Do the birds fly up to heaven do the dogs dig down to hell?
And in hell is there bones for the dirty dogs to eat?
An in heaven's there a birdbath that's warmed up by the sun?
And are they just a laughing an a having so much fun?
And if so how do you turn yourself into a bird?
You got to read the good bible don't you dare question it's word
Or you'll be digging with the doggies and the flames'll start to burn and you'll be wishing you were ashes just a sitting in an earn you'll be wishing you were ashes just a sitting in an earn you'll be wishing you were ashes just a sitting in an earn
God damn I'm outta my mind I'm outta my mind and I'm gonna go crazy god damn I'm outta my mind ah no no no no no no

When You Come Around
04:02

When you come around my eyes are to covered to see and I can't feel anything
And when you go away I miss you more every day but this time I do hope you stay away
Oooooooooooooooo
And all, all the things you said that I let go right to my head did they come from your heart or your bullet proof vest
And I thought don't you dare go away and leave me here to stay alone with my fear in the shade
Oooooooooooooo
So free free your soul let go of the goat or the troll that's guarding the bridge to yourself
And breathe breathe in the air make love to the world on the stairs
And if she's not there then that's perfectly fair
And I I am alone but I definitely am not alone not anymore then I used to be
So let's buckle up and lets go
Let go of the things that you know
And sing a song about love

Wild Wolf

I am a wild wolf
And I'm a boy in the body of a man and I hope that's understood
Heart farts went and hurt me again
But who am I kidding pain is just pretend
When will the clowns learn to see?
Or is it just the way it has to be?
I'm like a new born baby singing the blues at night
I'm Pablo Picasso with a guitar and peace pipe
My friends are all I need to make it right
And usually I sleep alone at night
ANd all the words are bouncing off of me
I'm going blind while learning how to see
I'm a shrinking seed blossoming tree
I'm a tiny bug lost in the weeds
Ooooooooo
I am a wild wolf
And I'm a boy in the body of a man and I hope that's understood
My friends are all I need to make it rigt
And usually I sleep alone at night
And all the words are bouncing off of me
I'm going blind while learning how to see

Pickin' Up Sticks
02:34
|
|||
I'm through living in hell time to be free
I'm through living in hell and I got 7 reasons to be free
One is the alien floating through the sky
Two is a knowing I'm gonna die
Three is to know where the beanstalk goes
How in the hell is a slave gonna know?
Four is my love for everyone alive
Five is the honey in the bee hive
Six is the kid who's pickin up sticks
And seven is heaven an I'm livin in it
I'll ring the liberty bell if you come dance with me
I'll ring the liberty bell and I don't need no more reasons to be free

Rosie

Rosie you sweet pea
How'd you see the beauty in me
Im glad you did cause it helped me get rid
Of the idea that I need to be something
In all my dreams I turn my face to the wheel
God please give me
the vision of blind melody
Or show me what love means
Or tell me to stay gold then leave
Cause clearly what I see isn't real
And I dont know where those bones learned to grow
But I hope they don't grow out of me
And I don't know how this story went untold but the fox that tricks
the dog listens for free
Sexy lady
Keeper of the only giving tree
Your ovaries are showing me
That the gift of love and life are for free
How helpless am I to be
And I don't know how this story unfolds
But your orifie are enticing me
And I don't know how that little baby bled
But the head inside the dead listens to me
Homie
Help me love the dirty vagrants of these twisted seas
This ship has sailed and I won't get no more mail
So don't you bother writing to me
Let's split the gold grow real old then die
And I don't know how these bones learned to grow
But I hope they don't grow out of me
And I don't know how this story went untold
But the fox that tricks the dog listens for free

Daddy Mamma Boogie
03:26
|
|||
I've got so many things on my mind and I don't know where to begin
Life is taking it's time and I'm still having trouble keeping up with it
What do we do and where do we go and how in the hell are we supposed
to know how to make a bunch of money buy a fancy car how to live in cages with our wings against the bars
And I've got so many things but man let me tell you I'm done with them
I see trouble ahead but there was trouble behind so let's roll with it
I hope you're doing fine but fine is subjective so don't hold on to it
Hold on to me and I'll hold on to you and we'll spin around in circles
until we're gonna spew and then you can call me daddy yeah I'll be your daddy but girl what is a daddy to you? I've got so many things on my mind and I don't know where to begin
Daddy daddy daddy do daddy cant you make daddy feel good
Mamma mamma mamma please baby be my mamma cause a daddy and a mamma makes two One is a loser another is a loser but together we can be cool Then I'll call you baby and you can call me booboo and then we'll start acting a fool

The Adventures of the Silver Spaceman Brooklyn, New York
"Sprung from Lou Barlow-like crinkly pop, the marauding melodies, two-or-more guitar dualing and shadowy stories move it into dark urban alley territory."
