For the longest time this band confused me. There's just too many rumors about them. However, when I saw a picture of them in Spin magazine with a monkey..all made sense.

Apple Blosson

De Stijl

hey little apple blossom
what seems to be the problem
all the ones you tell your troubles to
they don't really care for you

come and tell me what you're thinking
cause just when the boat is sinking
a little light is blinking
and i will come and rescue you

lots of girls walk around in tears
but that's not for you
you've been looking all around for years
for someone to tell your troubles to

come and sit with me and talk awhile
let me see your pretty little smile
put your troubles in a little pile
and i will sort them out for you
i'll fall in love with you
i think i'll marry you

Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground

White Blood Cells

Dead leaves and the dirty ground
when I know you're not around
shiny tops and soda pops
when I hear your lips make a sound

Thirty notes in the mailbox
will tell you that I'm coming home
and I think I'm gonna stick around
for a while so you're not alone

If you can hear a piano fall
you can hear me coming down the hall
if I could just hear your pretty voice
I don't think I need to see at all

Soft hair and a velvet tongue
I want to give you what you give to me
and every breath that is in your lungs
is a tiny little gift to me

I didn't feel so bad till the sun went down
then I come home
no one to wrap my arms around

Well any man with a microphone
can tell you what he loves the most
and you know why you love at all
if you're thinking of the holy ghost

Hotel Yorba

White Blood Cells

I was watching
with one eye on the other side
I had fifteen people telling me to move
I got moving on my mind
I found shelter
In some thoughts turning wheels around
I said 39 times that I love you
to the beauty I had found

Well its 1 2 3 4
take the elevator
at the hotel yorba
I'll be glad to see you later
all they got inside is vacancy

I been thinking
of a little place down by the lake
they got a dirty little road leading up to the house
I wonder how long it will take till we're alone
sitting on the front porch of that home
stomping our feet on the wooden boards
never gonna worry about locking the door

well it's 1 2 3 4
grab your umbrella
grab hold of me
cause I'm your favourite fella
all they got inside is vacancy

It might seem silly
for me to think childish thoughts like these
but i'm so tired of acting tough
and i'm gonna to what i please
lets get married
in a big cathedral by a priest
cause if i'm the man that you love the most
you could say i do at least

well it's 1 2 3 4
grab your umbrella
grab hold of me
cause I'm your favourite fella
all they got inside is vacancy

and it's 4 5 6 7
grab your umbrella
grab hold of me
cause I'm your favourite fella
all they got inside is vacancy

Eye candy..ok, that's cheesy
