HAPPY FUCKIN' VALENTINES
(Stage Banter)

 

TRISTESSA

pledge your faith
thy heart rebreaks
struggle to return
blurry mind
so hypnotized
fast enough to move

wonder where you are
tristessa

soul takes soul as eye take eye
i will wait for you

what you believe you'll wish to receive
won't believe in who, you

hang on to your life
tristessa

i love you too
surely i do
i love you too
surely i do
surely i do
surely i do
no, no, no

did you ever wake up
and find yourself alone
did you ever wake up far from home

what you believe you'll wish to receive
won't believe in who

tristessa
tristessa

THERE IT GOES

there it goes
playing with my heart again
i don't know when
i'm gonna come up for air
for you now, again
for you now
for you now

and the way you look at me
makes me happy inside
knowing all the while
i can't hide

come and go
wasting my years
i was born to fear
that there's something in the air
for you now, again
for you now
for you now

and the way you look at me
makes me happy inside
knowing all the while
i can't hide

when you've thought to come back
would you take me home?
when you've thought come back
all alone
all alone

there it goes
playing with my heart again
i don't know when
i'm gonna come up for air
for you now, again
for you now
for you now

and the way look at me
makes me happy inside
knowing all the while i can't hide

when you've thought to come back
could you take me home?
when you've thought to come back
all alone
all alone

 

WHIT YOU

low, low, so low with you
go, go, i'll go with you
with you

take, take me somewhere
wake me, dream somewhere

and you're peelin' back your eyes
some disguise
trouble you just can't hide
and you're feeling so low, so

i'll wait with you
i'll wait with you

So true when you lie
For you, Blue

Right or wrong?
I belong right or wrong

Hey Blue, where'd you run to now?

Stay with me for a while

Just stay with me for a while

ROCKET

Bleed in your own light
Dream of your own life
I miss me
I miss everything I'll never be
And on, and on

I torch my soul to show
The world that I am pure
Deep inside my heart
No more lies

A crown of horns
An image formed deformed
The mark I've borne
A mark of scorn to you

Consume my love, devour my hate
Only powers my escape
The moon is out, the stars invite
I think I'll leave tonight

So soon I'll find myself alone
To relax and fade away
Do you know what's coming down
Do you know I couldn't stay free?

I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free free
Free of those voices inside me
I shall be free
I shall be free

VENUS IN FUR
(cover dei Velvet Underground)

shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
whiplash girlchild in the dark
comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

downy sins of streetlight fancies
chase the costumes she shall wear
ermine furs adorn the imperious
severin, severin awaits you there

i am tired, i am weary
i could sleep for a thousand years
a thousand dreams that would awake me
different colors made of tears

kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
shiny leather in the dark
tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

severin, severin, speak so slightly
severin, down on your bended knee
taste the whip, in love not given lightly
taste the whip, now plead for me

i am tired, i am weary
i could sleep for a thousand years
a thousand dreams that would awake me
different colors made of tears

shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
whiplash girlchild in the dark
severin, your servant comes in bells, please don't forsake him
strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

 

 

WNUR INTERVIEW
(radio 88)

 

 

AND FROM THE WESTSIDE...

 

 

GIRL CALLED SANDOZ
(Cover degli Animal)

Well I met a girl called Sandoz
And she taught me many many things
Good things, very good things
Sweet things

I met her on a Sunday morning
It was hot though the snow lay on the ground
Strange things, very strange things
My mind has wings

Sandoz, Sandoz
Will you tell me "No?"
Sandoz, Sandoz
Will you tell me why?
We could all learn something from your mind

She's very old yet many think she's young
One kiss from her and you know your time has come
Good times for all time
Sandoz

THE JOKER
(Cover della Steve Miller Band)

Some people call me the space cowboy
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
Cause I speak of the pompotous of love

You're the cutest thing I think I ever would see
Really love your peaches, want to shake your tree
Lovey-dovey lovey-dovey lovey-dovey all the time
Ooh, baby, I'll show you a good time

Cause I'm picker, I'm a winner
I'm a lover, And I'm a sinner
Play my music in the sun
I'm a smoker, I'm a joker
I'm a midnight toker
Sure don't want to hurt no-one

James Iha!

