Daykiller
06:41
|

|
Stuck in the day killer
Mood killer
Life waster
Energy drainer
Back ager
Trying to step out of my body like a pair of overalls
Leave my glazing eyes
Subordinate smile
And be off to better things
Try to live a full life in the cloud
While my skeleton accumulates a wage
Like parking tickets on an old beater
My heart goes out to myself
Martyr I am
Christ on the clock

Why-o Why-o
06:23
|
|||
|
Why-o why-o
The depressos sink
Their sunken teeth in
And nothing sticks
And nothing sparks
And nothing affects anything else
It’s the bourgeois dream
Of speckless surface
Gliding passionlessly
Morning to night

Chickadee
07:30
|
|||
|
The pain is the same little chickadee
Bored outta my mind in the goddamn nursery
Bored outta my mind in the open sore subway
I’d take a thousand broken hearts to forget this toothache
I’d take a thousand spry cows to the park to ruminate
Where the critter to clock ratio is more humane
Where the butterflies bang
Revelation blooms
Sink my teeth into sensation soon
Birds and bees in the brain
Frustration in the neighborhood
The depth and its fangs
Blew a canyon down the road
Between today and yesterday
I spent one brutal summer in the valley of heartbreak
I came out loving love and loving hate
I came out full of concepts like a dandelion
I came out strung on the chatter of the day
I came out frantically, slobberingly, hair pulling outly growing a flower
Came out in season—
Lifeblood green, cool and extremist
Rising each morning bursting at the seams

Pigeon Kicker
04:14
|
|||
|
I get a little bored
And I’ll do anything
The future can’t reach me
When I’m all damned up
Snort anything
Kick anything
Fuck it all
Call anyone
This frustration’s a live wire
It’s pathological
Fuck
Fuck em all
Fuck it
Fuck the sun
Nowhere to go
I’m a tooth
Fuck your gums
Fuck your orthodontist
Fuck your health insurance most of all
My skeleton is deforming as we speak
Cuz I have poor people’s health insurance
And it’s no rush for em
Fuck the moon

Fiend's Life
07:16
|
|||
|
I been out in the sun all day
I been down in the valley, fuckin A
Dying and Scared of Dying and Lonely
You could skip a stone in my arteries
I got Saturday Sunday brain
I got transgression and I got shame
and I got nothing in between
It's a fiend's life for me

Fly Flown to Find You
02:05
|
|||
|
Gave up the luxury
Gave up the loneliness
From the flyblown pulp of me
The fly flown to find you
Buzz found to find you
Here little commune
A little space a little freedom
Little broken eggs etc
A crowbar windchime
A singsong strategy
I live in perfect harmony
With everything that gnashes
Everyone that needs somewhere to
Sink their teeth
Sink them in and let them get a little sleep

Free Repetition
05:36
|
|||
|
It’s about running the world through you
It’s the stuff that comes out
The surface tension of creation
between done and not done
coulda not been done and done
The threat of the tension
The view from my porch
and the view from my skull
The view up askew in elsewhere angle
It’s about trying to coax the sense out of the world
Charm the sense
Charm the pants off
Here kitty kitty the sense of the world
It’s the self as the voice as the trickling life
through the cobblestones like dawn
The blooming revelation
Under calloused fingers
The touch of the day
The kiss and the ache
What do I think when my feelings are sold to me
Rock n roll beats in my blood and in my magazines
I was born to be had I was typecast for everything
I’m thinking of my baby and I love her so desperately
