"Sleepwalking"
"Sleepwalking"
I fell in love and
I needed a roadmap
To find out where you lived
So excited now
Sleepwalking, cuz I'm sleepwalking
The white trash boys
Listen to the headphones
Blasting white noise
In the convenience store parking lot
I hung around there
Wasting my time
Hoping you'll stop by
Cuz I'm sleepwalking, I'm sleepwalking
A mutual friend's parents
Left town for a week
So we raided their liquor stash
And walked down by the riverside
Sleepwalking, cuz I'm sleepwalking

"So Much Beauty In Dirt"
"So Much Beauty In Dirt"
Out of breath and out of cash, find yourself watching M.A.S.H., every night
on the couch. Woman says let's take a drive down south, roll down the
windows and open our mouths taste where we are and play the music loud. Stop
the car, lay on the grass, the planets spin and we watch space pass.Walk a
direction, see where we get. I never knew nothin' so there's nothin' to
forget. Get real drunk and ride our bikes. There's so much beauty it could
make you cry. The rich get money but never what they want. Find ourselves a
new place to haunt. Climb up the fire escape do it 'til the ground looks far
away. Go night swimming, leave our clothes on the ground, when we get busted
we just stand there proud. It's the truth we all been wrong make it up and
let's move on. Playing cards we all get to act sly there's so much beauty it
could make you cry.

"Space Travel Is Boring"
"Space Travel Is Boring"
Won herself a pass to some far off moon
It was second class but what's to lose
And looking out her window she could more than assume
That you can't see air or time
She's the only rocketeer in the whole damn place
They gave her a mirror so she could talk to a face
She still got plenty lonely but that's just the case
With time, time, time
Started hearing voices sometime in June
She knew she could go crazy but didn't think that soon
Now she doesn't feel lonely but she'd just as soon
Try, try, try try
Man shot to the moon
I read a paperback and want to come home soon
I'm shot to the moon
Been there a half an hour, I want to come home soon

"Spitting Venom"
"Spitting Venom"
We were spitting venom at most everyone we know
If the damned gave us a road map then we'd know just were to go
Now let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
Well you were talking soda pop
You were talking quite a lot
The opinions that I do not give
The opinions I ain't got
So let it drop
Let it all drop
Let is all drop
Let it all fall off there oh
Well you were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If you truly knew the gravity you'd know just where to go
Well let it drop
Let it drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
My ears were pressed so firmly right against your mouth to hear
When you tried to spit the venom out your words were not so clear
Now drop
Hold on to what you need
We've got a knack for fucked up history
Hold on to what you need
We've got a knack for messed up history
Well we went downtown and we sat in the rain
Both looking one direction and waiting for a train of thought over
Thought over
I didn't know you kept track I didn't know there was a score
Well it looks like your the winner and I ain't gonna play no more
It's over
Game over
Well we walked real stiff and our canes hit the ground
You hit me with yours
And said, "You're gonna stare me down"
It's over
Oh it's over
You can say what you want but don't act like you care
It takes more than one person to decide whats fair
Its over
Think it over
You were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If the damned gave you a road map then you'd know just where to go
So we carried all the groceries in while hauling out the trash
And if this doesn't make us motionless I do not know what can
What a rotten thing to say such an awful thing to say
I didn't mean to bite you, sorry
I always did what I always did what I always had to sling
So let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
Let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it drop
Oh let it all fall off
Cheer up baby it wasn't always quite so bad for every
Bit of venom that came out, the antidote was had
[X7]

"Steam Engenius"
"Steam Engenius"
I was born in the factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?
You cheered as I was split in half
A mechanical sacrificial calf for you
Oh, all for you
Steam engenius, you see
Steam engenius enough to answer anything you need
But what's the use?
Human nature was what started me
Well, I acted once right but naturally it wasn't hatching love
Though not my fault
No
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He driven his car
He's sitting there burning
Now in the parking lot
Just for you
What a waste of time
What a waste of words
What a waste of strength
Well, I smoke in binary
And you see far
You meant for clenching your leg
I was born in the factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use?
Oh, what's the use?
Bliss through waters, I was split in half
A mechanical sacrificial calf that flew
Oh, off they flew
Steam engenius, you see
Steam engenius enough to answer anything you need
And I like speed
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He driven his car
He's sitting there
Waiting car in the parking lot
Out for you
What a waste of time
What a waste of words
What a waste of strength
Well, I smoke in my air
And you spoke far
You meant for dizzying lay
(I was born in the factory)
Both hassle men
Half like a joke
Trying to make another joke
Laugh, ha ha
Stasisity's what you brought
Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
Rickshaw..
In the past talking present tense
Gonna break it
Gonna wreck it
Gonna try to make it all make sense
Stasisity's what you got
Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
Steam engenius, you see
Steam engenius enough to bring my own damn doom
What could I do?
I been blamed then blamed the groom
Well, deep inside everybody knew it was them
It's caught on them
Things rain in stories Greek
I didn't want it, you gave me deity
It was you
Yeah, all for you
I was born in the factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use?
Oh, what is the use?
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He driven his car
He's sitting there crying
All the way in the parking lot
Just for you
I'll start up the man
(?)
Then rip into my
(?)
(?)
I didn't even know that was my own damn plan
What a waste of time
What a waste of words
What a waste of breath
Well, I spoke it by now
You broke your thought
You meant for (?)
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He driven his car
He's sitting there crying
Now waiting for you in the parking lot
Going woo-hoo
Stasisity's what you got

"Strangers To Ourselves"
"Strangers To Ourselves"
We're lucky that, we're lucky that we slept
Didn't seem like we realized we'd be stuck in traffic
We're that lucky we slept
Not to be confused the points from the purpose
We're lucky that,
We're lucky that we're so capable to forget.
How lucky we are, that we are, so easy, so easy to forget
How often we become susceptible to regret, I do regret.
How often we are confused. How honestly we have tried but we'll forget
We have designed, have designed, have designed more unusual things as yet
How often we are confused
How honestly we have tried but will forget, we'll forget.

"Styrofoam Boots / It's All Nice On Ice, Alright"
"Styrofoam Boots / It's All Nice On Ice, Alright"
Well all's not well
but i'm told that it'll all be quite nice
you'll be drowned in boots like Mafia
but your feet will still float like Christ's
and i'll be damned
they were right
i'm drowning upside down
my feet afloat like Christ's
i'm in heaven
trying to figure out which stack
they're going to stuff us atheists into
when Peter and his monkey laugh
and i laugh with them
i'm not sure what at
they point and say
we'll keep you in the back
polishing halos, baking manna and gas
well some guy comes in looking a bit like everyone i ever seen
he moves just like crisco disco
breath 100% listerine
he says looking at something else
but directing everything to me
ever time anyone gets on their knees to pray
well it makes my telephone ring
and i'll be damned
he said you were right
no one's running this whole thing
he had a theory too
he said that god takes care of himself
and you of you
it's all nice on ice alright
and it's not day
and it's not night
but it's all nice on ice alright
