what's it feel like when you go
the end is known to those who know
meanwhile she packs up her things
her necklace and rings
crawls back into bed and sings
why are you alone
did you do it over the phone
she asks as she grabs her comb
i don't really know
i guess i may never know
now this one's not a whore
but it's hard to ignore
when she's flailing out on the floor
she calls me a cunt
and says i put up a front
i only like her when she's drunk
but she don't really know
i guess she'd like me to drive her home
now the rope's round the beam
a reoccurring theme
go kick down the chair
not a moment to spare
if you think twice you'll start to care
you'll see the porch light glow
waving you in saying it's not time to go
but i would love to know
but it you insist i'll wait in the row

i've got powers that you don't have
i could fall in love with anyone
i could fall in love with everyone
if you give me just a little time
i've got powers that you don't have
i could fall in love with anyone
i could fall in love with everyone
if you give me just a little time
and then phone rings back
there's no way i'm awake
paint all the trophies black
and then you'll see the tangible is fake
i've got powers that you don't have
i could fall in love with anyone
i could fall in love with everyone
if you give me just a little time
i heard that you're just fine
there's no way i don't care
please pour the purple wine
and then you'll see free love is never fair
i've got powers that you don't have
i could fall in love with anyone
i could fall in love with everyone
if you give me just a little time

Say Uncle

i was watching a movie on tv
that bleeped out all the bad words
there was girl dressed in blood bleeding
through my window a swarm of birds
and i don't believe that i'm important enough
for you to take your time to meet me in the rough
say uncle
let go of me
i was watching that movie on tv
the girl in red looked right back at me
she said i have the fate as you
i'm stuck here like you're stuck here
the birds are too
and i don't believe that i'm important enough
for you to take your time to prove that you're tough
say uncle
let go of me
now i'm watching that movie on repeat
i know the lines i know every beat
over the credits i hear a voice mumble
singing the song
say uncle
let go of me

M. Satan

started in a rock band
ended in a punk
started laying layups
but you cannot dunk
you see the light
then close your eyes
started riding shotgun
ended in the trunk
started digging graveyards
now you spelunk
you lost a light
now realize
started with a girlfriend
ended with a monk
started as our presents
ended as our junk
you flick the light
to bats and flies
started writing love songs
but then i got drunk
now i'm floating in a beer can
my boat has sunk
My miller's light
So i close my eyes
And realize
The bats and flies
Are satan's spies
Not high

and i call and i call
but you could never ever hear
and i loved like a lot
still nothing can be clear
in the basement near the clubs
right underneath the stairs
and i freak the fuck out
but it doesn't solve a think
and it's bleak for a week
but then i shower and i sing
in the bathroom near the tub
right underneath my hair
and i cry to my guys
but they console like sea king crabs
and the salt on my lips
bond particles in labs
in the basement near the clubs
right underneath the stairs
we found your body
goodnight suzie