You're the cutest thing I think I ever would see
Really love your peaches want to shake your tree
Lovey-dovey lovey-dovey lovey-dovey all the time
Ooh, baby, I'll fuck you a good time

Cause I'm picker, I'm a winner
I'm a lover, And I'm a sinner
Play my music in the sun
I'm a smoker, I'm a joker
I'm a midnight toker
Sure don't want to hurt no-one

 

SUFFER

all that you suffer is all that you are
all that you smother is all that you are
and you're seeing, you're seeing
you're seeing who you are
what takes meaning is cleaning
the meaning of who you are

on this scene
i will dream
on this scene

all of your struggles beneath your disguise
drink from the reasons that hold you alive
to ascend from the words of desire and pain
you must rise from the mounds of desire and change

too late to discover peace of mind
too late to recover me

all you see and all you breathe and
all you cease to be
take him down your only son and
what he means to be
your dream will be
to dream with me

will you wait, yes i'll wait
i will wait for you
will you wait, yes i'll wait
i will wait for you
to cleanse your life
takes more than time
take what you want
take all of me

too late to discover peace of mind
[have no peace of mind]
too late to recover

 

 

COMING ATTRACTION

some of the things you just can't hide
if you see her tell me why [hide, hide]
why won't she come outside

if you see her tell me why [hide, hide]
why won't she come outside
want to see her born inside [hide, hide]
some of the things you just can't hide

she waits, bury me

KILL YOUR PARENTS
(Stage Banter)

 


TERRAPIN

I really love you, and I mean you,
The star above you, crystal blue
Well, oh baby, my hair's on end about you

I wouldn't see you, and I love to,
I fly above you, yes I do,
Well, oh baby my hair's on end about you

Floating, bumping, noses dodge a tooth
The fins a luminous
Fangs all 'round the clown is dark
Below the boulders hiding
All the sunlight's good for us

Cause we're the fishes, and all we do
The move about is all we do
Well oh baby my hair's on end about you

I really love you, and I mean you,
The star above you, crystal blue
Well, oh baby, my hair's on end about you
Well, oh baby, my hair's on end about you

LUNA

What moonsongs
Do you sing your babies?
What sunshine do you bring?

Who belongs
Who decides who's crazy
Who rights wrongs where others cling?

I'll sing for you
If you want me to
I'll give to you
And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

I go along
Just because I'm lazy
I go along to be with you

And those moonsongs
That you sing your babies
Will be the songs to see you through

I'll hear your song
If you want me to
I'll sing along
And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

I'm in love with you

I'M FREE
(Cover dei Who)

i'm free, i am free
and freedom tastes of reality
i'm free, i am free
and i'm waiting for you to follow me

if i told you what it takes
to reach the highest high
you'd laugh and say 'nothing's that simple'
but you've been told many times before
messiahs pointed to the door
and no one had the guts to leave the temple

i'm free, i am free
and freedom tastes of reality
i'm free, i am free
and i'm waiting for you to follow me

how can we follow?
how can we follow?

PLUME

Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, gotta play
What it is
It never was
I don't care
To give enough

My boredom has outshined the sun
It's all down low
I just want to have some
Little fun

Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, what a waste
What it is
It never was
I don't care
Or give a fuck

My boredom has outshined the sun
It's all down low
I just want to have some
Little fun

Bring me down
Bring me down

 

DISARM

Disarm you with a smile
And cut you like you want me to
Cut that little child
Inside of me and such a part of you
Ooh, the years burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my choice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who's left alone
Ooh, the years burn
Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my voice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you

 

SIVA

i spin off and lose my head
throwing stray a spark instead
gather strength down in my heel
and dig in the world i peel

way down deep beneath my heart
lies a soul that's torn apart
tell me, tell me what you're after
i just want to get there faster

i don't live, i inhale
i don't give, i unveil
don't wanna live in your misery
i don't live, i inhale

sprinkle all my kisses on your head
stars full of wishes fill our beds
she said, "i'm dead"

all this pain smothers me
like a bomb that you can't see
tell me, tell me what you're after
i just want to get there faster

i don't live, i inhale
i don't give, i unveil
i don't live, i inhale
i don't live

 

TRANSLUCENT

translucent
overdrawn
false missions
blow away
blow away
and i whisper but you can't hear
somehow i wonder
somehow you are near
i hear my heart break every day

i hear you call
and i hear you call
and i whisper when you are near
somehow i wonder
somehow you are near
i hear my heart break every day
yes, every day
every day
every day
yes, every day
i hear you call

 

NOT WORTH ASKING

Not worth asking, who I'm supposed to be
Not worth saying, seems I'm free
Not worth reaching, to anyone at all
Not worth reaching out to stop this fall
I'm on my own
Yeah, I'm on my own

