HE'S GOT A HEAVY HEART
THAT HE THROWS AT THE FAN
HE KEEPS HIS CREDIT CARD
IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND
HE'S GOT THE LEGAL AGE TO PROVE HE'S A MAN
HE HAD IT FIGURED OUT
UNTIL HE LOOKED INSIDE
AND FOUND A GUILTY MIND
AND THE COLOURS OF THE STREETS
WERE PRINTED ON HIS BRAIN AND THE LINES OF HIS EYES
AND SHE WAS SOMEONE ELSE
SHE WAS HARD TO DESCRIBE
SHE MADE YOU THINK ABOUT
THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE
WHETHER IT WAS GREENER OR BLACK AS A HOLE
SHE HAD THE SOFTEST TOUCH
TO DISTRACT YOU FROM DAD
AND THE TONIC-ALE SCENT
OF LIQUOR ON HIS BREATH
BUT SHE DIDN'T NEED TO CAUSE THE SMELL'S IN THE YELL
HE PLAYS THE MACHO CARD
CAUSE A MAN DOESN'T CRY
YOU BEST NOT BAT AN EYE
HE'LL GET RID OF THE DOG
BECAUSE HE'S WELL BEYOND THE MIND OF A MAN
AND NOW HIS EYES ARE BLACK
YEA HE'S REALLY LOST IT NOW
I DO SUGGEST WE LEAVE
BUT SHE DOESN'T KNOW HOW
TO DRIVE HIS CHEVROLET OR THE SPOT FOR THE KEY
WELL KIDS ITS TIME FOR BED
PLEASE CLOSE YOUR EYES
YOU DID NOT HEAR A THING
WE WILL SPEAK WHEN WE RISE
OVER A CUP OF TEA AND A SIDE OF DENIAL
AND ALL HE REALLY WANTS TO IS TO FALL FROM THE EARTH
AND ALL SHE REALLY WANTS IS TO FALL FROM THE SKY

YOU'VE BEEN 'ROUND
PUTTING YOUR MONEY DOWN
ON SOMETHING FOUND
YOU JUST CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT
AND NOW IT'S RUNNING AWAY
YOU FOUND OUT
WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT
NOW ALL YOUR DOUBTS
ARE RAINING DOWN FROM A CLOUD
YOU WANNA BLOW IT AWAY
YOU'VE GOT A BIG SOUND
OUT OF YOUR MOUTH
YOU OUGTTA TURN IT DOWN
THE SIZE OF YOUR FROWN IS GETTING TOO LOUD
TAKE OFF YOUR CROWN
AND TRY TO PUT IT DOWN
ALLOW IT TO DROWN
YOU GOT IT
TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT
YOU GOT IT
SOMEONE SAID
YOU'VE BEEN DROWNING INSTEAD
YOU TRIED TO FLOAT
CATCHING UP WITH YOUR BOAT
BUT IT'S BEEN SAILING AWAY (AWAY, AWAY)
IF YOU DON'T GET
UP AND OFF OF THE GRASS
DEFLATE YOUR HEAD
NEVERMIND WHAT YOU READ
I'LL BURN YOUR STADIUM DOWN
YOU'RE IN A PARKING LOT
CELEBRATE THE SUN
GETTING HIGH FOR FUN

I DROPPED IT ON THE FLOOR
AND NOW IT'S ALL CRACKED
I DIDN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT HOW YOU'D REACT
IT ROLLED AWAY GENTLY
AND I START TO RETRACT
MY MOOD IS A PENDULUM IN YOUR HAND
LIFE WILL BRING YOU DOWN
SQUISH YOU IN ITS HAND
NO WARNING
BUT THAT WASN'T THE RECIPROCAL
SHE SAID, "FIGURE THIS!"
I FIGURED AS MUCH
I'VE ALREADY DIED
AND I REALLY DON'T MIND
I TOOK A BIG BITE OUT OF CLARITY
A NEGATIVE WINDOW
AND A POSITIVE DOOR
YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY WHICH ONE YOU LIKE
THE WINDOW BRINGS YOU DOWN
DEAL'S A DIRTY HAND
NO WARNING
PLEASE DON'T BRING ME DOWN
HOLD ME IN YOUR HAND
NO WARNING

AND WHEN I SLEEP
I LIKE TO CONCENTRATE ON FOCUS
I LIKE TO EAT
BUT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF KITOSIS
I STEAL MYSELF AND HOPE NOBODIE'S NOTICED
I GET AWAY WITH IT BUT ONLY CAUSE I OWN IT
MAYBE NOT
I FORGOT
IT WAS GOING ALL TO FINE
FORGETTING TO REMIND
MYSELF OF MY BAD SIDE
I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I'M WRITING A NOTE TO SELF AGAIN

