Montreal is Where I began to feel inside the gray sadness of winter. When you told me that this isn't it, And I drove away. Walking to the statue in the park, Through snow drifts up over our knees, And every street sign written in French. We sat by the statue. You looked in my eyes, Then said, "I'm so sorry." Later, laying on your bed, Wondering what's going wrong. Every time I'd ask you'd sta...

Sleeping in the beetle bug With a hundred pounds of air in my heart Don't think that I'm able to sympathize I'm happier to see it gone Floating above your house like a penguin Dropping cherries from my mouth Tapping the walnuts and the shadows out of a dreaming Pair of brown eyed ghosts In each of your eyes, I saw it's spring Where every mouth wakes up to a smile and a yawn Grass is long and l...
The summer's good for tulips though pansies disagree They find the heat most distasteful and humidity Far too grim to stand up tall and bargain with the bees They prefer to droop and mope and wait for autumn's breeze Wait for autumn's breeze The autumn's good for pumpkins though apples don't approve The trees that they've been living on now forces them to move And rudely lets them to fall and ...

She says I'm boring her camera It takes more to delight the cadaver Night eyes on icy patrols Your's were not so Nazi feline Mine were as dead as monks and Our particles are in motion Night eyes producing ashes We love to view unfortunate passions Still she takes my photo to bed No mere limp verse could incite Identity destruction Our particles are in motion Sometimes we're not legible But we'...
Now a man loving a woman that's a very Common thing common but beautiful all the same Still there's something so neat something so Extraordinarily sweet with a man who's in love With a man I have nothing to say about the traditional ways They're fine if they work well for you But there is something so right so completely Out of sight With a man who's in love with a man Or a woman who's in love...

They had painted her face like a man's mistake Like a mental state, gang-banging A sad return to the eagle-shaped mirror I'm the kind of mannequin that cheats and Opens its eyes to the ladies of the spread She took me home and spit in my drink She spoke of Germaine Greer and Friedan I didn't know what to think I took her standing in the kitchen, ass against the sink She draped me in a stoll, w...

Just before the afternoon creeps in Just before it gets too hot to be outside I like to lay on my back in the grass and watch the airplanes go by and I dream that you are an airplane shooting across the sky You are an airplane You're a strong and dangerous machine When you fall you'll fall down so fast When you crash I want to go down with you We'll make such a horrible mess Just before the fl...
I can see that you're rubbing off on everyone you know. You're rubbing off on me, I can feel your incredible glow. I can hear your happy voice in other people's voices.

I can see how you sweetened up both of your grumpy roommates. Now they even say...

Everything is falling apart, yes, I am Watching me watch birds watch people Watching me watch birds watch people I wear my bow tie to bed 'Cos I'm waiting for the gorgeous young man Hiding in the spaces That darkness hides gorgeous young men Everything is falling apart, yes, I am Watching me watch birds watch people Watching me watch birds watch people We are only waiting here to die At least ...
I'm so glad I have you to think of To channel all my loving energy into Even though my feelings aren't returned And in time I won't think about you this way That still doesn't stop me If just for now, wishing we were each other's baby I feel these emotions for you Still I know there's no way That you're the person I imagine you to be I don't know if it was chance Or if this happened by fate I ...
How will I ever know you enough to love you if you're hiding who you are? Don't ask me to explain. Who are you hiding you from, across the table with a penny in each eye? Don't ask me to explain. I'd like to marry all of my close friends, And live in a big house together by an angry sea. Am I the devil's marbles don't move on without me Who will be watching my body when I sleep? Who will I bel...
When you come around Everything else disappears My ears disappear When you come around Everything else vanishes Crowds slowly fade When you come around Everything evaporates When you come around, around, around On the news at night They talk about the disappearances They interview the people Who were witnesses Most are shocked, some don't care When you come around Everything else disappears My...
I can't stop your memory From breaking my heart Devils were laughing so loud I couldn't hear the radio In the dark bags become Sneaking devils waiting to pounce And display impressive claws I might wink at them before they land I can hear my heart beat Across the room behind the closet door When I'm laying in my bed in the dark I can't gather all the love I need when I need it I'm not mad I un...
I want to write something beautiful, Something so beautiful That I just can't sing it without getting that incredible feeling, The one that just overwhelms my senses. Because it's the only thing I have, It's the only thing that makes my life worthwhile. I know there aren't too many people Who allow themselves to say what they feel, So I was watching your eyes, In case they just might say somet...
You remind me of a snowflake That falls while comets hit the earth Destroying buildings and trees But you are so light in the air You never disrupt a thing Orenda, if you were here I could walk through you Orenda In my bed at night, I dream You're a ghost that only cats can see Some nights you talk to me Some nights you sing me to sleep While moonlight showers the room Orenda, if you were here...
Montreal is Where I began to feel inside the gray sadness of winter. When you told me that this isn't it, And I drove away. Walking to the statue in the park, Through snow drifts up over our knees, And every street sign written in French. We sat by the statue. You looked in my eyes, Then said, "I'm so sorry." Later, laying on your bed, Wondering what's going wrong. Every time I'd ask you'd sta...
Sleeping in the beetle bug With a hundred pounds of air in my heart Don't think that I'm able to sympathize I'm happier to see it gone Floating above your house like a penguin Dropping cherries from my mouth Tapping the walnuts and the shadows out of a dreaming Pair of brown eyed ghosts In each of your eyes, I saw it's spring Where every mouth wakes up to a smile and a yawn Grass is long and l...
The summer's good for tulips though pansies disagree They find the heat most distasteful and humidity Far too grim to stand up tall and bargain with the bees They prefer to droop and mope and wait for autumn's breeze Wait for autumn's breeze The autumn's good for pumpkins though apples don't approve The trees that they've been living on now forces them to move And rudely lets them to fall and ...
I'm so excited, I just can't wait for you to come I've been living alone and lonely far too long When I see your face and the love that's in your eyes You know I just can't place this feeling I'm so excited All my sad days will soon be over I know you can do it Because you did it before And I'm happy when I'm with you I guess it's a lot to ask of you To change everything that's bad You know I ...
Tim, wish you were born a girl, So I could've been your boyfriend. I know it's not possible now. I just never met a girl I like half as much as you. And we could lay around in bed, stay there all day, Or at least until the afternoon And I could make you spaghetti with tomato sauce With just a touch of oregano and a parsley stem. And then when you got sick, I could take the day off work. I coul...

