my dewy-eyed disney bride what has tried
?swapping your blood with formaldehyde
?monsters
!whiskey-plied voices cried fratricide
Jesus don't you know that you coulda died
with the monsters what talk
monsters what walk the earth
she's got red lipstick
and a bright pair of shoes
knee high socks
what to cover a bruise
she's got an old death kit
she's been meaning to use
blood in her eyes in her eyes for you
she's got blood in her eyes for you
certain fads, stripes and plaids singles ads
run you hot and cold like a rheostat I mean a thermostat
so you bite on a towel
hope it won't hurt too bad
she says I like long walks and sci-fi movies
you're six foot tall and east coast bred
some lonely night we can get together
and I'm gonna tie your wrists with leather
and drill a tiny hole into your head
A dream of togetherness
Turned into a brighter mess
A faint sign my spoken best
Now, now
Make way for the simple hours
No finding the time its ours
A fate or it's a desire
I know
So I was the lycky one
Reading letters, not writing them
Taking pictures of anyone
I know
So let the sunshine
So let the sunshine
So let the sunshine let it come
To show us that tomorrow is eventual
We know it when the day is done
Let’s make a film, it’ll be such fun
All you need is a girl and a gun
Apparently
We’ll pump it full of art and sex
It’ll make a sure-fire success
Of you and me
And if I crumble in the face of lust
The porn, pain and prescription drugs
Will get me through
So don’t tell me I’m not thinking straight
I’m looking rough but I’m feeling great
I promise you
There’s no turning back, Ruth
It’s too much love that’s killing me
So that method stuff and your empathy
I just don’t need
Performance problems in the bed
We’ll beef up your part with blood and sweat
Just make-believe
That you’re as happy as a bird
Who thinks that “cage” is just a word
We call home
And all your existential holes
Will clog up when the camera rolls
I swear
No, there’s no turning back, Ruth
There’s no turning back, Ruth
The world’s too big and life’s too short
To act so badly out of sorts
We all grow up
But it feels like the end has come
And we’ve only just begun
To live, my love
No, there’s no turning back, Ruth
All you need’s
A girl, and a gun
Give a gun
I wanna be bigger, stronger
Drive a faster car
To take me anywhere in seconds
To take me anywhere I wanna go
And drive around a faster car
I will settle for nothing less
I will settle for nothing less
I wanna be bigger, stronger
Drive a faster car
At the touch of a button
I can go anywhere I wanna go
And drive around my faster car
I will settle for nothing less
I will settle for nothing less
I think I wanna change my attitude
I think I wanna change my attitude
I think I wanna change my ah, my atmosphere
I wanna be strong
I wanna be bigger, stronger
Drive a faster car
To take me anywhere in seconds
To take me anywhere I wanna go
And drive around my faster car
I will settle for nothing less
I will settle for nothing less
I think I need to change my attitude
I think I wanna change my attitude
I think I wanna change my ah, my atmosphere
I wanna be strong
Bigger and better
Bigger and better
Bigger and better
Bigger and better
Bigger, stronger
Drive a faster car
At the touch of a button
I can go anywhere I wanna go
She had something to confess to
But you don’t have the time so
Look the other way
You will wait until it’s over
To reveal what you’d never shown her
Too little much too late
Too long trying to resist it
You’ve just gone and missed it
It’s escaped your world
Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I don’t want you to adore me
Don’t want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I’ll do it on my own
I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I’ve made a big mistake
Too long trying to resist it
You’ve just gone and missed it
It’s escaped your world
Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I don’t want you to adore me
Don’t want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I’ll do it on my own
I’ll do it on my own
