Queenie 04:25
lyrics
this for Queenie I got her a forest a gift of silence this for Queenie who's too shy to speak shivering in gold Queenie's dressed at a sheik This for Robert I got him a balloon This is for William who acts like a buffoon this for Queenie this for Starlet this for Queenie this is for Robert a gift of silence silence is a gift this for Queenie I got her a forest a gift of silence silence is a gift this for Queenie she's too shy to speak shivering in the cold Queenie's dressed at a sheik

Birdman 02:56
lyrics
how did you get that bird to talk? I rewired it 15 times or more I rewired your mouth shut but he's still acting bored how did you get that bird to sing? I thought I ripped out all it's vocals cords I rewired it just to ring and you still always wanting more I got a brick for the Birdman he can use it to break my face the trouble is with the Birdman I see him all over the place he can't let anything go he thinks he's got some right to know how did you get that bird to speak? I forgot all about the talking birds I remember most everything but forgot the most important words I gotta distract the Birdman so he can forget my face the trouble is with the Birdman I see him all over the place he can't let anything go he thinks he's got some right to know

Untited No. 4 04:47
lyrics
four eyes got ties to blood in our spies you can count the letters you can spend your time I got mine just for fun spent four fingers waiting a good run hey little girl, who's in your world? hey little girl who's in your pants? hey little girl come on, let's dance you and you and you and you and you and you are lost from talking loses two fingers to leaders two fingers to bosses I've forgotten lies because I'm weak from fighting on the bed to fighting on the street hey small boy do you have a chance? hey small boy come on, let's dance

The Future 05:48
lyrics
this is the god's honest truth I swear I never touched a thing on a broken wing with new words to sing why is this city forsaken? why are words hard to write? I've seen the future and the future is tonight this is denying god while I whip myself from from existence I'm not saying that I'm right it's just another poor suckers resistance power is relative I'm charged on electrolytes I've seen the future and the future is tonight this is the end of world on the breath of hell all the children ring out so do the church bells why is this city so doomed? why is it hard to write? I've seen the future and the future is tonight

lyrics
Dear Mr Presentman, do yourself a favor breath in and breath out you'll be your own savior you've got something to regret I've got words you won't forget Dear Mr Presentman, bring me something to eat I've got something for you if you leave a treat You've got something I'll remember I've got something you'll forget

Ghosts 04:00
lyrics
it takes a pillow to put over a face weigh down your options eyelids close in case it takes lips and a tongue torn in two for once in a time when time wasn't new there are ghosts in here you can feel the floor shake shadows curl up the walls my hands ache I'll take a ring put it around a finger the air stop moving and so did I I'll take some floor space a place to rest the eyes it'll be forever before I'm willing to decide
7.
Shapes 03:41
lyrics
I've got answers I gotta watch I've got conspiracy and something to start shapes, shapes are straight shapes, shapes are late I've got conspiracy and I can wait your voices was shaking for no reason it could have nerves it could have been season my hands are shaking my voice is steady tow things that I know and one isn't ready isn't confusing beautiful? because things don't work like this the shaking of a hand the pounding of a fist I've got this voice and not much else but stalking strangers and talking to myself shapes, shapes take form shapes, shapes stay strong

Your Big Mouth Will Get You In Trouble 03:25
lyrics
I've got a big fat heart that won't stop beating the can cut me from head to toe and I'll start bleeding I'm ten feet tall today I was nine feet yesterday smaller the day before I'm growing taller everyday everyday my head is the reddest thing my name was Late and the drive down to the hospital was the weirdest state I weight ten tons today I was nine tons yesterday and smaller the day before I'm getting bigger everyday everyday I've got a big fat mouth that won't stop talking beaten up for the words I saw these dudes are walking I'm three feet small today I was ten feet yesterday I'm shrinking every time I have nothing to say

$ Vs. Entertainment 05:46
lyrics
think back to where you got your things remember where you put them now put a stamp on every little package get them downtown on the bus somehow you've got something for entertainment you've got your ethics to deal with sir the fact is you're in the business of money I'm in the business of being unsure you've got something for edutainment you got stamps and letter too you're one lucky son of a bitch because we even deal with you this marks the end of your movement this is the time you'll need to stop and think I'm getting my information from a screen and what I see is starting to stink you forgo your right to pleasantness you forgo your right to take a shower day by day by day you're getting older everyday feels like an hour

Hands 03:58
lyrics
taller than any building is this man I hate these stupid hands and everything that they planned these stupid hand grow to unfold nothing to show the evidence is clear we have nothing to fear I mistook your wisdom as the truth sunken down below the sea level no truer words were spoken when they called and said they called you the devil what the reason that you fell into place mistaking treasures as what you found in case I got a piece of wisdom for you hide out until that stop what they do taller than any mountain is this man I hate these little hands these stupid hand grow to unfold nothing to show the evidence is true they'll be looking for you I mistook your wisdom as the truth sunken down below the sea level no truer words were spoken when they called and said they called you the devil

Untitled No. 5 03:11
lyrics
these steps never seemed longer cars crash into their father white waves wash away but the fear keeps getting stronger take your two eyes there and imagine what you'll see I'm unfortunate and skinny and easy to please take your two eyes back and write your messages there say goodbye to everyone tell them to get their share goodbye to shapelessness goodbye to unhappiness goodbye to everyone goodbye complacency

Gemini 05:32
lyrics
I want to burn down Cathedral Hill please kill me in my sleep please tell me which way is down and I'll tell you which one is me if I told you something close to my heart would you keep it to yourself? or would you tell everyone else? Abigail, please deliver me from greatness and Queenie, kill me in my sleep I misplaced all the photographs that I said I would always keep if I fall asleep drunk again on the bus ride home could you please forgive me? and cut me to the bone

A Secret 03:07
lyrics
people get through life talking small whisper to me your secrets I'll tell them all I know a secret I'm sure you don't know talk to the shrink about it tell them all I know love the little things and the big ones too I miss sharing these things with you I can play the guessing game I can cry to your face and end up broken down where I was in the first place people get through life despite it all whisper in my ear your secrets and I won't tell I thought I knew you I thought I knew myself I guess I don't know anything I've been lying to myself
