Last Exit

Life's a game of chess, "Look ma, watch me crash"
No time to question, why'd nothing last
Grasp and hold on, we're dyin' fast
Soon be older, and I will be last

Let the ocean swell, dissolve 'way my past
Three days maybe longer, won't even know I've left

Under your tounge, I'm not content
I will give you what, you're not s'posed to have
Under my breath, I swear by sin
For better or for worse, a best we began

Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask
Three days maybe longer, shed my skin at last, shed, shed

Let the sun shine, burn 'way my mask
Three days maybe longer, won't even find me here

Let the ocean dissolve 'way my past
Four days, never stronger

Let my spirit pass
Ooh
This is, this is...
My last exit

Spin The Black Circle

See this needle, a see my hand
Drop, drop, dropping it down, oh, so gently
Well here it comes, touch the plane
Turn me up, won't turn you away

Spin, spin, spin the black circle
Spin, spin, spin the black, spin the black
Spin, spin, spin the black circle
Spin, spin, whoa

Pull it out, a paper sleeve
Oh, my joy, only you deserve conceit
Oh so big, my whole world
I'd rather you, rather you, than her

Spin, spin, spin the black circle
Spin, spin, spin the black, spin the black
Spin, spin, spin the black circle
Spin, spin, whoa

Oh
You're so warm, oh, ritual
When I lay down your crooked arm

Spin, spin, spin the black circle
Spin, spin, spin the black, spin the black
Spin, spin, spin the black circle
Spin, spin
Spin the black
Circle
Spin the black circle
Spin, spin

Not For You

Restless soul, enjoy your youth
Like Mohammad hits the truth
Can't escape from the common rule
If you hate somehing, don't you do it too, too

Small my table, a sits just two
Got so crowded, I can't make room
Oh, where did they come from?  Stormed my room!
And you dare say it belongs to you, to you

This is not for you
Oh, not for you, ah, you

Scream, my friends, don't call me
Friends, no they don't scream
My friends don't call, my friends don't

All that's sacred comes from youth
Dedication, naive and true
With no power, nothing to do
I still remember, why don't you, don't you

This is not for you
Oh, never was for you, fuck you
This is not for you
Oh, this is not for you, yeah, you
This is not for you
Oh, not for you
Oh, you

Tremor Christ

Winded is the sailor, drifted by the storm
Wounded is the organ he left all bloodied on the shore
Gorgeous was his savior sees her drowning in his wake
Daily taste the salt of her tears, but chance blamed fate
Little secrets, tremors, turn to quake
The smallest oceans still get big, big waves

Ransom, pay the devil, he whispers pleasing words
Triumphant are the angels if they can get there first
Little secrets, tremors, turn to quake
The smallest oceans still get big, big waves

I'll decide
Take the dive
Take my time
Not my life
Wait for signs
Believe in lies to get by
It's divine
Oh, you know what it's like

Turns the bow back and
Drops the line
Puts his faith and love in tremor Christ

Nothingman

Once divided, nothing left to subtract
Some words when spoken, can't be taken back
Walks on his own, with thoughts he can't help thinking
Future's above, but in the past he's slow and sinking
Caught a bolt 'a lightnin', cursed the day he let it go

Nothingman
Nothingman
Isn't it something?
Nothingman

She once believed, in every story he had to tell
One day she stiffened, took the other side
Empty stares, from each corner of a shaped prison cell
One just escapes, one's left inside the well
And he who forgets, will be destined to remember, oh, oh, oh

Nothingman
Nothingman
Isn't it something?
Nothingman

Oh, she don't wan't him
Oh, she won't feed him, after he's flown away
Oh, into the sun, ah, into the sun

Burn, burn, burn, burn
Nothingman
Nothingman
Isn't it something?
Nothingman
Nothingman
Coulda' been something
Nothingman
Oh, ohh, ohh

Whipping

Don't need a helmet, got a hard, hard head
Don't need a raincoat, I'm already wet
Don't need a bandage, there's too much, blood
After a while, seems to roll right off, hmm

Whipping, ah, they're whipping, ah
They're whipping, ah, they're whipping

Don't need a hand, there's always arms attached
Oh, don't get behind, I can't fall back
Why must we trust all these rusted rails?
They don't want no change, we already have

They're whipping, ah, they're whipping, ah
They're whipping, ah, they're whipping

Don't mean to push, but I'm being shoved!
Ohh, I'm just like you, think we've had enough
I can't believe a thing they want us to, oh
Oh, we all got scars, they should have 'em too

Oh, they're whipping, ah, they're whipping, ah
They're whipping, ah, they're whipping
They're whipping, ah, they're whipping, ah
They're whipping, yeah, they're whipping

Pry, To

P-r-i-v-a-c-y, it's priceless to me...
P-r-i-v-a-c-y...

