LYRICS


A SEA CHANTY OF SORTS

DO WHAT YOU LIKE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE NICE
JUST POUR YOURSELF A CUP OF COFFEE
LEAVE ANYTIME, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE RIGHT
YOU'VE GOTTA LIVE THE BEST YOU KNOW HOW

AND IF YOU LOVE, WELL THAT SHOULD BE ENOUGH
INSTEAD IT TURNS YOUR JOY INTO SORROW
AND I CAN'T BREATHE WITH THE DUST OF RETREAT
I'M CHOKING ON THE FUMES OF MY WAYWARD BRIDE

MY WOMAN LIED, SHE WAS A WITCH IN DISGUISE
AND SHE DRESSED HER WOUNDS IN SACKCLOTH AND ASHES
THE CHILDREN WEEP AT THEIR DEAD MOTHER'S FEET
HER HUSBAND'S DRUNK, A WOLF IN A SHEEPSKIN COAT

AND WHEN WE KISSED, IT DIDN'T FEEL POISONOUS
AND WHEN YOU CRIED, I DRIED OFF YOUR BLUE EYES
SHE SMILES AT ME, AS SHE IS FALLING ASLEEP
SAYS WE'VE GOTTA LIVE THE BEST WE KNOW HOW TO


SKELETON KEY


I DID A SICK, SICK THING TO MY LOVE

MY LACK OF LOYALTY HAD SWALLOWED HER UP

AND SHE COOKED ME FOOD

SHE SQUIRMED AND TURNED

LIKE A SKELETON KEY

SHE LEFT HER MAN AND ATTENDED TO ME


AND DON'T CALL ME THAT

DON'T CLAIM YOU LOVE ME

CAUSE YOU KNOW THAT AIN'T TRUE

MY DIRE AFFLICTION I'LL ATTRIBUTE TO YOU

AND YOU'RE FINALLY FREE

TO TWIST AND TURN

LIKE A SKELETON KEY


YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME KNOW

YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME KNOW


I DID A HORRIBLE THING TO THAT GIRL

I BRED MY MISERY AND DROWNED IT IN HER

AND SHE GOT ME HIGH

AND I HARDLY NOTICED THERE WERE TEARS IN HER EYES


AND I MISS YOU LESS AND LESS EVERYDAY

IT’S TRUE THE WHISKEY'S HELPED TO WASH YOU AWAY

AND IT'S CLEAR TO SEE

YOU'RE NOTHING SPECIAL

YOU'RE A SKELETON KEY


YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME KNOW

YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME KNOW

YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME KNOW

YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME KNOW



VAMPIRES IN BLUE DRESSES

SOMEBODY'S GONNA LOVE YOU
SOMEBODY OUGHTA LAY YOU OUT

DON'T GIVE IT AWAY
'CAUSE I NEED YOU THE MOST
WHEN I'M HALF OF WHAT I WAS
WHEN I WAS IN YOUR ROOM

AND DON'T PICK UP THE PHONE
DON'T ANSWER THE DOOR
‘CUZ THOSE VILLAINS WANT YOUR BLOOD
AND THEY'RE GONNA GET IT

YOUR MOTHER IS A VAMPIRE
SHE SUCKED YOUR OLD MAN'S LIFE AWAY

TURN EVERYTHING OFF
AND JUST COVER YOUR NECK
'CAUSE LIFE IS FULL OF YOUR REGRETS
AND I SHOULD BE ONE

TRY TELLING ME OFF
TRY SLAMMING THE DOOR
AND TELL ME I'M NOT WORTH YOUR TIME
OR THE BREATH I'M BREATHING

DON'T THROW IT AWAY
OH, CALICO QUEEN
‘CUZ NOW YOU'RE MERELY A MACHINE
AND NOT A PERSON