THERE'S A BRAIN FREEZE IN MY HEAD
YEAH HIT ME A LITTLE HARDER WANNA FEEL IT AGAIN
I KNOW THAT THERE'S A REASON GOTTA TAKE A CHANCE
MY WALLET AIN'T ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU GET UP AND DANCE
SITTING HERE IN THIS LITTLE ROOM
TWO BEDS PUSH TOGETHER AND I CAN'T MAKE ROOM
ONE AND ONE AND ONE MINUS ONE MAKES TWO
GO ON ELECTRIC FETUS GO ON DO WHAT YOU DO
DON'T WANNA WASTE MY TIME WITH YOU
I CAN FEEL IT COMING DOWN THE HALL
FEEL IT COME TO TAKE ME LIKE MY FAVOURITE DRUG
I KNOW RESPONSIBILITY IS TECHNICALLY
ANOTHER LITTLE ROAD APROACHING SANITY
GO ON ELECTRIC FETUS GO ON DO WHAT YOU DO

TELL YOU NOT TO RIDE
THE GOLDEN PONY
CAUSE HE OWES ME
BUT I CAN SEE THE SKY
DOWN BELOW ME
FLOOR'S ABOVE ME
TELL YOU 'BOUT MYSELF
OVERSELL ME
SO YOU LOVE ME
SELL ME ON A SHELF
WITH SPAGHETTI
MACARONI
I WANNA MAKE YOU MAKE ME CRY
UNTIL YOU REALIZE THAT MY TEARS WERE MADE OF EGO
YOU OUGHTTA LOOK ME IN THE EYE
CAUSE I'M THE TYPE OF GUY
TO EXPLODE UPON COLLISION
ALL OF YOU PEOPLE FAKING, PULLING TOOTH
I SEE YOUR SHOELACE AND IT'S LOOKING LOOSE
YOU MAKE YOUR STORIES A LITTLE BORING
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU SAY OR DO
THE FUCKING TRUTH IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU
BE ABOUT IT, SPEAK ABOUT IT
PLEASE DON'T TURN ME
INTO CHEAP GREED
NAIVE, PIG FEED
DIRTY LEACH MENTALITY

CAKE IS IN THE OVEN
PUSH HAS COME TO SHOVE AND
I'M IN MY ROOM WITH A BOOK AND A BEER
DO I WANNA READ IT
I DON'T WANNA DRINK IT
I HESITATE WHEN ITS TIME TO MAKE UP MY MIND
LOVE THE WAY YOU FAKE IT
OO I WANNA TAKE IT
HOME BY THE BEACH, DIP YOUR TOES IN THE TIDE
CONSTANTLY REPLACING
PLEASANT CONVERSATION
FILLING IT'S BOOTS WITH THESE SILLY LITTLE GAMES
OH I CAN TELL YOU THAT NOTHING'S THE SAME AROUND HERE
ALL I EVER SEEM TO DO IS RUN AROUND
WAITING FOR YOU
TRIED TO KILL SOME TIME ON THE MERRY-GO-ROUND
LOOKING FOR INSPIRATION I TRY REACHING DOWN
RATHER SPEND MY DOLLAR ON THE LOST AND FOUND THAN YOU
TRAIN'S BROKEN DOWN FOR A WHILE
THERE'S A PRETTY PATIENT
WAITING FOR THE DOC TO
COME IN THE ROOM, GENTLY CALL OUT HER NAME
ALL THE OTHER PATIENTS
LOOKING QUITE IMPATIENT
WHAT WOULD THEY DO WITHOUT ALL OF THEIR PRECIOUS TIME
(THE CLOCK IS TICKIN, YOU DON'T OWN IT)
WHAT WOULD THEY DO WITH THESE SILLY GAMES
DON'T KNOW THE RULES OR JUST QUITE HOW TO PLAY THEM AT ALL

EVERY FEBRUARY GETS A LITTLE SCARY
GREY SKIES GLOOMING, PRYING IN THROUGH MY WINDOW
TAKE A YEAR OF FIVE, JUST GIVE IT A TRY
AND FIND YOURSELF A DIFFERENT PERSON
I DON'T NEED NO CONSCIOUS SEDATION
TO MAKE ME FEEL ANY LESS THAN I FEEL
I WISH YOU COULD STOP DOUBTING YOURSELF
AND GET A BETTER LOOK AT THE MIRROR
MIRRORS AREN'T SO BAD
LIFE'S A JOKE THAT JUST HAD TO HAPPEN
TRY NOT TO LAUGH
IT WAS PUT HERE FOR YOU AND ME TO LOVE
OOPS IT'S MY BAD
TRY NOT TO LAUGH AT ME
DROP THE NEEDLE ON A FAVOURITE BEATLE
SHE'S MY BABY, YOU KNOW JUST WHAT I WANNA SING TO
FORGET ABOUT THE BAD TASTE IN YOUR MOUTH
WHEN YOU START OVERTHINKING YOUR PROBLEMS
ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT CIVILISATION
AND PHILOSOPHICAL THINGS LIKE
JUST HOW LONG WE MAY LIVE FOR
MAYBE THE ANSWER WE NEED
IS IN THE STALE WEED OR
MAYBE IT'S ANOTHER DISTRACTION
AH MAYBE, BUT DISTRACTIONS ARE GOOD
HOW DEEP'S YOUR LOVE
HOW DEEP'S YOUR LOVE
IS IT AS DEEP AS YOU TOLD ME IT WAS YEARS AGO?
YOU TOLD ME SO
