1.Girls Kiss Girls
I could move better if you would drop that beat
And had a different heart something that tasted sweet.
Back at the house the party's loud
They're trading shots of dirty scotch off her stomach
In a slow exchanged monologue
These looks catch me bitter and clean, a fix for something sweet
(She whispers)
I want your tongue in my mouth
Her hand on the small of my back
She says, 'I know this place where we can go
My boyfriend's in back'
Back at the house the party's loud
They're trading shots of dirty scotch off her stomach
In a slow exchanged monologue till these look catch me
Till these looks come clean whisper something sweet
2.Glass Depth Mood
So you're ambitious and I want to hear all about it
The way I step and move efforts coming
To everything is clear everything is new
Robots with camera eyes they move side to side
Please tip your bartender, I'm drunk and paralyzed
(Just kidding)
I spilled my drink, lights wash a sea of pink
I'll die a lush, I'll die alone, I'll crash the car
On my way home in a prodigious mess
Channel 5 broadcasting
Oh God, let these piano keys smother me
Under these laser lights cite
Our romantic right to except and exclude
And you memorize all those starlit eyes
With their glass depth mood and our romantic rights
Almost spill our drinks, lights wash a sea of pink
I'll die a lush, I'll die alone, I'll crash the car
On my way home in a prodigious mess channel 5 broadcasting
Oh God, let these piano keys smother me
You're kinda pretty if you move right
It's all in the side to side
If I give you what you want will you leave me alone?
3.Burn Me Up Like A Wax-Kissed Letter
I don't need another lover, I got my hands all dirty covered,
dry heat, swallow me under, or burn it up like a wax-kissed
letter.
I saw the gleam in your suitor tonight it goes... red ribbon
rope
entwined. 3 piece and busy people walk around with sharpened
needles,
I keep my 45's in the drawer. I met you for supper on a dirt
porch mom and pop store, well you caught me some charlatan hussy
heading out the door. I play it over and over again it goes....
So come on , come on, pretty girls in the magazine cut it out.
So come on, come on, as the gasoline keeps burning out.
I saw the gleam in your suitor tonight it goes...
'Oh Charlatan, does what she can'
I got to leave but I want to drive, it goes...
'Oh Charlatan, say where and when'
Red ribbon rope entwined.
Yeah! We're d.e.a.d. dead. Like a taunt something she said/leave
me
cherry red.
4.A Crush Is A Crush
Scene swept along in a rush
Shudder to worry enough I guess a crush is a crush
You said your heart was a map
That I fold to fit paper bats and guide with my hand along a
cloud sky
As we crease in half she starts to laugh
We attract to attach
I know you think it's mean
Maybe I should come clean wasn't suppose to be a sing-a-long
Tsk, tsk, tsk, I'm not the one here shaking their bones
But if I can I'll be the last one shaking their bones
I guess a crush is a crush, boys and girls in the sheets
Your eyeliner is better suited on me
Fits so jealous and sleek
Dust it off, no prints on me
Somehow you got to help me out now
'Cause right now I shaking bones
5.Black Maria
Skin like ice in the snow, cheeks turn cold
But it looks so, so hot they pull you out stop
Pardon, it's VIP for you notoriety I left you out of this room
Ya, I'm addicted too, there's something we can do
But you've been made, it's time to get out of here soon
Black Maria was it all that you wanted
Would you twine us in diamonds to keep light tightly woven?
How did it feel as it fell like confetti?
(Buy in)
All that you needed, could you see your reflection in Maria?
$9.99 for you than it comes with this Gucci bag
We drove all night and were looking to meet some guys in the
band
Pass up, pass on what you can and I can barely stand
We drove all night with bloodshot eyes
I'm ready to shake some hands
Crème de la crème and bon ton companions
Black Maria was all that I wanted
6.Upper East Side
I'm in love, trust fund, I feel there's something you need
And you need just something I know that kind of look
When you talk to me at least make it slow
So come talk to me, come talk to me
Well, you wore our T-shirt outside the Faint show
You're looking good boy, I how, how you do
So come talk to me
I like where this could go
You're talking sweet to me
That harlot's faking
If you're a proper lady
I like where this could go
I'm in love, I'm in love with the South Side
That girl is set Upper East Side
When I feel and I feel that starlet thigh
That girl is straight Upper East Side
I'm on the Upper East Side
You said I get off at 9
If you could meet me on the corner of Fifteenth and Divide
I'll show
7.La Di Da
Weekends look up from the ground, is this my sophomore sound?
