lyrics

Everybody wants a little...

Prying open my eyes with a vice
Cooling my wet hot brains with dry ice
I'll thaw and wash it down the drains at your timeshare
Go ahead, see if I care
You'll say then volley hardly toward me
That hateful glare

Just know I have no respect
For those that count checks
And coins and place bets
On losing horses and dogs
And fighting cocks with their
Dead daughter's
College savings fund
Sacrificing fading memories of
Hot Cross Buns
In the schoolyard

With pigtails and pink nails and a high-pitched squeal
She had a chip on her shoulder and a soul to steal

Here I am
There I stand
Watch your mouth
And be a Man
I've never known
What's right for me
Until it's way too late.

Some might say
That I'm a literal miracle
Hypothetical mystical
Others a medically pitiful
Irresponsible amateur
Lost mind colored day-glo
Orange like the setting sun
On a dry autumn's eve
With the shadows on the leaves
In the backyard

I stay hard
Much longer than I should
When I watch porno in slow motion
Sound on mute
Listening to Neil Young's 'Harvest'
On my grandfather's phonograph and
Cry until my shirt's all wet

Here I am
There I stand
Watch your mouth
And be a man
I've never known
What's right for me
Until it's way too late.

Everybody wants a little peace
A little peace
Should I repeat this

Your drunk laugh is loud like the thunder
Feel proud when I'm undercover
Like a mouse with an umbrella
Yelling hello to a crowd of wishful fellows
Wearing sandals colored yellow

There's always room for Jello when you're fasting
It's hard to answer questions that I'm asking
With a mind full of self-assured assumptions
And an air of ignorance
That bests the next to last caress
From a dying lover in Texas

Bleeding out of her ears
On the bleached, cracked pavement
Glowing, all of her tears
Alit by naked incandescents
Bathing the brown back alley in a calm golden hue,
Softly illuminating while her face turns blue
