The Thread Of The Thing
04:01
|
|||
ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah oh
and the whosit
and the whatsit
and the stories of kings
and the needle
and the thread of the thing
and the ladder
at the scene
and the cutting off at the knees
in a little while i see
that i love the way you came on
i love the way you came on
to me
to me
ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah oh
and the where is
and the there is
and the start of the fling
but the riot
breaks the thread of thing
and the lenses
ain't clean
we'll need another tv screen
in a little while i see
but i love the way you came on
i love the way you came on
i love the way you came on
i love the way you came on
to me
to me
to me
to me
ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah oh
it weighs out, it weighs out..
and you know i love you
i love you

The Passing
03:23
|
|||
i wrapped you up in a paper cup
and then got surprised you were drowning
in love
drowning in love
i called a fish a flower
i called you mine for an hour of love
an hour of love
there were days
there were days
there were days
there were days
there were hours
there were days
now i can see the time
i can see the time passing
i can see the time
i can see the time passing
the time passing
by
see here’s the thing:
i love being in motion
and wrapped around you
while wrapped around you
i read you for the funnies
i leap into the muddy so easy
breezy
there were days
there were days
there were days
there were days
there were hours
there were days
now i can see the time
i can see the time passing
i can see the time
i can see the time passing
the time passing
by
and i can hear you i can hear you
and i can hear you i can hear you
(can hear you can hear you)
i can hear you
and i can see the time
the time passing
the time passing by
we’re lockin down
we’re lockin down
and i wrap you up

Mine
04:12
|
|||
i lost the thing
the ring that was never mine
i fall asleep and sing
these lines
mine mine mine mine
there was a love
a right way to survive
i couldn’t help but die
mine mine mine mine
mine mine mine mine
so what’s in store for our heroine
can she climb to the top of him
should she be allowed to share the stage
or is it time to turn the page
can not believe i believed i could have
one step ahead of the last
i’m not above the past to show me how
but i am a brand-new fucking shiny ball of wow
wow wow
mine mine
is it mine mine
so what’s in store for our heroine
can she climb to the top of him
should she be allowed to share the stage
or is it time to turn the page
so what’s in store for our heroine
can she climb to the top of him
should she be allowed to share the stage
or is it time to turn the page
on the thing
the thing
that was never mine mine
is it mine mine
i fall asleep and sing
i fall asleep and sing
i fall asleep and sing
i fall asleep and sing

Dead Dads And Sad Moms
03:39
|
|||
all along at the end
i see shells you could’ve wanted
haunts you would’ve haunted
waves you didn’t like
in the dark dark blue
we are drivin up long island
to watch the seagulls flyin
over dollars made of sand
crabshoes cryin for the first time
the lonely wake up glad
show me why they’re all not sad
i came here to say
that you were all of her yesterdays
i came here to see
if you could tell me how to make her believe
the lifeguards knew the way
comin up for air in red on the self-same day
where are they now?
crabshoes cryin for the first time
the lonely wake up glad
show me why they’re all not sad
i came here to say
that you were all of her yesterdays
i came here to see
if you could tell me how to make her believe
all along at the end

Was
04:33
|
|||
i was everything you
i was
or was that me
or was
and when a bottle top
makes a final shot
it’s time to say the is
the is
the is of the was
of the is of the was
of the not
of the maybe
maybe when we’re forty
which ain’t too far to plot
i’s raised to lose
i’s raised
it came to you
to break
‘cause when a bottle top
makes the final shot
it’s time to say the is
the is
the is of the was
of the is of the was
of the not
of the maybe
maybe when we’re forty
which ain’t too far to plot
i can’t help but look at the shape of your face
stare at your shinbones freckles on yer arm
and think that 1980 was a really good year
for shapes
and faces
and shinbones
and freckles on arms
while i was in the bathroom
you was at the mall
before we even met
it’s funny how things get
fucked up so fast
‘cause when a bottle top
makes the final final final final final shot
it’s time it’s time to say
it’s time it’s time it’s time it’s time it’s time
the is of the was
of the is of the was
of the not
of the maybe
maybe when we’re eighty
which ain’t too far

