Oh Calm Down!
As if you're the only one to ever lay awake, or feel anxiety?
Or to check every nook and cranny of your house and of your mind?
No one forced me to live my life in fear,
But when it came that day I wasn't prepared.
They put their head through the sunroof...
rolled down the window...
I can't believe what I saw!

We will find you walking down the street.
When it comes to masculinity, we have no sympathy.
And, if you have a bare face then you'll see a bare fanny.
Because we love beards.

I often dream of a vast ocean of orange juice
But my dreams are my only source
Of interaction with those succulent navels
Because of apples
I often fantasize of peeling their skin off
And grinding their flesh to a mealy pulp
I'll pour the remnants into the toilet
That's where they belong
We will march to their factories
And burn them to a crispy, golden, flaky crust
They will feel our wrath for the injustice they cultivate

Oh, you
You’ve got the skeleton
And gal, I’ve got the heart
I saw you dreamin’ through
The distant mirage of my love
And yet I feel just like a loathsome creep
Oh me, I don’t know you
Except in my romance
I enjoy misogyny
As much as the next guy
But please don’t ever run away, hey!
Oh, woe woe
I saw a mockingbird just the other day
That reminded me of you and now I’m blue
Yes, I understand I’m a little chauvinistic
That’s an exquisite bit of info, won’t you say?
I’ll kiss your feet as your kicking in my face
How about that?
Ain’t it love?
It’s so grand!
But sometimes I get this feeling that something
Just doesn’t work
Maybe I’m better off living this curse?
Without you life is one big hurt
But maybe that’s how things really are?
Honestly I’m being such a fool
You really love me
Oh you’ve got the skeleton
And gal I’ve got the heart
(Please believe me when I tell you!)
Gal, I’ve got the heart

Darling where did I go wrong?
I’m sorry if I was a prick
Yes, I know there’s no excuse
If you want me to leave then I’ll go
If wishes were fishes
Then I’d be with you
I gouged out your heart
And trampled it and burned it alive
I can’t begin to say
How much I’m sorry
Darling, how did it come to this?
Drinking myself to an early grave
Where’s the bright young man that stood
At the altar next to you?
I slept with other women like a plague (It was bubonic)
But what I thought I wanted was a mistake (Did somebody say, ‘steak?’)
I got a lot of tail (hippity hoppity)
And I drank a lot of gin (A whole river full of gin)
But darling what I really want now is you!
Why, why, why, why, why (let me back)

Since day one I've been a squeamish dreg,
But how was I supposed to feel when they talked about eggs?
Three years later there were three different kinds of sex,
But this one turned white as a ghost.
Now all I want our Beethoven fun facts,
Abstract discussions of suspensions and such.
But they keep me on this pedestal,
I thought I paid for Music History!
RISK, CASTRATION

VICE, SACRIFICE

Beautiful Brains

Your plump juicy brain is a glorious golden angel
Rising above the metropolis
Your new home, your playground of dreams
Your tentacles explore every avenue
I am so proud of you, even though you've flown away
So very far from the school where we used to play
Nowadays a cesspool haze
My house and mind are in decay
The magic you do never ever ceases to amaze me
You're building a future into paradise
Such a world would be so nice
So why must it fill me with envy
Where did my fire go, all my dreams that no one knows
I'm watching the sun rise just to set again
I don't believe life is a race, but I wanna see you in outerspace

Some folks like thick sunscreen
On pretty boys in lifeguard chairs.
But I need a warm sweater
It will keep me from drowning here.
Others prefer clear tan lines
On pretty girls in the beach sand.
But I avoid such crude nudity,
In my marshmallow land.
Where I will bundle up, in my basement I will hide
From hot angst in the summertime.
People tell me that I've lost touch, but my secrets they don't know:
You come to me daily in my snow globe.
