Ass Over Tea Kettle
02:00
|

I flipped a lid
everything went
from worse than "hell to breakfast"
I made a move
a bit too soon
I should have seen this through
now my arguments won't send,
my double sided heart won't bend
so I wrote a song
two minutes long
could've been a little longer i guess
but it doesn't matter, matter I said what I said
and I did it without you
i'm moving on to something new
I sing like I've had the worst time
honestly it's not so bad like,
I played the core out of my guitar
ass over tea kettle at a bar
but on the other hand
now even "Bill Nye Thinks We're A Band"

To: Rivers, From: Chomp

I got lost down by the river just the other day
we waded through the water just to get away
I fell a little silent just under the tide
It wasn’t long before we made it to the other side
All this water running to the sea
will sink your caution eventually
I got sick down by the river just the other day
You made it through the chorus just to hear me say
Its been just a little while, its been just a little hard to find
It took just a little time to find a fine place I find I can hide behind
All this water running to the sea
will sink your caution eventually

Idea Song
03:16

I feel like rainbows everyday,
is that what you want me to say to you?
I made it up in the living room
oh, this could have gone a thousand ways
time is cruel to the idea you don't write down,
sooner or later, you're ripping at your skin
something you only said out loud
lost best invention of the week,
a soft-spoken white boy remedy
they'll say it's all been done before,
or you don't make the sense that I had aimed for
time is cruel to the idea you don't write down,
sooner or later, you're ripping at your skin
something you only said out loud

The Last Day
03:13
|
|||
|
Before I started singing in the morning
I banished all the biters to the keep
Before i started thinking in the morning
Ya chewed off half my ear lobe in your sleep
I know these roads turn so many ways
But I keep coming back to this place
Where I talked to myself for thirty days
Until I ran out of things to say
Before I started singing in the morning
I walked around and finished every ounce
Of wounded soldiers left after the party
And burned out every lightbulb in your house
I know these roads turn so many ways
But I keep coming back to this place
Where I ran my mouth for thirty days
Until I ran clean out of things to say

Time For You
04:18
|
|||
|
I'm not scared of you
I'm just trying to do what I have to
I may have told some lies but they were all true
I'm trying to make a move without talking to you
You
I'm not scared of being wrong
I just don't know why this is taking so long
All the cars are out wasting gasoline
Sucking down the miles if you know what I mean
Mean
I need a chance to fight you
They're going hand in hand
but I can't choose
Choose
Hey Paz I haven't written lyrics for this part of the song
So there aren't words cuz I haven't written them down
Down
But I need a chance to fight you
they're going hand in hand
but I can't choose
Choose
I'm out of time for you ( X7)
I'm Out

Brian's Day
02:46

Today is Brian's day
He's taking Amy out on a date
They're gonna get a couple a drinks at a bar with me and Paz I think
Today is Brian's day
He's taking Amy out on a date
They're gonna stay out really late
catch a movie and then go back to her place
Brian won't be home tonight
Brian won't be home
Brian won't get cold tonight
No Brian won't get cold
Yesterday was Brian's day
He took Amy out on a date
They did a bit of blow in a' alley with me and Paz I know
Yesterday was Brian's day
He took Amy out on a big fat date
They stayed out pretty late
they caught a movie but did not go back to her place
Brian came home tonight
Brian came home
Brian got cold tonight
Brian got so cold
Today is Brian's day (X4)
Everybody
Today is Brian's day (X4)
Nobody

Coach

Coooooooooooooooooach
Coooooooooooooooooach
We wrote this line to serve a purpose
Nod if this fits
We'll prove some point to make it worth it
when the chorus hits
Coooooooooooooooooach
Coooooooooooooooooach
Let's try this
That chord change lifts me up inside
like my friends are callin' and they want a ride
where I know they'll listen while I hide in my eyelids
Put me in and point me to the start line
one more time
everybody told me it was fine
That chord change stays my minds made up
My friends all dig it just as much
but I played it backwards
just in case it sucks
Yeah
If there's nothing left to be told
Just pour out your heart your soul
We wrote this line to start it over
so nod if this fits
It won't be long before we're sick of it
so here's this new idea I had
Let's throw one more coach at the end
da da da da
Coooooooooooooooooach

Raining Birthdays
03:23
|
|||
|
Mama raven hit the wall
All that's left to break is news
There's probably someone I should call
But I stay outside of my shoes
On the outskirts of this town
Under a house that's upside down
It's someones Birthday I should know
It's raining birthdays I should go
I'm broken off inside my house again
like anybody i'll pretend
I'm going out into the world again
like anyone after a bitter end
I'm taking off on the autumn trail
to join the leaves seasick and dead
wear it out just to watch it fail
like anybody sick of seeing red
(assorted screaming)
