you're killing me
you're killing me again
it's not my fault
it's not my fault again
there's a line, a line, a line for the whore
you're killing me
you're killing me again
 

Box Elder
Wasn't the question you asked me, it wasn’t the answer I gave
That made me feel like I was on a train
Was a distant voice, made me make a choice
That I had to get the fuck out of this town

I got a lot of things to do
A lot of places to go
I've got a lot of good things coming my way
And I'm afraid to say that you're not one of them.

Last time I was there you were out on the couch
Pressed into a little electric 2
It was the way that you smiled, made me know at once
That I had to get the fuck out of this town

'Cause I've decided to make a stand
And I'm not gonna take your hand
I'm taking the next bus outta here
I'm gonna head for Box Elder, M.O.
 

Maybe Maybe
what i was was a pissing johnson
and what she was was a faded bombshell.

maybe maybe

what i was was a mark inside her hand
what she was was a ten pound block.

She Believes
i told her lies deceitfully
and she believed, she believed in me
i told her o lip suction fragment
and she believed, she believed in me
i told her i was free of disease
and she believed, she believed in me
i told her i loved her
and she believed,  yeah she believed in me!
 

Price Yeah!
just cause i'm fakin
doesn't mean i'm wrong
cause i bought my price yeah,
no i got it at cost
and there's the things i know
wrote them down on your nib
just remember turning
it's a rapid affair

you can't say it, you can't say i'm wrong.
you can't say it, you can't say it, you can't say i'm wrong.

Forklift
chinese spectate riding forklift,
mother says "no"
can't i for...forklift me?
why? because i need money, work,
time is my life, not hers.
what does it mean?

of course work sucks: spend week in nevada
dancing with old lady full of nickels,
full of nickels and dimes
makes me tired, lose my..self
lose my cash

i get really fucked and then really drunk...

(something about playing cards and being from iowa
and the dealer had 21)

nothing left back home with his forklift
driving past boss creamer, age 24
delta pi, phd

mr. creamer, tired of words,
looked at me,"life is a forklift.
now my mouth is a forklift

this i ask: that you serve as a forklift too.

christmas, christmas
 

Spizzle Trunk
I sneezed corn flakes down to my nose
hes got a chrome-plated baby so it knows where it goes
i spent a long week waiting for my laundry with steve
i spent a long while waiting for my hair to recede

You shouldn't hate your body cuz its part of you
shouldn't hate your neighbour if he's family of man
no you shouldnt hate your family cuz there part of you
shouldn't hate your friends your friends your friends

Everybody's got one that they can't recieve
when the cat's in the kitchen there's nothing but fleas
i spent a long time waiting for my hair to recede
i spent a long time waiting for my hair to recede
 

Recorder Grot
My space is...
ready to be taken

by the sweat up high
with the fucked up eyes
with the ugly face
the ugly face, the ugly face, the ugly face
the ugly thighs!
we all thought you'd lose
to the recorder grot and kick it!

behind my back before you cross
behind my back before you crash
behind my back before you crack
behind my back before you crack
behind my back before you cross

behind my back recorder grot
behind my back recorder grot
recorder grot, recorder grot
grot!
 

Perfect Depth
slow-mo
got his hand stuck in the kitchen sink
it was his birthday tomorrow and he couldn't resist
but he never found a sign on his second skin
at least he knows how the other half lives
inside a little room about four inches wide
with windows glued shut, and air that stinks
but he only saw the kitchen and the bath
he should be thankful
so thankful

that all's ok with her

and i wasted
no one's precious time
like i wasted, i wasted all
your precious time, precious time
was a sorry thing to do
was a sorry thing for you
cuz i wasted, i wasted it all on you!
 

From Now On
from now on
i make haste
to carry my skin
into the arm
must of ?????
nevertheless
nevertheless
caught might grow in to a mind that eats
like a big taste lie

i've laid low
from now on
this is a joke
when he sees the skin rought on me
play low
from now on
this is a joke
can i see the skin rot
on a dog stray's hide
 

Angel Carver Blues/Mellow Jazz Docent
when they fall in they fall in from the roof
they grab on to me tightly as if i knew the way
when i fight for something i fight because i care
when i fight with you i fight but i don't care

everybody wants the questions to be asked
the questions are the answers to questions in themselves
ask me if i really need it
ask me if you want to get hit
hit it

ask me if you want to be...fucked.
 

Debris Slide
maybe she is

so i'm gonna sock it

Home
Fight for felicity for me.
You know i cannot do it myself.
Stick your fingers in my mouth.
Pull my lips back and watch me smile.
Catch me on my troubled portion.
Maybe there is something there for you.
Look below her nylon stockings,
snapped the double notch and left untied.

Some king chooser will wind up with my number.
I'll go to sleep and
wait for my number to come.

Deep pockets may be deeper
and always had a nickel to spare.
Now the blood blister's,
the blister's black
as she washes her hands and crosses her chest
But if you're willing to call my machine,
flip the coins and watch me light up
hope the time is right for it
when its done
turn your back

King chooser has come for my number.
I'll just roll over on my back
and wait for my number to come.
 

Mercy Snack
i'm jonesin' for a mercy snack
i'm regular
i'm treble kicked
i've been down to the laudromat
the lines are long
my lines are strong
i've been down to the south of maine
i worked a week
i snuck a peek
i've been down to the bondage street
guitar is numb
eyes are dumb

i saw the terror in your tongue
the cats domain is no longer fun
i waited and i waited and i...waited
and then i went back home to my
appartment veiws and all the screws
were loose inside my guts and gore
was pouring out i did adore my.....
 

Baptist Blackstick
I’m just waiting, waiting for the Baptist
That sad suck-off left me in Damascus
I’m just waiting, waiting for the Baptist
That sad sucker, that son left me now

I’m just wasting, wasting all the black ticks
_ _ rockers enough to make your ears twitch
I’m wasting, wasting all the black ticks
Some reddish sins, some grey, is it now?

I’m just waiting, waiting for Blacktick
That fucker

That fucker left me now
That sucker left me now
That son left me now
That son left me now
 

My First Mine
Started in the old south
i brought it to the new west
sold it for a dry claim
i bought it back the hard way

i've got a mine thats fine
isn't it the best one yet?
i bought it in '49
i've got a mine thats fine

heard about your bad fall
i guess its just the rock's fault
i bet you need some old south
i'll sell it for your gold teeth

i've got a mind thats fine
i swear its the best one yet
i bought it in '49
i've got a mind thats fine

she was just a moaner
she was never saved
bruises in my stomach fight
i fed it to my engine

i've got a mind thats fine
i swear it's the best one yet
i bought it in '49
i've got a mine thats fine

i've got a mine thats fine
i've got a mine thats fine
i've got a mine thats fine
i've got a mine thats fine.
