Duende
02:16
|
|||
|
Duende is everything
duende is death
duende is when you're scared at night
its' the baby's first breath
duence is the nectar that the tress and flowers breath
duende is the splendor
in the knife that makes me bleed
duende is christ on the cross
its like a shooting star
its like painting that masterpiece
or falling in love
dark as the ocean
mysterious as the first date
it's where all yr strength comes from
duende is laughing your heart of with a friend
its making love to your friends too
deunde is that far away look in your eye
its knowing when to say goodbye
deunde is your soul
duende is rock n roll
deunde

The Morning Dew
01:59
|
|||
|
The morning dew is often blue
just like me and just like you
although the dew is wet and cold
at least it feeds the flowers
the sunny skies will tell you lies
just like my dad and fireflies
although he tries to love me so
I only hear his chatter
yeah life is kinda funny
the way it twists and turns
the places it will take you
and the lessons that you'll learn
the evening moon is coming soon
I'm crying out just like a loon
although the moon is very old
at least it makes me sleepy
yeah life is kinda funny
the way it twists and turns
the places it will take you
and the lessons that you'll learn
the morning dew is often blue
just like me and just like you
although the dew is wet and cold
at least it feeds the flowers

Love Vanished
03:57
|
|||
|
Our love vanished from under our noses
just like petals when they fall from the roses
and float down the river like baby moses
to be found by another who could make your life better
your love used to make me feel so cool
now it makes me scream and drool
your love used to rock me all through the night
now it takes me all of my might
just to get up in the morning
only to be haunted by the ghost of what we were
she creeps into the little things and makes me think of her
she burrows deep into my heart and takes my little soul
she gives it wings and sets it free and it flies right back home
only to be haunted by the ghost of what we were
she fills my head with dreary things that make me feel concerned
she floats above my bed at night just like the big ol moon
and fills my room with deep dark thoughts and this sense of doom
our love vanished from underneath our noses
just like time when my mind doses
just like voices when the door closes
our love went away just like a dream, yes it did

If You Wanna Go Out
01:44
|
|||
|
If you wanna go out, well go out with me
if you wanna see the city, well see the city with me
if you wanna stay up late, well stay up late with me
if you wanna take me home, well I'll go home with you
if you wanna hold my hand, I'll hold hands with you
and if you wanna wear a mask, I'll lace it up for you
and if you want the little kitty, I'll start purring too
and if you want something dirty, momma I'll crawl to you
and if you want me to lick your boots, I'll lick your boots for you
but if you want me to pray to God, I'll kneel and pray to you
and if you want me to surrender, I'll stop partying too

I followed my heart to the tracks
to meet the devil and make a deal
he whispered me his offer
and I said gd that's a steal
I'd love to say I sucked the devils dick
but I dont kiss and tell
I followed my heart that day
I followed to straight to Hell
Follow yer heart to Hell
Riding a hog with the devil
giving him a reach around
trying to get him to shoot so high
it hits me in the mouth
and satan's semen makes me feel so alive
I'm gonna milk the devil down until the day I die
Follow yer heart to Hell

Momma is mad momma is mean
momma throws a punch like you've never seen
I'm in the witness protection program
I'm in the witness protection program
momma wants me dead momma wants me gone
momma doesn't want me to sing these songs
I'm in the witness protection program
I'm in the witness protection program
Momma doesn't want me hanging round long
momma wants a bullet straight through my head
momma killed a man to teach me a lesson
so I left momma and got myself into a witness protection program

The Heights of Despair
01:49
|
|||
|
I've been I've been up on up on
the heights of despair
and from and from the heights the heights
I saw you sitting there
So I climbed down the coconut tree
and got myself the clam
I smashed him on a rock and slurped it down my throat
then the waves started rolling in so I climbed right back up
I've been I've been up on up on
the heights of despair
I think I think I saw I saw a light shining out there
so I jumped off the coconut tree and right into the sea
I swam around like a great big fish untill I coulnd't breath
then I sank down to the deep dark deep where I became happy
I've been I've been way down way down
in the depths of despair
that's where that's where
I found I found my sunken treasure

