Bliss
Father, I killed my monkey
I let it out to
taste the sweet of spring
wonder if I will wander out
test my tether to
see if I'm still free
from you
steady as it comes
right down
to you
I've said it all
so maybe we're a Bliss
of another kind
lately, I'm into circuitry
what it means to be
made of you but not enough for you
and I wonder if
you can bilocate is that
what I taste
your supernova juice
you know it's true I'm part of you
steady as it comes
right down to you
I've said it all
so maybe you're a 4 horse engine
with a power drive
a hot kachina who wants into mine
take it with your terracide
we're a Bliss
of another kind
Glory Of the 80's
I took a taxi from LA to Venus
in 1985 I was electromagnetically sucked
back into a party going on that night
It was the glory of the 80's
with karma drawn up in lines
and two bugle boy models saying, 'baby,
it's free-bee you sure look deprived'
I had the Story of O in my bucket seat
of my wanna be Mustang
auditioning for reptiles in their
Raquel Welsh campaign
in the glories of the 80's
you said, "I'm not afraid to die"
I said I don't find that remotely
funny even on this space cake high
and then when it all seemed clear
just then you go and disappear
silicone party barbies to the left and
Joan of Arcs to the right
no one feeling insecure we were
all gorge and famous in our last lives
in the glories of the 80's you said
'the end is nothing to fear' I said
- blow the end - nowbaby
who do I gotta shag to get outta here
and then when it all seemed clear
just then you go and disappear
sure you're out there orbiting around
wish I had you back now
I met a drag king call venus
she had a velvet hologram she said
'my husband ran off with my
shaman but they love me as I am'
in the glories of the 80's
I may not have to die
I'll clone myself
like that blonde chick
that sings Betty Davis Eyes
and then when it all seemed clear
just then you go
and
disappear
Suede
suede. you always felt like suede. there are days I feel your twin.
peekaboo. hiding underneath your skin. jets. are revving yes revving
from a central source and this. has power over me. not because you feel
something or don't feel something for me but because. mass. so big. it can swallow swallow her whole star intact. call me 'evil' call me 'tide is on
your side' anything that you want. anybody knows you can conjure
anything by the dark of the moon. boy. and if you keep your silence
silencer on you'll talk yourself right into a job. out of a hole. into my
bayou. i'm sure that you've been briefed my absorbtion lines. they are frayed
and I fear. my fear is greater than my faith but I walk. the missionary way.
you always felt like suede. there are days I am your twin. peekaboo.
hiding underneath your skin. jets. are revving yes revving from an ether
twist. call me 'evil'. call me 'tide is on
your side' anything that you want. anybody knows you can conjure
anything by the dark of the moon. boy. and if you keep your silence
silencer on you'll talk yourself right into a job. out of a hole. into my
bayou.
into my, my bayou.
suede.
oh little sister, I hope you didn't feel that way
oh little sister, I'm glad you came, and I said
oh little sister, I hoped you wouldn't feel that way
oh little sister, oh again, and I said
oh little sister, I hope you didn't feel that way
oh little sister, I'm still glad you came, I said
oh little sister, I wish you didn't feel that way, and
oh little sister, said, I'd do the same, do the same
oh little sister, I hoped you wouldn't feel that way
oh, I said, I wish
oh little sister, can you forgive me one day
can you forgive me
suede.
Riot Proof
you know what you know so you go break the terror
of the urban spell
this alliance you say 'I'm on the threshold of greatness girl'
so you burn your pagoda through the congo till there's a broken bond
on the birth of the search white trash my native son
it will all find its way in time
blossom, riot poof
you know what you know so you go chain her to your flow
she bites through your dried lean meat as she's
going to the movie show
in a bath of glitter and a tiny shiver she crawls through your java sea
black sahara I'm stepping in to your space oddity
it will all find its way in time
blossom, riot poof
the sun is warming my man is moistening
on the bomb on the bond on the bomb
Spring Haze
well I know it's just a spring haze
but I don't much like the look of it
and if omens are a god send like men
breezing in
certain these clouds go somewhere
billowing out to somewhere
in a single engine cessna
you say we'll never make it there
so all we do is circle it
uh oh. let go. off on my way
unseen this eternal wanting
let go. way to go so I get creamed
waiting on Sunday to drown
waiting on sunday to drown
so I know it's just a spring haze
but I don't much like the look of it
but all we do is circle it
and I found out where my edge is
and it bleeds into where you resist
and my only way out is to go
so far in
billowing out to somewhere
billowing out luna riviera
billowing out to somewhere
uh oh. let go. off on my way
unseen this eternal wanting
let go. so far. really getting creamed
waiting on sunday to land
why. does. it. always end up like this
waiting on Sunday so I get creamed
waiting for Sunday to drown
One more...I just couldn't leave this one out..and I didn't want to leave any of the others off...so...last one...
1000 Oceans
these tears I've cried. I've cried 1000 oceans
and if it seems I'm. floating. in the darkness
well, I can't believe that I would keep. keep you from flying.
and I would cry 1000 more if that's what it takes
to sail you home
sail you home. sail you home.
I'm aware what the rules are. but you know that I
will run. you know that I will follow you.
over silbury hill through the solar field. you know that I will follow you
and if i find you. will you. still remember
playing at the trains. or does this little blue ball
just fade away. over silbury hill through the solar field.
you know that I will follow you.
I'm aware what the rules are but you know that I
will run. you know that I will follow you.
these tears I've cried. I've cried. 1000 oceans
and if it seems I'm. floating. in the darkness
well, I can't believe that I would keep. keep you from flying.
so I will cry 1000 more if that's what it takes
to sail you home.
sail you home. sail you home. sail. sail you home
