Lights Out

Its time to put the kids to bed
To snuff the light in their head
It’s time to put them down
We do not mess around
We cook your meals
We haul your trash
We drive your ambulance
We guard you while you sleep
You are an amputee
Do not fuck with us
Whittling on the farm
We know our way to Mars
We know you noticed
We’ll take back what is ours
Whittling on the farm
We know our way to Mars
We know you noticed
We’ll turn off all the lights
Its time to put the kids to bed
Your deadbeat politics
Its time to take them out
We do not mess around
You farce you piggyback lard
Your a waste of space
Your waste of art
But of all the things you are
The cancer of our heart
Do not fuck with us
Whittling on the farm
We know our way to Mars
We know you noticed
We’ll take back what is ours
Whittling on the farm
We know our way to Mars
We know you noticed
We’ll turn off all the lights
Somewhere I’m romancing
We left the runts alone to die in a ditch
To burn like a witch and come back and haunt us
Well carry the ghost of Tom with us
On Mars
We’re taking off
We’re taking off and landing
On Mars
We’re taking off
We’re taking off and landing

Seafoam

My sweet Milly
Your cold pale breast
Have got me a mess
And there is nothing I can do
But sing to you
And dream about the west
My Moonbaby
Your sea foam dress
Has got me a mess
And theres nothing I can do
I can see right through
You’re soaking wet and dead
Your head is full of song
Your body hums
Swirling around my tongue
I pulled you out of the lake
I strummed your hair
Right behind your ear
Your head is full of song
Your body hums
Swirling around my tongue
Your’e my one and only sweet nothing
Your’e my love
My Moonbaby

Ice Cream

1955 drinkin cherry sodas and ice
Thinking about some fresh baked black and whites
They didn't even notice the price
Have you heard the lore before
About the homicidal maniac
At the Ice cream parlor
Oh ya it’s true
They say he’s just a regular dude
Comic books and horror flicks
All taught us that antagonists are crazy and insane
A lunatic with an evil plot
Or a righteous man who thinks he’s not villain
Oh ya he’s deranged
Somehow I don't know how
They didn't even notice the cow
Drinking drinking
Drinking drinking it up
They didn't even notice the sound
Have you heard the lore before
About the homicidal maniac
At the Ice cream parlor
Oh ya it’s true
They say he’s just a regular dude
1955 the milk it kept on coming
Oh galore
He slayed them with is his hips swinging side to side
The soda jerk he sold them on every line
Have you heard the lore before
About the homicidal maniac
At the Ice cream parlor
Oh ya it’s true
They say he’s just a regular dude
He’s on the loose
He’s on the loose

Out of the Blue
02:09

You jumped right out of the airplane
Without your chute
It’s too late to turn back now dude
I’m down all day
But I’m up all night
And I hear there’s a real big one
You all call the sun
Out out of the blue
You can jump right in
Or you can hug the walls
You can be a star
If you wanna fall
I’m down all day
But I’m up all night
And I hear there’s a real big one
You all call the sun
Out out of the blue
Out out of the blue
You jumped right out of the airplane
Without your chute
It’s too late to turn back now dude

Silver Tongues

Stars and truth align
Tell me why you live in denial
I don’t want to feel good
In spite when we die
Eloquence has come and arrived
Now seduce us with your silver tongues
While I calculate infinity and arrive
In the shape and conclusion of what you think
Time knew you would
But I knew you could
Stars drip down from the sky
Firing up the clouds till their
Pink and burnt inside
Set me on fire and just let me burn wild
Like a witch on a trial
Eloquence has come and arrived
Now seduce us with your silver tongues
While I calculate infinity and arrive
In the shape and conclusion of what you think
Time knew you would
But I knew you could

The Glooming
03:23
|

When the sun goes down and it hits the ground
The sky follows
The sky falls
Throughout the town and without a sound
They leave us hollow
They’re gone
I can’t help it if it’s all
A mirage
A mirage
Head up
I’m just living
Like a kid in hell
It’s called being an adult ya
When the aliens come and they’ve had their fun
They’ll leave the money
Dripping with honey
On the night stand for us
Why am I so glum?
Why am I so
Why am I so glum?
I can’t help it if it’s all
A mirage
A mirage
Head up
I’m just living
Like a kid in hell
It’s called being an adult ya
What will the water reflect when sky is gone
Into the shadow
Into the shadow
What will the water reflect when sky is gone
Into the shadow
Into the shadow
I can’t help it if it’s all
A mirage
A mirage
And I can’t help it
If it’s all
And I can’t help it
If it’s all
A mirage

