Mother mother how's the family, I'm just calling to say hello
How's the weather how's my father am I lonely heavens no
Mother mother are you listening, just a phone call to ease your mind
Life is perfect never better, distance making the heart grow blind

When you sent me off to see the world, where you scared that I might get hurt
Would I try a little tobacco, would I keep on hiking up my skirt

I'm hungry
I'm dirty
I'm losing my mind
Everything's fine

I'm freezing
I'm starving
I'm bleeding to death
Everything's fine

Yeah, I'm working, making money I'm just starting to build a name
I can feel it around the corner, I could make it any day
Mother mother can you hear me, sure I'm sober sure I'm sane
Life is perfect never better, still your daughter still the same

If I tell you what you want to hear, will it help you to sleep well at night
Are you sure that I'm your perfect dear, now just cuddle up and sleep tight

I'm hungry
I'm dirty
I'm losing my mind
Everything's fine

I'm freezing
I'm starving
I'm bleeding to death
Everything's fine

I miss you
I love you

A navy bean is bigger than it seems put it on and don't ask what it means 
Parade around 
Cellophane is thicker than it seems put it on and don't ask what it means 
Parade around 
Shaving cream is thicker than it seems shave 'em off and don't ask what it
means 
Parade around 
An angel wing is caught up in the tree if you know what's best get the hell away
from me! 
Parade around 
Oh you little navy bean oh you're caught up in the tree 
Navy bean, navy bean 
Oh you little navy bean oh you're caught up in the tree 
Navy bean, navy bean, navy bean, navy bean 

Cellophane is thicker than it seems put it on and don't ask what it means 
Parade around

It makes you weak 
It makes you strong 
Been in your blood too long 
I took your nights 
You took my star 
One I wished on last year 

Tell it to the sky 
Tell it to the sky 
For no one 
So you fucked all 
All that we had 
I took the ball and ran 

It makes you weak 
It makes you strong 
Been in your blood too long 

Tell it to the sky 
Tell it to the sky 
Tell it to the sky 
For no one 
Tell it to the sky 
Tell it to the sky 
For no one 
I see you.. coming back to me 
I hear you're coming back 
To me 

Tell it to the sky..for no one

She'll suck the living down to size three 
She'll suck the living and she'll kill me 
Necks are crooked and it's time to sing 
Her beak is wide open at the sound of wings 
Oh ay 

She kisses harder than me 
She kisses harder than me 
I guess I'm not that hungry 

Veins are rivers flowing to the sea 
Fish will eat it, but don't ask me 
Angels looking make it hard to cry 
People looking make it cool to die 
Oh ay 

She kisses harder than me 
She kisses harder than me 
I guess I'm not that hungry 
She kisses harder than me 
She kisses harder than me 
I guess I'm not that hungry

Have you ever heard the sound
Of you head in the ground
And you're afraid to say
And it won't go away?

That's the sound of your brain cracking
That's the sound of your brain cracking
That's the sound of your brain cracking
That's the sound of your brain cracking

Have you ever heard the sound
Of you head on the ground
And you're afraid to say
And it won't go away?

That's the sound of your brain cracking
That's the sound of your brain cracking
That's the sound of your brain cracking
That's the sound of your brain cracking

. . .



I sleep the day away giving you all I can 
Ready to reach new lows dying to wash my hand 

You're the one, you're the one that froze the sun 
Say you love me as you pull the trigger 
Better today rather than tomorrow 

Heaven is in the air hiding behind your blinds 
Heaven is right out there leaving me here behind 

You're the one, you're the one that froze the sun 
Say you love me as you pull the trigger 
Better today rather than tomorrow 

You're the one, you're the one that froze the sun 
Say you love me as you pull the trigger 
Better today rather than tomorrow 

You, you should enjoy the weather 
Soon you'll burn with what you've done 

You'll hurt no one 
You'll hurt no one 
You'll hurt no one 

I sleep the day away giving you all I can 
Ready to reach new lows dying to wash my hand

. . .