What Is...
04:05
|

|
What is the ocean withouta shore
what is an apple without a core
what is an ant without a crumb
what is a hand without a thumb
what is a convict without their troubles
what is my soda without the bubbles
what is a clown with no balloon
what is a cloud without the gloom
I'm a worm stuck to your shoe
a broken record on a loop
im a shadow when you close your eyes
a little baby who sits and cries
over you, oh momma over you
what is an ear without van gogh
what is a kid without play dough
what is a michael without his jordans
what is a crush without the courting
what is a sword without a stone
what is a death without a groan
what is a snail without its slime
what is a poem without its rhyme
I am buddhist without its breath
I am the sabbath without the rest
I am a fuck without the passion
I am GQ without the fashion
without you, oh momma, without you
what is a flip without a flop
what is a trip without the drop
what is a phone without your call
what is a John without his Paul?
I am nothing, nothing at all
without you
I am nothing, nothing at all
without Paul

Je Ne Sais Quoi
03:49
|
|||
|
Her hair shined perty like a black mink's coat
and when she talked dirty boy I swear I could float
her je ne sais quoi left me in awe
I've been in love with mara since the first time I saw her
but it wasnt just me it was the whole damn school
it wasn't just me it was the whole wide world
all these later still got me singing like a fool
mara la fontaine what a name
met her junior year and never been the same
once when we were all grown up
we went to laguna beach to have some fun
we drank the wine with the sand on our feet
it was a hell of a time
we shared our kinks
she liked crunchin soap and I prefered the rope
something about mara gives a man hope
we touch on life and we touched on death
she said jase u gotta keep that spark till the end
mara la fontaine what a name
met her jr year and never been the same

You guys, I said it's a clown
It's a clown floating in space
Drifting away and it's kinda tragic
Maybe it's a colorful clown
but it's drifting out of sight
like a balloon
Getting smaller drifting away
It's a clown you see him there?
It's just kinda dancing there
moving his arms just a little bit
he's dancing there you see?
He could be a colorful clown
or it could be a Marcel Marceau clown
but it's a clown
and he's just floating there
he's got that tragic look on his face
and you can't even look too long
cos that pain gets inside of you
so you just don't wanna see that clown like that
but he's moving his arms
and he's inviting you to look at him
and you know you can even laugh if you want
the clown wants you to laugh
he just wants you to feel something
when you see his tragic face
and he starts to dance a little bit as he floats away
he's getting smaller now you can see him
he's starting to twinkle
starting to become one of those little stars
just twinkling in the night sky
and you'll always think of that clown
as he was dancing around

Georgie Lou Cannon won't you sing it for me

Georgie Lou Cannon even taught me to drop
but just as we were getting goin
Beasel the Weasel stuck his dirty nose in
I said "Oh shit Georgie it's my arch nemesis"
"Then hold my drinks, Pauly, I'll take care of this
Beasel the Weasel get the Hell out of here"
I said "Hell yeah, Georgie!" and I bought him a beer
Georgie Lou Cannon won't you sing it for me
Georgie Lou Cannon won't you play it for me
Georgie Lou Cannon Georgie Lou Cannon
Georgie Lou Cannon Georgie Lou Cannon
Said, "I'm sorry Georgie, but I best be leaving
It's just that Johnny's waiting for rehearsing"
and Georgie said, "Well that's a bummer
unless y'all are in need of a drummer"
I said, "Hell yeah Georgie nothing could be funner"
and that's how our Georgie joined the band
now we're out here touring these distant lands
yeah that's how our Georgie joined the band
Georgie Lou Cannon won't you sing it for me

Christ it's Nice

Christ it's nice the ice is melting
Christ it's nice to see the flowers again
My mind is buzzing and the dogs are nuzzling C Am C Am
And the zinnias grow from the concrete F C G C
Christ it's nice the ice is melting
Christ it's nice to see the flowers again
The roses are budding and the daisies are blooming
And they got feelings just like you do F C G C
And though you can't hear em
They scream when you pluck em
And they bleed just like you and me
Christ it's nice the ice is melting
Christ it's nice to see the flowers again
I’m sucking all the honey from the honeysuckles
And they’re a nice sweet treat
And though you can't hear em
They scream when you pluck em
So don’t you pluck em too oft
(instrumental)
Christ its nice the ice is melting
Christ its nice to see the flowers again

