The Olde Headboard

What becomes a legend most? I'll let you think about it Space Ghost coast-to-coast While I give thanks today for all the things I stole, and all the things I gave away You make experiment, you try to teach a lesson and then take a stand A fake handshake don't make no man
I don't know, a year or so ago I must have made you up in my head What did I base you on? Was it a Broadway show I saw? A hot new book I read? Half-baked you come at me You know I told you not to call here no more The new best friend The olde headboard
Yo no comprendo, mi amour Oh no, yo no comprendo The new best friend The olde headboard La la la La la la La la la la
Where'd you get the dumb idea for all the secretive platonic dating? I have experience in the love and lives of man and machine
Yo no comprendo, mi amour Oh no, yo no comprendo The new best friend The olde headboard
What becomes a legend most? The love and lives of man and machine What becomes a legend most? The love and lives of man and machine What becomes a legend most? The love and lives of man and machine What becomes a legend most? The love and lives of man and machine What becomes a legend most? The love and lives of man and machine What becomes a legend most? The love and lives of man and machine The love and lives of man and machine.

The New Zero

He has agreed to take me to the ice hotel from the magazine What we will need is a gleaming key made of ice as well from the finest ice machine
It's there that no one will stare at your jaws and your long hair The claws in your fingers It's in the past when the passersby laughed at your strange way of speaking Your batteries leaking Oh no
Oh God no They don't know the new zero Oh god no They don't know the new zero
Uniforms worn so leisurely The reindeer skins, the privacy
How was he born? He's asking me Flapping his fins very impressively
It's there that no one will stare at your jaws and your long hair The claws in your fingers It's in the past when the passersby laughed at your strange way of speaking Your batteries leaking Oh no
Oh god no (He has agreed) They don't know (To take me) the new Zero (To the ice hotel) Oh god no (He has agreed) They don't know (To take me) the new Zero (To the ice hotel)
I really don't care and neither does he, if this hotel melts into the sea Polished are so rare, this way that we see The coldness helps, it's our favorite remedy I really don't care and neither does he, if this hotel melts into the sea Polished are so rare, this way that we see The coldness helps, it's our favorite remedy
It's there that no one will stare at your jaws and your long hair The claws in your fingers It's in the past when the passersby laughed at your strange way of speaking Your batteries leaking Oh no
Oh god no (He has agreed) They don't know (To take me) the new Zero (To the ice hotel) Oh god no (He has agreed) They don't know (To take me) the new Zero.

Rose K.

She doen't know the man who tries to push her wheelchair in the sand She just looks out to sea He's talking endlessly
Oh, why won't he shut up I take my medicine, I crush the paper cup Oh maybe he's my son, and he's come to set me free
She knows that she forgot that there's a story and she can't recall the plot Of course the family fought over the furniture
Oh, I don't know why they have taken all my favorite things away But one thing that's for sure, I don't know what they were
They say that a stone is a marker, and that is has weight They say it's solid, but it can deteriorate
The air is like a hand, reminding her of all the things she's planned Like air that thought is gone, never to come again
We came out to the beach to find the mind I've lost and cannot reach I used to keep it here It was much cleaner then
They say that a rose is a flower, and that it is red It blooms, it grows, it wilts and then it is dead
They say that a stone is a marker, and that is has weight They say it's solid, but it can deteriorate
They say that a rose is a flower, and that it is red It blooms, it grows, and then it is dead
Oh, Rose Kennedy.

Dwarfstar

I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar
The first time I met him, He said he was a Dwarfstar because he was small, and he was famous
I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar
The second time I met him, He said I could never be a Dwarfstar because I was too tall, and I wasn't famous
I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar
The thir-the second time I mean, that I went to see him He was not in a very good mood He said: "Stop coming around here!"
I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar
The last time that I went to see him, He had passed away!
I wanna tell you I wanna tell you I wanna tell you I wanna tell you I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar I wanna tell you about my friend the Dwarfstar
The end.

Signs of the Zodiac

Do you believe in the signs of the Zodiac? Haven't you found that the systems for planning always fail?
Can you avoid what gave daddy his heard attack? Have you tried everything anything, all to no avail?
I know what you need This will really work In ancient times, if you were sick, they make you bleed Oh honey, I know it hurts
Look all around you and notice you're not alone We want to give you the courage to go a different way Think of the love and attention we all have shown What did we do when we heard, well, we all came right away
I know what you need This will really work In ancient times, if you were sick, they make you bleed Oh honey, I know it hurts
Do you believe in the signs of the Zodiac?
Oh, oh I know what you need This will really work In ancient times, if you were sick they make you bleed Oh honey, I know it hurts
Do you believe in the signs of the Zodiac?

Trenchmouth

Yeah, he was a big land-owner He was a big mouth-breather But you can see his station wasgon stand alone Woulda, coulda, we should have known
He was a failed cropduster I am his little sister He was a whistleblower for the F.D.A. Maybe it was them sent him away He was a football player He didn't have a lot to say
That guy's a lousy actor He was a hard-core cracker He wore a trenchcoat and waved a Dixie flag But he's my brother, so I brag Don't be no dark naysayer So they all said he was a fag
He had a really big trenchmouth When we were living way down South He had a really big trenchmouth He had a really big trenchmouth When we were living way down South He had a really big trenchmouth
It's on the edge of nowhere No way for them to go there I know I'm not much help, but here is where I'll stay I'm hoping they find him someday I should put up some flyers Can you think of another way?
He had a really big trenchmouth When we were living way down South Then he up and disappeared He just left his car up here He had a really big trenchmouth When we were living way down South He had a really big trenchmouth
Nobody seems to know why he Would disappear and just leave me here On a dirty hill for all time Me and the pinetree that I stand behind He had a really big trenchmouth When we were living way down South He had a really big trenchmouth.

