Spaceman

The space monkey
Is eating your spaghetti
Since they hypnotized
Both your eyes with TV
It's you completely nude
With a tube of toothpaste food
You're a spaceman
Waking up a zillion miles away
Oh no
To a flying saucer
Playing records in your brain
All you have is a photograph
A typewriter and rayguns
So you use telepathy
To try to see where it all went wrong
In half an hour your psychic power
Will reach the Earth
You're a spaceman
Waking up a zillion miles away
Oh no
To a flying saucer
Playing records in your brain
Brain brain brain brain
You're a spaceman
Waking up a zillion miles away
Oh no
To a flying saucer
Playing records in your brain
Oh no
You're a spaceman
Waking up a zillion miles away
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no

Shoulda Coulda Woulda

Tell me would you call her
Tell me would you say
Soon you’ll be a goner
She will get away
So you shoot your gold now
Throw your sun away
Soon you’ll see that true love
Shouldn’t count money
Tyler, should I say hello?
Tyler, sugar didn’t come
Tyler, shoulda coulda woulda found a way
You shoulda found a way
But she got away
So you shoulda called
Tell her what you need
Tell her with a shiner
You shoulda bottled the see
The show in Pensacola
You know you wish you’d seen
True love is a sell out
You shoulda bet on me
Tyler, should I say hello?
Tyler, true love did not wait
Tyler, shoulda coulda woulda found a way
You shoulda found a way
But she got away
Tyler, should I say hello?
Tyler, sugar didn’t stay
Tyler, shoulda coulda woulda found a way
You shoulda bought that ring
But she got away

Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben you're gone
Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben you're gone
Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben you're gone
Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben you're gone
You brought me up like I was your own
You got shot by a dime store thief
Now you're dead in the middle of the street
Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben you're gone
You're stepping out just to bring me home
After all, after all you've done
You got shot by a dime store thief
Now you're dead in the middle of the street
Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben you're gone
Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben you're gone
You brought me up like I was your own
You got shot by a dime store thief
Now you're dead in the middle of the street
Uncle Ben you're gone and you're never coming back

Kiss with the Lights Out
04:13
|
|||
|
Whisper it to me
One magnetic key
Thousand hour wheels
Smells like gasoline
Creedance on the floor
Summersault and pepper baby
Purple hair is in
Shooting stars again
If you want to kiss with the lights out
Kiss with the lights out
I don’t care if somebody finds out
Somebody finds out
Baby girl you know
Beauty fades away
Jumping Jack will stay
But stars don’t shine in the day
Roses aren’t the way
Sonnets aren’t the way
Love songs aren’t for me
Just one magnetic key
If you want to kiss with the lights out
Kiss with the lights out
I don’t care if somebody finds out
Somebody finds out
If you want to kiss with the lights out
Kiss with the lights out
I don’t care if somebody finds out
Somebody finds out
If you want to kiss with the lights out
Kiss with the lights out
I don’t care if somebody finds out
Somebody finds out

Naked girls, naked girls
Naked girls are all around me
Naked girls, naked girls
Naked girls are trying to get me
Parking lots, movie stars
Shopping malls, I don't get far
Through windows, TV screens
Naked girls are looking at me
I will try to get away
But I will never get away from these girls
Naked girls, naked girls
Naked girls are all I can see
Naked girls everywhere
naked girls are trying to get me
When they come, I will hide
I will run as fast as a I can
In the streets, In my head
Naked girls are my biggest fan
I will try to get away
But I will never get away from these girls
Parking lots, movie stars
Shopping malls, I don't get far
Through windows, TV screens
Naked girls are looking at me
La la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la

I will try to get away
But I will never get away from these girls

Naked girls are all around me
Naked girls, naked girls
Naked girls are trying to get me
Naked girls, naked girls
Naked girls are all around me
Naked girls, naked girls
Naked girls are trying to get me

You Are a Star
03:32

Driving down at midnight
White lines burning bright
A hundred miles an hour
Never felt so fucking slow
Neon lights and bibles
Are shining down on you
I know you're gonna make it
Yes you are
Cuz baby you are a star
The golden glow of street lights
Are shining down on you
Magazines and cop cars
Have got you seeing black and blue
Neon lights and bibles
Are shining down on you
I know you're gonna make it
Yes you are
Cuz baby you are a star
You don't want to notice
You don't want to see
Sit down now and listen
This is a sign
A sign
Neon lights and bibles
Are shining down on you
I know you're gonna make it
Yes you are
Cuz baby you are a star
Cuz baby you are a star
Cuz baby you are a star

She Can Count the Days
03:48

Ten steps back
Back to where she came
She wants back on her feet again
Loosen up your credit cards today
She can't call the same old friends again
Going to California
To play her tambourine
Kissing her tomorrows
She can count the days
Please step back
she's trying to catch the wave
On the dot at 6am today
Punch right through the doomsday prophecy
It's Charlotte's time to find her way
Going to California
To play her tambourine
Kissing her tomorrows
She can count the days
Going to California
To play her tambourine
Kissing her tomorrows
She can count the days
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
Go to California
Kill them all with kindness yeah
Conquer all your giants
And never come back
Go to California
Kill them all with kindness yeah
Knock it till you try it
And never come back
Go to California
Play your tambourine, oh yea
Kiss all your tomorrows
And never come back
Come back
She can count the days
She can count the days

Ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Riding down the street
Following the voices
Dad said don't come home
Till you find some boys to play with
Well the friends I made
Play football in the road
With loud guitars they smoke pot
When their folks ain't home
I don’t want to
I don’t want to come home
Home
I got something
I got something to prove
With my drop-D band
And my brand new black tattoo
Oh yea
My ego’s in the sky
Like a big balloon
Well we go go go
And we play to an empty room
Oh no
I don’t want to
I don’t want to come home
Home
I don’t want to
I don’t want to come home
To come home right now
Ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
I don’t want to come home
I don’t want to come home
I don’t want to come home
I don’t want to come home
I don’t want to
I don’t want to come home
To come home right now

I'm not so sure that he's here for you
This is a fear that you cannot shake
But I'm gonna be there to pick you up
When tears start rolling down your face
Down down burn it
Right right to the ground
I'll be there to fight
No no I don't back down
He's going out for a cigarette
Gone to the store and he won't come back
You're falling over yourself to stay
But I'm gonna wish it all away
Down down burn it
Right right to the ground
I'll be there to fight
No no I don't back down
Down burn it
Right right to the ground
I'll be here to fight
No no I don't back down
I don't back down
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Down down burn it
Right right to the ground
I'll be here to fight
No no I don't back down
Down burn it
Right right to the ground
I'll be here to fight
No no I don't back down
I don't back down