TRY TELLING ME OFF
TRY SLAMMING THE DOOR
AND TELLING ME I'M NOT WORTH YOUR TIME
OR THE BREATH I'M BREATHING


QUIET AS A MOUSE

TOURISTS ROB YOU OF YOUR HOME
IN SUNKEN BOATS
AND YOU CAN HIDE QUIET AS A MOUSE
BUT THEY'LL FIND YOU OUT

WHEN SHE ASKED ME
WHY HAVE YOU FELT SO DOWN AND OUT?
YOU CAN STAY WITH ME AT MY HOUSE

WHEN I WOKE MY BACK WAS BROKE FROM LYING ON THE FLOOR
SUNLIGHT POURED THROUGH ALL THE CRACKS IN MY FRONT DOOR
WAKE UP, YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF THINGS TO DO
WAKE UP, THE SUN IS RISING WITHOUT YOU

TOURISTS ROBBED ME OF MY CHILD
THEY SMOKED HIM OUT
HE WAS DRAFT-DODGING SOME WAR
'TIL THEY FOUND HIM OUT

AND HE CAME HOME LATE IN THE NIGHT
TO HIS MOM AND ME
AND HE SAID TIMES THEY GOTTA CHANGE
BUT SO DO WE

WHEN I WOKE I WAS ALIVE IN SOMEBODY'S ROOM
I FELT LIFE AND LOVE AND HOPE INFESTING MY BONES
WAKE UP, YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF THINGS TO DO
WAKE UP, THE SUN IS RISING WITHOUT YOU

WHEN I WOKE MY BODY WAS DYING, MY WOMAN HAD FLOWN
I FELT APATHY AND HATE INFESTING MY BONES
WAKE UP, YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF THINGS TO DO
WAKE UP, THE SUN IS RISING WITHOUT YOU


JEN IS BRINGIN' THE DRUGS

JEN IS BRINGIN' THE DRUGS
SHE WANTS TO GET REAL FUCKED UP
SHE USED TO LAUGH AND SMILE
BUT THE YEARS OF DENIAL
HAVE TAKEN THEIR TOLL ON HER DIAL

BUT ME, I DO AS I PLEASE
I CAUGHT YOU AND I SET YOU FREE
‘CUZ I HAVE BEEN LEFT ALONE
BY THE PEOPLE I'VE KNOWN
AND I DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY'RE COMING HOME

AND JEN DON'T WANNA BE SEEN
BUT I SAW HER IN A SWANK MAGAZINE
SHE HAD AN AIRBRUSHED FACE
BUT THE LINES OF DISTASTE
WERE CROSSED WITHOUT CROSSING OF LEGS

AND I DON'T WANT TO BE FOUND
SO WHEN YOU GET HOME I'M SKIPPING TOWN
I'M LEAVING TO GO SOME PLACE
WHERE NOBODY WILL
HAVE ANY CLUE WHERE I AM

AND JEN IS BRINGIN' THE DRUGS
SHE'S GONNA GET ME FUCKED UP
‘CUZ LOVE IS AN INKLESS PEN
IT'S A TAVERN, IT'S SIN
IT'S A HORRIBLE WAY TO BEGIN


DRESS ME LIKE A CLOWN

I AM ALIVE, I AM ALIVE
AND THAT IS THE BEST THAT I CAN DO
GOMER YOU LIED, YOU SWORE YOU WERE MINE
I TOOK YOU BACK A THOUSAND TIMES
TALK OF THE TOWN, YOU'VE BEEN AROUND
IF HE IS THE MAN YOU WANT THEN GO

BUT TONIGHT WE'LL LEAVE
ALL OUR LOVERS BEHIND
AND TRY TO LIVE A QUIET LIFE
MY LOVE HAS DRESSED ME LIKE A CLOWN

YOU ARE AN ASP, A SNAKE IN THE GRASS
VANITY SEEPS FROM OUT YOUR PORES
AND BABY IT'S TIME TO PAY FOR MY CRIME
NOTHING I SAY CAN MAKE YOU MINE
YOU’RE EITHER SINGIN’ IN KEY, OR RUNNIN’ TO ME
I CAN FAKE IT AS GOOD AS YOU

