a phase, sleeping through my days
working at pretending
i'm the one you need, i've been following your lead
through the credits to the ending
i'm alright.....
give me your love tonight

On The Breakdown Line
04:09
|
|
||
|
alone i realize the space
i've come to recognize my place
no longer searchin' for a sign
i know just where it's at
on the breakdown line
inside my mind you were ready to go
and dance your disco
and make a mess of my time
all clutters and low vibrations
on the breakdown line
the breakdown line is nothing new
i've called for years
and the years have called for you
we all find out in our own time
what it's all about on the breakdown line
everything a song
baby, we're wrong sometimes
i once saw you checkin' out
on the breakdown line
easy to lose yourself
every now and then, from time to time
signals cut and static's blue
everyone tryin' to find
some different versions of you
on the breakdown line

Maybe Some Other Time
07:08
|
|
||
|
the light was wrong, i wanted nothing to do
belong inside the saddest song with you
and rest until the rest are gone
and the rest we'll stumble upon
o, sinny, can i take you home
show you what i have in mind
and the world i've been running from
if not tonight, maybe some other time
the words will show me where to go
how to feel when levels are low
how to keep it buried deep down inside
where it's hidden, how to hide
o, sinny, can i take you home
show you what i have in mind
and the world i've been running from
if not tonight, maybe some other time
it's not the dream you wanna find yourself in
seems the scene's been wearin' thin
it's all ending for the win
not the dream you wanna find yourself in
o, sinny, can i take you home
show you what i have in mind
and the world i've been running from
if not tonight, maybe some other time
