Old Flame

You knew in five minutes,
But I knew in a sentence
You knew in five minutes,
But I knew in a sentence

So why do we go through all of this again?
Your eyes are flutterin¡¯
Such pretty wings.
A moth, flyin¡¯ into the
Same old flame again
It never ends

It¡¯s not like I dropped the bomb,
on my conscience mom
It takes fightin¡¯ day and night
to make such a good thing die

Out, everyone out
I give too much shit at home
In my heart and mind
It gets me every time

So why do we go
Through all this shit again
Your eyes are Flutterin¡¯
Such pretty wings.
A moth flyin¡¯ into me
The same old flame again
It never ends

I¡¯m Sleeping In A Submarine

She¡¯s gone to sea
She¡¯s fightin¡¯ for me
What bravery!

I¡¯m sleeping in a battle ship
I¡¯m sleeping in a submarine
I¡¯m sleeping in a fighter plane
I¡¯m sleeping going down the drain

All hands on deck!

The radio adresss
What a mess!

A cage is a cage
Is a cage, is a cage!

No Cars Go

We know a place where no planes go
We know a place where no ships go

(Hey!) No cars go
(Hey!) No cars go
Where we know

We know a place no space ships go
We know a place where no subs go

(Hey!) No cars go
(Hey!) No cars go
Where we know

(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Cars go!)

(Hey!) Us kids know
(Hey!) No cars go
Where we know

Between the click of the light and the start of the dream
Between the click of the light and the start of the dream
Between the click of the light and the start of the dream
Between the click of the light and the start of the dream

I don¡¯t want any pushing, and I don¡¯t want any shoving.
We¡¯re gonna do this in an orderly manner.
Women and children!
Women and children!
Women and children, let¡¯s go!
Old folks, let¡¯s go!
Babies needing cribs, let¡¯s go!

The Woodland National Anthem

I guess we¡¯ll have to move
The neighborhood is on to us

Let¡¯s join the little babe¡¯s
Throwin¡¯ rocks in front of us

Riding on my bicycle
I pass my sister on a bus
Let¡¯s take the country road before our parents send for us

Trees keep fallin¡¯ at my feet
I guess it¡¯s time ot build a boat
Make a raft of our bodies
Do you think that it¡¯ll float?
What I said was not a joke,
But you just licked the envelope
I¡¯m tired of dating, let¡¯s elope
But you just licked the envelope

Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!
Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!

Don¡¯t you dare blame my parents
I¡¯m the only failed experiment
Don¡¯t you dare blame your parents
You¡¯re the only failed experiment
Don¡¯t you dare blame your grandparents
Mom¡¯s the only failed experiment
Don¡¯t you dare blame your grandparents
Dad¡¯s the only failed experiment
Don¡¯t blame God
Just blame God
Don¡¯t blame God

My Heart Is An Apple

I¡¯ll admit I¡¯m full of shit
That¡¯s how I know I love you
That¡¯s how I know I trust you,
You¡¯re not sure if there¡¯s a right or wrong
But it feels like there is when I treat you like this
I go outside

Texas, I won¡¯t come home
Not even if you call
I can¡¯t hear you at all
I can¡¯t explain why it¡¯s a sin the state I¡¯m living in
I just feel so tired
I go outside

My mouth is full, your heart is an apple
My mouth is full, your heart is an apple
Pomme-pomme-pomme-pomme-pomme-pomme-pomme-pomme

Please don¡¯t even call
I can¡¯t hear you at all.

Headlights Look Like Diamonds

The red lights mean you¡¯re leaving
The white one¡¯s mean returning
Tell me how this story ends
And I¡¯ll keep them fires burning

The headlights look like diamonds
The taillights burn like coals
Tell me how this story ends
Before the fires go cold

The countryside¡¯s deserted
There¡¯s no one on the farms
The suburbs all are sleeping
The earthquakes set off car alarms

All after all now we aware
All after all the time we share
There¡¯s so much fears of world,
Types of world,
Tears of world

Vampires / Forest Fire

You wanna be set apart? Burn all of your art repair the wasteful part
I¡¯m a vampire in a forest fire
Hey! we all gotta keep warm
driving towards the storm

Your father was a pervert
Face down in the dirt
He taught you how to hurt
My father was a miner who lived in the suburbs
Let¡¯s live in the suburbs
If I let where I¡¯m from burn I can never return!

My brother reads you and me his new poetry
How embarassing
Your sister pours the gasoline
I¡¯ll fix your meals
while your burns heal!

Find a house you don¡¯t have to rebuild
Stone by stone, brick by brick, nail by nail my father never meant to leave me this
Let this love last
I drive too fast
Said I¡¯d return if I¡¯d ever cared
But there¡¯s no interstate I find to take me there
