Poor thing
Poor thing
Do you have sister?

Would you lay
Your body
Down in the tracks
For her?

Stab one
Tip toe in hell
...for her

Don't you have someone you'd die for?
Don't you have someone you'd die for?
Don't you have someone...you'd die for?

Don't you have someone you'd die for?
Don't you have someone you'd die for?

please, I said to God
it's only fair.
Instead he sent three angels to move the river.
So now it flows by my house.
So now it goes by my house.

I'd still rather have the man.

I've had bad dreams.
So bad I threw my pillow away.
Move the river.
So now it flows by my house.
So now it goes by my house.

I'd still rather have a man.

Baby's playing dead in cellar
Gave her water just got paler
Grass stains back burns
She's a screamer
She's just dusted, leave her

If you see her, don't upset her
Never seems to get much better
Grass stains back burns
She's a screamer
She's just dusted, leave her

Her hmm, hmm, goes to your heart
Her hmm, hmm sticks in your head
Her hmm, hmm, hmm, hmmm

Baby's playing dead in cellar
Gave her water
Just got paler
Grass stains, back burns
She's a screamer
She's just dusted, leave her

so you go, to leave, more room for me.
oh, oh, oh, you gave me too much room.
so i filled it up with chairs
you can't sit on.
but if you want to stand there, stand there

oh, oh, oh you told me too much,
you thought i would hear.

i heard every word.
i heard every word.
i heard every word.

so you go, and it all goes darker.
like these chairs, these eyes, this room closes windows.
these chairs, these eyes, this room, this heart.

i heard every word.
i heard every word.
i heard every word.

You're not safe
In this house
You're not safe

Here, here
In some witch's bed
In some witch's bed

You know the one
She lies all lit up
She lies all lit up
She lies all lit up

You're not safe
In this house

Leave him by the road
'Cause the dog won't run it
Picking through spit out leaves the dog won't even touch
Meant to shoot that dog long ago
Just can't leave that dog alone

Maria, carry a rifle
Maria, carry a dog on her back
That dog is hit again
That slow dog is hit again
With his see-through skin
The kind of skin you can see through
He's shot again
He's shot again

Heal me by a river
Man retires his wife, says:
But she was so sad and sick
His heart breaks in the mud

Thought I'd leave this world by twenty-one
Couldn't leave that dog alone

Maria, carry a rifle
Maria, carry a dog on her back
That dog is hit again
That slow dog is hit again
With his see-through skin
He's shot again
He's shot again
He's shot again

so, what, you think this is usual?
strange moon
strange land
strange man

hold your hands, your tiny horses
hold them hold them kindly

low, red moon
how can you sleep like a baby?
sleep like a baby?

when you shine so different on another,
you shine different on another

i look up and i see the raising of an old hope
brave and tatterred
a shining night with shining eyes he shines around me brightly

so, now, i say this beautiful
i think you are strange

low, red moon
how can you sleep like a baby?
sleep like a baby?
when you shine so different on another
you shine different on another

strange moon
strange land
strange man

moon you made me cry when i was young
and i was young
now i've got strong arms
strong arms for a skinny girl
and i say
he belongs to me
he belongs to me

he's a human bed of roses

This old man I've talked about
Broke his own heart
Poured it in the ground
Big red tree grew up and out
Throws up its leaves
And spins round and round

I know all this and more
So take your hat off
When you're talkin' to me
And be there when
I feed the tree

This little squirrel I used to be
Slammed her bike down the stairs
They put silver where her teeth had been
Baby silver tooth, she grins and wins

I know all this and more
So take your hat off
When you're talkin' to me
And be there when
I feed the tree

This old man I used to be
Spins around, around
Around the tree
Silver baby, come to me
I'll only hurt you
In my dreams

I know all this and more
So take your hat off boy
When you're talkin' to me
And be there when
I feed the tree

Sleep in now, now
Sleep in now, now, now
It's still night out, sleep in

Don't look at me looking back at you
Out the window backwards
Out the window backwards

Sleep

See this child twice stolen from me
Out the window backwards
Out the window backwards

Sleep in now, now
Sleep in now, now, now
Sleep now

Now fall to the bed
Put your hand in your hair
Now fall to the tile
Stick your finger in your eye
That's the only way you cry

Hey now, hey now
Full moon pass the window sideways
Hey now, hey now

Sleep in now, now
Sleep in now, now
Sleep in now, now

Sleep, sleep, sleep

That was some hurricane
Rode in on the back of a heart attack
Made a mistake...on a fire escape
In San Fransisco
Worked my way back...in a hallway
In LA

Put on your black dress
Float on your back
Too Long, Too Late
Now I'm gone

Somewhere to sleep
Somewhere to sleep
Somewhere to scrape your body off my feet

Put on your black dress
Float on your back
Too Long, Too late
Now I'm gone

White bellied up in the sun
...bellied up in the sun

Still diving...for the big one

Put on your black dress
Float on your back
Put on your black dress
(white bellied up in the sun)
Float on your back
(bellied up in the sun)

Too long, too late
Now I'm gone

White Bellied up in the sun
.....bellied up in the sun
White Bellied up in the sun
...bellied up in the sun

*ahem*
"ow"

I was friendly with this girl
Who insisted on touching my face
She told outragious stories
I believed them
Till the endings were changing from endings before
She's not touching me anymore

Untogether
I couldn't help her
I got hard
You can try your life
You can't save the unsavably untogether

I was shipwrecked with this frog
Who was endlessly testing my faith
He made out outragious demands
I ignored him
Till I stepped on my boat
Freedom surfed into shore
He's not touching me anymore

Untogether
I couldn't help him
I got hard
You can try your life
You can't change the unchangably untogether

Now the birdnest keeps me turning and straining to see
We threw outragious parties
We were golden
Now the bird keeps her distance
And I keep my space
Sometimes there's no poison, like a dream

Untogether
I couldn't help her
It got hard
You can dry your eyes
You can't hold the unpossibly untogether

It's hard for a star

Sweet, sweet, sweet wind
Burn off this skin
Get it to reach Sachuest beach
I can never win
With this body I live in

I'm so tipsy I can't seem to walk
And you take me firmly by the hand in the dark
And those cheekbones of yours shine in the dark
I swear they do

Think about dixie, she ducked when she ran
Made up three bad reasons to stand by her man
(He goes) Miss the vein once
Try, try again
I swear

(I just went)
My, my your dress says so sad
So sad
You don't care you just stole it somewhere

Feel it, fight it
Sleep inside it
Your dress says so sad
So sad
You don't care you just stole it somewhere

I'd chew my foot off
I'd chew my foot off
To get out of this dress

Stay
Oh Stay
Stay
Oh Stay

Solomon dives for that big dusty gold
Solomon sighs
He knows he's older than me
Sleeps with the fishes soon

Stay (stay)
Oh Stay
Stay (stay)
Oh Stay

Solomon crawls on the belly of God
Solomon falls on his face, in love with me
He grows as old as the sea
Deep where the fishes are

Stay
Oh Stay
Stay
Oh Stay
Stay
Oh Stay
Stay
Oh Stay

He lives in the yard
He keeps himself hard
He keeps himself homeless and heartless and hard

He sleeps under stairs
Along with the years
Of nothing and Nothing
Means no one who cares

But I love him dear
And I love him dear
And I've loved him hundreds of thousands of years

Stay
Stay (stay)
Oh Stay (Stay with me)
Stay (stay...)
Oh Stay (Stay with me)

It's not time
For me
To go
It's not time
For me
To go
It's not time
For me
To go

Stay