Come, keep breathing, tell me oh, just what you want to do
With all these empty bottles of NyQuil and all your problems
'Cause your clean nose got some bad blow but you're okay
Strawberry lips do pre-tell
Sign the card, 'Sweetie, get well'
And come, keep breathing
Tell me oh, just how I want it
It's just I feel, it's just I feel okay
It's how I do, it's how I do when you're away but don't tell
'Cause I'm a hard sell so don't tell I'm okay
La, di, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
I'm catching lightening on my sheets, dialing your digits
You saw me on my vaca, how could I forget
It's okay, I.D. me, I'm joking, ya catch me on my cell
(What a filth)
As those hips tend to fell
Sign the car, 'Meet me in the hotel'
And come, keep breathing
Tell me oh, just how you want it
And if you need the weekend take it, I could get away
If you think that we could make it
If our view would sway
All the subtext in the lobby says to pick and choose who settles
down
So come, keep breathing
Tell me oh, just how you want it
La, di, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, dah
La, di, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, dah
8.Sugar Champagne
Champagne tongue, smoked out lungs
Prada kisses on your 1 a.m.
Creepy crawls, slipped iron velvet glove
Blushed cheeks, expense it to the club
These London bridges are falling down
All that sugar and champagne keeps me awake
I took my doe to the woods to sing a river song
Dressed her in all these pearls
Asked her to play along
Sean, what do you want from me
I'm covered in silk and bills gold light, what does it mean?
My London bridges are coming down with skeleton wire
And if you see my doe with a smile on her face
In the chalk white quintessence I could taste
All that sugar and champagne keeps me awake
9.It All Started In The Hall
It all started in the hall as a cover up
A white flash as a call interrupted us all
Now my head is blank and efforts are fake
You said I could draw you in any color or shape
The refused record played loud
Blended and poured out all down the hall where the party split
out
Smear the black of our make up to black bars and shake up
If this is lying give me crystal lenses on crystal islands
'Cause I don't like the crowds when the gather around
Close the door, muffle the sound and take what I found
When we do it it's electric, our body's electric
When we move, when we move, when I move it's electric
She said, I never like that boy
I never liked that look in his eye
The way he smiled in the gleam of the blue sky
As it came falling down
I never liked the way you lean against a locker
And all that little conversation that you offer
And the way that you push your hair to the side
And it looks just like me and the way that you talk
10.Lucky 16
I had 16 wives over 15 years
14 went blind when the 13th appeared
And the 12th couldn't stay in her lane
God bless her soul
11 had a date
Caught late with a westbound train
And woe is me
I need a new girl
I had 10 cheap wives over empty plots
Number 9 loved the flask
And the 8th never got
(My 7 lives)
6, 5, 4 were the triplets drowned
Meeting 3, 2, 1
Where they sunk in the ground
And woe is me
I need a new girl
'Cause she's dead
I put two bullets in her head
And she's at the bottom
Of the well
11.Dear, This Is Desperate
Trading glances, the attendant's valet
A lush he's so charming, oh
London lighting, sweeping over me
She says, 'Pay attention'
He puts the slip in the drawer, waive down the cabby what for
Please escort through the alley, no need for a score
The tabloid's running the front page
The double speak became all the same
I slip in better decor to a more comfort allure
These harlequin hobbies have a pallet for more
Who are they, who am I tonight
Believe all you hear all that gossip is so right
Won't you lean onto my drunken slur
And listen to these decadent
Words or get up and get out
Come close as I rehearse
What did they say?
They said nothing to quell the crowd
But they caught me reading from the page
You're all the same, the verse is coming undone
She read the note from the chest
Split the was on the bed
Finally some follow through
In the mirror it read
Keep calm
Oh girl, everything is fine, it's fine
When I get to the last stop
I'm moving too fast
Single passenger views were all that I had
So keep calm oh girl and everything will taste just like wine
Keep calm
I can't, can't keep calm
12.Martini Elegance
As they grab your hand
It's numbing through the lights of the lobby
As I follow you up
Where they dancing is like needles and pins on a heartbeat
All dapper gentlemen see this damsel
Through the window with such conservatism
Our martini elegance is preferred
Let's fill our bodies
I should of known by your look that you'd want more
It's all irrelevance that you applaud for
Caught in circumstance, I couldn't follow through
I couldn't follow through
I can tell by your look you're in the right mood
And your elegance, who does it lie to?
Caught in circumstance, I couldn't follow through
I couldn't follow through
As the shades fall down, I'm elite
She's discrete, risque and petite
This town gives and takes shaking hands
I unbutton my cuffs and our palms start to touch
All dapper gentlemen are modest in the process
And dashing or so I suspect
Our martini elegance is preferred
Let's fill our bodies
I know you got it bad
It's glamorous baby, to be where it's at
It's so glamorous, I know you're holding back
I need it, I need it in me
So hold me down with needles and pins
Oh baby
La, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Glamorous so
