Love/Glove

i knew a time
when there was no rhyme
only reason in this world
and i knew a place
where you'd never see a face
only arms and legs of girls
and i was the kind of boy
who never played around
with simple little toys
but i never knew a love
that fit me like a glove
no i never knew a love
that fit me like a glove

Insomnia
02:56
|

i can't believe all the thoughts i am thinking
something about how my eyes are unblinking
crusted over with goo and starting to peel (yeah yeah)
maybe these damn infomercials will help me
try not to drink coca cola before sleep
maybe i'll buy some shit from ron popeil
insomnia! how i deplore ya
how i wish to get your form
out of my bed
insomnia! i can't control ya
(but i want you dead)
when i wake up it's already the evening
cannot remember the things i was dreaming
drool gone down my chin and soaking my pillow
wish i could fix my circadian rhythm
give me a break from my lethargy schism
instead i spend all night watching TV or willow

i was the ant, and you were the bee
you were the one taking care of me
and we were a team, and we were a pair
even when i had all my hair
the fishes below, some of them glow
some of them stare, some of them know
when i was young, i thought you would care
i thought this contraption would make you care
i spent all my time, i spent all my money
i spent it all on making you care
chorus
inst
i was the ant, you were the bee
you were the one with the melody
i had the voice and you had the bass
and i had the food on my face

Penny Dreadful
01:25
|
|||
i got a penny for your thoughts baby
i got a penny for your thoughts
why did it take you so long to hate me
why didn't it happen from the start
everything we had was wrong!
i never thought you forgave me baby
i always saw it in your eyes
trust dissipated and no more maybes
no more hello's, only goodbyes
everything we had was wrong!
i got a penny for your thoughts baby
i got a penny for your thoughts, yeah!

What a Life!
02:18
|
|||
people always told me that i was so funny
but that never made me any spending money
i'd say a few jokes with waggling eyebrow
and down all the shots of whisky my head would allow
my mother, god bless her, she tries to invite me
to all of her bridge club parties; politely
i decline, tell i'm going out with some dudes
when really i'm in bed eating mouthfuls of reheated food
oh what a life!
i'm out on my own
but i don't feel
any more grown
what a life!
i sit in this chair
in my goddamn underwear
my girlfriend won't call me, says the phone disconnected
but i know she's texting that boy from schenectady
my job is so repetitive it makes me feel dizzy
and those guys outside keep playing fucking frizbee
chorus x2
