Pretty Melody

i knew it was over
drawing spirals in the sand
the wind just blew up in smoke
the incredibility of things
isn't lacking
it's just the view
from the pulpit
a pretty melody for my baby
now all he's gonna do
is make a fool of you
that man is just a sham
no part of what i am
the insensitivity you bring
isn't lacking
no matter how dark the sentiment
a pretty melody for my baby
so luscious it's over
like a sandstorm in the man
that makes me wanna choke
or blow it up in smoke
the irreverence in everything
makes me wanna sing
no matter how
dark the sentiment
a pretty melody
no matter how
dark the sentiment
a pretty melody for my baby

don't get your heart set
on anything in life
don't be stupid
you've gotta learn
to be happy all alone
and be stupid
now don't you get your mind set
on bein' any way
no matter how you take it
there's never a someday
'till you're 6 feet under
and you've had your way
don't paint your clouds black
in hopes of brighter days
'cause it's stupid
as if it's hard enough
to not believe in love
it's just stupid
now don't you get your mind bent
wrapped around a tree
with lofty indecision
living lavishly
'till you're 6 feet under
and you've had you're way
it's all your only lonely way
it's all your only lonely way
maizy it depends
on your own course
or anywhere
incognito just a stone's throw
in slo-mo repeated
until you're not there
again and again repeated
until you're not there

i'll bet the baby
still sucks his thumb
i guess i'll never be your #1
i'd never be your shining star
you'll always be my pit of tar
i never saw you
move so gald darn quick
until the day you lickedy split
'till every tom and harry
knows I'm dick
until the day you
slit your wrists
hum dinger still in town
gotta be a lifetime now
you been playin' the victim
it's clear
to get it just your way my dear
so i was thrilled
when you left so fast
it didn't last
just like trash
dumped like trash
hum dinger
where's the sunshine
in this place
just the dry walls
of your face
and the moonshine in your pace
the crying wolf
is running out of times
the joke is on you
but it's on my dime
i'd never be your shining star
you'll always be my pit of tar
I never thought
you were so gald darn thick
until the way you lickety split
'till every ton and harry
knows i'm dick
until the day you
slit your wrists
aaah ha aaah ha
aaah ha aaah ha
aaah ha aaah ha

Don't You Worry 'Bout Me

don't you worry 'bout me
get them eyes up
off the ground
stop all that mopin' around
don't you worry 'bout me
don't you worry 'bout me
the sunshine and the bees
the scarecrows and the fleas
don't you worry 'bout me

The Attest to Anything
04:33
|

at the end of the line
there is no serenade
it's all a masquerade
paper armored accolades
cut with your own blade
iodine for your your pain
red and yellow stains
summertime
hole in my chest
or a shell for regress
and i'm not ever gonna tell
just fill me with somethin'
don't shelter me
'cause every night
i fall immediately asleep
there's never a trick question
to answer anything wrong
in solace
at the end of the line
there is no serenade
it's all a masquerade
paper armored accolades
cut with your own blade
iodine for your your pain
red and yellow stains
summertime

life is just pretend
just a means to an only end
and all that's said
has been said
and will be said again
it's not some awful war
we're all just
stardust in the end
it's just pretend
it's just pretend
it's just pretend
could be anyone
could you just pretend
this moment
might not ever end?
after all that's sad
it might be jed
without his head
just for some awful war
it might be jed
without his head
aaah could be anyone
love is not my friend
just another story's end
some hearts just won't mend
will never ever beat again
my heart would rip apart
if I saw jed without his head
aaah could be anyone

Love is a Gamble
03:05

love is a gamble
crap shoot underwater
very murky water
shark infested water
love is a gamble
there's winners
and there's losers
the makers and the choosers
of our hearts
blood in the water
the blue rose in the garden
emanates the flower
of your heart
the blue rose of your heart
love is a gamble
i don't know if we'll make it
the desolate highway
the flowers grow your way
blood in the water
the amber waned
from the leaves
in fast motion
buried the man
in cascades of sand
blood in the water
love is a gamble
crap shoot underwater
very murky water
shark infested water
the blue rose in the garden
emanates the flower
of your heart
the blue rose of your heart

Totem Pole

baby ain't got the time
ain't got the money
ooh honey it ain't shit
it never was
figure I know
you'll be the victim in all this
'cause you always are
it ain't shit it never was
how dare you dare?
i tried to pretend to care
in a hell race around
and off that totem pole
don't show nowhere
don't show it if you care
in a hell race around
and off that totem pole
you waste my time
waste my time waste my time

Raven Ridge

raven ridge
sat like a cherry bomb
in the sunset in the sunset
raven ridge
splits down a gnarly path
it's an epithet it's an epithet
your own hall of fame
your own hall of fame
your own hall of fame
black and blue and indigo
struck out somewhere
but i don't really know
raven ridge
daydreams in a memo pad
remind me of who i once was
and all the changes that past
your own hall of fame
your own hall of fame
your own hall of fame
raven ridge
floods at the pearly gates
but it's much too late
it's really much too late
raven ridge
puts its best face on
to look pretty to look pretty
your own hall of fame
your own hall of fame
your own hall of fame

Those Pigs Fly
03:54

those pigs fly
high in the sky
over palms over rainbows
those pigs fly
right through your eyes
over shores over rainbows
over palms
those pigs fly
high in the sky
while the dogs
are still fenced in
from within

Poker Face Eyes
04:27
|

|
hole in the clouds
fire in the hole
and out comes the mole
should'a done what yer told
poker face eyes
hovering in the twilight
been chasin' the sun
to try and come undone
i'll always be faithful
to the ones i love
I'll always be faithful
the lampshade
is the burning smell
i'll always be faithful
to the ones i love

Place
02:00
|
|||
|
the sky heats up
your hands fall off
in a dream
coming from nowhere
going nowhere the perfect
end to a
story arms
floating moving within
what you know
the strangeness of
figures where
you are (you
are) the phenomenon
you're observing moving
on

Grand Opening
04:16
|

|
it's cautioning foreshadowing
ooh then the storm comes rustlin' in
clear through the point break
oooh overtakes
chiseling the armoring
ooh then it all comes out from in
everything it undertakes
if it all comes to fall apart
i'll still love the pieces
if it all comes to fall apart
i'll still love the pieces
ooh i guess everyone
yeah everyone is just
spoiled rotten with fun
dancin' to a song about heartbreak
ooh double-takes
if there's a rumblin'
an outstayed milky way
shone from the eyes in the moonlight
your starry gaze
took some wrong ways
went astray
foul play
now i'm not gonna be there
for your matador
or big parade
