Doomsday
01:10
|
|||
you felt a little doomsday
so you hit the club on thursday
but it only made you question further
your chaotic psychic order
always lived in paradise
but even angels roll the dice
smoke a cigarette or four
show up blasted at your door
fumigated your insides
whisper, nothing left to hide
knock a drink and call a car
ask your buddies where they are
situations shift again
i can be your only friend
so a little birdy told me
missus temple, call me shirley

Fold
01:50
|
|||
anybody out there
my cat's up a tree
someone wake the proctor
invigilating
hey, look at me
iām talking to you
what do you mean
you donāt have a clue
feeling turns to sound
as you dissipate like cloud
the future's upon your skin
like gold
everyoneās a critic but i couldnāt be
got too many contradictions burying me
hey, donāt believe
what theyāre sellinā you
itās guaranteed
not none of itās true
light fills up your mouth
and your eyes in truth enshroud
you know that you'll never win
so fold

Smart & Sensorial
01:36
|
|||
youāre smart and sensorial
your looks are mercurial
your touch is indelible
'words are intelligible
when you walk my way
feels as though i may
slip into a fictive state
of some divine transfiguration
you're cool and commendable
your wealth is unspendable
your will's insurmountable
heart indefatigable
and if i may say
all the different ways
that you make me feel
a cornucopia of exaltation

What Are Friends For?
02:05
|
|||
what are friends for?
just as soon as you get here
you're back out the door
and what's more
when I need you most
you fall right down to the floor
oh, what a chore
tell me all of your problems
that's what i'm here for
'til I'm bored
then I best be off
to find someone new to ignore
don't you know
all your feelings are wrong
all your memories are nothin' but daydreams
so it goes, all your pissin' and moaning;
nobody's listening what you're saying

|

i'm going to roseville
i'll meet you there
the world is ending
but, i don't care
i'm going to roseville
i'm going to roseville
i'll see ya there
i'm heading over
the break of dawn
so you'll forgive me
if i do yawn
but i ain't tired
no, i'm just bored
'til i'm in roseville
then i'll cut the cord
elsewhere there's
nothing for you now
guess it don't
matter anyhow
it's just the roses there
will make you feel brand new
so if you're no square
i'll see you there
real soon
i'm going to roseville
give you a share
the world is ending
no time to spare
so let's get going
no need to be scared
you see, in roseville
love's in the air
in roseville
love's in the air
in roseville
love's in the air

Beautiful Thing
03:00
|
|||
i checked my pulse today
it didnāt feel the same
as when iām with you
if thatās an issue
please donāt let me know
it never seemed the same
it did that yesterday
we were together
markedly better
than else before
you called me sleepyhead
i wouldnāt leave the bed
until i saw you
i jumped right on you
youāve got a beauty
unlike anything
and you know
just what i mean
you beautiful
beautiful thing
and you know
what light you bring
you beautiful
beautiful thing
with your hair all down
you look just like a town
thatās been demolished
with one last polished statue
standing tall
youāve got eyes
they're like the clearest skies
in october
a little colder
when you look at me
and you know
just what i mean
you beautiful
beautiful thing
and you know
what joy you bring
you beautiful
beautiful thing

Yourself, as a Friend
01:10
|
|||
your problems wonāt be solved
at the end of a cigarette
your sorrow won't be healed
if you feed it regret
let me tell you a secret
you'll probably forget
the world's a little sweeter
with yourself, as a friend

Baby, I'm Sorry
03:09
|
|||
baby, i'm sorry
things didn't work out in the end
baby, i'm sorry
that our love didn't last
i couldn't tell you
how sorry i really am
i'm sorry that so many
f*cked up things were said
and baby, i'm sorry
that you and me
couldn't stay together
so much for forever
i'll tell you, right now
i'm lonely and decrepit
i've got no soul to relieve me
from pain unending
oh baby, please
understand
the horror that lies inside of me
the horrible, treacherous things
that only i can see
baby, i'm sorry
that i'm so wrong
i'm so f*cking sorry
so, i'm writing this song
i'm genuinely
so f*cking sorry
that we couldn't
get along

i keep on waiting for a thing to arrive
they tell me
you keep on waiting iām afraid you will die
i tell them
the thing iām waiting forās a will to survive
so help me
if i never get out of here alive
youād better hand me the noose
better pay off my dues
now tell me, whatās there to lose
but your mind?
youāre always looking for a puzzle to solve
itās cute, but
thereās nothing more than desultory resolve
of course, yet
maybe thereās something where the logic dissolves
and further
weāre all just waiting by phones for a call
from someone
behind the scenes
an orchestrator of dreams
a certain someone
who deemed us to be