Herb Girls of Birekenau

Experiment victims walk by on a hill, with berries in aprons I still see them, still see black empty eyes staring No hair, yet ahead there's no dignity there They're not living, not dead
Swayback and ripcord and parachute face were pulled from the water, and put in a place I've not been to But what you'll find is the kommandant hoarding the vegetable rinds
It's not like they mattered Who sucked out your spirit? Listen how we shout at them They can't hear it
It's not fair And it seems impossible that it happened at all That there were people who saw the herb girls of Birkenau
The herb girls of Birkenau walk by on a hill With berries in aprons, I still see them still
It's not fair And it seems impossible that it happened at all That there were people who saw the herb girls
But what's fair? Anything is possible But can you understand that were people who saw the herb girls?
It's not fair (not fair) And it seems impossible that it happened at all That there were people who saw the herb girls Of Birkenau.

May Fly

The fly of May It lives one day
When that day is done, the May Fly does not complain It flies into the setting sun It goes back to the place From which it came
The fly of May
Ask how Ask why One day May Fly That's all you get You give no thought to it
Me, my life is long, with reasons few like you When I go and when I'm gone, I will understand these things I never knew
The fly of May
One day One day One day One day, it's long enough if you really think about it
The fly Of May It lives one day The fly (one day) of May (one day) The fly (one day) of May (one day) It lives one day One day One day The fly of May.

Christian Soldiers

The midevil exorcists used a 20-gallon brass syringe
A 20-gallon brass syringe filled with holy water
A 20-gallon brass syringe filled with holy water Which they pumped into...into the anus of the possessed.

Things I'm Gonna Do

Against the law to talk about the rocket in the park, I send it off to be examined by a scientific team On the moon On the moon On the moon On the moon
I organise a council where the prize goes unannounced until there's in the trees a city, Just some leaves we left it pretty Long ago Long ago Long ago Oh, so long ago
I have half a mind, it's cracked and breaking It's recommended as great for tasting Spit in the face of a tried and true one These are thing that I'm gonna do
My cave is lit with tiny lights I climb the stairs and catch the sights of other people far below I've heard of them, they think they know I make no friends, I've got no spark In my defense, I take apart what's put together easily This is all true I'll make it be
Every day like Jesus, he's not up there He can't see us, maybe eyes uplifted slowly for effect The land below me far away Far away Far away Oh, so far away
I have half a mind, it's cracked and breaking It's recommended as great for tasting Spit in the face of a tried and true one These are thing that I'm gonna do
I make no friends, I've got no spark In my defense, I take apart what's put together easily This is all true I'll make it be
I have half a mind, it's cracked and breaking It's recommended as great for tasting Spit in the face of a tried and true one These are thing that I'm gonna do.

Diamond Mind

I want a diamond I really do I think that you should give me one
Then you can prove your love is true, and that the gift giving has just begun
I want that diamond I want thtat thing A tennis bracelet, a ring
It better shine, it better cut I know it is expensive, but What other way can you make four months of your measly salary last a lifetime? And what other thing have I ever axed you for?
Besides the ability to read my mind? And I didn't get that either...yet
I want that diamond I want it so all of my irritating friends will know that I have worth Not only that, but that you love me even thought I'm fat
I want it and I want it now I'll say it once I don't care how you get it you can rob a store There just is nothing I want more than diamond jewelry for me and I'll talk louder so you see how very much it means to me
Even some little stud earrings Give me the God damn diamond!

How We Quit the Forest

The Ostrich and the Egret had a very fine flat to let Figurine hutch, no the place wasn't much but they got a peacock
His belongings were meager but he was pretty, would bring good luck They would sing songs all around the piano and do the cakewalk
He would say what he's gonna do He would say what he wanted to Ostrich and Egret were filled with regret, but the rent's well worth him
He felt things that they'd never felt, like the slap of a feather belt So still they sat by the fireplace silent A chill ran through them
Ostrich and Egret and Peacock had very small dreams Thinking of them just reminds me of calendar scenes Nobody's laughing when everyone's weeping, it seems
So that's how we quit the forest The scene wasn't what it used to be The scene is never what it used to be So that's how we quit the forest
The scene wasn't what it used to be The scene is never what it used to be So that's how we quit the forest.

Watch T.V.

I'm the lucky one, always having fun I tie back my hair I sit and watch T.V. I see only me, though I look for you there
Oh, where have you gone? Were you canceled? I change to channel two You were the one who gave me all my answers I changed, so did you
Try another show, with the volume low I make up what they say Where it used to be your face is an empty place Your co-stars look away
Oh, where have you gone? And do you miss me, and what we used to do? You were the one who'd talk and smile for half an hour, always new
I'm the lucky one I watch a re-run It looks a lot like you
One star lost a family, one family lost a star That's why I wait and watch to find out where you are
One family lost a star, one star they lost their family That's why I sit at home alone and watch T.V.
I can watch forever I can watch for hours It just gets better It gives me power I can watch for hours I can watch forever It gives me pleasure It makes me better I'm the lucky one, always having fun.
