CALIFORNIA WAITING
Little Mona Lisa laying by my side
"Crimson and Clover" pullin’ overtime
Seem too close to be losin’ touch
By givin’ in, what am I givin’ up
Am I losin’ way too much
Hey
California waiting
Every little thing’s gotta be just right
Say
While you’re tryin’ to save me
Can’t I get back my lonely life
I’m goin’ so fast that I can’t slow down
It’s hard to get up when you’re spinnin’ round and round
I’d tell you the news but nothin’s changed
I’d sing you a song but they blew it away
All wrapped up in this stupid ass game
Hey
California waiting
Every little thing’s gotta be just right
Say
While you’re tryin’ to save me
Can’t I get back my lonely life
Can’t I get back my lonely life
Toss me a breath, when you hold me down,
Hot like a razor on my face
Something’s growing that don’t help me now,
Paging the doctor just in case
Low and behold, things are killing me,
Silly expectation of a dream
Girls are gonna love the way I toss my hair
Boys are gonna hate the way I seem
Day old, day old, day old
Day old, day old day old blues
Peach Christmas lights spitting German
ling,
Feels like a fast or homeless sleep
At least there’s a record that I love to play,
Dreaming about a place I’ll never see
Betty, Betty, Annie is praying,
Baby with a man like lung
Smell her crying fighting back a fever
Mad as hell give up
Dusty
and you are, dirty from chain
Lips of your kisses, are sticking like tape
Woke you at sunrise, cold as a grave
I’ll cut you some flowers, now don’t be afraid
I’m
a looking for something, just sink in my teeth without any crying
But I can’t find no place or nothing, where thrills are cheap and
love is divine
Home
by the river, tall grass and fields, pond of willow oak, we'll fall to kneel
Dusty O Dusty, decision night, don’t be so pretty, all laced up
in white
Where thrills are cheap, and loves divine
Huffman don’t take no nonsense,
He’s here to rectify
He’s got his black belt buckle
And the red man’s fire in his eye
You with your switchblade posse
I’ll get my guns from the south,
We’ll take to the yard like a cockfight
Four kicks who’s strutting now.
This party is overrated,
But there ain’t shit else to do,
She’s a lovin’ a boy from the city
I’ll be lovin’ him under my shoe
Everybody
wants to be a showman
Yeah they all got another one
Everybody thinks they got a genius
Everybody got me on the run
Sometimes I think they come here
Just so you can say that you can
And I can't get alone in my bathroom
I need to give myself a hand
Ya'll
cuh-cuh-cuh-creepin'
Creepin' underneath my skin
Fuck you and your flashbulbs
Snappin' my picture again
You drank all my whiskey
You stole all my smoke
And you're crowded all around me
Like I got nowhere to go
Eyes
are gonna roll back
I'm here to kill
Time for you to go
I'm-a-gon' spill
It ain't yo fast train
I'll be the king runnin' near the wheel
I ain't lookin' to make no deals here no
You
keep stickin' to me like a prickly porcupine
You're gettin' your information from the grocery checkout line
Are you through confessin' of your little girl obsession
'Cause I was only messin' and I had a little time
On our way, so it seems,
blooming flowers waltz before me
Rollin' numbers, passing time, got to get outside the city,
In the morning all will see, just how crazy young love can be
On our own away again, don't get down my darlin'
I'm gonna tangle my face hair, it's gonna tickle your daughter
3 o'clock and the moaning, they all cry to me,
I'll be prancin' around in my high heels, and your cherry red lipstick,
Look out your window i'm on your street
Miles away, so unclear,
almost lost it in Montana
Lets pull over, have us a choke
I love to watch you when your dancin'
I wonder if they ever dream, they would get just what we gave them
All wrapped up in 19, chasin’ stars that are fallin'
Chorus
When that train heads home,
They're gonna be so gone gone, you aint never gonna see me
Im a gone gone, you aint nothin to
me
When they shine them streets, they're gonna find our song
Chorus x2
I'm on your street , they all cry to me
HOLY ROLLER NOVOCAINE
My darling you look lovely
I’ve come to lay you down
Uncover your head and submit to me
We’ll make a joyful sound
I don’t care if you’re by yourself
Or you’re all alone when you need my help
Keep that smile on your pretty face
Cause you don’t have much I can’t take away
Chorus:
Don’t you worry baby
You won’t feel a thing