Hissing Fauna Are You the Destroyer
Saw her at Go kissing girls, what a shock I said you must be an artist She muttered her reply, I was judging her friend As the DJ played a dead jam No one wants to dance They're outside smoking cigarettes Matthew was there, yes, he gave me the eye Saying, "It doesn't kill to try" then blue lights all around Eva, I'm sorry, but you will never have me To me you're just some faggy girl And I need...
Cato, play with my head I won't know the difference If we're living in the novelist Or statistician Cato, mess with my concepts My inner vision Like a strobing light Please confuse my every decision I can't even pretend that you are my friend What has happened to you and I?

Those with the golden axe have tried to tell me What they say That the bird in my chest was dead But that's never, never, never She ain't my thug no more, ain't no kind of killer And she can break 'em off if she damn well please Just as long as she brings it home to me And it's still hot Can you touch what I'm saying? It's like, did Shuggie do it yet? No, not yet, wait Those with the golden ax...
Nihilists with good imaginations I am satisfied hiding in our friend's apartment Only leaving once a day to buy some groceries Daylight, I'm so absent minded, nighttime meeting new anxieties So am I erasing myself? Hope I'm not erasing myself I guess it would be nice to give my heart to a God But which one, which one do I choose? All the churches filled with losers, psycho or confused I just w...

The past is a grotesque animal And in its eyes you see How completely wrong you can be How completely wrong you can be The sun is out, it melts the snow that fell yesterday Makes you wonder why it bothered I fell in love with the first cute girl that I met Who could appreciate George Bataille Standing at a Swedish festival Discussing, 'Story of the Eye' Discussing, 'Story of the Eye' It's so e...
I spent the winter on the verge Of a total breakdown while living in Norway I felt the darkness of the black metal bands But being such a fawn of a man I didn't burn down any old churches Just slept way too much, just slept My mind rejects the frequency, it's static craziness to me Is it a solar fever? The TV man is too loud, our plane is sleeping on a cloud You turn the dial, I'll try and smi...
My, my, you busted me Like a Robocop, strike me With your riding crop I'm forever going celibate tomorrow Tonight like success knows no shame Oh no, she's a rejecter I must protect myself There's the girl that left me bitter Want to pay some other girl To just walk up to her and hit her But I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't My, my, this demon heart Of the master's hand, crush me Why,...
You're no different from the prints that crease the wires Or mosquitoes that now operate on her brain Thought that if I sank the seine I might find you I might find you I'm no different from the claw they mic from the stair Or fake diamonds that are glued to eyes of plastic crows Thought that where the planters go, you might find me You might find me
We just want to emote 'til we're dead I know we suffer for fashion or whatever We don't want these days to ever end We just want to emasculate them forever Forever, forever Oh pretty sirens don't go flat It's not supposed to happen like that Not like that, not like that We've got to keep it physical When our tele's are 6 hours away Please call to say that you miss me, feel me or whatever Vicis...
She says I'm boring her camera It takes more to delight the cadaver Night eyes on icy patrols Your's were not so Nazi feline Mine were as dead as monks and Our particles are in motion Night eyes producing ashes We love to view unfortunate passions Still she takes my photo to bed No mere limp verse could incite Identity destruction Our particles are in motion Sometimes we're not legible But we'...