Corduroy

The waiting drove me mad, you're finally here and I'm a mess
I take your riches back, can't let you roam inside my head
I don't want to take what you can give
I would rather starve than eat your bread
I would rather run but I can't walk
Guess I'll lie alone just like before

I'll take the varments back, oh, and I must refuse your test
Push me and I will resist, this behavior's not unique
I don't want to hear from those who know
They can buy, but can't put on my clothes
I don't want to limp for them to walk
Never would have known of me before
I don't want to be held in your debt
I'll pay it off in blood then I'll be wed
I'm already cut up and half dead
I'll end up alone like I began

Everything has chains, absolutely nothing's changed
Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my teacher

I don't want to take what you can give
I would rather starve than eat your breast
All the things that others want for me
Can't buy what I want because it's free
Can't buy what I want because it's free
Can't be what you want because I'm

I ain't s'posed to be just fun
Oh, to live and die, let it be done
I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began

Bugs

I got bugs
I got bugs in my room
Bugs in my bed
Bugs in my ears
Their eggs in my head
Bugs in my pockets
Bugs in my shoes
Bugs in the way, I feel about you

Bugs in my window, trying to get in
They don't go nowhere
Waiting, waiting
Bugs on my ceiling, crowded the floor
Standing, sitting, kneeling
A few block the door
And now the questions:
Do I kill them?
Become their friend?
Do I eat them?
Raw or well done?
Do I trick them?
I don't think they are that dumb
Do I join them?
Looks like, that's the one
I got bugs on my skin
Tickle my nausea
I let it happen again
They're always taking over
Aw, see they surround me I see
See them deciding my fate
Ah, that was just once
What was once up to me, but now it's too late
I got bugs in my room, one on one
That's when I had a chance
I'll just stop now
I'll become naked 
And let them all become one

Satan's Bed

It's not all been said, been said and done
I've never slept in Satan's bed
Although I must admit, still visits my place
Uninvited, as you know, he don't wait
Funny how he always seems to fit in
Funny how I always want to give in
Sundays, Fridays, Tuesdays, Thursday, the same
Sometimes the special guest, he don't like to leave
Already in love
Already in love
Already in love
Already

Who made, who made up, made up the myth
That we were born to be covered in bliss?
Who set the standard, born to be rich?
Such fine examples, skinny little bitch
Model, role model, roll some models in blood
Get some flesh to stick, so they look like us
I shit and I stink, I'm real, join the club
I'd stop and talk, but I'm already in love

It's torture, it's torture, more torture

Already in love
Already in love
Already in love
Already

Never shook Satan's hand, look see for yourself
You'd know it if I had, that shit don't come off
I'll rise and fall, let me take credit for both
Jump off a cliff, don't need your help so back off
I'll never suck Satan's dick
Again, you'd see it, you know, right round the lips
I'll wait for an angel, but I won't hold my breath
'Magine they're busy, think I'm doing okay
Already in love
Already in love
Already in love
Already in love
Already in love
Already in love
Already

Better Man

Waiting, watching the clock it's
Four o'clock it's got to stop
Tell him, take no more
She practices her speech as

He opens the door
And she rolls over
And pretends to sleep
As he looks her over

She lies and says she's in love with him
Can't find a better man
She dreams in color, she dreams in red
Can't find a better man

Talking to herself
There's no one else
Who needs to know
She tells herself

Memories back when she was
Smooth and strong
And waiting for the world
To come along
She swears she knew that
Now she swears he's gone

She's lies and says she's in love with him
Can't find a better man
She dreams in color, she dreams in red
Can't find a better man
She lies and says she still loves him
Can't find a better man
She dreams in color, she dreams in red
Can't find a better man


She loves him
She don't want to leave this way
She feeds him
That's why she'll be back again
Can't find a better man

Aye Davanita

Awooh, aye davanita, awooh, awooha...
Awooh, aye davanita, awooh, awooha...

