I think the end is coming soon,
And you, you think I’m a fool,
That’s cool.
Maybe we’re both right.
I hope to see you there, but I don’t get out much.
We are talking out our touchholes,
Talking points for dinlows,
Soon we might all be ghosts,
I’ll be paler than most.
Maybe we’re alright.
I hope to see you there
And I’d be a liar if I said I wasn’t scared
Everything gets stupid the more you try to prove it.
I hope to see you there, but I won’t hold my breath.

Would you like to sit and talk,
About nothing at all,
With me
Then you’d see
Every day is the same to me.
Gonna quit this job pushing keys
Take that girl who sits next to me
And go
She doesn’t know
That’s gonna change
You’ll see
Gonna tell her how I feel and see how she feels about me
I’m gonna change
And break these chains
Of every day is the same to me
Here we go again, curled up and can’t breath. 3am can’t sleep what’s wrong with me. I swear tomorrow I’ll be different.
I’m gonna change
That You’ll see
Gonna tell her how I feel and see how she feels about me
I’m gonna change
Would you like to sit and talk

It doesn’t mean anything
Love or anything like that
It’s just a simple thing,
But it’s mine and I want it back
My teeth are crooked my looks are funny
Never had it bad or much money
But when I fall in love it is for keeps
And that’s mine
And I want it back.
There’s a hole where it used to be
In my heart and in my shelf
It shouldn’t mean so much
But in 84 I had a sense of self
My teeth are crooked my looks are funny
Never had it bad or much money
But when I fall in love it is for keeps
And that’s mine
And I want it back.
Maybe I’m out of touch
Maybe I care way too much
But it’s mine. It’s mine. It’s mine!

Aim Lame (Call Me Crazy)
04:28

Call me crazy
It’s all me
But you’re so tasteless
And chemical free
A is my favorite letter
It staves for asshole
Your heart is so black
And so is your soul
Man you remind me
Of the early 90s
Grandfather’s sweater
Quoting Eddie Vedder
Like a song in a 4-track
You’re never going to get back
A dinosaur in flannel
Just a dumb animal
I don’t mean to brag
But my dad could beat up your dad
These were the walls
I felt it
They melted
I never was the same
My poor brain
Turns out that the meaning of life is actually pretty lame
When you write it down
It’s just your name
Man you remind me
Of the early 90s
Grandfather’s sweater
Quoting Eddie Vedder
Like a song in a 4-track
You’re never going to get back
Nothing is that critical
You’re just so fucking cynical
Where were you when he died?
Sinking in my room with a broken heart
That was the day it fell apart
Turns out . . .
He did have a gun
No black hole Sun
No I’m not one
No island in the sun
We forgot to have fun
The dickheads won

Oh my God your Teeth!
I’ve got a thing about teeth
I’ve got a thing about a lot of things
But man your teeth
You woke right in and wrecked the place
Fugazi on your T-shirt
But there’s Phish all over your face
PH
Side work
Roadwork
Homework
When you gonna do some work?
We want to know.
WE WANT TO KNOW!
Dividing
Crossing
Can’t seem to stay inside the lines
Like a scribble
You do want you want
You say what you want
You take what you want
You make what you want
You gotta go
You do want you want
You say what you want
You gotta go
Fat piece of shit
When you gonna get it
TOGETHER!
You gotta clean your room
You gotta tell the truth
You gotta make it
MUCH BETTER!
You gotta go
You do want you want
You say what you want
You take what you want
You be what you want

Plastic fangs and masks
It could be anyone
They could be anyone
Fantastics up for grabs
I could be anyone
We could be anyone
Only once a year
I’m me
Eerie lantern light
It could be the very one
It could be the very one
Homes and bones of white
It’s not the only one
It’s not the only one
If every night
Could be tonight
I could be myself around you
Until then I’ll hide
And hold right up inside
Counting on the ground
I won’t share with anyone
I won’t share with anyone

Dinner is ready
Bath is all done
You’ve had your books
Now it’s bedtime
Mom and dad want to have fun
But we’re dead
Too tired
Clean up your toys
Finger out your nose
You’re dancing around like you’ve got to use the potty
So many “whys” the answer is still no
No
When the kids go down, you’d better be ready.

Fifteen, crowded room
Siamese Dream, and all of you.
Nineteen, we cut our hair.
The band broke up, but I swear
As I recall, we loved it all.
Twenty-two, the old man died.
B agreed, we took a ride.
California, Brooklyn bound
Wrote some songs
Couldn’t find the sound
Until now
As I recall, I loved it all.
All those days are gone
Sometimes I sit and I think, I think man that can’t be right
All those days are gone
But we have tonight
Tonight
Thirty-three
She walked in
New Year’s Eve
I was all in
I don’t live back then
But every now and then
Lost in a memory
Caught in a revelry

In My Car

This town is dragging me down
They don’t notice when I’m not around
Yeah, I got a plan now it’s cherry, it’s a 94
So I will make room and save room in my two door
For the next girl,
For the next girl
In my car
This town has got it coming
When I get these wheels up and running
And for the guys who laughed at me
I’m the one laughing now that your girl is in my backseat
Oh, the next girl,
Might be your girl,
In my car
When you last saw me
I was lonely
But now I only
Stop when
They ask for a ride
In my car
When you last saw me
In my car

Lullaby For Jack
04:32
|

|
I lay awake and when I pray
I try to think of things to say
God let him be a good man
And when I’m here and when I’m not
You’re adored boy, it won’t stop
Infinity is easy when I’ve got you up love
The Inevitable Hidden Track
It’s inevitable that we’ll all die
At least the vegetables can dry their eyes
You can tell by the way I stand that I don’t understand
They don’t care
They just stare
I’m their homes
The TVs glow
You can tell by the way they sit that they don’t give a shit
No one knows
No one knows what to stand for
But if you don’t, you will fall for
Anything
You can tell by what they preach
That they’re all just sheep
It’s inevitable
