Taste

Drop me off at Jenny’s house
I hear she’s got the booze
and that’s a hot commodity
for redneck punks
like you and me
stuck between
the city and the country
No I don’t play country
I play rock n’ roll
First kiss of life on my lips
first taste of death on my tongue
Quick stop at the corner store
cause’ I’m fresh outta cigs and cold beer
if you wonder where I got off track
I suggest that you look here
I had my first kiss piss drunk
sophomore year
Nothing to fear no?
First kiss of life on my lips
first taste of death on my tongue

Pith
02:22
|

|
I woke to find my front door open wide
in a rain that fell for days
and I realize that I’m helpless
cause’ I’m harmless
I watched as my halls took on water
and bit my tongue
wailing for a savior’s favor
and I realize that my weakness ain’t no virtue to me now
toughen up kid - you don’t measure up to today’s standards
and now I’m breathing in water
she’s spitting me out
and spinning me around
kicking the piss outta me
yeah cutting the pith off me
like a lemon and squeezing me out
and when the water clears I ask myself
is this the same house? (is it the same house?)

Hollow Heart

When I get home
and I see you
on the front lawn
with your girlfriend
in that t-shirt
from the Green Day tour that happened long before you were even born
I see she cut the sleeves off it
I guess it didn’t fit you
quite like it used to
funny how things change
how you could stay in one place but you’ll never stay the same
still I’m gonna wrap my wrist around your hollow heart
yeah I’m gonna wrap my wrist around your hollow heart

I’m praying for no baby
We’re praying for no baby
Well, what I thought was a crow on a branch, was just a bunch of leaves man
and that pleased me well
but if you fly away
now if you find a way
if you wanna wait
if you walk away
if you fly away…
I’m praying for no baby
We’re praying for no baby

Learning to Dance
03:31
|

|
I don’t know what you want me say
but if I’m telling you the truth
you’re making me mad
yet but still
I don’t want this song to end
cause’ I’m still learning to dance with you
hot thoughts
missed steps
lock my
hands in
your thought
might lie
you know what I want
but I don’t know how to move
with you

Good Manners
04:35
|

|
Yeah you know it feels like
good manners get exhausting lately
Does it ever feel like that for you?
Does it ever?
Cause’ if it finds it’s way to me
I don’t know if I could really see
what’s happening behind these obvious screens in your eyes
in your eyes
It doesn’t feel right. No.
Cause’ if it finds it’s way to me
I don’t know if I could really see
what’s happening behind these obvious screens in your eyes
in your eyes

I could knock my teeth together
I could. I could. I could. I could.
I cannot hold down my dinner
I can. I can. I cannot get out
Could knock it out
You could bring your friends together
we could have a lovely time together
I could sleep all day. Forever.
I could lick these wounds forever
I could. I could. I could. I could.
I could lick these wounds forever
Yeah? So what?!
You could bring your friends together
we could have a lovely time together
I could sleep all day. Forever.
I could lick these wounds forever
I could. I could. I could. I could.
I could lick these wounds forever

I Watch the Fool
03:46

What does the clown do when the whole world’s become a carnival?
How do you make someone laugh when the whole world is a joke?
I watch the fool.
How do you make someone laugh? How do you make someone cry?
I’d say it’s a lot easier to do the latter
chutes in ladders
snakes in skies
How do you make someone believe that there’s a God up in the sky
and how do you make someone see that there’s water at the end of the hill
and it’s turning around and around
How do you make someone laugh when the whole world is a joke?
I watch the fool.
