About A Girl


(VERSE 1)
I need an easy friend
I do... with an ear to lend
I do... think you fit this shoe
I do... but you have a clue

(CHORUS)
I 'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night for free

I 'm standing in your line
I do... hope you have the time
I do... pick a number too
I do... keep a date with you

CHORUS

SOLO

VERSE 1

CHORUS

Oh, I can't see you every night...for free
I do...(4x)

Come As You Are


Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, as an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up
Choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend, as an old memoria
Memoria (4x)

Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria
Memoria (4x)

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun (2x)

SOLO

Memoria (4x)

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun (4x)

Memoria (2x)

Jesus Doesn't Want Me For A Sunbeam


Jesus , Don 't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me

Don 't expect me to cry,
For all the reasons you had to die
Don 't ever ask your love of me

Don 't expect me to cry
Don 't expect me to lie
Don 't expect me to die for me

Jesus , Don 't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me

Don 't expect me to cry,
For all the reasons you had to die
Don 't ever ask your love of me

(x2)
Don 't expect me to cry
Don 't expect me to lie
Don 't expect me to die for me
Don 't expect me to die for me
Jesus , Don 't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me

Don 't expect me to cry,
For all the reasons you had to die
Don 't ever ask your love of me

Don 't expect me to cry
Don 't expect me to lie
Don 't expect me to die
Don 't expect me to cry
Don 't expect me to lie
Don 't expect me to die for me

The Man Who Sold The World


We passed upon the stair
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long long time ago

Oh no, Not Me
We never lost control
You 're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World

I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land (Alt: I searched for foreign land)
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
At all the millions here (Alt 1: We walked a million years)(Alt 2: With multimillionaires)(Alt 3: We walked a million hills)
I must have died alone (Alt: I must have died along)
A long, long time ago

(x2)
Who knows?
Not me
We never lost control
You 're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World

Pennyroyal Tea


I 'm on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture

(CHORUS 1)
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I 'm anemic royalty

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh enternally

I 'm so tired I can't sleep
I 'm a liar and a thief
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I 'm anemic royalty

SOLO

I 'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids

CHORUS 1

Uhh...(7x)

Dumb


(VERSE 1)
I 'm not like them
But I can pretend
the sun Is gone
But I have a light
the Day Is done
But I 'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Or maybe just happy

(CHORUS 1)
think I 'm just happy(3x)

My heart Is broke
But I have some glue
help me inhale
And mend it with you
we 'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And I have a hangover

Have a hangover(3x)

Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
the soul Is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up

VERSE 1

CHORUS 1

I think I'm dumb(12x)

Polly


Polly wants a cracker
Think I should get off her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch
(CHORUS)
Isn 't me
Have a seed
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don 't hurt yourself
Want some help
To please myself
Got some rope
Have been told
Promise you
Have been true
Let me take a ride
Don 't hurt yourself
Want some help
To please myself

Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untire her
A chase would be nice for a few

CHORUS

Polly says her back hurts
She 's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
It amazes me the will of instinct

On A Plain


I 'll start this off without any words
I got so high, I scratched 'til I bled
Love myself better then you
I know it's wrong so what should I do
The finest day that I ever had
Was when I learned to cry on command
Love myself better then you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

(CHORUS)
I 'm on a plain
I can 't complain
I 'm on a plain

My mother died every night
it 's safe to say don't quote me on that
Love myself better then you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

The black sheep got blackmailed again
Forgot to put on the zip code
Love myself better then you
I know it's wrong so what should I do

Something In The Way


(VERSE)
Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And I'm drippings from the ceiling
It 's ok to eat fish
Cause they don't have any feelings
(CHORUS)
Something in the way
Something in the way, yeah(3x)

Plateau


Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands

The nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words

When You 've finished with the mop then you can stop
And look at what you've done
the plateau 's clean, no dirt to be seen
And the work it was fun

There 's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words

Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau
Some said it was in Greenland and some say Mexico
Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood
But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could

Oh Me

If I had to lose a mile
If I had to touch feelings
I would lose my soul
The way I do

I don 't have to think
I only have to do it
The results are always perfect
And that's old news

Would you like to hear my voice
Sprinkled with emotion
Invented at your birth?

I can 't see the end of me
My whole expanse I cannot see
I formulate infinity
Stored deep inside me

If I had to lose a mile
If I had to touch feelings
I would lose my soul
The way I do

I don 't have to think
I only have to do it
The results are always perfect
And that's old news

Would you like to hear my voice
Sprinkled with emotion
Invented at your birth?

I can 't see the end of me
My whole expanse I cannot see

(x2)
I formulate infinity
Stored deep inside me

Lake of Fire


Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don 't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go to the lake of fire and fry
Won 't see them again 'till the fourth of July

I knew a lady who came from Duluth
She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth
She went to her grave just a little too soon
And she flew away howling on the yellow moon

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don 't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
Won 't see them again 'till the fourth of July

Now the people cry and the people moan
And they look for a dry place to call their home
And try to find some place to rest their bones
While the angels and the devils try to make them their own

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don 't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
Won 't see them again 'till the fourth of July

All Apologies


What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don 't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies

(CHORUS)
In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
I 'm married
Buried

I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I 'll take all the blame
Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezerburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy

CHORUS

Married
Buried

Yeah(4x)

All in all we all are(20x)

Where Did You Sleep Last Night


My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, where will you go
I 'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

Her husband, was a hard working man
Just about a mile from here
His head was found in a driving wheel
But his body never was found

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, where will you go
I 'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

My girl, my girl, where will you go
I 'm going where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