Pull
04:00
|
|||
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
the edge o’ dusk and the last breath out of us all
you’re lyin’ down and backwards under the snow
we all fall into the ropin’ off of the show
it’s hard to see out from inside of a home
you know why you’re waiting
you know why you’re waiting
you know what you’re waiting for
you know why you’re waiting
you know why you’re waiting
you know what you’re waiting for
and it’s all love
and it’s all love
y’pickin up that the reasons they all can change
y’somehow thought you were really over the pain
but y’figured out that the least you could understand
your heart is open to someone else’s hand
you know why you’re waiting
you know why you’re waiting
you know what you’re waiting for
you know why you’re waiting
you know why you’re waiting
you know what you’re waiting for
and it’s all love
and it’s all love
(instrumental)
and the last way out
is the last hanger down
and the movie can begin again
and the right way to go
is to rock until you roll
‘cause your love ain’t left
no your love ain’t left behind
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
you know why you’re waiting
you know why you’re waiting
you know what you’re waiting for
(and we all love
and we all love
and we all love
and we all love)
the edge o’ dusk and the last breath out of us all
you’re lyin’ down and takin’ care of the snow

Black People
03:26
|
|||
I dreamt you were using black people
to blow off steam
I dreamt you were using black people
to build your machines
And why didn’t I cry
I thought I heard you say they died
It seems that they got away
But you tracked them down and made them stay
They put up a fight
You didn’t bat an eye
And we all went home again
I dreamt you were using black people
to change a tire
I dreamt you were using black people
to get inspired
I thought you heard me say they died
So why don’t you cry
It seems that they got away
But I tracked them down
I made them stay
They put up a fight
I didn’t bat an eye
I didn’t bat I didn’t bat an eye
I didn’t bat I didn’t bat an eye
I didn’t bat I didn’t bat an eye
Oh
And we all go home again

In The Way
02:56
|
|||
how do you fall in love in a week
how do you get away
how do you see if the cracks in the plan
are the reasons that you play the game
why do you think you know where we stand
and how do i get away
you’re taking the menu right to the fan
i’ll have the strawberry shortcake to take
and the what is and the what is
in the way
and the what is and the what is
in the way
when is the right time to draw the marker line?
when i cry?
how fucked up is that
when will i behave
relative to change
relative to pain
and the what is and the what is
in the way
and the what is and the what is
in the way
how did we fall in love in a week
and how do we get away
how do we see if the cracks in the
plan
are the reasons that we play the game
and the what is and the what is
and the what is and the what is
and the what is and the what is
in the way
if all’s not fair then why are you here

See Monkey
04:02
|
|||
I made you a set of keys
then I broke up with you
did I know at the hardware store
did the copy machine and you know too
do you remember when you loved me
oh wait oh wait
do you remember when I loved you
oh you do
I saw you on the sunny side
and you crossed over to my shade
but I just wanted quiet time
and you wanted a parade
do you remember when you loved me
oh wait oh wait
do you remember when I loved you
oh you do
fucking black magic
right there in your mouth
thought I could catch it
no matter how far it was out
I leave your gray studio
I cleared so much shit outta there
do you think of me in the color scheme
or did we either ever even care
do you remember when you loved me
oh wait oh wait
I thought I could catch it
no matter how far it was out

Backstage Girl
03:27
|
|||
There were times when I saw
There were times when I thought
One lie at a time, easy to get by
Lemme tell you how I be
Assured to feel it’s never me
Call, say, call, say, this I gotta hear
Do you live in the same house you did
Do you live in the same heart
And can you start to tell the world
I wasn’t just your backstage girl
I threw you off in better days
A forever love that never came
And when we woke up I gave up on the rules of the scene
And when we woke up I stood up spotlight on me
Do you live in the same house you did
Do you live in the same heart
And can you start to tell the world
I wasn’t just your backstage girl
Will you start to tell the world
I was so much more than your backstage girl
Lemme tell you how I see
The things you don’t when you’re sixteen
Call, say, write, say, think i got to hear
Amen
