In A Memory

In a memory, in a mailbox somewhere
there's a letter, ps I love you
She looked back at me
the blankest stare i saw
this was nothing new to me
her making my heart fall
I dont know how we got here
and I dont know what it is that you're up to
If i dont know how we got here
then i sure as fuck dont know my way home
but I'm gonna pick up my bootstraps
and I'm gonna dig myself out of this one
I dont care who's watching
just please stay the fuck out of my way

Stanley Kubrick

It really was Blunt After Blunt
the snow fell the very next morning
we might as well have made number nine
instead we met eyes across the line
if you want to try ecstasy
just take the metro
i tell you its so stanley kubrick
Thank god for You Know What I'm Saying?
coming from a man never once thought of praying
the best night I've had in ages
only 2% with who was on the stages
if you want to try ecstasy
just take the metro
i tell you its so stanley kubrick
The endless zoom in and all

Most Days
03:39

My favourite thing has got to be
your voice first thing in the morning
Sometimes i feel like i should steal you away
but that's most days
So i wait in line
still got my bag of citrus - sucking limes
I chalk it up to 'life's a thrill'
I know i'll see you next time - call me girl
Some how you find a way to make the sun
hit my face on those grey days.
you are a lovely meeting, we've had a dual greeting
and you still surprise me.
Like a prick from a rose
like a pendulum swinging back and forth
sure as your face has a nose
ill watch your plants grow.

Catch Frogs
04:54
|
|||
|
My feet hit the street - low blood sugar
couldn't quite feel my knees and all i see
is a literal 'Pain Sandwich" deli
It seemed like they'd been closed for hours,
but i still had to stop and pose with the flowers
and I'm still not quite convinced that's what the name meant
As I moved on I learned
and the knowledge was free
I heard Echoes in Pompeii
and hope these colours dont fade
i keep it on repeat for its a must these days.
statues of the sun of nothing, ants of the sky
and prequel to the sequel and I can see
how the foam born got their informal gluttony
As I moved on I learned
and the knowledge was free
Aero bars - you know the one with the little bubbles?
theyre number one to homeless men with no teeth
Aero!
Knocked out on the couch with the credits
passed out in a pool of my laughter
I got right soaked on the way
singing in the rain skipping down to your place
I said I catch frogs not feelings
but we all know thats a god damn lie
with an apostrophe
I was listening to 'Feels" by A(nimal) C(ollective)

Passed By
03:23
|
|||
|
You passed by in your pastels
I had a smile on my face
I made my friend feel my heartbeat
I told him I never ever feel this way.
You passed by, oh my mind
I dont need it no more
you showed up for the opposite of dawn
a wave of wind and you were gone
I'll take a stroll,
bring four wheels for fun.
you never know who is out there.
you never know who is the one
But ill keep checking for my invitation
to a photogenic pose spot in the sun.

Farm Animals
04:29
|

|
I always told myself that when the money comes
im gonna buy some land
but the bank account's a little impotent right now.
im going to build a fence like nine miles long
and just fill it full of everything
like Noah's Ark on crack.
I found a field
from a man who says he got it from his uncle
Ive been farming farm animals
and I've been selling that meat for cheap
I left it all behind
the daily drives, the 9-5s, the diners and dives
I've got peace of mind
but the mosquitoes will eat you alive
not to mention the livestock
and the carving block
and now i spit when i talk
and i limp when i walk
and I'm up with the sun
and i sleep with a gun
Because I found a field
from a man who says he got it from his uncle
turns out its truly useless
covered in the cat piss of a panther
But thats not even the worst part
don't close your eyes its a bumpy road up a head
We found the panther by the chemicals
the sight was instantly memorable
the fragrance unbearably horrible - for a fact.
so many bodies there covered in lyme
i couldn't count them all if i had the time
we just lit a match and burned em up
because fuck that

When Paul Went Pink
04:09
|
|||
|
I keep on dreaming of weekly leaky ceilings
and I dont think I have the right to complain at all
Tea speaks off cream down at old EMI
and I tried to introduce the two
Roger this is Paul
I never saw the film with Barton Fink
I couldn't tell you really what I think
but it was hot, and i was dressed in mink
yeah i was there when Paul went Pink
David patted the Beatle on the back
said, "Mac we sound a little flat,
be a chap, join the Floyd"
Countless hits
never ended up writing The Wall
but they were the greatest band of all
Pink Floyd and Paul

Heavenly Quarantine
03:03
|

|
We can keep our feelings fresh in the refrigerator
maintain the taste of honey dew and blueberry menthol
life seems better just knowing your name
I shave off my hair to forget myself for a minute
heavenly quarantine
I'll watch your favorite movie
unaffected but injected with affection
heavenly quarantine
Show me views from your wicker chair
like the sky as the sun falls asleep

Placement
03:33
|

|
They say - It's all about placement
they say - It's all about who you know
What if not playing was the way to win?
like thats the finish line
check out in no time
Just quit.
They say its all about placement
me, Im more for arrangement
I'd say I've got a dozen problems
and you solve them with a smile

So Delicate
04:45
|
|||
|
If only I could find the words
like i do the moment after i turn away from you
someone told me "head first, just dive right in"
the ICU is a minute or two down the block in the wind.
Im not penning a classic
im not even writing this down
I'm amazed at all I've recalled even up to now
The street signs move, they dont soothe
in plain english there's nothing to do
is it wrong to say that I feel at home when I'm with you?
So delicate
you can't bubble wrap it
it's delicate like glass
it gets so distracted
....
So delicate
in for repairs again
so delicate
mine fell apart in my hands
So like glass.
