fore!
bells in the wells in their lost eyes
blood comes in them all that love
become become so unfoolish
in a house, howlin' moon
play out! play out!
in a house, in a house
in the yard, be proud!
blood.... blood....has seen an arrow, bound
quiver.... quiver.... silence comes around
for the tee-off, fore!

hello from the south
morning.... hello from the south
the weather is terribly easy on the skin
morning.... wherever you are
the kitchen, the metro, the office, the car
i throw stones into the lake
they're begging, for goodness' sake
are you up in the fire escape
admiring the view
it suits you, it suits you
& sometimes i'm quite sure
that it suits me, too
green trees come in the spring
green trees cover everything
and i'm high, i'm high on a mountain
and you're high, you're high on human beings, whoa
morning, it's 10 o'clock
i'm wondering if you been 10 times 'round the block
morning, wherever you are
the kitchen, the metro, the office, a mountain, the newsstand, a stranger, the studio, the car...
are you up in the penthouse admiring the view
it suits you, it suits you
and sometimes i'm quite sure
that it suits me, too

The Weakling
In the weary winter on the coldest street
From the weakling fingers to the wildest meat
Would you say I love you to the thin blue air?
Or descend a mountain like a hungry bear?
In the chill of every morning it keeps you warm
& if you pull on the side of the melody, it keeps its form
& I cling, cling to the ceiling
Cling, cling to the ceiling
Cling, cling to the ceiling
From the icest ice cream with the smoothest spoon
I devour sweetness by the light of the moon
With the thinnest arms I still can hold you up
In the wee hours I take from the fullest cup
With the willest will I try to tell you so
But there’s nothing I can do if you already know
I could descend a mountain like a hungry bear
But the weakling’s closer to the lion’s share

drinking at a party
(drinking at a party)
& watching people starving themselves
no meat on their bones
no cellular phones
the happiest people you know
got one change of clothes
and anything goes
is it good enough for you?
then good enough will do
is it good enough for you?
(drinking at a party... wishing i was happy)

bullet train
we were good
but it just don't play
worked hard, anyway
wild horses couldn't pull me away
(it's a long wait)
tuesday and a bullet train
tuesday and a bullet train
tuesday and a bullet train
(gotta get away)
it sticks, sticks, sticks inside of you
and it sticks, sticks, sticks in me
i came here as a diamond
& i leave in misery
(we were good!)

& some may fall out
been waiting awhile for been waiting awhile for
sun say-un say-un sunset oh
been waiting awhile for (from behind a cloud for)
a fancy light, so i settle under it
some may punch an eye out
& some wear hellos
in a way-way we all
hate rock & roll
been waiting awhile for been waiting awhile for
sun say-un say i'll follow (allo)
been waiting awhile for, give in in awhile for
"allo hello hello hello hello," oh

mission from god
remember when we crashed that car
i said i thought you went too far
i didn’t want to go but you made me
& you & jimmy drank a lot
& the christians all said you ought not
do what you do to a lady
& i played the part
of a broken heart
cause i was on a mission
on a mission from god
and in the wake of all of that
is when your god stepped up to bat
you gave me some books to amaze me
and you and jimmy prayed a lot
and the christians all said you ought
to do what you do to the natives
& i played the part
of the purest heart
cause we were on a mission
sure enough our brown-skinned brothers
worshipped in the sun
you gave them some verses and a daisy
they thought you were fuckin’ crazy
on a mission from god

crashing all those cars
crazy, but i must inform u
when you're someone's baby, you'll want to ignore me, won't you, ah

bones
when my hands curl up from moving fire
and I can’t hold out
i make a pile
of bones
the bison, drove out for human desires
and skulls in thousands
a pyramid pile
bones
hands up & arms out
move in tighter

warm people
break I’m breakin’ a little at a time
wish i didn’t do it, but i’m part of the crime
i’m boohoo boohoo aching inside
& it all comes out on you, you (you, you)
i’m lame in the brain, i’m a little insane
scaramouche, scaramouche, will ya do the fandango?
listen to your mother, tell her that you love her
listen to each other (listen to each other)
i’m boohoo, boohoo aching inside
i’m boohoo, boohoo aching inside
i’m boohoo, boohoo aching inside
and it all comes out on you
i’ll huff, i’ll puff,
i’ll blow your house down
i’ll huff, i’ll puff,
i’ll blow your house down
men in a line, they walk in time
they got haircuts
this car’s gonna take us (is it gonna take us?)
all the way out to las vegas
thinking of you & i can’t stop my head from spinning
out
is it gonna take us, (will it ever take us)?
is it gonna save us (will it ever save us)?
i’m boohoo boohoo aching inside
and it all comes out on you
i got a plan
i will use both my hands
i’ll build a fire
to warm
and they will see it from space
and they will know what we got
we got warm people
warm people
