Flying out to Japan
To buy a picture of a rotting hand
Unaware of the things around me
Even knives in my back
I've been working as an art dealer
Finishing last in life
Unaware of the things around me
Even knives in my back
Timber, fire! Shoes hanging from the wire
Timber, fire! Shoes hanging from the wire
Hoping that I can make it
Living in a cocoon of horror
Unaware of the things around me
Even knives in my back
Timber, fire! Shoes hanging from the wire
Timber, fire! Shoes hanging from the wire
Flying out from Japan
I got my picture of a rotting hand
Now I'm aware of the things around me
I pulled the knives from my back

Odd Endeavor
02:46

Here we go over the hill
Down to the very end
What would you give?
To do it all over again?
You're on an odd endeavor tonight
You're on an odd endeavor it's alright
Chasing down a NuGrape sun
Sugar in the water, a flare gun
Now just think what you could have given
Had you decided to keep living
The stars will line up
When you prove that you're tough
You want your heart to go quiet
No one's gonna buy it

I'll Be Blunt
03:22

Taxidermy has got me worried
Taxidermy
Standing hairs and folding chairs
Got me unaware
Grabbing hard, grab at nothing
You have nothing
Lifting hands
Final plans
Rip 'em up
Your soul explodes in the hot night
You're chained to the lamp, you're chained to the light
And you won't make your mind up
Without any insight
Taxidermy in mystic blue
Taxidermy
Stiff penalties and government sleaze
I'll be blunt: Kill me now
Spring into Hell
Lifting hands, lifting hearts
Rip 'em up

Visiting the salt mines behind the vision
Briny eyes from a bad decision
Too much time, bring out the dead
Sleeping in a coffin located in my head
And all the mopes say
"Ain't you got anything? Anything for me?"
And all the dopes say
"Ain't you got anything? Anything for free?"
Watching "The Beyond', sweating in my bed
The nails turn red, they turn red inside my head
Trying to relive the smells of the 70's
Reminisce the poison of ancient tragedies
You brine the chicken in the bowl
You lose connection to your soul
You brine the chicken in the bowl
You look out the window and see how the world falls
You lost your balls
Visiting the salt mines behind the vision
Briny eyes from a bad decision
Watching "The Beyond', sweating in my bed
The nails turn red, they turn red inside my head
You brine the chicken in the bowl
You lose connection to your soul
You brine the chicken in the bowl
You look out the window and see how the world cuts
You lost your guts

Silver Lined Eyes

Silver Lined eyes
Are you to be forgiven?
I've already forgiven you
For what you did to me
It should come as no surprise
I lied right to your eyes
And you absorbed the fear
That echoed from me
Silver lined eyes
Your thoughts are all messed
Ruminating like space junk
That echoes off to sleep
Silver lined eyes
It's beat or be beaten
And there's a snake in Eden
That you just cannot defend
Silver lined eyes
Your thoughts are all messed
Ruminating like space junk
That echoes off to sleep
Silver lined eyes
Am I to be forgiven
You've already forgiven me
For what I did to you
A vision of love
For your silver lined eyes
You absorb the fear
that echoed from me
Silver lined eyes
Your thoughts are all messed
Ruminating like space junk
That echoes off to sleep
Silver lined eyes
It's beat or be beaten
And there's a snake in Eden
That you just cannot defend
Silver lined eyes
Your thoughts are all messed
Ruminating like space junk
That echoes off to sleep

Rubble
02:34
|

Look at that tile
Color immersion
Write it down in third person
Look at that rubble
They're going to take that rubble away
I've seen a spaceship
Over the barn
Write it down
Do no harm
Look at that rubble
They're going to take my rubble away
Teenage love
Municipal waste
Rubber glove
In your face
Get on your black getup
You think I'm a person
Keep dragging me down
Humiliation
Look at that rubble
They're going to take my rubble away
Teenage love
Municipal waste
Rubber glove
In your face

Put your toe into the water
It runs hot then cold
Don't you ever wonder
What it's like to grow old
He was the talk of the town
Until his smile turned brown
That's when he went into hiding
That's when people started dying
That's how it goes. When your time is up
They guilted him into revealing himself
Gutted him into a bucket of lies
He was such a nice guy
and that's why he had to die
Put your toe into the water
It runs hot then cold
Don't you ever wonder what it's like to grow old

The big valley
A plaid sofa
Eyeballs have melted
And the men are so violent
Alone in my room, it's cold in my room
Mushrooms, poisonous mushrooms
I can see their sweaty faces
There's fire on the plains
Stick a pencil in
and the tv speaker it blows again
Alone in my room, it's cold in my room
Mushrooms, poisonous mushrooms
TV tubes hum
It's so quiet now
Eyeballs have melted
On a plaid couch
Alone in my room, it's cold in my room
Mushrooms, poisonous mushrooms
Mushrooms!
Lorne Green's jeans
See through the chuckwagon screen
There's a platinum blonde
And the plains are on fire!
Alone in my room, it's cold in my room
Mushrooms, poisonous mushrooms

Reflected on the water
Down on the coast
Sun gets in the eyes
Looking at the boats
Thatched roof cabanas
Playing in the sand
Does anybody remember when the time was at hand?
Time to go
Clumps of sand spurs
Fireworks in the sky
The smoke gets in the eyes
Smoke in the night
Hot vinyl sticking to your legs
Station wagon dream dissolves in the steam
Missing from today, it's all gone away
Your salt water tears fell into a million beers
Step into the heat
Crossing the street
Run to the beach
Smash a castle
Reflected on the water
carve a name in the sand
Does anybody remember when the time was at hand?
Time to go
Hot vinyl sticking to your legs
Station wagon dream dissolves in the steam
Cracked driveway, cracked psyche
A flame in the sky and there's burnout behind the eyes
Time is crawling, time is creeping on
