I know that you wont (low) love me no more. To who am I admitting? Forsaken and foreseen? To who's face was I spitting? A face cannot be seen. To who was I screaming, "I know that you wont love me no more"? Love me no more. Low Low Low Low Low Low. Heaven was screaming, so Hell did the same. To those who thought that they were dreaming; the clouds rolled away. So people started thinking, "I know that you wont love me no more". A synagogue: a portal to the instantly insane. The past-tense of immortal. Who's mouse traps look the same? I'm digging a wormhole. Cuz I know that you wont love me no more.

Tell me I'm sick I know, I'm already a ghost Am I the creep who cracked the tabernacle and horrified the host? Face-A-Thon, my face is gone in this hole Make some noise, you bibacious boys It gets old Wanna see what it looks like inside my head, oh? Wanna see what it looks like inside my head, oh? Wanna see the inside of my head, oh? No! Faucet faces fill up their vases of soul, where the flowers go The Man Who Put the World to Shame says: "Give me all your money and I'll tell you your name" Space-A-Thon, The race is one to get old This seems wrong, this marathon grows mold Wanna see what it looks like inside my head, oh? Wanna see what it looks like inside my head, oh? Wanna see the inside of my head, oh? Here is goes:

All Over It. 02:52
I finally know what I want I finally know what I got Its got you written all over it Its got you written all over it I think that we found our slot I'll go puke in the popcorn pot Complain about my other band: "Big Balloon" It might pop, It might pop if I don't fix it soon...oh no I think my folks would be proud to see the groves that we've plowed My Dad said "just imagine all the mountains to be built from you hands" My Mom's filtered understanding made me understand it all We'll build a monument with what we got If it's illegal, then we'll never get caught I hear Mikey in the kitchen, got the law on our side Sleep walk, play with knives, we're fucking terrified

Jesus, why did you leave us? You were...you were a saint Mary...Mother Mary, why so scary? Why so Scary? You were...you were a saint Of what hill? Babylon. Of what skill do you dabble on? you were...you were a saint Well, Jesus comes and Jesus goes. I cannot hold my breath any longer. He can spit in goblets, pits... We lick our plates clean, love our neighbors. In the land of the free and the home of the brave...I know....I know Jesus, why did you leave us? You know, I thought you were...I really thought you were a saint.

People like you and me were born to be a partner-party-team We're afforded everything but time in life to keep it clean And its three below and webelos are in the snow, getting cold If you're among those webelos, I promise you, I'll keep my oath I'll be your summer, girl And though we feel alone; our hemoglobin keeps us going - blood is flowing... Transporting foreign gas we've stolen To respirate our human form And I don't believe in silly things: souls stacked behind christmas trees I wont give my heart to made-up saints But I believe in spring. And I'll be your summer, girl

Sitting alone in an old rocking chair I saw an old mother with silvery hair She seemed so neglected by those who should care Rocking alone in an old rocking chair Her hands were all callused and wrinkled and old A life of hard work was the story they told And I thought of angels as I saw her there Rocking alone in an old rocking chair Bless her old heart, do you think she'd complain Though life has been bitter she'd live it again And carry that cross that is more than her share Rocking alone in an old rocking chair It wouldn't take much just to gladden her heart Just some small remembrance on somebody's part A letter would brighten her empty life there Rocking alone in an old rocking chair I know some youngsters in an orphans' home Who'd think they owned heaven if she was their own They'd never be willing to let her sit there Rocking alone in an old rocking chair I look at her and I think "What a shame" The ones who forgot her she loves just the same And I think of angels as I see her there Rocking alone in an old rocking chair

All my life I was wrong for fixing up the monkey cage Found out my telephone wasn't broken, I was just under-age Now I feel the fire under my bones telling me: "No, don't lose your heath. you're keeping yourself official" oh no, no I keep to myself, keep my own initials Well, I'm happy to see you being very Jesus-like Well, you know me; my body can take a hike I just want you to know I have no soul, just blue eyes We can start the same like you're rolling backwards Take apart the plane like you're rolling backwards Display it in a frame like you're rolling backwards Burn it in a flame Like your role
