she feels like a stranger has come in the night and stolen her life and left her with this and boughs break on ebony toothaches
she is a flask trapped inside a fall
i know you need to find what you thought you left behind in a past life
i won't question why the only light that you have you give away
i know you need to find what you thought you left behind in a past life
i won't question why the only light that you have you give away
she feels like a stranger has come in the night and stolen her life and left her with this

all i want to be is a shovely bubbly gobbly gook
a seagull stole him from his slow mama's hands aboard the boat the sweet louisa
and dropped him in the meadow-lands where wild hyenas taught him how to hunt old elephants
so he spent his formative years eating out badunkadunk
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
he travelled across the sea in the belly of a japanese businessman on a pleasure ship to france
and he don't know why she loves him
and he don't know why the sun sets but fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
fee fi fo fum i smell the blood of an englishman
bang pow pow pow ahhhhhh
and her father hated him with the passion of a dying chinaman
he said get him out of here or i'm gonna bite of his face
no daddy daddy don't daddy daddy
get the fuck out of my house
no daddy daddy don't daddy daddy
this is my house my house

please don't go and build a fence around your heart
like you've done before
when you're losing ground
i know i can't wait
i don't even have the strength to begin to imitate the dying little bird you've saved when the night breaks
and the clouds shake
and your hopes ache to someday be redeemed
please don't go and build a fence around your heart
like you've done before when your losing grace
and i know i can't wait
i don't even have the strength to begin to imitate the dying little bird you've saved when the night breaks
and the clouds shake
and your hopes ache to someday be redeemed
her face is a curtain of this truth i'm certain i know i know i know
so please don't go and build a fence around your heart like you've done before when you're losing ground
i know i can't wait
i don't even have the strength to begin to imitate the dying little bird you've saved

will we ever find the one that we were meant to love like we want to be loved
take this flight into the sun
or did they die in a dry hump fire years before we were born
when all the hogs devoured the dogs like lightening after the storm
and her lips were wet like a rose with summer sweat
and when our eyes met i knew i was through
tiptoes on cobblestones in glass stilettos it breaks my knees when she hides her nosebleeds in my dreams as i sleep
and i know i'll never be the man that she thinks she really needs
but it don't stop me from trying to be
and i scream ice-cream
goddamn you miette goddamn
i let down my guard and lifted this heart so now it can break again
goddamn you miette goddamn
i let down my guard and there goes this heart straight out the window again goddamn goddamn goddamn godbless

the sky is falling like a
sock of cocaine in the
ministry of information
subway train's derailing
heads decapitating
catch her reflection and it seems to sing to me
and i say lalalala lalalala lalalala lalalalala
lalalala lalalala lalalala lalalalala
she's a warm bodega
high on noreaga
strung out in brooklyn like it's 1983
she wears her legs around her
neck like a piece of ice
her smile's a neon marque hipsters eat for free
and i say lalalala lalalala lalalala lalalalala
lalalala lalalala lalalala lalalalala
i am falling like a
sock of cocaine in the
ministry of information
i'm a warm bodega
high on noreaga
strung out in brooklyn cause i fell in love with her
and i say lalalala lalalala lalalala lalalalala
lalalala lalalala lalalala lalalalala
moon cut moon cuts tiny like eyelash
lonely cat nap whisper lonely cat nap whisper
moon cut moon cuts tiny like eyelash
lonely cat nap whisper lonely cat nap whisper
and i walk around i whisper in her scalp
i whisper on the wind i whisper once again

don't beat around the black jack night
don't beat around the black jack night

(my brain hurts, you're own your own from here)
Black Jack Night x 8
(My maid works faster than yours.)
(My face looks better than yours.)
(My feet beat louder than yours.)
(My grandmas better than yours.)
Mustache, Mustache, Mustache, Mustache, Mustache. x 4
The Gun is not my Son x 8
And get around the Black Jack Night
I wanna slay my mustache right.
I wanna see my hand in knife.
I don't wanna be the Son ____ ?

Say goodnight to those bittersweet days
When you could tell someone that you loved 'em
And you wouldnt lose your shame.
And now you gotta bite your tongue
And feel the cold blood running down your face.
Spider Cider (x4)
You drink yourself sideways to try to remain.
For a turn at birth you unearth
The beast you'll never tame.
And now you've found someone to hold
Who's gonna leave you empty and alone.
Spider Cider (x4)
But you've got the fever, girl,
And I've got the fever.
We've got the fever, girl,
Now we're cursed to the bone.
Spider Cider (x4)
You should always run
With a loaded fun in your mouth (repeat)
_____ on peoples' face,
Break bottles. That's your way.
Tell the black widow spider on the _______
I love her, I'll die for you.
When the cops come around you,
First you need to wear 'em down.
Well I will die, I will die, I will die,
I will die in the ____ for you.
You should always run
With a loaded gun in your mouth.
Kiss on the lips.
Oh, these cold, chaotic times!
You cannot run the holy war
So what's the use of trying?
And all the world goes to shit.
You've already lived with years and years of it.
Spider Cider (x4)
You've got the fever, girl
And I've got the fever.
We've got the fever, girl,
Now we're cursed to the bone.

only time will tell if I'll allow
the scenery around to eat me alive
I want to sleep for weeks like a dog at her feet
even though I know it won't work out in the long run
so I burn down the wall, breathe my good shadow
those arms I once knew, hold me like gold
I learn how to speak a forgotten language
I fall in the sea but forget how to swim
When anything that's anything becomes nothing that's everything
and nothing is the only thing you ever seem to have
but only time will tell if I'll allow
the scenery around to eat me alive
I want to sleep for weeks like a dog at her feet
even though I know it won't work out in the long run
so I burn down the bone, breathe my good shadow
those arms I once knew, hold me like gold
I learn how to speak a defeated language
I fall in the street as I howl at the moon
When anything that's anything becomes nothing that's everything
and nothing is the only thing you ever seem to have

Girlfriend, I know
I can smell your blood
you're gonna do bad things tonight
Crawl back to the cave
Crawl back to the cave
Hide in the dark
and I've carved out his heart
and I wear it 'round my head like a name of pride
Crawl back to the cave
Crawl back to the cave
Girlfriend, I know
I can smell your blood
you're gonna be a filthy beast tonight
Crawl back to the cave
Crawl back to the cave
Hide in the dark
and I'll stab her in his heart
and I'll tunnel through his chest 'til I see the light
Crawl back to the cave
Crawl back to the...
When I punch [???] I black out!
When I feel the tease I black out!
When I [???] I black out!
Thank god [???] black out!
Lady, we will pray on your grave
Lady, we will pray on your grave
Lady, we will pray on your grave
Lady, we will pray on your grave

am i supposed to close my eyes as you walk away from me
am i supposed to blind myself so i'll never have to see
you walking side by side with a different kind of man
who'll redefine your body in ways i know i...
what if i don't want to go now
will you come and put these eyes out for me...
so don't go and blame your mother for what's your father's fault
or all of your daughters will turn out just like you
bent on destruction and burning through their beauty
and looking beyond their years by the time they're only (twenty)...
and what if i don't want to go now
will you come put these eyes out for me...
oh c'est la vie please don't go and abandon me
when the bridge burns down and the bad blood tastes like wine on the wind
and they c'est beware of the man in shades
beware beware of the man in shades beware
i stutter step my way across desert lakes to try and sweat the ghost of the past and lay my anchor at last at your feet
as they c'est beware of the man in shades
beware beware of the man in shades beware i am the man in shades
yes i am i am the man in shades
yes i am i am the man in shades
yes i am i am the man in shades
yes i am