Close your eyes
Holy Roller Novocaine
Lord’s gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord’s gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
You’ll be hearin’ me comin’
But I can’t come inside
I’ll be out back in my white Cadillac
Won’t you join me for a ride
Let me take you up to the mountain top
There I’ll show all the goods I got
Don’t look back keep your eyes ahead
This could be the night that the moon goes red
Repeat Chorus
All the world is moanin’
And baby so am I
I’m just givin’ you warning
And I’m telling you why
Lord’s gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord’s gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord’s gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord’s gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Blistered
cracked and bleeding
Cold no one should know
Rain falls down a freezing
And sticking like a snow
Lingering suspicions
Screaming in my head
Lies all mixed up with omissions
Aw welcome home again
It's too late for apologies they're falling at my feet
This is just the way of the world Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
Then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well he said Fred i just killed a man
Caught him laying with my girlfriend
Now they're both dead, people can be so cold when they're dead
Calling all the neighbors
Time to make amends
Whiskey floods the table
Aw good friends 'til the end
They're making silly faces and it's tasting bitter sweet
This is
just the way of the world Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
Then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well he said Fred I just killed a man
Caught him laying with my girlfriend
Now they're both dead, people can be so cold when they're dead
He’s so the purity, a shaven and a mourning,
And standing on a pigeon toe, in his disarray
Straight in the picture pose
He’s coming around to meet you
And screaming like a battle cry, it’s more if I stay
Me and your cold, driving in the snow,
Let the good times roll, let the good times roll
Cowgirl king of the rodeo, let the good times roll,
Let the good times roll
How dare you come to me like Withnail for a favor,
Hold on not my fairy tale you’re trying to start
Take off your overcoat, you’re staying for the weekend,
And swaying like a smokey grey, a drink in the park
Good time to roll on
Salty leave, salty leave
Tell me the one about the friend you knew,
And the last good night that we toasted too.
Salty leave,
Stay for me, stay for me
We drank wine in the matinee
And the spotlight showed what I chased away
Stay for me
She saw my comb over, her hour glass body
She had problems with drinking milk
And being school tardy
She’ll loan you her toothbrush
She’ll bartend your party
Kill me, kill me
I called and I called, but I can’t get through
She said he’s on his own, but his own is you
Kill me
MOLLY'S CHAMBERS
Free- is all that she could bleed
That’s why’ll she’ll never stay
White- bare naked in the night
Just lookin’ for some play
Just another girl that wants to rule the world
Any time or place
And when she gets into your head
You know she’s there to stay
You want it
She’s got it
Molly’s Chambers gonna change your mind
She’s got your
Your pistol
Slow- She’s burnin’ in your soul
With whispers in your ear
It’s okay I’ll give it anyway
Just get me out of here
You’ll plead- you’ll get down on your knees
For just another taste
And when you think she’s let you in
That’s when she fades away
You want it
She’s got it
Molly’s Chambers gonna change your mind
She’s got your
Your pistol
Pistol of fire, pistol of fire
Pistol of fire, shattered the frame
Go hug your sister go love your sister
Go hug your sister one and the same
Aiyah where did you want to take me
Aiyah where is it you want to go Aiyah
Wrapping up the morning’s coming
Aiyah home before the rooster crows
I feel the water out in the cool grass
Down in the meadow under the tree
It’s gonna tickle you’re gonna giggle
It’s gonna tickle, tickle for free
Just
like the girlies back at corner stone,
wash my bugle boy a watching my throne
Sweet mutilation of a sold to nothing man,
Lord have mercy shake is falling through your hand
Razz the kid
because you love me im the chosen one,
these are the days to not be having no fun
I listen back to what you told me before,
just tell me where to come, Ill knock down the door.
