Falling on a door knob
Oh, my sweet hearts, how I’ve disappointed you / My sin is greater than what you accuse me of / I’m undergoing chemotherapy / I know what you think you see / Will silence from my true love kill my pride? / Before my soul unhinges from this body? / Soon I’ll be no good for no good reason / I know what you think you see / Lay down get up go to work lay down get up / I know you are but I am not confused / I know, I know what, I know what you think you see
Eternal regrets of non-cowboy
When I died nothing happened / Principles, I can’t find mine / Never did I float somewhere / My body was not see through / Teenage boys laughed and hit me / Principles, I can’t find mine
Reluctant boy believes he breathes water
There were rumors he had grown so old / There were those who believed he had died / Then there was this case of the missing sisters / He would swim into our harbor and take the children / I love my rage more than my fate / I could catch that fish but I’d chew the bait / There’s this woman she was changed by him / She was taken when she was a girl /She learned all these things, methods for prevention / I will be the one to carry them on for her protection
UFO in my backyard!
I had a dream I was sleeping in the movies / The girl next to me was ten years younger / And we became friends that’s all that I remember / I saw a film of a UFO from space / I was a growing boy inside the house where it takes place / It fell in the yard so hard dirt flew in my face / A dog was the pilot; through my canopy he pried the government lied
Selected lines from:
Visitor, Funeral Director, Main Character (all played by same actor)
How can you speak to me when you weren’t there? / How would you know? / Say goodbye to your mother, she’ll know you’re there, by ruffling the papers she’s working on in front of her / How could you have a feeling about something when you weren’t there? / How would you know? / How many times you question me so effortlessly? / Try not to make a commotion just yet / you’ll make my job to process you much easier / I have tried to be forthcoming / How can you speak to me when you weren’t there? / How would you know?
Light is clean
What happened to your transmitter? / You were called on to protect them / Now you wish to turn them over / You think they are conspirators / When I had buckles in my pose / They put knuckles on my nose / Though my lake is dry it grows / Cause my ache supply elbows / What happened to your transmitter? / You were called on to protect them / You have misread my objective / Light is clean and not subjective / Women and children first / And the imps they bring for pets will let lizard thirst for lizard begets no time to find notes for this chord / Shaded by a mysterious gourd
I hope my time is coming
I spent it all / The breath of my blood / I spent it all / The hard of my skeleton / I spent it all / The breath of my blood / I hope my time is coming
Pigeon soup
Did you try to be a wonderful nothing? / Pigeon soup for lunch, I’ve got a fever / And I love you enough, but nothing like Jesus / Did you become an awful something? / I am coming down / I’ve been infected and I guess I have changed, because it bothers me now
Mental Telepathy
A war began in the spring on our soil all the men moved to it / I went shopping for some camouflage pants for a multiuse knife / He filled the entire sky with dirt / And made a crude demonstration of his refusal for inharmony laughing at my jaundice person atrophied from my salubrious dreams / In the summer in the kitchen making boiled baby / I just know that in a past life he was my superior / I am sending you this message with my mental telepathy / I am sending you this message with my mental telepathy
Space Vacation
The eating thing there is no doubt will eat my lot from inside out / Carelessly laid among monkeys who drivel, words with no orbit where chickens are little / I’m an isotope man and I got a plan I’ll get to later / Pass by things much too big for a frigerator / Bells horns and sirens and I stopped to touch the greenery / Stuck out my finger and I poked a hole in the scenery / Fell off the road, feel like the dead with a mule and a cat and a belly full of bread / Because today we laughed and played there’s something to surmise, yesterday was doomsday but today we’re still alive
Notes Regarding Autonomy
How long can you wave from the balcony? / It's dark, the music has grown weary / Tethered to a past century / Tears are making your vision bleary / But you could go, but you can go too / Jetsam is waiting / Shut your eyes, step into space / Stars as they recede glow so faintly red / On top of the water they shimmer / By the time we see them, they're dead / And yet they won't ever grow dimmer / But you could go, but you can go too / Jet packs are waiting / Shut your eyes, step into space
Epilogue
I saw the stars fall dead to the ground and set fire to this arena / I am moving now, at the speed of sound, and I can smell gardenias / I saw the stars fall dead to the ground, thank you my love thank you / I lost my teeth my canines and molars you my love are the queen of the solars