Stranger Danger
04:52
|
|||
|
If you see someone that you don't know
that's just a stranger
If you see someone you don't know
that looks dangerous
that's a Stranger Danger
Some Stranger Dangers you might already know
but you should never go with them especially when you're alone
sometimes you get butterflies when you're happy
and sometimes you get them when it's time to go
some stranger dangers just look like your mom or dad
and no matter how they try to get you to go with them
you should never do it (don't do it) without your mom or dad
(not without yr mom and dad)
so don't take the candy, don't get in the car
a stranger danger will get you no matter who you are
if you're ever unsure if a stranger's bad or good
just start running and scream loud loud loud
"there's a stranger, a stranger danger!
"a stranger danger right there!"
hey get that stanger danger!
Ah eek bad bad bad that's a stranger danger
I was playing hopscotch in my front yard
when a businessman in a nice clean suit
rolled up to me and rolled down his window
he said, "hey little tucky why don't you take a ride with me
I got a cool Gameboy for you and your brother
lets go! hop on in" and I said "no! No no no
but you can bring it over when mom and dad are home!"
that's a stranger danger!
So listen up kids, be careful out there, stay strong and stay safe.
Always listen to your folks and be good.
That's right just listen to this message from John and Paul and you won't get kidnapped.
trust those butterflies they'll never do you wrong
they'll steer you the right way and just listen to this song
Stranger Danger!

I'm Going on an Airplane
03:30
|
|||
|
I'm going on an airplane
up up up so high in the sky
I've never been so scared in my life
but I know that I'm in good hands
cuz the pilots know what they're doing
and they have never crashed before
cuz if they had they'd be dead and gone
so I'm glad on the airplane
I know that I'm in good hands
cuz the pilots fly every single day
and if they didn't fly up so high
they'd burnt to a crisp in an airplane crash
so I'm going on an airplane
up up up right in the sky
I've never been so high before
up in the airplane I have fun
but my neighbor looks a little stressed out
so I say "hey don't worry this airplane's safe
just hold my hand and we'll be okay"
so let's go on the airplane
up up so high up in the sky
I love flying on the airplane

There's only one chicken left
the others have up and died
she's pluckin' out her feathers
where the maggots eat her flesh
there's only one chicken that's left
the others lay their eggs for Jesus
but I still got my one chicken left
the dog bit the white one on its neck
the red one got hit crossing the road
the speckled one came down with the flu
Santiago shot one with his bb gun
but I got still got one chicken left
she;s wandering round all crazy
shes cluckin at the moon
the eggs she lays are greasy
I bet her meat is too
I'm holding on to her awful tight
she's putting up her final fight
but I still got one chicken left

Butcher Yer Horse
05:13
|

|
We took 2nd place at the chariot race
I could tell that he knew by the look on his face
when he saw me take the axe from the case
I had to butcher my horse today
I had to butcher my horse today
even though he's been such a good boy
I had to butcher my horse today
even though I just bought ten bundles of hay
wish I'd never lost that joust now I'll throw her ass out
I lept out of the saddle and fed her one last apple
then I slit her throat the blood filled the moat
and the crocodiles splashed all about
I had to butcher my horse today
even though shes's been such a good girl
I had to butcher my horse today
even though she's been such a good, good girl
The hills are so empty like the dunes of barchan
haven't eaten a thing since her hooves hit the sand
the first bite was rough the second was tough
by the third bite I was full
I had to butcher my horse today
even though she's been a good lil pony
I had to butcher my horse today
it pained me to do it but boy was I hungry
daddy bought me a horse named her par for the course
but when they shot that gun young par didn't run
so I picked up a stone and bashed in her dome
I had to butcher my horse today
I had to butcher my horse today
even though daddy spent all his money
i was inspired by apacolyspe now
the part in the movie where they butcher the cow
I had to butcher my horse today

I'll think of you sometimes
I'll think of you when the moon is low or high
I'll think of you when the stars arrive
I'll think
and I'll think
and I'll think of you sometimes
I'll think of you on the 4th of July
when the fireworks are lighting the sky
and we're watching from our favorite spot
on the hill of forget-me-nots
and you, you're dressed in your polka dots
but your words are my only thoughts
because you're telling me you love me
just look at us back then
just singing along
every word to our favorite song