Nothing can save me from the pain of you not loving me It doesn't help me to complain I just have to feel it and hope it goes away But it's so useless and it hurts just like it did before I'm afraid that I'll close up inside and no longer feel anything anymore It's such a strange need to be deprived of To just want love and feel happy
Everybody does the same things Everybody's the same Everyone that is 'cept for my friend Nicki Lighthouse She is from the jungle and has never rode a bike Instead she rides on apes and llamas everywhere she goes And everywhre she goes the boring people say "There she goes again the strangest girl that's ever been" Everybody thinks the same things Everybody's the same Everyone that is 'cept for...

Skeletal Lamping Dig
Does she know, does she know that I am not just searching for some first-time high? I know it's all about perceptions And I accept you as my very first mover I remember riding bikes on Coaster Island Planning midnight raids on the Swedish plum trees That summer, it was too cold to swim, so We climbed upon the rocky shore and freaked out On the mountain goats, but they were not impressed Or sca...
Turning tricks on the hood of Jasmine's car That whole summer was really just too peculiar You know I would have given it up to almost anybody Who had a little bit of money and was sweet to me Yeah, I was down to give it up to almost anyone Who was sweet to me It was rough, we had to crawl down to the basement For to hide from this digital wolf He had no eyes but he could see using electric ra...
You only like him 'cause he's s**ually appealing But I read his journal, it was very revealing He f***ed your sister in an elevator junior year, oh yeah, oh yeah And let your brother suck him but then beat him So he could prove he wasn't queer, oh no So what do you think he has in store for you, my dear?

Boy, I wish you weren't such a paranoid actress And I, the assassinated Kennedy I feel like an accidental species Some mutant love child, never meant to be No motion dancing, feel like we're an impossibility Tried to keep the heart in the head But I was so down on the closing night Couldn't even fake a smile Wanted to fire all my friends and just start over again And sisters, don't you know ou...

Why am I so damaged, girl? Why am I such poison, girl? I don't know how long I can hold on If it's gonna be like this forever Why am I so damaged? Why am I so troubled, girl? I don't know how long I can hold on If it's gonna be like this forever
She's saying we wear the party All over our bodies and faces What allows me to speak in wild abstractions The senseless killings gifts God gives us Have no one to love them It's the kind of thought that kills You twice on the way down You might forget them but you're not nice They don't forget about you How they claw me in my false or foster reflection Is that my reflection in the Damascus pla...

Honeymoon in San Francisco, what a grand idea. We'll rent a room in a four-star hotel We'll spend the whole time drunk on champagne and lime We'll never feel the need to get out of bed, though on occasion we'll charter a boat sail off to a distant island Once there we'll take off our shoes and relax beneathe the sun We won't care if we lose our minds We won't care if we live or die We'll spend...

It's easy to sleep when you're dead but you're unable to touch your loved ones, give them kisses or see them smile at you It's easy to sleep when you're dead but you give up your whole life's work and you can't revers the bad things that you did While alive you still have hope that when you die you are dead and you know for sure if it's better, if it's better, if it's better I hope it's better...
Look who's talking to their shadow like one who hasn't got a friend Like somebody with a broken heart that is never gonna mend Look who's walking through the night in the rain like one who's under a spell Like somebody with alot on their mind, but no one to tell Everyone you see seems so happy and carefree They've found someone to love, but you are alone Look who's flipping through the photogr...
Miniature woodwinds whistle underwater while electric eels make the ocean warm in summer Olives that were left on the sand become bathing beach bunnies being wooed by seashells singing elegant choruses Little viola hidden in the orchestra, how I love to pretend the sounds you make are flowers that slowly encircle the band. That curl around each note that's played. The audience charmed by the f...

