You’re simple and honest and that’s why I love you
And I know you feel the same way for me don’t you
The sum of our parts is the sum of our angles
Our symmetry makes separation so painful
Your lines are so fine you look just like a painting
I sit on the floor near the wall where you’re hanging
I study your shapes and your various poses
I stare at you until the museum closes
And when you wear my clothes when the loving is done
And walk around the house with nothing else on
They look much better on you, don’t they my love?
And no one else knows what it’s like
Yeah only we know what it’s like
You make me feel strange and you make me feel jealous
I need every bit of your love ‘cause I’m selfish
And when we’re together we mirror each other
The same on both sides when we touch one another
We’re drawn on the blackboard inside of the classroom
To prove to the class with our math what can happen
When two perfect sides come together on top of
A base representing the place where we make love
And when you say to me that you’ll leave me unless
I take you to the bedroom and help you undress
I really have no choice but to take your request
And no one else knows what it’s like
Yeah only we know what it’s like
You’re simple and honest and that’s why I love you
And I know you feel the same way for me don’t you
I look at you next to me when you are sleeping
And notice you’re so geometrically pleasing
And none of you know what it’s like
Well, some of you know what it’s like

Another Still

Lazybones get off the couch
Your house is burning down
And you’re smoking cigarettes
Please tell me the secret why
You’re laid up on the couch
Do you know or did you forget?
Lazybones get out of bed
It’s raining cats and dogs
Your clothes are soaking wet
Are you OK today or not?
I think that you mean no
Whenever you say yes
And when you think that I have had my fill
Of your secret thoughts tell me another still
And when you think that I’m sick of you being ill
Tell me another and another still
Tell me another and another still
You don’t have to spare me anything at all
And you never will
Tell me another and another still
If you don’t want me telling anyone
Then I never will
Once I knew a girl and she
Was good at Rubik’s cube
And loved Monopoly
Now that girl is only good
At sitting on the couch
And voicing complaints to me
Tell me why you never feel
Like going out with me
The way we used to do
I’m not mad and we can do
Whatever you feel like
Depending on your mood
And when you think that I have had my fill
Of your secret thoughts tell me another still
And when you think that I’m sick of you being ill
Tell me another and another still
Tell me another and another still
You don’t have to spare me anything at all
And you never will
Tell me another and another still
If you don’t want me telling anyone
Then I never will

Stations
03:26

Places places everybody
Battle stations everybody
Some of you are not prepared
To have a good time tonight
Everybody stand in place
And wait with folded arms
Places places battle stations
Ready or not…
Why won’t someone spike the punch?
All I had was gum for lunch
And all I want to do is let
The booze infect my mind
Take me to that place
Where I can live my fantasies
Places places battle stations
More punch if you please
When the power goes out
We’ll all have to shout
Because our ears are plugged into the grid
When the speakers stop workin’
Everybody stops twerkin’
And we’ll sew buttons like our grandparents did
Places places everybody
Battle stations everybody
Get yourself together
And together we can get
Just as clinically insane
As everybody wants
Move your feat to imagined beats
They kill you then they haunt

What Is This Love
04:06
|

Hello you don’t know me
But I want to get married
I know we’ll meet someday
We’ll give our kids weird names
I know it sounds cliché
To say I’ve never felt this way
Well maybe once I did
When I was still just a kid
I’ll give all my love to you
And wait for yours to come
I’ve got a lot of love to give
I hope that you’ve got some
What is this love doing to me?
I heard a rumor somewhere
That you didn’t like my kind
Now how can I compete?
Apples to oranges
Lemme tell you what this is like
Slipping on banana peels
Knotted up laces
Ass over tea kettle
If you don’t want my love at all
Just give it back to me
I gave you all the love I had
And now I need it back
What is this love doing to me?

You're driving your car
down a desolate midnight road.
Is there a body in the trunk?
Nobody knows.

ASMR girl
Whisper my name
Say something to me
I won’t understand
ASMR girl
Role play with me
Shampoo my hair yeah
And then talk me to sleep
ASMR girl
Tap fingernails
On a glass makeup bottle
My hair stands on end
Shiver me tingles
Massage my brain
All I want from you
Is to know your real name
ASMR girl
Where did you go?
Why haven’t you posted
Any new videos?
ASMR girl
Inaudible sound
Crinkle some paper
But try not to be loud

I love
Love how
How girls
Girls have

I Think I Knew
04:41
|

My nightlight soft as snow
Drive my car with my eyes closed
I knew once but I forgot
And now I can’t but thanks a bunch
Sad in bed lullaby
Blue canary softly nightlight
Start a fire in my room
You can see the flames from space
You want to know
But I can’t say
And I wouldn’t tell
Ever anyway
Now there was a thing
That I think I knew
But now I forget
So what can you do?
Nightlight glowing up on stage
Hey magician guess my age
Make the snow light disappear
Softly softly do it once more
Where’d I put my whatchacallit?
That magician stole my wallet
Start a fire with some matches
Carry it with you ‘til winter
Snow is falling only on me
Blue canary softly softly
Paper hearts from stationary
Scented and incendiary

I get no kick from Champaign
And some, they go for cocaine
But you won’t hear me complain
I just turn on other ways
This isn’t Lucy in the sky
And it’s no day in the life
There’ll be no veiled reference here
I’ll make it perfectly clear
Just one handful of pink pills
And then a new world’s revealed
Entire body goes numb
My hands become boxing gloves
I won’t remember anything
At all when I wake up
How long was I asleep?
I think I slept a week
My mouth’s too dry to speak
Describing this is hard
Hey it’s beautiful and frightening
I’m seeing things I shouldn’t see
My soul is melting
Hey I’ll thank you to not bother me
I’m high on diphenhydramine
My brain is swelling
I’ll call you one the telephone
Tomorrow and I’ll say
I love you but your sex appeal
Just fails to make me feel
As wonderfully surreal
As when I do this stuff

Emotion Vacation
03:28
|
|||
I want to feel like a rock
I want to feel like a tree
Nothing’s bothering me
Nothing’s anything me
Don’t want to be a ghost
Or a helpless baby
Please stop bothering me
Please stop everything me
You wanna go someplace
You can forget your cares?
I will make you aware
That you're already there
Now stop your sobbin’ yeah
And you can follow me
I know a place we can be
Where we can feel like a tree
Pack a bag and get into the cab
It’s an emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
Nothing hurts no more crying at work
It’s an emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
No tears today because now you’re OK
It’s an emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
Where we’ll go you don’t care you don’t know
It’s an emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
Dry your eyes ‘cause I’ve got a surprise!
It’s an emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
Lift your head and get out of your bed
It’s an emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
No more pouting it’s time for and outing
An emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
We can do anything me and you
On our emotion vacation
Emotion vacation