Catch and Bag
03:58

Everyone loves the radio but
What about the tracks that get cut?
Kicking stones with my head in my coat and
Lookin up at the sun and wondering where's all the fun
I don’t know about them or us
I don't think I'm going to get on that bus
I’m on my own
Skipping school in the forest now
Little boy run
Back home now
Before the police catch and bag you
Everyone goes tit for tat
But nobody knows which one they are at
I don’t know where the days all go
We’re living under the sun
We’re living under the gun
I’m on my own
Skipping school in the forest now
Little boy run
Back home now
Before the police catch and bag you
They’ll chew you up and eat your laughter out
Close your eyes and hold your breathe
The things that lurk beneath the bed
Close your eyes and don’t you flinch
They drool and bite and poke and pinch
Close your eyes and don’t you peek
Close your eyes and don’t you peek
I’m on my own
Skipping school in the forest now
Little boy run
Back home now
Before the police catch and bag you
They’ll chew you up and eat your laughter
They'll spit you out and ship you off to the zoo
Everyone loves the radio but
What about the kids that get cut?

Glamour Puss

You think you’re so damn cool
Well your not
Your just a punk
On his first day of school
With your new haircut
And fancy shoes
Well I bet your dad he thinks your a geek
And your mom she tells her friends your a freak
I'm drifting off to outer space
Skipping rocks
Put my face on the cover
Of a rock n roll magazine
Slacker cool on the last week of school
Smoking cigarettes in the bathroom
Under neon lights
I’m making out with her
And I don’t even care
Or give a fuck
Her lipstick was smeared
Before she got on the bus
I'm drifting off to outer space
Skipping rocks
Put my face on the cover
Of a rock n roll magazine
So I am stuck in summer school
While my friends stole a bus
Drove it off and crashed into the riverbank
Riverbank
I'm drifting off to outer space
Skipping rocks
Put my face on the cover
Of a rock n roll magazine
I'm drifting off to outer space
Skipping rocks
Put my face on the cover
Of a rock n roll magazine

Mosquitos and Flies

Mosquitos and flies
All buzz between the stars and swamps tonight
Hoping for blood and holding out for glory in the sun
Well color them red
When the tides come in
The bodies are washing ashore
Mosquitos and flies
Philosophers are devils and demons alike
Trying to survive
Hiding in the dead end dark of the night
Well color them red
When the mob finds out
The pitchforks and torches will light
Why the hell didn’t we go
Cause when the heavens eat the gloom of today
You’ll know I was there
Mosquitos and flies
All buzz around the moat of the castle tonight
Thirsting for blood and vengeance from the one who lives above
Well color him red
When the tides come in
They’re burning his witches alive
Why the hell didn’t we go
Cause when the heavens eat the gloom of today
You’ll know I was there
Alligators feeding on my corpse
While the vultures ride the thermals
To the top of the fucking food chain
Im here to stay
Forever in the swamp
Im here to stay
Forever
Forever
Forever in the sun

Hammock in Space
04:39
|

I know a girl who
Who has red hair
Oh god she loved me
And I loved her hair
I’ll keep on sifting through the memories
Of old carbon you
Hoping I don’t go and forget you
So so I’ll keep dreaming
So once again I don’t know if I’m living
I can’t remember when my head split
It cracked on the pavement and the memory is adrift
Ill keep on floating through the cosmos
My astronaut suit is punctured and bruised
I’m just here swinging
On a hammock in space
Thats hanging from planets without any names
And off in the distance
Im relaxing in my hospital bed
I cant remember how the hell I got here
I’m still trying to figure out where is here?
I’ll keep on sifting through the memories
Retrieve and reprieve them
I’m floating away
I’m just here swinging
On a hammock in space
Thats hanging from planets without any names
And off in the distance
Im relaxing in my hospital bed
So so I’m still dreaming
So once again I know
It’s better then living
In my head
