Got a Tooth
02:53
|

|
you so sweet
I’ll never brush my teeth
got a tooth for you
stick with me
give me cavities
got a tooth for you
strike my bell
I’ve never heard so well
got a tune for you
I’ll sing it well
as good as I can do
got a tune for you
in the summer
when the sun beats down
in the autumn
with death all around
in the winter
curled up against cold
in the springtime
life just grows and grows
you won’t be alone

Ping My Radar
02:35
|
|||
|
a point, a line
a blip in the black
you beep so fine
you’ve got me calling back
a blip in the dark
you echo in my heart
we ping, we spark
we can’t be pulled apart
ping my radar

Rubber Boots
03:23
|

|
the mud may come
to cover my feet
and the water up to my knees
and the wind can blow
like a savage beast
but I ain’t worrying
that’s not me
oh, these rubber boots
much better than leather shoes
they’ll get me through the storm
oh, these rubber boots
the ones I’ll always choose
protect me and keep my warm
the neighbors might point
and call me a queer
and the kids down the street
might laugh and stare
but I’m walking tall
wherever I go
life’s not a fashion affair
oh, you rubber boots
much better than leather shoes
you’ll get me through the storm
oh, you rubber boots
the ones I’ll always choose
protect me and keep me warm

In the Winter
02:34
|
|||
|
in the winter cold creeps through the windows
we dress up in all our snuggly warm clothes
scarves around our necks and hats pulled so low
boots that squeak when we come in from cold snows
it gets dark so early in the day
but I’ve got you, the dark will be okay
I’ll wrap you up like my little baby
in the winter you’ll still be my lover
we’ll light candles and talk to each other
I will call you beautiful, it’s easy
cuz your smile warms my chilly body
it gets dark so early in the day
but I’ve got you, the dark can go away
I’ll wrap you up, you’re my little baby
|

we’ve both been here before
but it don’t feel right
we’re walking back and forth
in the middle of the night
we’re wearing down the floor
in old, familiar ways
you’ve locked all your doors
and tucked the keys away
but let me inside
oh, let me inside
your tired bones
your tired bones
just let me go
just let me go
cuz you’ve got an evil place in your heart
you’ve got an evil place in your heart
you’ve got an evil place in your heart
that I want to climb into
just let me inside
oh, let me inside
your poison lips
your poison lips
just let me go
just let me go
cuz you’ve got an evil taste on your tongue
you’ve got an evil taste on your tongue
you’ve got an evil taste on your tongue
and I must admit I want it, too

I'll Be Older Soon
02:45
|
|||
|
sick woman
be someone
who loves to
be open
fuzz corners
and low babies
crushed under
my thumb
I’ll be older soon
soft echo
repeating
my hello
past noon
relate to
black feathers
get up for
a pink sun
I’ll be older soon
|
||||
8. |
||||
|
all of this fiction
coming from me
all of your friction
rubbing on me
all my bad choices
float the old sea
all of your voices
calling to me
|

mushrooms, sprouts, and orange juice
these are the things that I forgot
mushrooms, sprouts, and orange juice
these are the things that I forgot
but no, not you
you’re with the bread
I’ve packed you deep inside my head
I’ll freeze you and keep you
away from the light
preserve you like berries
to savor at night
snorkels, balloons, and parachutes
these are things I can live without
snorkels, balloons, and parachutes
these are things I can live without
but not, not you
I need you here
I need your lips, your breath, your hair
fanned out on the pillow
a sigh in the dark
I’ll breathe under water
with you in my heart
My heart, my heart, heart

What Goes Around
02:20
|
|||
|
here I go, all alone
I guess what goes around
it comes around
like a wicked dream
it floats up, falls back down
I guess what goes around
it comes around
like a TV theme
another push, another pull
I guess what goes around
it comes around
like so many things
I drink it up, I piss it out
you know it goes around
it comes around
and ends up in the sea, finally

Something So Deep
02:23
|
|||
|
my lover, I’m lonely, too
I’ve never felt so down before
will my frown open up your door?
I’m trying to stop smiling
I know you’re in a melancholy mood
it feels so bad to feel this good
I’m in something so deep