They call you the one hit wonder 
If I could just hit you right 
Yeah right between yeah right between 
Your eyes 
If ever a girlie wonder 
Could ever be more than just 
One thing yeah more than one 
Thing at a time 

I give you my four leaf clover 
Cause God only knows that is 
The only one the only one 
Of mine 
And you'll hear it over and over 
Until it is built right in yeah right into 
Your filthy little mind 

I own the world 
I bought the whole damn world 
From the man who sold the world 
A million dollar caddy world 

So could you just bend right over? 
To see how it feels to be 
To see just how it feels 
To be alive 

And you'll get it over and over 
Cause God only knows that is 
The only one the only one 
Of mine 

I own the world 
I bought the whole damn world 
From the man who sold the world 
A million dollar cranky world

Saw a shark today
Ate a man and then just swam away
But it wasn't ok
No, it wasn't ok
Saw a snake today
Ate another snake then squirmed away
But it wasn't ok
No, it wasn't ok

But it wasn't ok
No, it wasn't ok

Met a star today
Looked like flesh and bone
And tooth decay
But it wasn't ok
No, it wasn't ok

But it wasn't ok
No, it wasn't ok
No, it wasn't ok
No...no..not I
No..not me!

Ate a man today
Ate a man and then just walked away
But it wasn't ok
No, it wasnt' ok

. . .



You've got a rocket 
Inside your bullet head 
I've seen you walk it baby 
Your knack for greatness 
Has never done you wrong 
You showed that sweet old lady 

Who's got the bulldog 
Who's got the bulldog 
Who's got the bulldog down below 

You talk of genius 
I feel an undertow 
Which head of yours is bragging now? 
One made of lettuce is smarter than you both 
You showed that manhole anyhow 

Who's got the bulldog 
Who's got the bulldog 
Who's got the bulldog down below 

He'll bend you over 
Little red rover 
Bend you right over 
Some casanova 
Go to your momma 
Little chihuahua 
Get back to your momma 
Little chihuahua 

Oh, the bulldog!!! 
Oh, the bulldog!!! 

Who's got the bulldog 
Down below

. . .



I see you runnin and it's all over now 
The devil's comin and he's showin us how 
He's goin down on the street light 
It's such a cool sight 
The lizard king is here and where are you now? 
The monkey brain is here he's showing us how 
He's goin down on the cool right 
And I am loosing sight..and... 

Every breath is like the one before 
Yeah it's like the one before 
You get it right you breathe no more 

Sold my shadow on the blackest of nights 
Sometimes it pushed me right out of the light 
It's going down on the cool right and I am losing 
You're here to tempt me and it's all I can do 
To keep from running just to try something new 
I'm goin down on the cool ride and i am right behind...and.. 

Every breath is like the one before 
Yeah it's like the one before 
You get it right you breathe no more 
No more 
No more 

Every breath is like the one before 
Yeah it's like the one before 
You get it right you breathe no more 
Every breath is like the one before 
Yeah it's like the one before 
You bank on it you breathe no more 
No more

. . .



For every stone there's a rock 
Waiting for someone's head 
Here it come, and you wish you had two heads 
30 seconds. 30 seconds. 
Sell half your soul 
And you realize that you are 
No one. no one. no one. 

For every star 
There's another one that's fading 
Fading away, hating every bit of life 
30 seconds. 30 seconds. 

One day of sun 
And the rest you're spending as a 
No one. no one. no one. no one. 

Out of my way 
Out of my way 
Before you know you're 
Out of my way 
Out of my way 

For everyone there's another one that's stronger 
So out you go like the trash that you drug in 
30 seconds. 30 seconds. 

Paving the way 
For the ones who made you feel like 
No one. no one. no one. no one. 

Out of my way 
Out of my way 
Before you know you're 
Out of my way 
Out of my way 

. . .



I know the sun's around 
To wake the dead 
You've got if anything 
A bigger head 
Most likely to perform 
Was who I knew 
But now it's you that I have to know 
Silly who ya know 
Has got away 
Sweet little who ya know 
Lives in L.A. 
Most likely to conceive 
Was who I knew 
But now it's you that I have to know 
Only the real world 
Is so unreal 
Only the real is real 

Pocket the business card 
Be on your way 
Pocket the smiling face 
And save the day 

Most likely to perform 
Was who I knew 
But now it's you that I have to know 
Only the real world is so unreal 
Only the real is real
