Oh, the One You Love is the One You Want

Look into my eyes know that it will be alright Sit upon my thighs tell me what you’ve realized Oh, the one you love is the one you want Let’s go to the park Park in the dark Let’s go to the show Been practicing my dancing moves Oh, the one you love is the one you want Lucky we have love Lucky we are omnivores Lucky we have touch Lucky we have each other Oh, the one you love is the one you want

Work With You

I don’t work with you do you want me to work with you I’d work with you I would play it cool and I wouldn’t drool on my pillow I don’t work with you do you want me to work with you I’d work with you I would play it cool I wouldn’t call you beautiful I’d work with you I don’t work with you do you want me to work with you I’d work with you I’d hold your hand in the spring we’d be whistling I’d work with you I don’t go to school to watch you learn to finish off your math homework And you look so cute in your brand new boots they’re red and white and waterproof I don’t work with you do you want me to work with you I’d work with you

Painting of Lolita

I want it I need it I must have my reasons Your picture’s on my wall Your painting of Lolita I want it can’t have it It’s just a bad habit Your picture my punk rock Your painting of Lolita Buddy you know I want you so badly Want to feel your arms wrapped around my waist Show me your guns punch me in the face I’m a punching bag Let’s have some fun punch me in the face I’m a punching bag I want it you’re lovely I’m just a sick puppy Your picture’s on my wall Your painting of Lolita

Bang Bang!

Bang bang goes the hammer it’s standard you force me to remember The good times the bad times you force me to remember Bang bang goes the gavel I’ve traveled though court systems and gallows The verdict was shallow it forced me to remember Bang bang goes the guillotine on the french king the princess sat there watching and bound Cuz her turn is next the angels sing now Ba-ba-ba-da Bang bang goes the bedpost it’s the most sex I’ve had in years my dear You’re the best you force me to remember

Watch the Kids Cross the Crosswalk

I am waking in the morning I’ve got to get going Put my shoes on put my shirt on I’ve got to get going Eat my breakfast wash the dishes catch both my buses So I go out in the morning I’m in such a hurry I am shaking in the afternoon why’d I do what I do what I did to you Think I’ll leave work take a long walk watch the kids cross the crosswalk Take my tie off take my t-shirt off sit on the toilet So I go home in the evening oh fuck this feeling I am leaving in the evening I’ve got to get going Eat my dinner drink my liquor I’ve got to get going Take my tie off take my t-shirt off catch all the reruns So I pass out in the evening I’ll catch you in the morning

1959

It was 1959 and I was heading back to spain from cuba Mary drove us through the mountain pass I was delusional in andalucia thought I saw my senorita Make it to sevilla before dawn It was dangerous for all of us that summer with the matadors and bulls It was 1959 and it was 95 degrees before the sun came up It was 1959 and the matador had died before the sun went down It was dangerous for all of us that summer with the matadors and bulls It was 1959 and in two years I would die on the second of july It was 1959 and I was honest brave and true in every word I wrote It was dangerous for all of us that summer with the matadors and bulls

Dorothy

Dorothy please ignore me don’t say it’s wrong to hide, oh oh Dorothy she’s a nazi and I’m anne frank in the attic, oh oh Dorothy lost the cold clothes the black boots and the black gun, oh oh Dorothy would you love me if I sang in the right key?

Saw You With Devon

Turn the radio off cuz I’d like to talk about what I saw in the cafeteria I saw you with devon drinking a soda I saw you with devon drinking a soda Park your car in my driveway tell me you’re sorry you’re about to freak I saw you with devon drinking a soda I saw you with devon flirting like grownups I saw you with devon drinking a soda I saw you devon flirting like grownups I saw you with devon drinking a soda I am a human he is a robot

Birds Interlude

Like a Rabbit

On the way home on the telephone on the beltway doing 90 Say I love you love to kiss you kiss your neckline after midnight In the autumn in the winter in the basement in the summer In the bathroom in the bedroom in my mom’s bed with my best friend

Jersey Wall

Eyes were fresh with wet emotion shouldn’t say those things so stupid went ahead and said them anyway Is it just a pointless problem smoking weed or smoking opium Met a girl from new orleans she was only 17 when I was 21 Is it just a pointless problem smoking weed or getting way too drunk Heart’s the wheel she was the driver drove me straight into the jersey wall Tongue’s the knot that she had twisted when I rot in hell she’ll miss me Maybe I have got it wrong I’ll end up up in heaven Tongue’s the knot that she had twisted maybe I am just regressing Don’t be depressed your life’s not meaningless the lord has a purpose and I’m so sure of My convictions they are not predictions they are not predicated on medications Don’t be impressed cuz I’m not worth it I’m not perfect so damn worthless You’re just a bored girl I’m just a dumb boy wasting our lives all of our lives Eyes were red with tense emotion shouldn’t say those things so stupid went ahead and said them like a fool Is it just a pointless problem smoking weed or dropping lsd Met a girl from new jersey she was only ripening when I was getting old Is it just a pointless problem smoking weed or getting way too stoned

England for the English

Didn't do semester abroad spent in London having fun you know I notice you know that England's for the English hooligans at the football match none of them is quite the catch you know I notice you know that England's for the English and now I know it's so atypical so atypical I'm having fun and feeling fine feeling that I'm so alive listening to 45s see the girl in the floral prints looks so European and you know I notice you know that England's for the English

A Rotten Scoundrel

I dream in pieces the fragments are making me abrasive I'm chasing my anger in the morning the story's repeated each weekday night when I wish I was sleeping and each lovely girl that I've been seeing doesn't make me feel that life has meaning I creep through windows and backyards I'm hiding from her father his shotgun he thinks I'm such a rotten scoundrel found out the secrets he knows the truth but he don't believe it sees the scene but he can't see it it happened it a darkened basement I weep on weekends my best friends remember back in college the knowledge I learned then doesn't seem to make sense tired and restless should not have done the drugs that I did should have paid much more attention should have gone to all my classes
