Life As A Baby 02:32
lyrics
buy track
When you are born it is difficult You better grow up or face life as a baby When you go to school you make some friends They like you, you like to share pencils When severe pain worsens It’s time to change but you can’t, it is difficult When day turns to night It might be your last so have fun, you’ll enjoy your time When slime’s dark and your life is Just hiccups and puke, it’s not a success When you are born it is difficult You better grow up or face life as a baby When it’s the future you’re not there Only alive people you don’t even know

I glimpsed my reflection In one of those shoe mirrors She was buying a dress Seventy-seven ninety-nine I saw myself twice I saw myself twice I glimpsed my reflection In one of those shoe mirrors She was buying a dress Seventy-seven ninety-nine I glimpsed my reflection In one of those shoe mirrors She was buying a dress Seventy-seven ninety-nine I saw myself twice I saw myself twice I saw myself twice I saved myself twice Once as me A dunce, that’s me I saw myself twice I saved myself twice Once as me A dunce, that’s me I glimpsed my reflection In one of those shoe mirrors She was buying a dress Seventy-seven ninety-nine Sedated tiger Sedated tiger Sedated tiger Sedated tiger

Hiker's Coat 02:14
lyrics

Walking along in a hiker's coat That's frayed around the sleeves and seams In a hiker's coat! In a hiker's coat! In a hiker's coat! In a hiker's coat! Walking along in a hiker's coat That's frayed around the sleeves and seams Why I never got to know you Why you never knew me Waiting for a bus Waiting for a bus Waiting for a bus It's a metaphor Walking along in a hiker's coat That's frayed around the sleeves and seams Walking along in a hiker's coat, In a hiker's coat! It's been too long, you walked away Intrigue turned to dismay Waiting for eggs to boil What could I have with them? Lost my head, lost my head Lost my head, lost my head Lost my head, lost my head Lost my head, lost my head Walking along in a hiker's coat That's frayed around the sleeves and seams

What’s it like over there? People happy, making stews How do I get over there? You cannot, It’s too late World’s gone mad, hasn’t it? Not sure ‘bout that, not my prob Going back wild again They and you, they’re both the same Am I cool? I’ve just lobbed a crow Into outer space Is that cool? Is that cool? Is that cool? Is that cool? Am I cool? I plant sand I eat crayons, I shush babes Is that cool? Is that cool? Is that cool? Is that cool? How much longer will this take? Do I have to? Months? Years? People pulling my sides That’s not nice, George, am I Right? How much longer will this take? Do I have to? Months? years? People pulling my sides That’s not nice, George, am I Right?

I suck my thumb And dream a nightmare Of jammed landing gear Detuned radios blare But there’s nothing out there But there’s nothing out there Blackness spins Smash the chair Straight through like It’s not there Drops of blood Carpet care Lampshade stained Fuggy air Blackness spins Smash the chair Straight through like It’s not there Drops of blood Carpet care Lampshade stained Fuggy air [Guitar solo] I suck my thumb And dream a nightmare Of jammed landing gear Detuned radios blare But there’s nothing out there But there’s nothing out there Blackness spins Smash the chair Straight through like It’s not there Drops of blood Carpet care Lampshade stained Fuggy air Blackness spins Smash the chair Straight through like It’s not there Drops of blood Carpet care Lampshade stained Fuggy air

Crumbly Raymond 01:41
lyrics

Raymond Fragile Bussed to the cinema To snort through a reboot Wednesday afternoon When browsing the lists I missed Raymond Fragile He’s at the wrong address No one close to ask The phone has no bar So he went the caff, so he went the caff So he went to a caff, pour his coffee on his bread Pour his coffee on his bread, pour his coffee on his bread

Gravel In Bits 02:44
lyrics
buy track
Gravel in bits happens everyday Bread’s going green and its just the way Pot holes creating a vibrant spray Super soaking at a special rate Tumbling cheeses to clear a path Give the paramedics a good laugh Don’t risk a biscuit, you’ll choke to death Crumbs coming out with your final breath We fear the dreary and dread the dull Darling tonight you look wonderful Let’s light a candle and melt the goo Starting a fire indoors, lulling you Crispy triangles with crumbly sides Harsh wheaty matrix that clogs the pipes Frightening prices with sudden hikes Brighter and spicier, now with spikes I smoked a tab and powdered my hair, living carefree with a sense of flair

Clinging To The Rail 02:56

Is there anyone out there? i'm looking for the detached from reality, bald and brain Knowing that the kitchen has cling flim And that the bathroom has a spider Kick me down the basement stairs Beat me, better me, arrange my piles I'm begging for a beating Kick me down a flight of stairs I'm clinging to the rail

Beakless Dumpling 02:16

My middle has come out The pool is full of louts A murmur of a cloud A-morphing into clowns Turn that smile upside down My eyes are crosses now The crows my bosses now The raven craves my bones I am but a beakless dumpling Dropped into this nest as a joke [Drum solo] Dropped into.. this nest as a joke Dropped into Dropped into.. this nest as a joke Dropped into.. this nest as a joke Found a fudgy dough ball Seeping syrup in the thatch Reception very cool A quiet comes crashing down I am but a beakless dumpling Dropped into this nest as a joke

Countless Limbs All Hidden 02:38

Barter brings no gain Kitten cuddles in tender play Barter brings no gain Kitten cuddles in tender play A saint and followers strive to seal the gates of heaven A chaste ceremony unfolds with modest gestures Barter brings no gain Kitten cuddles in tender play Barter brings no gain Kitten cuddles in tender play Folks distance, spurning floral tokens I discern countless limbs, all hidden They retract from my reach, they retract, give up They retract from my reach, they retract, give up They retract from my reach, they retract, give up They retract from my reach, they retract, give up