Immortality

Vacate is the word, vengeance has no place so near to her
Cannot find the comfort in this world
Artificial tear, vessel stabbed, next up, volunteers
Vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere

A truant finds home, a wish to hold on
But there's a trapdoor in the sun, immortality

As privilaged as a whore, victims in demand for public show
Swept out through the cracks beneath the door
Holier than thou, how?
Surrendered, executed anyhow
Scrawl dissolved, cigar box on the floor

A truant finds home, a wish to hold on to
He saw the trapdoor in the sun

Immortality
I cannot stop the thought, of running in the dark
Coming up a which way sign, all good truants must decide
Oh, stripped and sold, mom, auctioned forearm
And whiskers in the sink
Truants move on, cannot stay long
Some die just to live
Ohh

Hey Foxymophandlemama,
That's Me (Stupid Mop)

Don't you want people to love you?
My spanking, that's the only thing I want so much
Spanking, that's the only thing I want so much
That's the only thing I want so much
Don't you want people to love you?
My spanking, that's the only thing I want so much
That's the only thing I want so much
Why is that better than being hugged?
Why is that better than being hugged?  
Because you get closer to the person
Closer to the person
Why is that better than being hugged?
Because you get closer to the person
Closer to the person
Just like a person having sex feels cared for
We wanna be loved, so we have sex together
And they feel loved about that
And this is the way it makes me feel, loved
I want it, I dream about it, I think about it, I want it
Just like a girl wants sex with a boy, you know?
It's the way I'll always be probably
My last one was born in the system
See, they're stupid, very stupid, those people over there
They're stupid
These people are so below mentality, honest to God, really
You know what I mean, he got the nerve to bug me
You know what I mean, he got the nerve to bug me
This mentality, honest to God, really
You know what I mean, he got the nerve to bug me
Honest to god, really
You know what I mean, he got the nerve to bug me
Bug me, bug me, he got the nerve to bug me
Everything seems so hateful
Everything seems so hateful
And I, I don't know if that's my imagination, but, umm
Hey foxymophandlemama, that's me
And I don't know if that's my imagination, but, umm
Hey foxymophandlemama, that's me
Hey foxymophandlemama, that's me
Think they got me
Hey foxymophandlemama, that's me, hmm
Hey foxymophandlemama, that's me
Know if that's my imagination, but, umm
Hey foxymophandlemama, that's me
She prides herself on her cleaning habits
She prides herself on her cleaning habits
Hey foxymophandlemama, that's me
She prides herself on her cleaning habits
She prides herself on her cleaning habits
It's a lovely stupid mop, it is
There's something really screwy about no streaking
Is it any old dumb mop?  
It streaks
Come on mop, no streaking mop
I don't mind mop the floor, my mop streaks, I don't like it
It's not me, it's the mop
Come, I bought some new mops
Go away you stupid, dumb old sponge mop
I don't believe it, now the floor looks beautiful
I don't believe it, now the floor looks beautiful
I don't believe it...old sponge mop
Dumb old sponge mop
Dumb old sponge mop
Old sponge mop
Dumb old sponge mop
You're right, this mop's stupid
Dumb old sponge mop
I don't believe it, now the floor looks beautiful 
That's why they call me mophandlemama
Now the floor looks beautiful
That's why they call me mophandlemama
That's why they call me mophandlemama
That's why they call me mophandlemama
It'd be two weeks before she could see her psychiatrist
The twenty-third of May, you know she disturbed no one today
The manager told her to completely forget
If you ever go to bed, I'll kill you
Do I tell the whole world that I'm mentally ill?
Go to the papers, yeah, why not?  
Drum roll
I want to show them that I can walk on my own without hands of theirs
And, I can still fantasize, but I keep it to myself
Keep it to myself, keep it to myself
I think I deserve to be loved, don't you?  
Very much so
Think I deserve to be loved
Keep it to myself, keep it to myself
I think I deserve to be loved, don't you?
To be loved, don't you?
But I keep it to myself
Keep it to myself, keep it to myself
I think I deserve to be loved, don't you?
And, I can still fantasize, but I keep it to myself
Keep it to myself, keep it to myself
I think I deserve to be loved, don't you?
Very much so
Do you ever think that you would actually, really kill yourself?
Well, if I have thought about it real, uhh, real deep
Yeas, I believe I would
I have thought about it real, uhh, real deep
Yes, I believe I would
And, I can still fantasize, but I keep it to myself
Keep it to myself, keep it to myself
That I can walk without hands of theirs
And, I can still fantasize, but I keep it to myself
Keep it to myself
Keep it to myself
I think I deserve to be loved, don't you?
Very much so
Do you ever think that you actually would kill yourself?
Well, if I have thought about it real, uhh, real deep
Yes, I believe I would
