hems and walks away ►

all of this, I absorb it like a sponge
a million people must have seen me now
I come around and I leave the scene
'cause if you get to know me well, then I will leave

my dearest girl, it seems I need you now
I have cried and all 'cause you will leave me
with this

dear God, I need a chainsaw
I need to finish some people off
and I wish you well, I wish you rot in hell
and I have to stop writing this kind of songs
but I need you, I really mean that
it had to be different but apparently it is not

fear not, I don’t own a chainsaw
I want to end all this, I have to love
and I did write a plan, it's in the garbage-can
and I wish you well, we ought to stay in touch

you and me
are at the bottom of it
of all this

friends coy destroy ►

friends coy destroy
let her see and recommend
I recommend the great room
with a view of the ocean, with a view of the stars
with a view of everything nice

try to ignore her sisters
try to ignore her remarks
they all fucking hate you
they all hate your guts

father lights a candle in the house and sits down with mother,
watching TV about the war, about the war
you can see the bombs exploding, you can see it imploding in your head
I wish your sister were dead, I hate her remarks about us, about you

the present you gave
they all hate your guts
they all fucking hate us
they hate our guts 

the power of folly ►

this dream you had of swallowing my head
that's fucking insane man, if you were really swallowing my head
me myself, I had a dream also about you that I ended in your gut and
 I had not the slightest suggestion that I might have been swallowed by you
you of all people had swallowed my insults and I had not swallowed yours

"thus saveth Darling the newly founded world from a widespread disaster”
"dead lies the waiter on the floor, tables not served"

I could save you but that would be my problem, not yours
it's like breaking the ice with a power drill
if you don’t want me around, I will love you still
it's like getting to know you without saying a word
you have to realize that you have done me hurt

angoulêmes ►

so leave the house, leave the kids, leave the garage and your car
so helpless he stands before his empty garage
I'm only a lonely person
if you've seen me taking my steps back

as a choking man fights for air ►

in the beginning I had my doubts about you
but there's a thing called love and we have worried enough about it
she reaches out to get it
this is the healing of an ending adolescence
and I have known you for how long it could last
I came as a man from the future to solve the past
there are things your mother might have told you
there are songs in my head that might unfold it

I want you just as you are
unlike a dagger through my heart
come visit me this night and we will contemplate the moon
and then contemplate the contemplation in my room
I'll see you soon
yeah, I hope it’s soon
and then it's solved
and then it's cool
it could be all so simple

we will see what the future might bring
we will see if time will stand still
probably not
it's probably God

fat chandler ►

and you pal, with a straight face
fucked your old friends, with a straight face
know your enemies don't want you to be around

you yeah, with your straight face
used to be so cool, used to be so great 
I know a lot about you and your friends from TV
they all suck

you yeah, with your straight face
fat Chandler, I hate your allies
Rachel come blow me now
and give head to Brad in the underground

you yeah, with your straight face
fat Chandler, fat Chandler

a red one he races straight through ►

constricted minds cause the river to bend and the heart to break

girls are not alone in this world ►

girls, they are not alone in this world
there is always a guy, slicker than me
who can fake some love and empathy

girls are not alone in this world
they can come together and talk about fashion
talkin' trash about your friends and how
they seem to lower themselves in winning your lust and..

all I can see is your eyes are speaking differently
another language, another love
another man who is strong enough 

wedding ►

let's make room 
for all the girls and all the boys
and all their mums and all their uncles

we'll have a party, we'll have a drink
I do not wonder about, I think

all the sons and all their mums
and all their nieces and all their aunts 
come on over with all your friends
let's have a party, let's greet the man

wedding bells ring yeah, wedding bells chime
it's time to go, it's time to decide
who catches the train, the bridal bouquet
who stays for coffee, who awaits the end

I decide 

where are all the lonely girls? ►

where are all the lonely girls?
I don't know
who you are when I look at you

even your smile
does not seem to be polite

where are all the lonely girls?

mailer decides ►

when meets the stranger the talk of the town?
too bad it isn't me
hangin' around with strangers

this bit has gotten heavy, gotten diesel and soul
with a film they captured me with an audience greater
instead of living a life with strangers

now a scene is coming with me in a fancy restaurant
my hands are shaking like Captain Miller from "Saving Private Ryan"
I know my feelings are too hard to tell but I love you anyway

and when you're around me I faint
oh God
I feel like a person on acid, who is trembling and sad and
who can only explain his feelings for you in bad poetry
you don't want me, so you've already said

the things that break so easily ►

they're out today and they won't come home tomorrow, no

but things they don't break easily

you have to drop them and they're down

and think you've broke(n) my heart and I

have served my time as a clown

and you have changed your phone number

as quickly as I gave you mine

I saw you yesterday in town

walking with another man

I think I could kill him easily

I'd break the host in half

I'd slice his throat and I would laugh

the minutes we spent and shared together

in great feathers, they were

the things that break so easily

 

and think you've broke(n) my heart and I

would laugh

would laugh about it

you've left

a walk alone to the levee ►

the stone I threw caused ripples in the water underneath
and the river slowly showed to me the feeling of the deep
and I will surely take the path of seemingly depressed right home

ancient marvels talked to me of beings that could be
I forgot I was alone and that the stone would get me deep
and I will surely take the path of seemingly depressed right home

sound of water, I could hear the whispers of the deep
they kept their voice down so I could listen to the beat
the beat that brought me death and seemingly the pest right home 

and I will surely take the path of seemingly depressed right home

goodnight and drive home safely ►

the end of desolation
and friends turned out to be friends
and I had my chance
I took my chance

goodnight and drive home safely
I hope you'll arrive in time
I won't be there 'cause you don't want me there
