If you want to love somebody
Then you've got to learn their name
No one loves you if you're not trying yeah yeah yeah
If you want to make me happy
Then don't call me by my name
Call me dumb dumb, call me boring yeah yeah yeah
For a minute there, I almost believed you, but
Nothing hurts
Nothing hurts
Nothing hurts more than a low blow from someone who knows you
If you want to drive me crazy
Let me smell you can conceive
Can this daby have a baby yeah well maybe
And if you want to have that baby
Then there is a price to pay
No one lives with no one dying yeah yeah yeah
For a minute there, you made me feel a little younger, but
Nothing works
Nothing works
Nothing works when you're feeling old, now I'm feeling older
And no one helps
No one helps
No one helps when you're feeling low and you oughta know from experience

I wanted more than I could ever have
Naturally
Not from Philadelphia or LA but New Jersey in a way
People
Who can say that they're from somewhere
Can they say just why they've stayed
People
In love with eachother
Have they tried some of my sweet pie
And I
I'd like to try being
People
With achievable goals
People
Who can rely on eachother
People
Who make a lot of money
And don't know what to do with or without it
I want somebody to tell me that I'm losing my mind
And I didn't know just what I was doing
If I had complete control I would not be on this planet
And I sure as hell would not be a man
When the dark doesn't know what I'm doing
And my heart isn't closed to the door
When the darkness doesn't like where I'm heading
And the smell of my ambition is fading
But the smile on my lips isn't faded
Then this might as well be my final resting place
I'm the one, I'm the one true angel

Leave Me Alone
06:04

Cannot stand the sound of a human voice right now
What is it that has changed inside of me?
What am I worried about if it's human oh my goodness wha m i doin
Nerve damage runs in my family
Alzheimer's and Multiple Sclerosis
Mercury poisoning I chewed the tuna til its liquid soaked my membranes
My ankles itch, I can't remember shit
It's easy to live in the moment when you have this
Buried alive in it I wish I had a future then I'd live to see it
Once in a while
A body hurts
The brain won't work
And there's nothing for it
Once in a while
I'll have desires
Inexcusable
In polite society
Once in a while
I'll ask of you
To leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Don't try to take me in the morning you sweet dumbass
Leave me alone
Don't try to pick me up don't put me down yeah don't do nothing
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
When silence serves
A thousand words
The unspeakable
Falls on every ear
It's hard to hear
I strain to see
Drink lots of water
Forever thirsty
I'm flushing out
Your hold on me
It's you
Ooloi
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
When every nerve
Is feeling torn
There's nothing for it
But to leave me alone
Without a word
You're probing me
I cannot stand it
You Oankali

Get your life in order
Pay your debts
Exact justice
Will be left behind
Break for the border
They'll never let you go now
Alive
No one here believes you
They're not your friends
Exact justice
Or be left to hang
Break for the border
They'll never let you live now
Meghan
Has spoken
Meghan
My old friend
Break for the border
Break for the border

Infinite Love
04:07

Everyday
I want to kill myself
Everyday
Upon average
The last year took three years right out of me
Finally I look my age
I'm diseased
Burn this flesh right off of me
Finally I see what you all saw in me
But a byrne cannot stop
The flame
Self improvement is deranging me
Can't you see I don't care about anything?
All I need is negative energy
Everyday
I prove myself wrong
Everyday
I keep hanging on
Love to laugh but I don't love happiness
Hate to fight but I am full of hate
And love [infinite love]
And love [infinite love]
And love [infinite love]
And love [infinite love]
Everyday
Everyday

Will I Never
05:24
|
|||
|
I've never been in love before
I don't know exactly what it is
Cause when you say "I love you my beauty"
It's my beauty
That you're lovin
I have nothin
To do with it
I've never felt your touch before
I don't exactly how you feel
Cause when you place your hands on my body
I feel nothin
But appeasement
Of your skeazy fantasy
Please don't tell me that I love you
Please don't tell me how I feel
I never loved you I just need someone to make me feel like my body is real
I never felt so good before
I started asserting myself
I worked for everything I am
Now I'm a new someone else.
[I will be kind to my love][Will I never love you at all]
[I will be kind to my love][Will I never love you at all]
Baby I am broken up
[I will be kind to my love][Will I never love you at all]
Baby I am broken up
[I will be kind to my love][Will I never love you at all]
Baby I am broken up
[I Will B Cynd to my love][Will I never love you at all]
Baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby
[I will be kind to my love][Will I never loved you at all]

Nelly

I see in you Nelly
An aged woman
Your hair is grey and you have
Bent shoulders
This bed is the fairy cave under Pennistone Crag
And you are gathering elf-bolts to hurt our hefers
Pretending while I am near
That they are only locks of wool
That's what you'll come to fifty years hence
I know you are not so no
I'm not wandering
You're mistaken
Or else I should believe you really were that withered hag
And I should think I was under Pennistone Crag
I'm conscious that it's night and there are two candles on the table
Making the black press shine like jet
It's against the wall
It always is
It's against the wall
Well it does seem odd
It's against the wall
I see a face in it!
Oh dear
I thought I was at home
I'm not wandering
You're mistake
Or else I should believe you really were that withered hag
And I should think I was under Pennistone Crag
I'm conscious that it's night and there are two candles on the table

Mistress
03:44
|
|||
|
KO, you knocked me out
And I don't want anyone to know
It isn't right to tell someone
What they do is or isn't right
So how could I just say that?
I couldn't trust you as my wife
But I'm gonna trust you for all my life
Cause that's never gonna happen
If you were more faithful
Then there wouldn't be a love between us
Cause we've got the perfect love
Nobody else can come between us
You cannot cheat on me
Well not explicitly
Because we're dating other people
I'll never lie to you
I got no reason to
I am your mistress [for all of my life]
I'll never be your wife
But I'll be with you for all of my life
Making eyes at you
Grazing thighs with you
Your sexy penpal disguised as junk mail
I got a surprise for you
We had a kid or two
I am your mistress for all of my life
Suddenly oh my god!
I caught you cheating with somebody new
Well when did things get that bad?
We could've talked about it
Now I'm gonna miss ya
For all of my life

Less Than A Woman
06:08

|
ooh baby
i wanna be separated by you
i want a woman
but not just anyone woman
can you feel me?
inside
would you stick it to me like i stick it to you?
some say she's a man
some say she's a woman
but that's not right, that's not right
She's more than a woman
More than a woman to me
More than a woman
More than a woman to me
ooooo She's my daddy
She's my big dick daddy
aannd She's my mama
So I'm gonna
Nomma onher camel llama yama rama
Nomma nomma i'ma gonna mama up to her
When she puts her dick inside of me
I have to poo I have to pee
But I don't want her to leave me
I'm clearing up my schedule
To make time for new things to blow off
I wouldn't tell you if it wasn't true
When she's inside do I need to pee
I cry I need you
When she's inside of me I feel that I'm
Much greater than
When I'm inside of her
And that right there, there's a man who wasn't stopped in time
I'm
Less than a woman
I'm less than a woman
But I am more than a man
I'm less than a woman
Less than a woman
But I am more than a man
I'm less than a woman
The take away is
What I get
From a dick
I couldn't get from anyone
Less than a woman