You
know you could've been a wonder
Takin' your circus to the sky
You couldn't take it on the tight rope
No you had to take it on the side
You always like it undercover
Tucked in between your dirty sheets
But no one's even done nuttin' to ya
In between the hollers and the screams
And
I said nah nah hey hey
Another dirty bird ain't givin' out a taste
In the black of the night till the red morning light
You
got your cozy little corner
All night you're jammin' on your feet
Hangin' out just like a street sign
And put a twenty dollar trick
I hear you're blowin' like a feather
And then they rub it in your face
Oh once they've had all their fun hun
You're at the bottom of the cage
And
I said nah nah hey hey
Another dirty bird ain't giving out a taste
In the black of the night till the red morning light
And I said nah nah hey hey you're givin' all your cinnamon away
That's not right
Hey
hey another dirty bird ain't givin' out a taste
Uh hey keep on givin' away and givin' it away (givin' it away)
Hey hey you're givin' all your cinnamon away
Hey hey you're givin' all your cinnamon away
On a plane on a plane
Off to see the city girls again
Only bringing what to carry on,
So that you know I won’t be long
Dripping beards as cold as hell
And the motherfuckers gonna go to jail
Honestly I can see
The giggling virgin overlooking me
Trying to put together what to say
Although it wouldn’t matter anyway
This rememo is set for Home user it’s
personal but they need to know
I’m overdue another round,
To gain control and take me down
You’re all tied up as you should be
And I’ll be cutting out naturally
Dripping beards as cold as jail
And the motherfuckers gonna go to hell
This rememo is set for home
It’s personal but they need to know
I
used to see you every day
used to see you every day
I danced around your folk and soul
I danced to all your fucking soul
I left you with your nose bleedin
and your toes creepin around
ahhh so mundane and incomplete hand me down my pants and get me off this street
I'm passed out in your garden
I'm in a cant got off So soft
I'd pop myself in your body
id come into your party but im soft
Behind the fringe of a whiskey high
mutilating cat like eyes,
and in your nose blood decadence
you try to drag me into your bohemian dancing
you paint my fingers and you paint my toes,
you let your perfect nipple show
Slow night so long, she’s frenching out the flavour,
She’s 17 but I done went and plum forgot it
No tears are gone they’re posting on the table,
No tears are gone they’re leaving their mark behind
So far so good she’s absolutely wasted,
She’s hanging up and changing her story around
I just don’t know where leading ladies come from,
I just don’t know where they can be found
She’s opened up just like she really knows me,
I hate her face, but enjoy the company
I’ll take you home, or back to Oklahoma,
You’re not so nice, but sex sells so cheap
Rise and shine all you gold-digging mothers,
Are you too good to tango with the poor poor boys
Spiral Staircase goin' down,
Paint your body red and brown,
On our knees, we'll feast on tha sex show.
Spiral Staircase! Spiral Staircase!
Greasy haircuts, a German Chinese girl,
Is gone keep ya'll busy, tuggin' at my curl,
A get your ass together,
You better walk, walk, walk, a by walking, we cannot run!
A they all came to party, and there's four to every stall,
It gets frus-ta-ratin', a just a pissin' on this wall,
Seems like there's another story bangin',
Around every step you fake.
Spiral Staircase goin' down,
Paint your body red and brown,
On our knees, we'll feast on a sex show.
Spiral Staircase! Spiral Staircase!

Around every step you fake.