BUT TONIGHT WE'LL LEAVE
ALL OUR STUPID SONGS
WE'LL DRIVE AND REACH THE HILLS BY DAWN
MY LOVE HAS DRESSED ME LIKE A CLOWN

TONIGHT WE'LL LEAVE
ALL OUR LOVERS BEHIND
AND TRY TO LIVE A QUIET LIFE
MARGOT, YOU DRESS ME LIKE A CLOWN

TONIGHT WE'LL DRINK
INTO AN EARLY GRAVE
WE'LL LAUGH, BUT WE WILL NEVER BE SAVED
SOMEONE HAS DRESSED US ALL LIKE CLOWNS

DARLING IT'S SIN, WHERE DO I BEGIN
PUTTING THE CONTACT LENSES IN…


ON A FREEZING CHICAGO STREET


ON A FREEZING CHICAGO STREET WE SHOOK
YOUR HANDS WERE TREMBLING FROM ALL THOSE PILLS YOU TOOK
AND WE GOT DRUNK ON CHEAP RED WINE IN A PAPER CUP


AND I WAS BARELY AWAKE WHEN YOU GOT HOME

AND CLIMBED YOURSELF INTO BED WEARIN' CHEAP PERFUME

AND SARA SCREAMED YOUR EVERY BREATH IS A GIFT

IF YOU WEREN'T SO SELFISH THEN YOU MIGHT WANT TO LIVE


SO IF YOUR LOVER SHOULD LEAVE DON'T GET TOO SAD

AND DON'T COMPOSE EPIC POEMS TO WIN HER BACK

‘CUZ WHEN YOUR BIRD HAS FLOWN SHE'LL NEVER RETURN HOME

THOUGH ALL YOUR LIFE YOU'LL WAIT SHE NEVER WILL RETURN


PAPER KITTEN NIGHTMARE


MY PAPER CAT HAS COVERED MY SKIN IN CHILLS

MY BASEMENT HOME HAS MADE ME AS COLD AS ICE


SO MEOW MEOW ET CHANTEZ A MOI

MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW


MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW

MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW


MY ISLAND HOME IS GONNA BE MINE QUITE SOON

YOUR CONCRETE MOUTH IS SPEWING THAT FILTH AGAIN


SO I'LL WALK IN SHIVERING

PAWS DRIED UP FROM WANDERING


MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW

MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW


MY GLASS-EYED PET IS PURRING 'BOUT BLONDE ON BLONDE

THAT SWEET OLD MAN IS GONNA BE YOUR BEST FRIEND


SO WASH YOUR PAWS ALLEY CAT

ONCE YOU'RE DEAD YOU CAN'T COME BACK


MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW

MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW


MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW

MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW


MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW

MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW



BARFIGHT REVOLUTION, POWER VIOLENCE


SHE WAS A WHITE OWL

AND HAD 'EM LIKE A HIGH SCHOOL DROP OUT

HER BRITTLE BONES WERE CRACKING FAINTLY

HER ODE TO WAS A LUNCH TIME LADY


SO I CAN TURN BACK HONEY, COME ON BACK DARLING

COME ON, COME ON, GET BACK TOGETHER

WASTE YOUR TIME IN THE NEW

WHEN I’M TALKING TO YOU, SHUT UP


SHE WAS COMING UP FROM

EVERY THING WE EVER TAUGHT HER

HE SAID ONLY TRY TO TALK WHEN SPOKEN TO 

AND BELIEVE IT'S NOW OR NEVER


SO I CAN GO BACK HONEY, YOU'RE FOLDING MONEY

COME ON, COME ON GET BACK TOGETHER

PRANCE AROUND IN THE NUDE WHEN I’M TALKING TO YOU, SHUT UP


