1.Fluff
a woman alone
a bottle of 1980 barbara
with a pack of export lights
her thoughts half nude
seems allright when she's here
seems allright when she's away
no longer does she fall
fast and furiously in love
no longer does she fall
fast and hopelessly in love
darwin and evan
she loves'em both
only they don't know that
for once in her life
she feels very beautiful
seems allright when she's here
seems allright when she's away
no longer does she fall
fast and furiously in love
no longer does she fall
fast and hopelessly in love
for the world to see
'i'm in new york, i'm in paris
and I'm learning 'bout me'
2.She's A Butterfly
when i close my eyes i see
her sitting on the sofas edge
spooning sugar in her tea
and everything makes sense
she hasn't anything to prove
and so little to explain
only one who get's my jokes
and all the points in between
she's a butterfly she said
paperthin and she don't care
disapears without a word
hope it doesn't take to long
and i hope it doesn't take to long
3.Anticipation
she sits alone in her fantasy
her lover she can never touch
just a black rose in a basement
she's looking, lookin for a crutch
running up and down the stairs
in anticipation
she sits alone in her fantasy
her lover she can never touch
so many stare at her insecure
is it no secret anymore?
just a black rose in a basement
she's looking, lookin for a crutch
running up and down the stairs
in anticipation
missing days and didn't mind
in anticipation
anticipation
4.Filling Up The Hole
well, i'm part of the boom
born into a legoland
i don't really have needs
but do it all the same
now i'm part of the bloom
and it makes me drunk
and i steal it away
i'm not gonna bleed for that
filling up my fifth umbrella
with any kind of any liqueur
with the brand new model
in record player
filling up the hole in my life
can somebody help me
please
5.Nincompoop
now you look at youself
with your cruel eyes
and you don't like what you see
you don't like what you are
and your smile is a crime
because you know
how true it is
that everything else was too important
and you never said, that you love her
and now she makes you feel
you ever could
what it was, what it was
is simply a good thing in yor life
what it was, what it was
probably
you ain't surprised
to find out
you need her more than ever
don't wanna say to her face
'i'm gonna change my atitude
because you know
you hate yourself
like no one else when you lie
don't want to feel like that again
don't want to feel like that again
what it was, what it was
is simply a good thing in yor life
what it was, what it was
6.Emma
you've got troubles
at the place where you work
and in the circle of your friends
oh, they would never see
they think what they want
it ain't that much
and you can't stand the way they act
maybe we're so much the same
fell asleep in front of the tv eye
while you longing for
a better place to go
i thought you have it easier
'cause everybody falls in love with you
everybody wants you to know
tell me why did you start it
why did you start the thing with me
if you need no one so close
you don't really have to go that far
you don't really have to hide
yourself in a shell
7.Psychoday
psychoday
with baloons in the trees
like memories in my thoughts
throw a wep all over me
psychoday
and i exactly feel
like the bottles all around
and i blow circles in the air
i know that i run away
a swear it's the last time
i won't pretend anything
and sometimes i blurt it out
i try so hard
to get you off my mind
and i'm not in love
and i nearly believe it
psychoday
desguise myself again
slip in the streets
the city's a party
i try so hard
to get you off my mind
and i'm not in love
and i nearly believe it
8.Homegirl
zebras are smokin
in fuckin cold water
we jaunted along the beach
in a strange kind a way
he said 'girl you lookin bugged'
she said 'I'm bugged, always buggin'
he said 'girl you lookin bugged'
she said 'I'm bugged, always buggin'
uh uh uh uh uh
strangefruit
uh uh uh uh uh
we stopped for a passing panter
to make sure that we was safe
and we checked some pay phones
for left over some change
she said 'I bet you ain't got my problems'
he said 'oh, I bet I don't'
she said 'I bet you ain't got my problems'
he said 'oh, I bet I don't'
uh uh uh uh uh
strangefruit
uh uh uh uh uh
I used to laugh with you
now all I do is cry
and I just wanna say

we started to graze
at the sidewalk cafe
I fished in my pocket
for the last tabacco dinner
9.We Use To Fall, Kitty
she said
'my name is kitty
and i've got to sell
dreams and a pocket full of lies
dreams and a pocket full of lies'
she said
'my name is kitty
and i've got to sell
dreams and a pocket full of lies
look at the sun
with yor eyes closed
and let me be
your nightmare now'
'hi, it's kitty
i'm here again
the crack in the ceiling
of your room
take me in your arms
just for today
and just for one more time'
we use to fall . . .
she said
'now i'm here
to while away our time
let's roll along the floor
i'm your creep but anyway
throw your arms around me'
'my name is kitty
and i've got to sell
dreams and a pocket full of lies
love me any minute
when you're with me
and catch me before i fall'
we use to fall . . .
together
10.Take Me As I Am
take me as i am
take me even if the time is wrong
take me as i am
take me even if the place is wrong
so what if i fly
so what if i fly
so what if i fly
take me as i am
take me even if the love is gone

take me as i am
take me even if i can not come

11.Lovebugs
between dancin' legs
and stumblin' feet
i need you so bad
so bad - so bad
sick of myself
in this crowd
i need you so bad
so bad - so bad
we're just lovebugs in a corner
just lovebugs in a corner
that steal away
maybe i'm affraid
of lettin' go
but it's simply not the time
we take our coats
we rob the fridge
and then we steal away
don't want to fall
in love with you again
but just can't let it be
so weak - so weak
don't want to fall
in love with you again
but just can't let it be
so weak - so weak
we're just lovebugs in a corner
just lovebugs in a corner
that steal away
sick of myself
sick of myself in this crowd
12.If I Ever Was A Stone In Your Shoe
you wrap myself
'round your fingers
'round your legs
and i didn't realise
but thats o.k. with me
grimace at me
and make me wish
for that we could stay
in that lumpy bed
if i ever was
a stone in your shoe
if i ever was
a stone in your shoe
i guess it was o.k. with you
we don't talk big
just promise each other
lots of crap
and float away a bit
thats o.k. with me
now you let me down
and i'm just waiting
for something to happen
so come around again
if i ever was
a stone in your shoe
if i ever was
a stone in your shoe
i guess it was o.k. with you