Weeds
blow tall on a broken train track
Ruth B. draws we're fixin' to get high
Maybe we'll hit the bluffs and find ourselves the same old rum
But
everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life
goes by on a Talihina sky
The
hopped up boys are lookin' for their trouble
The knocked up girls, well they've all got their share
Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time
Aha shake taper jean girl with a motel face
Aha shake bury your eyes in a secret place
Aha shake black as night on a Sunday
Cunts watch their bodies, no room for make up,
I think he’s tasted, tasted the watcher
Heartbreak knockin’ em down like the 7th grade,
Heartbreak, cigarettes and songs, with a winter’s chafe
Heartbreak keep like my daughter, and a run away
Aha shake tapered jean girl kills me
I’ll be the one to show you the way
You’ll be the one to always complain
3 in the morning come a bang, bang, bang
All out of fags and I just can’t wait
Cancel the thing that I said I’d do
I don’t feel comfortable talking to you
Unless you get that zipper fixed on my shoe
Then I’ll be in the lobby drinking for two
18, balding ,star, golden, falling, heart
look at the shaky’s what’s with the blush,
fresh off the plane in my fuzzy rush
everyone’s gathered to idolize me,
I hate the way you talk, your Japanese scream
It’s been too long since I left the shed,
You kick the bucket I’ll swing my legs
Always remember the pact that we made,
Too young to die but old is the grave
I’m gonna show the way
Dirty belly of a secret town
Cheap trick hookers that are hanging out at the bar in the Greyhound station
And the bare-chested boys are going down, another thing that the momma believes
Pack of smokes and a little bump of cocaine, help you
feel not so strange
Said old Pa, “She
don’t get off, unless somebody standing near her.”
“And she’ll shine, once she’s crossed the line, cause all tied to the
chair.”
I said, “Lay it on the ground, throw in a white noise sound, like a tranny on
a ten.”
All the bubbas got their
heads in a nod, they don’t know what they love or deserve to get
Chances are they tab their worm in a slab, doesn’t even know which fish that
he like to bite tonight, ah tonight, tonight, tonight
Ah maybe, Said old
Pa, “She don’t get off, unless somebody near her.”
“And she’ll shine, once she’s crossed the line, hands all tied to the
chair.”
I said, “Lay it on the ground, throw in a white noise sound, like a tranny on
a ten.”
Comes home on call, isn’t that peace, fingers in the dirt, and he’s spitting
out his teeth (3x)
I said, “Lay it on the ground, throw in a white noise sound, like a tranny
on a ten.”
Walking like you're stuck in velvet snow
Walking like you're stuck in velvet snow
Start in on your story and I’ll go
Walking like you’re stuck in velvet snow
Glowing ‘cause you're sweating on the
floor
Glowing ‘cause you're sweating on the floor
Dancing like you’ll never dance no more
Glowing ‘cause you're sweating on the floor
And then you go, and when you go,
You get to going way too fast, and I’m so slow
Turn out the lights, she’s coming to fight,
And then she’ll go.
Death row smoking getting to your face
Death row smoking getting to your face
Showing off your something shaved and lacy,
Death row smoking getting to your face
Little Jo, she warned me not to call
you,
Stoking that you were carrying some bad news,
Leave it up to me and I’ll just drown you,
Out into the city where you came from.
WASTED TIME
It’s your life
Don’t you let em tell you when to bat your eyes
You’re the only one who’s gonna sacrifice
Makes no difference if you’re right or wrong
Take that ride
But I want your little sister by your side
Maybe little later we can all collide
Do our livin’ like a rollin’ stone
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted
Innocent smile
Runnin’ free
Baby’s gonna give it like it used to be
Show your face
Livin’ in the shadows like you got no name
Enough to make a little girly go insane
Be my guest to let it out tonight
It’s ok
I know all about the little games you play
Shakin’ your apple right in my face
Only when you know that I’m beggin’ fort a bite
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted
Repeat Chorus x2
So won’t you show your face (show your face)
Your little apple shake (show your face)
I know the love you gave (show your face)
I know the love you take (show your face)
Repeat Chorus
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted
WICKER CHAIR
In your little white wicker chair
Unsuspicious nobody cares for you
You’re so fucked up again
You laugh at nothin’ in the pouring rain
Try to tell yourself you’re not insane
You fool, I hate you sometimes
Hey, you know it ain’t coincidental that you’re lost in place
It’s drippin’ off your face, and you’re losin’ your precious mind
Send me a postcard if you get that far
You got a couple pennies in your rusty jar
The truth you’ve been gone for awhile
It’s hard lookin’ at you when you look that way
With your one night stands and your sleep all days
Ooh you’re such a slut sometimes
Hey, you know it ain’t coincidental that you’re lost in place
It’s drippin’ off your face, and you’re losin’ your precious mind
You’re losing your mind