TURN YOURSELF INTO MUSH, YOU'RE TAKING IT OFF

COME ON GET BACK TOGETHER

WASTE YOUR TIME IN THE NEW

WHEN I’M TALKING TO YOU COME ON


LIKE A TIGER CREEPING, OH CANADA

YOU DUG YOUR TEETH IN

AND THIS CHILD IS GONNA WALK HIMSELF HOME

AND NOTHING’S GONNA STOP HIS PROGRESS


SO I CAN TURN BACK HONEY, COME ON BACK DARLING

COME ON, COME ON GET BACK TOGETHER

PRANCE AROUND IN THE NUDE

WHEN I’M TALKING TO YOU, SO SHUT UP


TURN YOUR SELF INTO MUSH, YOU'RE TAKING IT OFF

COME ON GET BACK TOGETHER

WASTE YOUR TIME IN THE NEW

WHEN I’M TALKING TO YOU, SHUT UP



A LIGHT ON A HILL


THAT'S NO WAY TO LIVE

ALL TANGLED UP LIKE BALLS OF STRING

AND WE WOKE AT DAWN

AND WATCHED THE SUN GLIDE OVER THE HILL


I JUST SAID THE FIRST

THREE WORDS THAT POPPED INTO MY HEAD

LET ME OFF THE BUS, I'M TIRED AND SORE

AND SHOULD PROBABLY CHANGE CLOTHES


AND THE CIRCUITS ARE BLOWN, MY WOMAN IS COLD

OUR CHILDREN ARE STONED AND WORTHLESS

THEY'RE ALL WAITING FOR YOU TO TELL THEM THE TRUTH

BUT TRUTH IS A LINE THAT YOU'LL NEVER USE


AND HER DIGNITY

SHONE SO BRIGHT LIKE A LIGHT ON A HILL

AND SHE BURNED FOR ME

AND NO OTHER MAN CAME NEAR HER FLAME


AND BAD COUNTRY SONGS

THE DEAFENING TWANG OF THE RICH-WHITE-KID BLUES

YOU CAN OWN THE STAGE

BUT THE LIGHTS AND GLARES WILL NOT MAKE YOU REAL


SHE WHISPERS TO ME I WAS MEANT TO BE FREE

THIS LIE THAT WE'VE BUILT IS DEADLY

SHE CRAWLS FROM MY BED, RUNS A COMB 'CROST HER HEAD

SHE CRAWLS TO THE TRAIN AND DRIVES HERSELF HOME



TALKING IN CODE


I GOTTA GO

AND YOU'RE TALKING IN CODE

SAYING I KNOW WHERE YOU'VE BEEN

AND I KNOW WHERE YOU GO


I'VE BEEN TIRED FROM THE MINUTE I WOKE

I STOPPED LISTENING THE MOMENT YOU SPOKE

AND SAID I'M LONG GONE

YEAH I'M LONG GONE


AND I'M SLEEPING ALONE

IN A HOUSE I DON'T OWN

CAUSE IF YOU'RE TOURING YOUR MIND

YOU'LL GET LOST EVERY TIME


YOU'LL SING ME SAD SONGS TO KEEP ME AWAKE

IN THAT BEDROOM WHERE WE HID AWAY

BABY I'M LONG GONE

YEAH I'M LONG GONE


AND YOUR VOICE CRACKS LIKE A PIANO

YOU KEEP MOVING, BUT WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

BABY WE'RE LONG GONE

YEAH WE'RE LONG GONE



BOOKWORM


I'M IN A BOOK FOR YOU TO READ AND THEN THROW OUT

I WASN'T BORN, I WAS JUST DROPPED INTO YOUR ARMS


WELL MOM I'VE BEEN BAD

AND I WANNA COME HOME


AND YOU COULDN'T BREATHE WITH ALL THOSE DOCTORS AT YOUR SIDE

BUT YOU'RE TALKING TO ME, SAYING I WISH THAT I HAD DIED


‘CUZ I'M BEING PRODDED, CRUSHED IN YOUR HANDS

I WANNA COME HOME ON THE F TRAIN


AND YOU WERE JUST A PAPER BOAT FLOATING THROUGH THE GUTTER

LOST AT SEA YOU DRIFT TO ME AND INTO SOMEONE'S NIGHTMARES


HOME IS A HIGHWAY, YOUR PILLOW'S A ROCK

I'M IN A RUSTED CAR, BOUND TO GET LOST
