The Concept Of You
02:46
|
|||
I don't know the reality of you, darlin'
I don't know what it's like to be you
But if you were mine, oh, mine
Oh how that would be so very fine
and anything less than that will not do
Baby, I dig you
More than words can say
Baby, I dig you
Why let reality get in the way
And I don't know the reality of you, baby
but I love the concept of you
You don't know the real me, do you, girl?
You don't know what it's like to be me
I love to fantasize
And you make me all glassy-eyed
I got a lump in my throat and I'm wobbly in the knees

Woman And Her Clothes
03:30
|
|||
There's no separating a woman and her clothes
It's just a legend I once heard
There's no separating a woman and her clothes
Unless you say the magic words (and they are)
I am a doctor, this is my sports car
Have another glass of champagne
I am a lawyer, this is my speedboat
Let's fly to Vegas, play with this bankroll
There's no separating a woman and her clothes
No separating them at all
I am a blogger, it doesn't pay
But I'll get a book deal when Hell freezes over
My blog's unique, it critiques pop culture
I live in a trailer, my life's a failure
Over the weekend, I do the barhop
An average frustrated creep
I go home alone, empty off into a towel
Then use that same towel to weep, because
There's no separating a woman and her clothes
No separating them at all
There's no separating a woman and her clothes
Unless you make the mating call
I will invest in all of your drama
I'll follow your every whim
What kind of man do you want me to be
I'll become him
I'll become him
spoken: How'd you like to take a helicopter ride to Aspen... ski for a weekend? I got Lakers tickets, front row. The players practically sweat on you. One time, Kobe gave me a high-five after he hit a game-winning jump shot.

Gadzooks Said The Witch
01:31
|

Gadzooks, said the witch
Two children stand at the front door
A pretty girl, a handsome boy
Gadzooks, said the witch
I shall make them my servants
They will toil night and day
They will my maid and butler
Gadzooks, said the witch
If they displease me the slightest
I will munch upon their bones
I will chew upon their tender flesh
Their souls will become my own
And their blood will be my water
And their blood will quench my thirst
Let them in now, first things first
Gadzooks, said the witch

Gay 4 Luv
02:55
|
|||
I'm not gay for fancy cars
I'm not gay for diamond rings
I'm not gay for silk pajamas
or any of the finer things
but i'm gay for luv, gay for luv
I'm not gay for pickup trucks
I'm not gay for limousines
I'm not gay for Cadillacs
or any precision machines
but i'm gay for luv, gay for luv
I want a love worth fighting for
worth protesting in the streets
I want a love worth fighting for
a love that can't be beat
If I could have the kind of love
that made me raise a picket sign
I'd be so happy just have it
and proud to call it mine

My Bacon
02:27
|
|||
You took a guy home that night I made you bacon
You took a big ol' dookie on my heart
Now I aint mad at you for getting your fuck on
But why'd ya have to let him have a head start
Now I aint mad at him for getting his dick wet
We all luv that ass while it's shakin'
just do me a favor
and don't let him eat my bacon
That bacon was a gift from me to you
You can share it with whoever you like
But please don't share it with the motherfucker
Givin' you the deep dick tonight
I put the bacon on the cookie sheet
I put brown sugar on the meat
I put it in the oven and it came out sweet
I poured my heart into something that you can eat
I can't get no love, girl
I can't even get no slack
and if you aint gonna me any of your sweet punany
then you better give me my tupperware back
I wish I was on top of you tonight
Think of all the orgasms you could be faking
Just let me have my dignity
and keep him away from my bacon
Bacon bits, sing it with me one time...

Hey Pretty Darlin
03:25
|

Hey pretty darlin', look at me
I'm living in your world
And you're a pretty girl
I'm walking on your concrete
Drivin' up and down your street
and I'm marchin' on your beat
Tell me where you want to go
I'll take you, just let me know
Hey pretty darlin', pretty darlin', darlin'
Just to impress you, I'll put on a show
I'll reserve a ticket for you in the front row
I can't think you, baby, 'cause you make me so...
It's a word I can't recall
can't remember at all
my mind hit the wall
It's beginning to stall
Hey pretty darlin', pretty darlin, darlin'
Hey pretty darlin', look at me
I'm dancin' in your rain
I'm stopping up your drain
I'm climbin' 'round in your trees
Thawing out from your freeze
Swimming in your blue seas
Hoping that I don't drown
No lifeguards around
Baby it's your game and I want to play
I just want you to take me around the way
and I would celebrate it each and every day
If you would ever have me
I want you badly
I am so attracted
You got me distracted
Would you love me dearly
I'm not thinking clearly
I just want you near me
when the world is dreary
Hey pretty darlin', pretty darlin', darlin'