Not worth being, I might already be
I just want someone to reach for me
Not worth sinkin', it's not worth diggin' down
I've been here before, and hate what I've found

It's too late, too late
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
I've gotta go so far away
It's too late, too late
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
I've gotta go so far away, so far away

Not worth asking, who I'm supposed to be
Not worth saying something, seems I'm free
Not worth reaching to anyone at all
Not worth reaching out, I'll stop this fall

But I like you just the same
You've got to know some how
That I'm the one to blame
We've come so far along
To end this destiny
You've got to know somehow

That it's too late, too late
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
I've gotta go so far away
Yeah, it's too late, too late
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
I've gotta go so far away, so far away

 

OVER YOU

SMILEY

only if you bleed
and he'll bleed
on his knees

GEEK USA

Lover lover let's pretend
We're born as innocents
Cast into the world
With apple eyes

To wish wish dangerous
My dear delirious
To try and leave
The rest of us behind

Shot full of diamonds
And a million years
The disappointed disappear
Like they were never here

Kiss kiss all of this
The hiss that we had missed
And understand what can't be understood

Sear those thoughts of me
Alone and unhappy
I never liked me anyway

If by chance
Or circumstance
We should fail
Don't be so sad

Shot full of diamonds
And a million years
The disappointed disappear
Like they were never here

In a dream
We are connected
Siamese twins
At the wrist

And then I knew we'd been forsaken
Expelled from paradise
I can't believe them
When they say that it's alright

Words can't define what I feel inside
Who needs them?
Caught with this virus of my mind
I give in to my disease, of my needs
To my disease, of my needs
She really loves to break
Her dad says its OK
She really loves to break
And give it all away
Her ma says she's afraid
What more can she fake
She really needs to break
And give herself away
She gave it all away
She gave it all away
She gave it all away
We really love the USA

 

CRUSH

you wrap your arms around
a feeling that surrounds
like liquid peppermint
just taste the drinks that she sent

and this feeling shivers down your spine
love comes in colors i can't deny
all that matters is love, love, your love

you're sleeping in your bed
just rest your weary head
maybe you shouldn't care
throw away those dreams and dare

and i wonder if it matters to me
love comes in colors i can't deny
all that shimmers is love, love, your love
your love
your love

 

C'MON

yeah, yeah, c'mon
yeah, yeah, c'mon
peel away the day
wondering what to say
yeah, yeah, c'mon

when you're feelin' real slow
and you're reelin' from the show
when you're reachin' from the floor
then you're seein' you at the door
yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah, c'mon

i can't find a day
wondering who i'll be

when you're feelin' real slow
and you're reelin' from the show
ain't lookin' for trouble, ain't lookin' to see
just want a motherfucker like you and me
c'mon
yeah

yeah

 

HELLO KITTY KAT

say hello before you say goodbye
i should go, before you make me cry
she wants to bleed every drop inside of me
but i aim to please the little girl inside of me, too

yeah, yeah
you know i hate to say
oh no, i always stay
i don't wanna be like the others please

who's sorry now
who's sorry now
if i show you how
will you let me down

slit my wrists and die a whore
love to love to love what you adore
i can give you anything, but please let me
be your everything... please

yeah, yeah
you know i hate to say
oh no, i always stay
i don't wanna be like the others please

who's sorry now
if i show you how,
will you let me down
will you let me down

who's sorry now
who's sorry now

my love is weakness
my love is oh so wrong
my love is sadness
my love is oh so strong
my teeth are razor sharp
my back is fucking strong
i'll be with you
but not for long

yeah, yeah
you know i hate to say
oh no, i always stay
i don't wanna be like the others please
who's sorry now
who's sorry now
who's sorry now
if i show you how
will you let me down
will you let me down
please let me down
please let me down

[song's over]

 

NOTHING AND EVERYTHING

hiding behind my hair today
my eyes dance with fire
the thought of living here
and the bounds i transpire
walking in this slow-motion town
i seem to think so fast

standing with your mannequin
i try to hold my breath

the grave that bears my name
transpires in a dream
i dream immortality
yet i fall in vain

cause as long as i don't breathe
i'll never be like them

standing with your mannequin
i try to hold my breath

if you go and i would stay
and you would call my name
i would cry, yes, i would cry
walking in or walking out
is the same as talking about my heart
my heart

hiding behind my hair today
wishing i was far away
walking in this slow-motion town
i seem to think so fast

standing with your mannequin
i try to hold my breath

if you go and i would stay
and you would call my name
i would cry, yes, i would cry
walking in or walking out
is the same as talking about my heart
my heart

if you go and i would stay
and you would call my name
i would cry, yes, i would cry
if you go and i would stay
you would call my name
i would die, yes, i would die
walking in or walking out
is the same as talking about my heart
my heart

