"so you wanna dance
and you wanna gloat."
said the last poem
the last poets wrote
"turn, turn, turn, turning point,
we're burning the roof off this joint."
the last falls of fashion
have turned into blood
blood on my neck line
and tie it very tight
everything will be all right tonight
"so you wanna dance
and you wanna flirt?
nobody move, man
nobody gets hurt.
so you wanna bleed tonight?
well put on your coat."
said the last poem

Gravity Days
03:13

gravity days, light gravity days
float along the sea shore
crawl across the rocks
some days I feel so heavy
some days I feel so light
days make me dizzy
nights make me sleep tight
now I'm king of this island
leader of the world
my brain is getting heavier
now I'm king of this rock
leader of the world
my eyes are getting heavier
gravity days, light gravity days
some days I live a fairly tale
some days I live a lie
words make me lazy
sound makes me cry
gravity days, light gravity days

I'm A Radio

I'm a radio, I'm airwaves,
I'm FM, I'm AM.
I'm a radio, I'm floating,
I'm laughing, I'm talking.
I'm a radio, I'm antennas,
I'm dials, I'm knobs.
I’m a radio, I’m energy,
I am angry, I’m not a radio

The Monster of Martin Street
likes little children to eat
has eyes like caves
making people it's slaves
The Monster of Martin Street
is a nuclear physicist
has a brain like a rock
oh, what a shock
no one passes by Martin Street
no one ever walks in the dark
no one sleeps under bridges
no one has a glimpse or spark
The Monster of Martin Street
is searching for victims
in a city of frowns
and neighborhood of clowns
The Monster of Martin Street
puts on it's make up
does up it's hair
dances with flair
everyone passes by Martin Street
everyone is awakened by screams
everyone has thumbs in their ears
everyone has evil twin dreams

Party @ The Liquidation
03:10

it starts with an exchange of gifts
ends with a worthwhile experiment
what a birthday party it was this year
wasn't it a beautiful thing?
he turned out the lights tonight
and rushed off to get some cigarettes
"my son likes pretty girls," he said
"along with a slew of empty threats."
we are the entertainment
at this special engagement
we are the jesters at this liquidation
nobody smiles in this neighborhood
yet nobody has a care
old men and women are romancing
with their children in their underwear

I'm your average worker bee
working all the time
I'm buzzing around the hive
it's buzzing in my mind
I'm your average robot man
programmed to perform
I'm buzzing and clicking
buzzing, clicking, conformed
I'm concerned I'm losing it
I think I'm breaking down
I can't work, I don't think
I think I'm breaking down
I'm buzzing-I'm breaking down
I'm your average worker bee
working and working
I'm buzzing around my head
I'm buzzing till I'm dead
I'm concerned I'm losing it
I think I'm breaking down
I can't work, I don't think
I'm buzzing all around
I'm buzzing-I'm breaking down

The Divorce
03:27
|
|
||
an overdue notice
and a rocking chair
some people
look better than others
with bows in their hair
a one time up and comer
has left with his things
I'm sure that you'd really miss him
and all the love he'd bring
a psychopath killer
now your best friend
you've shared blood and sweat
and tears and everything
your little sisters and brothers
are gone with the wind
but you are so over it
and you always win