We All Got Blues
02:02
|
|||
You told me things were rough
Yeah, the dog left you and your wife died
and she took the pickup too
I might've got some of the details wrong
But I know that you've been down so long
it aint funny
We all got blues
We all got greens and reds
You told me times were tough
When the car broke down and your daughter got pregnant
And you found out that her boyfriend's name
was Dennis
We all got blues
We all got greens and reds
So let's make yellows

Normal Love
03:39
|
|||
Normal love is beautiful.
It's something I would frame on the wall
But I don't reckon I will ever get to have normal love at all
'Cause normal love is reserved for normal people
That's what I've been told
And all I've got is psychotic strangulation in my soul
Normal love is something I can't have
It makes me mad
Try as I might it's not in my grasp
The madcap laughs
I see you
Arms around your lover
walking 'round without a care
effortless
Are you happy
'cause it seems that way
I watch your public displays of caress
Normal love - it displays itself shamelessly
I've gone so long without affection - it's distressing
No normal love is gonna happen to me
This I can feel
It is to you, but to me it's not real
And that's the deal
Every song I write is a ripoff
Every lyric plagarized
There's an incompleteness in my soul
Like I'm halfway paralyzed
I can't win the girl of my dreams
or save the factory
I'm no movie hero
I'm just me

Die Alone
04:43
|
|||
When you die, all your children will look over you
and your spouse will hold your wrinkled hand
or so they say, but I
I don't know what I am going to do
but I can be sure that my life won't end that way
I will never start a family
That's the sort of thing I can't condone
I will live my life an anomaly
Thankfully I'm gonna die alone
How do you 9-to-5 with kids and wives
and ever more unhappy lives
Every day it's no surprise
Just bigger beer guts and thicker thighs
That young girl you loved, that old lady you hate
They're the same person, that's your fate
There's no such thing as diapers dry
How do you manage to get by?
I don't wanna be another worker drone
Who feeds and clothes and holds them when they cry and moan
And lets them stress me into strokes or kidney stones
Thankfully I'm gonna die alone
Everybody's telling me I need to settle down
"You need a car, you need a house, you need a plot of ground
Children are so precious. They give joy everyday."
Well pardon me if I don't want a 401K
What's so wrong with drunken fumbling 'round and one night stands
Going off to Vegas with your friends to split a gram
Being immature and getting in dumb fights
and going to the strip club because it's Tuesday night
but when you die
all your children will look over you
and your spouse will hold your wrinkled hand
Forget all that
Born with nothing, die with nothing
spend it in between
There will be no eulogy given at the scene
There will be mourners, there will be no God
just me in a burlap sack where no one finds it odd
Not even a gravestone marking my remains
No date of birth, no date of death
No shirts with crying stains
Happy to be gone but mostly glad that I was here
and I did it how I wanted
without agony or fear
I got to eat all the ice cream
I never paid the last bill on my phone
I'm glad I got no family to pay it when I'm dead
because thankfully I'm gonna die alone
I got so many memories I could write a book
No better life a human ever known
and you could disagree, but it's not a tragedy
They'll say hey that stupid bastard died
alone

When I think about you I get sticky
I get sticky for you all the time
Sticky at the thought of being with you
Sticky when I think you could be mine
When I think about you I get sticky
Sticky every minute of the day
Sticky when I think about holding you
And if you stuck to me that would be okay
When I think about you I get sticky
I know that I would treat you right
I always need a moist towelette
Just to help me get through every night
When I think about you I get sticky
I get so sticky in my head
What can I do? You turn my brain to glue
I'm so sticky I get stuck to my bed
When I think about you I get sticky
I think you when we're apart
Always getting sticky when you call me
Always getting sticky in my heart
Love is a drug, a wise man sang
You slipped me one heck of a mickey
Like I woke up in a bathtub without a kidney
When I think about you I get sticky