 

MAYONAISE

fool enough to almost be it
cool enough to not quite see it
doomed
pick your pockets full of sorrow
and run away with me tomorrow
june

we'll try and ease the pain
but somehow we'll feel the same
well, no one knows
where our secrets go

i send a heart to all my dearies
when your life is so, so dreary
dream
i'm rumored to the straight and narrow
while the harlots of my perils
scream

and i fail
but when i can, i will
try to understand
that when i can, i will

mother weep the years i'm missing
all our time can't be given
back
shut my mouth and strike the demons
that cursed you and your reasons
out of hand and out of season
out of love and out of feeling
so bad

when i can, i will
words defy the plans
when i can, i will

fool enough to almost be it
and cool enough to not quite see it
and old enough to always feel this
always old, i'll always feel this

no more promise no more sorrow
no longer will i follow
can anybody hear me
i just want to be me
when i can, i will
try to understand
that when i can, i will

 

OUT OF FOCUS
(Cover dei Blue Cheers)

Met an angel
She spread her wings
Motherfucking angel
Over me

Don't nobody tell me what's wrong
Tell me what's wrong with me
Look out

Met a man
With magic fingers
Met a man
In my head

Don't nobody tell me what's wrong
Tell me what's wrong with me

Don't nobody tell me what's wrong
Want somebody to help us along
Want somebody
Won't somebody tell me what's wrong with me

 

OFFER UP

offer up your vanity
offer up your sanity
offer up your everything to me

come lover, come all
i love you, forever
if ever at all

 

SILVERFUCK

I hear your winter
I hear you rain
I've failed your summer ways
And I feel no pain

I hear what you want
And I feel that way
I hear what you want
And I feel that way

I hear you fade away
And I hear you crawl
I gave my life away
And I feel no pain
And I feel no pain
And I feel no pain
And I feel your pain

And she was my lover so sweet
And she was my angel
And what I've recovered of me
I put into a box underneath my bed

When you lie in your bed
And you lie to yourself
When you lie in your bed
And you lie to yourself
Lie
Lie

Bang bang you're dead hole in your head
Bang bang you're dead hole in your head
Bang bang you're dead hole in your head
Bang bang you're dead hole in your head

I hear what you want
And I feel that way
I hear what you want
And I feel that way

[Alright, this take, don't give a fuck.]

 

RUDOLPH THE RED NOISE REINDEER

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows

All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They wouldn't let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas 'Eve
Santa came to say
"Rudolph, with your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then all the others loved him
And they shouted out with glee,
"Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
You'll go down in history!
You'll go down in history!"

 

STARS FALLIN

i know this room just crumbles like a tomb
surrender to the day that i made
your stars fall in
your stars fall in

don't waste it
you're not simple

when my head swells just like a balloon
so soon i must realize
once my words were dangerous
now they gust in blasphemy
stars fall in

i've walked in search of soul complete
higher than i never want to be
come along with me

over the edge and over to the shelf
proud to be shoved and realize
what i've done confronts me whole
looking beneath to your world it sold

stars fall in
your stars fall in
your stars fall in
[ok]

 

 

GODZILLA
(Cover dei Blue Oyster Cult)

With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the splitting high tension wires down

He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the people in the center of town

Helpless people on a subway train
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them

Oh no, they say he's got to go, go go Godzilla
Oh no, they say he's got to go, go go Godzilla

Oh no, they say he's got to go, go go Godzilla
Oh no, there goes Tokyo go go Godzilla

History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men
Godzilla!

History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men
Godzilla

History shows again and again
Godzilla
History shows again and again
Godzilla

I love you, Godzilla!

 

BYE JUNE

Bye June

Bye June
I'm going to the moon

'Cause I'm waiting on this moon

Bye June

I'm wishing you're there too
I hope you make it June

Bye bye June
Hope you make it to the moon

your words will one day spite your face
and another mouth will come and take its place
it'll speak and speak and speak and sputter me dry

to the bell tower, writing songs
so i crumple this page, and rip it up

and another mouth will come and take its place
it'll speak and speak and speak and sputter me dry
i will never understand the motive drive

DAYDREAM

my daydream seems as one inside of you
though it seems hard to reach through this life
your blue and hopeless life

my heart, my sacred heart

my daydream dream
my daydream
my daydream dream
my daydream