I've lost, and don't remember what I saw in you Your charms have become less charming Your sweetness decreases everyday My dear darling, I've forgotten what I saw in you. Now I'm lost, I don't know a gentle way to say that our life together is over and its best that you find someone new because my darling, I've forgotten what I saw in you. I seem to recall some vague memory of feeling happy, w...
Your hair is so dark, it's curls are dancing flames of black fire Allah created you just for us to admire I doubt that you're the only one like you that I'll find But for sure you're one of a very few of a kind, Yes you are Your eyes are so clear, the seem to speak to me from a gleeful world And they look link singing moons made of black pearl. I'm not saying that you're the only one like you ...

Before the laughter and the cheer Dissolves into his memory Taste of vodka on his lips And thoughts of murder and doom As her eyes appeared to bloom He wanted to touch them But was afraid she might be taken aback Then what would he say? They walked to the garden in the park When it was empty after dark Then spread out a blanket And laid down and a voice said "No one else could hear? He whisper...
Someone's in love with someone who doesn't love them back their body's like a hollow room They carry around an empty feeling wherever they go, wherever they go When one is crying over someone who doesn't even care, their body's like an empty tomb They carry around a desperate feeling where ever they go, wherever they go their in a hollow room.. A hollow room. All the devils in the world couldn...

If I faltered slightly twice singling a double or Botching a landing if that was my routine it Was Torture I know that it's not an understatement there Will be no wedding to you, I wont have Trouble understanding You're the biggest lie of all I told to myself And now we're being honest There was something in your bed while you Were sleeping there in your friend's bed Not quite the person you w...
Do you remember that one Christmas when we Didn't think we'd be together. We were almost seperated by the weather But I ran through the snow Right up to your window and smiled cause I Was so absolutely happy to be with you All our relatives were too afraid to drive Through the snow We got to spend the day alone, I swear it Was the most beautiful day I know We sat by the fire and opened the pre...
There's an echo in my body echoes slide Down the roof You looked like heaven in bloom, I might now Look deep in those eyes Whose kindness moves my Texas to Oklahoma Drops of light on the bed rolling off into a Puddle on the floor You unbuttoned your life And let me go My eyes are as brown as blueberries love Must put a mountain outside every window I was crying my eyes out everything I drank t...

Now a man loving a woman that's a very Common thing common but beautiful all the same Still there's something so neat something so Extraordinarily sweet with a man who's in love With a man I have nothing to say about the traditional ways They're fine if they work well for you But there is something so right so completely Out of sight With a man who's in love with a man Or a woman who's in love...
Just before the afternoon creeps in Just before it gets too hot to be outside I like to lay on my back in the grass and watch the airplanes go by and I dream that you are an airplane shooting across the sky You are an airplane You're a strong and dangerous machine When you fall you'll fall down so fast When you crash I want to go down with you We'll make such a horrible mess Just before the fl...

The crowd gathers the rain The crowd gathers inside the rain The sky is green Greener than a gardener's dream The grass is green Together they sing Gaily gaily glee gaily glee gaily gaily glee Green glass fish glide cream colored glass Umi ni ukande means floating on the sea Me and my pussycat floating on the sea There are blackbirds in rows behind the clouds Pecking at the clouds Poking holes...
I heard a human voice in an adding machine and my brain slipped out of my ear Which made it hard to hear A customer clapping in approval A bird flew through the window And he sucked it right into his mouth I looked on the floor and saw The carpet was turning to glass I lifted my feet very fast and ran out the door I walked to a bus stop there I waited the bus And when it finally arrived I clim...
You should stay away from roses And be careful to avoid chocolate hearts Keep distant from romantic notions Cause that's where love most often starts Be sure to steer clear of diamonds And mink coats are most certainly out too For if she goes in for that kind of thing Just might fall then what you will do You know you've always been the sort Who's truly only fond of the sport And who will neve...
She's not quite like the conventional sister no she's not I've never seen her frown or hold her head down I've never heard her say "I'm bored" or "get away" I tip top topple over for my fun loving nun Cause she has so much fun has so much joy And so much wonderful love for everyone She's not like an ordinary person no she's not She turns a lonely room into a happy place Transforms a grumpy loo...
I'd be a yellow feathered loon for you baby Be a German shepherd on the moon for you baby Be a granulated spoon for you baby I'd be a camper in a photograph for you Then when the sun has set romantic times have passed And our conversations are a bore I'll become a different man So you can get to know me again I'd be a rubberbanded flute for you baby Be an union parachute for you baby Be a baby...

Nickee Coco woke up early one Tuesday morning and decided to go for a walk in the tomato field behind her house. As she was walking along she saw a magnificently tall invisible tree and decided to climb up on it. She found the foliage covered branches so comfortable that she fell fast asleep.
